COMPLETE OBEDIENCE AND SUBMISSION TO GOD'S WORD
TEXT: Psalms 19: 7-11 
Key verse: Matthew 4: 4 "But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."
Our text today presents the word of God as perfect, pure, righteous, pure and clean. Our obedience to it must be complete and total. Keep to the word exactly. You must not show over righteousness on it. It awakens one to total obedience and complete loyalty to God in our daily life and service to Him. Many have left the ancient path and have taken to modern Christianity. You cannot criticize God nor His word. His word remains the same across generations. It is Yea and Amen! 
We are going to consider three points in this message.
1) God demands complete obedience to His word. The revealed word of God is given to us to obey. Jesus died to bring complete obedience and wholesome righteousness to man. In His instruction to the children of Israel, He demanded the keeping of all the commandments  (Deuteronomy 4: 1, 2); matters of tithe payment; righteousness; living in love; peace; prayer; faith in God and service in the house of God. All the ways that He has shown you, walk-in them all that ye may live; for your eternal life is in keeping all, that it may be well with you and God shall prolong your days in the land that ye go in to possess (Deuteronomy 6:1-3).
2) Awakening and determination for complete obedience to God's word. Usually, human organizations do not demand total loyalty to the authority of men. Parents may not demand complete obedience from their children. They may make provisions to accommodate their weaknesses and little stubbornness. Educational institutions do not demand 100% scores from their students but expect satisfactory performance from them. Many think these principles apply to God's word and his standard. Many Christians are working for minimum qualification for heaven. The examination questions for heaven are objective and you must pass all. If you fail once, you fail all. Don't think you are trying. You must do it perfectly and rightly to enter heaven. 
3) Commitment and prayer for God's sufficient grace: We are called upon to give ourselves unto God with all our commitment to Him. We must pray to God to keep our commitment to God and our leaders. Psalm 119: 4 – 6, "Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently. In obedience, we come                     
Thought for today: God gives value only to those that obey His word. Are you one?
Song for the day: I am ready to obey thy word …
Bible reading for the day: 
Joshua 19-20; Luke 5:17-39

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
