TOPIC: KEEP YOURSELF UNDEFILED BEFORE MARRIAGE

TEXT: Psalm 119:33-40

33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.

34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.

36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity and quicken thou me in thy way.

38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.

39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.

40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.

KEY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 9:16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! 

Single sister, single brother, you need to keep yourself undefiled so as not to hinder the gospel work, which is your compelling duty in Christ (1 Corinthians 9:16). Where would you have the power to preach this gospel if you get yourself defiled? Ruth was not among those running after men, laughing, tolerating casual touching here and there. 

Not Ruth! Don't parade yourself to attract a marriage partner. It diminishes your quality before God. Make yourself cheap and you will have a cheap husband. Make yourself qualitative and you will have a qualitative husband. When you come across a determined person he will play like the psalmist as we read in today’s devotional text.

That is the prayer of the righteous single sister or brother who says, “Teach me about marriage, I will stick to it and follow the processes. I don't want to fail my God. I have gotten the vision of heaven and I want to be there. I have heard of hell and I don't want to go there. Even if there is a delay in the approval process by the marriage committee, I will learn righteousness by enduring it for the delay may be for my good. He that hasteneth with his feet sinneth. 

Help me to follow your commandment. It gives me joy when my obedience is fulfilled.” Let the church give good testimony about you. Love the testimony of the Lord in a man or woman, not wealth, position, fame or otherworldly considerations. Sometimes the person you want to marry may not be handsome or beautiful but that is vanity. Do you know how beautiful mammy water can be; even Satan?

Spend more time in the things of God than marriage. 

Colossians 3:1-4, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.” 

Let your mind be in heaven. Don't be overburdened or go into sorrow because of the marriage issue. Seek for heaven and pray for its righteousness. I am married to Jesus Satan leave me alone should be your song. Don't yield to Satan; then, you will get reward, guidance, peace from Jesus. 

Thought for the day: Brother, Sister, keep yourself pure for Jesus your groom will soon arrive.

Song for the day: I am married to Jesus Satan leave me alone

Bible reading for the day: Deuteronomy 5-7; Mark 12:1-27

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...

My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen. If they listen to My word and reject it, let them go. Evangelize, preach My word to everybody, I am here gathering My people before My coming. If the time was not finished, would the animals have come to Noah? The time is...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
