FRIDAY 20 AUGUST

DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEART AGAINST GOD'S TRUTH

TEXT: Hebrews 3:7-19

Key verse:  Proverbs 28:14 Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth

his heart shall fall into mischief.

 

A hardened heart is the heart that hears the truth and refuses to respond to it. He hears the truth and purposely rejects it. It is the heart of the hypocrite. It is the heart of the pretender. It is the heart of zealous liars. They are zealous but liars. They are full of pretences. They pretend they are living a holy life; they pretend they are following Jesus with all joy but there is no testimony in their lives to prove it. Their heart is hardened towards God and towards His commandments. Some of them have risen up the ladder of leadership in the Church but they are not genuine Christians. Now, God is revealing them in our midst gradually.

 

You will discover that they have never fully responded to God for the salvation of their soul. They know the truth but they are not ready for it because they love their lives of sin. Their lying lips serve them only for a time.  Over time, it will become manifest and all will see that they are not original. It shall soon be revealed that they are spiritually dead and not alive. It will show brother. My sister, it is going to show with time. It will show that somebody is dead. How long does it take to know whether somebody is asleep or dead? Within one week, flies will locate a decomposing dead body. In the same way, time will soon prove a hypocritical or hardened heart. If there is a particular sin in your life and the word has been hitting you but you refuse to change, the Lord shall locate you soon for iniquity shall not continue forever.

 A hardened heart cannot be penetrated into. Light cannot penetrate into it. Genuine love cannot penetrate into it. Goodness cannot penetrate into it. Kindness cannot penetrate into it because it is too hard to allow anything in. All that you do are pretences. The heart cannot absorb moisture. A hardened heart cannot accept anything into it. Don't serve God with this type of heart.

Thought for the day: Don't harden your heart against the truth of God. There lies your salvation.

Song for the day: I want to be like Daniel to obey Jesus Christ

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 116-118; 1 Corinthians 2

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...
