TOPIC: GET RID OF ENVY                 
OCTOBER Sunday 21st
TEXT: Philippians 2: 1-12
KEY VERSE: Charity envieth not 1 Corinthians 13: 4
Envy is the heart’s feeling of displeasure at the success of others. The envious heart wishes that only himself should be recognized among others as being good, successful and gifted. He is not comfortable when others are praised along with him or when someone performs better than him. The envious man does not appreciate the blessings, virtues or good performance of others. The envy in him makes him criticize and condemn others and makes him to seek to block or hinder the good in people’s life. Envy is one of the impurities of the heart that must be dealt with to make the heart love and appreciate God’s gift, goodness and blessing in other people’s life. Do not pretend over this battle of envy but face it squarely for your righteousness and holiness.
God hates envy because it seeks to prevent God’s free choice and the free move of the Holy Spirit among men. The envious man fights against the gracious works of God in people’s life. You must repent from envying your fellow men. Stop envying your brothers and sisters. Give the Holy Spirit the liberty to use whoever He wills and to bless whoever He chooses to the glory of the Lord. Cry to God in prayer to save you and thoroughly purge envy out of your heart.
Live a life of love, appreciating God’s goodness and mercies in people’s lives. John the Baptist said of Jesus, “He must increase, but I must decrease” John 3: 30. This also should be your confession and prayer: “Let the will of God be done in my brother’s life and in my sister’s life. Let Jesus increase His grace, presence and power in the life of my brother and sister that they may do greater works than me.
Thought for the day: Do not pretend over this battle, but face it squarely for holiness
Song for the day: Make me holy (3x) O Lord
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 5-6; 1 Timothy 1

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, ...
