TOPIC: OVER-CONSCIOUSNESS OF SATAN IN THE CHURCH TODAY

TEXT: PHILIPPIANS 2: 9,10  

THURSDAY JULY 6TH

Key verse: Colossians 2:15 “And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
Satan may use a human agent to inflict you with a plague. But see the devil behind the human agent and war against him and his spiritual forces, using spiritual weapons given to believers in the scripture. You will win over him. Your victory over Satan may also bring deliverance to the human agent who is under his captivity. Some false ministers advise afflicted people to read some portions of the book of Psalms in the night or early morning; some others advise people to take a particular posture, face a particular direction, and indulge in some strange or sinful activities for their prayers to be answered. This is occultism and true believers must steer clear of that. 
Never engage in back-to-sender prayer against your human enemy, because it is not a scriptural prayer. It is against the commandment to love your enemy. Be guided by the scriptures in your prayers as discussed above and you will enjoy the Lord's victory. The reason many have gone into these strange activities to help their prayers or hasting answers to prayers, as they are deceived to believe, is because of a lack of patience and unwillingness to bear afflictions. But the Bible says many are the afflictions of the righteous. Believers, as soldiers of Christ, are admonished to endure affliction. Prayer should be offered to God in faith and perseverance to take away our afflictions, but we must wait before God in patience until we receive the answer. 
The victory of Jesus over Satan is forever. This victory belongs to us who have believed in Him. The following are the effects of this victory in the life of the believer. (a) He has been delivered from the power of darkness and has been translated into the kingdom of Jesus Christ. Satan is no more his master and lord. He is not subject to the laws and authority of Satan and his evil spirits. The victory of Jesus over Satan is clearly displayed in the Bible. Here are some scriptures that spell Christ's victory over Satan: John 12:31; 19:30; Hebrews 2:14,15; 1 John 2:8; 5:4,5.

Thought for the day: The victory of Jesus over Satan is forever.

Song for the day: We are victorious, yes, we are victorious…

Bible reading for the day: Job 33-34; Acts 13:24-52

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...
