EXAMINE ISSUES PROPERLY BEFORE YOU DEFEND PEOPLE

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: EXAMINE ISSUES PROPERLY BEFORE YOU DEFEND PEOPLE   September Monday 21st

TEXT: Numbers 16:1-4

KEY VERSE: 1 Thessalonians 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.


In all matters that come to your knowledge, verify what you are told before you act one way or the other. May be it is your child that is misbehaving in school or in the neighbourhood, don’t say, “No, my child cannot do that.” Confirm it first. Also learn to take matters to the Lord in prayer to know the truth.  Do this so that you don’t defend iniquity and become guilty. I want you to see something in today’s devotional reading. Korah, Moses and Aaron were all Levites. Moses, Aaron and Miriam were of the same father and mother. 


Moses was the general superintendent of the people. Aaron was the high priest of the people. Mariam was a prophetess. Korah, a Levite was wondering, “Why should one man produce the people that are leading the Israelite? Why are Moses and Aaron magnifying themselves over us? No, I too want to be a priest. Why should Moses say that the high priest can only pass through the lineage of Aaron? No, I will break that order. I Korah too will become a high priest.” He and his followers in rebellion didn’t see God in all these. 


Now coming to HOREMOW, do you think all the leaders following us here know about God? Some don’t even know the spirituality that this Movement is built upon. All these testimonies, prophecies and revelations they don’t understand. That is why many of them left. With the same type of mind, see what Korah did to Dathan, Abiram and On. These three people were three mighty men who were children of Reuben, the first tribe. Normally, Reuben being the first tribe should be the one leading the congregation. What happened that they were so silent that Moses and Aaron, children of one man, took over leadership? 


He went to them and convinced them, “You are sitting here when you are supposed to be the one leading us.” These people are not godly. They are not on their way to heaven. Their names are not in the book of life. They are not seeking the glory of God, but their own glory.  Korah is the ring leader of the four rebels. He got three people to contest for leadership with Moses and was hiding behind them. They went to lobby other great men in the camp until they got 250 nobles, princes, mighty men, great men, men of renown in the congregation. 


Thought for the day: If you defend the guilty, you will not be guiltless.

Song for the day: His word is yea and amen…..

Bible reading for the day: Song of Solomon 1-3; 2 Corinthians 12

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...
