MEMORISE

“For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.” - (Isaiah 66:2)


READ: 1 Kings 21:15-29 (KJV)


15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.


16 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.


17 And the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,


18 Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, which is in Samaria: behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he is gone down to possess it.


19 And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the Lord, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine.


20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: because thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the Lord.


21 Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel,


22 And will make thine house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.


23 And of Jezebel also spake the Lord, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.


24 Him that dieth of Ahab in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.


25 But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.


26 And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all things as did the Amorites, whom the Lord cast out before the children of Israel.


27 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard those words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.


28 And the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,


29 Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? because he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: but in his son's days will I bring the evil upon his house.


MESSAGE

After I became born again, I started hearing God speak to me, and I stopped doing anything without His guidance or approval. In those days, I would ask Him which routes to drive through so I would not get caught in traffic jams, and He would guide me. However, something happened that made Him stop speaking to me for a while. I was an interpreter in the church, and the General Superintendent took a special interest in me and made me his personal interpreter. When the other pastors in the church realised that he had chosen me to be his interpreter, they stopped asking me to interpret for them out of respect for him.


One day, we had a programme, and a pastor told me that I would be interpreting for him during his sermon. I became angry, but I didn't object because the Bible teaches that we should always honour and obey those whom God has placed over us (Romans 13:1-2). I interpreted during his sermon, but in my heart, I murmured, "How can you call me, the interpreter to the General Superintendent, to interpret for you?" At the end of the programme, as I walked towards my car, God told me, "Son, so you are now too big to interpret for my servant." That was all He said, and I didn't hear His voice again. The period that followed was like hell because He stopped speaking to me. I was constantly stuck in heavy traffic as His voice wasn't guiding me anymore. I pleaded with Him and promised never to allow pride to creep into my heart again. Thankfully, He started speaking to me again.


Pride will make a Christian vulnerable to all arrows from the devil. However, when a Christian stays humble, God will be his or her defence. God will always fight for humble people because they have acknowledged through their humility that they cannot fight for themselves. In today's Bible reading, Ahab did a terrible thing before God, and God sent Elijah to pass judgment on him for his wickedness. When he heard God's word, Ahab humbled himself before God, who had sworn to destroy him. When God saw that he had humbled himself, He sent Elijah to tell him that He would not bring evil in his days (1 Kings 21:27-29). God postponed Ahab's judgement because of his humility.


Beloved, do not leave yourself vulnerable to the devil's attacks. Humble yourself before God, and He will cause you to always walk in victory. 


KEY POINT

God rejects the proud, but He gives grace to the humble. 


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

Acts 4 - 5


HYMN 31 - YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION


1. Yield not to temptation, 

For yielding is sin; Each victory will help you Some other to win; Fight manfully onward, Dark passions subdue; Look ever to Jesus, He'll carry you through. 


CHORUS

Ask the Saviour to help you 

Comfort, strengthen, and keep 

you; He is willing to aid you, 

He will carry you through.

 

2. Shun evil companions, 

Bad language disdain; God's name hold in reverence, Nor take it in vain; Be thoughtful and earnest, Kindhearted and true; Look ever to Jesus, He'll carry you through.

 

3. to him that overcometh God giveth a crown; through faith we will conquer, though often cast down; he who is our saviour our strength will renew; look ever to Jesus, he'll carry you through.

DATE: TUESDAY 11TH NOVEMBER, 2025


TOPIC: STAY HUMBLE I


MEMORISE:

"When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom." 

Proverbs 11:2


BIBLE READING: 1 PETER 5:5-6

5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.


6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:


MESSAGE:

If there is a storm in the jungle, big, tall trees might be uprooted. However, by the time the storm is over, the lowly grass will remain in its position. When strong winds blow, a blade of grass will bow in the direction of the wind, but after the wind blows, it will return to its former posture and remain like that. In life, storms happen every now and then. When a storm comes, many people who have pride in their hearts and consider themselves to be better than everyone else are usually blown off, while the unknown – the meek and lowly - remain and praise God after the storm has passed. Everyone who became proud in the Bible was eventually blown off by one thing or the other. Nebuchadnezzar was blown off his throne for seven years, and he ate grass like an ox because he refused to remain humble (Daniel 4:28-37). Pharaoh lost his army to the Red Sea because he refused to acknowledge God and insisted on stubbornly pursuing God’s people (Exodus 14:28). Pride makes people put themselves in a place where they can be easily destroyed. Beloved, no matter the height you attain in life, it is wise for you to remain humble and avoid becoming a show-off.


