KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 8:6 KJV” And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.”

The SCRIPTURE above speaks of a Roman centurion whose servant was paralysed. He called on Jesus to come and heal his servant. The account of Luke reveals certain aspect of the story, that Matthew did not mention. In Luke’s account the centurion had built a synagogue for the Jews. (Luke 7:1-11) It was the Jewish leaders who he consulted to call on the master to attend to him. When the Lord heard about the man’s generosity and sacrifice for the people of God, He said He would come and heal his servant. The Lord had remarked that the first part of His earthly ministry was to the lost sheep of Israel. Mat 15:24 KJV” But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Why didn’t the Lord refuse to go to this Roman Centurion? The centurion’s love for the Jews, expressed by his great sacrifice he made, in building the synagogue for the people of God. In the supernatural realm, sacrifice remains one of the fastest protocols to access God’s audience.

In 2 kings 3 :3&4, the Bible said king Solomon loved the Lord. He demonstrated this love by sacrificing one thousand burnt offerings to the Lord. The Bible said God came to King Solomon in a night dream and asked Solomon to name   whatever he would want God to do for him. This is like God signing a blank cheque for a person to write any amount on it. Throughout the scriptures sacrifices of various persons have always attracted God’s favourable response. In a figurative sense Jesus’ own words meant, he should not have accepted to go to the Roman Centurion but, because of the principle of sacrifice He accepted to go and heal his dying servant

Dear child of God, what kind of service are you rendering to the Lord. Is it an ordinary service or a sacrificial one? The story of Cain and his brother Abel explains this principle quite vividly. (Genesis 4:3-7) Cain brought an ordinary offering unto the Lord while Abel chose the first and the best of his flock. The scriptures said God had respect unto Abel’s sacrifice, but rejected Cain ‘s. The principle underlying this response from God, is actually a response to one’ s love for Him. The greatest commandment is to love the Lord with everything of your being. It is not just a desire for favour, but a sincere love for God that moves you to make grave sacrifices to the furtherance of his Kingdom. Please note that you can give sacrificially without love, but you can’t love without giving sacrificially

CONFESSION

I love the Lord with all my heart, my soul and my strength. All that I have is His. I therefore give sacrificially to Him, whenever He ask me. He likewise attends to me whenever I need Him.

KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 8:3 KJV “And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou made clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.”

(Please read Matt 8:1-4)

In the above story a leper approached the Lord Jesus and requested healing. In his request he stated that if Jesus was willing, he could make him whole. The Lord quickly corrected him and said, I am willing, be thou made clean. He was healed instantly. This is a very important lesson for all of us. Many people are still in doubt whether it is the will of God to heal them of their ailments. Jesus Christ is the revelation of the will of God. He did what the father would have done.

John 5:30 KJV “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” The Lord Jesus always did the will of the Father.

The Lord Jesus consistently proved that he was never willing to let those who came to him for healing, go back without healing them. Please read Matt 12:10-13. In this passage, the Pharisees came to Jesus and asked should he heal on the sabbath day.? The Lord answered that, which of them would not save his sheep that falls into a pit on the sabbath day? He then asked, is not a man more important than a sheep? He went ahead and healed him. A similar event occurred in Luke 13:13-18, about a woman who had been bound by a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years.  After healing her, they complained that, those who are sick should not come for healing on the sabbath day. The following is the Lord’s remarks Luke 13:15 KJV The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering? He then added that, this is a daughter of Abraham, who Satan has bound for eighteen years ought not her to be healed on the sabbath day? Jesus demonstrated his hatred for sicknesses and subsequently his willingness to heal those who are sick.

