SAUL WAS MIGHTY BUT HE TRUNCATED HIS DESTINY.

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: SAUL WAS MIGHTY BUT HE TRUNCATED HIS DESTINY.                

Text: 1 Samuel 11:5-15. 

SUNDAY MAY 21st 

Key Verse: Hebrews. 10:39: “But we are not of the those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul; 

The Lord raised Saul for greater exploits but had a truncated destiny. To truncate means, to cut off short, to maim, or to reduce to a stub. Beware of a great fall. Soul started from well but he was careless. Always ask for God's grace. Stand up for what is right even if you are standing alone. Don't fear, no man will be able to harm you. Take complicated matters to God. Address that matter before God squarely. God loves the humble. Saul, he was humble from the beginning until pride swallows him up. The choice of Saul was a divine call. If Satan pushes you to the wall, do not quit, there is a man of Galilee. Jesus is the Lion of the tribe of Judah. 
When the Holy Ghost came upon Saul, he led the people into battle against the Ammonites and there was great victory such that no two people were left together. When the power of God is upon a man, he is unstoppable. Be careful so that you should not oppose somebody doing the will of God. Do not contend with the man of God. In 1 Samuel 11:12-13 when the people wanted to kill those who opposed him, righteous Saul said, “No man shall be put to death this day, for today the LORD has accomplished Salvation in Israel”. I wish Saul had continued like this to the end. The LORD would have established his kingdom over Israel forever. When you were humble and righteous did not God visit you? Why did you become proud and now this carefree life costs you your kingship? The sin in you will find you out, you cannot hide it from God.
Walk on the highway of holiness and no man will be able to harm you. Sin is a Mirage that Satan offers every wayward soul in exchange for his or her life. Sin and disobedience draw you backward. Beware of backslidden, repentance is still necessary. Turning back can lead to catastrophe. Never underestimate the power of little sin. What a great joy to end your Christian life in heaven. 

Thought for the day: Learn from Jesus and you will find rest for your souls. 

Song of the day: When the battle is over, we shall wear a crown…... 

Bible reading for the day: 1 Chronicles 3-5; John 8:1-20

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...
