Tell People About God


Anchor Scripture: “. . . joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth . . . .” – Luke 15: 7

Scripture References: 2 Kings 5: 1 – 18; Isaiah 52: 1 – 12, 61: 1 – 3; Luke 15: 1 – 7; Romans 10: 12 - 15
Admonition
Greetings from the Throne of Grace!

Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, while going finally, gave us all an assignment to go into the world and tell the people about Him (Matt. 28: 19 – 20). However, many people today just go to church to seek one miracle or the other without doing what the Master commanded. That is one of the reasons the miracles are not forthcoming because you refused to run God’s errand, but you want Him to give you the rewards meant for those who are obedient. That is one of the reasons your Pastor is prospering, he is telling the world about God (Matt. 28: 19 – 20), while you keep languishing in poverty because your mouth is perpetually shut against the Word of God.

A little Israelite girl found herself a common maid (slave) in the land of Syria, a pagan country that came to ravage Israel through a war. On getting there, she found herself a maid to the wife of the chief warrior, Naaman, whose host took her away from the comfort of her parents and native land and whose generousity changed her status from being a free individual to a savage.

The little slave girl, however, did not allow the Syrians’ brutality in war to stop her from proclaiming the name of God Israel. I mean, she refused to loathe her precarious situation, she went ahead, opened her mouth and announced that there is a God in Israel who could do all things, including healing Naaman of his shameful disease, leprosy. Naaman heard and the rest, today, is history.
Ordinarily, that is where most preachers see in that story, but the greatest miracle that happened in that chapter of the Bible which most preachers don’t ever and may never see is the salvation of Naaman’s soul. In verse 17 and 18 of that 2 Kings 5, Naaman, a pagan, became born-again! He gave his life to God. By implication, given his position in Syria, he wouldn’t have less than fifty people in his house. And if the man of the house has believed, who else in the house wouldn’t?

So, a large number of people gave their lives to God (Jesus Christ), just because one small slave girl decided to announce God.  God, therefore, decided to reward her by ensuring that the story was written down for generations upon generations, as long as the world lasted, learn about her. By implication, she FINISHED STRONG with God!

As we close today, if you desire to FINISH STRONG in and with God, open your mouth and tell people about God.

Till tomorrow when we shall meet again on this beautiful journey of FINISHING STRONG together, keep keeping on in Him!

Anchor Scripture: Romans 8: 1 “ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”  Focus Scripture: “ This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. ” –Galatians 5: 16 Scripture References: John 3: 1 – 8, 16 - 19; Romans 1: 18 – 32, 1 – 14; Galatians 5: 16 – 26; 1 John 2: 15 - 17 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit of God admonished us to watch the companies we keep because our association with them could make us do things that are contrary to the Kingdom’s choice. And an example was given of Jehoshaphat. May God help us in Jesus name, amen. Today, we are being told to “Walk in the Spirit”. The Holy Spirit was given to us as Guardian to help and keep us in and on the way to the Kingdom. The Holy Spirit is a teacher, meant to teach us right from wrong and He helps us in making the right choices. Most of...

AVOID CONDEMNATION: Stop Impersonating

Anchor Scripture: Romans 8: 1 “ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”  Focus Scripture: “ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness .” – Romans 1: 18 Scripture References: Matthew 7: 21 - 23; John 1: 12 – 13, 3: 1 - 7; Acts 19: 1 – 6, 11 – 20; Romans 1: 18 – 32; 2 Corinthians 13: 4 - 10 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace!

BEWARE OF BALAAM'S DOCTRINE

Anchor Scripture: “. . . Verily when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.” – 1 Corinthians 9: 18 Scripture References: Numbers 22: 1 – 7; 1 Corinthians 9: 1 –27; Matthew 10: 7 - 8 The Balaam’s doctrine is it that encourages children of God to do the work of God for carnal rewards. And the children of God caught up in the web of Balaam’s doctrine are those who preach the Gospel of Christ for one reward or the other. Such “servants of God” use a lot of scriptures to spiritualize and legalize their collections of material and carnal rewards from the congregation. However, we thank God for servants of God like Apostle Paul, who really followed the teachings of our Lord, Jesus Christ, in that he refused to abuse the authority he had over his congregations by which he could have become rich and wealthy as many of our ministers today, for Jesus Christ commanded in Matthew 10: 7 - 8 thus: “ And as ye go, pre...