There were instances that some individuals did not announce their presence and request for healing, yet they received their healing. (Mark 5:25-34) The healing power of God is always available, and anyone who would reach out in faith would be made whole. The only condition is for you to trust the word with all your heart. In Mark 9, the man who brought his son to the disciples to heal him, said to Jesus, after His disciples failed, if you can, you can heal my son. The Lord remarked in Mark 9:23, KJV” Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth”. Your healing has been provided and lying within the reach of your faith. Stop waiting for something to happen, go to his word and listen to what He says. Isaiah 53:1 KJV” Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed”? The arm of God is the power of God which is always revealed to the one who believes His report.

CONFESSION

Thank you, Father, for your healing grace. Thanks for our Lord Jesus who took away all my sicknesses and diseases in His own body. I believe His report. Thank you, Lord, I receive my healing today in the name of my Lord Jesus.

The strength and ability of any structure to withstand adverse conditions, depends on its foundation. Problems, trouble will come to all. Job 14:1 KJV” Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.” If this is the general experiences of men then how much should we be prepared for life.? Our passage of study (Matt 7:24-27) shows us that by virtue of our response to the teaching of Jesus, one can either be tough to overcome the challenges of life, or be overpowered by the difficulties that may arise. The Lord says those who hear His word and do it are like the man who builds his house on a rock. The problems of life, may beat on it yet it keeps standing strongly.

The Lord also said there is another type of foundation that is built on the sand. These are those who hear the word and refuse to do what the word says. The challenges of life come against him and his whole life is shattered. There are some people who lose their faith outright because of challenges of life. Life has become very miserable to many because they have no foundation. Psalms 11:3 KJV” If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? “YOUR proper foundation is doing what the word says. If you fail to do what God’s word says you have no foundation, and as a result failure and defeat are inevitable for you. There are a whole lot of people who have passed through the fires and waters of life, yet their faith remains as strong as ever. Their joy remains unshaken, and are simply unconquerable. These ones are those who took pains to act on God’s word.

LIFE should not lash at you. Life is not supposed to be mysterious to you. The tools for having a successful victorious life is the word of God. 2Timothy 3:16 KJV “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” The following verse says, the word was given so that the man of God, or child of God would be perfect thoroughly furnished unto every good work. It is knowing the word and doing it that makes you blessed. Dear brother or sister, the solution to every challenge in life is doing what the word says about that particular thing. (James 1:24)

CONFESSION

I have a sure foundation, because I am a doer of the word. Life is never mysterious to me. As a doer of the word, I have the ability, to go through every wall of challenge and every barrier of limitation. I conquer all in Jesus’ name.

KEY SCRIPTURE: Mat 7:22 ISV” Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, we prophesied in your name, drove out demons in your name, and performed many miracles in your name, didn’t we?’”

The Lord said in our key scripture that on the day of judgment some who would be rejected would say, Lord we cast out devils in your name, we healed the sick in your name. The Lord said He would say to such people that I never knew you, you workers of iniquity, get away from me. Why would miracle workers be rejected? It is one thing being used by the Spirit of God to work miracles, and it is another living in submission to the word of God. Working miracles does not mean God approves of the lifestyle of that individual. There are some individuals who function with contrary spirits to perform miracles. In Acts 16:16-18, apostle Paul and Silas were met by a girl who said these are the true servants of God who tell you the truth. The spirit was telling the truth but, it was a contrary spirit. There are such men and women who do miraculous feats, but not by the spirit of God. Their fruits are the main ways you can know, or by discernments

In Numbers 20:8-12, there was a need of water by the Israelites and God told Moses to speak to the rock to give out water. Moses out of anger hit the rock twice. Water gushed out in abundance, yet God was not pleased. Why did the water flow? It gushed out to satisfy the thirst of the people. Moses could not get to the promised land because of it. There was a miracle yet God was not pleased with Him. This event exactly describes the many, the Bible says they would say to the Lord, we did that miracle in your name. God works miracles on many occasions because of the cry of His children. The obedience of the man to the word of God is that which makes him acceptable with God or rejected by Him

HOW come that God would say He does not know these miracle workers. Their lives are far from what the Bible calls living   in submission to God and His word. Dear child of God do not be carried away with the supernatural occurrences but your personal relationship to the Lord.

