#13 The Believers Diligence
By Paul B Thomas

Topic: Diligence

Scripture Reading: 2 Cor 8;7 Proverbs 6:6-11

Purpose: Diligence enables us to keep what God has blessed us with. Diligence enables us to own our lives and take control of our future. These are principles which rule the financial, spiritual and earthly worlds and should not be confused with grace and favour. Neither substituted for the course of diligence.

1.What is the believer exhorted to excel in?
But as you excel in everything – in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in our love for you – see that you excel in this act of grace also. (2 Cor 8:7e ESV).

2.What are we to add to our faith?
For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self- control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. (2 Peter 1;5-7 ESV).

3.What does Solomon say in relation to a Shepherds diligence.

Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks (Proverbs 27:3).

4.What does the wisest man who ever lived say regarding financial diligence.

He that gatherers in summer is a wise son but he that sleepers in harvest is a son that causeth shame (Proverbs 10:5).

5.Can a believer be rich in industry (business).

The hand of the diligent maketh rich (Proverbs 10:4).

6.How does Preparation and planning ward off poverty. 

Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest. How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man. (Proverbs 6;6-11).

7.We are to be diligence in keeping our motives and attitude pure

Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. (Proverbs 4;23).

8.What is the key to the believer’s harvest of blessing?

And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. (Gal 6:9)

9.How should we be diligent in our seeking after God?

But without faith it is impossible to please God; for he that comes to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those that diligently seek him (Hebrews 11;6)

He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who instructed him in the fear of God, and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper. (2 Chron 26:5).

10.How does diligence lead to promotion in the workplace

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute. (Proverbs 12;24).

Tribute: Tax in the form of enforced labour.

These papers are written By Paul B Thomas for the propagation of the true gospel of Jesus Christ, the understanding of the apostles doctrine and the revelation of Jesus Christ.

NOTES:
Diligence is the ability to navigate struggles and setbacks and arrivei at ones chosen open heaven.

In life we all face struggles. whether you’re a surgeon or street cleaner, an aristocrat or a street artist. rich or poor. struggles are challenges, opportunities to get out of the rut and every vocation rich or poor has its ruts). its monotonous moments, its routine, its ritual and its struggles.

Diligence is the art of the smart and the reward of the faithful. the faithful shall abound with blessings and indeed there in no greater area in which one should be faithful than in the area of struggle sand setback. if you can master these two barriers you can win in life. ignore them and you’re doomed to failure.

Diligence is the art of the smart who find solutions to problems others are overcome by. Those who get ahead of the crowd are indeed those who can navigate crisis and push forward irrespective of obstacles in their way. Instances are indeed stepping stones to a higher dimension. and it’s as we have a positive view of obstacles we see them not as barriers but open gates. Access points to what’s bigger, better and more desirable.

QUESTIONS:

1.What is the definition of diligence mean? What’s the meaning of “tribute” as in Prov 12:24? 2.List three aspects of diligence? 3.What are the differences between a prosperous man and a sluggard? 4.How can the believer develop habits of industry, technology and spirituality.

By Paul B Thomas

Topic: What FAITH Can Do
Scripture Reading: (Hebrews 11:6)
Purpose: faith comes by hearing and rehearing the Word of God

1.Every man has a measure of faith
For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. (Romans 12:3).

2.We cannot please God without Faith
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. (Hebrews 11:6).

3. We cannot pray, without having faith
But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. (James 1:6)

4. We cannot be saved without faith
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (Ephesians 2:8).

5. We cannot live for God without Faith
The just shall live by faith (Romans 1:17

6. You cannot walk the walk or talk the talk without faith
We walk by faith and not by sight (2 Cor 5:7)



NOTES:

FAITH BUILDERS: WHAT DOES FAITH DO... Faith gives you courage to move on and embrace the new. Faith gives you the ability to say yes to the challenge and say no to the dissapointments. Faith moves you out of the rut and into revival, out of hopelessness and into a bright tomorrow. Faith lets Go of yesterday and let's God do something new today. Faith says yes when doubt says no, Faith embraces new things, horizons, possibilities, dreams and a new start. Yes thats what FAITH is... A new Start.. Embrace faith today, change your life tomorrow.."ALL things are possible to him who belives." (Jesus).

Faith is the working out of all impossibilities so that when you arrive at a deciding point you get rid of all options. It's saying yes when you dare not say No. Its embracing the world thing to do the great thing and then move silently into action

Faith dont need a debate. You can't debate God anymore than you can debate with your ultimate destiny, the thing God has in store for you. Its a present, a gift., God's gift to you. Yes faith is God's gift to you to do what you are not capable of doing without him. Its a bit like a business deal with divinity. God needs You and you need divinity. Now with that in mind ask yourself what are you doing that's just simply out of this world?

Faith makes invisible things seeable and embraceable, Faith energises thelife within and says, "let's do it!"

The source of your future is your faith, the faith you have right now,  which means right now if you have faith you can create your future and live it as if it already exists. Faith says it does. So why wait for tomorrow? Your future has already arrived! 

“Faith is a participation in an event called POSSIBLE”

NOTES:
1.A happy home is a home where everyone is edified, appreciated, valued and cares one for another. God gave us the foundation for a happy home(Genesis 2;8)
2. To make a happy home a man needs a happy woman(Genesis 2;18)
3. A happy home shares the same values
4. A happy home shares the same goals, dreams and ideals
5. A happy home is where folks are thought well of. ‘The glory of children are their fathers (Proverbs 17;6)
6. A happy home is where there is mutual submission (Ephesians 5:22,23)
7. A happy home is where there’s a healthy balance between recreation together and ones separate work. The happy home has time for each other and values a time for work. (Ecc 3:1-9) And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.
8.A happy home values the elderly and takes time to visit the sick (Proverbs 23;22) ‘Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old.’ (Lev 19:32) Stand up in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly and revere your God. I am the LORD.
9.Care one for another is a foundation for a happy home (1 Cor 12:25)
10.A happy home has time for God, prayer and church fellowship (Hebrews 1:;25).

