TOPIC: GOD IS CALLING YOU TO RESTORATION. SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 23
TEXT: GENESIS 35:2-4
KEY VERSE: “Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garment” (Gen 35:2).

God called Jacob to go back to Bethel. Today we will consider the purposes of this divine summon. God needed to bring Jacob up to Bethel to restore him to:

• His Holiness: God does not condone any form of iniquity (inward or outward).
• The Eternity of His Word: His word does not change. His standards of truth, righteousness and holiness are unchangeable.
• The Dreadfulness of His House: a place of His presence, honour, holiness and judgment.
• The Purpose of His House: it is the gate of heaven to humanity.

The reasons God took Jacob up to Bethel might be because (a) He had forgotten the unchangeable standard of His word (b) He would have been negligent in teaching his household or congregation the pure word of God. (c) He was unable to enforce it upon his congregation (d) He was overpowered by his congregation (e) Satan prevailed over him.
For some of the reasons above he was taken back to Bethel and restored, revived, renewed, re-envisioned and re-commissioned. Going up to Bethel the place for righteousness, holiness and commitment to God and His ways was a call to the congregation that followed Jacob as well. There, everyone saw God for himself or herself: the wives, children and servants. God would reach out to everyone personally and every one enjoyed the love of God himself or herself. Let everyone in the family or church seek to know God by himself. Study His word for yourself. The implication of this call was outlined before them.

• They were to put away the strange gods among them.
• They were to repent and be clean.
• They were to change their ungodly clothing and adornment.
• They were to put away their earrings and change their dress code from sinful one to godly one. When they did these things, they enjoyed God's presence, protection, provision, blessing, miracles and fruitfulness.

Open yourself to God as an individual, family or congregation for restoration, revival, renewal, re-envisioning and re-commissioning in Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide. Announce the call to Bethel that all churches may hear. Bring as many to Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide, God will renew them.

Thought for the day: Worship God in the beauty of holiness.
Song for the day: Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb…
Bible reading for the day: Song of Solomon 6-8; Galatians 1

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...
