The Fruits Of Physical Work        

Friday June 7th

Text: 2 Thessalonians 3: 7 - 12
Key verse: 2 Thessalonians 3: 10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
The fruit of physical work can be seen in a true and holy minister. Paul worked with his own hands to cater for his needs and others with him. He said, “We work with our hands as examples of righteousness to you; the food we eat, the things we purchase. A true and faithful minister engages in various profitable works. If he works in an office, he does not embezzle money, withhold the salary of his workers or under pay them because he wants more money for himself or else you go about preaching and making money through telling lies; testimony of lies. Some preachers tell all kinds of lies to build great cathedrals; the blocks of that building are waiting for you on the day of judgment because you brought it there without righteousness. The beams and pillars of that house are waiting for you in the day of Judgment because you brought them there by lies. You got the money by lies and treachery. You trade on the souls of men as you go about selling anointing oil, handkerchiefs, apron, holy water, deceiving them of miracles at the expense of eternal life.
The projects of a true and faithful minister are godly and commendable including even the clothes and shoes he wears, the house he builds and any other endeavor he undertakes. He gets money in righteousness and holiness. Every tree brings forth fruits after its kind. He does not entangle himself in fake or deceitful ventures for gain because he wants to build a church. Some ministers send people to the garage and filling stations for fund raising, asking people to contribute including the armed robbers who just finished from their duty and came to refill their vehicles; they should drop money to build a church of God. Corrupt work coming from these corrupt preachers. They do not know the holiness of God. Is God so poor that He is asking Satan to give Him money? Why do you go to people whose life you do not know? John said that they did not collect money from sinners for the cause of Christ.

Thought for the day: Physical fruits can be seen in a true and holy minister.

Song for the day: I have chosen the way …

Bible reading for the day: Psalms 9-17

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...

  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
