The Ministry Of A Faithful Widow

Monday 13th April 

Text: Luke 2:36,38
Key Verse: Colossians 4:17 “And say to Archippus, take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.”
Christian ministry is a service God uses a person to render to Himself and to men. Such service glorifies God and edifies men. When it is rendered by the will of God, the individual has received grace for such ministry. In scripture, widows enjoyed the grace for ministry by the mercy of God. Anna had a ministry of fasting and prayers; fasting is abstinence from food for a period of time in order to seek God’s face and make Him solve problems. The widow must give herself regularly to this in order to:
i. Keep herself pure and holy inwardly and outwardly by the help of God.
ii. Receive regular supply from God to meet her daily needs
iii. Fight and win over enemies in the battles of life.
iv. Receive God’s defence in the battles set against her as a widow
v. Receive comfort from God in every area of life.
vi. Receive guidance from God for her decisions
vii. Minister and edify others in the name of the Lord
Anna was a prophetess, God used her to give messages to men by dreams, visions, trances, and inspiration regularly. She was an intercessor, committed to praying for the will of God to be done in the world. A widow can engage in intercessory prayer to bless the church. She was regular in the temple, rendering whatever service given to her by the leaders. Her lifestyle and commitment kept her holy. She held the child Jesus in the temple and spoke of Him to all that looked for redemption in Israel. There is no limit to what God can use a faithful widow to do for Himself and for humanity.

Thought For The Day: Keep yourself Holy, inwardly and outwardly

Song For The Day: Keep purity power 2x my mind in the Lord

Bible Reading For The Day: 1 Kings 10-12

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...
