IMPLICATION OF UNFORGIVENNESS AND UNFORGIVEN SIN

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

DATE: FRIDAY 14TH JANUARY

TOPIC: IMPLICATION OF UNFORGIVENNESS AND UNFORGIVEN SIN

TEXT: MATTHEW 18: 21 – 35

Key verse: Matthew 18:33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellow servant, even as I pitiedr refuses to offer forgiveness:He is displaying ingratitude for the forgiveness he received from God. He is putting offenders in prison. 

Forgiveness gives liberty, freedom, peace and rest. Ensure you forgive to remove that yoke from others. Even banks cancel bad debts and lift burdens on their customers; Ensure you work for the forgiveness of the offended. 

If you refuse to forgive, it means you are keeping that man in prison; If you do not forgive, you will receive condemnation; In this text, the man grasped his fellow servant on the throat. The people around gave an evil report to him. 

Some people are too proud to say sorry to their wives or husbands [Spouse]. Don't give indirect forgiveness; speak out the offences from your mouth; When you refuse to forgive, you will face divine judgment; If you are forgiven, can you not be merciful to others too? The judgment of God will certainly catch up with you if you don't learn to forgive;

Scriptural instances on forgiveness 

a. Jacob solicited and received Esau’s forgiveness, (Genesis 32: 3 – 11),

b. Joseph forgave his brethren when they came to Egypt. (Genesis 50:15-21)

c. The prodigal son received his father's forgiveness (Luke 15: 11-32

)d. Paul wrote Philemon to forgive Onesimus (Philemon 10-18)

.Learn to apologize to your others where it is required

Thought for today: To forgive, drop your pride

Song for the day: Mercy Oh Lord (2x) Father show as your mercy…..

Bible reading for the day: Genesis 33-35; 
Matthew 11.

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...
