TOPIC: THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH       
OCTOBER Friday 5th
TEXT: Romans 1: 16-17
KEY VERSE: Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 4
When someone repents from sin and believes in the Lord Jesus Christ, he receives the salvation of God and becomes a new creature.  The Bible says, “Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. Old things have passed away and all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). His new relationship with God is characterized by newness of life, the fear of God, righteousness and obedience to God’s word.  He is considered a just and perfect man.
The scriptures state emphatically that the just shall live by faith. The believer in Christ Jesus, who is righteous before God, shall live, survive, thrive, triumph and overcome by faith. He shall make progress and prosper by faith. This is the emphasis of the scriptures.
The proud man and woman can never be upright in the sight of God.  The believer who is struggling to live through his personal effort is a proud person.  He does not consider God worthy of his dependence.  He would rather depend on his intellect, wisdom and power to do things.  He is a proud man and can never please God. Every believer is expected to exercise personal faith Him. While it may be expedient to seek the intercession of a spiritual mentor in prayer, the perfect will of God is that every child of His should exercise personal faith by asking Him for their needs. 
Thought for the day: Without faith it is impossible to please God
Song for the day: Only believe, Only believe, all things are possible
Bible reading for the day:
Isaiah 31-33; Philippines 1

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
