TOPIC: JESUS IS LORD AND SAVIOUR DECEMBER Friday 25th

TEXT: ISAIAH 9: 6-7

Key verse: “Behold, a virgin shall be with child and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” Matthew 1: 23


Angels were sent to herald the birth of Jesus Christ, the Saviour of mankind. Jesus came to save man from the eternal damnation of hellfire. Today generality of Christians worldwide commemorate the coming of our Redeemer into this sinful world for the salvation of man. The birth of Jesus was of great excitement to the angels. The deplorable state of men on earth under the rule of Satan had been a concern. Now the Lord Himself had come down for the salvation of men! A mighty host of angels were seen by the shepherds praising God. We need to learn something here from the angelic praise: They praised God by uttering distinct words to the edification of the hearers; Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill towards men. The angels praised God for this act of love and sacrifice for mankind. Now God would be glorified as men on earth would experience righteousness and peace.

His new fashion as a man, His Father was greater than Him, because the Father was in His full glory as God when Jesus came to earth. The scripture shows us moments when Jesus praised and thanked the Father. At the grave of Lazarus, when Jesus went to raise Lazarus back to life, the first thing He uttered in prayer was thanksgiving to the Father for His faithfulness in answering His prayers. By this Jesus shows us that God must be praised, thanked, and adored as a prayer-answering God. When we come before God in prayer, we must remember to praise, thank, and worship Him as our faithful Creator, Father, and Lover, Who is good and merciful. When the disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray, He made them know that the first thing they should do when they come into the presence of God in prayer was to offer praise, thanksgiving, and adoration to God. Another Christmas is here for you to thank, praise, and adore God for the gift of His Son for your salvation, sustenance, security, spiritual and material blessings of life. Your joy and comfort should not be in feasting and merriment, but in the understanding of the great love, God has for you. God is delighted when men reciprocate His love by repenting from sin and surrendering to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

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...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
