ABRAHAM THE FATHER OF FAITH IN CHRISTIANITY

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: ABRAHAM THE FATHER OF FAITH IN CHRISTIANITY
TEXT: GENESIS 12:1-3  
THURSDAY APRIL 27TH 

Key verse: Hebrews 11:10 “For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.”
From our text, you can see in this scripture the Lord chose Abraham. I am talking to you about the line of Christianity. The Lord chose Abraham, Abraham was barren, and he did not have children. The Lord said, [paraphrased], “Don’t worry, with your wife, I am bringing you up to be a great nation, the mighty shall come of you. Now through you shall be born one, who will be a blessing to all the people in the world”. So, you can now see what he was doing, it is a promise to Abraham, “Jesus will be coming through you and the seed I promised in the garden, I told the devil in the garden he is coming to destroy Satan and free mankind from him. I will pass him through you, Abraham”.  You can see what God has done and where Christianity started. It started in the garden. It is following a line and it is going forward. When God promised Abraham, I am going to give you a seed and by that seed multitude shall come to the world, at that time Ishmael has been born.
There are many religions on the earth. religion is the way people choose, to take them to God. The way people follow, to take them to God. Now, there is Christianity living side by side with other religions. In a family, there can be Muslims, there can be Christians. In a family, there can be people of other faith and all of them will be saying, “We are serving the same God”. It is my responsibility as a preacher of Christ, sent to preach the gospel of salvation, the gospel of righteousness and eternal life, to tell you the truth and the difference. Christianity, let me tell you how it started. It started by promise, a promise God made to the devil in Genesis 3:15, “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman and between thy seed and her seed, it shall bruise thin head and thou shalt bruise his heel”. This is where Christianity started from the very beginning even between Adam and his wife Eve, the promise that there shall be Christianity, there shall be Christians had been given at that time.

Thought for the day: God’s promise marks the beginning of Christianity

Song for the day: When I remember God’s promises, I shout Alleluia…

Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 17-18; Luke 21:1-19

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...
