Jesus Christ Commissioned Paul the Apostle        

Friday June 14th

Text: Acts 9: 11 - 16
Key verse: 2 Timothy 1:1 “Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus.”
Why does your preaching lack the word; lack the wisdom, application and authority of the word? That is why you cannot point to a true preacher, true converts, true mentees or people you have mentored. The members of your church will behave as you do. It takes a pastor after God's heart who is called and trained by God Himself to make others righteous, holy and true according to the will of God. It is God that gives those pastors ability to teach the holy word of truth and unite true believers in the church into one body. When Jesus quoted the word, Satan gave up. Use the word not your philosophy. Paul said I am among you as one that knows nothing except Jesus and Him crucified. Be immersed in Christ and in His word. God called Paul and gave him grace to build the church, a ministry of truth and holiness.
God gave Paul grace to the Gentiles, who were majority in the church. God gave him a calling to face the Gentiles with the mystery of truth and the life of holiness it produces. Paul said, God came to him by revelation. Let us be very careful because many people want to fight against revelation. They want to render revelation irrelevant. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today and forever. He speaks by revelation. We are witnesses to this. So, revelation is still there. It is still working 
The apostles recognized the hand of God in the life of Paul just as the sons of the prophets recognized the power and spirit of Elijah in the life of Elisha and bowed to him. The apostles recognized the hand of the Lord upon the ministry of Paul, so much so that Peter said. “I read all the epistles of Paul and I saw that you will need grace to understand his writings. It even requires a maturity to understand.” (Paraphrased) That is what Peter said of Paul. Paul also was so confident of himself that he said God had given the ministry of reconciliation to him. 

Thought for the day: The apostles recognized the hand of God in the life of Paul  

Song for the day: Paul and Silas, they prayed, they sang, the Holy Ghost came down

Bible reading for the day: Psalms 50-55

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...
