GOD BECAME A “SON” FOR THE WORK OF REDEMPTION

TEXT: Matthew 1:20-23

Key verse: Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.

Jesus became a human being so that He would be born on earth and possess human nature, for the purpose of the redemption of mankind. This was prophesied by Prophet Isaiah about 700 years before His birth. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a Child is born, unto us, a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. “A Child is born unto us” means He was conceived and born as a child because of us. “A Son is given unto us” means He would be called the Son of God on earth because of us. Why was this so? This Scripture explains that God came down to earth as a man in order to take over the government of mankind and carry that government on His shoulder. He came down to take charge of the salvation of mankind: to save men and rule over them in righteousness and holiness. He became a “Child” and “a Son.” But who is He? “His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” This is the God that created the world in His wonders; the Word that is full of life and truth; the Mighty God that has no comparison or equal. The Everlasting Father of creation who gave being to all things in heaven and earth; the Prince of Peace who came to give us righteousness and peace.

In our devotional text, the angel explained to Joseph that the Holy Ghost had caused that conception in the womb of his wife, Mary and that she was going to bring forth a child as earlier prophesied by Isaiah. “She shall bring forth a Son and thou shall call His Name Jesus. He shall save His people from their sins.” Everybody in the world is His own person because He created them. All tribes are His people. All nations are His people. Everyone everywhere belongs to Him. They are His people and He wants to save them from their sins. His people are lost in various religions. Some of them are in the Islamic religion, some are in Hindus religion, some are in Judaism religion, some are in traditional religion, some of them are even in the Christian religion, but are yet to be saved. The angel said His coming into the world was to save all His people from their sins. Hallelujah!

Thought for the day: The sacrifice of God for the sinful man is a great one.

Song for the day: Emma-nu-el, Emma-nu-el….Your name is called, Emma-nu-el

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 17-18; Acts 19:1-20

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...

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 Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
