REASON FOR OUR CONFIDENCE

God bless you for taking the time to study

TOPIC: REASON FOR OUR CONFIDENCE 
TEXT: 1 John 5:13-15 

TUESDAY FEBRUARY 28th 

Key verse: “And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us;” 1 John 5: 14 
Why are we confident? It is because of the following reasons among others: 
(1). The Testimonies of the Bible. God answered the prayers of Bible saints.  That gives us confidence today that He will answer our prayers too. 
Psalm 65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee shall all flesh come. 
(2). The Historical Testimonies. These refer to the testimonies that we have heard from the history of Christianity up to our time. We have heard how God intervened in people’s lives and families; how God answered prayers over the Church, societies, and nations. That gives us the confidence that God will answer our prayers too. 
(3). Contemporary Testimonies. These refer to testimonies of our fellow brothers and sisters - the ones we are witnesses to. They testify to our hearing that God answers their prayers. This assures us that God will answer our prayers too.
 (4). Our Past Testimonies. Even we have testimonies of answered prayers. In the hard circumstances of our lives, during the difficult situations, we passed through; we prayed, we called upon God and the Lord answered. That assures us for present requests will be similar attention from God. 
Psalm 34:4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me and delivered me from all my fears. 

Thought for the day: The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.

Song for the day: Forever O Lord, Thy word is settled in heaven…

Bible reading for the day: Numbers 21-25; Mark 7:14-37; Mark 8:1-21

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.

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 ...
