TOPIC: WE WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD

TEXT: EPHESIANS 6:10-18  

WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 20TH

Key verse: Matthew 5: 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you. 
Our actual enemies are Satan and his demonic authorities, which we must seek to overcome and destroy through prayer, the word of God, the name of Jesus, and the use of all spiritual weapons and techniques given to us in the scriptures. God has instructed us to leave vengeance to Him. He has promised to handle our enemies.  Our duty is to pray for them and cast all our pains upon Him. There are some among our enemies that God will grant repentance, conversion, and deliverance through our prayers, just as the prayers of others saved us. There are some that He will judge with plagues while He may take away the lives of others. The prerogative is His. 
The scriptural prayers of the early church led to the conversion of their great persecutor, Saul of Tarsus, who later became the great apostle Paul. If they were not guided by the word of God in their prayer, they would have released the satanic spirit of death upon Paul when he was in the camp of the enemy. Similarly, their scriptural prayers led to the death of their great enemy Herod, by divine prerogative. They were not guilty of his death because they did not pray for it. The Scripture shows us clearly how our prayer and action should be towards our human enemies and persecutors. 
Satan is the one who answers unscriptural prayers and decrees of ignorant and so-called believers. They shall share with Satan in the judgment of God. Our human enemies employed by Satan against us are his captives who also desire to be delivered from his power. We who are believers today, enjoying Christ's liberty, were once under satanic captivity one way or the other. Christ came to set the captives free and not to destroy them. We are empowered to set human captives of Satan free and not to destroy them. 

Thought for the day: We are empowered to set captives of Satan free not to kill them.

Song for the day: My hands are blessed, with the blessings of God…

Bible reading for the day: Micah 4-5; Revelation 11

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. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
