Time of Refreshing
Memory Verse: - Ac 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
Bible Reading: - Matt 11: 25 – 30
Message
Sin is a burden to sinners; they have not rest within them and are under the fear of death and torment cum afflictions as a result of their sinfulness. Sicknesses, infirmities and diseases are the products of sins for the wages of sin is death [spiritual death – alienation or separation from God]. This was made obvious by Jesus in John 5:14:
Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
A sinner will be restless and full of condemnation for the guilt of evils he had done; hence God said there is no peace for the wicked. The master of a sinner is the devil because he that sinneth is of the devil; and devil is a thief of joy and peace and he has nothing good or joyful to offer his followers.
But Jesus is the prince of peace and he declared that:
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light [Matt 11:28 – 30].
Immediately you decide for Jesus and determine to do his will, a miracle of translation from satanic kingdom to that of God occurs in the spiritual realm; the atmosphere surrounding you will change from gloominess, condemnation and guilt to peaceful and joyful one. There will be a refreshing from God – an inner peace with full assurance that you are forgiven and brought near to be a partaker of God’s divine promises and common wealth of Israel.
Have you experience this, can you tell when and where it happens and what happened that day you have this encounter with God? If not Jesus is waiting with his hand stretched out to welcome you. Now is the accepted time, now is the time of salvation; it does not matter how deeply you might have been in your sins; there is more than enough grace to redeem you. Come now and tarry no more.
Confession of the Day
I am a redeemed of the Lord enjoying time of refreshing from the Lord.
Prayer Points

Lord of heaven and earth redeem my beloved ones from their sins; and draw them near unto you for blessings and protection; disappoint the counsel of the wicked ones concerning them and deliver them from the oppression of the devil; heal our land from injustice, corruption, shedding of innocent blood, ritualists, men slayers and men killers in Jesus name [Amen]

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 the

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

SUPPLYING OUR NEEDS

May 3 SUPPLYING OUR NEEDS But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. — PHILIPPIANS 4:19 It is God’s will that our needs be met. All of them! Philippians 4:19 includes all of your needs (all means all!), whether spiritual, physical, material, or financial. Believe that! Lest someone think that God is not concerned about our financial needs, this verse is set in a context which discusses material and financial affairs. Read it and you will see that the Philippians had taken up an offering of money and goods to send to other Christians. Paul was telling them, “Because you have given to others and have helped them, my God shall supply all your need.” So Paul was talking about material and financial matters. With what boldness, then, we can pray for finances to meet our obligations! Having all of our needs met is according to God’s will! Confession: When I pray concerning finances, I pray according to God’s Word — His will. Therefore, I am confid
