TOPIC: THE MIGHTY HAND OF GOD 1

MEMORISE

And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. - (1 Kings 18:46)

READ: Nehemiah 2:1-18 (KJV)

1 And it came to pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him: and I took up the wine, and gave it unto the king. Now I had not been beforetime sad in his presence.

2 Wherefore the king said unto me, Why is thy countenance sad, seeing thou art not sick? this is nothing else but sorrow of heart. Then I was very sore afraid,

3 And said unto the king, Let the king live for ever: why should not my countenance be sad, when the city, the place of my fathers' sepulchres, lieth waste, and the gates thereof are consumed with fire?

4 Then the king said unto me, For what dost thou make request? So I prayed to the God of heaven.

5 And I said unto the king, If it please the king, and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight, that thou wouldest send me unto Judah, unto the city of my fathers' sepulchres, that I may build it.

6 And the king said unto me, (the queen also sitting by him,) For how long shall thy journey be? and when wilt thou return? So it pleased the king to send me; and I set him a time.

7 Moreover I said unto the king, If it please the king, let letters be given me to the governors beyond the river, that they may convey me over till I come into Judah;

8 And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which appertained to the house, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall enter into. And the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me.

9 Then I came to the governors beyond the river, and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent captains of the army and horsemen with me.

10 When Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, heard of it, it grieved them exceedingly that there was come a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel.

11 So I came to Jerusalem, and was there three days.

12 And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me; neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem: neither was there any beast with me, save the beast that I rode upon.

13 And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and to the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire.

14 Then I went on to the gate of the fountain, and to the king's pool: but there was no place for the beast that was under me to pass.

15 Then went I up in the night by the brook, and viewed the wall, and turned back, and entered by the gate of the valley, and so returned.

16 And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told it to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work.

17 Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.

18 Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king's words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work.

MESSAGE

Years ago, I sat for a mathematics examination, and when I was handed the question sheet, I discovered that I could not understand any of the questions. Even though I was really good at mathematics, my mind had become totally blank. By then, I was sweating profusely. I looked around me, and I saw my coursemates writing earnestly. Since I knew that any student who failed an examination would be allowed to retake it the following year, I decided to leave the examination hall after a while. As I was about to stand up, I felt a mighty, though invisible, hand pin me to my seat. After another 15 minutes of wondering what to do, I decided to go through the questions again. Suddenly, I realised that my understanding had returned to me and I could now answer all of them. I started answering the questions, and I was able to finish answering them within the stipulated time. By the grace of God, I passed the examination with flying colours. Several years after the incident, I realised that it was God's mighty hand that kept me on my seat during the examination, restored my understanding, and gave me supernatural speed. Even though I started slowly, His hand made me catch up with and even overtake some of my coursemates who had started writing before me.

In today's memory verse, the mighty hand of the Lord rested on Elijah, and he outran the king's chariot, which must have been pulled by the fastest horses in Israel at the time. God's mighty hand gave him supernatural speed. Likewise, in today's Bible reading, when Nehemiah wanted to return to Jerusalem to rebuild it, the mighty hand of God gave him great favour before the heathen king he worked for and also before the leaders in Jerusalem. He experienced supernatural speed in rebuilding the walls and gates of Jerusalem because of God's mighty hand upon him.

Beloved, if you are a child of God, you can also experience the mighty hand of God upon you by spending quality time in prayer and studying His word daily. You must also humble yourself before Him and commit all your ways to Him so that you can receive His grace that births supernatural speed (James 4:6). I pray for you today that the mighty hand of God will rest upon you and give you supernatural clarity and speed in all areas of your life, in Jesus' name. 

PRAYER POINT

Father, please let Your mighty hand rest upon me and grant me supernatural understanding, speed, and favour, in Jesus' name.

MEMORISE

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me? - (Jeremiah 32:27)

READ: John 6:1-14 (KJV)

1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.

4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.

7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,

9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.

12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.

13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.

14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

MESSAGE

Several years ago, we held a Holy Ghost Service at Rowe Park in Lagos, Nigeria. As I was preaching, the word of the Lord came to me, and I said, "There is someone here;  you used to have only one testicle, which has now been destroyed. However, God says that He is giving you two new ones." Suddenly, a young man in the congregation began to shout. He had been born with one testicle, and his parents decided to take him to a herbalist who eventually destroyed the only testicle he had. He shouted because he knew that the word of prophecy was for him. He was a married man, and when he came to my office some months later to share his testimony, he said, "For you to know that God has given me new testicles as He said, let me show them to you." I told him that there was no need to show me because the result of the miracle he had received was obvious - he had come to share his testimony with his wife, who was visibly pregnant.

There is no difficult problem with God. In today's memory verse, God said that nothing is too hard for Him. There is no case that is too complex for God to resolve. When you go through the Scriptures, you will see various instances where God handled issues that seemed complex or hopeless. In today's Bible reading, for example, He fed more than five thousand people with just five loaves of bread and two small fishes. He also raised a man who had been dead and buried for four days from his grave (John 11:1-44). Likewise, in Cana of Galilee, the Lord Jesus Christ turned water into wine at a wedding when the wine ran out (John 2:1-11). Luke 1:37 tells us that there is no impossibility with the Almighty God.

Beloved, you should never allow the presence of seemingly hopeless situations in your life to bring you to a state where you give up. If you are faced with such situations, instead of sinking into despair, put your trust in the Lord. The Bible says in Romans 10:11 that those who believe in God will never be put to shame. Tell Him about the situation, and rest assured that He will do the impossible. I decree that the Lord will save you from any situation in your life that may appear hopeless or too difficult to handle, in Jesus' name. 

