TOPIC: SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE ON MAKING A VOW OR PLEDGE
TEXT: Ecclesiastes 5:4-5
KEY VERSE: Psalm 76:11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

Believers are often called upon to make vows or pledges for the work of God. The vow or pledge would state how much he or she will give for the work of God within a given time. Children of God must be careful when making a vow. In addition to the reading text of today, the following scripture should guide you.

2 Corinthians 8:12-13
For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not. For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:

Take note of the following facts:

i. Do not make a vow or pledge in a rush. Ponder well before doing so.
ii. Do not commit yourself to pledging an amount which you have no ability or opportunity to redeem.
iii. Do not specify a time limit which you are uncertain of.
iv. Do not submit to force or pressure to make a vow or pledge.
v. Firmly resist vowing if you are not willing or convinced to do so.
vi. When you make a vow or pledge ensure that you redeem it, because it is a sin to vow and not redeem it.
vii. If it is applicable, let an “If” be in your promise, such as “I will give this or do this if …”
viii. In case of some accidents of life which make you sincerely incapable of redeeming your vow or pledge, contact the church and make your case known for their consideration and Spirit-guided decision.

Thought for the day: Ask for godly wisdom and spiritual guidance before making your vows.
Song for the day: O God our help in ages past, our hope for years to come...

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...

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen. If they listen to My word and reject it, let them go. Evangelize, preach My word to everybody, I am here gathering My people before My coming. If the time was not finished, would the animals have come to Noah? The time is...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
