Jesus Bore Your Sickness And Affliction 

Wednesday, February 7th

TEXT: Isaiah 53:4-5
Key verse: Matthew 8:16 When the event came, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick.
Remember Jesus in your sickness or affliction. Remember that He too bore our sickness and was afflicted. It will help you. Remember He was wounded and suffered pain. He was afflicted. When you know that though you are sick, Jesus bore our sicknesses and pain upon Him. If you remember this, it is going to humble you and make you not feel ashamed because you are sick. For your Lord, He also borne sickness upon Him, sick by our sickness. Sickness and affliction humble you. It makes you not feel proud that you are afflicted, for He also was afflicted. So, remember Jesus. That humbles you. But how long did He remain in His affliction? How long did He remain in bearing our sickness? It was just for a time and today He is no longer afflicted physically. So, if you remember Jesus, it tells you that as Jesus overcame, you will overcome. As Jesus bore those things for a time when He was in the physical body, so you will not bear that thing forever. A time will come when you will put it off. That is why you should remember Jesus when you are sick.
You need to remember Jesus when you are sick because He feels with you when you are sick. The Bible says we are members of His body. He is the head and when a member of the body suffers, the body suffers with it. So, when you are afflicted, lying sick with pain or incapacitation, remember that Jesus is feeling it with you. You could have been up and down doing something for Jesus but you are lying down. His glory is at stake. You could have been somewhere preaching for Him. You would have been somewhere testifying or working for Him but you are lying down because of sickness. You are incapacitated and He feels it. Remember that when Jesus came to the house of Lazarus, He felt it over that man. He felt it with Mary and Martha as He cried. 

Thought for the day: Remember Jesus in your sickness or affliction. 

Song for the day: When I remember His promises, I shout Alleluia …

Bible reading for the day: Numbers 1-2

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...
