TOPIC: PRISCILLA’S SACRIFICE TO THE GOSPEL WORK         October Friday 18th
TEXT: Romans 16: 3-4
KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 16:19 “The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.”
She listened to Paul and did what he instructed her to do. The holy scripture of God shows how Priscilla sacrificed her house for the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ in order to reach out to others. There is a blessed reward when you obey and humble yourself to true and genuine ministers of the gospel. Priscilla understood this secret of the gospel without pretending as the Pharisees. The Pharisees build the graves of the prophets and painted them white as a way to show respect but inwardly practice deceit. They claimed that if it were their days they wouldn’t have killed the prophets of Israel as did their fathers. In other words, they would have treated the prophets nicely and with respect. By character, Pharisees are usually self-righteous people with pretending behaviours. Jesus examined their hearts and pronounced woe to them. The Pharisees on several accusations attempted to kill Jesus, the greatest of all prophets. Nonetheless, Aquila and Priscilla still remain perfect examples of obedient children of God. They demonstrated humility and supported the work of God as commended by the Apostle Paul.
Paul on behalf of Priscilla and Aquila extended a special salutation to the church of Corinth in an expression of the friendly role the two spouses played by accommodating the church in their house for the salvation of souls. Paul counted Priscilla and Aquila as worthy, righteous and faithful spouses in their service to the gospel work. He counted them worthy by mentioning their names in the Book of eternity, the Bible. Priscilla and Aquila were co-workers with Paul in the propagation of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul expressed his gratitude of Priscilla and Aquila’s commitment to the gospel work. Several scripture references show that Priscilla’s name appeared first in Paul’s letters due to her total commitment to the gospel work. At one time, Priscilla and Aquila accompanied Paul to Ephesus for gospel work.  They were well mentored by Paul, the apostle.
Thought for the day: There is a blessed reward when you obey and humble yourself to true and genuine ministers of the gospel.
Song for the day: Lord You are so good, Lord You are kind.....
Bible reading for the day:
Isaiah 65-66; 2 Thessalonians 1

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...

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
