THE GODLY LIFE OF JESUS CHRIST’S DISCIPLE (PART 2)

TEXT: EPHESIANS 4:22-32 
Key verse: Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance against such is no law.

The Spirit of Christ in a believer works out the fruits of righteousness and godliness. What is the evidence of Christ in a believer? Our key verses point out the things you need to see in your life to ascertain that you are changed:
• Love: Before you gave your life to Jesus, you have made efforts to love people, but all those efforts ended up in evil. Some people said that they love a sister or a brother, but they ended up carrying out the sin of fornication. That type of love is not the kind of love the Holy Spirit builds in a believer. 
• Joy: As a Christian, you should not exhibit anger, bitterness and moody faces that make people away from you. Do not say that anger is in your family line. The Bible says that if you are in Christ, inherited anger must be put away. 
• Peace: As a believer, you must pursue peace. The offences you see in people is because you keep seeking out for offences. Why must you wait for someone to apologize to you first? Why not go and apologize first? When you do this, it shows you are pursuing peace.
• Longsuffering: This means bearing suffering and allowing God to sort things out for you.  A story was told of a woman who wanted to stop quarrels with her husband. She met a counsellor who gave her wax to secretly put into her mouth whenever her husband comes back to the house. Whenever the husband came with quarrels, she would not react to avoid the husband noticing it. The quarrels reduced since she did not retaliate.
• Gentleness: You must be gentle. Correct others in gentleness.
• Goodness: For someone to be a good person, it shows in his/her character. Give a smiling face as when Boaz spoke with Ruth even though he did not know her. By being good to people, they can be won over to Christ.
• Faith: Without faith, it is impossible to please God.
• Meekness: Ability to submit to the opinion of others when you see that there is light in it.
• Temperance: In everything, you must show control and overcome in love.

Thought for the day: Let the Holy Spirit develop the fruit of righteousness in you 

Song for the day: I want you LORD to be satisfied with me…

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, ...
