TOPIC: CHILDREN LEFT TO THEMSELVES WILL BECOME TOOLS IN THE HANDS OF THE DEVIL

TEXT: 1 Samuel 2:12-21

KEY VERSE: 1 Samuel 2:12 Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord.

In today’s devotional text, God described the sons of Eli this way: Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord. These were children of Satan. They were wicked children.  They could be occultic. They were demonic and probably wizards. They did not know the Lord. How did this happen? Eli, how did you live with your children and they came to the point that Satan fully took them over? How did you live with the children that they became wizards? How did they join occultism and became members of illuminati? How did you treat them? Eli! You did not train someone to replace you, even as the high priest? You were busy so much in this work that you forgot those that will succeed you? You did not know that succession in this work requires righteousness? Why did you not give much time to these children? The Bible says, “Train up a child in the way he should go.” Did you take time to train one of your children to become a faithful high priest before the Lord? 

Eli, you missed it from the beginning. You missed your early work. You were negligent. You left these children on their own and you were busy doing other things. Eli, in all your movement, you were swinging only one hand; you were not exercising the second hand. You did not know that if you left it too long it would become paralyzed? See it now! You preserved it without using it. Daddy, mummy, the child that is left to himself shall be a sorrow to you tomorrow. You left that child and whatever he wanted you gave him. You said to the child, “Take! Sleep as much as you want. Do whatever you want to do as much as you want.” No training! Whatever she cried for you say, “Oh, okay, take, take, take." Even when she wanted to take a knife, you gave her because she was crying. You said to yourself “I had better give her the knife so that I can rest.” You may rest today but tomorrow you will wake up in tears. Do you want to present rotten children to God? Did He give them rotten to you at birth? Were they not beautiful and wonderful bundles of joy? Your children are God’s heritage, preserve them in good condition; otherwise, you will not be blameless.

Thought for the day: You are a caretaker for God over your children. Keep them undefiled.
Song for the day: Let the Lord have His way, let the Lord have His way……
Bible reading for the day: Exodus 31-33; Matthew 22:23-46

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...

The Source Of Faith

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