Thank you, heavenly Father, for your love for me. My life is focused on living to please the Lord. God works miracles through me, yet it is all to His glory.

KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 7:21 KJV “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”

God is not interested in mouth worshipers only, but rather doers of the word of God. James 1:22 KJV “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” Those who hear the word and do not do it are deceiving themselves. There is a day of reckoning, or day of judgment and rewards.  Once, the Lord was teaching a gathering, and His mother and brothers came around looking for Him. He said the following to His audience, Mark 3:35 KJV” For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.” If a man gives Him lip worship and does not do what the word says he is not his brother, sister or relation of any kind. Dear reader, can Jesus call you His brother or sister?

These days in Ghana, the level of Christian activities is so much. We find preaching on the airwaves, preaching by the street corners and Christian music being aired from sun to dust. Many people have assumed they are followers of Christ because they listen to these programs, yet the level of crime, and corruption is rather alarming. It is at times shocking to hear of the practices of some of the groups in the name of worshiping Jesus. A visit to our government institutions and you will find a lot of church going people in these places, yet the level of corruption is rather alarming. One cannot pick His cheque for the payment of a contract executed without giving out some money(bribe) to these officials. In most of the cases if the money(bribe) does not come first, that pay cheque would also not be signed. According to the Lord Jesus, if you are living this way, can you call yourself as a brother, sister or a relation of Jesus?

HOW does one caught in these quagmire or any other erroneous living free himself? You must first accept that your ways are not pleasing to the Lord. Ask the Lord for His forgiveness. Then repent of that way of living. If you choose to do the word, you become a doer of the word. Everyone of us must be very sincere with ourselves and consider if there are any actions or ways that we have to repent from. Do not deceive yourself only doers of the word would be acceptable before the Lord on that final day of judgment. Take action now.

CONFESSION

Dear Heavenly Father I submit my life to the authority of your word and act in accordance with what your word says. I refuse to pay lip service and rather a doer of the word. Thank you, Lord.

KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 7:15 KJV, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”

One sign that shall characterize the end of time, is the prevalence of false prophets. Who is a false prophet? A false prophet is one who says what God has not said. Well, this is not the only criterion for one being false, the Bible reveals certain more qualities that would make one a false prophet. The Lord said a false prophet is known by the fruit he bears. His actions are at variant with the word of God. The fundamental fact about e real false prophets is that he does not have any relationship with Jesus. Mat 7:18 KJV” A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.” The Lord has said it right, a bad man cannot produce good fruits. The main issue is not about a mistake he made when he prophesied but whether Jesus is indeed Lord of his life.88

The main issue about a man who has not really got any relationship with Jesus, is his priorities about life. The focus about such a man is not about souls, it is not about bringing people into heaven, but his desire is how well men think of him. He thinks more about the number of cars he should have. Phi 3:18 KJV” (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:  Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)” These ministers mind earthly things. A minister who cannot forgive is opening a door for demons to easily enter his life. A false minister will use the pulpit to settle scores with people he or she thinks he has a problem with.

There are some false prophets who   there seem to be nothing wrong with them. The word is, there seem to be nothing wrong, yet Jesus said if the person is false, it will be shown in the fruits he bears. The real error seen in such people is about their love for Jesus. Love for Jesus means putting Him first. A false prophet will definitely project other things other the Lord Jesus and His word.

Dear child of God these teachings are supposed to shield you against falsehood. Don’t focus your attention on finding faults where there is no fault. If there is something wrong about a man of God, which is not visible to the natural eye the Holy Spirit would expose it if it is that necessary, but don’t go around looking for faults if there is non

KEY SCRIPTURE Mat 7:13 ISV “Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate is wide and the road is spacious that leads to destruction, and many people are entering by it“.

The Lord Jesus kept teaching His audience about so many things. He now gets to talk about the way that leads to life as against the one that leads to death. He said the following about the path to death or eternal destruction

1 It is a way

2.It is wide and spacious

3.Many are those that go on that road.

