TOPIC: SCRIPTURAL KNOWLEDGE UNRAVELS THE MYSTERIES OF GOD
TEXT: Matthew 13:10-11
KEY VERSE: Romans 16:25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began.

When the high priests were looking for false witnesses to testify against Jesus, the witnesses were not agreeing together hence the high priest said to Him, “I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God?” Jesus could not deny Himself, so He replied, “Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.” On hearing this, the high priest tore his clothes and shouted “blasphemy!” He was trying to defend God. He was saying in essence that Jesus was blaspheming against God. As far as he was concerned, he thought by crucifying Jesus he was doing God a great service. That is what ignorance can do. That is what the Bible says “Had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.” (1 Corinthians 2:8).

Had they known these hidden wisdom, this mystery; if only they were knowledgeable about it. The mystery, the word of God, was in their hands but it remained mysterious to them. Knowledge is not complete without understanding. This is why the truth of scripture is hidden to many in the church even among those occupying high ecclesiastical positions. Isaiah 29:11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed. May the word of God not remain a mystery to you because Jesus has told us saying, to us it is given to understand the mystery of the Kingdom but to them that are without all things are written in parables that hearing they may hear but would not understand, seeing they will see but would not perceive; but not you as a child of God. All the mysteries of the kingdom should be written on your fingertips; you should know them so that you would not live in ignorance. These people were ignorant hence they crucified the Lord of glory. Believe and live by all the biblical truth being taught in this movement so that ignorance does not lead you to crucify Jesus a second time through sinful behaviours.

Thought for the day: Ask God to open your eyes to the mysteries of the kingdom.
Song for the day: Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah
Bible reading for the day: Job 29-30; Acts 12

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...
