    1 Chronicles 7

    Every Tribe Has a Place in God’s Plan

    1 Chronicles 7 continues the genealogies by recording several of the remaining tribes of Israel, including Issachar, Benjamin, Naphtali, Manasseh, Ephraim, and Asher. While the chapter is largely a collection of family records, it communicates an important theological truth: every tribe and every family had a place within God’s covenant purposes.

    The genealogies emphasize growth, strength, and military readiness. Many of the descendants are described as mighty men of valor, capable leaders, and faithful members of their tribes. These descriptions remind us that God equips His people with different gifts and responsibilities for the good of the entire covenant community.

    The chapter also includes moments of sorrow. The descendants of Ephraim experience significant loss when members of the family are killed while attempting to seize livestock. Their grief is remembered within the genealogy, demonstrating that Scripture does not ignore pain or suffering. Even within God’s covenant family, seasons of tragedy become part of the story.

    Yet the account does not end with grief. God continues His work through later generations. The line of Ephraim continues, eventually leading to Joshua, one of Israel’s greatest leaders. This quiet reminder demonstrates that God often brings future hope out of present sorrow. Human loss never has the final word when God is accomplishing His purposes.

    The tribes of Asher conclude the chapter with descriptions of strength, fruitfulness, and capable leadership. Together, these genealogies reveal a nation composed of many families, each contributing uniquely to the covenant people of God. None of the tribes stand alone. Together they form the nation through whom God will continue advancing His redemptive plan.

    Theologically, 1 Chronicles 7 reveals God's faithfulness to every tribe of Israel. He remembers individuals, preserves families, and continues His purposes across generations despite seasons of joy and sorrow. The chapter also teaches that every member of God’s people has significance within His larger plan.
    This chapter points to Christ, who unites God’s people into one family. The many tribes of Israel anticipated the greater unity found in Christ, where people from every nation, tribe, and language become one body under one eternal King. Jesus gives every believer a meaningful place within His kingdom and equips each one for faithful service.

    For believers today, 1 Chronicles 7 reminds us that God knows every family, every generation, and every life. Even when our role seems unnoticed, we remain important within His purposes. Seasons of sorrow do not remove us from His plan. In Christ, every believer has been called, gifted, and placed within His family to serve faithfully for His glory.

    1 Chronicles 8

    God Preserves the Line for His Purposes

    1 Chronicles 8 focuses primarily on the genealogy of the tribe of Benjamin. This chapter is especially significant because it prepares readers for the introduction of Saul and later David in the chapters that follow. The detailed record demonstrates that God was carefully preserving families and generations according to His sovereign purposes.

    Benjamin occupied an important place in Israel’s history. Although the tribe experienced great hardship earlier in Israel’s history, God preserved it and caused it to continue. The genealogies remind readers that God’s grace often restores what appears to have been nearly lost.

    The chapter records numerous families, leaders, and settlements associated with Benjamin. These details reveal God's concern not only for individuals but also for communities. He establishes people in places where they can live, work, worship, and contribute to the life of the nation. Every family becomes part of the unfolding story of God's covenant.

    As the genealogy progresses, increasing attention is given to the family that will eventually produce Saul, Israel’s first king. The Chronicler is preparing readers for the transition from the period of the judges to the monarchy. Although Saul’s reign will ultimately reveal the limitations of human leadership, his genealogy reminds us that even flawed leaders occupy a place within God’s sovereign plan.
    The preservation of Benjamin also demonstrates God's faithfulness despite human failure. Earlier generations had experienced conflict, judgment, and weakness, yet God continued sustaining the tribe. His covenant purposes were larger than the failures of any single generation.

    The chapter quietly emphasizes continuity. History is not a disconnected series of events but a carefully directed unfolding of God's redemptive plan. Every generation leads toward the greater purposes God has already established.

