DEAL WITH THE ROOT OF SIN.

God bless you for taking your time to study.

DEAL WITH THE ROOT OF SIN.
 
TUESDAY OCTOBER 18TH

TEXT: ROMANS 7:16-25.
KEY VERSE: Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Sin has devastating consequences in the life of a believer. Apart from spiritual death, the opportunity of living eternally with the Lord Jesus Christ is lost due to a sinful lifestyle. The root of sin began in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve disobeyed God in Genesis 3:4-6. How can we deal with the root of sin in our lives? It is when we discover the things that God warns us in His word not to do and we run away from it, and completely refrain from it.
Proverbs 1:10 “My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.”
1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it”.
Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,”
Acts 3:19 “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.”
We cannot live in sin and pretend to serve God such services are not acceptable before God. When we claim to be righteous, the Bible says in Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness is as filthy rags; ---” God says our righteousness is like our filthy rags before God. When we recognize that we are sinners before God and need to be made right then we must make all conscious efforts to repent from our sinful nature and turn to God for cleansing.

Thought for the day: Seek to have a right standing with God, because without holiness no man shall see the Lord.

Song for the day: I surrender, all to Him my blessed savior I surrender.

Bible reading for the day:  Isaiah 55-56; 2 Thessalonians 1

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...
