THE KNOWLEDGE AND POWER OF SALVATION

REMAIN BLESSED FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN

DATE: SATURDAY 19TH FEBRUARY

TOPIC: THE  KNOWLEDGE AND POWER OF SALVATION

TEXT: PROVERBS 19:2

Key verse: Isaiah 5:13-Therefore my people are gone into captivity because they do not know: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.

You need knowledge of the Lord to know who He is. You need the knowledge of the word of God. Jesus said, teaching them all things.

Therefore, you need the knowledge of all doctrines of God. Some Christians say that they are not aware of the last days’ events, but you need it. You need to know what you are supposed to do and what you are not supposed to do.

However, mere knowledge of God cannot save but the required power of God to quicken your salvation. In other words, knowledge is not enough; knowledge must be accompanied by power.

For example, you can know all business strategies but without money, you cannot carry them out. So is knowledge without power? The knowledge of the things you know should lead you to Jesus. Sin is a mighty force that requires a stronger power to break it or stop its operations.

Therefore, having mere knowledge of something should not puff you up. A sinner may know the doctrine of salvation but he or she is still a sinner because knowledge alone is not enough. Knowledge must lead you to obtain the grace of salvation that is in Christ.

The knowledge of the doctrinal experience of sanctification may not mean that you have it, you want to teach it, you can even answer questions on it but still, you do not possess it. To possess sanctification, power needs to be released from Christ.

Hence, salvation is by power and it is only when the power is released, that either salvation or sanctification becomes an experience. Even Satan waits until power is released from what is been told to him before he can be defeated. If you want to be saved, you must possess humility.

What a sinner, secret backslider and open backslider needs is humility. If you truly want the blessing of life, you must be humble. Remember that your wisdom, the position you have in Christ is nothing without humility. Sin and Satan cannot be resisted by your personality or inherent powers.

Also, know that the number of years of prayers you has spent coming to church or reading the Bible does not necessarily conquer sin in your life but rather the power of God must be released before you will receive the required/mean salvation.

Therefore, everyone in the church must be preached to because sin does not respect anyone. If you say we should not preach to everyone, we may lose some people in the church whom sin has overcome.

Thought for the day: Humble yourself to receive salvation and sanctification

Song for the day: There is power mighty in the blood

Bible reading for the day: Numbers 1-2;
Mark 3:1-21

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. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
