ZEAL WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE IS NOT GOOD

 For taking your time to study remain blessed.


Topic: ZEAL WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE IS NOT GOOD November Wednesday 4th
Text: Acts 10:1-6:
Key verse: Proverbs 19:2 Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good.

In today’s devotional text, we understand that Cornelius was a devout, generous and prayerful man, who feared God with his entire house. Unfortunately, he was ignorant of what he needed to do to get his name in the Book of Life and save himself and his family from eternal damnation. Although he was committed to the worship of God, Cornelius' understanding of God's requirement for salvation from sin and eternal life was very shallow and only based on observance of the Old Testament laws. He was not aware that justification was by faith in Jesus Christ. God saw the sincerity of Cornelius and sent an angel to him to instruct him on what he needed to do to get right with God. He obeyed and sent for Peter who was thirty-five miles away to hear the instruction of life for the salvation of his soul and that of his household. If Cornelius had disobeyed the revelation message and instruction of divine mercy sent to him, he would have perished with his household despite all his alms-giving, prayers, fasting and commitment to God's worship, because their worship was on wrong premises. God can only be appeased through faith on the Lord Jesus Christ, which he was ignorant of.

If you do not want to perish, you must seek for the total truth of the gospel that will save your soul from condemnation. Go for the total gospel truth, embrace it and live by it. Discover the doctrine of salvation, sanctification, baptism with the Holy Spirit, Christian marriage, tithes and offering, restitution, Christian dressing, holiness etc. Make necessary changes in your life, in your family and in your church, if you are a presiding pastor. Are you in illegal possession of someone else's property? Restore such to the rightful owner. Are you in a wrong marriage or “divorce and remarriage” situation? Repent and withdraw from such ungodly relationship. Are you living in wilful sin? Repent, forsake such sins and turn to God. Make right your wrongs.

Thought for the day: You need the WHOLE TRUTH of salvation to get saved.
Song for the day: He can never never change...
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 38-39; Hebrews 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...
