THE BOOK OF LIFE

God bless you for taking your time to study.

THE BOOK OF LIFE 
 
SUNDAY NOVEMBER 6th

TEXT: REVELATION 20:11-12

Key Verse: Philippians 4:3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life.  
There is a book of life and there are books of death. These books have names of people from various continents of the world written in them. The books of death have a greater number of names of human beings who have chosen to end their lives in damnation of hell because of pleasures of sin. The book of life is a divine record book where names of various people all over the world who are in the Lord are written with accuracy and precision. The book also contains the record of each believer’s works while on the earth. In the key verse, Apostle Paul mentioned his fellow labourers whose names were in the book of life because they were in the Lord. 
The Holy Spirit can give you an assurance of your name in the book of life as a believer. This imparts a living hope in a holy believer in expectation of the coming of the Lord to rapture the saints. Believers who are victims of the cares of this life and Satan’s deception will have their names removed from the book of life. Deception of Satan pushes you to transgress against the laws and commandments of God. 1 Timothy 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
The only assurance of dwelling together with the Lord in the city of God called the New Jerusalem is that your name is written in the Lamb’s book of life. Where is your own name written; In the book of life or in the book of death? The dead, small and great shall stand before God, their Creator, to give account of how they spent their lives on the earth. Those who died in their sins will stand before the Great White Throne Judgment at the second resurrection. What a horrifying scene it shall be! What a fearful pronouncement that will be coming from their Saviour whom they rejected because of pleasures of this life. Transfer your name from the book of death to the book of life now by repenting of your sins and turning to Jesus for a new life.

Thought for the day: Is your name in the book of life?

Song for the day: My name is written with a golden pen.
 
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 43-45; Hebrews 3

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...
