DON'T TOLERATE MOCKERS

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Friday, July 29, 2011, In : JULY 2011 

MEMORIZE: “Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God” (1 Sam. 17:36). 

READ: 1 Samuel 17:1-11 

When an ex-champion regains his crown, the experience goes felt after bringing down Goliath who terrorized the nation of beyond joy; it is glory! Can you imagine how young David Israel for 40 days? It was glory! Just as God used David to bring down Goliath, so also will the Lord use you...

NOT FORSAKEN

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Wednesday, July 27, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” (Psalm 37:25). 

READ: Psalm 37:23-26 

It is not strange for people to use as many people as they can to meet a need and thereafter discard them. This is one reason to never put your trust in man. However, there is an exception to this rule—the man Christ Jesus. When He makes a promise, it is not to impress like many humans do; He throws His weight behind it. 

Psalm 119:89 ...

SHINING IN DARKNESS

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Tuesday, July 26, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not” (John 1:5). 

READ: John 1:4-5 

When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy” (Matt. 2:10). At what time do you see stars? They are hardly seen during the day, except at night. It is when darkness covers the earth that stars are revealed. In other words, daylight may be so bright to the extent of covering the stars in the skyline. 

So it takes darkness to expose them. If you recognize that ...

THE MERCY CONNECTION

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Monday, July 25, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever” (Ps. 136:1). 

READ: Psalm 136:17-25 

In Mark 10: 46 - 52, when Bartimaeus prayed, all he asked for was mercy and he received his sight. This tells us that it is God's mercy that guarantees the release of our blessings to us. No matter how good you are or how much you can pray, if God's mercy is taken out of the equation, you may never get what you desire. Besides, many of us know that we do not deserve ...

MAN, VERY UNRELIABLE

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Wednesday, July 20, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee” (Isaiah 49:15). 

READ: Judges 15:9-13 

Apart from worrying about the past and present, many people worry about their future. For those whose parents are well-to-do, they may ask: 'Can I take my rest since my parents are well placed or live in affluence? Can the position or financial state of my parents guarantee my future?' Isaiah 49:...

HOLINESS IS REQUIRED

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Tuesday, July 19, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints” (1 Thess. 3:13). 

READ: Luke 1:74 -75 

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” (Rom. 3:23). Sin separates man from the One who loves him most –F\God. Each time you sin as a believer, you lose a measure of the glory of God. And if you persist, there will be nothing left. Some Christians who were once saved are...

DOCTRINE OF BALAAM

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Monday, July 18, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;” (2 Peter 2:15). 

READ: Numbers 25:1-9 

After commending the church at Pergamos in Revelation 2:12-17, the Lord pointed out some of their weaknesses, one of which was having among them those who held the doctrine of Balaam. In Numbers 23, while journeying to the Promised Land, the Israelites conquered several nations until they came to Moab...

THE WORD: WHAT DIRECTION?

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Sunday, July 17, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.” (Heb. 4:2). 

READ: Hebrews 4:1-2 

To get your breakthrough, you can ask God for the way around the roadblocks on your path, as well as be prepared to act on God's Word even when it contradicts common sense. Another lesson from the story of the 10 lepers recorded in Luke 17:11-19 is that God's Word is enough foundation on which to...

SHINING THROUGH HARD WORK

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Saturday, July 16, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men” (Prov. 22:29) 

READ: Isaiah 60:1-3 

Isaiah 60:1 says it's time to arise and shine. Anyone who is ready to shine must be ready to pay a price. There are degrees of shining. Depending on the size of each light and its make-up, light rays are beamed towards a particular location, with a specified intensity. And like battery operated torches that grow dim as the battery weakens...

GATHERING IN SUMMER

Posted by Pastor E A Aeboye on Friday, July 15, 2011, In : JULY 2011 

MEMORIZE: “He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame” (Prov. 10:5). 

READ: Genesis 41:25-36

Besides your attitude at home, your ability to optimize your provisions marks you out as a wise fellow. Proverbs 10:5 says, “He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame”. It is not easy to gather during a time of lack or famine. It takes wisdom to do so. It takes wisdom to acces...

MINDFUL OF HEAVEN OR EARTH?

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Thursday, July 14, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.”(Heb. 11:15). 
READ: Hebrews 11:9-10 

In John 3:31, John the Baptist said that God is above all. No wonder He is called the Most High (Psalm 91:1) and Higher than the highest (Eccl. 5:8). Following this line of thought, Philippians 2:9-11 says His Name is above every other name in every plane of existence—both human and spirit. This has several implic...

SUDDEN TURN-AROUND

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Wednesday, July 13, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
BIBLE IN A YEAR: Jer. 9-12
MEMORIZE: “When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.” (Ps. 126:1).

READ: 2 Kings 7:1-8

In 2 Kings 6: 24 -31, Samaria was besieged by the Syrian army and so they could not access fresh food supplies. When the food they had was exhausted, there was no way of bringing in more. As a result, the famine was rife to the point that the Israelites began to eat unclean animals and to practice cannibalism ...

SIN STILL SEPARATES

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Tuesday, July 12, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.” (Isa. 59:2). 

READ: Isaiah 59:1-3 

The entrance of sin into this world negatively changed everything. Worse, it separated God and man. Until the advent of sin, fear was nonexistent. Adam was happy to welcome God whenever He visited. But after sin intruded, Adam became afraid and started to hide from God. 

Even today, whenever there is sin in your life, the...

NO SEALED LIPS

Posted by Pastor E A Adeboye on Monday, July 11, 2011, In : JULY 2011 
MEMORIZE: “But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven” (Matt. 10:33) 

READ: Matthew 10:32-33 

If you are running from your enemies, you are making yourself their sitting target and that, brings shame to the Almighty. In spite of the heavy presence of idolatry, to the extent that the Lord Jesus described Pergamos as Satan's headquarters, the church held fast to their faith and stood strong. Is the community you are in bewitched by the pow...

READ: Luke 17:11-19

The Lord Jesus Christ was heading for Jerusalem and decided to go through Samaria and Galilee. In one of the villages leading to His destination, some 10 lepers met Him.
