Memory verse:
“And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:”
- Deu. 28:1.
Redemption brought the believer into a kingdom of blessing Gal. 3:13-14. The blessing has the power to turn any man from penury to abundance, failure to success, a miserable life to outstanding life Acts 3:26; Pro. 10:22. But being a member of God’s kingdom is not automatic to access to the kingdom provisions, they are accessible only to those who will meet the conditions attached Lk. 6:40; Jms. 1:22-25. Many are ignorant of the conditions, so they keep struggling, disappointed and frustrated Ecc. 10:15. From scriptures, we understand that serving God is the key requirement to gain access to all of the kingdom provisions Psa. 34:10; Mat. 6:33.
Kingdom provisions that we access through serving God.
- We serve to access the blessing of the kingdom.
Every believer by new birth is redeemed from curses to enjoy God’s blessing Gal. 3:13-14. But there is a price to become entitled to the blessing in reality. In essence, we do not beg to be blessed; we serve our way into blessing Exo. 23:25-26. The more we commit to service, the more we access the blessing.
- We serve to enjoy promotion in this kingdom.
God’s design for every redeemed is continuous promotion until he enters into eternity Pro. 4:18. But we do not beg to be promoted, we serve our way into promotion Lk. 19:17-19. The rate at which we enjoy promotion is determined by how productive we are in service.
In essence, the demand of serving God and the interest of His kingdom is not to place a task on the believer. God is looking for who to enslave, rather He is looking for who to enthrone Lk. 22:25-30.
Jesus is Lord!

Often, the challenge with some people is not really the devil, powers of darkness, or any enemy, but themselves – their neglect of salient but vital factor of life (SOS 2:15; Jms. 3:3-5). Thanksgiving is one of such factors; when neglected, it tends to lead to self-destruction (Psa. 28:5; Lk. 16:12-21). Why Do We Give […]
One cannot understand the danger of a thing, and need encouragement again to drop it Isa. 1:18. This means that when we see anyone who is practicing sin, he is yet to understood the consequences.

Sanctification is possible; others in the past have lived in its reality, anyone can make it happen again Ecc. 1:9. Examples are Joseph (Gen. 39:1-9), Daniel (Dan. 1:6-8). Paul the apostle (1Ths. 2:10), What we need is to find out the path they walked in that made them achieve sanctified life (Jer. 6:16; Heb. 6:12). […]
Sanctification is a commandment of scripture to every believer 1Ths. 4:3,7. God will not demand from us what He has not endowed with grace or empowered us for Jdg. 6:14; 1Jn. 5:3. This means that sanctification is a choice not a gift Deu. 30:19; Mat. 5:6. The sanctified life will remain an impossibility without faith […]
