Ye Are My Friends If Ye Do Whatsoever I Command You

Gods blessings shall follow you continually, for taking the time to study.

Ye Are My Friends If Ye Do Whatsoever I Command You

Text: Jeremiah 2:  I – 9      
Thursday February 1st

Key verse: John 15: 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. 
Jesus said I call you not servants but I call you friends. A servant does not know all the master doeth but a man is ready to open the whole of his heart to a friend. It means some are in the level of servants; you may not be trusted with weighty things. You may not be trusted with the words of the Lord in confidentiality. I call you not friends but I call you servants because a servant knoweth not all his master doeth. But he came to some people and said, “I call you friends.” I have proved you. Can you see the levels of relationship! All the while, they were not friends but servants. It took time to become friends after He had checked on them; He tested them, weighed them and saw their stability. He now called them friends. So, man has disappointed the Lord so much. 
Israel was holiness to the Lord. The Lord told them if you will remain with Me and obey My word, you will be unto Me a kingdom of priest and a holy nation. The people agreed to obey God and keep His word but did not continue. Now it has become a thing of the past. God is lamenting about the nature of man. “I remember the days of your youth and the period of your espousal when I espoused to you and you were also espoused to Me. When you went after Me in the wilderness, in the land that was not sown. You were submissive to Me.” Israel was holiness unto the Lord and the Lord released Himself to protect Israel but Israel did not continue. Israel have turned away from holiness. The Lord is asking, “Am I responsible for the change in your life? Is the fault with Me for the change in your attitude towards Me? What iniquity have I done?”  Now check on that person. You have watched me over that person’s life. What iniquity do you see in me that that person is turning away? He is accusing seriously and abusing; promising to have nothing to do with me. He has turned away. You have been with me. What iniquity have you really seen in me? It is the nature of man. Stability is the problem of man. Jesus knows what is in man. 

Thought for the day: Man has disappointed the Lord so much. 

Song for the day: What a Friend we have in Jesus

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 14-15

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...

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...
