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

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...

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...
