Avoid Chasing Shadows In Your Prayers (1) 

Saturday 15th March

Text: Revelation 2: 24-29
Key verse: But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine. Titus 2: 1
The praise and worship of Jesus as Lord of lords, King of kings, the Captain of our salvation and the Bishop of our souls, should fill our prayers, exhortation and sermons. Alas, it is not so in many churches today. Instead of Christ-consciousness, there is Satan-consciousness in many Christians and ministers. Believers are made to fear and respect Satan above God. It is as though the victory of Jesus over Satan was not complete; or that the believer has to carry out some ceremonial rites in addition to the victory of Jesus, in order to be free from Satan's power. 
Believers are told that a curse is still upon them: The curse of their parents, family, village, tribe, or ancestors are still upon them. They are told that these curses are responsible for their bad lucks, lack of prosperity, delay in marriage, barrenness, etc. They are told that, for them to be free, they have to go and make investigation and interview their parents or village elders, to know whether there are generational curses over their lives. They are told that some houses have to be pulled down, some trees have to be rooted up, some buried things have to be dug out, some property have to be burned, some confessions and prayers have to be made over buildings, lands, river sides and mountains, to dislodge the devil from his hold, only then the curse can be broken and the believer made free. 
Some give several revelations and testimonies to back up this strange gospel. Faith in Christ and His righteousness terminates all kinds of curse in the believer's life. Know this truth and be free! Our attention is not on the signs, wonders, spiritual gifts, or miracles that accompany a doctrine; for Satan can back up his doctrine with these too. Our attention is rather on the scriptural authority of the doctrine. We exalt the salvation of the souls of men from sin, and their eternal life above healing, deliverance and prosperity in this present life. These belong to us too, but we must be sure they come from God and not from the enemy of our soul.
Thought For The Day: Our attention is on the scriptural authority of the doctrine
Song For The Day: Trust and obey
Bible Reading For The Day: Judges 6-8

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...
