TEENAGER RETURNS FROM HELL WITH A MESSAGE (2)

TEXT: Acts 9:39-42 

MONDAY JANUARY 30th 

KEY VERSE: Acts 9:42 And it was known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.”
(Continued from yesterday)
Suddenly, a mighty voice called him thrice, asking if he knew where he was going. He answered that he was on his way to hellfire and began to plead for mercy. The Lord showed him mercy; He commanded him to go back, confess his sins, do his restitution and give a warning message to his people. The Lord promised to send an angel to bring him to heaven afterward. He said all his sins were loaded upon his chest as he carried them on the broad way to hell. He made several confessions; stealing handsets, selling a stolen tipper-load of sand, and cheating his fellows while sharing the money. 
He also confessed to defiling a child, etc…He begged for forgiveness and asked his brother, the pastor to help him go around and do restitution on his behalf. The brother diligently went to those places and as he confessed to them, they all said, “Yes, it is true but now we forgive him.” Nurses, patients, and others wept openly, confessing their sins and repenting to the glory of God. Meanwhile, his brother returned and reported that he was not able to see some of the people. 
The young man turned and prayed, “Lord Jesus, I have done as You commanded but we could not see some of them. Please Lord, will You forgive me?” The Lord Jesus replied, ‘Yes I forgive you.’ The young man shouted with joy and gratitude. He led the people gathered around him to the Lord in prayers. He bid farewell to his family, blessed his little sister then told one of his brothers to repent. He then shouted, “The angel to take me home has arrived. See him!” He pointed at the angel but the crowd could not see the angel. He was hale and hearty and in sound, as he bid them farewell, then slumped and died.

Thought for the day: Mercy triumphs over judgment

Song for the day: Over the river Jordan, we shall meet…

Bible reading for the day: Exodus 22-24; Matthew 20:17-34

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...
