DATE: THURSDAY JULY 20TH, 2023.

THEME: YOU CAN BE THE BEST

MEMORISE: 

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 

John 8:31

READ: Deuteronomy 28:1 

1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

MESSAGE

Anyone can become the best. There are however, conditions that must be fulfilled if you want to become the best. The Bible says: "I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth" (Ecclesiastes 10:7). It all depends on the readiness to pay the price. In our Bible text, we read the promises of God that assure us of being the best. However, in the same text, we read the conditions to fulfil - hearkening to the voice of the Lord, observing and doing all His commandments 

How many of us are ready to hearken to the voice of the Lord today? I have taught ministers what it means to hearken, which is different from listening. To hearken is not just to listen but to pay very close attention to the details of the voice of the commandment of the Lord. Only then can you fulfil the details of God's instructions. The Bible says that faith can only come by hearing, and hearing by the word of God and not the word of men or the voice of our carnal body (Romans 10:17). For example, if you want to be the best financially, you must pay close attention to Malachi 3:10, which says:

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meal in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if l will not open you the Windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be enough to receive it.

A closer look at the passage will reveal why some people have been paying tithes but have not received the promise of super-abundance. "Bring all the tithes" the Bible says - not some. "Bring it " not "Send it" - meaning that God cherishes our presenc before Him more than our gift. He wants our fellowship. He is not a beggar, we must come with fear and trembling, praying that He would even accept our tithes and offerings. 

Another example is when we want God to perform miracles through us. The Bible says that some results cannot be achieved without prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21), even though some translations have removed fasting for reasons best known to them. Beloved, you can be the best if you will pay the price of surrendering your life to Christ and living according to His will.

PRAYER POINT 

Father, please give me the best and make me the best, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 20-24

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 21: STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF GOD

Standing on the promises of Christ my King,

Through eternal ages let His praises ring,

Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,

  Standing on the promises of God.

Standing, standing,

1 Standing on the promises of God my Savior;

Standing, standing,

  I’m standing on the promises of God.

2 Standing on the promises that cannot fail,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,

By the living Word of God I shall prevail,

  Standing on the promises of God.

3 Standing on the promises I now can see

Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;

Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,

  Standing on the promises of God.

4 Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,

Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,

  Standing on the promises of God.

5 Standing on the promises I shall not fall,

List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call.

Resting in my Savior as my All in all,

Standing on the promises of God.

DATE: WEDNESDAY JULY 19TH 2023

THEME: THE STORM STILLER III

MEMORISE: And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. 

Luke 7:13 

READ: Mark 4:35 -41 

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

The greatest storm of life is untimely death. The good news is that the Storm Stiller has power over death. The Bible says:

Jesus said unto her, l am the resurrection, and the life he that believeth in me, though were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever LIVETH and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

John 11:25-26

The story behind our memory verse is a pointer to the fact that Jesus indeed is the only One who can still all storms of life, including  the most devastating one - death. There was a widow who was left with only one son. The storm  of death had taken away her husband and returned to take her only son as well. As the child was being carried away for burial, the woman and the people bearing the corpse encountered the Storm Stiller. The Bible records that:

And he came and touched the bier; and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, l say unto thee, Arise.

Luke 7:14

Beloved, l bring good news to you today: the storm of untimely death will not rage in your family. As Jesus stilled the storm on the sea, so shall every devastating storm be stilled today, in Jesus' name.

Jesus is the only answer to the storm of death. The Bible says:

Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, and that is, the devil: And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

Hebrews 2:14-15

Beloved you do not need to be afraid of death because Jesus Christ has conquered death for us, because He lives, death shall have no power over us again. You do not need to join secret societies or engage in voodoo for fear of death. Romans 6:9 assures us that death has no control over Christ; if you're His child, death can have no control over you either. 

PRAYER POINT

Father, never let me or any member of my family experienced untimely death, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 15-19

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 17: PRAISE MY SOUL THE KING OF HEAVEN

1 Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;

to his feet your tribute bring.

Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,

evermore his praises sing.

Alleluia, alleluia!

Praise the everlasting King!

2 Praise him for his grace and favor

to his people in distress.

Praise him, still the same as ever,

slow to chide, and swift to bless.

Alleluia, alleluia!

Glorious in his faithfulness!

3 Fatherlike he tends and spares us;

well our feeble frame he knows.

In his hand he gently bears us,

rescues us from all our foes.

Alleluia, alleluia!

