TOPIC: JESUS SAYS, ‘YOU ARE MY SERVANT … RISE UP ON YOUR FEET’

TEXT: PSALM 107: 23-32 

TUESDAY JULY 11TH

Key verse: Psalm 54:2 Hear my prayer O God. Give ears to the words of my mouth.
I am Pastor Samuel Gida. God saved me from death in an accident in July, 2021. I did not sustain injuries in the accident but I was in pain and could neither sit nor stand. The brethren had to charter a vehicle and physically carried my wife and I into it back to Sokoto. The deeper life pastor in Mafara brought a bone setter to help set my wife’s broken leg because the leg was dangling loosely; only connected together by the flesh. The bone setter tried to align the broken leg, tied it and travelled with us to Sokoto in order to complete the job. Unfortunately, he only passed the night with us in Sokoto and left the next day after charging exorbitant fees. 
At this point, both my wife and I could not move on our own; we had to be carried even to make use of the restroom. Two days later, God healed me miraculously; without treatment or physiotherapy. As morning devotion was going on in my parlour, I asked the brethren to carry me to the parlour. At first, they objected since I could not sit down but was only lying down on my back. I insisted so they came and carried me by my legs and arms to the parlour. When we entered, I told them to place me on a seat. That was how the miracle started. I struggled and managed to sit down on the chair. Next, I heard an audible voice speaking to me clearly, “You are My servant; I will not leave you like this. Rise up on your feet.”
I was shocked at what I was hearing. I spoke to myself, “Myself? I should rise up? How can that be? The brethren have been carrying me up and down like a baby, even to ease myself. Even to sit down here was a great challenge. How can I rise up?” The voice persisted and spoke again to me, this time with urgency and as a command, “Rise up on your feet. Rise up!” I obeyed and tried to stand up. To my surprise, I sprang up to my feet, full of strength and vitality. The brethren shouted for joy. All the pains and weaknesses vanished instantly. From that time till today, the Lord has perfected my healing. Praise the Lord! I thank God for the love, prayers and assistance from Daddy Paul Rika, Mummy Linda, leaders, workers and all brethren that prayed and cared for us.

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...