Today’s memory verse tells us that with pride comes shame, but with the lowly is wisdom. Nobody can access God’s wisdom with a proud heart. When a man becomes proud, he invites shame to visit him. Pride always goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall (Proverbs 16:18). A humble man, however, will enjoy preservation and promotion because humility attracts God’s favour and blessings. Proverbs 29:23 tells us that while a man’s pride brings him low, a humble man will be upheld by honour.


Pride is very dangerous because it makes people delusional. When they ought to work on themselves to become better, pride will lie to them that they are the best. Instead of seeking or receiving help from others, pride will deceive them that they are self-sufficient and do not need other people. When people allow pride into their hearts, they close the heavens over themselves because God resists the proud and only gives grace to the humble (James 4:6).


Beloved, no man can go far without the grace of God. If you want God’s grace in everything you do, clothe yourself with humility and never allow pride into your heart.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, please help me to always clothe myself with humility so that I can always enjoy your grace, in Jesus' Name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: ACTS 1-3


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE


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 any one 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 any one may see;

O gentle Saviour, send Thy grace.

ONLY JESUS CAN SAVE

 FIVE IMPORTANT TRUTHS:

1. Life is short

2. Sin has consequences

3. Death is certain

4. Hell has no exits

5. ONLY JESUS SAVES 

Romans 6:23 – "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

PRAYER:

Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. I believe that you died for my sins. Please forgive me and come into my heart. I believe that you rose from the dead and are alive today. I accept you as my Lord and Savior. I will follow you for the rest of my life. Amen!🙏

TOPIC: THE BACKSTAGE AND THE LIMELIGHT 2


MEMORISE

“By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.” - (Hebrews 11:23)


READ: Matthew 2:13-21 (KJV)


13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.


14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:


15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.


16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.


17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying,


18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.


19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,


20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.


21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.


MESSAGE


Yesterday, I said that Andrew was promoted to being in the background instead of the spotlight. Today, I will continue my discussion on Matthew 10:2 by sharing a few questions God asked me when I was studying the verse. He asked, "What part of a building carries the biggest burden?" I answered, "The foundation". He asked again, "What part of the building is unseen?" I responded, "The foundation". He continued, "If the building is burnt down, what part of it escapes the fire?" I answered, "The foundation". Finally, He asked, "When there is a storm, what part is blown off first?" I answered, "The roof". The roof is the part of a building that people usually notice first, and it is the one that is usually blown off first in a storm while the foundation remains intact.


People who want to be seen every time are more likely to be blown off by storms. Believers who have an unhealthy desire to be seen and known as the people who make things happen need to pray to God for new hearts so they won't be the first to be blown off when storms come.


God often hides people to preserve them. Before John the Baptist began his ministry, he was in the wilderness until the day of his showing unto Israel (Luke 1:80). God hid him until the right time. If John had insisted that he wanted to fulfil all the prophetic words the angel gave his father before the day of his showing, he might have been blown off. Even when Jesus came to the earth as a man, God didn't announce Him to the whole world immediately. As we read in today's Bible reading, God instructed Joseph to hide Jesus in Egypt until it was safe to return to Israel. Moses' mother also hid him for three months until she could no longer hide him from Pharaoh. She put him in a basket and put the basket on the River Nile, and God arranged for the very system that should have killed him to preserve him (Exodus 2:1-10). When people insist on being in the spotlight when God hasn't permitted them, they expose themselves to the 'Herods' and 'Pharaohs' who are after their destinies.


Beloved, don't get frustrated if it seems you are not operating in the realm of influence that God has promised you. He is faithful to His words and is only preserving you until the right time. Be patient, and put your total trust in Him. 


KEY POINT

Let God be the One to announce you at the right time. 


AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE 


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR

John 20 - 21


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.
