The Place of Handkerchiefs and Aprons in Gospel Miracles 

Thursday 31 July

Text: Acts 19: 11-12 

Key verse: Acts 19:11 “And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul.”
Miracles are acts or events occurring by supernatural power. The power behind such acts or events lies beyond the realm of man. Miracles can happen by the power of God or by the power of Satan. The miracles that accompany the pure word of God and the true gospel of Christ are believed to be from the Holy Spirit. Common miracles accompanying the gospel include healing for the sick, restoration of sight to the blind, opening of deaf ears, the dumb speaking, raising the dead, casting out devils and many other spectacular manifestations in response to prayer and decree of faith. There are general ways in which God performs miracles in the ministry of His servants. There are common miracles and there are uncommon miracles. 
Common miracles are often repeated or duplicated, but uncommon miracles may never be repeated or duplicated. For example, Moses' rod was used by God to perform many miracles in the ministry of Moses; Elijah's mantle was used by Elijah and immediately thereafter by Elisha to part the river Jordan. Elisha multiplied oil for a widow woman, a hollow in the jaw bone of an ass brought forth water for Samson to drink in answer to his prayer. These and many of other unique miracles in the Old Testament performed by certain men of God under some circumstances were rarely or never repeated by them or duplicated in the ministry of others. 
The ministry of Jesus noticed some of these rare miracles such as follows: (i) Jesus turned water into wine. (ii) Jesus walked on the sea and immediately empowered Peter to walk on the sea. (iii) Jesus multiplied few loaves and fishes to feed several thousands of people during a gospel meeting in two separate occasions. (iv) Some people touched the hem of Jesus' garment and were perfectly healed. These were special manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the ministry of Jesus. The scripture did not record the duplication of any of these miracles under the ministry of any of the apostles. None of the apostles thought to pray for himself or lead others to pray in order to walk on the water as Jesus did. None of them asked people to touch the edge of his clothe for their healing, as happened in Christ's ministry. 
Thought for the day: Uncommon miracles may never be repeated or duplicated. 
Song for the day: All power belongs to JesuBible reading for the day: Isaiah 57-59

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
