PROVERBS DAILY

It is pathetic how some men has been brought down low and their strength drained out. Just because they gave the key that opens the door into their powerhouse to women.

Dear strong man, learn from Samson for thou canst be stronger than him. He gave the key into his powerhouse to a woman, his sight went for it and he was brought down so low.
To the great ones in wisdom, remember thou that the heart of Solomon the wisest King was turned away from God by women.

May God save us from the hands and snares of strange women

THE SALVATION AND THE SECURITY OF HIS SHEEP

MONDAY BIBLE STUDY
BY PASTOR W. F. KUMUYI
ON OCTOBER 30TH, 2017

THE SALVATION AND THE SECURITY OF HIS SHEEP
John 10:22-30
Here was the Shepherd yet they were not protected. Here was the Redeemer, yet they were bot saved. Here was the Savior but they belittled him and lost incalculable blessings. The failure for them to see was because of the blinding leading influence of their leaders. Those Jews could only think through the mind of the leaders that were hardened already.
So many still depend on some blind leaders to lead them even when they have the Bible

STAND FAST; STAND IN WATCHFULNESS AND BE WISE

STAND FAST; STAND IN WATCHFULNESS AND BE WISE

Standing fast will last longer if he who is standing is watching. Paying close attention to occurrences around and the Satan's plot is not usually enough for him that is standing. He must pay this detailed attention continuously because the insatiable hunger of the devil to have you derailed in your Christian stand. Wisdom will help the watchman make his watching effective. The kind of wisdom that will make a watchman stand out is not the one initiated by human effort but divinely orchestrated. The standing Christian must always take divine instruction from the Lord and act on it with divine wisdom.

"Wisdom will make a standing watchman know when to hide himself and when to come out to be seen even by his adversary"

PROVERBS DAILY

"Holy words long preserved
For our walk in this world
They resound with God's own heart
Oh, let the ancient words impart"

"Words of Life, words of Hope
Give us strength, help us cope
In this world, where e'er we roam
Ancient words will guide us home"

It is only the words of men that are fallible but We have a more sure word of prophecy, THE WORD OF GOD

PROVERBS DAILY

Don't wait until you attain the presidential position before you rule in righteousness. Any leadership position you occupy (no matter how seemingly infinitesimal it appears) it is an avenue for you to display faithfulness and loyalty in service. Let ruling with the fear of God begin with you

PROVERBS DAILY

If you do evil it will suppress good and strengthen the evil men to do more evil. Rather, do good to suppress evil and strengthen the good men to do good.
The way to eradicate corruption is not only to keep talking about it; It is by not following the path of the corrupters but in the corrected path.

THE FIRST PENTECOSTAL CRUSADE

Following Christ makes us a recipient of great grand promises. At the entrance of the kingdom is the promise of salvation. The higher we aspire the more we benefit. Following on we discover sanctification, spirit baptism, peace, joy, and many more things. There is till a lot if you can continue.
In the other way round, there is GRACE at the entrance, as you move on there is GODLINESS and GIFT of the Holy Spirit
