TOPIC: FAITHFULNESS Precedes FULFILMENT: Consistency (2) One Year Bible Reading:  Esther 1 - 4, Acts 15: 1 -21. MEMORY VERSE: Nehemiah 9:7-8 "7. You are the lord God, who chose Abram and brought him from Ur of the Chaldeans and renamed him Abraham. 8. When he had proved himself faithful, you made a covenant with him to give him and his descendants the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites, and Girgashites. And you have done what you promised, for you are always true to your word." BIBLE READING: Genesis 17:1. "1. And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect." Thinking Point: Walking with God consistently enhances the fulfilment of His promises. God can do whatever He promises to do faster than we think if we can be consistent in our walk with Him. Obedience to God's instructions shouldn't be when it pleases us but...

TOPIC: FAITHFULNESS Precedes FULFILMENT: Obedience (1) One Year Bible Reading:  Nehemiah 11 - 13, Acts 14. MEMORY VERSE: Nehemiah 9:7-8 "7. You are the lord God, who chose Abram and brought him from Ur of the Chaldeans and renamed him Abraham. 8. When he had proved himself faithful, you made a covenant with him to give him and his descendants the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites, and Girgashites. And you have done what you promised, for you are always true to your word." BIBLE READING: Genesis 12:1, 4. "1. Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 4. So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran." Thinking Point: The first key to promised fulfilment is total obedience to God's instructions. It's my pleasur...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Give Without Request (7) One Year Bible Reading:  Nehemiah 9 - 10, Acts 13: 13 - 52. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: 2 Corinthians 9:7-8. "7. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:" Thinking Point: Don't wait for the needy to ask, when you see the need, meet it. It's my prayer this morning that all our efforts be rewarded greatly in Jesus's name, Amen. Oftentimes we see what God is showing us but respond in the other way. We heard the voice of meeting some needs but turned it into a mess. We expected people to make requests while it was glaring to us to meet those n...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Paying Back (6) One Year Bible Reading:  Nehemiah 7 - 8, Acts 13: 1 - 12. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: Luke 6:38. "38. Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. Thinking Point: Everyone we’ve helped will not pay us, only God rewards in full through the channel He chooses. A wonderful weekend to you all, we bless the name of the Lord for the strength for the week. One of the confusing things that is affecting humans on earth today is the mentality that ‘I once helped him/her and he/she's supposed to reward me’. ‘I’m not being rewarded for my generosity.’ ‘They’ve left me when I needed their help’, all this mentality isn't what God...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Be Contented And Show Gratitude (5) One Year Bible Reading:  Nehemiah 4 - 6, Acts 12. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: Philippians 4:11 "11. Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content." Thinking Point: Appreciation is not dependent on the size of help received, it's meant for gratitude. The reason for the lack of genuine appreciation is discontentment and being over-expectant. Lack of appreciation to God and men withholds the best yet to be seen. That people gave you a little help or gave below your expectations doesn't mean you are not loved but it really means that is what God has for you from such a person. John 3:27 put it this way,  "27. John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven."...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Boasting For Helping (4) One Year Bible Reading:  Nehemiah 1 - 3, Acts 11: 19 - 30. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: Matthew 6:1-4. "1. Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. 2. Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 3. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: 4. That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly." Thinking Point: Letting people know you helped others brings the praise of men but denies you your godly reward. Many times we often tell people w...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Release What You Can Let Go (3) One Year Bible Reading:  Ezra 9 - 10, Acts 11: 1 - 18 MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: Acts 5:1-3. "1. But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 2. And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 3. But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? Thinking Point: Gift has no measure. Give according to your ability not according to the requested. Give what you can let go. Beloved, don't fall into being a prey of waste or complaining after giving, it has no reward. Many have put themself in debts they are unable to pay in the name of helping others. Hello, helping or blessing peopl...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Granting Request (2) One Year Bible Reading:  Ezra 7 - 8, Acts 10: 24 - 48. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: 1 Kings 17:10-12. "10. So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. 11. And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand. 12. And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die." Thinking Point: Nothing is bad when someone asks for help but it is bad when you hav...