    Theologically, 1 Chronicles 8 reveals God's sovereign preservation of His people. He remembers families, restores what has been weakened, and faithfully guides history according to His covenant. The chapter demonstrates that God's purposes continue even through imperfect people and difficult generations.
    This chapter points to Christ by preparing the way for Israel’s kingship. Saul would become the nation’s first king, but his reign would reveal humanity’s inability to provide the perfect ruler. That anticipation ultimately points to Jesus Christ, the greater King who perfectly fulfills God’s covenant promises and reigns forever in righteousness.

    For believers today, 1 Chronicles 8 reminds us that God faithfully preserves His people through every generation. Our lives are connected to His larger redemptive story, even when we cannot fully see how He is working. In Christ, we belong to the family of God, and He continues accomplishing His eternal purposes through ordinary believers who faithfully follow Him. Our confidence rests not in human leadership but in the everlasting King who rules with perfect wisdom, justice, and grace.

    Ephesians 6 — Standing Firm in the Strength of the Christ

    Ephesians chapter 6 concludes the letter by bringing together everything Paul has taught about the believer's identity and calling in the Christ, the Son of God. The chapter moves from practical instruction for the home and workplace to the reality of spiritual warfare. It reminds believers that the Christian life is lived in dependence upon the strength of the Christ, who equips His people to stand firm as they participate in His redemptive plan.

    The chapter begins by addressing relationships within the family. Children are called to honor and obey their parents, reflecting God's order and demonstrating respect for His authority. Parents, in turn, are instructed to raise their children with loving discipline and godly instruction rather than harshness or discouragement. Christian living transforms the home because the Son of God changes the hearts of both parents and children, producing relationships marked by love, respect, and grace.

    Paul then addresses the relationship between servants and masters, emphasizing that every believer ultimately serves the Christ. Regardless of earthly responsibilities or positions, all work is to be done with sincerity, integrity, and a desire to honor the Son of God. The redemptive plan changes the believer's perspective on daily responsibilities. Ordinary tasks become acts of worship when performed for the glory of the Christ.

    The central focus of the chapter is the reality of spiritual warfare. Paul reminds believers that their greatest battle is not against other people but against spiritual forces that oppose God's purposes. Christian living therefore requires spiritual strength rather than human determination. The Son of God has not left His people defenseless. He provides everything necessary for them to stand firm against the enemy's attacks.

    Believers are called to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Victory does not come through personal ability but through dependence upon the Christ. The redemptive plan assures believers that the battle belongs to the Lord, and He faithfully equips those who trust in Him.
    Paul then describes the armor of God, illustrating the spiritual resources the Lord provides. Truth secures the believer against deception, righteousness guards the heart, the gospel of peace establishes stability, faith extinguishes the attacks of the enemy, salvation protects the mind, the Word of God serves as the Spirit's sword, and continual prayer keeps believers dependent upon the Lord. Each piece of armor points ultimately to the Christ, for He is the embodiment of truth, righteousness, peace, salvation, and the living Word. Christian living is strengthened as believers daily clothe themselves with the character and provision of the Son of God.

    Prayer occupies a central place in this spiritual battle. Paul encourages believers to pray continually with perseverance for themselves and for one another. The redemptive plan advances as God's people remain dependent upon Him in prayer. Through prayer, believers receive strength, wisdom, courage, and endurance to faithfully proclaim the gospel of the Christ.

    Even while imprisoned, Paul asks for prayer that he would boldly proclaim the message of the Son of God. His concern is not for personal comfort but for faithfulness to the mission God has entrusted to him. This demonstrates the heart of Christian living. Every circumstance becomes an opportunity to glorify the Christ and advance His kingdom.

    The letter concludes with words of peace, love, faith, and grace. These blessings summarize everything Paul has taught throughout Ephesians. The believer's life begins with grace, grows through faith, is sustained by love, and rests in the peace that comes through the Christ. The redemptive plan finds its fulfillment in a people who live under His lordship and reflect His character to the world.

    Throughout Ephesians chapter 6, the Christ is revealed as the believer's strength, protector, commander, and victorious King. Every piece of spiritual armor points back to Him, and every victory is accomplished through His power rather than our own. The Son of God equips His people to stand firm until His work is complete.

