TOPIC: HOLINESS OF LIFE BRINGS FAVOUR OF GOD   April Tuesday 28th
Text: Luke 1:35-38
Key verse: Luke 1: 46-47 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

Mary was declared as blessed among other women. The salutation by the angel of God does not distinguish Mary of being the best among women. She was just God’s perfect choice. Nonetheless, she possesses godly qualities that made her worthy of emulation. The Lord today wants women of such godly qualities to arise among His daughters. He wants holy daughters that should be able to portray godly qualities as Mary to this sinful world. Mary was born by sinful parents. She is a daughter of Adam and Eve. From a scriptural standpoint, it shows that Mary possesses godly qualities which made her find favour from God. She became a perfect choice of God to bring forth His Begotten Son, Jesus, because she was born again and holy woman who did not live a careless or free life. She kept herself clean and served God in holiness and righteousness. She was not exposed to immorality, not even with Joseph, the one espoused to her. She preserved herself from immoral men and did not keep bad company of friends that would have had negative influence on her life. She was not the type that would seduce the opposite sex because she was looking for husband or money. She resisted all forms of immoral enticements. This explains why God saw her as a clean and holy vessel fit for the Master’s use.

2Timothy 2:20, 21 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. She found favour with God because God saw her as a ready-made perfectly fit to bring the Saviour of Mankind into the sinful world. If you keep yourself clean and holy like Mary, you will find favour with God and He will put you to holy use. The Lord is holy and would always be attracted to holy vessels. God was attracted to Mary because of her purity and holy life. Similarly, the LORD’s favour often comes upon His righteous children that obey Him.

Thought for the day: Live holy and God will show you favour.
Song for the day: Something more than gold, something more than silver
Bible reading for the day:
2 Samuel 19-20; Luke 21:20-38

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...

January Saturday 18th TOPIC: HOW TO ATTAIN BIBLE HOLINESS TEXT: Romans 6:20-23 KEY VERSE: Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. Besides the essential knowledge of the holy life of a Christian, it is good to understand the manner and process of becoming holy before God. Holiness of life is a life that has overcome sin through the saving power of Jesus Christ. Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. It is a life that does not commit sin. 1John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for His seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. Getting this experience requires four things: 1. Know that apart from holiness, there is no alternative lifestyle for heaven. Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holin...
