SUBMIT TO LEADERSHIP IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

For taking your time to study remain blessed

TOPIC: SUBMIT TO LEADERSHIP IN RIGHTEOUSNESS November  Tuesday 3rd

Text: Numbers 8:9 –11

Key verse: Numbers 3:45 Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD. 

We are serving God, but we are doing so under a leader. It is the will of God that men serve under leaders. If you think you are too great to serve under a leader, you have missed divine plan. If you lack the ability to humble yourself under leaders, you have missed it. It is either you have not come to Christ or you have lost the grace you received. Christ is humble. He was born in a humble place. Christ submitted Himself to be led by men for some time but you feel too big, too great and too high to submit. Note that going to heaven is a serious matter. 

Every minister that claims to have a ministry should consider this: How do you know that you have a ministry? Have you understood the future of the ministry? It is not in a man that walketh to direct his steps; so, be very careful that you don’t take over the direction of your ministry by yourself. You will not make it because man cannot lead himself. Allow God to lead you because there are many things about that ministry you do not know. 

The Lord is the One that has your ministry in His hand and directs it to wherever He wants. Be sensitive to know where God is leading. Be very sensitive because He is leading you on the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Where He is guiding you, He is more interested in righteousness than achievement. He is more interested in your holiness than your achievement, hence He guides you on the path of righteousness for His name’s sake. Follow Him. Be sure that you are not stubborn to divine guidance. Be sure that you seek and know His mind well and follow Him as He has told you. As we see this done in the world, so is it also required in the Church, that there should be leaders. Levites are servants in the temple serving God. To serve our God, you must be clean. Be clean in your mouth. Don’t be a liar. Be clean in your heart. Don’t hate people, keep malice or bear grudges. Do not lust after people, men or women. Do not be proud in your heart. Lies and pride should be cleansed out of your life.

Thought for the day: Serve in righteousness and purity. 

Song for the day: I will go with Jesus everywhere, no matter the roughness of the road...

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 36-37; Philemon

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...
