ASK WHAT I SHALL GIVE THEE

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: ASK WHAT I SHALL GIVE THEE
TEXT: JEREMIAH 29: 11-12  

TUESDAY JANUARY 3th 

Key verse: “In Gibeon, the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. 1 Kings 3:5  
God is a prayer-answering God and He invites people to pray to Him. Asking and receiving is a good relationship God wants to establish with men. He wants to establish a relationship with you – a relationship of asking and receiving.  Psalm 65:2 “O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come.”
“O Thou that hearest prayer…” – That is the testimony of people. People know God as God that hears prayers, and they say that unto Him shall all flesh come. Every member of the family should learn to come to God – the father should come to Him, the mother should come to Him, and the children should come to Him because he is the God that hears prayers. Every member of the Church should know God as the one that hears prayers. The Church is serving the God that hears prayers, and to Him, all of us should come.
Prayer is a privilege. For God to say, “Ask what I shall give thee,” is a great privilege! It is an opportunity to ask, and God is the one that invited you to ask. It is a great privilege and a demonstration of God’s grace. God wants to flow out to you in His goodness and kindness, therefore, He said: “Come and ask; I want to show forth My kindness and goodness to your life.”
Prayer is a manifestation of His mercy. He knows we can do nothing on our own. He knows that without Him we can achieve nothing. He knows we cannot get there on our own. He knows that we cannot win the battle on our own. He knows that we cannot save our souls. He knows we cannot get what we are looking for with power. That is why, in mercy, He invites us to come and pray; to come and call unto Him; to come and ask Him – to ask Him because He wants to bless us and “give us an expected end” (Jeremiah 29:11). Prayer is the means of receiving God’s blessing. Through prayers, we receive from God promises, power and privileges.  

Thought for the day: Prayer-answering is an attribute of God

Song for the day: O yes, He answers prayers

Bible reading for the day: Genesis 6-8; Matthew 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...
