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

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
