May is a very special month not because it's the month of my birth but because five is the number of grace and May is the fifth month of the year which represents grace. To be honest, everything about this month has been exceptionally exceptional.
Daily Guide has been exceptional since the beginning of this month, I've been careful to note every detail in what God has been saying through the Daily Guide all month long. Please read and meditate on each point noted, am sure you will be blessed.
God sometimes allows His people to suffer for their actions as He did with Isreal. He allows it in order to bring us back to Himself, and cleanse our hearts and lives for His glory.
Righteous living requires avoiding sin, making good decisions and being disciplined. It is a skill to be developed if we are to attract more people to God. We must pursue excellence in Christian living in the same way we pursue excellence at our work place or school.
There was a time when a man's word was said to be his bond. But today, we swear affidavit on lies. If God were to deal with you as He did with Isreal, what would be the result? We cry about rampant corruption. We can change our world by being honest ourselves.
Many Church leaders today exploit their flock for selfish reasons by preaching only what their followers want to hear. Such leaders offer Pentecost without Calvary.
These are salient truths and points from Jeremiah Chapter 3-5.
Salient points from the book of Romans Chapter 1-3:1-8
The Gospel is for everyone without any discrimination. But once people accept the Gospel and become members of God's family, they are expected to live holy lives.
Praying for people around us and in unreached regions of the world, people who are yet to receive Christ as Saviour, is a very important duty of all believers towards missions.
It is easy to see the error in others while we are also deeply involved in some unethical and wrong practices. We may complain about the corrupt practices of political and religious leaders without looking at how we are also engaging in corruption and other sinful lifestyles.
Anyone who claims to be a Christian should be someone who knows what God wants, lives in obedience to His laws and shows others what it means to be a follower of Christ by living an exemplary life.
Our spiritual life - the condition of our inner man, holiness, purity and an obedient spirit - is more important to God than religious activities. All religious activities such as church attendance, good deeds, conforming to church rules and regulations, etc are useless if they do not lead to transformation in our lives. It is like being a Jew, being circumcised, without keeping the law.
No matter the privileges and opportunities we may have to know more about God than others around us, they cannot earn us salvation. Salvation is only by grace through faith in the redemptive sacrifice of Christ Jesus.
