CONTINUAL PRAYER GIVES VICTORY OVER THE ENEMY

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: CONTINUAL PRAYER GIVES VICTORY OVER THE ENEMY

TEXT: LUKE 18:2-5 

THURSDAY FEBRUARY 9th 

Key verse: “I tell you that He will answer them speedily. Nevertheless, when the son of man cometh, shall He find faith on the earth? (Luke 18:8). 
Here is prayer warfare against your enemies, the devil, and the forces of darkness contending with you. The power you are contending with may be strong. Like this widow, the Bible says the judge was wicked. He did not fear God, and neither did he regard man. Who then would move him? Here was this widow, a helpless woman. The widow came to him and said, “My opponent is taking away my property. Please judge the case between me and my opponent and give me back my property.” But this judge was so wicked that he did not respect the widow. He did not pity the widow. But there was one weapon that the widow used, which the Lord revealed to be very powerful and effective against the enemy. That weapon is continual praying, continual calling upon God, and continual coming to God in prayer. It is importunity in prayer! 
Each time that widow came pleading for justice, there was an impression in that wicked judge. There was a kind of resisting force; an evil attitude from the man against her. Each time that widow came, she stood helpless and weak. But she kept coming all the same. She was not discouraged but kept coming and this weighed down on the wicked man. Although the man was resisting, his resistance died with time. His resistance faded with time and he had to give up and bow to the pressure. Eventually, he said, “I am dying, I had better settle this matter for I am made restless by this weapon of continual coming.” The Lord is saying, no matter how powerful those demonic forces are, keep on praying, keep on calling on the Name of Jesus, and keep on reciting the scriptures. Every time you pray, you release a great force and attack the enemy. Every time you say something, pray or quote God’s promises, sing a song, and manifest your faith against the devil, you are releasing a great force against him and he will eventually bow to your superior power. That is the truth: by continually praying, you can overcome a strong enemy. Why should you strike once and run? No, keep on bombarding the enemy until he gives way for you!

Thought for the day: Pray until the answer comes

Song for the day: Pray until something happens

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 7-9; Matthew 25:31-46

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...
For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
