Corrupt Ministers In The World 

Sunday April 14th

Text: 2 Corinthians 11:13-15
Key verse: 2 Corinthians 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
Not all ministers or ministries in the world are good. There are corrupt ministries in the world; evil ministries. Whatever name they bear. Some bear good names but they are evil. There are corrupt ministers in the world and some of them are very famous, popular but corrupt and evil. From our scripture text, there are three things to take note of. Firstly: They are false apostles. They are not the correct apostles. Many ministers with great titles; apostles this, apostle that, are false. They not true. They are not correct. They are not original. Secondly: They are deceitful workers. All they do and say you is deceit; their preaching, teaching, books and testimonies they share to upgrade themselves are deceitful. These people use their mouths to promote themselves by formulating deceitful testimonies. Nevertheless, the foundation of God standeth sure having this seal, the Lord knoweth them that are His. 
Thirdly: transforming themselves by practice. They learn it as a musician learns his music. They learn how to humble themselves, smile, say things to capture souls and show pretentious godliness in their lives. They engage themselves in learning these things but they are deceitful people. They are false. They are not original. They learn to sympathize and empathize. They learn their craft. Many years ago, a Muslim mechanic used to repair my car. Whenever I asked him how much I would pay, he would say, “Ah Pastor! I do not want to collect money from pastor. You only need to pay for the faulty materials I have replaced; I replaced the fuel pump. Just give me the money for the fuel pump.” I thought that he loved Jesus, not knowing that they have mastered their deceitful craft. I later understand that he did not change it but that instead of paying him for workmanship, you would end up paying much higher for the fuel pump. So, you will be rejoicing that you have found a kind mechanic not knowing that he is cheating you. 

Thought for the day: Some bear good names but they are evil.

Song for the day: You are highly lifted up, there is no one like You, Alleluia …

Bible reading for the day: 1 Kings 13-15

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...
