THE SPIRITUAL MAN IS MORE THAN A CHURCH-GOER

For taking your time to study remain blessed. 
TOPIC: THE SPIRITUAL MAN IS MORE THAN A CHURCH-GOER July Saturday 25th
TEXT: John 3:3-8
KEY VERSE: Psalm 51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. 

In today’s reading text, Jesus was talking to a religious ruler, a minister of the word of God. He told him, you are still a carnal man, a natural man, you need an experience in your life and that experience is called “born again.” The man was surprised. He asked Jesus if as big as he was He expected him to enter into his mother’s womb and be born a second time, which is practically impossible by the law of nature. Jesus said, no; it is a spiritual transformation that comes to a man through the hearing of the word, application of the word, the conviction of the word and the workings of the Holy Spirit in a supernatural way through which he experiences a changed life. By a great miracle of spiritual regeneration, he gets a new nature and starts thinking differently, God becomes sweet to his life and he regains his senses like the prodigal son. Something happened to the prodigal son that made him to go back to reconcile with his father and submit to him. That same thing has to happen to you. 

You must come back to your senses, and go back to God, and reason with God, and seek forgiveness from God. Then God also will reach out to you by embracing you, changing your clothes, taking the rags out of your dirty life, and giving you a new life of honour. All those things that you have messed up your life with: the attitude, the mannerisms, the relationships, and all the bad ways you were doing things, He will remove all from you and say, “Put a new garment upon him and put new shoes on his feet.” All these will be done to show that you are now a child, restored to fellowship with the father and fully recovered. The father said, for this my child was dead, now he is alive; he was lost, now he is found. Born again! It is then he is qualified to be in that house and join those that will be praising the father and coming to see the father. This is what is also expected of your life. 

Thought for the day: Going to church is not going to heaven. 
Song for the day: Make me holy, make me holy, make me holy oh Lord
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 44-46; Acts 25

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...