Widely yet his mercy flows!

TOPIC: THE STORM STILLER II

MEMORISE:

“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” – (2 Corinthians 8:9)

READ: Mark 4:35-41 (KJV)

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:

A financial storm is another critical storm of life that every believer must take care of by the power in the name of Jesus Christ. The Bible says: "The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender" (Proverbs 22:7). The Scripture further says: "The rich man's wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty" (Proverbs 10:15). The first thing to do to still a financial storm is to work hard. The Bible says:

He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.  (Proverbs 10:4-5)

The Bible further says in Proverbs 22:29:

Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.

Thus, hard work is good. However, hard work alone may not guarantee safety from a financial storm because the Bible says: "Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain" (Psalm 127:1). Right from the fall at Eden, man has been labouring with little reward (Genesis 3:17-19). Therefore, the curse of poverty must be broken and the only One who can do this is Jesus Christ our Redeemer.

Our memory verse for today shows that Jesus sacrificed everything to restore man to a life of bliss. We must invite Him into our lives so that every financial storm blowing against our lives would be stilled.

We need to cry to God in the name of Jesus Christ, who promised that whatever we ask the Father in His name shall be done for us (John 14:14). He says also in Matthew 7:7-8, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened". God will end poverty in your life today and He will use your testimony to draw many into His Kingdom, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please bless me, and still my financial storms today.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ISAIAH 12-14

AUTHOR PASTOR E A ADEBOYE 

HYMNAL: 26 - THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSING

1. There shall be showers of blessing:

This is the promise of love;

There shall be seasons refreshing,

Sent from the Saviour above.

REFRAIN: 

Showers of blessing,

Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy-drops round us are falling,

But for the showers we plead. 

2. There shall be showers of blessing:

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and the valleys,

Sound of abundance of rain.

3. There shall be showers of blessing:

Send them upon us, Oh Lord!

Grant to us now a refreshing;

Come and now honour Thy Word.

4. There shall be showers of blessing:

Oh, that today they might fall,

Now, as to God, we're confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!

THEME: THE STORM STILLER

MEMORISE: 

Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. 

John 5:8

READ: Mark 4:35 -41 

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

What is a storm? Literally, a storm is a disturbance of the atmosphere marked by wind and some or combination of the following: rain, snow, hail, sleet, or thunder and lightning. Figuratively however, a storm is a set of unpleasant circumstances that could result in some loss or the other. Storms of life are in categories. They could be physical, spiritual, emotional, financial, material, political etc.

In our text, we read about the rising of a great storm that could have capsized the boat Jesus and His disciples were sailing in. The Storm Stiller however, commanded that the storm should be still and it was so. Today, we shall look at physical storm in terms of ill-health. I pray that any storm of ill-health you may be battling is stilled now in Jesus' name.

In the story behind our memory verse of today, there was a man who suffered ill-health for thirty-eight years. His physical storm raged so long that he felt he was to die by the pool of Bethesda. However, on that very day that he encountered the Storm Stiller, his story changed. Jesus Christ - the Storm Stiller asked him: Wilt thou be made whole?" (John 5:6).

The Almighty God is asking you today, "Do you want to be healed?" If your answer is "Yes," then you must fulfil the condition for healing. Divine healing is the 'food' meant for children according to Matthew 15:26. Therefore, you must be sure you are genuinely born again because your sins must be forgiven before you can enjoy this divine blessing that will still your storm of ill-health. When Jesus Christ wanted to still the storm of the young man that was suffering terribly from palsy, the Bible says:

And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy: Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee. 

Matthew 9:2

This implies that you should repent of your sins and seek God's forgiveness. If you want Him to still the storm of ill health in your life. As you heed His call today, every storm of ill health in your life will cease today, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT

Father, I receive my healing today, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 9-11

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE

HYMN 25: THE GREAT PHYSICIAN NOW IS HERE

1 The Great Physician now is near,

  The sympathizing Jesus;

Sweetest note in seraph song;

Sweetest name on mortal tongue;

Sweetest carol ever sung:

    Jesus, blessed Jesus!

2 Your many sins are all forgiv’n,

  Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;

The veil ’twixt you and God is riven,

  Redemption wrought by Jesus.

3 All glory to the dying Lamb!

  I now believe in Jesus;

I love the blessed Savior’s name,

  I love the name of Jesus.

4 His name dispels my guilt and fear,

  No other name but Jesus;

Oh, how my soul delights to hear
