KNOW THE GOD YOU ARE SERVING – PART 2
May Monday 21st
Text: Romans 10:1-4
Key Verse: Matthew 12:50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

Idol worshippers seem wiser than children of light. They tend to have a better knowledge and understanding of their gods than the worshippers of the true God. Jesus said, “The children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.” Luke 16:8. Even though they serve a god that cannot save; a god that has eyes but cannot see; a god that has legs but cannot walk, yet they never compromise on the rules of worship. Where their god demands palm wine for libation they never offer Fanta or Coke as drink. They never offer abominations to their gods. It is not so with the children of light. Jesus says in Matthew 15:8-9 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. 9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. No wonder, as the church is growing sinners are also growing. What a paradox!

God desires that you know Him fully. The greatest delight of God is not in your riches or anointing. The greatest delight of God is not in your offering or tithe or worship. The greatest delight of God is in your knowing and understanding Him. Jeremiah 9:23-24 Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: 24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD. To fully know God may require a second touch. Many only know God at the realm of grace, not His judgment. Many know God at the realm of love for sinners, not His hatred for sin. Many only know God at the realm of how to become saved, not how to remain saved. They have not graduated from elementary knowledge of God to the secondary level. They know a bit of God, by not much. They know the truth of God, but not all. They see the way of God, but not clearly like the blind man in Mark 8:22-25. This is why you may need a second touch to see the truth of the scriptures clearly and be saved like Nicodemus (John 3), like Cornelius (Acts 10), like the Ethiopian Eunuch (Acts 8:26-31).

Thought for the day: Knowing God is more than praying in the name of Jesus.
Song for the day: I want to know you more and more JESUS
Bible reading for the day: 1 Chronicles 3-5; John 8:1-20

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...
  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
