Divine Missions 2

MEMORY VERSE: “Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.” John 4:34

BIBLE PASSAGE: Isaiah 61:1-3

INTRODUCTION
In our last lesson on divine missions, we were told who a missionary is so that we do not begin to have a wrong idea about him. Missionaries are people with a call. They are special. It is interesting to note that Jesus our Lord was a missionary. May the Spirit of the Lord open our hearts as we study, in Jesus’ name.

OUTLINE
1. JESUS AS A MISSIONARY
2. JESUS AS A SENDER OF MISSIONARIES

JESUS AS A MISSIONARY
The most important aspect of the definition of a missionary is that a higher authority sent Jesus. Jesus said it several times that He was sent by the Father whom He said is greater than Him – John 7:16, 9:4,3:17,17:4. Jesus mentioned the fact that His father sent Him, forty three times in the Gospel of John as well as in the other Gospels. The purpose of this sending was that the world might be saved.
Another thing about a missionary is that his work usually requires a change in location as well as culture. Jesus left Heaven, a different place, with a different culture, different language and a different people to come to this earth that is different in every way to Heaven so that we would know and serve the true God. He came to provide us with salvation and reconcile us to God – John 8:23; 5:33,38; Acts 26:16-18; Luke 19:10.
What did Jesus do as a missionary? He taught publicly and ministered to the crowd. He taught both Jews and Gentiles such as the Samaritan woman in John 4 who recognised Him as the Saviour of the world. He met the Syro-pheonician woman (Matt. 15:21-28), the Roman Centurion (Matthew 8:5-13), healed the possessed man and other people in Decapolis (Matthew 5:1-20; 7:31-37.) Those Gentiles put their faith in Him as He helped them. He first sent them to the Jews and later to all nations. This is cross-cultural missions – Matthew 28:19-20; 10:5¬7. We must teach, preach and heal. We must be ready to suffer in order to take the Gospel to those not yet reached who are lost. We must complete His work by taking the news to them – Matthew 4:23.

JESUS AS A SENDER OF MISSIONARIES
Jesus was not only a missionary but also sends out missionaries to all the nations of the world to preach the good news. Jesus, during His ministry on earth, said the good news about Him would be preached to the whole world. This did not materialise until His resurrection from the dead. Before He went back to Heaven, He commissioned all His disciples in what is generally known as, ”The Great Commission” to take the Gospel to all the nooks and crannies of the earth. We all are His disciples and therefore should be fully involved in carrying out His instructions – Mark 16:15-16; Luke 24:45-49; John 20:21-22; Acts 1 :8.
This instruction was given at various times. It was given on the resurrection day, as recorded by Mark, Luke and John, on the mount of Olives before His ascension and on the mount of Galilee as recorded by Matthew. This instruction was so important to Jesus that He had to give it more than once. He also gave Paul a similar call in Acts 26:16-18. The prayer of Jesus in John 17:18 clearly shows that sending people out was part of what Christ was sent to do.

CONCLUSION
We cannot afford to disobey the Lord in this regard. If He takes it seriously, we must also.

QUESTIONS
1. Why did Jesus repeat the instructions to preach to all nations several times?
2. Apart from Jesus and Paul, name three other missionaries in the New Testament.

BLESSED WEEK WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

THUR: Matthew 5:9 – To make peace between God and man, this is our work.
FRI: Hebrews 10:39 -No matter what we may be going through, going back is not the best option.
SAT: 1 Peter 3: 15 – Christ must be the reason for anything we do.

Gratitude to God: The Power of Thankfulness

Posted on September 16, 2025 by Prayer

Gratitude To God.
Text:
Psalm 107:21-27
They must thank the Lord for his constant love, for the wonderful things he did for them.
22 They must thank him with sacrifices, and with songs of joy must tell all that he has done.

