LET NOT ANOINTING MAKE YOU BECOME PROUD

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: LET NOT ANOINTING MAKE YOU BECOME PROUD September Tuesday 8th

TEXT: Proverbs 16:17-19

KEY VERSE: James 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 


What about having the understanding that you are nothing? You are not looking up to yourself but to God because you realize that you are nothing without Him. God wants this spiritual understanding that you are not counting on your spiritual gifts, but on righteousness and holiness. Though I can move mountains but I do not have love, righteousness and holiness, I am nothing. Though I have power to cast out devils, though I can speak in tongues of angels, if I do not have the righteousness, charity and life of God, I am nothing. This is something you need to understand. Paul said, “That I might be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.” That is what I am looking for, not my own righteousness, or to show myself to people as a great man of God doing great work for God.   


Philippians 2:5-7 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men.


The humble man constantly reminds himself that better is the end of a thing than the beginning of it. Whatever you are achieving now may attract the compliment and commendation of both God and man but you don’t boast about it. Many have become carried away by achievement and got cast away. So, it is how it ends that matters, not how it began. The spiritual man is aware that many who were better and greater than him have fallen so he goes gently so as not to fall into the pitfall of pride. It takes humility and spiritual understanding to worship and serve God. Such a man is guided and directed by the Holy Spirit in all that he does. 


Thought for the day: Be of a humble spirit to excel in life and ministry.

Song for the day: All power, all power belongs to God….

Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 13-14; 1 Corinthians 16

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 ...
