SEEK YOUR CHRISTIAN LEADER’S GUIDANCE AND COUNSEL

 For taking your time to study remain blessed.

Topic: SEEK YOUR CHRISTIAN LEADER’S GUIDANCE AND COUNSEL November Thursday 5th
Text: Genesis 24:1-9
Key verse: Proverbs 11:14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
Don’t allow fear to come into your heart. “I have seen a lady to marry. If I now go and tell my Pastor about it he will discourage me.” Thank God that Holiness Revival Movement is a non-denominational ministry. So, if you have seen a lady to marry in Church A or in Church B, our concern is whether or not she is born again. Is she a child of God? Is she having the properties of holiness in her life? Or if it is a man, is that man born again? He may be in that Church but different from the members of that Church because he has encountered the God of holiness. Don’t be afraid to share with the leadership in your chapter. Inform your Pastor before seeing the woman to discuss with her. There is a reason for this: You may influence a woman who is already engaged with your personality and property, with your riches and affluence, and she may be tempted to choose between two of you. That is why you need to go through your leaders. They will follow it up to know whether this person is engaged already or not. It is a sensitive matter that needs application of wisdom. Your leader will carry out the action required to verify and ensure that no one has come for her, and to prevent choosing by sight and not by the Spirit of God.
If she is in another Church, they will send to that Church and do all investigations necessary before you go to the next step through the Marriage Committee. Holiness Revival Movement has Marriage Committee in every state. So, reporting to the Marriage Committee is very important. Before you speak to the person, there will be medical tests to confirm that you are compatible and free from diseases like Ebola, HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis etc. We don’t know whether God actually led you as you said or not. Here is an innocent person who has been keeping his or her life well and God has promised to use him. Do we allow someone else with a deadly disease to come and contaminate him or her and within three years the person is dead. But, what if you claim to have faith for healing? Let that faith heal you first, then you can marry freely. So, medical tests will be required.
Thought for the day: Be guided by the Marriage Committee in your marital plans
Song for the day: Trust and obey
Bible reading for the day:
Jeremiah 40-42; Hebrews 2

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...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
