Do Not Settle For The Permissive Will Of God In Marriage  

Text: Numbers 24:14-22        

Friday 7th March

Key Verse: There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Proverbs 14:12
God knows how to allow people have their own way. The prodigal son’s father allowed his son, not according to his will. If he did not allow him, the young man would not give him peace. Eventually his son would affect others. God is a witness that Balaam was stopped but he refused. He was chastised but he refused to listen, so he was allowed.
God allowed Balaam to go and do his own will. God would still be glorified. Balaam went to hell, but the virtuous words and inspiration of Balaam remained for our righteousness. God can allow you to marry a sinner to your hurt, because of your disobedience. You may end up in hell, but God would remain faithful as a God of truth and love. Our God is a wise God. The father of the prodigal son allowed his son to have his will, certainly with much pressure on the father and rejection of the father’s instruction. The prodigal son had devised a way to his own hurt. If the father did not allow him, he too would suffer from the son’s continual troubling. The same thing goes for those who are solemnly warned against marrying each other, because of blood group or dangerous illness but refused to listen.
It was for mundane things that Balaam was carried away, otherwise, the Lord had told him, “Do not go with them.” Now that his heart was bent on going with them; in other words, the Lord gave him His permissive will to satisfy his carnal desire, but he later paid dearly for it. You will certainly regret it, if you insist on your will, to marry someone you know clearly the Lord has not approved for you. What you think you will benefit from the person shall turn to vanity and vexation of spirit.
Thought For The Day: God knows how to allow people have their own way. 
Song of the day: Follow, follow, I will follow Jesus………  
Bible Reading For The Day: Joshua 8-10

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. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
