OBEDIENCE AND SUBMISSION IN THE FAMILY

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

TOPIC: OBEDIENCE AND SUBMISSION IN THE FAMILY

TEXT: MATTHEW 22: 37-39  

SUNDAY NOVEMBER 12TH

Key verse: Matthew 22: 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 
Both parents have headship over children. The Christian family must recognize the headship of Christ and willingly obey and submit to Him fully. The Christian family must dedicate itself to loving the Lord God with all their heart. God must come first and not the husband, wife, or children. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God is the first commandment. So, first things first. Woman, it is the Lord your God first, not your husband. You should love him, but God first. The man should love his wife but secondary to Christ. Children should love their parents, but their first love should be for Christ. The first love of everyone in the family should be to the Lord God. Parents should cherish their children, which is the second commandment, and should come after the first command. The first is the Lord your God. If the family has Jesus as the head, they should love Him with all their heart, soul, might, and strength.  
The husband's first duty in the family is to direct the love of the wife and children to God; not to himself.  Not your will, but God’s will; because He is your head and your God. Let your first love be directed at Him. Do not stop your wife from loving God. Give her time to worship God. It is one of the ways you will show your love for the Lord. Give her time to pray and study the scriptures and know her God. That is an expression of your love for God. Give her time to fellowship and attend conferences in her sincere love for God. Provide means of transportation for your wife and children to Christian meetings. God must come first in everything, and our actions should reflect that. When your children are not serious in the house of God but are serious in school; when you spend much money to send them to school but leave them at home when it is time for fellowship, that reflects how misplaced your priorities are. First things first: Love God, direct them to the love of God.   

Thought for the day: The Christian family must recognize the headship of Christ.

Song for the day: Abraham’s blessings are mine

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 1-3; Hebrews 9

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 Spirit Will Follow You To Do My Work.  Sunday 16th November  Text: Acts 16: 9-10 Key verse: Mark 16: 20 “And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word with signs following, Amen.” Continuation of revelation of Brother Dieudonne:  The Lord said, “I am here to gather My people before the trumpet sounds. 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. When My Spirit enters, if you obey My word, My Spirit will follow you to do My work. People will listen to you and follow you. They are My chosen.

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...
