THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH (PART 2)

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

25TH TUESDAY JANUARY

THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH (PART 2)           
TEXT: ROMANS 1:16-17
Key verse: Habakkuk 2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted is not upright in him:  but the just shall live by his faith.
The faith of the just is based on the promises of God. God can look at a contrary situation of your life and throws a promise to you that if you are not a person of faith, you might miss the promise as clearly seen in Abraham’s case. He just believes in the testimonies of the scripture and that as it happened to those in the scripture, it will likewise happen to him. They just believe in the prophetic word of God. I have heard many testimonies of God’s promises. 
I went out one day and noticed a location Pastor and some brethren carrying an insane woman towards my house. When I approached them, they informed me of what was going on. I quickly informed them to carry the woman to the fellowship venue. We took time and prayed for her and the prayer was effective because she who had not eaten requested a meal. The brethren were relieved as they too were very much engaged with her display. Hence, when she calmed down, the brethren took out time to refresh themselves. However, the same evening, I was told that she was nowhere to be found.  In the morning, I requested for a search to be made around the location and for an extension to other parts nearby.  
I went to the scriptures and ask God to speak to me. I received a lead to reading the story of the prodigal son but I wondered what I could receive from it. Nevertheless, I still went on to read it. There is a verse that indicated that the prodigal son has gone far; then I knew that the woman had truly gone far. As I read further, I came to the verse that says “for this, my son was dead and is alive again, he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry.” Luke 15:11-32. At this, I knew that the quickened scripture has been given by God. I knew that no matter how far the woman had gone, she would be found. Therefore, hold on to the prophetic word God has given you. 
Romans 1:16-17 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Examples abound of just men that lived by faith: Daniel spent a night with hungry lions in their den; Joshua made the sun and the moon to stand still; Abraham and Sarah believed God for a son at very old age; Joseph believed God for the realization of his dream; Paul ran the Christian race and finished well by faith and David overcame Goliath by faith
Thought for the day: Have faith in God 

Song for the day: Forever oh Lord your word is settled in heaven it is settled.

Bible reading for the day: 
Exodus 9-10; Matthew 18:1-20

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...

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...
