Samson Killed A Lion With His Hands 

Thursday May 9th 

Text: Judges 14: 5 - 6

Key verse: Psalm 74:5 “A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.”
A lion roared at Samson but he was not afraid. As the lion rushed at him, the Holy Spirit came upon Samson. He got hold of the lion and tore it. It is the prerogative of God; the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Samson must not meet another lion and say, “I killed a lion with my bare hands so I will handle this one with my bare hands.” Do not try it. Did the Holy Spirit come on you? Did you receive inspiration from the Holy Spirit? Why are you presumptuous? Why do you imagine great things to your hurt because of your pride? The miracle happened by the Spirit of God.
A story was told of an elderly woman that when a vehicle knocked down her grandchild, she rushed to the vehicle, lifted it up and removed her child. Everybody was surprised. Mama, are you a powerful woman? I am a normal woman. But how did you do this? How many people can lift up a vehicle the way you did? I cannot tell. Definitely God wanted to save that child and since God can do everything, He put the power in that woman. With great passion, she rushed without even thinking, lifted up the vehicle and brought out the child. Now, if you say that she is a mighty woman, tell her to lift up another vehicle. Can she do it? No! So, do not be presumptuous by thinking that you can perform miracles. There must be humility. 
Note that there were sick people that Jesus did not talk about? He was not moved to heal them. At the pool of Bethsaida, He healed only one person and left. What about the lame man that was laid daily at the gate in the temple? Did Jesus not pass there several times? You must leave some things until God says so. It is not in you. That is why Joseph told the pharaoh, “It is not in me. God will give a pharaoh interpretation for his dream.” The fact that I interpreted dreams for your two servants does not mean I have the power to interpret every dream. It is God that gave me the interpretation.

Thought for the day: You must leave some things until God says so. 

Song for the day: In Jesus name, every knee shall bow …

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 5-7

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. January Saturday 18th TOPIC: HOW TO ATTAIN BIBLE HOLINESS TEXT: Romans 6:20-23 KEY VERSE: Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. Besides the essential knowledge of the holy life of a Christian, it is good to understand the manner and process of becoming holy before God. Holiness of life is a life that has overcome sin through the saving power of Jesus Christ. Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. It is a life that does not commit sin. 1John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for His seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. Getting this experience requires four things: 1. Know that apart from holiness, there is no alternative lifestyle for heaven. Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holin...
