The Importance of God's Word

February 15
My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those
that find them, and health to all their flesh.—PROVERBS 4:20–22
The Importance of God’s Word
Knowing the written Word of God for yourself is very important. I’ve had people attend my meetings who were there
every single service, but they didn’t bring their Bibles. Now I didn’t tell them, but I knew that if I could get them to bring
their Bible one time so they could see for themselves what God says, they would receive their healing.
I remember one fellow in particular. He had been in twenty- one services, yet still failed to receive his healing. I said to him,
“Bring your Bible.” He responded, “Well, the only time I take my Bible to church
with me is on Sunday morning.”
I said, “Bring it with you.” I knew he wouldn’t accept what I was saying if I just told him, because he thought certain
scriptures read a certain way. And they didn’t read the way he thought.
One night he brought his Bible and followed me in reading the scriptures. Before I finished my lesson, he jumped up and said, “I just can’t wait. I’ll receive right now.” And he received his healing!
Someone might say, “What if you couldn’t have gotten him to bring his Bible?” He wouldn’t have received. The Bible is God’s
Holy Book. The Bible is God speaking to us. Do you want God to speak to you? The Bible is God speaking to you.
Confession:
The Bible is God speaking to me. I attend to God’s Word by reading and studying my Bible. I keep His Word before my eyes,
and I incline my ears unto it.

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
