TOPIC: FACTS THAT PROVE ADULTERY CANNOT CAUSE DIVORCE (2)
TEXT: 1 

CORINTHIANS 7: 12-13  
FRIDAY DECEMBER 8TH

Key verse: Malachi 2: 16 For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that He hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.” 
4: Believers are instructed to remain bound in marriage to their unbelieving partners as long as the unbelieving partners desire to remain married to them. The unbelieving marriage partner which the believer is instructed to condone with commits every kind of sin, including adultery certainly. By this, the Holy Spirit is showing that no sin is strong enough to break the marriage bond. 
5: God loves children and seeks to protect and save them; hence He hates divorce. Divorce does a lot of harm to the children born into the family. One may reason thus: "Will not God also seek to protect the children born to the unlawful marriage?" The God of mercy is also the God of truth. He will not lay aside His eternal truth to show anyone mercy. 
6: Adultery in marriage does not separate the marriages of sinners around us in the world in which we live. Many of our unbelieving neighbours forgive and condone with the adulteries of their marriage partners. Should sinners become more reasonable, forgiving, patient, enduring and loving than the saints? It is not too much for any believer to forgive the adultery committed by his or her marriage partner because even sinners do the same! The Lord of the church has given us a righteousness not lower, but higher than that of sinners. 
7: The Lord has confirmed this truth to many of His servants that saw Him face to face in a divine encounter. Divorce and remarriage to another partner when the first lawful partner is alive is damnable in hellfire. 
Finally, if the unbelieving marriage partner departs from the marriage, such one can go. The believer is guiltless of the separation and should remain peaceful in Christ. 

Thought for the day: The Lord has confirmed this truth in divine encounters.

Song for the day: The grace of God is sufficient unto me…

Bible reading for the day: Daniel 11-12; 3 John 1

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
