TOPIC:  PRESENT AND FUTURE GLORY OF TRUE BELIEVERS. SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 9
TEXT:  JOHN 17:22-26
KEY VERSE: “And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are one.” (John 17:22).

Christ's final prayers for His true followers before his crucifixion contained a fervent request for believers to behold and partake in His glory. As believers on earth He has given us the glory His Father gave Him.  Christ has put in us uniqueness, honour, and majesty. He has made us incomparable to any other creature of His in this present life. Christians’ glory in present life includes the following:

(i)                              Power of son-ship.
(ii)                            Righteousness and holiness.
(iii)                           Light in the dark world.
(iv)                          Excellent knowledge of the great God.
(v)                            Fellowship with the true God.
(vi)                          Suffering on just course.
(vii)                         Protection and accompaniment of angels.
(viii)                       Anointing of the Holy Spirit
(ix)                          Love and unity among believers.
(x)                            Answer to prayers.
        
Christ has prayed that the believer may be with him where He is to behold His glory. Beholding Christ glory is being transformed into glory. The future glory of believers includes the following: Glorious resurrection body, citizenship in the new heaven and the new earth, the presence and comfort of God, the heavenly mansion, crowns, living as heavenly angels, eternal life, joys of God not yet known. As the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 2:9, “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.”

Hallelujah!

Thought for the day:  Heaven is the final home for true Christians.
Song for the day: Hallelujah is our heavenly language.
Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 15-16; 2 Corinthians 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...