23 Some sailed over the ocean in ships, earning their living on the seas.
24 They saw what the Lord can do, his wonderful acts on the seas.
25 He commanded, and a mighty wind began to blow and stirred up the waves.
26 The ships were lifted high in the air and plunged down into the depths.
In such danger the sailors lost their courage;
27 they stumbled and staggered like drunks— all their skill was useless.

Why Should We Show Gratitude Or Give Thanks To The Lord?
Psalm 107:1-3
“Give thanks to the Lord, because he is good; his love is eternal!”
2 Repeat these words in praise to the Lord, all you whom he has saved. He has rescued you from your enemies
3 and has brought you back from foreign countries, from east and west, from north and south.

Psalm 103:1-6
Praise the Lord, my soul!
All my being, praise his holy name!
2 Praise the Lord, my soul, and do not forget how kind he is.
3 He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases.
4 He keeps me from the grave and blesses me with love and mercy.
5 He fills my life with good things, so that I stay young and strong like an eagle.

6 The Lord judges in favor of the oppressed and gives them their rights.

John 3:16
For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life.

How Do We Show Gratitude To God.
1. Keep track of what you are thankful for.
Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.

2. Vocalizing our “Thank You.”
Psalm 34:1
I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
3. Don’t complain 24 hours.
1 Corinthians 10:9-11
9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

4. Recognize God’s hands to acknowledge him.
Proverbs 3:5-6
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

5. Repent of our sin.
2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

6. Obey God’s commandment and to please Him.
1 John 5:3
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

7. To meditate on God’s Words.
Joshua 1:8
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

8. To rejoice in the Lord.
Philippians 4:4
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.

9. Praising God.
Psalm 68:19
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.

Psalm 150:6
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.

10. To be content with what we have.
Philippians 4:12-13
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

Thank You Jesus.

May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit Be With You All. Amen!

Born From Above: Embrace Your Spiritual Authority

Posted on September 15, 2025 by Prayer

From Heaven.

“He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: He that cometh from heaven is above all” John 3:31

The text says that He that is from above is above all. The “He” refers to Jesus, He came from above and so He is above all. But since we are born again it refers to us also. When you gave your life to Christ, you entered into a relationship that catapulted you from the realm of failure to the realm of success for where Jesus is, is where you are also, because you are in Christ.

Jesus said except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God (John 3:3). Also except a man be born of the water and the Spirit he cannot enter the Kingdom of God (John 3:5). By the new Birth every believer is In Christ. The Bible goes on to say that if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17). Yes your physical body does not change, but the real you does, your real you, your spirit man becomes new.

If you are in Christ, you are automatically where He is. He is above Satan and his cohorts. He is above sin, sickness, disease, poverty, death, depression, frustration, deception etc. that means that you, the believer, is above them too. Put on that mentality and rise above Satan’s intimidation and deception. You are born from above and so you are above all. Declare it three times to yourself with your eyes closed: “I am from above and so I am above all” Paint the imagination; see yourself above that challenge and it will come to pass – you have what you see.

Go out today with that understanding and rejoice.

The Sin of Adam and Eve: Understanding Temptation

Posted on September 15, 2025 by Prayer

Advertisements

ADAM AND EVE

Why did Adam and Eve disobey God?

Adam and Eve were sinless and perfect when God created them.
But they still could choose to do what was wrong (just like you and I can
choose to do what we aren’t supposed to do).

When the devil tempted them to eat the forbidden fruit, they
chose to do it. Although people talk about Adam and Eve eating an “apple” in
the Garden of Eden, we don’t know what the fruit looked like or how it tasted.
All we know is that it was the one fruit in that big, beautiful Garden that
they weren’t supposed to eat.

Adam and Eve ate the fruit because the devil started them
thinking about what it might be like. Then he lied about God’s rule to make
them think that God was keeping something good from them. Pretty soon they
wanted to eat the fruit more than they wanted to obey God’s rule.

Choosing to obey God is always
better than choosing to disobey Him!

