ENTANGLEMENT WILL DISTRACT YOU IN CHRISTIAN SERVICE

For taking your time to study remain blessed.
TOPIC: ENTANGLEMENT WILL DISTRACT YOU IN CHRISTIAN SERVICE Tuesday June 2nd
Text: Philippians 2:19-23
Key verse: Philippians 2:20-21 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.
Timothy’s service was not motivated by money. Preacher, preach by faith not for money! The Lord will take care of you by faith. Do this work naturally without putting your eyes on money. Remove money from your mind and God will take care of your life. Paul was speaking about a youth named Timothy of whom he said, “I have other people with me but you are different from them. These other ones are entangled. Some of them, marriage has entangled them but Timothy you are not married; you are available twenty-four hours a day. For some, their entanglement is their children’s school fees or what they would eat. They are not fully available like you Timothy.” That is why getting a youth into this job makes it run very fast. By the time he starts thinking about marriage or having children, the work has already gone far and the work has been done worldwide. Before the children come to become stubborn, evil and wicked, the work had gone far.
If youths are brought in, this work will run. Wherever Timothy went with Paul it was a complete family because he left nothing at home. You are not the one feeding your father and mother. You are not the one paying your brother’s school fees. You are a preacher fully available for God and your family has released you. They know about it so your work is 100% commitment. Twenty-four hours a day you are available for the work. Paul said “I have no man like-minded fully available for me” and he came to Paul whose breadth was pounding because of evangelism and ministry. The work really progressed.
Even for many who claim to be ministers, their minds are not fully with God. They cannot make sacrifice. But Timothy was not like that. As a disciple, Timothy continued in the word, not just hearing but doing it. Not just studying, but practicing it. You might have been introduced to the Lord, you might have been a disciple, what you need to do is to continue in the word of God. Continue with this truth. Continue in diligent service.
Thought for the day: The God you are serving knows how to take care of your needs.
Song for the day: Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord, and he said here I am send me
Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 7-9; John 13:1-17

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...
