HEAVEN 30 JULY 2021 TOPIC: The Marks of the Lord
Jesus Christ
MEMORISE: From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body
the marks of the Lord Jesus. – Galatians 6:17
READ: Titus 2:11-15 (KJV)
11 For the grace of God that bringeth
salvation hath appeared to all men,
12 Teaching us that, denying
ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly,
in this present world;
13 Looking for that blessed hope, and
the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14 Who gave himself for us, that he
might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people,
zealous of good works.
15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
BIBLE

Open Heaven 30 July 2021 MESSAGE:
A mark can be described as an impression, a distinguishing
trait or quality. Every genuine child of God bears some mark within them that
identifies him or her as a child of God.
“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we
are the children of God.” “Romans 8:16”
One distinguishing traitor quality that indicates ownership
by the Lord Jesus is holiness which produces faithfulness and other Christian
virtues. Every one belonging to Christ is expected to be holy in order to
exhibit His characteristics. Faithfulness is another hallmark of a Christian
carrying the mark of Jesus. This results in our steadfastness in prayer, tithes
and offerings, studying the word of God, our marital relationships, general
human relations and our service to God. God expects you as His child to be
faithful to Him, yourself and others. Christ came to do the perfect will of God
for His life. Hebrews 10:7 says:

“Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is
written of me,) to do thy will, O God.”
Open Heaven 30 July 2021 – OPEN HEAVEN FOR TODAY
Anything that brings shame or
reproach to the name of the Lord is not His will for your life. Are you
passionate about the things of God? Do you obey the Bible which is the written
word of God? Love is another mark of the Lord Jesus. John 13:1 says:
“Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that
his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father,
having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.”
Indicators of love include endurance, kindness,
selflessness, humility, self-discipline and purity. Love subdues pride and vain
glory; It is not puffed up with conceit. It is not insolent, neither does it
despise others, trample on them, nor treat them with contempt and scorn. Love
is selfless, the complete opposite of selfishness. It cannot harbour malice,
neither can it plan evil. Holiness and love are two marks of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Do you bear these marks?
Open Heaven 30 July 2021 PRAYER POINT:
Father,
please let the marks of the Lord Jesus be evident in my life, for Your glory.

Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.
