IMPLICATION OF REFUSING TO DO RESTITUTION   
         
TEXT: GENESIS 20:1-18
KEY VERSE: GEN 20:18 “For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife”
Restitution is required for all believers to prevent the accuser (the devil) from accusing them before God. It is also to enable one to be at peace with all men which is a necessary condition for entry into Heaven. Is there an implication if someone refuses to carry out restitution? Yes! The following are some of the implications:
• Failure to do restitution shows that the offender is disobedient to God’s command: For instance, if you are married to somebody’s wife or husband as it was in the case of King Abimelech, you are distorting God’s eternal plans for that man and the woman, and God will not be glad for you. God’s plan to make Abraham a great nation was for him and Sarah.
• Keeping somebody’s property or wife or husband in your possession is to say you have an accursed thing in your hand and the plague of God follows it. For keeping Sarah, Abraham’s wife, all the women in Abimelech’s palace had their wombs shut up by God. Your suffering may be a result of an accursed thing in your possession. Pray, seek counselling and do not hesitate to carry out your restitution and save yourself from the plague of God 
• God’s Judgment of eternal death is upon you for keeping an accursed thing or somebody’s wife or husband. The Lord told Abimelech “thou art but a dead man, for the woman which thou hast taken is a man’s wife”. The money you have stolen from that person or government is God’s money. God is waiting to reverse your situation, suffering and cancel the death sentence against you if you will only carry out your restitution now and be liberated.
Genesis 20:14-18
14 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
15 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
16 And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, he is to thee a covering of the eyes, unto all that are with thee, and with all other: thus she was reproved.
17 So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare children.
18 For the Lord had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
Thought for the day: Failure to do restitution attracts plague from God
Song for the day: Sanctify me, purify me, sanctify me oh Lord
Bible reading: 2 Samuel 17-18; Luke 21:1-19

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...

My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen. If they listen to My word and reject it, let them go. Evangelize, preach My word to everybody, I am here gathering My people before My coming. If the time was not finished, would the animals have come to Noah? The time is...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
