Moving Forward Or Slipping Back? ~ Kenneth Copeland

Topic: Moving Forward Or Slipping Back? [December 1, 2016]

Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. – Hebrews 2:1

It’s happened to all of us. We get a little of the Word of God under our spiritual belts. We have a few victories. Our lives are going great for the first time in years. Then suddenly we slip and it all falls apart. We find ourselves having to start all over again.

That’s what happened to the people the book of Hebrews was written to. They made such great spiritual progress that they got to the place where they should have been teachers. Then they slipped back so much, they needed baby food again. (See Hebrews 5:12.)

What caused them to fall so far? They let other things get in the way of their faith. They let the promises of God slip, so they slipped.

That’s happened to a multitude of believers in the last several years.

“Well, Brother Copeland,” they said, “we’re tired of that faith stuff.” Or, “We just don’t have time to spend that much time in the Word.”

They’ve turned their attention away from the promises of God. It’s not that they didn’t believe them anymore. It’s just that they directed their attention to other things. They let their Word level drop and since low Word level equals low faith level, they soon began suffering defeat in areas where they once had victory.

Don’t let that happen to you. When things are going well, don’t just ride the tide of God’s blessing. Dig deeper into what God has for you. Give more earnest heed to the promises of God. Concentrate on moving ahead, on becoming so strong in the Spirit you can not only get your own needs met, you’ll meet others’ needs as well!

Remember: Low Word Level = Low Faith Level = Slip.

Don’t get so busy enjoying today’s victory that tomorrow ends up in defeat. Look into the things you’ve learned. Give the Word more of your attention—not less. Keep moving from faith to faith. Instead of trying to trip you up, Satan and his bunch will be crying, “Oh no, that faith man is coming after us again!”

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 5:11-14, 6:1-12

Certainty Of Reward ~ Pastor William Kumuyi

Topic: Certainty Of Reward [December 1, 2016]

Text: Revelation 22:10-21

Key Verse: “And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be” (Revelation 22:12).

A good done to others is an investment that will surely ripen at the fullness of time. Our walk and relationship with God executed conscientiously and in holiness are to enable us pass through the golden path into the glory of heaven. The Lord’s promise of rewarding those who endure till the end is not a fascinating yarn; it is a reality waiting to happen.

God did not hide His programme for the end-time from man. The order is given to have the book of the prophesy open, to be perused by all that they might understand it. God deals freely and openly with all. He does not speak in secret but reveals His plan to judge every man according to their works whether it is good or bad. Those who do the commandments of the Lord will have right to the tree of life through the gates into the city. On the other hand, the generality of sinners-dogs, sorcerers, whoremongers, murderers, idolaters and all liars – will be banished from entering into the presence of God. They will have their part in the lake of fire. Jesus assured His followers that it will not take long before He will come again to them (Revelation 22:20).

We do not know the day or hour but He is coming soon and He will come unexpectedly. Although this is good news to those who trust him, it is at once, a terrible message for those who have rejected Him and refused to be born again. Even then, grace is still available for all believers to help them overcome all ungodliness and bring them to Christ for a victorious well-pleasing life. Never relent in walking closely with God in righteousness. Someday soon, you will be walking the streets of gold up there.

Thought for the day: It is wise to work towards getting a commendable reward.

His Ears Are Not Dull ~ Pastor E.A Adeboye

Topic: His Ears Are Not Dull [Thursday 1, December 2016]

Memorise: Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands. – Job 14:15

 Read: Isaiah 59:1-3 (KJV)

1 Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:

2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.

Bible in One Year: Exodus 10:21-12:42, Psalms 113

 MESSAGE:

Alienation or banishment is a form of punishment in which a guilty person is expelled from a region and forbidden to return. Alienation is commonly used by God in the Bible to cut off sinners from His presence. A good example is the banishment of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden as a result of their disobedience to God. I pray that you will never do anything that will cause God to cut you off from His Presence in Jesus’ name. Isaiah 59:1-2 says:

“1 Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: 2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.”

Christians today are daily challenging God by constantly indulging in acts that are clearly recorded as reasons for alienation in the Bible. For example, some people intentionally dress scantily on the street. Can you imagine somebody purchasing a nice pair of trousers, and deliberately using a blade to rip it to shreds before certifying it ‘fit’ to wear? If you cannot clearly spell out what passes as decent Christian dressing for yourself and your household, then you are the one to be held responsible for the loose behaviour and excesses of your family members. This is tantamount to an open invitation to alienation or banishment from the Presence of God, which explains why some Christians suffer unexplained attacks from the devil. The Presence of God departs from such Christians, making them an easy target in the hands of the devil and his agents. May the Lord deliver every child of God in this category today in the Name of Jesus.

Indeed, the Lord’s Hands are not shortened, neither are His ears heavy that He cannot hear our cry for help. Sin is always responsible for alienation from God. In what ways has your weakness, carelessness, and nonchalant attitude contributed to sin and immorality in your family or the Church of God? Repent and make amends today before it is too late.

Prayer Point: Father, please help me to commit myself to a life of holiness and righteousness in Jesus’ name.

The Outworking Of The Word In You ~ Pastor Chris Oyakilome

Topic: The Outworking Of The Word In You [Wednesday, November 30th]

To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God (Ephesians 3:10).

Do you know there’s something about us, the new creation, that the angels can’t get over? The angels are glorious and wonderful beings. They’re excellent in glory and mighty in power, but they’re amazed at what God has done with us, in us, and for us, because as glorious as they are, God doesn’t live in them, and as “unworthy” as we were, He gave us a new life and made us His living tabernacles. That remains a mystery to the angels; they don’t understand it. And guess what? God chose us to explain it to them.

