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

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...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
