TOPIC: YOU NEED JESUS TO OVERCOME THE POWER OF SIN
TEXT: Romans 7:22-25
KEY VERSE: 1John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

You need power to live the future without sin because sin can still come even though you have made up your mind not to sin again. Sin can still overpower you. There is no man who can on his own keep himself free from sin. Only Jesus can break the power of sin and Satan. 1John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Jesus died on the cross to set you free from the power of sin and Satan. So, apart from getting the old record settled, you need strength and power now for the future life so that you do not sin again, for he that is born of God does not commit sin and that power not to sin is only found in Jesus. That is why you have to come to Jesus, for as many that received Him to them gave He power to become the sons of God. Jesus is the only one that gives power to go and sin no more. That is why you have to come to Jesus to receive from Him the power not to sin anymore. Praise the Lord!

Just as you needed Jesus to escape judgment for your past sins, you also need Jesus to give you power to overcome future sins because Satan, temptations and the sinful world are still present with you. There is still the possibility of going back to your sin as a dog goes back to its vomit. To overcome the temptation to sin, you need Jesus’ Spirit and power in you. Jesus told that woman caught in adultery, “Go and sin no more.” That pronouncement is a power just as He pronounced on Peter, “Come.” That word went with power, which made Peter walk on water. So, when the Lord says “go and sin no more,” power follows that word - the power to sustain you and give you victory over sin. If any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; his evil lifestyle is gone; old things are passed away, all things become new. Praise the Lord!

Thought for the day: Come to Jesus, He will save you and give you power to overcome sin.
Song for the day: The blood of Jesus set me free, from sin and sorrow…
Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 19-20; 2 Corinthians 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...
