(KJV.) ACTS 8:18-22
(18) And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles hands the Holy Ghost was given he offered them money.
(19) Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
(20) But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
(21) Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
(22) Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, it perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
THE HEART ISSUE
Brethren, at times, we seek the face of the Lord with lengthy prayers; however, Jesus said not pray like we have no faith; for, he knows our heart desires before we pray them; but, there are several reasons why our prayers are not answered speedily, one of those reasons may be because there are unresolved issues in our hearts; and if our hearts are still in darkness the Lord cannot not hear our prayers without repentance, forgiveness and redemption from darkness into the light; therefore, when we approach the throne of grace to seek goodness and mercies of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, let us approach him with pureness and humbleness of hearts to receive gifts of grace freely and life everlasting.
Case in point, in the above text, Simon the Sorcerer, means Simon the wizard or warlock; who had bewitched people with negative powers and they believed in him as a great man of God, when he saw the disciples baptizing people, he also went to get baptized; but he had a wrong motive behind his baptism, he thought by his baptism alone, (i) he will be able to receive more powers from the Holy Ghost to continue to do the same or even much more miracles than what the disciples were doing at the time; evil motive of envy and jealousy; let us rebuke those infiltration spirits; (ii) he offered the disciples money and said, give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost: evil thought of greediness and fame; let us resist all temptations of fleshly desires.
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT:
Points to ponder, however, Peter said unto him, (a) Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God can be purchased with money; Simon the Sorcerer was envious of the disciples for the resurrection powers of the Holy Spirit was in action, doing miracles through them, and have thought that his fame as a Sorcerer was going down the drain and if he could also do the same miracles, then he will be able to maintain his status but Peter rebuked him that he had no business with whatever was going on, for he thought he could buy the gift of God with money; today what favors are we trying to seek among men but are not seeking the face of Jesus Christ for them? (b) Peter said unto him, Thou hast no portion in this matter, for thy heart is not right in the sight of God; whaoo! the heart issue, today, let us double check our hearts to see if there are things in them that may hinder us from receiving blessings from the Lord; (c) if we possess any ungodly behaviors, let us repent of all our wrong doings and purge our hearts from all filthiness of the flesh and ask the resurrection powers of the Holy Spirit to take control and reign supreme in our hearts so we may be able to receive gifts from Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Fruits of thought, we learn in today's text that gifts of God can not be purchased with money or with schemes or self efforts; therefore, let us always seek the Lord in spirits to know his ways and to follow after our own callings and gifts of the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit; for we can not all be Evangelists, Prophets or miracle workers but we all have gifts hidden in our spirits that are yet to be discovered, so let us pray, read the scriptures daily and ask the Lord to manifest those gifts in our lives forevermore.
CONCLUSION:
Brethren, there are so many seers and sorcerers among this perverse generation, as believers, if we need to hear the voice of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior on issues of our lives, let us seek his face with prayers and supplications; he will surely answer our prayers; if we should hear his voice from his chosen people, let us be careful whose voices we listen to, for there are sorcerers all over planet earth who use demonic spirits to imitate powers of the Holy Spirits; therefore, let us be careful and seek our help from resurrection powers of the Holy Spirits, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior for he has answers to life issues; not only that, but he also forgives sins and grants life everlasting.
Amen and Amen!
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
(KJV.) I Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

EL ELOHIM MINISTRIES: DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

DAILY BREAD OF LIFE
(KJV.) II CORINTHIANS 2:14-17
(14) Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
(15) For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
(16) To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
(17) For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
SWEET SAVOUR OF CHRIST
Brethren, let us give glory to the LORD of hosts, for his victories and divine inspirations through us on planet earth; for in his perspective, we possess the same greatness and qualities of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, to both the redeemed and children of damnation; to the LORD, we are of the same qualities whether we live in perverseness unto death or live in godliness unto life everlasting; are our lives acceptable in any of these? as believers, we are not to change the words of the Lord to suit ourselves and our ungodly behaviors but to preach the gospel with truthful minds before the LORD of hosts through the righteousness of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Case in point, as believers, we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us; in the above text we learn that (i) the LORD of hosts will cause believers to triumph in Christ Jesus; that is no matter what mountains or obstacles placed on their paths of righteousness; Jesus will overcome by his blood and grant his believers victory, peace and everlasting joy; (ii) if we are willing to take necessary steps to follow after his will in our lives, Jesus, will empower us with great qualities of wisdom to impart to others and to lead us in faiths through his righteousness; (iii) for to the Lord, we all possess the same human qualities of Jesus Christ, and whether we are saved and walk in his righteousness or unsaved and walk in perverseness; we are all important in the eyes of the Lord; (iv) however, to the unsaved, is to continue to live ungodly lives and possess attributes of sin unto death; on the other hand, if we are saved, we will walk in grace with godly attributes which will lead us into life everlasting; which one of these attributes of life are we comfortable with today?
WORDS OF INSPIRATION:
Points to ponder, per the above text, (a) we are not to change the words of the Lord to suit our own perverseness or manipulate it with unacceptable teachings to lead humanity astray from the truth of his words; (b) but preach his words with freedom from hypocrisy to all humanity; for the LORD of hosts is looking to see if we are leading this generation into godliness; for this cause we are sent in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to preach all things in truth through his righteousness forevermore.
Fruits of thought; is not it wonderful to know that the LORD of hosts looks upon all humanity with the sweet savour of Christ? we are blessed forevermore! whether we are saved today or not, he loves us all; however, let us not get carried away, we still need to be saved so we can be joint heirs with Jesus Christ, and inherit life everlasting; let us look at our lives today and compare them to what we were ten years ago; have we experience any changes, both in looks and behaviors? if we have, we are not going to continue to buy ourselves times much longer; things do change, as the clock ticks every second, minutes and hours we are getting closer to our destinations in life; let us ask ourselves, which ways are we going today ways of damnation or ways of life everlasting? it is not too late to change destinations to life everlasting.
CONCLUSION:
Brethren, today we learn that God is love and his love for humanity has no boundaries; though we may be in the world and blindfolded by the enemy and continue to live ungodly lives, he loves us still because we are his children; what an amazing love! therefore, let us also love the LORD of hosts with all our hearts, souls and bodies; and love one another as ourselves; this is the whole law that will lead us into salvation Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior and eternity. Amen and Amen!
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
(KJV.) I Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
(14) Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
(15) For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
(16) To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
(17) For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

