DOING RESTITUTION FOR PEACE AND CLEAR CONSCIENCE

DOING RESTITUTION FOR PEACE AND CLEAR CONSCIENCE

TEXT: PSALMS 119: 165-168 

WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 12TH

Key verse: Ps 119:173 Let thine hand help me for I have chosen thy precepts
A testimony from Brother Mark Agoh of Kuje chapter: I was the principal of lyale community secondary school, Dekina, from 1981 to 1984. In the process of developing the school, I had to construct and equip science laboratories. This was necessary as the school was preparing its first set of students for WAEC examinations. I traveled to Benin City to purchase science laboratory equipment and chemicals and I did over-invoicing to the tune of about five hundred naira. From this money, I brought a motorcycle worth four hundred and fifty nairas. I did other over-invoicing which I cannot account for.
In January 2020, I went to this school, met the principal, and confessed all these to him; the over-invoicing and the purchase of the motorcycle Suzuki 80. I promised that I will pay the money and add five times it. The principal called all the staff of the school and narrated what I said. He prayed for me and said that the gates of heaven are opened unto me already and that my good records in the school are yet to be exceeded. He further asked me whether I would agree that the school will forgive me and not pay back the money which I gladly accepted. He said that on behalf of the school, he has forgiven me. He also advised all the staff to learn this action and follow suit. He prayed for me and I left.
Before traveling for the restitutions, I sat down with my wife and confessed all sins I have committed against her; how I cheated on her in all the villages and towns we worked in, including Iyale, Dekina, Benin, and other places. I confessed to telling her lies many times. Whenever she requested money, I would tell lies that I did not have. I asked her to forgive me. She said she has forgiven me all my sins from the bottom of her heart and I also said I have forgiven her too for all errors she might have committed against me. After I made this restitution, I had great peace in my heart that I cannot imagine. 

Thought for the day: Thank God for showing me the truth in HOREMOW.

Song for the day: Some years ago I gave my life to Jesus…

Bible reading for the day: 
Isaiah 48-49; Colossians 4

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...
