TOPIC: SEEKING JESUS DILIGENTLY FOR YOUR SALVATION        
AUGUST Saturday 11th

TEXT: Matthew 7:7-8
KEY VERSE: Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; Acts 3: 19

The man who seeks shall find and this includes salvation. If you have not received, it is because you have not sought.
1. Don't say your sin is too much. The more the sin the more grace abounds (Romans 5:20). Any voice that tells you that you cannot be saved is of the devil. God is merciful. Your sin cannot be too much for the blood of Jesus to wash away. Consider the prodigal son.
2. Do not allow your position or pride to prevent you. Pride will prevent you from connecting to God and keep salvation far from you. Even God Himself is humble (Philippians 2:8). Cornelius was a high-ranking army officer yet he ignored his exalted position to seek salvation (Acts 10). Be like Nicodemus and Zaccheus who humbled themselves and obtained salvation.
3. Work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Philippians 2:12 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.
4. Seek for the heavenly city diligently as saints of old (Hebrews 11:14-16).

Lois a wife and mother was a true believer who gave birth to Eunice. Eunice also got married and gave birth to Timothy. Lois passed righteousness to daughter and grandson (2 Timothy 1:1-5). No mention is made of their husbands so we are not sure they had believing husbands. The good thing is that these women did not allow the spiritual state of their husbands, however adverse, to affect their relationship with God.  No matter how busy you are, God's grace is sufficient for you in your spiritual duty. Don't be afraid of the challenges you are having in life: a difficult husband, a stubborn child or whatever. Isaiah 41:10, “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Guide your life diligently and you shall soon be received unto glory. Psalm 73:24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.

Thought for the day: Seek first the kingdom of God and its righteousness
Song for the day: Will you be ready when Jesus comes?
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 90-92; Romans 11:1-21

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...
For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