    For believers today, this chapter reminds us that the Christian life is both a privilege and a battle. We are called to faithfully honor the Lord in our homes, our work, and our relationships while recognizing the reality of spiritual warfare. Christian living requires daily dependence upon the strength of the Christ, continual prayer, and confidence in His victory. As we put on the armor He provides and stand firm in His truth, we become faithful witnesses of His grace and active participants in His eternal redemptive plan.

    1 Chronicles 3

    The Preserved Line of the Promised King

    1 Chronicles 3 continues tracing the family line of Judah by focusing specifically on the descendants of David. The chapter records David’s sons, the kings who followed him, and the continuation of the royal family after the Babylonian exile. Although it consists largely of names, it carries a powerful message about God’s faithfulness to His covenant.

    The chapter begins with the sons born to David during his reign in Hebron and Jerusalem. David’s family history includes both blessing and brokenness. Some of his sons became connected with painful moments of rebellion, rivalry, and personal tragedy. Yet God’s redemptive purposes continued even through an imperfect household.

    The genealogy then follows the royal line through Solomon. God had promised David that his house, kingdom, and throne would be established according to His covenant purpose. Solomon became the immediate heir to that promise, but the covenant pointed beyond him toward a greater and eternal King.

    As the names of Judah’s kings are recorded, the chapter quietly summarizes generations of leadership. Some kings followed the Lord faithfully, while others led the nation into compromise and idolatry. Their reigns differed greatly, but God continued preserving the royal line. The covenant remained secure, not because every descendant was faithful, but because God was faithful.

    The genealogy continues through the Babylonian exile. Jerusalem had fallen, the temple had been destroyed, and the visible kingdom of David appeared to have ended. Yet the family line continued. Even in exile, God preserved the descendants through whom His promise would ultimately be fulfilled.
    This demonstrates that exile did not cancel God’s covenant. Human failure brought discipline and loss, but it could not overturn the Lord’s redemptive plan. What appeared to be the end of the kingdom was only another stage in God’s preparation for the coming Messiah.

    Theologically, 1 Chronicles 3 reveals God’s sovereign preservation of the Davidic line. Earthly kings failed, kingdoms declined, and the nation entered captivity, yet God’s promise remained alive. His covenant depended upon His own faithfulness rather than the strength or righteousness of human rulers.
    This chapter points directly to Jesus Christ, the promised Son of David. He is the true heir to David’s throne and the King whose reign will never end. The royal genealogy preserved through exile ultimately leads to Christ, in whom every promise concerning David’s kingdom finds complete fulfillment.

    For believers today, 1 Chronicles 3 reminds us that God’s promises remain secure even when circumstances appear hopeless. Human failure, national instability, and seasons of discipline cannot destroy what God has determined to accomplish. In Christ, we belong to an eternal kingdom ruled by the faithful King. We can trust that the God who preserved His promise through generations will remain faithful in every season of our lives.

    1 Chronicles 4

    God’s Grace Among Ordinary People

    1 Chronicles 4 continues the genealogical record of Judah and also traces the descendants of Simeon. The chapter contains many names unfamiliar to modern readers, yet each one represents a person, family, occupation, and place remembered within the history of God’s covenant people. The chapter reminds us that God’s work is carried forward not only through famous kings and prophets but also through ordinary individuals and families.

    Among the genealogy appears the brief account of Jabez. His name is connected with pain, but his life is not controlled by that beginning. Jabez calls upon the God of Israel, asking for blessing, enlarged influence, divine guidance, and protection from evil. God grants his request.

    The account of Jabez does not teach that prayer is a formula for personal prosperity. Instead, it reveals a man who recognizes his complete dependence upon God. He does not rely upon his background, strength, or family position. He asks the Lord to direct his future and keep him from the evil that could bring further sorrow.

    His story demonstrates that a difficult beginning does not have to determine a person’s future. God’s grace is greater than the circumstances surrounding our birth, family history, or past experiences. When people seek Him sincerely, He is able to lead them beyond the limitations others may place upon them.

    The chapter also mentions craftsmen, potters, workers, leaders, and families who occupied particular towns and fulfilled practical responsibilities. These details reveal that ordinary work has value within God’s purposes. Service does not need to be publicly recognized to matter to the Lord.

