TOPIC: HE NEEDS YOUR LEGS MEMORISE : And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! - Romans 10:15 READ : Matthew 28:18-20 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. MESSAGE God needs the legs of believers so that they can take the gospel all over the world. In today’s Bible reading, Jesus’ instruction was: “Go ye therefore…” True children of God cannot just sit in their comfort zones and think it’s the best they can do to serve God. If you are a worker in your local church, that is good; however, that’s still your comfort zone. Have you ever gone o...

ARRESTING DEMONIC PRESENCE Thursday, October 11, 2012

-
MEMORIZE: And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them. Mark 6:13 READ: Acts 16:16-18 Demons and idols bow in the presence of our God. If you study how demons related with Jesus Christ and His disciples in the Bible, you will observe that they recognized God’s presence in Jesus Christ and His disciples and they surrendered without much argument. I have always told my children that if we have enough of His presence in us, demons will flee when they sight us, how much more when we command them to go. In Mark 5:1-6, when Jesus stepped on the shores of the Gergesenes, a very notorious, heavily demon-possessed mad man immediately reported to Him even before He said a word. It is very easy to cast out demons when your life is full of God’s glory. The devil and his demons once stood in God’s presence in Heaven but because of their rebellion, they lost that chance. When Jesus came to earth, it was to bring the dominion of Heaven to earth. C...

FINGER OF DELIVERANCE Tuesday, October 9, 2012

-
MEMORIZE: But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. Luke 11:20 READ: Luke 11:14-20 In the course of this month, we have studied that the finger of God can be an early warning sign or a sign that God’s judgment is imminent and inevitable. This is not exhaustive of what the finger of God is or can do. The finger of God is also a medium for casting out devils. When the Pharisees accused Jesus of casting out devils through Beelzebub the chief of devils, He replied: But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the Kingdom of God is come upon you. Luke 11:20 It is not the shouting of commands or acrobatics that expel demons but the finger of God. When in Mark 16:17 the Lord said you shall cast out devils in His name, He means that you should get ready to work with the invisible finger of God. Demons and satanic agents see what we don’t see. When you are in right standing with God and you are casting out demons in...

DREAM KILLERS Sunday, October 7, 2012

-
MEMORIZE: And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words. Genesis 37:8 READ: Genesis 37:1-8, 19-20  Apart from procrastination, impatience, and peer pressure, a factor you must watch out for if you want to reach your goal is the potential killer of your dreams. Whenever somebody or something good is born, the devil assigns something or some forces to terminate that life. When Moses was born, Pharaoh was all over town seeking his life. At some point, when the palace appeared to be the only place he could be safe, the Lord arranged events that took him there. In the same vein, when Jesus was born, Herod was all out to terminate His life. They had to take Him to Egypt to secure His life. If the life of Jesus was threatened, is it your or mine that will not be threatened? Believe it or not, dream killers abound everywhere. When Joseph share...

IDOLS BOW Wednesday 3 October 2012

-
Memorise : Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. Isaiah 43:10 Read: Isaiah 43:10-13 Wherever God is, there is an aura that is unmistakably evident, which is called the glory of his presence. For most people who have had a definite experience with God, it is only the glory of God they could access. Only very few like Moses could go a little further. The truth remains that the presence of God wields the same power as the personality of God because where God’s presence is, God Himself is there. Several things are possible in His presence, one of which is that idols and power behind them not only bow but also surrender to God of gods. A classical example of this is documented in 1 Samuel 5: 1-5. In this account, the nation of Israel fought the philistines and God gave them into the hands of their enemies because of thei...

FINGER OF JUDGEMENT Tuesday 2 October 2012

-
Memorise : in The same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote. Daniel 5:5   Read Daniel 5:1-5, 24-30 The finger of God can be an early warning sign from God, which if disregarded, it could bring full weight of judgement. When the magicians, sorcerers and wise men of Egypt got to a point in the miracle versus magic contest where they could go no further, they were the ones who announced to Pharaoh, “ Sir, that last miracle is beyond our magical powers. This can only be done by God” (Exodus 8:16-19). They warned and left the scene. If Pharaoh had received that warning, he and his people would have been spared but because he rejected it, they perished. So if you see the finger of God in the dream or vision, it could sometimes be warning you of some wrong deeds. The finger of God could also mean that judgement is imminent ...

TOPIC: THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER 4 MEMORISE:  All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 1 Corinthians 6:12 READ: Bible Reading Romans 6:1-23 1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. 8 Now if we be dead w...

TOPIC : OVERFLOWING MERCY MEMORISE : “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;).” - (Ephesians 2:4-5) READ : MARK 1:40-45 (KJV) 40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. 42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed. 43 And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; 45 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. 45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the cit...

TOPIC: AN EXCELLENT SPIRIT  MEMORIZE   Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. Daniel 6:3 READ :  Romans 12:10-21 [10]Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; [11]Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; [12]Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; [13]Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality  [14]Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. [15]Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. [16]Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. [17]Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. [18]If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. [19]Dearly be...
