THEME: GRACE, NOT DISGRACE

Memorise:

As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. Romans 9:33
Read: Psalms 23:1-6
23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
23:5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

MESSAGE

Grace is the favour of God to human beings. It is the demonstration of God's goodwill towards humankind in the person of Jesus Christ, and the effects of that goodwill in human lives. The word is rarely found in the Old Testament but employed frequently in the New Testament, leading some to declare the New Testament period as a dispensation of grace. The Christian life is completely dependent upon the grace of God. God's grace compensates for human weaknesses in that God shows Himself gracious in His dealings with human beings. John 1:16-17 says:
"And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ."

God's grace is abundant (Romans 5:17). This grace is not only abundant but can be exceeding in one's life (2 Corinthians 9:14). Grace is one way God makes up for our short comings. Grace covers our human frailties.

Through grace, God uses our very limited strength and resources to do the impossible. This He does by adding His own strength and resources to ours. With grace, your lack, limitations and defects are fully covered. When you have exceeding grace, it means God's provision far exceeds your need. Grace is in action at those times that the Holy Spirit helps us to pray in accordance with God's will when we do not know how to pray (Romans 8:26-27). When you have prayed, fasted and tried without measuring up to standard, then it is time to fall back on His grace. Grace can be accessed at varying measures. To some people, grace may be unavailable, to some, only a little, while some will have it in abundance, and for some others, grace will outnumber their needs. What level of grace do you have access to? If you want to access extreme levels of grace, do not frustrate God's grace that is currently available upon you, do not waste it and do not become a storage tower of grace, but rather, be a channel of grace. Always use grace for the purpose it is given to you. Be gracious to others. Be generous. Live a holy life. 2 Corinthians 6:1 says:
"We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain."

God does not wish that we receive His grace in vain; He wants us to be progressive by growing in grace. God wants us to share His Grace with others for them to taste and see that the Lord is good. May His glory fill the earth, that His name may be praised forever more.

Prayer Point:

Father, let Your grace be sufficient for me. Please Lord; make me a distributor of Your grace.

HYMN 11: STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF CHRIST OUR KING

Standing on the promises of Christ my King,
Through eternal ages let His praises ring,
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing, Standing on the promises of God.

Chorus:
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living Word of God I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
Chorus:

3. Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.
Chorus:

4. Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.
Chorus:

5. Standing on the promises I shall not fall,
List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call.
Resting in my Savior as my All in all,
Standing on the promises of God.

THE SURE REFUGE

Memorise : The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. - Proverbs 18:10

Read: Philippians 2:9-11

2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 


MESSAGE :

Refuge is used in the Bible as a reference to a secure shelter or a place of protection from danger or distress. A refuge is a stronghold that is commonly used for retreat, healing and renewal. Ultimately, refuge is a common metaphor for God in the Bible. 2 Samuel 22:3 says :

"The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence."

In effect, God is our fortress, a strong tower, a rock of defence, our shield, a shade of protection, and a shelter in the time of storm. He is Mighty to deliver, Mighty to save, the Mighty man in battle and the Lord of hosts. What a father does goes a long in affecting the life of a child. Our Heavenly Father does not only neutralize weapons designed against His children, He also protects them from harm. Here is a story I have shared severally:

In the 50's while I was still very young, we had mining activities going on in my village and the roads were very narrow. Nigeria was still under colonial rule then. Normally, white men came in a jeep to collect the gold that the miners got. They were so powerful in those days that the villagers believed that if they killed your child, you have to tell them "thank you" so that you will not be sent to prison; they were dreaded. One day, my sister and I were returning from the farm when we suddenly heard the sound of a jeep coming at top speed. My sister immediately grabbed my hand and we both jumped out of its way, landing in an empty mine pit. We barely escaped the jeep but before we could heave a sigh of relief, we found ourselves before a snake. Because our Father can preserve lives, I lived to tell the story. In Luke 10:19, God empowered all believers in Christ over snakes, scorpions, power of the enemy, and over demonic agents and all their activities.

I prophecy in the Name that is above all other names, God will protect you and defend everything that is yours this season in Jesus' name. Psalms 20:7-8 says;

"Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God. They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright."

The Word of God is trustworthy, reliable and dependable. Whatever you may be passing through, trust in God and call upon His name today, He will give you peace all round. 

