For taking your time to study remain blessed. THE DUTY OF PRAYER WEDNESDAY JUNE 14 TEXT: MATTHEW 7:7-11 Key verse: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God” Philippians 4:6. Here the Lord reveals to us our duty as long as we want good things from Him for ourselves and for others. If we do so then we must engage ourselves in the duty of prayers by asking, seeking and knocking even when the circumstances look hard. Talking about the challenges of life, the Lord Jesus is saying that our faith in Him and prayer to our God will bring solution, but some cases may require fasting. This was seen among the Jews when Esther declared three days fasting and prayer and requested the Jews to fast for her. Don't expect things to work automatically, rather God expect you to ask and enquire from Him, so He can release the good things He kept for you, but if you do not ask He will still keep those good things for you. The Lord told His angels here are these blessings as you go to that man's house, that woman’s house, as you enter that church, hold the blessings, all those that open their mouth and pray and ask for blessings, hear what they ask and then release the blessing to them. The information has been given to the angels already. In case you are thinking it in your heart, angels don't know what you are thinking in your heart unless you speak out, the blessing remain in their hands. Not that God doesn't know all you are thinking in your heart or answer you, but that is in some circumstance, because even Jesus didn't pray in His heart. If He was thinking, then the words of His prayer would not have been written down. Again, His disciples would not have come and asked Him to teach them to pray, nothing would have inspired them. It's as you open your mouth to pray, the angel will come closer to hear what you are saying or asking and they release the blessing for the Lord has told them whatever you ask they should release it. Your answer to prayer is directly related to your duty of prayer. You must labour fervently in your prayers, for such was the prayer that gave Hannah answers to her prayer, even though her voice was not heard but her lips was moving. To make your holiness consistent and a blessing to others you need to add fervent prayers to it. Thought for the day: God is raising up prayer warriors for end time revival. Song for the day: Prayer is the key; Prayer is the key….. Bible reading for the day: Ezra 6-8; John 21 #horemow.

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
