Recommended Attitude Towards the Word of God 

Monday April 8th

Text: Galatians1:6-10
Key verse: 1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone into the world.
The following are the recommended attitude towards the word of God: Receive it. Whichever way it comes, whatever He says unto you, do it. It means, receive it, judge it, prove it. Prove it by the scriptures. Try it. Who is speaking? Check it up. When we say receive prophecy, receive revelation, is it all prophecies, revelations and dreams? No because Satan has his dreams, revelations and prophecies too. Therefore, try it, test it, prove it. That is what the word says. Examine it. By what standard? Examine it by the standard of the word of God. Reject it if the prophecy speaks something different about Jesus that the scripture has not said. Reject it. If a revelation appears to justify iniquity which the scripture has condemned, reject it. It is not from the Lord. It is not the word of God. 
From our reading scriptural text, Paul had outlined the gospel truth to the disciples and said, people will still come and preach but let nobody say any other thing. I know what I gave you. I know I spoke by the inspiration of God to you. I am so full of understanding. If any man says anything about Jesus, contrary to what I said, the curse of God should be upon that man. If any man teaches anything about righteousness and holiness, contrary to what I have said to you, the curse of God should be upon that person. Paul did not say that people will not preach. People will come and preach but it should be in the same line, teaching the same thing. Yes, everybody that wants to go to Lagos passes through this highway. If somebody takes another road somewhere say, “No. Please leave me alone. I don’t know where we are going.” That is what Paul was saying. He did not say that nobody will preach again. People will preach. He was not the only preacher but other preachers must keep to the standard; not different from what the Holy Spirit gave to the apostles.

Thought for the day: Examine revelations by the standard of the word of God

Song for the day: Who has the final say? Jehovah has the final say …

Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 23-24

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...

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...
