3 Keypoints From: Forget The Things Of The Past

It is unfruitful to dwell on the past. There is nothing to gain from living in regret about the past.

You must always give thanks. If you had died in the course of the year, you would not even be be here to reflect on the past. When God sees a grateful heart, He always visits that fellow with a blessing. (1 Kings 3:3-15).

God can still turn whatever you count as a loss into profit. He can make all things work together for your good. (Romans 8:28)

“Meanwhile, if you you have been living in sin, don't expect God to help you turn things around. Isaiah 3:11 Clarifies that it shall not be well with the wicked (anyone living in sin). However, in Isaiah 3:10 God said, *Say unto the righteous, it shall be well with him."”

Memorise: Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, (Philippians 3:13)

3 Keypoints From: Handling Criticisms

If you are making any progress in life, criticisms will definitely come.

Your attitude to criticism is what will determine if you will succeed or fail. (Proverbs 1:5-7)

Listen to them without getting defensive or aggressive. If you grumble and sulk for days because you were criticized, you need to speak to yourself so that you can last.

“Every criticism is an opportunity for you to become a better person. If you take it well, you will become better. The choice is yours.”

MEMORISE: Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. (Hebrews 12:11)

3 Keypoints From: Examine Yourself

Don't rely solely on what people say about you because they might not know you as well as you know yourself. (The thoughts of your heart or what you do behind closed doors.)

Don't judge yourself by your own standards, feelings or achievements; rather, judge yourself by God's standard; it is the one that Lord commends that is righteous. (2 Corinthians 10:18)

After weighing yourself according to God's word, surrender completely to Him and ask Him to help you to live right. (Isaiah 6:1-5) You cannot be righteous by your own power.

“Prayer Point: Father, please help me to live by Your standards at all times, in Jesus's name.”

Memorise: Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? (2 Corinthians 13:5)

3 Keypoints From: Redemption

While many unbelievers see the Christian lifestyle as slavery because of its restrictions, the truth is that Christians are the ones who are free.

Yes, you're carrying the yoke of Christ, but His yoke is far lighter than that of the devil, and His burden is way easier. (Matthew 11:28-30)

When a person becomes born again, the first thing he or she experiences is peace. A great burden is lifted off the fellow's shoulder -that he or she didn't realize was there before.

“Your prayer should be that the Almighty God should open their eyes as He opened yours and that they should come out of their prison, and step into the freedom that Jesus made available. Let the redeemed of the Lord proclaim their freedom with boldness and joy.”

Memorise: In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; (Ephesians 1:7)

5 Keypoints From: The Reason For His Birth 4

Everyone who is a believer has the Holy Spirit flowing in them, giving them power to heal the sick, raise the dead, and perform all manners of miracles. (John 7:38,14:12, Mark: 16:17)

When Jesus Christ died on the cross, the veil of the inner chamber in the temple was torn into two (Matthew 27:51). This means that the manifest presence of God was no longer the exclusive reserve of the high priest.

The measure of the Holy Spirit within believers will vary with how well they fulfil the will of God for their lives.

If you live holy and make a habit of spending quality time in the presence of God daily, He will keep increasing the measure of the Holy Spirit's expression in your life with evidences of signs and wonders.

The devil is afraid of believers using the power they have in Christ. He can only oppress those who are not exercising the power they have in Christ.

“The next time you find someone who is sick, lay hands on the person and pray for him or her to be healed.”

Memorise: But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. (Romans 8:11)

3 Keypoints From: The Reason For His Birth (3)

Before He was born, the Holy Spirit could only come upon certain individuals. However, after Jesus Christ came to the earth and ascended back into heaven, He sent the Holy Spirit to live inside every believer (John 14:16-17).

As the temple of God, it means that whatever cannot be found in God (like sickness, anger issues and other bad habit or weakness) should not be found in you.

You are an overcomer because the Sovereign God loves you (Romans 8:37) and has made His abode inside you ( 1 John 4:4).

“Never give in to fear; remember that the Almighty God Himself is dwelling inside of you, and since He can never lose a war, you will experience victory in all areas of your life at all times.”

MEMORISE: And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. (2 Corinthians 6:16)

3 Keypoints From: The Reason For His Birth (2)

It is easier for a sailor to sail a ship through a storm by taking directions from another sailor that has sailed through such storms before.

When you are feeling tempted, remember that Jesus has also gone through the same temptation. Approach the throne of grace boldly and tell Him that you need His help (Hebrews 4:16).

He is a worthy advocate for us with the Father, such that if we fall into sin, He is there to plead with the Father on our behalf and help us get back on our feet (1 John 2:1).

“Let Jesus teach you how to live above sin, and as He teaches you, make sure that you listen to Him and obey Him. You will surely be victorious.”

MEMORISE: Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. (Hebrews 2:17)

2 Keypoints From: The Reason For His Birth (1)

We are celebrating not just His birth, but the event that made it possible for us to become born again such that we can now call ourselves children of God.

The way to know if you are truly born of God is if you are living above sin. (1 John 3:9)

“As Christians, all we have to do is to truly believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and we will receive the power to live above sin. Philippians 2:13 says that He will work in us to do His perfect will, thereby putting an end to the sinful nature in us.”

MEMORISE: Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. (Isaiah 7:14)

3 Keypoints From: Be Holy

Lie detectors are able to detect lies because a person’s heart goes through stress whenever he or she tells a lie.

Many people do not live long because their heart is always stressed due to the atrocities they commit.

The way to live holy is to draw close to God. The more you behold His glory, the more you’re transformed into His image (2 Corinthians 3:18).

“If you have not yet given your life to Christ, you should do that immediately; this is the first step in living a holy life. If you are a Christian, you should study your Bible daily. (Psalm 119:11)”

MEMORISE: And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the Lord am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine. (Leviticus 20:26)

3 Keypoints From: The Lord Who Covers You

You may sometimes get into situations where you will look around you, and there seems to be no one to help you out. At such times, remember that God is by your side, and He is as close to you as your shadow. (Hebrews 13:5)

If God said that He will never leave nor forsake you, it means that He is always by your side. (Numbers 23:19)

He is there to protect you whenever you need protection (Isaiah 54:17), advise you when you're confused about decisions to make (Isaiah 40:21), and encourage you when you feel overwhelmed by the challenges of life (Isaiah 41:10).

Have you made the Lord our cover? Do you trust Him with your life completely?

Memorise: And the Lord, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed. (Deuteronomy 31:8)

2 Keypoints From: The Lord Who Provides For You

God has a provision for all your needs even before you ask Him (Genesis 22:14).

God reveals Himself as Jehovah El-Shaddai, the God who is more than enough. (Genesis 17:1)

“Never worry about your needs. Put your total trust in God, and He will show Himself as Jehovah Jireh and Jehovah El-Shaddai in your life.”

I pray that Jehovah El-Shaddai will be your source, in Jesus’ name.

MEMORISE: But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)
