NEW TESTAMENT GOSPEL BENEFITS FOR PAST AND PRESENT BELIEVERS
Leadership Development (15th September, 2020) NEW TESTAMENT GOSPEL BENEFITS FOR PAST AND PRESENT BELIEVERS Psalm 32:1,2; Romans 4:5-8,22-25 The verses of Scripture under consideration teach important lessons about justification by faith and receiving salvation from the Lord. Imputing of God’s righteousness to believers is not peculiar to the New Testament. The Old Testament believers also received the benefits of reconciliation, righteousness, regeneration and spiritual resurrection from the Lord. Yet, it was not just for the worthies of old alone, “But…
CHRIST’S PURPOSEFUL CALL INTO HIS KINGDOM
Monday Bible Study (September 14, 2020) CHRIST’S PURPOSEFUL CALL INTO HIS KINGDOM 1 Corinthians 1:1-9 Our call to salvation is a call to the kingdom of God. As Paul the apostle, the writer of the epistle to the Corinthians, was called to the kingdom of God, the believers in Corinth were also “called to be saints”. A sinner comes into the kingdom of God the moment he or she repents and turns to the Lord. Christ said, “Except a man…
SUPERNATURAL SIGNS FOLLOWING BELIEVERS TILL THE END
Monday Bible Study(07 September, 2020) SUPERNATURAL SIGNS FOLLOWING BELIEVERS TILL THE END Mark 16:17-20 Supernatural signs follow believers. These signs are not only for the early apostles, but also for all those “that believe” in Christ’s name now and until the end of the world. Therefore, as believers, we ought to find out the supernatural signs that should follow us until our Lord comes again for the saints. Point one: THE SPECTACULAR SOURCE OF FAITH FOR STEADFAST BELIEVERS…

So are these three Psalms. Psalm twenty-two talks about Christ on the cross, when He provided for our salvation to reconcile us unto God. It portrays Him as the good Shepherd who gave “his life for the sheep”. Psalm twenty-three pictures Christ as the great…
THE CHALLENGING MINISTRY OF TRANSFORMING FOOLS FOR HEAVEN
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT MEETING (AUGUST 18, 2020) THE CHALLENGING MINISTRY OF TRANSFORMING FOOLS FOR HEAVEN Psalms 14,15 & 53 Ministers and preachers have the challenging ministry of transforming people (fools) for heaven. “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, THERE IS NONE THAT DOETH GOOD”. This is another way of saying ‘all have sinned and come short of the glory of God’. If all are fools and show foolishness…
GOD’S SUSTAINING POWER FOR PERSECUTED SAINTS
Leadership Development 28th July 2020 GOD’S SUSTAINING POWER FOR PERSECUTED SAINTS 1 Peter 4:12-19; Proverbs 19:2: Acts 9:16; John 16:4; 1 Thessalonians 3:3,4; 2 Timothy 3:12; 1 Peter 4:12-19 Trials and persecutions are common to saints of God. “Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you…” When trials, persecutions, difficulties and challenges come because of our calling and ministry, we should not see it as a “strange thing”. We should not think we are…

Point 2. THE POWERLESSNESS OF THE FAITHLESS AMONG SAINTS Mark 9:14-22,28; James 1:6-7; Hebrews 3:12,19; 4:1-2,6; Ephesians 6:16 When a believer, a child of God prays, what makes your prayer to be answered is your faith in Christ. Your fasting becomes effective as a result of your faith in God. There are many who pray and do a lot of shouting, acrobatics, and a lot of sacrificial things that put pain on them; but it is your faith in God…

Study 34 – THE POSSIBILITIES OF UNWAVERING FAITH IN CHRIST Text – Mark 9:9-29

Point 2. OUR CAUSELESS PANIC WITH UNNECESSARY TORMENTS Mark 6:49-50; 1 John 4:18; Psalms 53:5; 2 Kings 6:14-18; Deuteronomy 2:8,9,19; Numbers 22:2-6; Deuteronomy 23:3-5; Isaiah 37:6,36,38; 51:7,12-13; 2 Timothy 1:7; Hebrews 2:14-15; 13:5 Many times, we manifest unnecessary panic, fear, fright, anxiety, torment and get into trouble because of our supposition. Our interpretation gets us into trouble. “But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out” (Mark 6:49). There are…
