TOPIC; RESTITUTION REQUIRED. SUNDAY NOVEMBER 26
TEXT: LUKE 19 :1-11
Key Verse: “And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold” Luke 19: 8.
Many believers are harbouring restitution and believe they are on their way to heaven. Restitution may be very difficult to do but pleasant and reassuring once completed. We may be born again but not following peace with all men. And if this happens the believer will never see God. “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord” Hebrews 12: 14. What permits entry into heaven is purity of heart and holiness of life. Holiness of life includes sanctification of the heart, outward holiness and complete obedience to the commandments of God. This is true holiness which leads to heaven. Holiness of heart and body are not possible for a sinner to achieve. Restitution is the pathway to peace and holiness. If you are now saved but remain in a wrong marriage, there is no heaven for you. If you borrowed school books, you must return such. If you have stolen someone’s pencil, pen, money, or anything in the past, now that you are born again, you are expected to go to those people and amend your wrong doing. It may be as little as these ones and can be as big as cheating on your spouse, stolen goods or things taken forcefully and fraudulently. Stealing from your spouse, cheating with a married man or woman and their spouse was not aware, wrong marriage, robbing, killing, etc which so ever you have done, God expect you as a believer to make your restitution. Now you are born again and you don’t have the language of sorry in your mouth, know for sure there is no heaven for you. The language of sorry should be part of your daily language. To achieve peace in your marriage you must ensure to speak the language of sorry always. If your heart is not circumcised it will be difficult to make any restitution whether past or present. Restitution is a practical way of showing you are truly born again. It makes your repentance complete. Restitution beautifies the gospel of the Lord Jesus. You must restitute all your rebellious ways to your spouse now that your heart is circumcised. Restitution brings about peace in all areas of your life. It brings complete holiness. Without restitution, your Christianity is not approved by God. Again, you must be very careful with your tongue, and must restitute every back biting. All lies must be restituted for you to make heaven.
Thought for the day: Restitution is the pathway to peace and holiness.
Song for the day: Will you be ready when the Lord shall come x2
Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 36-37; 1 Peter 3

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...
