SUPPORT THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST. MONDAY OCTOBER 23
TEXT: LUKE 19: 12-27
Key verse: “Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be encouraged in the law of the LORD” 2 Chronicles 31:4.
Believers are encouraged on the giving of tithes and material support for the work of the Lord in the following reasons: {i} See that it is Jesus who has raised up true churches and ministries to labour for Him in the work of the gospel. {Ii} It is Jesus who has called the true ministers of the gospel and has given them various ministries to operate for His name: for the salvation of sinners and for the edification of the saints. {iii} See that it is the one Spirit of Christ that has anointed these ministers with power and given them spiritual gifts for effective service in the body of Christ. {iv} Aim at the overall success of the Church of Christ in the great commission given by The Lord. (V} See that you and your resources belong to the Lord and not to a man of God or a church, whatever role that man of God or church plays in your life. {Vi} See that Jesus is the sole provider for all true churches and ministries and for all His faithful ministers. {vii} See that you are but a custodian of His money and material resources. {Viii} See that only Him reserves the right to direct His resources in your hand to where He desires for His work and for the glory of His name. {ix} Ensure that you seek His consent at all times on where to pay your tithes and give material support; do not seek to impress or satisfy a man or a church with your material resources, but God. It is God you should seek to satisfy. {X} Know that it is not the will of God that your resources be used to support ungodly works and workers or be wasted. Be steward of your resources {xi} See that the tithe you pay to your church is done by the will and guidance of God and not by traditional bondage upon you. The belief that tithes must be paid to your immediate church or denomination is a tradition of men and not the word of God and such is responsible today for the gospel setbacks. Prayerfully, wisely and firmly avoid unscriptural traditions and the schemes set up on you. {xii} Prayerfully, wisely and firmly avoid unscriptural traditions on tithing and the schemes set up on you like; tithe card, tithe register, etc. If you aim at the overall success of the church of Christ in the great commission given by The Lord, you will support the work of the Lord in an innovative way, and others will learn from you.
Thought for the day: God loves a cheerful giver
Song for the day: Give and it shall be given unto you
Bible Reading for the day: Jeremiah 9-10; 1 Timothy 3

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
