DAILY MANNA FRIDAY AUGUST 07, 2020 TOPIC: LIFE'S DIFFERENT TWISTS

DAILY MANNA FRIDAY AUGUST 07, 2020 TOPIC: LIFE'S DIFFERENT TWISTS TEXT:JOB 30:1-14 KEY VERSE: "But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock" (JOB 30:1).      A British publication once offered a prize for the best definition of a friend. Among the thousands of answers received were the following: "One who multiplies joys, divides grief, and whose honesty is inviolable." "One who understands our silence." "A volume of sympathy bound in cloth." "A watch that beats true for all time and never runs down." The winning definition reads: "A friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out."      From the text, Job focused our attention on his plight when all his acquaintances left him. He was a highly respected person in his day, being one of the richest persons in the region. Now that he was afflicted by this stran...

HIGHER EVERYDAY FRIDAY AUGUST 07, 2020 TOPIC: THE MEEK MOSES

HIGHER EVERYDAY  FRIDAY AUGUST 07, 2020 TOPIC: THE MEEK MOSES TEXT:NUMBERS 12:1-9 MEMORY VERSE: "Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth" (NUMBERS 12:3).      Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word 'meek' as "enduring injury with patience and without resentment." Meekness was obviously an indispensable requirement for anyone who could attempt the excellent job that Moses did in leading Israel out of Egyptian bondage into the land of promise.      From the stubborn-hearted Pharaoh, with his numerous provocative machinations, to the stiff-necked Israelites and their unceasing mischiefs, Moses patiently endured injury without resentment.      Only the grace of God can transform a soul and equip him/her with Christ-like character traits that overcome the world. Even the vilest sinners, who willingly repent of their sins and accept Jesus as personal Lord and Saviour, would be t...

SINCERE MILK FRIDAY AUGUST 07, 2020 TOPIC: CLEAN HANDS TEXT: PSALM 24:3-5 Key Verse: "He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully" (Psalm 24:4).      Health officials tell us that it is good and healthy to always wash our hands. To show how important this is, a day in the year has been declared as "Hand Washing Day".This is to emphasize the effect of clean hands to a person's wellbeing.      The Bible passage above mentions the importance of having clean hands in order to be able to see God. Clean hands, according to the word of God, refer to hands that are free from corruption and all forms of evil. These are hands that do not steal, write bad reports or draw sinful pictures, fight, kill or do evil.      Heaven is a beautiful place that God has prepared for all His children. In order to get there, God demands clean hands and pure hearts from saved boys and girls. ...

SINCERE MILK WEDNESDAY AUGUST 05, 2020 TOPIC: THE HOUSE OF PRAYER

SINCERE MILK WEDNESDAY AUGUST 05, 2020 TOPIC: THE HOUSE OF PRAYER TEXT: MATTHEW 21:12-13 Key Verse: "And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves" (Matthew 21:13).      Jesus clearly states the purpose of God's House. Some children go to Church to cause trouble and fight. Some go there to steal and sleep. Others go there to hear the word of God and pray. Which group do you belong to?      The church of God is a 'House of Prayer'. Any place where two or three people gather every time, in the name of Jesus to pray, is a 'House of Prayer'. Jesus is present there with His power and blessings.      Satan does not want you to pray. Do you notice that you can talk, play and chat till late in the night, but when it is time to pray, you suddenly begin to feel tired, drowsy and restless?      Remember that Prayer is the Master Key to open any closed door...

HIGHER EVERYDAY WEDNESDAY AUGUST 05, 2020 TOPIC: THE LOVE OF THE LORD

HIGHER EVERYDAY WEDNESDAY AUGUST 05, 2020 TOPIC: THE LOVE OF THE LORD TEXT: ROMANS 5:1-10 MEMORY VERSE: "As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste" (SONG OF SOLOMON 2:3).      Tim & Beverly Lahaye wrote, "Love is like electricity - you can't see it, but you recognize the results of it." The actions of love prove love. There is a true love and selfish love (lust). Christians should manifest true love, the God-kind of love (agape love) to all. God loves without conditions: He cares for and saves the vilest sinners.      The entire book of Song of Solomon in the Bible is an allegory, a love story featuring two symbolic figures, a man and a woman. These symbolic figures represent Jesus Christ, The Groom, and His bride, the congregation of Blood-washed saints, the Church!      In our study, the bride extols her ...