    The descendants of Simeon are also described as seeking land for their flocks and defeating enemies who occupied the territory. Their account reflects the importance of courage, diligence, and acting upon the opportunities God provides. They did not remain passive but worked together to establish a place for their families.

    At the same time, the chapter must be understood within the unfolding history of Israel. These families were living within the covenant structure God had established for His people. Their victories, settlements, occupations, and family lines all formed part of the larger story leading toward the kingdom of David and ultimately toward Christ.

    Theologically, 1 Chronicles 4 reveals that God works through both prominent and ordinary people. He hears prayer, directs families, gives meaningful work, and uses faithful lives within His redemptive plan. The chapter also demonstrates that identity is not determined merely by pain or human circumstances but by God’s grace and calling.

    This chapter points to Christ, who brings people into a new identity that is not controlled by their past. Through Jesus, believers receive forgiveness, spiritual blessing, divine purpose, and deliverance from the power of evil. He enlarges our influence not for selfish ambition but so that our lives may display His grace and advance His kingdom.

    For believers today, 1 Chronicles 4 reminds us that no life is insignificant to God. He sees faithful service that others overlook, hears the prayers of those who depend upon Him, and can redeem even painful beginnings. In Christ, our past does not define our future. We are called to seek God’s hand upon our lives, serve faithfully wherever He places us, and use every opportunity for His glory and the advancement of His redemptive purposes.

    Ephesians 4 — Walking Worthy of the Calling in the Christ

    Ephesians chapter 4 marks the transition from the doctrinal truths of the first half of the letter to the practical application of those truths. Having explained all that believers possess through the Christ, the Son of God, Paul now calls them to live in a manner worthy of their calling. Christian living is the natural response to God's redemptive plan. The believer's conduct should reflect the grace, unity, and holiness that have already been provided through the Christ.

    The chapter begins with an appeal to walk worthy of the calling believers have received. This worthy walk is characterized by humility, gentleness, patience, and love. These qualities reflect the character of the Son of God and preserve the unity of His Church. The redemptive plan has brought believers into one family, and Christian living seeks to protect that unity through selfless love rather than personal ambition.

    Paul emphasizes that there is one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father. This repeated emphasis on oneness reveals that unity is not created by believers but given by God through the Christ. The Son of God has already made His people one, and they are now called to live consistently with that reality.

    The chapter also teaches that the Christ has given spiritual gifts to His Church. These gifts are not for personal recognition but for equipping believers, strengthening the body, and advancing God's kingdom. The redemptive plan includes the growth and maturity of the Church as every believer faithfully serves according to the grace given by the Son of God. Christian living is never passive; every believer has a meaningful role in building up the body of Christ.

    As believers mature, they become stable in their faith and are no longer easily influenced by false teaching or spiritual deception. Instead, they grow by speaking the truth in love while remaining firmly connected to the Christ, who is the head of the Church. Spiritual maturity is measured not merely by knowledge but by increasing conformity to the character of the Son of God.

    Paul then contrasts the believer's new life with the old way of living. Those who do not know the Christ continue in spiritual darkness because they are separated from the life of God. But believers have learned a different way through the Son of God. The redemptive plan transforms the heart, leading to an entirely new pattern of living. Christian living involves putting away the old sinful lifestyle and embracing the new life created by God's grace.

    The chapter describes this transformation as putting off the old self and putting on the new self. This new life reflects God's righteousness and holiness because it is created through the work of the Christ. The change is not merely outward behavior but inward renewal as the believer's mind is continually shaped by God's truth.

    Paul then applies these principles to everyday relationships. Believers are called to speak truthfully, control anger, work honestly, use words that encourage rather than destroy, show kindness, forgive one another, and avoid attitudes that grieve the Holy Spirit. Every area of life is to reflect the grace believers have received through the Son of God. Christian living is demonstrated not only in public worship but also in ordinary conversations, relationships, and daily choices.

