Topic: Get Rid Of Pride 

Thursday 7th August

Text: Daniel 4: 30 – 32 
Key verse: "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.” Philippians 2: 3 
Get ride is the father of all sins, as the devil is the father of all sinners. Pride is first a thought in the heart which manifests in words, looks and actions, it is a self-made ego or upliftment. The proud man sees himself great, important and better than many. Because of pride in his heart, he looks down on others. He exaggerates his personality and practically lies to earn more honour, respect and recognition of men. He envies those who are better, greater, higher and more intelligent than him. The proud man celebrates his achievement so greatly without regard to the God of heaven. He announces his good deeds for human recognition and praise. He speaks proudly and arrogantly. He is boastful. The proud man attracts divine judgment speedily. Satan is the originator of pride. He brought pride into the world and by pride destroyed mankind in the world, 
Pride will remove God's presence and glory from you. Pride will destroy all the goodly properties in your life and will damn you to everlasting hell fire. Jesus is the originator of humility. Although He is God Almighty, when He came into this world for human salvation, He chose to be born of poor parents in the lowest place; a manger. He emptied Himself of the property of God and became human being. He made Himself to serve as a servant, even of men. He was humble and obedient to the point of dying on the cross! Let this humble spirit of Jesus be in you. 
Go to God in prayer to save you from pride and make you humble. God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. Resist pride in your thought, words, looks and action. Give honour and respect to people. Give glory to God for everything in your life. Be nothing in your own sight. Speak in a humble way. Make humble choices. Avoid carnal competition with others. Remain permanently with Christ in His humility. In this way, you will enjoy His greatness in this life and in the life to come.

Thought for the day: God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 

Song for the day: Wash me O lamb of God

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 12-14

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...

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...
