For taking your time to study remain blessed. OBSTACLES IN THE HEAVENLY RACE MONDAY APRIL 10 TEXT: PHILIPPIANS 3:12-15 Key Verse: “Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus” Hebrews 3:1 God has called us to a high, holy and heavenly calling, so your names have been enrolled in heaven. Considering the total population of about 7 billion humans on earth, are we sure the names in the book of life is up to Five Hundred Million? We are so blessed to have our names are in the book of life. However, the Lord wants to warn you of some obstacles on the way to heaven. 1 Corinthians 9: 24-27. 24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. 25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. What are the things that withdraw people’s names from the Book of life? : (1) Unbelief: When Peter turned his eyes away from Jesus, He began to sink. The Israelite despite great things the Lord did on their way to the promise land they still disbelieve. Hebrews 3: 7-12, 4:1-3; (2) The Flesh – Galatians. 5: 16-21: The flesh is a big and mighty obstacle. If you don’t manage your flesh or body it will remove your name from the book of life; (3) The Word: Be careful with the cares of this world. 2 Timothy 4:10; (4) Family – Matthew 10: 34 -38 Do not allow the pressure from your family members to stop you from Heaven; (5) Money – 1 Timothy 6: 7-10: Remember Judas sold Jesus with 30 pieces of Silver. Do not love money more than God; (6) Satan – Matthew 4:1-11: Jesus was tempted, but He overcame, so you must also overcome Satan. 1 Peter 5: 7-8. The Lecturer tells you to lie with him so he can pass you in the examination. That is the lie of the devil. Thought of the day: Lest after I have preached to others I myself should be cast away. Song of the day: Heavenly race, I no go tire…. Bible reading for the day: 1 Samuel 4-6; Luke 12:35-59 #horemow

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
