And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses. 12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they...

TOPIC: UNDERSTANDING SATANIC TRAPS IV MEMORISE : Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. - (Luke 21:36) READ : MATTHEW 16:13-23 13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven:...

TOPIC: UNDERSTANDING SATANIC TRAPS III   MEMORISE :  Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and wha tsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Matthew 18:18    READ : Matthew 17:14-21  14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, 15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water. 16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him. 17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me. 18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour. 19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? 20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto y...

TOPIC: UNDERSTANDING SATANIC TRAPS II   MEMORISE :  I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Deuteronomy 30:19  READ : Exodus 21:2-6 2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. 3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him. 4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself. 5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: 6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.   MESSAGE I ...

TOPIC: UNDERSTANDING SATANIC TRAPS 1 MEMORISE : Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; (1 Peter 2:11) READ : 2 Timothy 2:19-22 19. Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. 20. But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. 22. Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.  MESSAGE : Hunters usually use the favourite foods of their targeted animals as bait in the traps set to capture them. Once the animals see the food, they rush towards it, a...

TOPIC: TO EARN TRUST MEMORISE :  The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them. Proverbs 11:3 READ : 1 CORINTHIANS 4:2  2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. MESSAGE : Trust is like a delicate thread that takes time to weave, but can unravel in an instant. Building trust is one of the most valuable qualities you can have in any relationship. You need to develop honesty and strong moral character to gain and keep trust. When you're honest and dependable, people know that they can count on you. Getting people to trust you starts with small actions, such as showing up when you say you will, keeping your promises, and being honest even when it's difficult. These daily choices form the foundation of trustworthiness. Some actions that demonstrate trustworthiness include being punctual, following through with commitments, and staying loyal to friends. However, in the process of building trust, a fe...

TOPIC: TRUE FRUITFULNESS   MEMORISE :  Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and make th manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14   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 When God says you should be fruitful, He is not just talking about you being successful materially and having children; He is also talking about you winning souls. In John 15:16, Jesus said: Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Fat...

TOPIC: REACH FOR MORE  MEMORISE :  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. Philippians 3:13    READ : Genesis 26:12-22  12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him. 13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: 14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him. 15 For all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth. 16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we. 17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there. 18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days...

TOPIC: FROM GOOD TO VERY GOOD   MEMORISE :  And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: Genesis 26:13    READ : 2 Kings 4:8-17  8 And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. 9 And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. 10 Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither. 11 And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there. 12 And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him. 13 And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for ...

TOPIC: SUBDUE    MEMORISE :  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10-11 READ : Mark 16:17-18  17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.   MESSAGE To subdue means to overcome and then exercise dominion. In Genesis 39:1-6, Joseph was brought into Potiphar's house as a slave. However, God's blessing made a way for him, and Potiphar put him in charge of everything in his house. When Joseph ended up in prison after his master's wife lied against him, he was asked to be in charge of the prison's affairs (Genesis 39:20- 23). Eventually, Joseph ended ...

TOPIC: MULTIPLY MEMORISE :  (The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!) Deuteronomy 1:11 READ : Genesis 26:12-14  12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him. 13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: 14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him. MESSAGE It is good to grow, but according to Genesis 1:27-28, your growth should be in multiples. God's original plan for us is to incréase by multiplication and not just by addition. Increase by addition is good, but that is a basic expectation. For example, it is expected that a child should be promoted from one class this year to the next class the following year. However, if a child is moved two or more classes higher than his or her current class within the space of one year, tha...

TOPIC: DIVINE RESTORATION   MEMORISE :  And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. Joel 2:25-26    READ : Mark 8:22-25 22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. 23 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. 24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. 25 After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.   MESSAGE Divine restoration is God's act of bringing a person or something back to its intended state. For example, when something t...

TOPIC: IRREVERSIBLE BLESSINGS MEMORISE : For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. Hebrews: 6:13-14 READ : 2 Samuel 7:1-16 1 And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the Lord had given him rest round about from all his enemies; 2 That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains. 3 And Nathan said to the king, Go, do all that is in thine heart; for the Lordis with thee. l4 And it came to pass that night, that the word of the Lord came unto Nathan, saying, 5 Go and tell my servant David, Thus saith the Lord, Shalt thou build me an house for me to dwell in? 6 Whereas I have not dwelt in any house since the time that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have walked in a tent and in a tabernacle. 7 In all the places wherein I have...

TOPIC: CONDITIONAL BLESSINGS    MEMORISE :  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 2   READ : Deuteronomy 28:1-14 1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. 3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. 4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. 6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out. 7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up agai...

TOPIC: THE BLESSINGS OF THE LORD    MEMORISE :  And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. Deuteronomy 28:2   READ : Deuteronomy 11:26-27  26 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; 27 A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:   MESSAGE God loves His children so much (1 John 3:1), and He desires to give them blessings without any sorrow (Proverbs i0:22). However, as a responsible Father, He will not answer some prayers from His children when He knows they are not yet mature enough to handle what they are asking for. For example, no responsible father will give his five-year-old child a car to drive, no matter how much the child asks or begs for it. Likewise, before God gives you some blessings, He will ensure that you have the capacity to handle them and that they will not harm you in any way or distract you from...

TOPIC: WHAT IS MAN? VI   MEMORISE :  And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23   READ : Genesis 2:7,  1 Corinthians 2:9-15 7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 1 Corinthians 2:9-15 9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are ...

TOPIC: WHAT IS MAN? V   MEMORISE :  But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. Luke 12:7   READ : Matthew 7:9-11 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?   MESSAGE What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him? Psalm 8:4 The love that God has for man seems so unbelievable that the Psalmist had to ask the question in the passage above. His love is immeasurable and everlasting (Jeremiah 31:3). He loves us so much that when Adam fell in the garden of Eden, He put together a redemption plan for us so we could be restored to Him. He also gave us the right to sit with Him because of His tremendous love f...

TOPIC: WHAT IS MAN? IV   MEMORISE :  Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7 READ : Philippians 4:4-7  4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. 5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.   MESSAGE Man is very special because he has the capacity to accommodate the Spirit of God inside him. This is such a magnificent thing because God is so big that heaven is His throne and the earth is His footstool (Isaiah 66:1), yet He decided to make Himself so little that He can dwell inside us John 14:16-17). In Exodus 25:1 -9, God asked Moses to build a sanctuary to house His presence. However, after Jesus died for our sins, He made every child of God His temple. This means t...
