REMOVE SLANDERERS FROM THE HOUSE OF GOD

God bless you for taking the time to study.

REMOVE SLANDERERS FROM THE HOUSE OF GOD
TEXT: 2 Samuel 16:1-4 

SATURDAY MAY 27th 

Key Verse: Psalm 101:5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him will I cut off,
Slanderers do not carry the message of love but of resentment. They are destroyers and not builders. Their aim is self-promotion and self-protection. When Ziba came to David in the wilderness as he fled from Absalom, to get David’s favour, he came with a slander against Mephibosheth. King David asked him of Mephibosheth his master, he said Mephibosheth was busy preparing himself in Jerusalem to be king saying, “Now the Lord shall restore to me the kingdom of my father that was snatched away from the hand of Saul.” David wondered why a lame man he has shown mercy should act this way knowing he saved him from death because of the covenant he made with Jonathan his father. With all he has done for Mephibosheth, why should he seek his hurt? He gave Ziba the vineyard he once restored to Mephibosheth. See what a slander can do! You can understand why David vouched to cut off slanderers from his domain. 
When David returned to Jerusalem, Mephibosheth came to David looking unkempt from his head to his feet. David wondered if this was the man Ziba said was preparing to take over the kingdom. Mephibosheth’s defense showed Ziba his servant slandered him. “He that is a slanderer, I will cut off!” This is the resolution of a godly leader. Their aim is to destroy the throne with their tongue. If you depend on their evil report, you will oppress the innocent under your government. They look so true that if you are not careful, they may not require further investigation. Un-investigated actions on lies or slanders have made many people cry against their leaders to God for maltreatment on matters they are not aware of. That is why the Bible emphasizes that matters should only be established where there are two or three witnesses. The Bible says also that it is not according to the law of the Romans to condemn a man until he has the opportunity to speak face to face with his accusers, Acts 25:16.

Song for the day Satan shall never, never conquer me (3x) …

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...

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...

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
