PATIENCE IS REQUIRED IN PRAYER

God bless you for taking your time to study.

PATIENCE IS REQUIRED IN PRAYER
TEXT: 1 KINGS 18: 41- 46 
         
TUESDAY NOVEMBER 15th
 
Key verse: Hebrews 10:36-37 36 For ye have to need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.

Patience is important in prayer. We need to wait for God’s divine intervention and responses to our prayers. We should try not to take any action until we are clear in our understanding of the will of God for our lives. We must have faith to believe that God hears our prayers and will respond at the precise time. Many times, believers do not understand the next move but have become hasty to make decisions. As we see in 1 Kings 18, Elijah instructed his servant, but the servant did not quite catch the vision until seven times later. It is a great lesson to us, that Elijah was not hasty to make rash decisions but was persistent to ensure the message and vision were clear. 
We must be patient to watch God at work in our prayer life by understanding His response to our petitions. As Christian people, we need to have faith that God will always act in our best interest. We have a purpose in our lives when we act within the providence of God! We have access to the power of the Holy Spirit when we wait on God’s providence with patient, purposeful and persistent prayer! We must be patiently persevering, as it shows God that we are serious in our prayer. 
We should not cease or faint in prayers, because the scripture admonishes us to pray without ceasing. Yes, there are moments of delay, but the Lord is saying to us, ‘don’t listen to delay, just continue praying and be patient.’ Remember, Jesus in agony went three times and fell before His Father with the same words. Remember, Daniel, prayed and was patient for the answer of deliverance even when the enemy was trying to rob him of the answer. When Satan comes with the spirit of defeat and impatience, shift to a higher gear in prayers, and your patience shall be rewarded in Jesus' Name.

Thought for the day: Wait on the Lord and be of good courage!

Song for the day: Pray until something happens, keep on praying,g and never stop

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 10-12; Hebrews 11:1-19

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
