GOD HAS A PROGRAMME FOR EVERYBODY

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: GOD HAS A PROGRAMME FOR EVERYBODY           August Saturday 15th

TEXT: Job 23:10-14

KEY VERSE: Job 23:14 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. 


How would a child react when he sees his pregnant mother crying because she is about to give birth? Naturally, he would want to go and stop his mother from crying. He would say, “Mummy, do not cry.” But child, that cry is part of giving life to a human being. That pain is built into her, and it comes naturally with child birth. Where do you give birth without pain? It is a pronouncement of God on women. So allow her. It is her time to cry. That crying and groaning is giving her the energy to push out the child. Stopping her groaning and labour may frustrate natural delivery until she has to be taken for caesarian operation. Let her cry, for that is the normal thing to do. Learn it as you deal with your brethren, friends and family members. Learn it because God has His programme for everybody. Do not block the way of God by your human sympathy or judgment. 


In today’s reading text, Job shows high spiritual understanding in the face of great tribulations. Here is a man that suffered greatly; he lost all his children; his wealth perished and he suffered a disease like skin cancer. Yet, he said, “He who made me has a programme for my life. He is guiding me through this programme that He has appointed for me. The things He does we don’t understand for He has His own mind, and who can interfere with His mind? Who can interfere with what He allows in our lives? But one sure thing I know is that He knows the way that I take. When He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold.” (Paraphrased). 


Now, would you want to intervene in the process? Would you want to block the way of your brother’s life because you say you love him? You are always blocking the ways of God in your sister’s life because you say you love her? Do you want to prove to be more loving than God? If the Lord leaves that man’s life in your hands, can you manage it? Can you lead that man for 24 hours and pass him through the journey of life? Can you determine the events of the future and set his life in order? Can you do that? Is it not in the hands of God? Therefore, be careful!


Thought for the day: Let God run His programme unobstructed by your busybody 

Song for the day: You don’t have to worry, you don’t have to be afraid……

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 103-104; Romans 14

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...
