Executive Summary To meditate on the Word of God as it tells you to do in Joshua 1:8, what you basically do is say it
“Get with God” – A faith-building message by Pastor Paul Stead (transcribed). We’ll begin with Acts 10:38. It is the apostle Peter talking about Jesus.
The tenth commandment says "You shall not covet", and we hardly ever hear any preaching on this commandment, but God has not revoked it. In fact we see something in the New Testament that if we believed it without reservation, it would put the fear of God into us. Paul said:
"For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God."
(Ephesians 5:5)
In a world that is many times casual and uninterested in the things of God,
the Word of God can produce conviction of sin (Romans 7:7). The Holy
Spirit works through the knowledge of the law to show us how unrighteous we
are and how we deserve condemnation.
If you remember nothing else about this book, please remember this chapter. Although all that you have read until now is very exciting, what makes it all happen is contained in this chapter.
Our relationship with God is the key that unlocks everything that is His best for us into our lives. It is the key to every successful ministry. We read in Psalms 84:1-12:
How lovely is your dwelling-place, O Lord Almighty! My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
Partnership in the Gospel
Some relatively simple – but hard-hitting – questions are posed by Paul in Romans 10:14-15:
How, then, can they call on the one they have nol believed in? And how can they believe in tin- one of whom they have not heard? And how can (hey hear without someone preaching to them’.’ And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
The answer to each question is equally simple, “They cannot.” A person cannot hear and believe without someone proclaiming the gospel message to them.
Which Way Lord? – Chapter 7 – by Dr Chandrakumar
Decision Making
It is the final step we take in faith, responding to the light that God has given us through one or several of the foresaid principles. We read in Psalms 37:5, “Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass.”
During the time we are seeking God’s will on a matter, we should record the light the Lord gives us as we consider all the said principles. Arrange all the factors under three columns.
Over the last 25 years that I have been a Christian, I’ve met a lot of different Christian people with a lot of different thoughts and ideas. I’ve been in quite a few different types of churches, with different kinds of teaching emphases. Online also, you will encounter many very sincere and dedicated Christians who believe that anything to do with the “prosperity gospel” is ipso facto HERESY, and so its like “Run away!” I’m sure I’ve also met some real scammers and con-artists who were into “Name-it-and-claim-it” type doctrines.
