TOPIC: DO NOT FOLLOW SHADOWS BUT FOLLOW JESUS   
NOVEMBER Tuesday 6th

TEXT: Acts 5: 12-14
KEY VERSE: And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: Acts 19: 11
The shadow of Peter healed the sick. Did the shadow of John, Andrew or Paul heal the sick? Peter alone. Unique manifestation! Did the shadow of Peter keep on healing the sick indefinitely? No, it just appeared for sometimes and then ended; otherwise people will abandon Jesus and be following the shadow of Peter. They will be following shadows just as multitudes are doing today. God does not do like that. The physical destroys the spiritual, for we are spiritual and not physical. The aprons and handkerchiefs were taken from Paul to heal the sick. Were they also taken from Peter, John, Barnabas or Timothy?  From Paul alone the Holy Ghost manifested that for a definite purpose of His: to cause people to believe in Christ. Handkerchiefs and aprons were taken from Paul to the sick and they were healed, and it happened for a period and ended. That was all; it did not repeat the second time. It didn’t.
Now if this is so, Timothy who walked closely with Paul as a son to him, was he distributing handkerchiefs? Was He giving out aprons? No, because he will not take that unique miracle to become the normal way of miracle. Why is it that in the churches today, ministers are using handkerchief and aprons? And are telling their members that it will do miracles, from where did they get that teaching? “From one witness thou shalt not establish a matter, from the mouth of two or three witnesses.” Apart from Paul who again used handkerchief and apron, that you are now coming to stand upon it. Why don’t you also gather your members before the sea and say members we are crossing this sea I’m going to tell God to divide it.  The spirit that motivated that is of the devil, it’s not the spirit of Christ because that is not the normal way. “He that entereth not in through the door but cometh the other way into the house, the same is a thief and a robber.” The sheep will never hear him; he’s a thief and a robber, and that’s the devil. So, those that are distributing these handkerchiefs and aprons, promoting them, they are not doing it by the spirit of the great God, they are not, because they don’t have this Bible as their authority. But then, aren’t these handkerchiefs working miracles? Aren’t these aprons working miracles? Aren’t these holy water working miracles? They can work miracles. Is it only God that works miracle? When God sent Moses to Egypt and said, “You will throw your rod down and it shall turn to a serpent. Weren’t there people in Egypt that also threw their rods down and they also became serpents? So the fact that these aprons and handkerchiefs are working miracles does not mean that they are from God.
Thought for the day: Abstain from every appearance of evil
Song for the day: Trust and obey
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 43-45; Hebrews 3

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...
