TOPIC: PEACE MAKERS AMONG BRETHREN       
AUGUST Wednesday 29th

TEXT: 1 Samuel 25: 14-31
KEY VERSE: Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Matthew 5: 9
Jesus is a peacemaker. He is the Mediator between God and man. He offered Himself as a sacrificial Lamb to reconcile man back to God. He is the Prince of peace.   Jesus demonstrated this virtue in His life and teachings during His earthly ministry. He has also called His children to the ministry of reconciliation. 2 Corinthians 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation. Jesus does not only want to promote peace among brethren in church, but also wants to raise peacemakers in Holiness Movement that will propagate the gospel of peace in this turbulent world. Peacemakers make peace through reconciliation. They are able to make peace because they have had encounter with the Prince of Peace and they possess the spirit of peace. Conflicts and disagreements are inevitable in every human setting, including the Christian assembly hence we should expect them in our units and chapters.

Characteristics Of A Peacemaker
i. He must possess the peace of God. You cannot give what you don’t have.
ii. He must have genuine love for others. It is love for others that stirs him to reconcile warring parties.
iii. He must be truthful and trustworthy and a person of integrity. It is such attributes that will make people open up to you and trust your judgment.
iv. He must possess godly wisdom to handle tricky and difficult issues.
v. He must be a good listener and have a good sense of judgment. 
vi. He should be a person of good comportment who is not easily angered so as not to stoke the fire of conflict.
vii. He must speak truth in love and carefully choose his words to avoid escalating the conflict.
viii. He must not be partial in judgment and not be a fearful person that easily submits to intimidation.
ix. His primary aim should be reconciliation and not striving to apportion blames.
x. He should be prayerful and not give up or get discouraged if the crisis lingers. 

Thought for the day: Be like your Father and promote peace in the world
Song for the day:    Peace, perfect peace
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 139-141; 1 Corinthians 10:1-13. #Horemow.

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...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
