TOPIC: PRAYER-ANSWERING: AN ATTRIBUTE OF GOD     
OCTOBER Saturday 20th
TEXT: Ephesians 1: 15-18
KEY VERSE: O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. Psalm 65: 2

We know that God is holy. He is merciful. He is kind and possesses many other attributes. But do you know that there is an attribute of God that is not well known to many? Since God is holy, if something gets outside the holiness of God, do you expect God to honour it? No! Because He is holy, you cannot meet Him outside holiness. That is why He said, “And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.” Mark 11:25, 26. This means you should take the holiness part of God seriously when dealing with Him, because it is His essential attribute.
There is another attribute of God which is revealed in Psalm 65:2: “O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.” This statement “Oh thou that hearest prayer,” depicts an attribute of God as one that answers or hears prayer (just as others like: “Thou that art holy”; “O Thou that art merciful;” “O Thou that art gracious,” etc.). Why should a creature want to render an attribute of God redundant? Why should the Church want to render this prayer-answering attribute of God redundant? Those Churches that render the holiness of God redundant, how are they fairing? Those individual Christians that render the holiness of God redundant, how are they standing? Then, why should you try to render the prayer-answering attribute of God redundant by not using it, by not praying? Come back and use it! As you strive for holiness, strive also for prayer. As you seek for God’s mercy, seek also for prayer; it is all of God. That is the word of God. The reason why you are not holy is because you do not understand that God is holy. Similarly, the reason why you do not pray is because you do not understand that God answers prayers. May God give you understanding of Himself for you to partake of His holiness and enjoy His answers to your prayers.
Thought for the day: As you strive for holiness, strive also for prayer
Song for the day: O yes He answers prayers
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 3-4; 2 Thessalonians 3

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...

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...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
