Topic: WHAT IT MEANS WHEN GOD FORGIVES YOUR SIN                  December Sunday 27th

Text: Psalm 103:11-12

Key verse: 2 Samuel 12:13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. 

And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. 

It is a great thing to receive God’s forgiveness of sins committed against Him and man. The benefits include the followings:

It means the judgment or penalty which you are to suffer now or later is cancelled. What a joy! The Lord has forgiven you your sin and says you are no more going to hell. Now you can heave a sigh of relief.

The record of sin is cleansed or blotted out. There is a book of record where record of sins are kept and from which sinners will be judged and condemned, but when your sins are forgiven it means that record will be blotted out. There is forgiveness with God that he should be praised and worshipped. If God were to mark iniquity, who can stand? We are serving the God that forgives sins.

The removal of the power to sin in your life. The power to sin has been taken out of your life. That is how we know the difference. If your sins have been forgiven, then you are not sinning again because sin will no more be attractive to you.

There is impartation of divine power into the soul not to sin anymore. Jesus told the woman caught in adultery, “Go and sin no more.” That commandment from the Lord imparted divine power into that woman to go and live a righteous life. 

It is the restoration to fellowship with God. Your sin separated you from God but now that your sins are forgiven, your relationship with God has been restored. Such was the case with the prodigal son. The father embraced him, changed his garment and he stayed in the house in continual fellowship.

Access to divine blessings. Formerly, you could not pray and receive answer to your prayer but now you are a child. You are a saint. You have been accepted. You have access to the privileges of God because your sins have been forgiven. 

There is joy and peace. There is joy of salvation and peace of God that surpasses all understanding. Hallelujah!

Thought for the day: Jesus has paid your debt of sin and freed you from the penalty of death. 

Song for the day: He loves me I cannot say why....

Bible reading for the day: Zechariah 4-6; Revelation 18

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...
