TOPIC: EVERY BELIEVER NEEDS A SECOND TOUCH       November Monday 16th

Text: Ezekiel 36:24-29

Key verse: Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.


It is commonly known of believers that after salvation experience the heart still shows some filthiness under certain conditions and circumstances. You may not notice the filth immediately you are born again because of joy and happiness but with time, as you continue in your Christian life, you begin to have some tensions and feelings that you do not actually approve of. They are not obvious sins like fornication, drunkenness and others. These are sins that have to do with the heart. That is why God was practically saying, “My son, give Me your heart. I want to make it righteous. I want to do another operation on the heart that will make it whiter than snow.” Even among the disciples of Jesus, He noticed some kind of life that showed filths and dirt. They were children of God but self-seeking and self-promotion were manifested in them. They were not thinking of how they will glorify God. Holiness has not been achieved completely in their lives because there was a struggle within them. 


They may not act openly because of embarrassment, but inside them there was a struggle on who is better than the other.  There was a desire to make self known. God makes a man known, but you want to make yourself known, you want to announce your good works, you want people to know you are different. This shows holiness is not complete in your life. This happens to those who still have the remains of sin, adamic nature and inward pollution in them. My son bring your heart again, let me give it a second touch to make it gentle and settle down so that you will be dead to self and seek only the glory of God. Jesus Christ said, I seek not my own glory but the glory of Him that has sent me to bring you to that state that you will not be seeking your own glory.  When you seek self-glory, it shows dirt is still in your life, you are not yet clean. Sanctification is required to make holiness easy, peaceful and bright in your life.


Thought for the day: Sanctification experience makes you live a holy and peaceful life

Song for the day: Holiness is the beauty of the believer, Lord I want to be holy....

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 13-15; Hebrews 11:20-40

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 ...