PRAYER POINT :
Father, thank you for being my hiding place and my refuge, please keep me secure for the rest of my life in Jesus’ name.

NO STOPPING, NO WAITING

Memorise : And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. - Galatians 6:9

Read: Philippians 3:13-17

3:13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

3:15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

3:16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.

3:17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.


MESSAGE :

Patience and long-suffering are indispensable virtues for all believers in Christ. In the first place, the race we are called into can only be run through patience because it is a marathon. Also, there is hardly any promise of God that can be fulfilled in the life of believers without the combination of faith and patience (Hebrews 6:12).

As indispensable as faith is to a Christian, so also is patience. No wonder it is listed as part of the fruits of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22. Do you know that when your faith is being tried, God uses that trial to generate patience in you? This implies that the longer the period of trial, the greater your level of patience. But, when you fail to handle a particular trial of faith the way you should, it will not generate the level of patience that it should. For this reason, many who have gone through trials complaining saw God as an opposition and therefore grumbled against Him. In the process, some even abandon the faith. This attitude is contrary to the Word of God as recorded in Hebrews 6:12:

"That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises."

Children of God must learn not to be weary in well doing because God has promised us a bountiful harvest if we faint not. We must completely trust in His superior wisdom to decide the timing of our blessings. For instance, He knows the end of every line of action even at the beginning of that action. This is why you must trust His sense of judgment at all times, because His decisions are not limited to what your eyes can see today but also what may happen tomorrow. 

Many years ago, while we lived in a part of Lagos that haboured several drug addicts and reckless drivers, my children asked me to buy them a bicycle. When I declined, they failed to understand. But after we relocated from that part of Lagos some years later, without a repeat of that request, I bought them the bicycle. If I had obliged their request the first time, they might not be alive today. God still deals with us based on what He knows about us today and tomorrow. Be sure that the Lord will not give you the blessings you are not prepared for, lest it destroys you. 

Whenever an expected blessing is delayed or when faced with difficulties, long-suffering is required to remain composed. Even when the situation appears hopeless, just take time to read and study the Bible, asking God to give you a word for that situation. Grab whatever God says, obey and follow-up with action, then wait for the result, and you will never be disappointed. 

PRAYER POINT :
Father, please help me to patiently wait for your perfect timing in all things in Jesus’ name.

THE GREAT PROVIDER 

Memorise : But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.- Philippians 4:19

Read: Mark 6:35-42

6:35 And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:

6:36 Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.

6:37 He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?

6:38 He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.

6:39 And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass.

6:40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.

6:41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.

6:42 And they did all eat, and were filled. 


MESSAGE :

The Almighty God is well known as 'The Lord who provides.' God is the provider and supplier of the needs of all creation, but He gives special attention to His own people. Psalms 145:16 says:

"Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing. He provides for all people."

Our God is gracious Father, He does not only provide the needs of His children, He also protects their interest. He crowns His children with glory, and as a Consuming Fire, burns anyone that messes around with their royalty and honour. Three of God's children, crowned by God with glory, found themselves in such a situation one day. A king, who virtually ruled the world of their day, thought too highly of himself and wanted to rubbish their glory. He dispatched some hefty men to tie them and hurl them into a burning fiery furnace. At the end, the men he sent were roasted by the fire he set up, while the Consuming Fire was with His children inside the furnace to protect them and His glory upon them. They eventually walked majestically out of the furnace into promotion and increased glory (Daniel 3:1-30). This season, any plan to touch God's glory on your life shall be destroyed. Every fire the enemy kindles against you and your family shall devour that enemy in Jesus' name. 

You need to know the worth of your Heavenly Father so that you can tap into His resources. The lifestyle of a child is determined by the status of the father and the resources controlled by the father. Philippians 4:19 says:

"But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus."

If your father has a bicycle and you need to get to school, he will let you ride on it. If he has no means of transportation, you will trek. If he has a rickety car, you will ride in it, with passers-by looking with pity at its occupants. But if your father has an exotic car, you will ride in it and be admired by onlookers. Psalms 24:1 says the earth and everything in it belongs to our Father. Haggai 2:8 says He owns all the gold and silver. Psalms 50:10 says He owns all the cattle upon a thousand hills. John 14:3 says in His Heavenly estate there are many mansions. No wonder Philippians 4:19 say my Daddy will supply all my needs according to His riches in glory. Needs are met by available resources. Since He has all things, then all your needs shall be met.