    The chapter concludes with one of its greatest exhortations: believers are to forgive one another because God has forgiven them in the Christ. Forgiveness is not based on human merit but on the immeasurable grace demonstrated through the cross. The redemptive plan continually calls believers to extend to others the same mercy they have received from the Son of God.

    Throughout Ephesians chapter 4, the Christ remains the center of the believer's new life. He unites His Church, equips His people, transforms their character, and provides the perfect example of humility, truth, and forgiveness. Every aspect of Christian living flows from the new identity believers have received through Him.

    For believers today, this chapter reminds us that our conduct should reflect our calling in the Christ. Christian living is marked by humility, unity, spiritual maturity, and continual transformation. We are called to leave behind the old way of life and daily put on the character of the Son of God. As we speak truth in love, serve one another faithfully, forgive freely, and walk in holiness, we become living demonstrations of God's redemptive plan and faithful witnesses to the transforming grace of the Christ.

God’s grace is greater than the circumstances surrounding our birth, family history, or past experiences. When people seek Him sincerely, He is able to lead them beyond the limitations others may place upon them. The chapter also mentions craftsmen, potters, workers, leaders, and families who occupied particular towns and fulfilled practical responsibilities. These details reveal that ordinary work has value within God’s purposes. Service does not need to be publicly recognized to matter to the Lord. The descendants of Simeon are also described as seeking land for their flocks and defeating enemies who occupied the territory. Their account reflects the importance of courage, diligence, and acting upon the opportunities God provides. They did not remain passive but worked together to establish a place for their families. At the same time, the chapter must be understood within the unfolding history of Israel. These families were living within the covenant structure God had established for His people. Their victories, settlements, occupations, and family lines all formed part of the larger story leading toward the kingdom of David and ultimately toward Christ. Theologically, 1 Chronicles 4 reveals that God works through both prominent and ordinary people. He hears prayer, directs families, gives meaningful work, and uses faithful lives within His redemptive plan. The chapter also demonstrates that identity is not determined merely by pain or human circumstances but by God’s grace and calling. This chapter points to Christ, who brings people into a new identity that is not controlled by their past. Through Jesus, believers receive forgiveness, spiritual blessing, divine purpose, and deliverance from the power of evil. He enlarges our influence not for selfish ambition but so that our lives may display His grace and advance His kingdom. For believers today, 1 Chronicles 4 reminds us that no life is insignificant to God. He sees faithful service that others overlook, hears the prayers of those who depend upon Him, and can redeem even painful beginnings. In Christ, our past does not define our future. We are called to seek God’s hand upon our lives, serve faithfully wherever He places us, and use every opportunity for His glory and the advancement of His redemptive purposes. Ephesians 4 — Walking Worthy of the Calling in the Christ Ephesians chapter 4 marks the transition from the doctrinal truths of the first half of the letter to the practical application of those truths. Having explained all that believers possess through the Christ, the Son of God, Paul now calls them to live in a manner worthy of their calling. Christian living is the natural response to God's redemptive plan. The believer's conduct should reflect the grace, unity, and holiness that have already been provided through the Christ. The chapter begins with an appeal to walk worthy of the calling believers have received. This worthy walk is characterized by humility, gentleness, patience, and love. These qualities reflect the character of the Son of God and preserve the unity of His Church. The redemptive plan has brought believers into one family, and Christian living seeks to protect that unity through selfless love rather than personal ambition. Paul emphasizes that there is one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father. This repeated emphasis on oneness reveals that unity is not created by believers but given by God through the Christ. The Son of God has already made His people one, and they are now called to live consistently with that reality. The chapter also teaches that the Christ has given spiritual gifts to His Church. These gifts are not for personal recognition but for equipping believers, strengthening the body, and advancing God's kingdom. The redemptive plan includes the growth and maturity of the Church as every believer faithfully serves according to the grace given by the Son of God. Christian living is never passive; every believer has a meaningful role in building up the body of Christ. As believers mature, they become stable in their faith and are no longer easily influenced by false teaching or spiritual deception. Instead, they grow by speaking the truth in love while remaining firmly connected to the Christ, who is the head of the Church. Spiritual maturity is measured not merely by knowledge but by increasing conformity to the character of the Son of God. Paul then contrasts the believer's new life with the old way of living. Those who do not know the Christ continue in spiritual darkness because they are separated from the life of God. But believers have learned a different way through the Son of God. The redemptive plan transforms the heart, leading to an entirely new pattern of living. Christian living involves putting away the old sinful lifestyle and embracing the new life created by God's grace. The chapter describes this transformation as putting off the old self and putting on the new self. This new life reflects God's righteousness and holiness because it is created through the work of the Christ. The change is not merely outward behavior but inward renewal as the believer's mind is continually shaped by God's truth. Paul then applies these principles to everyday relationships. Believers are called to speak truthfully, control anger, work honestly, use words that encourage rather than destroy, show kindness, forgive one another, and avoid attitudes that grieve the Holy Spirit. Every area of life is to reflect the grace believers have received through the Son of God. Christian living is demonstrated not only in public worship but also in ordinary conversations, relationships, and daily choices. The chapter concludes with one of its greatest exhortations: believers are to forgive one another because God has forgiven them in the Christ. Forgiveness is not based on human merit but on the immeasurable grace demonstrated through the cross. The redemptive plan continually calls believers to extend to others the same mercy they have received from the Son of God. Throughout Ephesians chapter 4, the Christ remains the center of the believer's new life. He unites His Church, equips His people, transforms their character, and provides the perfect example of humility, truth, and forgiveness. Every aspect of Christian living flows from the new identity believers have received through Him. For believers today, this chapter reminds us that our conduct should reflect our calling in the Christ. Christian living is marked by humility, unity, spiritual maturity, and continual transformation. We are called to leave behind the old way of life and daily put on the character of the Son of God. As we speak truth in love, serve one another faithfully, forgive freely, and walk in holiness, we become living demonstrations of God's redemptive plan and faithful witnesses to the transforming grace of the Christ. #DailyBibleReading #OpenYourBible #StudyTheWord #ScriptureForToday #FaithJourney #GodsWord #BibleTime #WalkWithGod

