MEMORISE

And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

Acts 16:31


READ : Acts 27:21-25

Acts 27:21 But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.


Acts 27:22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship.


Acts 27:23 For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,


Acts 27:24 Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.


Acts 27:25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.


MESSAGE

In our Bible reading for today, when Paul was in a storm and had a divine visitation from an Angel , he said to those around him…


And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship.

Acts 27:22


I tell people that I have three kinds of children: tertiary children, secondary children and primary children.

Generally, especially in Nigeria, most people call me Daddy. I'll categorise such people as my tertiary children.

A very notable leader of another religion once wrote me a letter and started the letter by saying, "Dear Daddy". If a Pastor is Daddy to leaders of another religion, clearly, such people are tertiary children. I also have secondary children. These are General Overseers of other denominations who love me. Finally, I have primary children: these are members of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, and I always boast that the same divine insurance policy that covers me covers them. The same angelic protection I get is what they get too, just like Paul when he was in the storm we read about in our Bible reading today.


A few years ago, while in Zambia and on our way to a programme, a police escort rode ahead of us to help clear the traffic, but got hit by a car that crushed the motorcycle beyond repair and flung the rider across the road. He was picked up dead from the road. I felt terrible. I said, "My Daddy, this young man is with me; he is on my team, clearing traffic for me. Please save him". If it were our own Church programme, I would have turned back, but I didn't want to disappoint the people who invited me all the way from Nigeria, so I went on to the programme. All the while, my mind was on the policeman. After the programme, / enquired after the policeman and was told that he had come back to life - no broken bone or scratch on his body at all. That day, I saw clearly, God's group insurance policy in action.


If the devil tries to touch any of your loved ones, call on God to cover them with the same insurance policy with which He covers you and He will answer you.


PRAYER POINT 

Father, the same way You protect me, please extend that protection to all my friends and family members, in Jesus' name..


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Corinthians 10-13


AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE


HYMN 5: BLESSED ASSURANCE


1 Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine;

Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!

Heir of salvation, purchase of God,

Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

This is my story, this is my song,

Praising my Savior all the day long.

This is my story, this is my song,

  Praising my Savior all the day long.


2 Perfect submission, perfect delight,

Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;

Angels descending, bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.


3 Perfect submission, all is at rest,

I in my Savior am happy and blest;

Watching and waiting, looking above,

Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

TOPIC: BUILD INTIMACY WITH GOD


MEMORISE:

"Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven." 

Luke 10:20


READ: LUKE 10:38-42 (KJV)


38  Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.


39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.


40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.


41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:


42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.


MESSAGE:


Intimacy with God should be your greatest heart’s desire. The desire for power to work miracles must be secondary compared to the desire to be intimate with Him. Believe me honestly, if you focus on intimacy with God, signs and wonders will follow effortlessly.


In Luke 10:19-20, after Jesus had given His disciples authority over all the powers of the enemy, He told them not to rejoice in that fact, but rather that their names were written in Heaven. God prefers for you to be close to Him than that you have power to do His work.


In our Bible reading for today, when Jesus went to visit the two sisters, Martha was occupied with serving Him, while Mary sat at His feet, spending quality time with Him. Martha thought she was doing the right thing and told Jesus to instruct her sister to join her, but He told her that Mary had done the one needful thing, which is to spend time at His feet. He said further, "Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her." Someone can take a position in Church away from you or even deprive you of the opportunity to serve God in a particular area, but no one can take your intimacy with God away from you. That is what you should guard more than anything else. According to Jesus Christ Himself, that is the one needful thing.


When Jesus was on the cross in great pain, and being mocked by people who hated Him, He kept hanging on to life. When He no longer felt the presence of God, at that point, even with all the pain, He cried with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matthew 27:46-50). He bore all the pain and shame, but could not bear to be separated from God.


Beloved, intimacy with God must be your priority above all else. God desires to build intimacy with His children. He is seeking those who will worship Him in Spirit and in truth (John 4:24) and not just those who are seeking what they can get from Him.


KEY POINT:

Intimacy with God must be to you as breath is to your lungs.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 CORINTHIANS 5-9


AUTHOR PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 


HYMNAL:  7 - I AM THINE O LORD


1. I am Thine, O Lord

I have heard Thy voice,

And it told Thy love to me;

But I long to rise in the arms of faith

And be closer drawn to Thee.


REFRAIN: 

Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To the cross where Thou hast died;

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To Thy precious, bleeding side. 


2. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord

By the power of grace divine

Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,

And my will be lost in Thine.


3. Oh, the pure delight of a single hour

That before Thy throne I spend,

When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God

I commune as friend with friend!


4. There are depths of love that I cannot know

Till I cross the narrow sea;

There are heights of joy that I may not reach

Till I rest in peace with Thee.
