For taking your time to study remain blessed. TOPIC: LOVE AND WISDOM. THURSDAY JULY 20 TEXT: JAMES 1:4-6 KEY VERSE: “Let the word of God dwell in you richly in all wisdom.” (Colossians 3:16). The word of God must dwell in the believer richly in all wisdom. This calls for proper interpretation of scripture, right discernment of the truth and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Love must always be pure and must aim at the ultimate good of the other. Wisdom calls for right action to be taken to achieve the desired end. Godly wisdom is pure, undefiled and is given by God. Every man must exercise wisdom in love. Wisdom cautions and advises. Where wisdom is lacking, we must pray for it. • Wisdom may demand withdrawal or change of attitude in order to overcome eminent temptation, recover from chastisement and maintain purity. • Wisdom may advise that some good be withheld from another temporarily in order to reprove or correct the person of wrong behaviour. ...

WEDNESDAY JULY 19 TEXT: MALACHI 3:8-10 KEY VERSE: “For where two or three are gathered together in my name there am I in the midst of them.” Matthew 18:20. It is a settled matter that giving of tithes to God is a divine injunction that is binding on all children of God today and not so doing is tantamount to robbing God (Malachi 3:8). It had been in practice before the Law of Moses and did not cease with the abolition of the Law of Moses as first fruits which came up during the law and got abolished along with the law. The next issue therefore is, “Where is the store house of God?” From the above verse, it should be evident that the Store House of God is the house of God. The house of God is a place where two or three are gathered together in the name of the Lord for His worship (Matthew 18:20). It is a place where the truth about God and His righteous ways as ...
A lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands. Her mum came in and softly asked her little daughter with a smile; my sweetie, could you give your mum one of your two apples? The girl looked up at her mum for some seconds, then she suddenly took a quick bite on one apple, and then quickly on the other. The mum felt the smile on her face freeze. She tried hard not to reveal her disappointment. Then the little girl handed one of her bitten apples to her mum,and said: mummy, here you are. This is the sweeter one. No matter who you are, how experienced you are, and how knowledgeable you think you are, always delay judgement. Give others the privilege to explain themselves.                               What you see may not be the reality. Never conclude for others. Which is why we should never only focus on the surface and judge others without understanding them first. Those who like to...

TUESDAY JULY 18 TEXT :     John 4 : 25–30, 39 KEY VERSE : He that receiveth you receiveth Me, and he that receiveth Me receiveth Him that sent Me.  Matthew 10:40 . Something noticeable in the ministry of the woman in the New Testament is preaching the gospel. The Bible says, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel.” When the Lord commissioned all people to go and preach and evangelise, women were not left out. They were also involved in announcing the resurrection of Jesus Christ. They went out and preached everywhere. Two women preachers appeared prominently in the ministry of Jesus Christ:  1.        The Woman of Samaria (John 4).  From today’s reading text, we see that the woman of Samaria received the experience of salvation, the next thing she did was to go into evangelism. I t happens to eve...

TOPIC:  THAT SICKNESS IS CURABLE!  MONDAY JULY 17 TEXT :  LUKE 8:43-48 KEY VERSE:   And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. (Acts 3:16). The term 'incurable sickness' is what men use to describe some sicknesses that have defied all medical solutions. In our reading text, was that not the experience of the woman with the Issue of blood until she met Jesus? What is incurable with men is curable with God. Where men’s effort stop, that is where God’s miracle begins. “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.” (Jeremiah 30:17). Jesus bore all our sicknesses and diseases on His body by the stripes he received and has commanded His min...

Psalm 96:3 Passion for souls works heaviness and continual sorrow in the heart of a soul winner for those who are perishing without Christ. So, saints weep and mourn for perishing souls. Can you hear the mourning of a saint in the following scripture? “For these things I weep; mine eye runneth down with water, because the comfort that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed” Lamentation 1:16 Are you not going to cry for your family that this old Devil has prevailed against? Are you not going to cry for the churches that gather under falsehood? Are you not going to cry and say “Help O God, the Devil has prevailed!” That old Devil laughs anytime he gets a soul for Hell! Are you not going to cry because the Church is running swiftly...

SATURDAY JULY 15 TEXT: MARK 10:10-12 KEY VERSE: “The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.” (1Corinthians 7:39). The law of marriage binds a husband to his wife and the wife to her husband as long as both of them are still alive. Divorce is not an option. Whoever divorces and remarries when the marriage partner is still alive has no part in the kingdom of God. He or she is committing adultery. “For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loose from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if the husband be dead, sheis free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.” ...
