For taking your time to study remain blessed.
November Wednesday 20th
QUESTION AND ANSWER SERIES (Denominational Doctrines That Hinder True Gospel)
TEXT: Acts 4:18-20;
KEY VERSE: Galatians 1:1 “Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)”
QUESTION: Some of our General Overseers normally restrict pastors under them from teaching the whole counsel of God due to their denominational beliefs or personal interests. Now if the General Overseer or Senior Pastor does not allow you to preach holiness what will you do?
ANSWER: Your soul is not accountable to your General Overseer or General Superintendent as the case may be, but you shall render accounts unto God Almighty. Whenever and wherever there seems to be conflict between Divine expectations and demands as against denominational practices traditions of men, you are to always obey God rather than men. You are not under the General Superintendent in the sight of God as far as preaching the truth is concerned. If you have received the Spirit of truth and your eyes have been opened to the high, holy and heavenly requirements of God, then duty demands that you faithfully preach it. You are not preaching for the denominational church or the General Overseer. You are not even preaching for yourself. You are preaching for Jesus. Jesus is the way, the Truth and the life. Now that you have come across Jesus the Truth, will you go and take permission from Jesus before you preach Him? Go ahead and preach truth, righteousness and holiness.
Even if the denominational authorities suspend or chastise you, or out rightly send you out and put you on discipline and the Lord asks you not to go, just still remain there and He will release you from discipline. Go back to the temple and continue preaching. Keep on preaching the truth.  When the Pharisees and Sadducees threatened the apostles, beat them up and imprisoned them, the Lord sent an angel to deliver them, and sent them back to preach the word in that same temple of Jerusalem. Apart from the truth you do not have another gospel somewhere. Preach the truth that others can be saved through you because it is only true that makes the person free. Is that ok, if persecution becomes too much by your General Superintendent then leave the place. If they persecute you in this city, move to another city with the same gospel of righteousness, truth and holiness.
Thought for the day: Your soul is not accountable to your Overseer but to God Almighty.
Song for the day: He can never never change (3x), Jesus the same forever…
Bible reading for the day:
Ezekiel 22-23; James 2

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...
