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!

Hold On To Your Faith

Anchor Scripture: “ Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him:” – Job 13: 15a Scripture References: Job 23: 8 – 12 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Another word for faith is TRUST. So, this morning, God is calling us to trust Him whatever our situations might be. The natural man will instinctually try as hard as possible to avoid pains and discomforts. However, the book of Job 5: 7 speaks a truth that is a common heritage of all humans. It says, “ Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.” And Job 14: 1 corroborates this truth, saying,  “ Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.” These are truth which no man has been able to disprove. Resting on these Scriptures, I do tell people during Bible classes that there is no man without his own trouble, no matter how little . And this is true irrespective of whom you are, what you have and or where you were born; we all have our own measures of troubles. The pro

UNDERSTANDING THE WILL OF GOD: Lean Not On Your Own Understanding

Anchor Scripture: Isaiah 55:8   For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.”   Focus Scripture: “ Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” – Proverbs 3: 5 Scripture Reference: Numbers 14: 39 - 45 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit made known to us that what is called the Will of God is God’s plan or Wish for us as His children, and that these cannot be changed by anyone or anything if we stick with Him. Sometimes, we tend to believe in ourselves because of some things such as talents, ability, resources, knowledge and or wisdom. Because of these things and many more, we take decisions without honouring God in our thoughts. At the end, God makes a mess of whatever venture we embarked on. Such was the Israelites in Numbers 14: 39 - 45. As said yesterday, just as each man has a thought or will for themselves, so is God for every man.

AVOID CONDEMNATION: Walk in the Spirit

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 often,