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria
and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Psalms 11. Faith in the LORD’s righteousness. Confidence in the LORD

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David

1 In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? 2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. 3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

4 The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’S throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. 5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. 6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup. 7 For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

The Importance of Rest for a Healthy Body

Posted on September 15, 2025 by Prayer

Advertisements

YOUR BODY NEEDS REST!

And He said unto them, “Come ye
yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest awhile: for there were many
coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat (Mark 6:31)

Many times
we just work and work and don’t know when to give our bodies the necessary
rest. It’s good to be hardworking and very diligent at work but at the same
time it’s equally important to realize that the human body has a limit of
exertion it can endure. Stretching it beyond that limit makes the body subject
to unnecessary wear and tear.

It’s
therefore important you take very good care of your body, not only in the
things you eat and do to your body, but also in making sure your body is well
rested. The Bible tells us how that God blessed and sanctified the seventh day:
“because that in it He had rested from
all work…..” (Genesis 2:3).

The Lord
Jesus, as our opening scripture indicates, took time off with His disciples to
rest. Then in Mark 4:38, we learnt that He rested His body in sleep when He got
tired: “And He was in the hinder part of
the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto Him, Master,
carest thou not that we perish?” On
another occasion, He rested at the well of Samaria as revealed in John 4:6: “Now Jacob’s well was there: Jesus
therefore, being wearied with His journey, sat thus on the well: and it was
about the sixth hour”

The Lord
rested because He was tired. So it’s possible to get tired, and when you get
tired, you need to rest your body so it can recover. Many don’t do this and the
implication is that they stand the risk of wearing out their bodies. Giving
your body adequate rest is a way to maintain good health, so take it very
seriously.

PRAYER

DEAR FATHER, THANK YOU
FOR YOUR WORD THAT HAS ENLIGHTENED ME ON THE NECESSITY AND IMPORTANCE OF TAKING
GOOD CARE OF MY BODY. THROUGH YOUR HELP, I’M ABLE TO GIVE MY BODY THE NECESSARY
REST IT REQUIRES TO REMAIN HEALTHY, STRONG AND FIT FOR THE TASK AHEAD. I THANK
YOU, LORD, FOR YOUR WORD, INDEED, IS GAINING THE MASTERY OVER MY BODY, EVEN AS
IT RENEWS THE STRENGTH OF MY INNER MAN DAILY, IN THE MIG HTY NAME OF JESUS,
AMEN!

BE CONSCIOUS
OF WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS

Jesus said unto him, have I been so
long time with you, and yet have thou not known me, Philip? He that has seen me
has seen the Father….. (John 14:9)

When Jesus
walked the earth, He had the consciousness of a king that distinguished Him
from the crowd. He had no consciousness of lack and He always confidently spoke
words that amazed the religious people of His day.

One day, He
said “the words that I speak unto you,
they are spirit, and they are life.” Jesus knew His Words weren’t empty; He
was conscious of His divinity and boldly declared it. In John 6:38 He said “for I came down from Heaven, not to do mine
own will, but the will of him that sent me.” What boldness and audacity! Everyone knew Him
as the son of Joseph the carpenter, yet He declared He came down from heaven.
Only a man who knew who He really was could speak this way. No wonder He had
absolute mastery over the circumstances of this world.

Again, in John 8:12, He said, “I am the light of the world: he that follows
me shall not work in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” Can you beat that? He didn’t come talking
about the light, but says, I am the light of the world.” No wonder the soldiers
that were sent to arrest Him one time, after hearing Him speak, concluded “No
man ever spoke like this man.” (John 7:46)

But did you
know Jesus also spoke about you and said “You are the light of the world?”
(Matthew 5:14). Therefore everywhere you go, you ought also to declare with
gusto, ‘I am the light of the world!” be conscious of who you are in Christ
Jesus, be bold to call yourself what God has called you.

