WORD DIARY: TUESDAY MAY 29, 2018

Matthew 13:57 And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "Only in his hometown and in his own house is a prophet without honor."

Honor the Lord! #PastorBasil

Matthew 13:58 And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.

Lord, help our unbelief! #PastorBasil
 
The Bible
Matthew 14:6-7 On Herod's birthday the daughter of Herodias danced for them and pleased Herod so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked.

An oath ends strife! #PastorBasil

Mark 1:25-26 "Be quiet!" said Jesus sternly. "Come out of him!" The evil spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.

Let us pray: Every evil spirit afflicting our destiny be bound in Jesus name #PastorBasil

Sunday 27 May 2018

WORD DIARY: SUNDAY MAY 27, 2018

Matthew 13:51 "Have you understood all these things?" Jesus asked. "Yes," they replied.

Grace for divine understanding! #PastorBasil

Matthew 13:54 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?" they asked.

Divine wisdom and power! #PastorBasil
 
The Bible
Matthew 13:55-56 "Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother's name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? Aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?"

Wonders! #PastorBasil

Mark 1:23-24 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an evil spirit cried out, "What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are — the Holy One of God!"

Let us pray: O Lord arise, and destroy powers assigned against our destiny in Jesus name #PastorBasil

Postscript 

Ecclesiastes 7:29 This only have I found: God made mankind upright, but men have gone in search of many schemes.

God, more than earthly manufacturers, created a perfect mankind; and like every manufacturer, He gave the Bible as the manual. As we brush our teeth and eat every day, so much do we need to look into that manual for daily living and thereby prevent a malfunction inherent in seeking our many devices.

These verses and the accompanying nuggets are meant to start you out every day. But you need a personal relationship with God and the Lord Jesus Christ. It will help to contact a bible believing church   near you.

WORD DIARY: SUNDAY MAY 20, 2018

Matthew 13:40-41"As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil.
 
Grace to overcome sin! #PastorBasil

Matthew 13:42-43 They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

Shine in the Kingdom! #PastorBasil
 
The Bible
Matthew 13:44 "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.

Priceless treasure! #PastorBasil

Mark 1:21-22 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law.

Let us pray: Sweet Holy Spirit, empower us in Jesus name #PastorBasil

Saturday 19 May 2018

WORD DIARY: SATURDAY MAY 19, 2018

Matthew 13:34-35 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world." 

Understanding divine secrets! #PastorBasil
 
The Bible
Matthew 13:36 Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field."

Hunger for knowledge! #PastorBasil

Matthew 13:37-40 He answered, "The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.

Divine interpretation! #PastorBasil

Mark 1:19-20 When he had gone a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John in a boat, preparing their nets. Without delay he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.

Let us pray: Lord, may we not forsake our calling in Jesus name #PastorBasil

WORD DIARY: FRIDAY MAY 18, 2018

Matthew 13:29-30 "'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.'" 
 
Heaven’s candidate! #PastorBasil

Matthew 13:31-32 He told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches."

Grace to grow as the mustard seed! #PastorBasil
 
The Bible
Matthew 13:33 He told them still another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into a large amount of flour until it worked all through the dough."

Touching destinies! #PastorBasil

Mark 1:16-18 As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."  At once they left their nets and followed him.

Let us pray: O Lord, give us the grace to fulfil our calling in Jesus name #PastorBasil