The Church is to make the manifold wisdom of God known to them. That’s why each time we preach about Jesus, and about the Holy Ghost, the angels love to listen. They enjoy it; they want to know more about the salvation that Jesus brought to man, because it’s something that they only know from the scriptures. They don’t have an actual experience of it. They don’t know what it’s like; so, they hear it from us. That’s what the Apostle Paul alludes to in our opening verse when he says, “To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God” (Ephesians 3:10).

It is, indeed, a great privilege and honour for us as the Church of Jesus Christ to explain God’s wisdom and mysteries to the angels. Now, if that’s part of our responsibility, it means we have to know the Word. We have to live in the Word and live out the Word. In other words, you have to be the expression of the Word of God; and that’s real Christianity. It’s the expression of God’s Word; the revelation of His righteousness and His personality. We’re His epistles.

2 Corinthians 3:2 says, “Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men….” The epistle of Christ is the Word of Christ. The Word of Christ is the Word of God. So, we’re the epistles of Christ in flesh, which means we’re the Word of God in flesh, just like Jesus. True Christianity is the outworking of the Word in me and in you. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for your Word is my life and it makes my heart rejoice. Your commandment is pure, enlightening the soul. Your Word is more to be desired than fine gold, and it’s sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. As I meditate and yield to your Word, my life is transformed from glory to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study: || 2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord. ||

|| 1 Peter 1:12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. ||

The God That Revealeth ~ Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor

Topic: The God That Revealeth [November 30, 2016]

“But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets”. (Daniel 2:28a)

To reveal means to show. If you do not know the secret of life, you will go through life but end up with nothing. That is why God says in his word, I will show you the secret. The Bible recorded that Esau was marked for “the blessing”, but Jacob transformed himself, pretended to be Esau and took “the blessing”. Esau was still desperate to get some blessing from his father and after a long petition to his father, Isaac pronounced the following on him: “And by the sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother’ and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.” (Genesis 27:40).

Isaac told Esau that he will live by the sword. What it simply meant was that Esau would fight battles all the days of his life but if Esau was able to have dominion, then he would break the yoke from off his neck. In other words, Isaac said to Esau, the day you discover the secret of your brother’s strength, then, you will break his yoke from off your neck.

It was sad that Esau never discovered the secret of Jacob’s strength, which is why till today, the generation of Jacob still has dominion over the generation of Esau. Until the secret is discovered, the yoke remains unbroken.

There is a secret to your breakthrough, the moment you discover the secret, you will be free and God will reveal the secret to you.

In our text today, Daniel said, there is a God that reveals secrets. He is the all encompassing God. You must seek His face today and obtain the secret of your breakthrough from Him.

PRAYER/CONFESSION: O Lord, show me the secret that I may not miss my way in life

The Danger Of Unbelief ~ Pastor William Kumuyi

Topic: The Danger Of Unbelief [November 30, 2016]

Text: 2 Kings 7:15-20

Key Verse: “And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof. And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died” (2 Kings 7:19,20).

The Moody Church News had an account of a man who was walking by the sea shore. He was greatly perplexed about the doctrine of the Trinity. He observed a little boy with a sea shell running to the water, filling it and then pouring it into a hole which he had made in the sand. “What are you doing my little man?” asked the perplexed man. “Oh”, said he, “I am trying to put the ocean into this hole!” The man learnt his lesson, and as he walked away, he said: “That is what I am trying to do. I see it now”. Standing on the shores of time, he was trying to get into his little finite mind, things which are infinite.

Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible. The account in our text relays the unfortunate story of the man in whose hand the king leaned, who tried to comprehend the ability of God by his finite mind. He queried the sense in Elisah’s pronouncement on the instantaneous provision that God was about to bring upon the land of Samaria after a period of great famine. He doubted the man of God and paid dearly for his unbelief. He saw the blessing of abundance as predicted by the man of God but could not partake in it as earlier announced. He was trampled upon by a hungry but jubilant mob. Limiting God’s ability with our little understanding and finite mind will always lead to destruction. Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Trying to figure out what He can do and what He cannot do, based on our knowledge of science will be like checkmating Him. God can do anything at anytime (Luke 1:37). The best we can do is to completely hand over our life to Him for provision and fulfillment of His promise, and allow Him to work out the details while we walk with Him in righteousness.

Thought for the day: With God, nothing shall be impossible

Mercy Or Judgment? ~ Pastor E.A Adeboye

open-heaven-2016

Topic: Mercy Or Judgment? [Wednesday 30, November 2016]

Memorise: Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. – Psalms 32:1

Read: John 8:10-11 (KJV)

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Bible in One Year: Exodus 9:1-10:20, Psalms 112

MESSAGE:

The story of the woman caught in the act of adultery is typical of the mercy of God and it was in direct contradiction with the judgement of the old era which did not give remedy to the spiritual problem of the people. Psalms 130:3-4 says:

“3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? 4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.”

This passage is a pointer to the fact that mercy is the preferred alternative to judgment. No matter how perfect you may think you are, you do not need to be asked whether you want to give consideration to judgment when there is room for mercy. However, mercy does not come on a platter of gold. The number one thing you must do to obtain mercy is to repent. Proverbs 28:13 says:

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.”

Another factor that can earn you mercy in the place of judgment is your love for God. This love you have for God will prevent you from continuing in sin against Him. Exodus 20:5-6 says:

“5….for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.”

Our Lord Jesus Christ corroborates what His Father says in the scripture above when He demands love and practical demonstration of it from his followers. He said in John 14:21:

“He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.”

Beloved, if indeed, you prefer mercy to judgment, you will choose to love God. To love God requires keeping His commandments. Finally, if you want mercy in the place of judgment, you need to humble yourself before God, acknowledging the fact that you are nothing without Him.

Prayer Point: Father, please show me mercy in the place of judgment. Help me to love you with all my heart.
