THE DEDICATED CHURCH
April Saturday 14th
Text: Acts 2:42-47
Key Verse: Ecclesiastes 5:1  Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.

Dedication means committing something to someone. Setting apart to someone. It is a consecration. In this instance, it means consecrating the church to God. What does it mean to dedicate a church?

1. Dedicated to God in heaven and his Son Jesus Christ. Members are committed to love of God and his service. Psalm 73:25. Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. That people that come here will love their God with all their might, and soul and mind. Matthew 22:37-38.
2. Dedicated to his word of truth, righteousness and holiness to preach and teach in this church. That this place will not give place to sin and iniquity. It shall serve as hospital for sinners. And the lord shall cause the sinners to come. 1 Timothy 3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. The truth sets free. This place shall make people free from sin and iniquity. The truth sanctifies. This place shall be purified and it shall purify all who worship there. There shall be healing and deliverance here.
3. Dedicated to brotherly love and peace and unity. The blessings of God of diverse kinds shall be found here. Psalm 133:1-3.
4. Dedicated to soul winning and rescuing the perishing John 15:16  Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. That God will gather his lost sheep into the fold through this church (John 10:16).
5. It is dedicated to judgment and justice among brethren. To rebuke erring brethren and justify the righteous (1 Corinthians 6:1-8; Deuteronomy 1:16-17). A dedicated church is a church that's promising God that we will operate in accordance with your commands without compromise (Matthew 28:18-20).
6. Dedicate to prayer and fasting for the continuous work of God. My house is the house of prayer. (Luke 19:45-46).
7. Dedicated to collect tithes and offerings (Malachi 3:9-10).
8. Dedicated to brotherly fellowship and watchfulness in readiness for the Lord's return. Hebrews 10:25.

Thought for the day: The Lord is in His Holy Temple, reverence Him in worship and service.
Song for the day: The church is matching on, the gates of hell shall not prevail
Bible reading for the day: 1 Samuel 15-16; Luke 14:25-35

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...