TOPIC: ASKING, SEEKING AND KNOCKING: Asking (1) One Year Bible Reading:  Ezra 4 -6, Acts 10: 1 - 23. MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 7:7. "7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" BIBLE READING: 1 Kings 17:10-11. "10. So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. 11. And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand." Thinking Point: Asking for help or assistance isn't a crime but not asking is a destiny killer. I welcome you all to this new series as we will be discussing "Asking, Seeking and Knocking". It promises to be an enlightening moment in Jesus' name, Amen. Let me start by saying, asking for help, assistance isn't a crime. No...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Be Unpredictable (21) One Year Bible Reading:  Ezra 1 -3, Acts 9: 32 - 43 MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:56-57. "56. Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast? 57. Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him." Thinking Point: Be unpredictable. Not everyone should know your next step except your disciples. We bless the name of the Lord for the revelation He has endured us with for the past three weeks. We've been studying, "Knowing Jesus". It is good to know that, knowing Jesus changes all things around our lives and works together for our good, Romans 8:28. Knowing Jesus relieves us of heavy burdens and gives us peace. Wh...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Knowing When to Hide (20) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 35 - 36, Acts 9: 1 - 31. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:53-54. "53. Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death. 54. Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples." Thinking Point: Knowing when to be in the public and when to hide is called wisdom. We bless the name of the Lord for another weekend. We thank God it's Friday again, we shall enjoy the labour of our hands this weekend in Jesus name, Amen According to the book of Ecclesiastical 3:1, which says, "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" There is time for everything and everyone under heaven. I...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Prophecy Reminder (19) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 33 - 34, Acts 8: 9 - 40. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:49-52. "49. And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, 50. Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. 51. And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; 52. And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. Thinking Point: God's prophecy concerning you will be made manifest in Jesus name, Amen. Sometimes God's prophecy concerning us may seem wicked, evil or deadly to us without knowing what God has in mind for us. What we are ...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Enmity Of Glory (18) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 31 - 32, Acts 7: 54 - 8: 1 -8. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:48. "48. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. Thinking Point: Your future is the reason for antagonism and challenges. Resist and fight back. A beautiful day to you and your family, the glory of God will manifest in our life soon in Jesus name, amen. The devil has nothing to do with gloriless persons. He has no business with people who are under his control but He goes after those whose glory is a treat to him. Those who can deliver his captives and slaves, those who know who they are and are informed of their placement in Christ. You are not under a curse nor a mistake in this world, you are a unique being with glory to dismantle the...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Be Ready For Results (16) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 29 - 30, Acts 7: 1 - 53. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:45-48. "45. Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him. 46. But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done. 47. Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. 48. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation." Thinking Point: God's act attracts two results, Good and Bad results, are you ready for it? A beautiful morning to you all, the Love of God shall speak for everyone this day in Jesus name, Amen. We all eager to receive one thing or the other from God, those pray...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Get To Work (16) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 26 - 28, Acts 6. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:43-44. "43. And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. 44. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go." Thinking Point: Every promotion attracts new responsibilities and higher tasks, so be prepared.  Welcome to another wonderful week filled with the help of God for you and I, in Jesus name, Amen. When one calls on God to intervene in his/her situation and things begin to turn around, changes begin to step in, it's for you to know that, every new testimony is a new task. Answers of prayer or change of status in telling God that I am ready for the tasks ahead. I will do bet...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Present Your Desire (15) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 23 - 25, Acts 5 : 12 - 42. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:43. "43. And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth." Thinking Point: Jesus calls out Lazarus from the grave as He wants us to call out our desires. Happy Father's Day to all Fathers this day. May you enjoy everything that makes you a responsible father in Jesus name, Amen. Today, our focus is to make decrees over our lives. When the people removed the stone placed on Lazarus as we all have decided to remove every limitation against our life, then Jesus had access to intercede on Lazarus's behalf. He thanked God and after that He made decrees for Lazarus to become a living being and he resurrected. When you have done the needful by tracing your steps back to God, removing...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Accessing God Free (14) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 20 - 22, Acts 4: 32 - 5 : 1 - 11. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:41-43. "41. Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. 42. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. 43. And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth." Thinking Point: When the gate is opened we have access to penetrate where was once secluded from us. May the Lord crown every of our efforts this week with a good result in Jesus name, Amen. Yesterday, we discussed about removing every limitation set by ourselves which restricted God to take His place. We realised that th...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Roll The Stone Away (13) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 16 - 19, Acts 4. 1 - 31. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:38-41. "38. Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. 39. Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days. 40. Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? 41. Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. Thinking Point: There's a limit to what God can do as there are limits to what we can do also. Brethren have you ever seen someone who wants to lift a heavy load on his ha...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: He seeks For Our Attention (12) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 12 - 15, Acts 3. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:32-34. "32. Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. 33. When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled. 34. And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see 35. Jesus wept." Thinking Point: How often we give Him our attention determines when He attends to us. Let me start with one of my Nigerian favourite Gospel Song Ministers, Panam Percy Paul.  He Knows Chorus "He is watching over you, He is aware, of the trials you're passing through, He knows (he knows) He see (he see) He feels what you ...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Seasonal Faith (11) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 8 - 11, Acts 2 : 22 - 47. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:21-24. "21. Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. 22. But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. 23. Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. 24. Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day." Thinking Point: When your faith is seasonal it can delay the manifestation of God upon your life. We believe God is a healer, deliverer, supplier, protector, our shield and our source because He's done it for so many people in time past but we seldom believe such could be done in our lives. We've listened to many testimonies and even claimed them but our faith doesn't hold it,...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: Don't Be Judgemental (10) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 5 -7, Acts 2 : 1 - 21. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:19-20. "19. And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. 20. Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house. 21. Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died." Thinking Point: Always listen before passing judgement on others for their actions. Many times we go through pains for reactions and attitudes of trusted friends and loved ones towards us. We find it difficult to reason why such persons reacted the way they did. In response, we choose to neglect or sideline them without asking the reasons behind their actions. We concluded they are bad people who cared less of our ...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: God's Intervention (9) One Year Bible Reading:  2 Chronicles 1 - 4, Acts 1. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:17. "17. Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already. Thinking Point: God can never be late, He may come later but that's when you need Him the most. Today, being the first working day of this week, our work will work, we will enjoy favour in our workplace, and be blessed from our works in Jesus name, Amen. Our God is called the God of the eleventh hour. He comes around when all hope is gone and concluded. When our last strength has been applied, but if we can still trust in His ability, He will show up with a new beginning, this is our portion this week in Jesus' Mighty name, Amen. In that condition, we've been asking when He will show up, when He will deliver us from all? Remembe...

TOPIC: KNOWING JESUS: He Knows Your Present Situation (8) One Year Bible Reading:  I Chronicles 26 - 29, John 21. MEMORY VERSE: Daniel 11:32  "32. .... but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." BIBLE READING: John 11:14-15. "14. Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. 15. And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him." Thinking Point: He knows how bad the situation is. He is aware of your feelings. Happy Sunday to you all, it's another wonderful week with God's goodies for us all in Jesus name, Amen. I am glad to let you know that all pains, struggles, disappointment and chaos is all known to God our maker. The present situations we are going through are well known to Him. Recounting it always isn't as if He's blind or not seeing but like I said earlier, He is waiting till God's name will be glorified. Do you know what? God kn...
