COME UP TO MATURITY AND STOP SEEKING HUMAN SYMPATHY UNNECESSARILY

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: COME UP TO MATURITY AND STOP SEEKING HUMAN SYMPATHY UNNECESSARILY August Monday 24th

TEXT: Acts 21:10-14

KEY VERSE: Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. 


Luke 23:26-28 26  And as they led Him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.  27  And there followed Him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented Him.  28  But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. 


In this text, they were leading innocent, mighty and powerful Jesus to Golgotha for crucifixion and His sympathizers were following and crying. How did Jesus respond? Would Jesus be looking for human sympathy when He knew clearly that this was the way His Father had planned it for Him? He knew clearly that He came into the world for this very purpose and that the Son of man had to give His life as a ransom for many. 


He knew clearly that He must do the will of His Father no matter what He had to pass through. Would He then be seeking human sympathy? Such sympathy would have weakened Him by suggesting that there were alternatives to doing the will of His Father? Of what value was such human sympathy to Him?


Come up to maturity because there are sufferings in life. There are adverse things God allows in the training of His people because of the assignment He has for them. Otherwise, you will join in criticizing the wicked people that brought up this against Jesus without full understanding. Yes, they are wicked hands indeed who should be criticized but God allowed them.  


Acts 2:23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain. 


If we should pursue them with sticks to kill them, we will be offending God. So, have this balanced understanding. Always be on the side of God on any matter. Ask Him where he stands and be on the Lord’s side. When Moses came back from the mountain he asked who was on the Lord’s side? Look for that side. Be on the Lord’s side in every matter: In the church, in the family, in the society, in the government. Everywhere be on the Lord’s side. Amen!


Thought for the day: Be on the Lord’s side always. 

Song for the day: My God is able, He’s able, I know He  is able……

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 120-123; 1 Corinthians 6

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...

My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit.

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
