His Abiding Word - Pastor William Kumuyi


Key Verse: “These words the LORD spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me” (Deuteronomy 5:22).

Text: Deuteronomy 5:16-22

Books, documents and records are often subjected to periodic reviews. These are usually done to remove such information that are no longer relevant either as a result of new discoveries or as a result of changes that occur in the world.

However, there remains one book that has cut across all human history and does not have any need for review. This is the Bible! As Moses repeated the Ten Commandments earlier given to the children of Israel to this new generation, he reminded them that these were the same laws God gave to their fathers. Though time may have changed and forty years passed, God’s law and demand from them still remain the same. For them to retain God’s favour and have all things go well with them, they must keep to these words. This is even more so as they were getting ready to move into the Land of Canaan. Change of environment, mixture with a new set of people, culture and practices must not make them change from this time-tested truth. There are many professing Christians today who are directly or indirectly calling for a change of the truths of the Scriptures.


Their argument has been that since our world has changed in so many ways, some of the Bible truths and commandments must also change. As a result, they have taken on new practices that are alien to the word of God. They now read, understand and interpret the Scriptures in the light of present-day realities.

To them, sanctity of moral life has been laid aside with prime issues of righteousness and holiness explained away. It is for this reason that the Lord reminds everyone again that nothing has changed in His word. If we are to continue to enjoy God’s favour, we must continue to keep His unchanging words.

Thought for the day: 
Eternal truths are as constant as daybreak.

Dominion Mandate Daily Devotional Thursday,March 3

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...

A Partaker Of Other People's Sins? - Pastor E.A Adeboye

Open Heavens Daily Devotional Friday July 15th 2016 Memory Verse: Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure. - 1 Timothy 5:22 Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 18:28-34 28. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.  29. And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.  30. Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.  31. And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.  32.For it came to pass, that, whe...