EL ELOHIM MINISTRIES: DAILY BREAD OF LIFE
EL ELOHIM MINISTRIES: DAILY BREAD OF LIFE: (KJV.) ACTS 20:22-25 (22) And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: ...
DAILY BREAD OF LIFE
(KJV.) ACTS 20:22-25
(22) And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
(23) Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.
(24) But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God
(25) And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
FAITH IN ACTION
Brethren, as believers, at times we have to exercise our faith beyond measures; what do we do, when the Holy Spirit warns us about dangers of persecutions and afflictions awaiting us if we have to go on an errand for Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; but are pretty determined to do his will regardless of what our predicaments will be? are we strengthened in faith to points where we will be willing to represent Jesus Christ and not think about ourselves or please humanity and forsake the works of the LORD of hosts?
Case in point, Apostle Paul during his ministry was pretty determined to go to Ephesus, and would not spend time in Asia because he wanted to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost; however, in every city that he went to, the Holy Spirit ministered to him that bonds and afflictions awaited for him in Jerusalem; but because of his calling as a minister of the gospel of the grace of God, though he was warned several times of dangers ahead; (i) none of those warning moved him, as believers, are our faiths strengthened to a point that though we face persecutions, we will still risk our lives for the sake of the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? (ii) Paul did not count his life dearly unto himself but unto the works of the Lord, as believers, let us pray for increase of faiths in the righteousness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that we may be able to yield our souls even unto death to the will of one who called us from darkness into his marvelous light; (iii) Paul wanted to finish his assignment and ministry with joy, as believers, let us take our callings into ministry more important and cheerfully complete them regardless of obstacles or predicaments to receive crown of glories and life everlastings; (iv) Apostle Paul's mission was to testify the gospel of the grace of God, as believers, let us take time to seek the Lord to find out exactly what our callings are in the body of Christ and joyfully serve and shine in those areas until end of our days on planet earth.
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT:
Points to ponder, all believers, are called to serve the Lord in the body of Christ; however, not all believers are to quit their jobs to submit to the will of Jesus Christ, we can still work for a living and serve him wherever we are in the secular world; for we are all gifted to function collectively as one body in the entire planet earth; therefore, let us not feel worried because we are working and not fully dedicated to serve him; if our callings are in the mission fields and we need to submit to his will in our lives, he will lead us into his will regardless of what mountains we are to overcome, he will get us there by his saving grace.
Fruits of thoughts, Apostle Paul, by the leadership of the Holy Spirit knew what will happen to him when he goes to Jerusalem; however, he feared the Lord, and wanted to do the right thing before him, therefore, he prayed for the congregation and bade them farewell and left for Jerusalem; (a) today, if we hear that we are about to be persecuted or tormented for righteousness sake and what will happen to us if we make a move in the will of the Lord; let us ask ourselves, can we be faithful to the Lord and fear not man? (b) again, let us ask ourselves, who among believers today is willing to suffer, die and be crucified on the Cross for sins he did not commit? only Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior can pay the price for sins he did not commit to redeem all humanity by his sufferings, death and resurrection; today, we receive salvation, grace and life everlasting.
CONCLUSION
Brethren, today, Apostle Paul had demonstrated his braveness as a believer in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, though he did not know what will happen to him at Jerusalem, he was faithful to his calling and through his perseverance and forbearance in the will of the Lord; today we have books of wisdom, guidance and inspirations from the Holy Spirit in the New Testament to lead us righteously through this perverse generation; if he did not yield himself completely to the will of the Father, he might not have received the wisdom unto humanity; as believers, let us follow after the will of the Father through the dictates of the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit and make ourselves available as vessels for glorification of the LORD of hosts through the righteousness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ forever and evermore. Amen and Amen!

