Daily Fountain 2017 - Objection Overruled








Tuesday February 14

Bible Reading:     Romans 3: 1 - 8

Topic:         Objection Overruled

Our topic today is a normal language in a Court of Law, whenever a Lawyer objects to an issue, if the Judge is not satisfied with the objection of the Lawyer he will usually say "Objection overruled" - that is, the Lawyer's objection is rejected.

In our text we see the objections of the Jews to the Gospel and the response of God through Paul to the objections.

There are three objections raised by the Jews that they don't need the Gospel:

1.      The advantage of circumcision (v. 1) - an objection that was overruled in v. 2
2.      God's Covenant with the Jews is not annulled by the Gospel (v. 3) which is overruled in v. 4
3.      Our sin is profitable because it magnifies the grace of God (v. 5) an argument overruled by the fact that God is a Sound and Sincere Judge.

All arguments and objections of men to justify sinning and non-service to Him are all already overruled.

What are your objections to the Word of God?
They are all overruled.

May God give you the humility to follow Him in His Ways and not to hurt your soul in eternal damnation in the name of objections to the Word of God.

Prayer:
Lord, overrule all my objections to Your Word, Amen

Memory verse:   Romans 3: 3
"For what if some did not believe?, shall their unbelief make the Faith of God without effect?"

Daily Fountain 2017 - It Is To Your Advantage

Sunday May 21 5th Sunday After Easter Bible Reading:      John 16: 5 - 22 Topic:          It Is To Your Advantage In life we must be ready to endure some level of discomfort in the present, in order to enjoy comfort in the future. The disciples had become comfortable with the presence and involvement of Jesus in their lives, but Jesus announced to them that it was necessary for Him to return to His Father in order that the Holy Ghost might come. If Jesus stayed, He would be only in one place at a time; but His Spirit would be everywhere at the same time. The disciples had to recognize therefore that growth and maturity come with sacrifice which involves willingness to step out of our comfort zone. God knows the best for you. Be sensitive to the leading of His Spirit. Desire progress but don't reject the change that brings it. Yes, you may be in an uncomfortable situation now, but God uses it to work out His purposes fo

God Is Not A Partial God

  God Is Not A Partial God   I want to say something to someone today and that is the title of this message - God is not a partial God. Every day that the Sun rises, it does not rise for certain people that God loves more than others, it rises for all (including even those who don't believe in the existence of God) Every night that the Moon shines, it does not shine for a select group of persons who God loves most, it shines for all irrespective of their religious affiliations including those who have no religion. The 4 seasons happen for all inhabitants of the earth - there is no discrimination. Life happens to all irrespective of our belief system. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Evil people prosper as much if not much more than good hearted people - Is that God's doing? You see, whenever you see someone doing something exceptional, something extraordinary it is not about luck, it is not about favour, it's not ev
