IS YOUR NAME WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE?
April Wednesday 11th
Text: Matthew 7:21-23
Key Verse: “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:15.

It is not enough to work for God, you must walk with Him. Working for God without a relationship with Him is like studying in the university without registering your courses for the semester. No matter how hard you studied and how well you performed in the semester exams you are in for a complete carry over. The same thing applies when you labour in God's vineyard without first establishing a relationship with God. The Book of Life is the first reference point for the recognition of works and reward in heaven. Any steward whose name is missing in the Book of Life only labours in vain. To such stewards Jesus would say, “I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” About twenty-four years after God called out Abram into service (Genesis 12), his walk with God was less than perfect. He lived a life of lies and compromise. God had to let him know He is not like the small gods that are served in sin. If he wanted to receive the promise, he must live a holy and perfect life. And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. Genesis 17:1-2.

Backsliders who die in their sin have great regrets in hell. One of such is the realization that they had laboured for God in vain. “When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.”  Judas laboured as a disciple but ended his life in hell. The Bible has this to say about the closing chapter of his life: “Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus. For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry. For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.” Acts 1:16-17, 20.

Thought for the day: Forsake sin. It is the only thing that can take your name out of the Book of Life.
Song for the day: I want to live eternal life Lord save my soul
Bible reading for the day:
1Samuel 7-9; Luke 13:1-21

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...
Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