The following are some explanations   about the way to destruction.  A way or path means where people walk through. It also refers to how they walk on that path. Pro 14:12 ISV “There is a pathway that seems right to a man, but in the end it’s a road to death.”

The second point about this way is that it is broad and very comfortable to tread on. . Comfort deals with that which satisfies the flesh. The acts of the flesh are mainly, lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life. (1 John 2:15-17).

The last description of the way onto destruction is that many people are traveling that way. When the popular choice is abortion, homosexuality and lesbianism, and all the sex perversions, then the world is on a destruction course.

The path to life is narrow and only a few goes on it. It is not comfortable, because the flesh can’t do what it pleases. Most people would not choose sacrifice and fleshly restrain.

 Let’s note that living in pleasure does not mean enjoying life. Enjoyment is not necessarily what you do, but the inner satisfaction that flows from within. It is only the indwelling Holy Spirit in the life of a man that can give true enjoyment of life. Dear one, who is in love with all the satisfactions of the flesh, do you have real inner satisfaction in life? If you don’t have that true heart satisfaction or peace that passes human understanding, then you are definitely on the broad pleasurable road, that leads to eternal destruction.

Now that you a alive, you can switch from that Broadway of false satisfaction, to the narrow way of true satisfaction. No one can pray for you to be accepted by the father after your death.

CONFESSION

My heavenly Father, I choose the path of life. Although it is narrow, and only a few takes to it, I choose this path. I receive the true peace that comes from you alone. Thank you, Lord. Jesus, I acknowledge you as the Lord of my life. Amen

KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 7:9 KJV” Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?”

IF men will not give a stone to their children when they ask for bread, how will God give you a devil when you ask Him for the Holy Spirit. These teachings reveal the following truths about God.

1 God responses positively to our requests

2 God does not give us something different from what we want or ask.

3. God has power to protect you from devils taking advantage of you.

We must be very specific in what we want from the Lord, knowing that God will give us exactly what we want or even something better. Ephesians 3:20 KJV” Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”. Our Father has revealed His heart towards us. If a request has delayed, don’t claim the father does not want you to have. Remember the father and mother of John the Baptist God visited them at a rather late age.

Maintain a joyful and gracious heart towards the Lord always, knowing that all things are working for your good. Some brethren or sisters hold a grudge against God, because a request they made to God has not been granted. God our Father is not the one who does not want to bless you with the answer, it is the devil. In the case of Zachariah and Elizabeth, the delay was to make their son become a for runner of Jesus. It was the timing of God. Secondly, there are certain instances that the Lord keeps certain answers from you so that you as a son may show your diligence in looking for the solution from Him. Pro 25:2 KJV “It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.” This verse states that, it is the glory of God to conceal or hide a thing, but it is the honour of His children who are described as kings to search for the answer. Always maintain a joyful heart in life. That is what would unlock every hidden agenda of the devil and would also keep you on the side of God.

In all these never stop praying. It may be an orchestration of demonic entities resisting your answer. Your consistent prayers would surely breakthrough and result in the answer. Your prayers on the earth stirs up responses from heaven. Whatsoever we bind on earth, heaven also responses and acts on it. If you give up praying there will be no corresponding response from heaven. (Matt 18:18-21).

CONFESSION

Thank you, heavenly Father, for working out everything for my good. I maintain a positive or joyful heart always. I do not cease praying. God my father blesses me with the answer.

And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”

Matthew 18:18 KJV” Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 7:7″ KJV “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:”

Asking and receiving from God, is one of the miracles of Christianity. It is an evidence of the existence of God. Psalms 34:15 KJV “The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry”. The righteous are simply those who believe the Lord. God’s eyes are on them and He answers their cry or prayers. Some Christians claim, they have not been receiving answers to their prayers. This is rather unfortunate. The Bible gives us the basic criterion to have God’s attention. Heb 11:6 KJV “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Anyone who fulfills the condition in Heb 11:6 will surely have God’s response.

