EMULATE GOD'S PURE LOVE FOR MAN

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD, AMEN

DATE:  SATURDAY 25th DECEMBER

TOPIC: EMULATE GOD'S PURE LOVE FOR MAN

TEXT: ROMANS 5: 1-8

Key verse: John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God's pure love is the reason for the season. The greatest love you can show at this festive season is to embrace and emulate God's pure love in salving man from sin, Satan and sicknesses. Pure love is based on the word of God. Love people and seek their welfare because God says so, not for selfish reasons. 

Pure love comes with feelings of sympathy as you put yourself in that person's situation and feel it. If someone has not eaten for days will you not feel it? Suppose it was you. Suppose someone is down with the sickness. You feel for him knowing what it feels like. Again, in cases of bereavement, you empathize with the bereaved and offer assistance to them.

Again, love moves with acts of charity and giving. Love will give. That's why love entertains and empathizes. Love entertains, gives because you feel you sympathize you want to help, you want to do your part. You want to contribute. That's what love will do. 

Again, love has the emotions of joy. You love a person you feel joyful with whatever is going on around him, you feel joyful about what he says. The word of that person makes you feel happy. You feel happy to hear their utterances because of love, you hear him relate with him. 

Again, love goes with kind words, kind actions, gentleness and meekness. That is what love does. Love makes you gentle in the presence of your lover and that makes your lover feel happy. The one that is loved feels happy. The one that you love feels happy. So, that is how love is. 

You are kind in words, you speak softly. You speak for the benefit of that person. That's because love is there. Again, love moves with friendliness. Love is friendly because you love, you draw closer. The Bible says that he that has friends must show himself friendly. 

Thought for the day: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, 
that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Song for the day: To God be the glory great things He has done

Bible reading for the day:  Haggai; Revelation 16.  #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...
