DANIEL THE YOUTH THAT PURPOSED TO REMAIN HOLY

God bless you, as you take your time to study 

TOPIC: DANIEL THE YOUTH THAT PURPOSED TO REMAIN HOLY 

TEXT: Daniel 1: 1-6 

TUESDAY JULY 12

Key verse: Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Many eat and drink all manner of food without exercising caution thereby eating and drinking unto damnation. Some of this food or drinks are those sacrificed to idols and some are given to initiate people into Satanism. Some food and drinks are given to people in exchange for their souls at parties, in the neighbourhood, in the offices, in schools, celebrations. Ritualists are on a rampage today, seeking every means to make money. We should exercise care in collecting and eating food from every source that comes our way. 
Daniel 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he will not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the Eunuchs that he might not defile himself. 
Daniel requested for only fruits, vegetables and water as against the polluted meals of the king. At the end of ten days, the four Hebrew children looked better than those who ate the king’s meal. God gave Daniel exceptional qualities that made him different from Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams, aside from the knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom that God gave to four of them.
When King Nebuchadnezzar threatened to kill all the wise men of Babylon, he was the one God used to appease the king and save the life of the rest of the wise men by seeking the face of God to bring out the dream and its interpretation. Daniel was also a prayer warrior always facing the location of Jerusalem to pray. He was courageous even at the threat to bow down and worship another god or be thrown into Lion’s den. He continued to serve his God and remained holy.

Thought for the day: Be thou example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

Song for the day: O Lord who delivered Daniel (3x) O Lord deliver me.

Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 7-9; Acts 17:1-15

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