Jesus gave
us an example to follow of how to live victoriously on the earth. His
consciousness of who He was controlled everything He said and did. You also can
live as successfully as He did by following this principle. But first you need
to have the Holy Spirit, for He’s the one who brings boldness into your spirit
by making the consciousness of who you are in Christ Jesus real to you.

CONFESSION

I have in me
the consciousness of a victor. I know who I am and I walk in the consciousness
of this reality. I’m the light of the world and the salt of the earth. I walk
in prosperity, peace, and divine health. Nothing can stop my progress for I
have in me the yeast of greatness! Greater is He that is in me than he that is
in the World! Amen!

God cannot disappoint you, His faithfulness is forever sure. Hope and Faithfulness

Hope links with the future. Moreover, there is a link between hope and God because He is the One who controls tomorrow. Anyone in charge of tomorrow is definitely able to uphold hope.

Revelation 1:8 says, “I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, The Almighty”.

Hope is linked with tomorrow and God is the One who holds tomorrow. Do not let any man deceive you: no man holds tomorrow except God. This is why James warns against boasting about tomorrow while acknowledging that we need God – the one in control of tomorrow – to enter into tomorrow of our dreams (James 4:13-16). Many who bragged about tomorrow never lived to see it.

Another way God is linked with hope is through His faithfulness. Deuteronomy 7:9 says, “Know therefore that the LORD thy God, He is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that loves Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations.”

God is extremely faithful. The quality of His faithfulness in keeping promises and agreements is unparalleled. There are some people around us who make simple promises that they can easily fulfil yet, they fail to fulfil them because they lack the discipline in faithfulness.

Putting all your hope in an unfaithful man can lead to great embarrassment and loss when the fellow suddenly disappoints you at a crucial time.

God cannot disappoint you! Numbers 23:19 says, “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? Or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?”

God doesn’t only keep covenants but He is the greatest covenant keeper as He can fulfil His promise to an individual or a family for up to a thousand generations!

What a wonderful God we serve!

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

AMAZING GRACE.

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound—

That saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind but now I see.

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed!

The Lord has promised good to me,

His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be

As long as life endures.

Through many dangers, toils and snares

I have already come;

‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,

And grace will lead me home.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

Bright shining as the sun,

We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

Than when we’d first begun. Amen!

No Reason To Fear Child Of God.

No Reason To Fear Child Of God.

“Then said Jesus unto them again, verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” John 10:7, 11

Throughout the Bible, particularly the New Testament, God used things that we can readily identify with to speak to us the deep mystery of the Kingdom. Jesus used the everyday things around to teach very deep truths that every believer ought to know. He knew that if you can just catch a glimpse of what He is saying, you will be more effective ministers of the Gospel.

Look at our text again; do you understand the full import of what Jesus was saying? If you truly understand our text for today, you will have no reason to fear anything in life. Let me break it down a little – The sheepfold is a place where the sheep are kept safe. There is an opening into this place through which the sheep is herded in. The good shepherd then sleeps right across that opening in the night. The implication is whenever danger comes the enemy had to first contend with the shepherd before entering the sheepfold. Now you can understand it better when Jesus says He is the door to the sheepfold and the good shepherd.

This means that the good shepherd guarantees the supply of all my needs and he, who is the door to the sheepfold, also guarantees my protection from any evil. Hallelujah! So I can say without any shadow of fear that nothing shall by any means hurt me. The same is true for you, if only you will believe. Beloved, you have no reason to fear.