Call upon the Great Provider and start tapping into the unlimited resources of your Heavenly Father by faith today. 

PRAYER POINT :
Father, You are the Great Provider, please meet all my needs in Jesus’ name.

THE HERITAGE OF THE LORD

Memorise: And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it. - Exodus 2:9

Read: Psalms 127:3-5

127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

127:4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

127:5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.


MESSAGE :

The Bible presents the nation of Israel and the Church of God as the chief objects of God’s fatherly love.  All of humanity have the privilege of becoming God’s children through faith and are then encouraged by the Scripture to imitate their heavenly Father in their daily living. However, as I have always maintained, you can choose to be anything you want before the Almighty God. You can be just a creature, a dog or a cow. You can go beyond being a mere creature to becoming a servant. Being a servant gives you more personal access to God. But you could go yet another step to becoming a son of God.

Sons have tremendous opportunities that servants do not have. As a son of God, you become a co-heir with Christ. That means all that God has jointly belongs to Jesus and you. Besides, John 8:35 says sons abide in the house forever. No wonder David in Psalms 23:6 says:

“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.”

He could say so because he had a Father - son relationship with the Lord. For such sons, even after leaving planet earth, Jesus promised to prepare His Father’s house for them to stay throughout eternity (John 14:1-3). Sons have eternal right to God’s house. Are you a son of God?

If you abide in God’s house, you would automatically flourish. Psalms 92:13 says;

“Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.”

Beyond being rich or wealthy, you can flourish. Age will not erode your opportunities or harvests. In fact, the older you are, the more flourishing you become. This is not for those who merely visit God’s house. It is not for servants but for sons. Some people endure going into God’s house or presence. If they were asked to come for a big contract at 9 am, they will be there by 7 am. But if invited to meet with the King of kings for 8 am, they will stroll into church by 10 am. This attitude hinders people from attaining the heights they were created to achieve. If you find it difficult to stay in God’s presence, you can be sure you cannot have access into His Heavenly home. Those who will enter Heaven must desire to enter that city not made with hands (Hebrew 11:10, 16). It far excels the best of planet earth to the extent that it is simply incomparable.

Do you qualify for Heaven? To what extent do you long for Heaven? How much do you crave to be in God’s presence? How much do you enjoy worshipping the Lord?

PRAYER POINT :
Father, please help me to make it to Heaven and to abide in You forever in Jesus’ name.

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 25 2016.

THEME : ARE YOU A FRAUDSTER?

MEMORISE : Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight. PROVERBS 12 : 22.

READ : REVELATION 21 : 8 :

8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

MESSAGE :

A fraudster is a dishonest person. Someone with a disposition to tell lies, cheat or steal. Dishonesty is contrary to the will and nature of God, and so should not be found among the people of God. The Bible teaches that any prosperity obtained from deceit, fraud and lies will be short lived. Initially, it will appear as an increase but later it will leave you plundered. Some believers exploit fellow believers. This is a great evil because any wrong you do to your brother or sister in Christ is done to the Lord. Today, many people find it difficult to tell the truth. For instance, when asked to go and buy something for the church, they will not rest until they make profit for themselves. Some of those who 'maintain' church equipments will present certain equipment as write offs, receive money for another one only to refurbish that which was condemned. They then go on to use it either for themselves or put it out for sale. Who owns the equipment? Who owns the church? Who do you think you are decieving; the pastor, administrator or Christ? Bread of deceit loads your system with gravel! Each time you deceive the church authority to make money for yourself, you give yourself wounds that may never heal. Jeremiah 17 : 11 puts it this way :

"As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool."

A particular brother received a contract for electrical works in the building of a church. While bidding for it, he presented certain standard of cables and materials but after he was awarded the contract, he bought sub-standard materials in order to make more profit. Nobody knew. About two years after, the building was on fire as a result of poor materials used. Meanwhile, the contractor had died before his secret deal came to light. A number of people believed that his deception killed him. Don't kill yourself; don't die before your time! God cannot bless you if you decieve Him or His servants. Some people deliberately supply inferior goods to the church so that when they get spoilt, they will be recalled to re-supply such items. This is fraud! Remember Ananias and Sapphira lied about the offering they gave but never survived it! Neither will any who follows their evil path. Are you fraudulent, dishonest or crafty? Be warned, the end result could be disappointing. Proverbs 23 : 5 describes this as an exercise in futility.

"Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven".

PRAYER POINT : Father, please destroy every seed of dishonesty and fraud in my life in Jesus' name.

HYMN 4 : TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE

Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.

Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.

Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,
Filled with messages from Thee.

Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
Every power as Thou shalt choose.

Take my will, and make it Thine;
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart; it is Thine own;
It shall be Thy royal throne,
It shall be Thy royal throne.

Take my love; my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL MANUAL (2016/2017 EDITION)
LESSON FOUR (4)
Sunday 25th September 2016
TOPIC:- CONSECRATION
MEMORY VERSE: "For Moses had said. Consecrate yourselves today to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.’’- Exodus 32:29
BIBLE PASSAGE: Judges 13:3-7
INTRODUCTION:
Consecration is a process or practice of making something or someone sacred, dedicated and set for the Lord. It also means the devoting or setting apart anything or anyone to the worship or service of God (Exodus 28:41). The race of Abraham and the tribe of Levi were thus consecrated (Numbers 3:12). According to the Mosaic Law, the first-born both of man and beast were consecrated to God (Exodus 13:2, 12, and 15).
LESSON OUTLINES
1. MEANS AND BENEFITS OF CONSECRATION
2. BROKEN CONSECRATION
1. MEANS AND BENEFITS OF CONSECRATION
A consecrated one is called to live a life of purity, free from sin and contamination. How then can one be consecrated? The call to personal consecration demands that one presents himself wholly to God (Leviticus 11:44; Romans 12:1; 2Chronicles 17:16) and be willing to purge himself of all filthiness of the flesh and spirit (2timothy 2:21; 2Corinthians 7:1). This is made possible through absolute compliance to divine instructions given by God in His word (John 17:17; Psalm 119:9; Ephesians 5:26).
Some of the benefits of consecration are:
1. Overflowing blessings (Exodus 32:29).
2. Overflowing anointing (Hebrews 1:9; 10:38; Acts 5:12).
3. Becoming a chosen Vessel of God (2Timothy 2:21, Acts 9:15).
4. Ever abiding presence of God (Psalm 91:1; Matthews 28:19-20).
5. Outstanding victory without a fight (Proverbs 16:7; 2 Chronicles 20:15-19).
2. BROKEN CONSECRATION
A broken consecration is a state of contamination of a consecrated person. We have examples of consecrated vessels that were contaminated by one thing or the other.
1. Samson’s consecration was broken by his disobedience and lust for strange women (Judges 14:1-3; 8-9).
2. Miriam was a prophetess in (Exodus 15:20-21). But her consecration was broken by envy (Numbers 12:1-10).
3. Moses’s consecration was contaminated by anger (Exodus 14:21-28, Numbers 20:7-12).
4. Gideon was set apart for God’s mighty work of deliverance but pride broke his consecration (Judges 7:20-22; 8:22-27).
5. Comfort contaminated David- the consecrated one (1Samuel 17:34-37, 2Samuel 11:1-27).
CONCLUSION:-
God is calling you to live a consecrated life unto Him as a peculiar person and a royal priesthood and He is waiting to see you exhibiting the life of consecration unto Him. Do not disappoint God.
QUESTIONS:-
1. What are the benefits of consecration?
2. Describe a broken consecration.

The likes of Alex odagbu who happens to be a family friend, I remember then when he came to my father to vent his frustration about hardship in his family that if he sees gun he will carry, my father warned him to stop such joke and instead be patient with his business as a young man, he went ahead to join, his gang terrorised lagos and ph then in early 94 he was caught 95 and executed, leaving behind his wife, 3 sons and girlfriend, the family even abandoned his properties. I can still remember his handsome face when he was declared wanted in all TV stations,his own case was greed, impatience and poverty.

