More Comments And Clarifications On Family Planning 

Tuesday, March 19th

Text: Genesis 35: 16 - 20
Key verse: Psalm 127:3 “Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD; and the fruit of the womb is His reward.” 
Be wise in making decisions. Someone may decide not to give birth to many children because he may not be able to cater for them. Some of them may end up as vagabonds and not even go to school. God is not against that wisdom because He does not want you to have wayward children. However, God gave Jacob many children; twelve boys and a girl. Jacob was fruitful indeed and multiplied and replenished the earth. Some people desire to raise large families like Jacob. They are not sinning. If there are enough resources and they decide to raise large families, it is not sinful. The one that gives birth to one or two is not sinning either. Let everyone be convinced of what he can do. The scripture does not compel one couple to replenish the earth. Let each family apply wisdom. Many women die during childbirth because their bodies become so weak that they can’t pass through anymore. Did they go to heaven? We are not clear. Do not misapply scripture. Don’t give birth to children that will cause trouble in society; you will be responsible for making human settlement difficult by wayward children, Eli died because of his wayward children.  
Comment: There are methods and drugs which doctors use to prevent conception. The natural method works sometimes and sometimes it does not because in some homes, the woman may agree to use the calendar method but the man may not cooperate.  
Clarification: I am grateful you understand because some people rather abuse us. In fact, some have left HOREMOW, as seen from the internet because Pastor permitted the use of contraceptives. Surprisingly, some of them are not even married. Some people refuse to use medicines. What about praying without results? When Jesus said, “O Lord, remove this cup from Me”, was it done? So, in addition to faith and prayer, God has made other provisions. Do not be misled and die in ignorance.

Thought for the day: Wisdom is profitable to direct.

Song for the day: My wife shall be a blessing, my children around my table …

Bible reading for the day: Judges 17-19

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 ...
