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

TOPIC: REMARKABLE TESTIMONY OF SISTER DEBORAH SAMUEL (1)

TEXT: PSALM 103: 1-5 

TUESDAY OCTOBER 3RD

Key verse: Psalm 126:3 The Lord has done great things for us whereof we are glad.
Praise the Lord! God saved my husband and I from death in a fatal motor accident on our way from Sokoto to the Holiness camp in Kwali, Abuja for the international Holiness youth conference in July, 2021. During the week preceding the journey, I felt very weak. I was unable to do my normal daily activities. In fact, at a point, I felt so weak that I wondered if I would be able to travel for the program. I stayed mostly indoors, to the extent that visitors would come to our house and stay for hours but I would remain helpless inside, unknown to them. Close to the date of the journey, I summoned courage and called for a sister to come to the house and plait my hair.
A day into the journey, I had an impulse to buy credit for my phone. I asked my husband for money. He told me to wait till the next day since it was getting late but I insisted until he agreed. I went and credited my phone with N400 worth of airtime. My husband dreamt that we missed the first and second buses but that the third bus we boarded outran the first two buses. We prayed about it and came out early for the journey. We waited for long by the roadside for cyclists to take us to the park. When we got there, we were told that the first bus had gone while the second bus had only one space left. Another passenger took the place and the second bus moved. We sat side by side in the middle row of the third bus; a fourteen-seater bus. 
Before the driver moved, he dashed out money freely to the union workers. I asked my husband if the driver was going to dash out all his money before we left the park. The driver started speeding right from the park. My husband reminded me of his dream which was playing out and requested that we should pray against accident. I prayed with my husband and dozed off. Later, I heard a loud blast as the front tyre burst; the driver lost control and the bus began to summersault. I opened my eyes but heard no sound from anybody. The boot cover smashed my leg against the iron as the bus stopped upside-down. I shouted, “Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!” I sustained a deep cut above my eyelid which made blood gush out as an open tap. I pressed a piece of cloth on it to control the bleeding. (To be continued).

Thought for the day: The name of the Lord is a strong tower

Song for the day: He loves me I cannot say why …

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 27-28; Ephesians 5

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...
