BE AT PEACE WITH ALL MEN

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC:  BE AT PEACE WITH ALL MEN 

TEXT:  MATTHEW 5:21-26 

WEDNESDAY APRIL 26TH 

KEY VERSE:  Key Verse: “And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him because he had cut off Saul's skirt.” (1 Samuel 24:5).
Our text reveals the mind of God and the verdict of heaven on anger and other sins that anger produces such as hatred, malice, revenge, strife, contention, injustice, violence, slander, backbiting, provocation, murmuring, division, conspiracy, mischief, cruelty, oppression, obstinacy and murder. Anger is an evil root that produces evil fruit in one's life. Anger affects our relationship with our neighbors negatively. Reconciliation becomes necessary before God can accept our gift, service, or worship. Our Lord who knows the meaning and requirements of God's law more than all religious teachers in all generations declares this truth. A strained relationship with man hinders an intimate relationship with God.
The Pharisees were only committed to external acts of worship; they were not concerned about the state of their hearts. To some people, the internal state of mind and attitude towards their fellowmen are not considered essential to their ministry and worship of God. While their hearts burned with the fire of anger and hatred they continue with their external acts of worship. While they are under the heavy burden of judgment and condemnation for contempt and conspiracy against Christ they continued with their external acts of worship. If anyone worships God with zeal and great commitment, yet with anger, hatred, and malice in the heart, our Lord has declared his worship to be worthless and his religion vain. It is more desirable to have the heart right with God and man than to perform mere outward acts of worship. If, therefore, a man has gone so far as to bring his gift to the very altar, and should remember that anyone has anything against him, he has to leave his offering there and go and be reconciled with his brother. 

Thought for the day:  The wrath of man does not work God’s righteousness.

Song for the day: Make me worthy in the morning. 

Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 15-16; Luke 20:27-47

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. My Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. My Father will order the angels to sound the trumpet. Be ready! Do My work. Gather My people.” When He said that, He insisted and said, “I am gathering My people with My Spirit. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen.

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
