JESUS MARVELED
MEMORY VERSE: - Mk 6:6 And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
BIBLE READING: - Mark 6: 1 – 56
MESSAGE
Faith is an indispensable fruit of the spirit without which we cannot please God and nothing can as well be received from Him. Contrariwise, his power moves where faith is manifested. Remember God is Omnipresent and his power is present everywhere even where you are now; you can receive your needed miracle right there if you have faith in him.
Every where Jesus went during his earthly ministry, he preaches, saves, heals and delivers those that were oppressed of the devil for God was with him, except in his own country and that because of their unbelief. This faithlessness marveled the Lord.
If in the church you attend you don’t have faith in the word your pastor preaches, there cannot be miracle and you cannot be established, but believe the prophets of God and you shall be established and make your ways prosperous.
If faith is that important, what does it mean? And how does one get it? Faith is the substance (assurance) of things hope for, of things needed, of things required, of things one seeks God for; the evidence of things not seen (facts not revealed or appealed to the senses). It believes it is done even when nothing seems to have taken place. You do not see before you believe, you believe before you see. Hannah did not see Samuel before she believed, but went rejoicing and her countenance was no longer sad and thereafter Samuel and other children came; her faith opened her womb. Your faith will opens the door of you needed miracles for you in Jesus name.
Jesus marvels anytime he sees faithlessness in you upon all he had invested upon you in teachings and preaching, despite all the testimonies you have heard within and without the church. You need to develop your faith. And you can only develop what you have. Faith in the sacrificial work of Christ earns us salvation, so if you are truly save, you have faith; then you need to develop it by reading and hearing the word of God.
Ro 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Read the scriptures diligently and more than any other book; read the books on faith written by anointed men of God and exercise your faith against little matters like headache, malaria and the result obtained thereby will make your faith grow stronger. Jesus told the disciples and to you in particular – why is that you have no faith? Believe in God; believe in Jesus and in the ministry of the faithful men of God and you shall be prosperous.
Confession of the Day
My faith looks up to Thee thou man of Calvary and I am persuaded that I will not be denied.
Prayer Point
Lord help thou my unbelief; strengthened me to keep reading and hearing your word till faith rise up in me to receive for myself and to as well help others in Jesus name.
Baptize me in the Holy Ghost and give me the gift of faith in Jesus name.

STERLING LEADERSHIP

D.C.L.M. DAILY   MANNA WEDNESDAY 9TH MAY, 2018 STERLING LEADERSHIP TEXT: GENESIS 47:13-31 KEY VERSE: “And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we shall be Pharaoh’s servants” (GENESIS 47:25). “No one needs aspire to leadership in the work of God who is not willing to pay the price greater than his/her contemporaries and colleagues are willing to pay. The more effective the leader is, the higher the price to be paid”, said J Oswald. Joseph stands out as an enduring proof of what the grace of God can do for a perfect, upright and diligent child of God. The expected season of the lean kine finally came. Pharaoh was prepared only because of Joseph’s astuteness in the management of the trust conferred upon him. He started to alleviate the suffering of masses by exchanging corn for money, then corn for land. In an uncanny display of shrewdness, he ultimately transferred the national wealth and citizens to the crown and saved ...

WELL OF LIFE

March 3 WELL OF LIFE The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life . . . . — PROVERBS 10:11 Immediately after the birth of our son and daughter, I took those little ones into my hands and said, “Lord, I thank You for this child. Because I know the Bible, I realize it is my responsibility to train up this child in the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it. “I realize Your Word says to bring our children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and I’m going to do that. I know that children are taught in two ways: By precept and by example. So I’m going to live right in front of this child. I will set the right example. Then, too, I know that you can have what you say, so I say over this child that it will grow up strong physically, without sickness and without disease; it will be alert mentally; and stalwart spiritually.” Our children grew up without sickness and disease. I never prayed a prayer that they would be saved. I never prayed a prayer that they...

PARALYZED

April 15 PARALYZED Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. — HEBREWS 2:14 . . . That He might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, That is the Adversary. — HEBREWS 2:14 (Rotherham) Jesus put to naught the hosts of darkness! He paralyzed their deathdealing power! And when Jesus met John the Revelator on the Isle of Patmos, Jesus said, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Rev. 1:18). Keys represent authority. Jesus conquered Satan and stripped him of his authority. Jesus was the Master of all hell! But Jesus did not conquer Satan for Himself. He conquered him for us. It was as though you and I personally had met Satan and had conquered him, stripped him of his authority, and stood as master over him. Confession: Jesus is my Head. Jesus i...
