Promote Righteous And Holy Living Above Fasting  

Tuesday 7th October 

Text: Mark 11:22-24  
Key verse: James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. 
Exalt the discipline of knowing God's word and obeying it above fasting. Exalt holy and righteous living above marathon fasts. Build a good prayer life. Develop your faith by studying the word of God. Know the promises of God and the testimonies of His power in the scriptures. Study the testimonies of His power in post Bible times and listen to the testimonies of His power in contemporary time. Your faith in God will be strong and you will enjoy answers to your prayers. Although the New Testament did not indicate by doctrine or practice the number of days fasting may be observed at a stretch, when you are persuaded to fast, be guided by the word of God, the Holy Spirit and proper judgment. 
When people engage themselves in fasting without the righteousness of God and proper scriptural guidance, they open their spirit to the manipulation of Satan and demons and may come up with revelations, experiences and spiritual manifestations assumed to be from the Holy Spirit, when actually they are from Satan. When the truth of scripture is abandoned or ignored for these fasting acquired revelations, spiritual manifestations and experiences, Satan gains access into the church of God and into human souls to do his destructive work. 
Unscriptural fasts have given birth to ministerial calling, church establishment and strange power which are the working of Satan. The art of fasting is abused in the church today by ministers, individual Christians and whole congregations who feel that that is the means of securing power, deliverance, victory, and the voice of God but when many of them are scripturally examined, they are in sin, error or ignorance. Promote righteousness and holiness in your life and in your church as a minister above fasting. Fast with moderation. Give yourself more to the word of God and prayer and you will enjoy the rich and victorious Christian life and ministry

Thought for the day: Exalt knowing and obeying God's word above fasting 

Song for the day: You have done me well (3x), Jesus

Bible reading for the day: Matthew 14-17

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...
