TOPIC: DENOMINATIONAL AUTHORITIES ARE SHUTTING UP THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN AGAINST MEN     November Monday 23rd

Text: Matthew 23:1-5

Key verse: Mathew 23:13: But Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.  


The spirit of denominationalism is injurious to the body of Christ. The denominational authorities work against the interest of Jesus in the Church. They are blind and carnal and yet they are the leaders. They have taken over the leadership of the church from Jesus Christ. They call their denominational church “my church.” They exercise absolute authority over the church. They stand at the door and refuse any one from taking any action against them. They make, promote and execute laws that block people of God from God. 


The Lord has given the keys of the kingdom of heaven to His chosen ministers but the denominational lords say “No, all these other ministers who have been given the grace to revive the church should not come into our church.” They are not protecting the people against infiltration of false doctrine but are rather caging them from true gospel ministers so that their eyes should not be opened to the truth, else they would lose them. The danger in this callous attitude is that they themselves are not going to heaven and their members who are stuck with them are equally blocked from going to heaven.


The Lord made it clear that His gifts upon His chosen ministers are for the benefit of every man, but the leaders will not allow their members to partake of this grace as they block them from true ministers that do not belong to their denomination. They blatantly declare to their members that “Our church does not allow prophetic revelations.” Some of them boast that no other minister outside their denomination has ever preached on their altar. Some also claim that the best ministers in the world are in their church. What a dangerous statement! This kind of church will be deprived of so many good things. 


When the Lord deposited minerals on the earth, He didn’t deposit everything in in one place. He deposited some in Europe, some in America, Asia and some in Africa. Each nation relies on the other nations to get what she lacks but which the other nation possesses. It is the same with gifts and talents. Now that they have shut the door of their church against other ministers, they will surely lack so many things that are beneficial to them. They will surely miss what the Lord is doing in various places all over the world. They have blocked their congregation from accessing the things that are essential towards making it to heaven.


Thought for the day: The gifts and talents God gives to people are for the benefit of all. 

Song for the day: Jesus only is our message

Bible reading for the day: 

Ezekiel 29-30; James 5

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...
