Each New Day Is An Extra Privilege

THEME: WHAT IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES? ANCHOR TEXT: “This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it” Psalms 118:24. Each new day you are opportuned to see is a fresh start, a new opportunity. It is another chance to correct whatever mistake you have made. It is a privilege to start again, or continue what you could not finish yesterday. A new day is like an already signed blank cheque presented, on which you can write any amount that pleases you. Today is the day you have to correct, reattempt, and repent. Tomorrow is a probability; only today is certain. Yesterday has gone, what you truly have is today. If this is true, why then must you wait till tomorrow? What was the mistake you made? What was the opportunity you lost? What was that thing you did not do well, and you intend doing again? Are there people you offended recently that you must reconcile with? Is there a particularly decision you must make, be it major or minor? Are there people you must meet?...

THEME: A WITNESS OR A BETRAYER? Memorise: Now he that betrayed gave them a sign, Saying, whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast. Matthew 26:48 Read: John 1:20-34 20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. 21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No. 22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself? 23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias. 24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. 25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? 26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; 27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I...

THEME: MAKE ROOM FOR GOD 2Corinthians 1-9 You should not be among the many that are living without the precious things God promised.The LORD Jesus Christ said in John 16:24" Until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full. In making plans for your life and your future,stop focusing attention on only what you think you can do and what your resources can carry. You will be limiting God by so doing.When you plan for only what you can achieve by your personal efforts,you exclude God's grace and weary yourself with much toiling and energy exertion.Instead,you should make room for God in every plan you make. Plan to grow bigger and better in every unfolding phase of your life. When you plan for bigger things than your known resources can carry,do so with clear understanding that only God will help you to attain your desires.This understanding drives you to your knees.As you consistently pray and hold unto God,miracle are birthed...

Whatever God Has Donne Is Small Compared To What He Can Do!

THEME: GOD CAN DO IT AGAIN ANCHOR TEXT: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” Hebrews 13:8. God is not just a God of the past, but of the present. He is never limited. The same God of David, is the same God of Jacob and the same God of Abraham, He is still the same. It does not matter what He has done for you in the past, He can do same, and even better. The principle by which He did those notable miracles in the past is the same principle by which He will do it today. That testimony, that deliverance of the past can be repeated. Your stolen laughter shall be restored again. You will still dance again. Your lost glory, honour, your lost purity, your lost wealth and health, your lost promotion, your lost marital bliss shall be recovered. It does not matter when and how those things got lost. It does not matter what was stolen or lost; you shall recover them all. Why am I so sure you will recover all? Why am I this sure God can do it again? First, King D...

THEME : CAST AND CATCH Memorise : There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. Proverbs 11:24 Read : Luke 5:4-7 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. 7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. Message: There are rewards for righteous behaviour and there are punishments for evil deeds. The person who gives freely will never lack any good thing while the one who believes that there is wisdom is being stingy will never receive anything. There are so...

THEME: CHILDREN! FOLLOW THE WAY. MEMORISE : My son, hear the instruction of thy father, And forsake not the law of thy mother: PROVERBS 1 : 8. READ : EPHESIANS 6 : 1 - 3 1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; 3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. Message The Bible teaches that children have mandatory responsibilities to their parents. As a matter of fact, Children owe their parents certain important duties that include the obligation to respect, honour and obey them. Children are the heritage of the Lord and God has a special interest in their well-being. Meanwhile God is a disciplinarian as revealed in Revelation 3 : 19 : “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.” God has decided to commit the discipline of children to their parents as caretakers for Him; therefore, children must cooperate with thei...

THEME: DYING TO SELF Romans 8:1-13 George Mueller once remarked, “There was a day when I died; died to self, my opinions, preferences, tastes and will; died to the world, its approval or censure; died to the approval or blame even of my brethren or friends; and since then I have studied only to show myself approved unto God.” Our reading passage today sheds some more light on this subject of dying to self. “So then, my brothers, we are in debt, not to the flesh to be living in the way of the flesh: For if you go in the way of the flesh, death will come on you; but if by the Spirit you put to death the works of the body, you will have life. And all those who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God” (Romans 8:11-13 BBE). Man is naturally selfish in his dealings. He wants the best for himself and does not mind what happens to others. He wants to be recognised and appreciated before all others; he wants to occupy the most dignified position even when he is not the most quali...
