PROPER CONDUCT IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD                                

APRIL Sunday 4th

TEXT: EPHESIANS 5:3-4,

Key Verse: “Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God and be more ready to hear than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil” Ecclesiastes 5:1

Some people go to church and walk up and down instead of settling down one place to hear the word of God and participate fully in the worship service. Some take the excuse of going to ease themselves and after that instead of coming straight inside the church, they while away time outside to discuss, gossip, backbite with friends who are also outside. Hence there are usually many people outside the church, doing whatever pleases them, while worship is going on inside. Some go to church to make friends or meet old friends, some to look for a life partner and therefore are careless about the worship going on in the church service. Many people go to church for different purposes – some go to do business, seek job connections hence their mind is not in the worship service their attention is divided. Others go to showcase new clothes, new shoes, new car etc. some go to look for healing, deliverance, miracle and breakthrough, not Jesus, not the word of God that will grant them eternal life. Some go late and leave before closing all for flimsy excuses. Man! Why are you so earthly minded? Why are you living for the mundane things of this world? Do you know that you have another life to live eternally after this earth?

Some go to church to dance. The church is the place to learn new styles of dance. The Bible says that the church is the pillar and ground of truth, but they have turned it into the dancing theatre to display unholy dances. Many go to church, pay much money to travel for conferences and come back empty because something else took away their attention rather than Jesus that they ought to seek. Some though seated quietly their minds are over flogged with many things, their mind is outside the church while some are busy dozing. Repent from all these attitudes and seek Jesus sincerely when you go to His presence, pay attention to the word of God which will grant you eternal life. No discussion, no jesting, no noise making in His holy presence.

Thought for the day: Maintain cleanliness in the house of God

Song for the day: I was glad when they say let us go to the house of the Lord. Bible reading for the day: 
Judges 12-14; Luke 9:37-62

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...
