TOPIC: WALKING IN THE TRUTH

TEXT: REVELATION 10:8-11

8.  Then the voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again and said, "Go, take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the earth."

9.  So I went to the angel and said to him, "Give me the little book." And he said to me, "Take and eat it; and it will make your stomach bitter, but it will be as sweet as honey in your mouth."

10.  Then I took the little book out of the angel's hand and ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth. But when I had eaten it, my stomach became bitter.

11.  And he said to me, "You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, tongues, and kings."


MESSAGE:

The times in which we live now, popularly referred to by many a 'end-times or the last days', are periods in which managing the truth is a virtue that is fast becoming scarce, even in the Church which is expected to be the pillar and foundation of truth (1 Tim. 3:15).In these last days, one of the characteristics of the people as prophesied is the inability to endure sound teachings from the word of God (truth) (2 Tim. 4:3).The scroll fully represents the truth which is commonly available to us as the word of God (Jn.17:17).

Truth is therefore priceless, revealed, and dependable and must be spread to all lands and seas and it must however be obeyed. We may like the truth but the greatest challenge is our readiness to accept and retain it, irrespective of how bitter it may be to us (v.10). The evils destroying us today can be well checked if we make up our mind to walk in the truth (3 Jn. v4). How have you lived for these preceding nine months of the year 2021? Have you lived in the truth?


PRAYER: 

Dear Lord, open my eyes to see the wonderful truth of Your Word and walk in it. Amen.

EXCERPTS FROM: 24/7 WARFARE PRAYERS AND SUPERNATURAL BREAKTHROUGH MANUAL

INTRODUCTION Right from childhood, the number “SEVEN” has always been an intrigue, an interesting puzzle, a fascination, and a great phenomenon to me. I was actually born on the seventh day of the month; perhaps this was one of the reasons why something leaps inside of me whenever I see the number. But as I grew up in the Christian faith I began to see a regular reference to it the scriptures. I was kind of saying, whoa! Holy bliss! Seven occurs 257 times, or 7 × 41 Seventh, the fractional part occurs 98 times or 7× 14 Seven –fold occurs 7 times. Seventy occurs 56 times or 7× 8 “Seventy” in combination with other numbers occurs 35 times or 7× 5. God is pleased to stamp the number “Seven” with the seal of perfection and completeness. God never down played the importance of the number, because it was the number of God. It is a carrier of God’s mysteries. It pleased God that, the Seventh man from Adam – Enoch sh...