KEY POINT

Never allow yourself to sink into despair; rather, trust God to do the impossible. 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

TOPIC: WHEN HE IS IN THE BOAT 2

MEMORISE

I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. - (Psalm 16:8)

READ: 2 Kings 6:1-7 (KJV)

1 And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.

2 Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.

3 And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.

4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.

5 But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.

6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.

7 Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.

MESSAGE

Yesterday, we saw how Jesus' disciples overcame a storm because He was in the same ship with them. When they called on Him, He arose and stilled the storm. The truth is that everyone on earth will experience storms in life at some point, regardless of how anointed, gifted, influential, or powerful they may be. These storms can come in many forms, including sicknesses, delays, barrenness, and the loss of loved ones. As I mentioned yesterday, if Jesus is in a fellow's boat, he or she can overcome any storm. However, if the fellow does not cry out to Him in the midst of a storm, he or she might not emerge victorious. If believers do not involve God in every step they take and decide to lean on their own understanding, they might eventually drown in the storms of life.

In today's Bible reading, the sons of the prophets came to Elisha to tell him that they wanted to expand their house to make it more comfortable. Elisha gave them a go-ahead, but one of them wanted more than his permission; he asked Elisha to go with them to get the materials they needed to expand the house. As the men were chopping wood for the building, the axe head of the axe that one of them was using fell into the river. Immediately, just like the disciples did in the midst of the storm, the man cried to Elisha for help because he had borrowed the axe. God stepped into the situation, and the axe head was miraculously recovered.

Beloved, the Lord can give you the go-ahead to start something; however, if you do not involve Him fully in that thing, you might not become successful with it as He intended. You shouldn't wait for things to get bad before you cry out to Jesus; instead, involve Him in every single decision you make. In today's memory verse, David said that he always put God at the forefront of his decisions and actions. Because he always involved the Lord in his endeavours, he was not moved by the numerous challenges he encountered. You should imitate David by setting the Lord before you at all times. Let Him be the centre of your life and direct you every step of the way. Don't just make Jesus a figurehead in your life; involve Him in all you do, and you will overcome all of life's challenges and experience victory at all times. 

KEY POINT

Having Jesus in your boat is not enough; let Him have the final say in all you do. 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

1 Chronicles 3 - 4

HYMN 19 - ROCK OF AGES, CLEFT FOR ME

1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee! Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure; Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

2. Not the labours of my hands, can fulfill thy law's demands could zeal no respite know, could my tears forever flow, all for sin could not atone, thou must save and thou alone.

3. Nothing in my hand I bring, simply to thy cross I cling naked, come to thee for dress, helpless, look to thee fir grace foul to the fountain fly wash me saviour or I die.

4. While I draw this fleeting breath, when my eyelids close in death, when I soar to worlds unknown, see thee on thy judgment throne, rock of ages cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.

God bless you as you share.

35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

MESSAGE

Years ago, I travelled to Abonnema in Rivers State, Nigeria, to hold a crusade. At that time, the only way one could get to Abonnema from Port Harcourt, the state capital, was by sea. Shortly before the crusade, we heard that a boat capsized on that sea and many people lost their lives. That news, however, did not deter me, as I had made up my mind to go for the crusade. I called a meeting with the workers at the RCCG National Headquarters in Ebute Metta and asked for volunteers to accompany me. One of the workers raised his hand and asked me, "Sir, can I be in your boat?" I told him that he could. Then he responded, "That will be good." I asked him why he said so, and he replied that he knew that whatever boat I travelled in would not sink. He had so much confidence in a mere mortal like me because he knew that God is with me.

In today's Bible reading, the disciples were travelling in a ship with Jesus. After a while, a terrible storm arose, but to their surprise, He remained fast asleep. In fear, they woke Him up, and He stilled the storm. After that, they arrived at their destination safely. This is a testament to the fact that it is a great blessing to have Jesus in the boat of your life!

Beloved, if you are a child of God, Jesus is in your boat as you journey through the waters of life. I know this because He said in Matthew 28:20 that He will be with you at all times. This is why, in the midst of life's challenges, you must trust the One who is in the boat of your life because He alone has the power to make you victorious. If God is in the boat of your life, no weapon that is fashioned against you will prosper. If you involve Him in every step you take, you can rest assured that all your endeavours will turn out fine. If you have not yet given your life to Christ, surrender completely to Him today and acknowledge Him as the Controller of your life. When you do this, He will not only begin to direct your ways, but He will also walk with you every step of the way as you journey through life. 

KEY POINT

When Jesus is in your boat, you will overcome every storm.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

1 Chronicles 1 - 2 

HYMN 29 - WHEN PEACE LIKE A RIVER ATTENDETH MY WAY 

1. When peace, like a river attendeth my way, 

When sorrows, like sea billows roll; 

Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to know, 

It is well, it is well with my soul 

CHORUS

It is well, ... With my soul, ... 

It is well, it is well with my soul. 

2. Though Satan should buffet, 

Though trials should come, 

Let this blest assurance control, 

That Christ hath regarded my Helpless estate, 

And hath shed His own blood for my soul. 

3. My sin o, the bliss of this 

glorious thought, 

My sin not in part, but the whole,

Is nailed to His cross; and I bear it no more: 

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, o my soul. 

4. For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live! 

If Jordan above me shall roll, No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life,

Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul. 

5. But the Lord, 'tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait, 

The sky, not the grave, is our goal: 

Oh, triumph of the angel! oh, voice of the Lord! 

Blessed hope! Blessed rest of my soul.

God bless you as you share.