3. Shina Rambo

Shina Rambo is one name that has refused to go away especially from the brains of those who witnessed the nightmare of this criminal.
With a name that reminds one of the movie “First Blood” starring Sylvester Stalone as John Rambo, Shina Rambo made a dreaded name for himself, launching attacks that made even the police force fear to battle him.
It is fabled that Shina Rambo will rob a full highway with his gang, shooting sporadically like a soldier at war. There are stories that say he was killed in operation, however, some other accounts say he died like an ordinary man.
Shina Rambo is not dead o, he is now an Evangelist

THEME: THE POWER OF
KNOWLEDGE
Memorise:
My people are destroyed for lack
of knowledge: because thou hast
rejected knowledge, I will also
reject thee, that thou shalt be no
priest to me: seeing thou hast
forgotten the law of thy God, I
will also forget thy children.
Hosea 4:6
Read: Proverbs 1:20-29
1:20 Wisdom crieth without; she
uttereth her voice in the streets:
1:21 She crieth in the chief place
of concourse, in the openings of
the gates: in the city she uttereth
her words, saying,
1:22 How long, ye simple ones,
will ye love simplicity? and the
scorners delight in their
scorning, and fools hate
knowledge?
1:23 Turn you at my reproof:
behold, I will pour out my spirit
unto you, I will make known my
words unto you.
1:24 Because I have called, and
ye refused; I have stretched out
my hand, and no man regarded;
1:25 But ye have set at nought all
my counsel, and would none of
my reproof:
1:26 I also will laugh at your
calamity; I will mock when your
fear cometh;
1:27 When your fear cometh as
desolation, and your destruction
cometh as a whirlwind; when
distress and anguish cometh
upon you.
1:28 Then shall they call upon
me, but I will not answer; they
shall seek me early, but they shall
not find me:
1:29 For that they hated
knowledge, and did not choose
the fear of the LORD:
MESSAGE
Knowledge can be defined in
two major ways; first, as an
acquaintance with the body of
truths, facts, or principles
accumulated in the course of
time from study or investigation.
On the other hand, knowledge
can also be defined as the
illumination of the mind,
especially by the Word of God,
leading to delight and increased
pleasure in God. It should be
noted that whenever the Bible
talks about knowledge and
knowing, it is usually in the sense
of knowledge as an illumination
of the mind by the Word of God.
Knowledge is a combination of
scientific, philosophical,
psychological, and spiritual
knowledge; and this kind of
knowledge is superior to any
other. In reference to the
knowledge of the Word of God,
Hosea 4:6 says:
"My people are destroyed for lack
of knowledge: because thou hast
rejected knowledge, I will also
reject thee, that thou shalt be no
priest to me: seeing thou hast
forgotten the law of thy God, I
will also forget thy children."
As I have always said, knowledge
is power because it is a major
factor that controls the process
of decision making and therefore
ultimately determines the course
of life. It is the level of your
knowledge about any particular
subject that determines your
ability to make the right
decisions about that subject. It is
in this light that Proverbs 1:29
says those who despise or detest
knowledge do so at their risk.
Every Christian needs to know
that dependence on worldly
knowledge may lead to failure,
but godly knowledge guarantees
success.
Do you know that if you know
more about God and His Word, it
will affect you in making error-
proof choices and decisions?
That is why Proverbs 1:23 says,
"Turn you at my reproof: behold,
I will pour out my spirit unto you,
I will make known my words
unto you".
The elements you need in taking
those crucial decisions are
contained in the Bible, prophetic
utterances of genuine men of
God and what He would like to
say directly to you. How much
time have you given to studying
at His feet? Some think it is a
waste of time to undertake
personal Bible study while others
are sleeping at midnight. No. You
are gaining time. At the end, you
will realize you spent far less time
and effort in reaching your goal
than the one who never cared to
give priority to God's Word.
Prayer Point:
Father, please give me
enlightenment and
understanding by Your Word in
Jesus’ name.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Ezekiel 10-12
Psalms 67:1-68:6
AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE
HYMN 9: MY FAITH HAS FOUND A
PLACE
My faith has found a resting
place,
Not in device or creed;
I trust the ever living One,
His wounds for me shall plead.
Chorus:
I need no other argument,
I need no other plea,
It is enough that Jesus died,
And that He died for me.
Enough for me that Jesus saves,
This ends my fear and doubt;
A sinful soul I come to Him,
He'll never cast me out.
Chorus:
My heart is leaning on the Word,
The living Word of God,
Salvation by my Savior's Name,
Salvation through His blood.
Chorus:
My great Physician heals the sick,
The lost He came to save;
For me His precious blood He
shed,
For me His life He gave.
Chorus.
