TOPIC: DO NOT DELAY IN DOING YOUR RESTITUTION
TEXT: Luke 19:5-10
KEY VERSE: Proverbs 28:13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

There are many things Satan uses against believers to prevent them from doing restitution. Often, the challenge of restitution is how to own up what you have previously denied or how to bring to the open a secret you think you have successfully covered for a long time. Another challenge is how to face the shame of exposing your terrible sin. Doing your restitution requires the followings:

1. Restitution requires courage and determination. The fear of shame and likely repercussions can discourage you. How does a wife tell the husband that two of the children are not his? How does a husband tell the barren wife he has secret wife and children outside? But with God, all things are possible. I pray that the Lord will give you the courage to do your restitution.
2. Restitution requires knowledge of doctrinal truth. If you are ignorant of the doctrine of restitution you will not consider it necessary. Ask God to open your eyes to the truth of restitution and that restitution will not constitute a blockage on your way to heaven.
3. Restitution requires personal conviction. You need the personal conviction of the Holy Spirit to do your restitution. This was the case with Zacchaeus. Ask God to speak to you and bring to your remembrance issues requiring restitution in your life. Pray that you will not be stubborn to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
4. Restitution requires divine wisdom and guidance. Wrong handling could make it to backfire. Ask for divine wisdom on how to go about your restitution. Pray that God will soften the ground for you and make you to see the favour of man.
5. Restitution requires humility. It takes a humble heart to say, "I am sorry." How many husbands can be humble enough to confess their secret sins to their wives? Ask for the spirit of humility to do your restitution. Say, "Lord take away pride and self-justification from my life."
6. Restitution requires proper counselling to achieve the best results. It also requires taking it to God in prayers before you embark on it. Pray that God will lead you to godly counsellor and that Satan will not double cross you in this matter. Pray not to fall into the hands of misleading leaders.

Thought for the day: Ask for grace to do your restitution without delay.
Song for the day: The Lord says I should not fear; He says I should not worry …
Bible reading for the day:
1 Samuel 25-26; Luke 16:19-31

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...
  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
