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

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

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...
