TOPIC: CHILDREN BELONG TO GOD

MEMORISE

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: And the fruit of the womb is his reward. - (Psalm 127:3)

READ: Judges 13:6-14 (KJV)

6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:

7 But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.

8 Then Manoah intreated the Lord, and said, O my Lord, let the man of God which thou didst send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born.

9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband was not with her.

10 And the woman made haste, and ran, and shewed her husband, and said unto him, Behold, the man hath appeared unto me, that came unto me the other day.

11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said unto him, Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman? And he said, I am.

12 And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him?

13 And the angel of the Lord said unto Manoah, Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.

14 She may not eat of any thing that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: all that I commanded her let her observe.

MESSAGE

Many years ago, when my children were still little, one of them fell terribly ill. We had already made Jesus our Great Physician, so whenever anyone fell sick in our family, we would simply pray, and God would heal the fellow. In this instance, however, I prayed to God, worshipped Him, and did everything I knew to do for the boy's health to be restored, but he did not get better. In my frustration, I asked, "Lord, why have You refused to heal my son?" and God responded, "He is your son; why don't you heal him yourself?" I immediately realised my mistake and said, "I'm sorry, Lord, he is Your son; please heal Your son." Within an hour, the boy was back on his feet, playing around.

Parents do not own their children; they are only caretakers. Children are gifts from God, so the owner of children is God Himself (Psalm 127:3); therefore, they are to be taken care of according to His will. Parents who fail to realise that their children belong to God will tend to raise them contrary to His plan. When an angel appeared to Manoah and his wife to tell them that they would give birth to a son, Manoah asked a crucial question that every parent should ask about the children God gives them:

...How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him? - (Judges 13:12)

Manoah understood that the child they were about to give birth to was from God and belonged to Him. He knew that he was limited as a person in knowing the best way to teach and nurture the child. After asking the crucial question above, the angel gave him and his wife specific instructions on what to avoid during her pregnancy, and how to raise the child after birth.

Parents should not lean on their understanding when raising children. They should not try to raise the children God has committed into their care the way others are doing it, because He has customised instructions for raising every child. If you are a parent, ask God to show you how He wants you to raise His child(ren) in your custody. Furthermore, don't be tempted to own the child(ren) God has put in your care. Always involve Him in your decisions concerning His child(ren), and He will help you to raise them to fulfil His purpose for their lives, in Jesus' name. 

KEY POINT

Parents must let God guide them in how to raise the children He has entrusted to their care.

TOPIC: THE LIVING DEAD

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: 1 Corinthians 11:24-26 (KJV)

24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

MESSAGE

In John 6:53, Jesus Christ said that only those who partake of His flesh and blood will have life in them. This implies that anyone who does not accept Him as his or her Lord and Saviour is as good as dead. Such people may seem to be alive, but really, there is no life in them, and it would be correct to refer to them as the 'living dead'.

As we see in today's Bible reading, Jesus Christ instituted the Lord's Supper, also known as the Holy Communion, to illustrate the eating of His flesh and drinking of His blood. He shared bread and wine with His disciples that night, describing it as the new covenant in His blood. Partaking of the flesh and blood of Jesus gives us life as Christians, and this is why the Holy Communion is such a powerful meal.

The Lord Jesus also commanded His disciples to continue having the meal in remembrance of Him until His return. So, as often as we believers partake of the Holy Communion, we bring the sacrifice of our Lord and Saviour to remembrance. This has several benefits for us believers, one of which is that it helps us to keep Him before us at all times. This means that as a believer, when Christ is always before you, satan has no chance to attack you.

As we see in today's memory verse, David said that he had set the Lord always before him, and because He was at his right hand, he would not be moved. This was the confidence David had that nothing could shake him since the Lord was always before him. When you partake of the Holy Communion often and worthily, you will be secured from evil and surrounded by favour because the Lord will always be before you.

Apart from those who do not partake of the flesh and blood of Jesus, those who do so while wallowing in sin can also be referred to as the 'living dead'. This is because, as they partake of the Holy Communion, God is right before them, and they incur His wrath because they are living in sin. This can also make such persons sickly and even cost them their lives (1 Corinthians 11:29-30).

Beloved, don't be among the 'living dead'. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour if you haven't, stay away from sin, and always make the best of the privilege to sit at the Lord's table as often as you can. 

KEY POINT

Those who reject the sacrifice of Jesus are the living dead.

HYMN 23 - ALL TO JESUS I SURRENDER

1. All to Jesus I surrender all to Him I freely give; I will ever low and trust Him, in His presence daily live. 

CHORUS 

I surrender all,

I surrender all: All to Thee, my blessed saviour,

1 surrender all.

  

2. All to Jesus I surrender, 

Humbly at His feet l bow; 

Worldly pleasures all forsaken. 

Take me, Jesus, take me now. 

3. All to Jesus I surrender. Lord, I give myself to Thee; Fill me with Thy love and power, Let Thy blessing fall on me.

 

4. All to Jesus I surrender, 

now I feel the sacred flame 

o the joy of full salvation!

Glory, glory to His name!

God bless you as you share.

