For taking your time to study remain blessed.
January Saturday 26th
TOPIC: OFFER YOURSELF BEFORE YOUR SERVICE
TEXT: Romans 12:1-2
KEY VERSE: 2Corinthians 8:5 And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.
The Christian brother or sister who desires to serve God faithfully must be born again. He or she must show clear evidence of repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus. His household and the people around him must attest to his new life and the righteousness of Christ in him. This is the only way Christian service can bring glory and honour to our Lord Jesus Christ. Serving God in sin is an aberration and disservice to His holy name. Be sanctified and serve God with a pure heart. 1Thessalonians 4:3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
Sanctification is a separate experience of grace required in someone who is already born again. A person who is already born again requires sanctification of heart or heart cleansing as a second divine touch. By this experience his heart is given a second cleansing by the blood of Christ and operation of the Holy spirit through the word of God, by which he is rendered holy and pure in heart to serve God and relate with men and women in the church and in the world unblameable. 1Thessalonians. 3:12-13 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: To the end He may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints. Pray earnestly and persistently for your sanctification which God gives to all believers who desire to serve Him committedly daily in righteousness and holiness all the days of their lives. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Thought for the day: Faithful Christian service begins with the new birth
Song for the day: It is a great thing, to serve the Lord (3x) walking in the light of God.......
Bible reading for the day: Exodus 11-12; Matthew 18:21-35
