ISAAC THE CHILD OF COVENANT

God's blessings shall follow you, for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: ISAAC THE CHILD OF COVENANT

TEXT: GENESIS 17: 15-21 

TUESDAY OCTOBER 31ST
Key verse: Genesis 17: 21 “But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee in this set time in the next year” 
God’s call of Abraham began a new chapter in God’s purpose to restore His relationship with humanity. The sin of rebellion had broken that relationship. God knew that mankind would so desperately need it back so He looked for a person who could serve this purpose. God wanted a man who would know and trust Him completely. From this man would come a family who would know, teach, and follow the Lord’s plans, a distinct nation of people. They would reject the ungodly way of other nations and fulfill God’s plans. From this nation would come, Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world.
God found Abraham righteous to fulfill this plan. Abraham needed to get out of his country, his kindred, and his father’s house to a land that God would show him. There, God will make him a great nation and will bless him and make his name great and he shall be a blessing. Abraham needed a child through which this promise would be fulfilled. Abraham thought it would be through Eliezer of Damascus, his servant, or through Ismael, the son he got through Hagar, Sarah’s housemaid, but God still insisted it would be through Sarah his wife. 
Genesis 17:19 “And God said Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed, and thou shall call his name Isaac and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.” Here God clearly confirmed that the covenant was neither with either Eliezer nor with Ismael. Isaac was the line through which the seed of the woman, Jesus Christ, would emerge. From Isaac, we had Jacob, and thereafter Judah. Jesse, David and after carefully guided lineage, Jesus Christ came forth. Acts 4:12 “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved”

Thought for the day: Jesus is the name above all names

Song for the day: Jesus is the sweetest name I know… 

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 29-30; Titus 1

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...

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.

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...
