TOPIC: USE OF OBJECTS FOR MIRACLES DESTROYS FAITH IN GOD 

TEXT: 2 KINGS 2: 19-22 

MONDAY OCTOBER 16TH

Key verse: 2 Kings 2: 22 “So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.”
The use of physical substances for miracles destroys faith in the spiritual, for we walk by faith and not by sight. Aprons and handkerchiefs were taken from Paul. Were they also taken from Peter or John? Paul alone in Christian history; not even from Jesus during His earthly ministry. From Paul alone, the Holy Ghost manifested that to cause people to believe in Christ. Handkerchiefs and aprons were taken from Paul to the sick and they were healed, and it happened at a period and ended. That was all; it did not repeat the second time. Now if this is so, was Timothy who walked closely with Paul as a son to him distributing handkerchiefs or aprons? No, because he will not take that unique miracle to become the normal way of receiving a miracle. 
Ministers today use substances and tell their members that they will do miracles. Where did they get that teaching? From one witness thou shalt not establish a matter, from the mouth of two or three witnesses. Apart from Paul who again used a handkerchief and apron that you now stand upon it as a rule. Why don’t you also gather your members before the sea and say members we are crossing this sea. I am going to tell God to divide it. Why not do that if it is a normal thing?  The devil motivated that, not the spirit of Christ because that is not the normal way. “He that enters not through the door but cometh the other way into the house, the same is a thief and a robber.” 
So, those that promote and distribute anointed handkerchiefs and aprons, do not do so by the Spirit of God because they don’t have the Bible as their authority. But do these handkerchiefs and aprons work miracles? They can work miracles because it is not only God that works miracles. When God sent Moses to Egypt and told him to throw down his rod to become a serpent, there were people in Egypt that also threw their rods down and they became serpents. So, the fact that these aprons and handkerchiefs work miracles does not mean that they are from God. It depends on which spirit works the miracles. If it is of Christ, it should be based on scripture. 

Thought for the day: Salvation, healing, deliverance, and blessings are in Christ alone

Song for the day: Only Jesus can save (2x) Alleluia

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 59-61; 1 Thessalonians 4

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...

The Source Of Faith

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