(23) Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.

DAILY BREAD OF LIFE
(KJV.) JOHN 20:26-29
(26) And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
27) Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.
(28) And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
(29) Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
BE NOT FAITHLESS, BUT BELIEVING
Brethren, may the Peace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ abide with us all; though we believe in him as Lord and Savior and we live daily by his grace, protections and victories; at times, our faiths in his righteousness are not strong enough and can fail us when tested and doubts overwhelms our souls; however, when our faiths are being tested, let us believe in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, that he is able to work all things together for good to them that love God,..... (Romans 8:28); when we feel overwhelm with negative situations, we look for manifestations to believe that Jesus heard our prayers and look for ways to overcome our predicaments ourselves; however, when we pray, let us believe that he already taken control and overcame all situations by his death on the Cross of Calvary and we already have victories and trust in him to bring all things into fruition by his own will not ours; let us take necessary steps forward into his grace given freely for all to enjoy; for, it is always good to trust his will.
Points to ponder; when Jesus allows troubles to come our ways, he already has solutions to them on when, how and what ways to work all things out for our own benefits; therefore, regardless of what may be going on negatively in our lives today, let us have patience, pray, supplicate, read the scriptures, in it we will find all the answers of life situations; wisdom to understand our situations in life, knowledge to acquire the skills we need to take rightful footsteps to victory, understandings to judge our situations faithfully without any doubts but wait patiently upon the Lord and trust in him only; for they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; and they shall walk, and not faint..(Isaiah 39:31)
WORDS OF INSPIRATION:
Case in point, when Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior died and rose again from the death, he visited his disciples to show himself to them, but because Thomas Did-y-mus, was not among the disciples when Jesus came to empower them with the Holy Spirit to continue to with the ministry; later on, when Thomas was told what had happened, (i) though, he was with Jesus throughout his ministry and heard him preach about his sufferings, death and resurrection; he doubted that Jesus actually rose up again from the death and did not believe his own peers that he did rose up again; today, what type of doubts or fears do we have lingering over our souls? let us beware that Jesus, already taken control of all our emotional states of minds upon himself on the Cross of Calvary; let us also beware of the voice of the enemy when he provokes us to fall into his traps and rebuke him away from us in Jesus Name forever; (ii) let us know that Jesus is always faithful and trust in him and his words; for he knows our thoughts, hear our utterances and continually proves himself that he is who he said he is in our lives and can do all things for us, if only we believe and trust in him; after Thomas walked in his doubtful mind for eight days, Jesus appeared again among them to prove his authenticity to Thomas as the one who suffered, died and rose again to redeem all humanity into life everlasting; he asked him to reach his fingers and touch his hands, sides and not be faithless but believing; now he believed that Jesus had actually risen from the dead; today, what proves are we seeking to believe that Jesus will cast away all negative situations from our lives and grant us newer lives full of grace, peace, joy and life everlasting?
Fruit of thoughts, (a) Jesus said, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: today, what else can be done to humanity that Jesus had not already done so by his sufferings, death and resurrection; we just have to believe in the finish works of the cross and enjoy grace to the fullest and life everlasting; let us not doubt his death on the cross but believe in him as Lord and Savior forever. (b) Jesus said, blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed; today, if we are in any negative situations, let us not try to lean on our own understandings, but believe in Jesus Christ whom we do not see with naked eyes that he sees our predicaments and will take absolute control and fix all things for good by his saving grace forevermore.
CONCLUSION:
Brethren, as believers, let us always pray to be strengthened in faiths through the righteousness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; for the enemy cannot pester believers, without permissions granted from Jesus Christ, and if Jesus allows the enemy to trouble our souls, there are may be unknown reasons why; therefore, if we are in any negative situations today; let us pray for spirits of discernment to know what to do in those situations and not doubt if things will ever work out but trust in Jesus to help us overcome by his death and resurrection; let us not be faithless, but believing in the finish works of the cross and know for sure that all things will work together for good by his saving grace forever and evermore. Amen and Amen!

Brethren, as believers, let us always pray to be strengthened in faiths through the righteousness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; for the enemy cannot pester believers, without permissions granted from Jesus Christ, and if Jesus allows the enemy to trouble our souls, there are may be unknown reasons why; therefore, if we are in any negative situations today; let us pray for spirits of discernment to know what to do in those situations and not doubt if things will ever work out but trust in Jesus to help us overcome by his death and resurrection; let us not be faithless, but believing in the finish works of the cross and know for sure that all things will work together for good by his saving grace forever and evermore. Amen and Amen!
