God blessed you for taking your time to study.

GOD HAS ASCERTAINED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF MEN.

TEXT: DANIEL 6: 1-23 

THURSDAY DECEMBER 22nd 

Key Verse: Ezekiel 14:14 “Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD“
Daniel was rewarded with a promotion by the king of Babylon for his faithfulness and righteousness. This did not go down well with the princess who conspired against him. Though they could not find fault with Daniel except in the matters of his God. They succeeded, and a decree was signed for nobody to worship any God for 30 days except king Darius. In verse 10 “Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being opened in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime”. They found Daniel praying and reported to the king. When the king discovered it was a setup against Daniel, he made effort to save him but could not. 
Daniel was cast into the den of a lion but his righteousness spoke: “the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting”. He went in haste unto the den of lions the following morning. A voice came from the den, the voice of the righteous, the voice of the holy, the voice of the one tried and found faithful, the voice of a man whose life is in the hand of God, under his everlasting arm, that voice sounded and said unto the king, “O king, live forever. My God hath sent His angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before Him, innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.” Divine protection! Righteousness delivers from death. God, Himself announced the righteousness and holiness of Daniel. Some people doubt these revelations and prophecies that we receive. ‘Can God say that somebody is righteous? They are just telling lies.’ Believe God’s report. It is scriptural. 

Thought for the day: God approves and testifies to the righteousness of men.

Song for the day: Holiness unto the Lord is our watchword and song…

Bible reading for the day: Nahum; Revelation 13

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...

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