TOPIC: BE RICH IN GOOD WORKS

MEMORISE

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. - (Ephesians 2:10)

READ: 1 Timothy 6:17-19 (KJV)

17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life

MESSAGE

I once spent the night in the house of a wealthy man, and he invited me to stay for breakfast. When I got to the dining table, I was presented with a variety of dishes to choose from. There were so many options that I became overwhelmed and began to long for the simplicity of the meals in my house.

Beloved, I have spent a little over 80 years in this world, and I have realised that it takes really simple things to truly enjoy life. It is good to be wealthy; however, if people make their material possessions the focus of their lives to the extent that even regular things in their lives become complicated, it can lead to depression.

In today's Bible reading, Paul urged Timothy to tell those who were rich in the church he was overseeing not to be high-minded but to be rich in good works. God doesn't give people wealth so they can flaunt it; He blesses people with wealth so they can be good stewards of His resources. Any fellow who hoards what God has given him or her will not enjoy happiness because it is always more blessed to give than to receive (Acts 20:35). God wants His children to be rich in good works. He wants them to be like the women in Luke 8:2-3 who used their resources to minister to Jesus and advance His earthly ministry. The blessings that God has given to you should be used to bless others.

No matter how big your house is, you cannot sleep in all the rooms in it at the same time. No matter how rich you are, it will be foolish to wash your hands with oil instead of water because you will only be causing trouble for yourself. Life is simple; it should not be complicated in the process of trying to flaunt wealth. Many people have fallen into a state of depression because they allowed their wealth to distract them from the simplicity of life.

Beloved, the only way the wealth God blesses you with can truly make you happy is when you are rich in good works like feeding the poor, supporting missionaries on mission fields, building churches, and expanding God's kingdom in whatever way you can. Therefore, rather than spending your money on the most expensive things you can get, use it to make an impact for God's kingdom in the world. 

REFLECTION

Are you rich in good works? 

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Psalms 56 - 61

HYMN 24 - I WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS

1. I want to be like Jesus, 

So lowly and so meek; For no one mark'd an angry word, That ever heard Him speak.

2. I want to be like Jesus, 

So frequently in prayer; Alone upon the mountain top, 

He met his Father there. 

3. I want to be like Jesus, 

I never, never find That He, though persecuted was To anyone unkind. 

4. I want to be like Jesus, 

Engaged in doing good; So that of me it may be said 

"He hath done what he could." 

5. I want to be like Jesus, 

Who sweetly said to all, "Let little children come to Me;" I would obey the call. 

6. But oh I'm not like Jesus, 

As anyone may see; o gentle Saviour, send Thy grace, And make me like to Thee.

God bless you as you share.

TOPIC: PROSPERITY ≠ GODLINESS

MEMORISE

Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; - (1 Timothy 6:17)

READ: Luke 12:16-21 (KJV)

16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:

17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

MESSAGE

Many years ago, a fellow believer said he wanted to change to another religion because he had observed that many of those who practise this other religion are very rich. I quickly made him realise that being wealthy is not a function of religion, nor is it an indication of godliness. Genesis 4:16-17 tells us that Cain built a city after he departed from the presence of the Lord. Building a city is a mighty feat; however, Cain was no longer dwelling in God's presence when he built that city. Don't be deceived into thinking that every green and flourishing branch is connected to the root, as some branches will remain green and seemingly healthy for a while even after they have been cut from the tree. Eventually, however, they will turn yellow and wither away.

It is true that God blesses His children with the power to make wealth (Deuteronomy 8:18); however, wealth in itself should never be used as a measure of godliness. God measures our godliness by our fruit (Matthew 7:16). When His children bear the right fruit, He blesses them, and one of the signs of His blessing is wealth, as seen in the life of Abraham, who was rich in cattle, silver, and gold (Genesis 13:2). Isaac was also a godly and prosperous person. The Bible says in Genesis 26:12-14 that he waxed richer and richer until he became exceedingly great and prosperous.

God wants you to be wealthy because He loves blessing His children with good gifts (Matthew 7:11). However, He doesn't want you to measure your life by the abundance or scarcity of your material possessions (Luke 12:15). Money is a tool, and when God entrusts you with it, He wants you to be faithful with it. He wants you to be rich towards Him and use the treasures He has given you to bring glory to Him. In today's Bible reading, the rich fool didn't understand that he was meant to be a good steward of his wealth. His life was cut short because he was not rich towards God and didn't acknowledge Him as his source; rather, he decided to lay up treasures for himself.

Beloved, God places more value on your fellowship with Him and the state of your heart (1 Peter 3:4) than your material possessions or the amount of money in your bank account. Let your focus be on cultivating true prosperity, which is the prosperity of your soul (3 John 2), and not material things. 

KEY POINT

Material wealth is not a measure of godliness. 

AUTHOR: Pastor E. A. Adeboye 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Psalms 50 - 55

HYMN 21 - MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS

1. My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and 

righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus name. 

CHORUS 

On Christ, the solid Rock, I 

stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand. 

 

2. When darkness seems to veil His face, I rest on His unchanging grace; In every high and stormy gale, 

My anchor holds within the veil.

3.  His oath, His covenant, and blood, Support me in the whelming Hood; When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay.

 

4. When He shall come with 

trumpet sound, Oh, may I then in Him be found; Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne.

God bless you as you share.
