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

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...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
