TOPIC: PRISCILLA’S STEADFASTNESS TO THE GOSPEL WORK
Friday November 15th
TEXT: 2 Timothy 4:6-8, 16-19
KEY VERSE: 2 Timothy 4: 19 “Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.”
Priscilla and Aquila continued to work with Paul, until the last day of his ministry work. Paul knew that his service in the gospel work was coming to an end and prepared to meet Jesus Christ in heaven. The scripture references above equally show Priscilla’s steadfastness with her husband in support of the gospel work with Paul, the Apostle to the end. Women in HOREMOW should stand steadfastly in the gospel work with their husbands to the end. In other words, women should be inspirers of their husbands in the gospel work as did Priscilla. God has called the women of HOREMOW to remain steadfast with their husbands in the ministry work. There should be no iota of backsliding in God’s calling. God has put leadership in your hands to support your husband in the ministry.
A story was told of a faithful woman whose husband’s arrest for the preaching of the gospel in a communist country didn’t prevent her from supporting him to the end. The husband was taken to prison and judgment passed on him to deny Jesus or faced a death sentence. As this was going on, the woman requested to see her husband in prison. The woman stood as an inspirer for her husband not to deny Jesus for the sake of upholding their wife-husband relationship. She inspired her husband not to deny Jesus in the prison, but to resist the devil to the end. As the Lord could have it happened, the woman was allowed to see her husband in the prison by the government. She was allowed to visit the prison with the view to persuade her husband to deny Jesus.
On entering the prison, she met with her husband and told him not to deny Jesus irrespective of the awaiting death penalty that was hanging against him if refused to do so. Consequently, the government ordered their execution and were eventually burnt to death. They lost their earthly lives for refusing to deny Jesus but inherited everlasting lives in Christ Jesus. All persuasions failed to convince them to deny Jesus. I pray for such a spirit of persistence to come upon you to stand for Jesus no matter what it takes in obedience to God’s word. In a similar vein, Priscilla and Aquila refused to deny Jesus. They were true disciples of Paul for over three years living in the same house.
Thought for the day: There should be no iota of backsliding in God’s calling.
Song for the day: Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord, and he said here am I send me......
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 10-12; Hebrews 11:1-19

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
