God is no Respecter of Persons
Memory Verse: - Ex 30:15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the Lord, to make an atonement for your souls.
Bible Reading: - Ex 30: 1 – 38
Message
In today’s text, God commanded Moses to charge children of Israel to pay half a shekel to make an atonement for their souls anytime they are counted to avoid plague among them. God is the maker of
the rich and poor, white and black, Jews and gentiles, learned and barbarians, man and woman, young and old. He treats them all alike when it comes to the salvation of their souls which is precious in his sight.  Pr 22:2 The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all.
The soul of the rich and poor are alike precious to God and the same faith in Christ and repentance from all sins must be exercised by both of them before forgiveness can be obtained from God. God is not a respecter of any man; whosoever you are, if you have in God you will please him for it will be counted unto you for righteousness.
If a Jew repents, confesses, and forsakes all his sins coupled with accepting Christ as his personal Lord and saviour, he will as well be saved like gentile that does the same.
Cornelius and his household were gentile by birth and were alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, but the moment he exercised faith in the atoning work of Christ together with his household; God did not only saved them, he poured his spirit upon them just as he did for the disciples of Christ.
God had sent Christ to the whole world and not to the white or Jews alone and that whosoever believes in him shall not perish, but shall through him be saved and have everlasting life.
Jn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
He loved the world and not some segment of the world and gave us his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him will have everlasting life.
In other offerings men are to give according to their ability, but this which was the ransom of their souls, must be alike for all, for the rich has more need of Christ as the poor, and the poor are as welcome to him as the rich. Therefore, there is no salvation without genuine faith in the sacrificial work of Christ on the cross.
Confession of the Day
God of no variableness is my God through faith in Christ Jesus; I am a joint – heir with Christ Jesus.
Prayer Points

God of all flesh, I come to you today, hear me, save me and I shall be saved, heal me and I shall be healed for thou art my praise.

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...
