Topic: REQUIREMENTS FOR LIVING WITH ETERNITY IN VIEW
Text: Read: Hebrews 12:14
Daily Bible Study: Gen. 41-42; Matt. 11

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness without which no man shall see the Lord” (Heb. 12:14)

For every believer with eternity in view, certain requirements relevant to achieving this goal are expected to be made. God is a holy God and cannot behold evil (Hab. 1:13). As pilgrims on our journey to eternity, we must live our lives in holiness unto the Lord all the days of our lives.  As obedient children, we should live in holiness in order to please God.
For progress in our Christian race, we must feed on God’s word regularly and conscientiously. This will keep us far away from evil and help us know God in a better way, walking before Him in truth and in spirit. The word of God should be our standard and must be applied in all situations of our lives. Daily study and meditation on God’s word will make us prosper, and have good success in all our endeavours.
We need the baptism of the Holy Spirit to teach us what we ought to know. He will bring to our remembrance all that we have been taught. We need Him to counsel, help and lead us into all truth. No believer with eternity in view can go far without the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Our lives should be a pointer to others that living in eternity with God is the ultimate goal we should aspire to achieve. We must strive daily to live in God’s glory. Through prayer we cast our cares and burden on God and in return, receive the enabling power to carry on our life’s journey.

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank You for Your peace upon our lives. Help us to enjoy Your divine protection as we pass through life’s journey to eternity. We pray in Jesus’ name – Amen.

Yar'adua 23, And brought into power Y. Gowon 32, Ojukwu 33, Obasanjo 29, And Buhari 24! Most of the military governors who governed the states under the successive military regimes were under 30 years.

Under 30's were also not in short supply with a...
