TOPIC: SEEK FOR MARITAL COUNSELING FROM ABLE MEN          October Monday 21st
TEXT: Exodus 18: 13-23
KEY VERSE: Proverbs 11:14; “Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.”
If your marriage hurts, cry out, do not die in silence. There are many hurting partners who don’t want to open up due to: (1) They don’t want to disgrace their marriage partner. (2) Their carnal backslidden partners have warned them not to tell anybody their secret. (3) They think the matter will get better by self management, but they find that their situation gets worse. (4) They don’t trust anybody with their secrets. To them everybody is bad including their pastors, who may betray them. (5) They feel the matter is irreparable or their carnal partners are incorrigible, so they resign to fate. (6) They may term going for counseling as gossiping their family. (7) God will intervene at his own time, so they remain in bondage, enduring their marriage.
However God endorses counselling.
(a)Prov. 11:14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety. By going for counselling you save your marriage and your soul. (b) Prov. 24:6, For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety. In counselling you make war and defeat the problem and recover your carnal/backslidden partner. (c) Prov. 27:9 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel. Counselling will make you recover your backslidden partner; you  will become best of friends once again. (d). Prov. 20:18; Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.  Prov.15:22 Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. See it here, your marriage will be established once more. (e) Counselling will give you wisdom and wisdom is profitable to direct. Eccl. 10:10, If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct. Prov. 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. (f) Counselling will give you knowledge. Hosea4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. (g) Counselling will give you fear of the Lord in your marriage Psalms 115:13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.
Thought for the day: God has provided for healing your marriage.
Song for the day: My wife shall be a blessing, my children around my table....
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 5-6; 1 Timothy 1

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...