1. Can you set up some rules for yourself and abide by them? …It’s called principle.

2. Can you stop yourself from doing something others are doing? …It’s called discipline.

3. Can you keep going even when it’s tough? …It’s called perseverance.

4. Can you choose peace over proving a point? …It’s called maturity.

5. Can you forgive even when it hurts? …It’s called strength.

6. Can you walk away from what doesn’t grow you? …It’s called wisdom.

7. Can you believe in yourself when no one else does? …It’s called confidence.

8. Can you show kindness without expecting anything? …It’s called character.

9. Can you stay focused when distractions surround you? …It’s called self-control.

10. Can you be humble in the face of success? …It’s called grace.

11. Can you be honest even when it’s not easy? …It’s called integrity.

12. Can you speak the truth in love? …It’s called courage.

Encouragement:

Greatness doesn’t come from what you do occasionally—it comes from what you commit to consistently. Your values, your habits, and your choices shape your future far more than your circumstances do. When you set standards for yourself and live by them, you become grounded, focused, and unstoppable. The world might sway, trends may change, but people with principles, discipline, and inner strength always stand tall. Choose to grow, even in silence. You don’t have to shout to make an impact—just live it….

Thank You Jesus,

Unlocking God’s Wisdom: The Key to Abundant Living

A&J DAILY: Experience the Fullness of God’s Goodness.

Proverbs 4:5,6,7 “Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.”
The wisdom of God is one of the most important principles that need to be in every Christian’s life. Solomon says in this piece of scripture that while man is busy with so many things, by far the most important is to acquire the wisdom of God. It will change your life and empower you to experiencing the fullness of God’s goodness.

Salvation is for all men

Salvation is for all men

That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, thou shall be saved (Romans 10:9)

Some people believe salvation is only for certain people; that God already numbered those that’ll be saved, and those reserved for eternal damnation; but that’s not truth. You might then ask, “So what did Jesus mean when He said, “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him…” (John 6:44). Doesn’t that mean the Father appoints some people to salvation, and separates some others unto destruction? No! Salvation is for all men. God’s desire is for ALL men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth.

In John 3:16, the Bible didn’t say, “For God so loved some men…” ; rather it says “For God so loved the world…..” ; the world of men, ALL men, including women, boys and girls. The Father’s love is for the whole world; the world of sinners. So when Jesus said “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him….” (John 6:44), the right question to ask is, “Now does God draw men unto Himself?”

The answer is in the 45^th verse of the same John 6 that says, “It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me” God draws men to Himself through His Word; through His message as encapsulated in the Gospel. When the Gospel is preached, those who hear, believe it, and endorse it by confessing the Lordship of Jesus Christ over their lives are drawn. So, the choice as to who receive salvation rests with every individual.

In Paul’s letter to Timothy, he said “…..God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:3-4). This is the very reason we herald the message of the Gospel. As you plan your vacation and visitation this Christmas time, have the Gospel in mind. Make it a memorable Christmas for those around you who are yet to receive salvation, letting them know it’s God’s desire for them to receive the best gift of all, this Christmas – Eternal Life!

The Bible says “How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?” (Romans 10:14). You’re that preacher to those in your world; to bring them the glorious news of Christ’s salvation.

Prayer

Thank You Dear Heavenly Father for the immense love You clearly demonstrated in sending Jesus to be the propitiation for my sins, thus making me a participator in the divine experience. I’m most grateful for this glorious privilege, in Jesus Christ’s Name! Amen!

Return To Higher Love By Pastor Peter David Ali

MEDITATE ON THIS 👇👇👇

“Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love” [REVELATION 2:4].

THANK GOD DEARLY BELOVED TO A GLORIOUS FRIDAY. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS TODAY ASKING YOU AND I, WHERE IS ONE’S FIRST LOVE? LET’S CROSS EXAMINED OUR WALK WITH HIM, WHERE ONE IS LACKING IN OUR FIRST LOVE, ASK HIM TO SUPPLY GRACE SO THAT ONE CAN BE RESTORED TO HIS OR HER FIRST LOVE TO HIM IN JESUS NAME.

Another lesson from JOB 14:7-12 is that leaving your first love always leads to a fall. In REVELATION 2:1-7, Jesus addressed the Ephesian church. He commended them for their good works, labours, patience, hatred for evil, ability to discern, etc. The only thing He held against them was leaving their first love.

