Testimonies Of Senator Emmanuel Bwacha: Restitution Beautifies The gospel (2)

Text: Philemon 15-19        Friday 14th March

Key verse: If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself. Philemon 17.
Thirdly, I was once Chairman of House of Representatives Committee for Police Affairs. I remembered the wrong things we did, and those things were haunting me. For example, the kind of bribes they will bring to you; before you do anything, money is given. So, I went to see the IGP. When I was serving then, he was quite a young officer but had risen to Inspector General of Police (IGP) at that time. He was very familiar with me, and he said, “Oga, is there anything, my Chairman?” I told him I had come to him on a different matter. Then I said to him, “Do you remember this, this, and this event?” Incidentally, he knew some of these things. I told him, “Now my eyes are opened. You are the IGP now. I have told you all that happened. I have come to seek forgiveness because it was done against the Government, and you are in a position to forgive or prosecute me because I erred and acted wrongly.” He said, “Chairman, I have heard you, but you used it to help your people.” I said, “Notwithstanding, it was wrong.” He was surprised because these things are strange out there. Some may think you are mad or out of your senses for daring to say such things or take such risks. He said, “These things are gone, please forget about that.” But I said, “No, it is in my record.” So, he looked at me and said, "In that case, I have forgiven you.” I was very happy. I walked out thanking God.
Fourthly, many years ago as a young man, I broke into the shop of an Ibo man and stole some things. The Lord brought the memory of this incident to me after my repentance, and I decided to do the restitution. After praying about it, the Lord laid in my heart to confess my sin to the man and then, buy him a car. I called the International Director to witness it. As I described the incident, the man remembered it clearly and said he had forgiven me. When I escorted him to where the new car was parked and gave him the keys, he was overwhelmed with joy and glorified God.
Thought For The Day: Follow peace and holiness with all men.
Song For The Day: I have decided to follow Jesus…

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...
