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

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...
