THE CREATION

By David Agbi

INTRODUCTION

In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. That was the first miracle of the bible. Because He made us, we should praise him. He has seen us since we were born and helped us. If God has helped us to survive this earth, we have no reason not to praise God.

HOW THE WORLD WAS MADE
FIRST HUMAN BEINGS

HOW THE WORLD WAS MADE

God made the world in 6 days. The first command He said was, “Let there be light” and there was light. Can you believe that! He just said that and it happened. God divided the light from the darkness and called the light “day” and called the darkness “night” [Gen.1:4-5]. Then the second day, he made a firmament which divided the waters from the waters. The third day, He told the waters to gather unto one place and let the dry land appear. He called the dry land earth and the gathered water seas. Next, He told the earth to bring forth grass and trees to bring forth fruit [Gen 1:11-12]. God did all these things from making the stars to making animals and these were all very big events.

FIRST HUMAN BEINGS

On the sixth day, that’s when God created human beings. He said “Let us make man in our own image” [Gen 1:26-27]. God also said that they will rule over the fish of the sea and the fowl of the air and all the animals on the earth. The first human being was made out of dust and called Adam. He was in the Garden of Eden. He saw that Adam was alone so he made him to sleep. God took a rib out of Adam and made a woman. God said she would be called woman, because she was taken out of man [Gen.2:21-24]. God named her Eve. God gave them the Garden of Eden. They could eat from any tree except the one in the middle. They got tempted by a serpent and sinned, so the earth was cursed and people had to work if they needed something.

CONCLUSION

Just because the earth was cursed doesn’t mean that you can’t go to heaven. If you believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, become a Christian and repent of your sins, you can go to heaven and be blessed. So give your heart to Jesus and repent of your sins and you will be saved.

Stir up the Gift of God That is in You

Stir up the Gift of God That is in You

When somebody has a gift and it is not used, it becomes lost. Instead of excellence, mediocrity sets in. In the parable of the talents, Jesus said the person with one gift that did not use it; the gift will be taken away and given to the person that used his gift to profit the Kingdom of God. God has endowed every person with one ability or the other. In the body of Christ, there are many gifts we can key ourselves into. When you have a coal fire except you fan it continuously, it quenches. God says do not quench the embers of fire of the Spirit. In 2 Tim. 1:5-7, the apsotel Paul addressing Timothy(Paul’s son in the faith) said :

5When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also. 6Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Also in Rom. 12:3-8, Paul addressing the Romans said,
3For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. 4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: 5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. 6Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; 7Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; 8Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

You either stir up the gift you have or it becomes extinguished. Many things can cause you to experience decline in your spiritual life. They include the love of the world, lust of the eyes and lust of the flesh. The Holy Spirit is grieved when we interrupt His move in our lives by our careless living. Paul speaking to the Thessalonians, said, 19Quench not the Spirit [1 Thess. 5:19].

Rather than quenching the spirit we should quench the work of Satan. How does somebody quench the Spirit or how do people reduce the embers of fire we have for God’s work? By ignoring Him, that is, ignoring His promptings; not paying attention to your spiritual life; not being led by the spirit; leading a carnal life; following after the works of the flesh; not living in love; and being slack spiritually. There are so many ways. What we should be quenching are the works of the enemy, that is, arrows of the enemy fired at us or targeted at other believers to instigate their downfall.

Eph. 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Prayer for Spiritual Empowerment
1. Every arrow of the wicked fired at my spirit, be extinguished.

GOOD AND BAD CONSCIENCE:

BY

DAVID AGBI

Text: Matt. 4:1-11                                                                    

INTRODUCTION

 There are 2 types of conscience in your body. Those are the good and bad conscience. The good conscience listens to God and the bad one listens to the devil. Imagine you are falling off a building. Something is holding you back and that is your good conscience. At the same time something is pushing you forward. That is your bad conscience. It is left there for you, but which one will you choose? It is a tough choice. Let this study give you some tips in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Rest For Your Soul and Body

Rest For Your Soul and Body

28Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28, KJV

28Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls. Matthew 11:28, Amplified

Other References: [Gen 2:2-3; Ex 20:8-11; Ex 23:12; Heb 4:1-11, 1 Peter 5:7]

We have a most revealing statement concerning the Sabbath. The Sabbath is a 7th-day completion cycle which God designed solely as a day of rest. No work was to be done and in Israel, neither animal were to be burdened. The Oxen, Donkeys and Servants were to be rested. The sole purpose was to be refreshed. Note that God detests all forms of laziness, which is a discussion for another day. He worked in 6 days creating the heaven and earth (Genesis chapter 1) and designed the human body to be refreshed by periods of rest. That is why after tedious months of work we must take out time for vacations. It is not only cultural but more importantly of immense spiritual benefit. In the case of the Sabbath, it is a day to be spent in communion with him and rest for your bodies, soul and spirit (Exodus 20:8-11). [Read more…] about Rest For Your Soul and Body

Strength and Courage [IV]

5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.  6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.  7Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest. [Joshua 1:5-7]

There is another form of inner strength we get as we diligently serve the LORD. It is called courage. Strength and courage are essential ingredients to make it in life. The two must be present and complement each other in an individual. If you are strong without much courage, you will see an opponent who may challenge and defeat you because of his courage.
