GOD WILL NOT SPARE SIN NO MATTER WHO IS INVOLVED

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

Topic: GOD WILL NOT SPARE SIN NO MATTER WHO IS INVOLVED       October Saturday 31st

Text: 2 Samuel 24:10-17  

Key verse: Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. 


The Lord had told David not to number the people, but pride made him to do so. So God reacted: “You will suffer for that pride and since you are a leader too, sitting over people who refused to pray for you, they too will suffer with you. You are a king, but you did wickedly because of pride. God will humble you. Your nation will suffer for it.” Then David prayed and said, “God, forgive me.” The Lord said, “Saying ‘forgive me,’ ‘forgive me’ is not enough. After I have dealt with you, you will learn your lesson forever. I am going to allow fire to burn you alive so that you will learn your lesson in hard way. Tomorrow when somebody says go and show your pride, you will say get away from me!” (Paraphrased).


God told Prophet Gad, “Go and tell David I am going to cause starvation in the land. Rain will not fall well so the people will suffer famine for seven years, because of what you have done. Alternatively, I will give your enemies three months victory over the land of Israel to trample on Israel at every quarter. And as they kill the people and torment them you will be running up and down for your life for three months because you did this wickedness. The third option is that I will handle it myself and judge your land for three days. I tell you, it is not easy to correct sin. Judgment of sin is very bitter and sometimes leads to the death of many people. It will affect your family and prosterity. The soul that sinneth it shall die.


David was told that no amount of prayer and fasting could remove the repercussion of his sin. David decided not to choose famine of seven years. It would have been terrible upon Israel. Neither did he accept that his enemies should have victory over them because these were wicked men. They would be merciless in dealing with Israel. He decided to fall into the hands of God, because of His great mercies, believing that God’s anger would subside after a while. What a wise choice he made! Pray for one another. Pray for your relations. Let them not go and bring problem to that house. If your relations go to fight somewhere the people will be coming there to revenge. If your elder brother does wickedness and they see you they will attack you. Don’t allow sin in your life. It has its own repercussion. 


Thought for the day: The wages of sin is death

Song for the day: Great is Thy faithfulness

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 29-30; Titus 1

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...
