TESTIMONY OF RESTITUTION TO EMPLOYER by Pastor Raymond Agbo

For taking your time to study remain blessed. 
June Friday 12th
TOPIC: TESTIMONY OF RESTITUTION TO EMPLOYER by Pastor Raymond Agbo   TEXT: Luke 15:18-20
KEY VERSE: 1Thessalonians 4:6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 

I joined Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide in Jos, Plateau State in August, 2013. I was already an ordained pastor with Living Faith Church but still a sinner. In my thirteen years in Living Faith Church, I never heard about or knew what restitution was. I came to know this in Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW). The message of restitution convicted me as a sinner who gave a false age to get employment with the First Bank of Nigeria Plc. After hearing this message, I lost my peace and could not wait to report myself to my employer. The day I was to send a mail to the headquarters in Lagos, the fear of losing my job gripped me and I could not do it. That same day, I had a revelation that rapture took place and I did not make it. When I woke up, I knew I missed the rapture because of my refusal to restitute to my organization. I had to summon courage and send a mail to them confessing my sin and disclosing my real age. I pleaded for their forgiveness.  I was invited to Lagos for questioning. After my return from Lagos, they sent me an email directing me to resign my appointment with the bank. Today, I am better off than when I was in the bank and I am grateful to God that I was asked to resign at that time. I didn’t know God had something better for me. More importantly, I have since been enjoying the peace of the Lord.  Glory be to His holy name. Hallelujah!

Lessons from Testimony:

1. Restitution is scriptural but many churches don’t teach it, probably because they don’t know the truth or they just refuse to teach the truth
2. Failure to do necessary restitution can make you to miss heaven
3. Unresolved restitution brings pain to the heart
4. Fear and shame is the greatest obstacle to restitution but these can be removed by faith in Jesus Christ
5. Since God is in it, restitution will always bring positive result at last
6. Restitution removes the constant burden and fear in your heart and makes you to enjoy the peace of God
7. Restitution is a clear message of salvation for other sinning Christians

Thought for the day: Restitution always results in a better outcome.
Song for the day: Give me grace to follow, abundant grace….
Bible reading for the day: 
Ezra 1-2; John 19:23-42

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...
