GIVING THANKS AND PRAISES UNTO GOD.

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED.
GIVING THANKS AND PRAISES UNTO GOD 
June Friday 25th
TEXT: Ephesians 5: 20-27
Key verse: “In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you” 1Thessalonians 5:18.
In everything give thanks and praise to God. This is what God desires from His children. Our thanks and praise should ascend to God in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in everything, good or evil; in pleasure or pain, in the joy of life or the dread of death. God requires this from every believer. It is good for the Christian. However, praise and thanksgiving to God are often forgotten by men in times of peace, prosperity and pleasure. The scripture warns every child of God against this transgression and costly forgetfulness.
To forget to give God praise and thanks in your good times deprives your soul of humility and fills it instead with pride of self. The heart of the one who forgets God in his achievements claims that he got it by his inherent powers, wisdom, ability, and connections. Or he may ascribe the glory to other human beings, or even to demons. Never fail to give God praise and thanks for all the good things in your life; they come from Him and He wants you to realize this and appreciate Him. 
Thank Him for the knowledge, wisdom, understanding, connections, human helps, open doors, favours, and grace He has given you. Praise and thanksgiving to God is a scriptural command, instruction and counsel. God wants us to praise Him when things are hard, unpleasant, and ugly, whether imagined or real. Job demonstrated this truth. He praised and worshipped God in the worst situation of his life. His wife wondered at such attitude. The Lord wants us to learn this from the life of Job. Our situation may not be as terrible as Jobs. If he praised and worshipped God when his days were dark we too can praise God likewise. 
Job 1:20-22: Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell upon the ground, and worshipped… blessed be the name of the LORD. In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

Thought for the day: Job worshipped God steadfastly even at his worst trial
Song for the day: Praise God Alleluia, Praise God Amen...
Bible Reading for the day: 
Job 4-6; Acts 7:20-43

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...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