  • The Story Behind the Hymns.
    THE STORY BEHIND "SOFTLY AND TENDERLY JESUS IS CALLING "

    “Softly and Tenderly Jesus Is Calling” is one of the best-known Christian invitation hymns, written by American hymn writer and composer Will Lamartine Thompson in 1880.

    Thompson was born in East Liverpool, Ohio, in 1847 and became a successful songwriter and publisher. Unlike many hymns that emerged from formal church traditions, “Softly and Tenderly” came from Thompson’s personal desire to create a simple song that would appeal directly to people who needed to make a spiritual decision.

    The hymn’s central message is an invitation: Jesus is calling people to come to Him, return to Him, and receive His mercy. Its gentle words “Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling, calling for you and for me” gives the song its distinctive character. Rather than using threatening language, Thompson presented the call of Christ as loving, patient and compassionate.

    One of the most memorable stories associated with the hymn involves evangelist Dwight L. Moody. Thompson reportedly visited Moody when the evangelist was seriously ill. During their meeting, Thompson told him that he had written the hymn and that he hoped it would be useful in Christian ministry. Moody was deeply moved by the song and encouraged its use in evangelistic meetings.

    After Moody's death in 1899, the hymn became even more widely known through evangelistic campaigns and church services. Over the years, it has been sung at revival meetings, altar calls, funerals and moments of personal reflection. Its enduring appeal lies in its simplicity: a gentle reminder that the invitation to come to Christ is still open.

    More than 140 years after it was written, “Softly and Tenderly” remains a powerful hymn because its message has not changed — Jesus calls, and the invitation is extended to everyone.

