TOPIC: PERSONAL DISCIPLINE IS REQUIRED IN CHRISTIAN LIFE AND MINISTRY

 For taking your time to study remain blessed.


TOPIC: PERSONAL DISCIPLINE IS REQUIRED IN CHRISTIAN LIFE AND MINISTRY December Tuesday 8th
Text: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
Key verse: 1 Corinthians 6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 

If you fail to meditate on the word of God sins will creep into your life. You need to profit from the ministry of true men of God. Listen to messages that will edify you. Participate diligently in HOREMOW assignments that the Lord has given us in daily prayers, Bible reading with commentaries, listening to HOREMOW messages and reading the prescribed books. Jesus said, “Sanctify them by the word, thy word is truth.” Ask it shall be given, seek and ye shall find. When you ask your Father for righteousness, He will give it to you. Bring every sin (lust, anger, greed etc.) that is disturbing you to God. Take time to pray to God to purify you. Pray for those that often provoke you. Prayer will save and strengthen you. God says, “Call upon me in the days of trouble: I will deliver thee and thou shall glorify Me.” You will deliver yourself through your personal prayer. Do not get to the point of preaching without examining the righteousness of your life. Paul checked himself so that after preaching to others he will not be a castaway. Add patience and knowledge to your life. Subject your life to control. Do not do anything in excess even in your dressing. Practice kindness. Divine discipline is required in your life.

Hebrews 12:5 “And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as, unto children, my son despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him”. God allowed the children of Israel to take a long way because He wanted to prove them. All that God allowed into your life as challenges are to prove you. Strive to pass the test. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. If you fear any person; whether it is your General Overseer or husband or wife or boss etc., holiness will be impossible. Holiness is only possible when you take God and His word above every man’s voice. The Bible shows that serving God in righteousness and holiness is possible to them that surrender to Him and live for Him. These are the ones that develop faith in God and serve Him in spirit and in truth, thereby fulfilling the desire of God. If you are faithful and do it right, nobody will complain about you. Where people say contrary things and it is proved before man and God to be persecution, God will comfort and reward you.

Thought for the day: An undisciplined Christian cannot go far with God.
Song for the day: I am a soldier in the army (3x) I am a soldier in the army of the Lord
Bible reading for the day: Daniel 11-12; 3 John

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...
