No Man Taketh This Honor Unto Himself  

Friday, February 16th

Text: Hebrews 5:4-6 

Key verse: Hebrews 5: 4 And no man taketh this honor unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
No matter how a man shines under you, know that he will not take over because you were chosen by the living God. He knows your weaknesses and as long as you come faithfully to Him and plead for grace, you will have it. There is more to ministry than gifts, charisma, and intelligent preaching. Aaron was a vocalist but there was more to leadership to bring people from Egypt than being vocal. So, please trust in God who has chosen you. Do not strive because your portion will always be there in the Lord. When a couple has given birth to a child and the child is eating food, why worry about another child coming, provided they can cater for them because it is their responsibility? Do not allow envy and jealousy to spoil the work of God, to make the leader envy others, mistreat them, and send them away because of fear that they will take over. The choice to ministry is of God; no man taketh it unto himself.
Christ never took this honor to Himself, but it was a pronouncement of God the Father: He chose Christ; “You will be a high priest before Me, I have accepted You, I have chosen You. I have appointed You today.” So, if you know this why do you envy your brother whom the Lord has chosen as though he chose himself? Why do you not accept his work? Are you against the Creator for making that choice? Therefore, do not envy a person the Lord has chosen. It is of God; it is the way He does it. The Jews were damned because they envied Jesus and refused to follow Him. Do not damn yourself because you refuse to believe, accept or follow someone the Lord has chosen. Note that he who desires to serve God as a minister must work on himself so he may qualify to be chosen, appointed, and recognized by God. Sometimes God uses men to select you; it may even be by voting. If you are born again and righteous, see it that God got at you for Himself. If you desire to work for God acceptably, then qualify yourself by righteousness.  

Thought for the day: Do not envy a person the Lord has chosen

Song for the day: I surrender all

Bible reading for the day: Numbers 22-24

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