    TOPIC :THE LAW OF HARVEST

    AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A ADEBOYE

    MEMORISE: "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease." Genesis 8:22 (KJV)

    BIBLE READING: 1 CORINTHIANS 15:37-44
    37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
    38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
    39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
    40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
    41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
    42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
    43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
    44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

    MESSAGE:
    The law of harvest is one of the most powerful laws created by God. It states that ‘whatever a person sows is what he or she will reap’ (Galatians 6:7), and it is so powerful that God applied it to Himself when He wanted more children.
    John 12:24 says a corn of wheat must first be sown into the ground and die before it can bring forth much fruit.
    So God sowed His only begotten son (Jesus Christ), so that He might gain many more children, and Jesus would become the firstborn among many brethren (Romans 8:29).

    Many years ago, there was a man in Nigeria who would hand out cash to people randomly wherever he went.
    People followed him everywhere he went because they knew that he would give them money.
    Some people wondered if he was mad, but he wasn’t; he only discovered that the more he gave out money, the more he received.
    Anyone who truly discovers the secret of the law of harvest would never be begged to give.

    The law of harvest is so powerful that when a person sows a seed of kindness or wickedness, the fellow will harvest what he or she has sown in bountiful folds.
    Nobody sows a grain of corn and harvests a grain; if you sow a grain of corn, the least harvest you can expect is a cob of corn with many grains.
    Job 4:8 says “…they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.” People who spend their time scheming to harm others will eventually fall into the traps they created.
    Likewise, if you sow kindness, you will reap an abundance of kindness. Hosea 10:12 says that when people sow in righteousness, they will reap in mercy.

    Beloved, one thing you must constantly sow as a believer is good works. Dorcas could never have known that the harvest of her good works towards the widows in her community would come in the form of her being resurrected from the dead (Acts 9:36-42) – that is another mystery about the law of harvest.
    Today’s Bible reading tells us that whatever is sown often returns in another form because God gives the seed a body as He pleases.
    Dorcas’ seed of kindness returned in a bigger, better form as God’s gift of resurrection.
    Keep sowing good works, and watch God repay you in ways beyond your wildest imagination.

    KEY POINT:
    You will reap what you sow; therefore, sow good works everywhere you go.

    BIBLE READING IN ONE YEAR: EZEKIEL 25-27

    HYMN 16: ‘TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS
    1. Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, Just to take Him at His Word;
    Just to rest upon His promise; Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord."

    CHORUS:
    Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
    How I 've proved Him o'er and o'er!
    Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
    O for grace to trust Him more

    2. O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
    Just to trust His cleansing blood;
    Just in simple faith to plunge me
    'Neath the healing, cleansing flood!

    3. Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
    Just from sin and self to cease;
    Just from Jesus simply taking
    Life and rest, and joy and peace.

    4. I'm so glad Learned to trust Thee, Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend,
    And I know that Thou art with me,
    Wilt be with me to the end. '

    HAPPY NEW MONTH TO YOU ALL!.

  • Devotion: Hebrews 4:12

    “The word of God is alive and active, sharper than any double-edged sword. It cuts all the way through, to where soul and spirit meet, to where joints and marrow come together. It judges the desires and thoughts of the heart.” GNB

    If you ever had any doubts about the power of God’s Word, then this verse should give you peace of mind. Look at what the author says! The Word of God is like a SWORD! And not just any sword, either, a VERY SHARP, double-edged sword. It cuts through bone and reaches the deepest, darkest corners of your soul. NOTHING can hide from its power.

    Luke 11:28: “…how happy are those who hear the word of God and obey it!” GNB

    The message written in the Bible is not meant as superficial entertainment. It holds within its pages a multitude of truths meant just for you. You CANNOT IGNORE it. Once you’ve heard or read the Word of God, it cannot be UNHEARD. Since it cuts deep into your soul. You can be assured that your soul and your mind will keep on reminding you of the truth you’ve heard.

    Psalm 119:129-130: “Your teachings are wonderful; I obey them with all my heart. The explanation of your teachings gives light and brings wisdom to the ignorant.” GNB

    Obeying and studying the Word of God would helps you to examine yourself, so that you can seek out the things the Word warns against, should it reside in you. Not only does it identify sin, but it gives the solution. It tells you HOW to overcome that sin.

    John 17:17: “Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.” ESV

    Colossians 3:16: “Christ’s message [His Word] in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct each other with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts.” GNB
