TOPIC: TOUCH NOT THE LORD’S ANOINTED (PART 1)          October Tuesday 29th
TEXT: Numbers 16: 5-14
KEY VERSE: Numbers 16:4 “And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:” 
Korah spiced up his story with false accusations and challenged Moses on the way he led the congregation of the Lord. He alleged that Moses was proud and was trying to take too much unto himself as the leader. He was very strategic with this operation of trying to win the people to his side. He started out with the sons of Reuben because Moses was of the tribe of Levites and according to the birth order, amongst the children of Israel, Reuben was the first born and their tribe ought to have been in the leadership position. However, God changed everything by electing the Levites as the officers over His people.
Therefore, he started out by reasoning with the tribe of Reuben, to get them to think like him and gather a crowd unto himself in this evil plan against Moses and the leadership. He tried to spread this seed of evil thinking by indicating that Moses and his family (Aaron) had taken over the priesthood. He stirred up the tribe of Reuben with all these false accusations against Moses and by questioning them as to what they intended to do about the situation. Korah had an agenda; he was trying hard to stir up division amongst the people, a move that will scatter the congregation of God's people.
These people who were precious unto the Lord had been righteous, godly and were led by God Himself. However, this man, with a dead conscience was determined to stir up a feud that will lead to the damnation of many innocent people. Beware and keep away from men (or even women) who find faults with their leaders, people who are ruled by their carnal instinct rather than following the leading of the Holy Spirit. They speak political languages and always have something to say against God’s method of ruling His people, from such, turn away!
These men accused Moses and Aaron, questioned their qualifications and skills. They boasted they would even do a better job than Moses and Aaron if they were to occupy the office of the high priest. Such men are still in the church today; they are uncircumcised in heart, and so they always reason out the ways and methods of God using carnal yardsticks.
Thought for the day: Such men as Korah, Dathan and Abiram are still in the church today
Song for the day: The Rock that never fails, Let me hide in You.......
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 25-26; 2 Timothy 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...
