TOPIC: LESSONS FROM VIRTUOUS WOMEN December Friday 27th
TEXT: 1 Samuel 25: 14-38
Key verse: 2 Samuel 20: 22 “Then the woman went unto all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and cast it out to Joab. And he blew a trumpet, and they retired from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem unto the king.”

These women manifested wisdom, resourcefulness, diligence, prudence and selflessness to achieve their seemingly impossible tasks. Emulate such virtues in your difficult situations. 

Abigail was the wife of a churlish, foolish man, Nabal who refused David’s request for hospitality in the wilderness of Paran. Then David vowed to go and wipe away his whole household. But Abigail’s prompt response prevailed on David’s anger and her family was saved. Not only that she saved her family, but afterward became the wife of king David after her husband died. What a great privilege ! Read 1Sam25:1-42. From the whole story, we discover the following virtues demonstrated by Abigail: prudence, diligence, wisdom, resourcefulness in prompt response (:18, 23); meek and quiet spirit and soft answer. (:23-25); hospitality (:18-27). “A soft answer turneth away wrath” Proverbs 15: 1

Woman of Abel: From the key verse you see how the wisdom of this “mother in Israel” saved the city of Abel from destruction in the hands of Joab and his men. The scripture says wisdom is profitable to direct. Pray and use godly wisdom on your difficult husband and God will grant your heart desires in Jesus name.

Esther also, using her resourcefulness, through prayer and her feminine virtues received favour from her difficult husband and delivered her nation from destruction Esther4:10,11, 15,16; 5:1-8; 7:1-6, 10; 8:1. Esther will forever be remembered by her statement, “If I perish I perish!”
In this wise you need to exercise wisdom like these wise women in the bible, who through wisdom and diligence, delivered nations and saved lives from the hands of the hard and foolish men and husbands, like the wise woman of Abel, Esther and Abigail.
Thought for the day: Every wise woman buildeth her house
Song for the day: When I remember His promises I shout Alleluia...
Bible reading for the day: Zechariah 4-6; Revelation 18.

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...