He threatened to remove His Spirit if they did not return to their first love. They did not steal, fornicate, fight or lie. This is an area today believers have fallen without knowing. Some think that the only time they sin is when they commit the popular sins. Do you know you hurt God by loving Him less? You toy with His feelings.

Whenever you diminish in your love for God, you are making a statement that God is no more as important to you as He used to. Spend less time in God’s presence tells God that you have found something more important that needs your time. Whenever you depart from your first love, you provoke God to jealousy.

Recast your mind to the days you newly received Jesus Christ. Can you remember the vows, pledges, and dedication you made to Him? It was such a beautiful relationship. Oh! You loved the Lord. You loved Him so much that you were afraid to offend Him. Without being reminded, you sat down for hours studying His Word.

Sometimes, while others are sleeping at night, you are awake just fellowshipping with God, wanting to know Him better. Those days, you did not need anyone to compel you to preach. There was a fire within propelling you to declare the Gospel out of your love for Him.

You could not stand the thought of being someone go to hell. You were very regular at church meetings. Most times you were in church before the service, praying. Being in God’s presence was much a delight. It came from your heart. Obeying God on any issue was a thing of joy. You feared and respected your pastor and any man of God. You could give just anything to the Lord on request in Jesus name.

Friend, but how is it today? Where is the fire of love for God that once characterized your life? If it is no more there, then you have fallen. Today, where we used to run from are now where we are frequently seen. We have returned to our vomit. We have more important things to us.

Souls, even relations could die and go to hell, while we remain unperturbed. We have left our first love. The Lord is very unhappy with this and He wants you to return to where you fell from. Your first love is a might of fellowship which you fell from. Refusing to return there can bring terrible consequences. Beloved! Repent and return to first love!

Beloveth, identify evidences of your first love after conversion. Which of these are you still doing and which ones have you stopped? Prayerfully, by the help of the Holy Spirit return to them before it is too late in Jesus Christ amazing name Amen-Shalom.

Thank You Jesus,

THE VIRTUOUS WOMAN

Posted on September 12, 2025 by Prayer

THE VIRTUOUS WOMAN

What a girl to do?

Some people have the mistaken idea that a woman should be
very concerned about her looks, up on the latest fashions, and look out for
herself.

But that’s not what God describes in the Bible. The woman
described in proverbs 31 is an excellent wife and mother. She is able to
balance both career and family. It may surprise you that her appearance is
never ever mentioned! This is because the best kind of attractiveness is an
inward beauty. It comes from a woman’s character.

See this woman as an inspiration to be all you can be!

Who can find a
virtuous and capable wife? She is worth more than precious rubies. Her husband
can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life. She will not hinder him
but help him all her life.

She finds wool and
flax and busily spins it. She is like a merchant’s ship; she brings her food
from afar. She gets up before dawn to prepare breakfast for her household and
plan the day’s work for her servant girls. She goes out to inspect a field and
buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard.

She is energetic and
strong, a hard worker. She watches for bargains; her light burn late into the
night. Her hands are busy spinning thread, her fingers twisting fibre.

She extends a helping
hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy.

She has no fear for
winter for her household because all of them have warm clothes. She quilts her
own bedspreads. She dresses like royalty in gowns of finest cloth.

Her husband is well
known, for he sits in the council meeting with the other civic leaders.

She makes belted linen
garments and sashes to sell to the merchants.

She is clothed with
strength and dignity, and she laughs with no fear of the future. When she
speaks, her words are wise and kindness is the rules when she gives
instructions. She carefully watches all that goes on in her household and does
not have to bear the consequences of laziness.

Her children stand and
bless her. Her husband praises her. “There are many virtuous and capable women
in the world, but you surpass them all.

Charm is deceptive,
and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the LORD will be greatly
praised. Reward her for all she done.
Let her deeds publicly declare her praise. Proverbs 31 :10-30

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria
and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Thank You Jesus!
