BE LIKE-MINDED WITH CHRIST

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: BE LIKE-MINDED WITH CHRIST August Friday 28th

TEXT: Colossians 1:9-10

KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. 


My prayer for you is that you will be able to judge what is right and easily perceive the glory of God around and you. That you will have spiritual understanding and that you will understand things in the way of God. You will see things as God sees them, whether good or evil things. Job told his wife, “Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all these, Job did not sin because he had spiritual understanding. He understood in the evil things happening to him that, “He knoweth the way that I take, after he has tried me he shall bring me forth as gold.” 


This is great spiritual understanding. In this way, he was not offended against God. He was not also offended against man. Even when his wife told him, “curse God and die” he didn’t mix things up because he understood the wife in a spiritual way saying, “Oh, some foolish women who don’t have the wisdom of God speak like this.” Don’t we have bitter things on earth, don’t we eat bitter leaf? Does it kill us? With this spiritual understanding Job was excellent in his life. That was why God boasted about him. 


When king David was fleeing Jerusalem after his son Absalom conspired against him, Shimei of the household of Saul accosted him on the way, cursing and casting stones at him. David’s bodyguard Abishai, wanted to cut off his head but David restrained him. David said, “It may be that the LORD will look on mine affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.” It takes a man with the mind of God to exercise such restraint under great provocation and anticipate that it will turn out for his own good in the future. 


You too need to come to this level so that you will begin to see things in a spiritual way. If you see it so, then you will actually agree that God doesn’t make mistake. You will read the handwriting of God and praise him. Even when people curse or abuse you, you will be seeing good in it. That is a spiritual man with the mind of Christ. 


Thought for the day: To the spiritual man, every situation is under control.

Song for the day: He is able, abundantly able, to deliver……

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 136-138; 1 Corinthians 9

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...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
