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

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
