TOPIC: DILIGENT PURSUIT FOR CHRIST'S SALVATION 
JULY MONDAY 9th
TEXT: Philippians 3:12-15
KEY VERSE: Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Philippians 2: 12
What is salvation? Salvation is the first work of grace that God has done to mankind. It is the gift of God. It came by the sacrifice of God. It is full and free. We only need to confess and forsake our sins and believe in Christ to obtain salvation. God has revealed Himself and told you all you need to be saved. Harden not your heart, but consider yourself to be privileged. The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 139:23-24, Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Examine yourself because you may be fervent in prayer and diligent in service but if any of these remain in your life, you are not ready for heaven. Every sin in your life is a hindrance to salvation and must be done away with.
Galatians 5:19-21, “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these ; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.”
Sins listed in the above texts are evidence of an unconverted soul. Lying is a common sin people take for granted yet no liar will inherit the kingdom of God. Nothing that defiles will enter there. Anger and rage will debar you from heaven. You must have control over your temperament otherwise you have foreclosed the possibility of heaven. You must be able to withstand provocation as proof of your genuine conversion. 99.9% performance or compliance is not enough. Malice, gossiping, backbiting are common sins but very harmful to the soul. These must not be found in you. Purify yourself! Immorality covers many things and is not limited to sexual immorality. It includes seductive dressing, using bad language, living a wayward life etc. and all these must be avoided. Stubbornness, disobedience and rebellion will prevent you from going to heaven. Do not harden your heart against God.
Thought for the day: Heavenly race is not for careless runners.
Song for the day: I will never, never end my journey half way 
Bible reading for the day: 
Job 40-42; Acts 15:22-41

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...

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...