Our scripture of consideration instructs us to take three actions which God will respond positively to everyone of them. These actions are Ask, Seek, Knock. This reveals that there are things that we ask, those that we seek and certain situations that demands knocking. Asking connotes something referring to our basic needs. He says when we ask the father, He would give it to us. Ask expecting an answer from our heavenly Father. Mark 11:24, says when we pray, we must believe that God has heard and released   the answer, and so we acknowledge that, we have our answer. Approaching our requests this way would certainly deliver the answer to us.

The next action is the word seek. Unfortunately, this is one aspect of prayer that most Christians hardly employ. This is praying to receive answers for certain hidden matters or problems. When King Nebuchadnezzar demanded for the wise men to tell him the dream, he ‘s had, and give him the interpretation, of it, Daniel used the prayer of seeking. There are so many matters that we have no clues about, and our Father expects us to seek answers by asking for His revelation of the answers. The Lord says, we will find answers to these difficult situations if we seek for His answers. We may also seek for the Lord Himself. This is, when we desire an encounter with him. Deut 4:29

The third and last of the actions the Lord Jesus calls on us to employ in prayer is to knock. Knocking presents a sterner posture. It involves pressing your way through, till you have the answer. Elijah on the mountain of Camel kept knocking in prayer till the answer came.(1 Kings 18:41-46) Many of us give up too early. Elijah kept praying and was receiving an update about the coming of the rain.

These three ways of prayer asking, seeking and knocking touches on the range of needs that we have to deal with. God will answer if we would do our part.

CONFESSION

When I ask, seek and knock in prayer God my father answers me. It is the desire of God to hear the cry of all His children who trust him.

Deut. 4:29 KJV” But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.”

KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 7:6 KJV” Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.”

The Lord Jesus stated clearly certain characters who are not qualified for holy things. He said holy things should not be given to dogs or swine. This is a figurative statement referring to humans with character traits as these creatures. The scriptures give the character of a dog and swine in the following verse. 2 Peter 2:22 KJV” But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, the dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire”. The dog vomits and then goes back for it. The pig after being washed clean, runs back into the muddy filth to smear itself with it.  The key scripture could also be interpreted as, God will also not give holy things to people with these traits.

Now what are some examples of Holy things A Holy thing is anything given by the Holy Spirit. These may include the anointing, gifts of the Holy Spirit, divine wisdom and many more. These are holy things that come from God. What are the holy things that God allows men to give? This include giving leadership roles to certain individuals. Serving in various capacities in the house of God. It also includes giving certain vital confidential matters to such people. What character traits are similar to those of dogs or swine? These people keep going back into their sinful ways after repenting from them. They have no regard for holy things. They cannot be trusted with any good thing. This would mean getting to know an individual very well before appointing him or her into a significant office in the house of God. What kind of individual are you? Are you qualified to receive holy and precious gifts? Do you run away from sin and wrong ways, and never go back into them?

HOLINESS of life is a strong criterion to receive blessed things. 2 Timothy 2:21 KJV” If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.” Please learn from the preceding verse, anyone who purges himself or herself from wrong sinful ways would be counted worthy to be graced with holy things. Note that when God wanted a mother for His son Jesus, He chose a virgin. She had SEPERATED herself from all sinful ways. Take counsel from the following verse. 2 Corinthians 7:1 KJV “Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”

There is nothing on this earth that could be compared to any of the Holy things God could adorn us with. Evangelist Francis Akwasi Amoako of blessed memory, was a swindler, pickpocket and a very notorious criminal, but when he turned to the Lord, forsaking all the vile ways, God made him a nation reformer.

CONFESSION

Thank you, heavenly Father, for your love. I do not give your blessed things to those who have no recognition for holiness and holy things. I also set my face for holy ways and God also blesses me with supernatural blessings.
