Glory glory alleluia, glory glory praise the Lord. Glory glory alleluia, glory glory praise the Lord.// You are a Might God, the Great I AM, alleluia, alleluia. You are a Might God, the Great I AM, alleluia, alleluia.

Heavenly Father we are grateful unto You, thank You Good God, Thank You Everlasting Father, Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise. We bow and we worship before Thy Throne.  O Lord come and help us today even as we learn at Your feet in Jesus Name.

Beloveth, are you happy to be part of this family of God Thank God for His love endureth forever? Let us appreciate God for the gift of another month, the remaining half of this year.

He was faithful in the first half, He will also be Faithful in the second half. He provided and protected us in the first half He is still able to preserve us in the remaining half of the half of the year. Praise the Name of the Lord.

Just as a remainder, we are call to show kindness to those around us as a way of having dominion over all that has been dominating us hitherto. However, if you are not conversant with this virtue, we are advice to follow Jesus, emulate Him, to observe Him, to be like Him, Praise the Lord.

A life that is not yet dead in Christ will find this instruction very difficult to live out, but for a life that is well disciple in Christ will seek out where to give such a help. He see it as an obligation and will not give it a second a thought to be part of it. Such individual feel honour that it is counted upon him/her to honour God with his/her substance no matter how little it might be. Praise God.

Let us consider the instruction of Apostle Paul to the Corinth’s and likewise do same. For if we believe in the blessings of the bible, likewise we should also believe in it works. Praise the Lord.

In 2 Corinthians 8 verse 15, the Scriptures say, “Those who gathered a lot had nothing left over, and those who gathered only a little had enough.2 Cor 8:15 (NLT)

Beloveth, our topic today has a perfect example for us to help our understanding of this topic. God did not only gave us instruction to give, He also showed us how to give not just anything but how to give our best.

Let us consider the teaching below:

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

Of all the stars in the sky the polestar is the most useful to the mariner. This text is a polestar, for it has guided more souls to salvation than any other Scripture. It is among promises what the Great Bear is among constellations.

Several words in it shine with peculiar brilliance. Here we have God’s love, with a “so” to it, which marks its measureless greatness. Then we have God’s gift in all its freeness and greatness. This also is God’s Son, that unique and priceless gift of a love which could never fully show itself till Heaven’s Only-begotten had been sent to live and die for men. These three points are full of light.

Then there is the simple requirement of believing, which graciously points to a way of salvation suitable for guilty men. This is backed by a wide description — “whosoever believeth in him.” Many have found room in “whosoever” who would have felt themselves shut out by a narrower word.

Then comes the great promise, that believers in Jesus shall not perish, but have everlasting life. This is cheering to every man who feels that he is ready to perish, and that he cannot save himself. We believe in the Lord Jesus, and we have eternal life.

Beloved, the gift of our Lord Jesus assured us of eternal life. It implied that the gift of God to us is of inestimable value to every living soul. So we are enjoy to likewise do same with our gift.

Talk about a redeemed of the Lord and the one who is yet to come to the Lord. The next message will help us further so let’s get going:

      “And God divided the light from the darkness.” Genesis 1:4

                                             

A believer has two principles at work within him. In his natural estate he was subject to one principle only, which was darkness; now light has entered, and the two principles disagree. Mark the apostle Paul’s words in the seventh chapter of Romans: “I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin, which is in my members.”

How is this state of things occasioned? “The Lord divided the light from the darkness.” Darkness, by itself, is quiet and undisturbed, but when the Lord sends in light, there is a conflict, for the one is in opposition to the other: a conflict which will never cease till the believer is altogether light in the Lord. If there be a division within the individual Christian, there is certain to be a division without.

So soon as the Lord gives to any man light, he proceeds to separate himself from the darkness around; he secedes from a merely worldly religion of outward ceremonial, for nothing short of the gospel of Christ will now satisfy him, and he withdraws himself from worldly society and frivolous amusements, and seeks the company of the saints, for “We know we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren.” The light gathers to itself, and the darkness to itself.

What God has divided, let us never try to unite, but as Christ went without the camp, bearing His reproach, so let us come out from the ungodly, and be a peculiar people. He was holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners; and, as He was, so we are to be nonconformists to the world, dissenting from all sin, and distinguished from the rest of mankind by our likeness to our Master.

Yes! Let us be distinguished from the world. Let us be selfless, abounding in grace and be ready unto every good works.

Beloveth, this week is declare blessed in the Name of the Lord. The Hand of the Lord will help you to do His will and His good pleasure. I see darkness having no path in your life in Jesus Name. I see you having dominion by our acts of kindness in Jesus Name.

Remain blessed in the Lord.
