HOREMOW IS JESUS’ MINISTRY

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED. 

DATE: FRIDAY APRIL 2

TOPIC: HOREMOW IS JESUS’ MINISTRY

TEXT: Galatians 2: 7-8
7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;
8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

Key verse: Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Paul, the apostle, was called to a great ministry. He guarded jealously the work of the Lord put in his care. He had people working alongside him to do the work of the Lord. The great work committed to him could not be denied, all those around him knew it, and Paul knew it too.

 It was to Paul that the message was given, to reach out to the Gentiles and make them live righteous lives. Paul called this ministry his ministry, his gospel and therefore exercised his God-given authority in managing this ministry.

Though Paul addressed this ministry work like him, it was the Lord's purpose being fulfilled through Paul. If you see then that this work we are trying to do in this movement is of the Lord, why then are you entertaining wrong counsel from people concerning it? 

These people tell you, ‘this ministry is for Pastor Paul Rika; it is not yours, why are you working yourself tirelessly trying to fulfil someone else's ministry?’ It is evident that these your ‘counsellors' have little understanding of the ways and workings of God. 

Paul worked with Barnabas, Silas, Timothy, Titus and Luke that God brought to him. All these served under Paul. The ministry was committed to Paul and not to any of these other men. So, why are you deceived into thinking the ministry has got to be in your name before you can serve and commit yourself to His work wholeheartedly? 

Why are you so self-seeking, seeking glory and fame for yourself, rather than seeking to glorify the Lord? Why not appreciate the Lord for ordering your steps to this glorious ministry, and inquire of Him what He needs for you to do to promote His course in this end-time?

The ministry is always given to one man, and it is according to the Lord’s plan that with the spirit of unity among all, the ministry work will be carried out and for all to benefit from it. If you reject this plan of God there is no alternative plan for you elsewhere.

Thought for the day: Appreciate God for ordering your steps to this glorious ministry 

Song for the day: I am so glad I belong to Jesus

Bible reading for the day: Judges 8-9; 
Luke 8:22-56. #Horemow

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...
