SEE GOD IN HIS MERCY AND JUDGMENT

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: SEE GOD IN HIS MERCY AND JUDGMENT 

Text: 2 Samuel 12: 11-14 

SATURDAY JANUARY 28th 

Key Verse: Psalm 101:1 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto Thee, O Lord, will I sing. 
This was the commitment and resolution of King David, the righteous leader of God's people. Though it was the resolution of David the godly king, it is still the standard that Jesus the Bishop of our souls has as the One leading the flocks Himself. This is the standard every true and righteous leader must have. The Psalmist praised God both for His mercy and judgment as seen in our key verse. We must see God both in His mercy and judgment, goodness and severity; kindness and punishment; salvation and condemnation, quickening people back to life, and in destroying people forever. You need to see God in these two perspectives; mercy and judgment. 
We speak often of His grace, kindness, love, and forgiveness. Certainly, God will show you kindness, God will forgive your sins but see God also as a judge. Will He that judged Satan and the angels that followed him spare you? How many sins did Satan commit in heaven that warranted this everlasting curse on him? Remember that Satan was an archangel and covering cherub. Remember his beauty and the service he rendered to God. Have you done one percent of all the works Satan did when he was Lucifer in heaven? Isaiah 14:12-15. God’s Judgment went forth against Satan and he removed him from heaven. He was cast down to the earth, to the sides of the pit, and his dwelling in hell fire. 
The man of God must see mercy and judgment in the service of God: Some qualify by mercy to be in God's service but there are those who by God's judgment and severity have been rejected and excluded from God's service already as king Saul who although still serving yet was long rejected by God. Why? They took God’s mercy for granted and never feared His judgment. As a result, they still romance with sin in their daily lives. Know that as merciful as God is, He is also a God of judgment. When Saul was rejected as king, was he not still on the throne? Be careful, lest thou also fall into the judgment of God. 

Thought for the day See God as a great Judge

Song for today I will sing of the mercy of the Lord of the Lord 

Bible reading for the day: Exodus 16-18; Matthew 19:16-30

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...
