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.

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will.

They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