The family that loves the Lord is a happy family. It has structure and order. and because it has structure and order it finds peace and security. The family that has a family prayer time has intimacy and love a boding takes place and togetherness is real and never superficial. Children grow up with a Christ like trust, confidence in themselves their faith and their Lord. A Godly family true raises positive kids, kids who will walk in wisdom and carry forth the purposes of God to their generation.
It must be strongly noted that it is never the governments job or duty to raise up children rather it is the parents duty to instruct their children. No one knows the children better than the parents and its the parents who are required by the Lord to teach them the ways of the lord. hence they will take on the success that alone God them later in their life. There is no place that prepares them for failure or success greater than the home. The home is where they learn their values, approval, confidence and place in life and family. THE HOME IS THE EDUCATIONAL CENTER OF LIFE. There is no place more important that the family home.

Working The Works of Jesus

THE PBT TOPICAL BIBLE NOTES
#05 Working The Works of Jesus
By Paul B Thomas

Topic: Working the works of Jesus
Scripture Reading:
Purpose: 

1.Does Jesus heal all?
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil (Acts 10:38.)

2. Does Jesus have all power?
Jesus came and spake unto them, saying ,all power is given unto me in heaven and earth (Matt 28:18).

3. Did Jesus assign us to do his works
Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these(John 14;12-14).I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work (John 9;4).

4.Who has all power?
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. (Matthew 28:18-20).
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth (Acts 1;8).

5.What authority have we do carry out his mission?
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you (Luke 10:19).
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come (John 16:13).

6.What specific power have we?
Go into all the world and preach the gospel
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. (Romans 1:16).

7.What works are we do do?
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. (Matthew 10:8).

8.If we have his power to carry out his mission then surely we must do it in his name?
And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this? (Acts 4:7). And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. (Acts 4:33).

9. Is faith required by the sick
Thy people shall willing in the day of thy power (Psalm 110:3)

10. Can the believer who trust in the name of Jesus heal the sick?
Then he had called unto him his twelve disciples he gave them power against unclean spirits to cast them out and to heal all manner of sicknesses and all manner of disease (Matt 10:1) (Mark 6:7)

11. Can the believer work the works of God too?
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. (John 9:4). Wist ye not that I must be about my father’s business (Luke 2:49)

NOTES:

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work (JOHN 9:4).

Jesus always had a certain dialogue that always indicated that he and the father were one. ‘I say only what he says,’ ‘I do only what he tells me.’ ‘I say to you, a son cannot do anything on his own, but only what he sees his father doing’ (John 5;19). For I have not spoken on my own authority: the Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and what to speak (John 12;49).
What thirty three-year old would even talk like this after all for all men have freedom to say what they want and do what they want, when they want, yes Jesus talked like a son even though he was a man, always, and it’s in this that we have a unique discovery, that even as a man he was still the ‘Everlasting Father.’ for if Jesus had lived until he was eighty or ninety (as a man) he still would have had used this ‘child’s talk.’ indeed throughout his life.
Secondly we see the oneness of God here at work that will never been seen in the human world, Some objectors to the oneness of God teaching witll use the illustrationof a three membered family to point out how aman and a woman can be one Of coursem my response to this, It does not matter how ‘one’ a man is with his wife he will never be at this point or could claim to be at this point where he would be saying ‘I only say what my wife tells me.’ Further enforcing the point that oneness cannot exist as a triune being with any other being, oneness can only exist in one’s own soul in a man being one with God. Further oneness is a God thing between natures not persons.
Jesus came to do the works of God and indeed no man can do the works of God unless he has his Spirit and his nature,
Matthew 28 gives us another key "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. No ‘man’ has power in heaven and earth. Yet Jesus as a man said he had power in heaven and earth. NO MAN has power in heaven and earth yet Jesus has power over all men for he said that the disciples were to teach all men and baptise them into his name. Proof again that it was God himself who made these commandments and that Jesus was and is indeed God alone

# Economic Prosperity
Reading Psalm 35;27

Topic: Economic Prosperity
Scripture Reading: Matthew 16:15,16)
Purpose: Understanding God’s eternal wealth system
By Paul B Thomas

A MINI COURSE

Introduction:

“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you” (Luke 6:38).

“That I may cause those who love me to inherit wealth, that I may fill their treasuries” (Proverbs 8:21)

He that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness; Being enriched in everything to all bountifulness. (2 Corinthians 9:10-11)

4. Wealth comes to further God's Cause.

let them shout for joy and be glad and favor my righteous cause, let them say continually. Let the Lord be magnified which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant (Psalm 35:27).

5.Wealth comes by keeping God's covenant

I you are willing and obedient you will eat of the good of the land (Isaiah 1:19).

6. Wealth comes by being industrious.

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest - and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man (Proverbs 24;3 - 34). Proverbs 10:4– “A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.” Also, Proverbs 12:11– “Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread, but he who follows worthless pursuits lacks sense.”

7. True wealth comes to those whose priority is righteousness first

Available in STORE

Ecclesiastes 5:10– “He who loves money will not be satisfied with money” Proverbs 10:22– “The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.

8. Wealth comes to those who give to the Lord

Givers become wealth recievers, Proverbs 19:17– “Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will repay him for his deed.”

9. Wealth does not come by work alone

Wealth comes by being financially astute. We have sown much and bring in little, ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you. but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put into a bag of holes
(Haggai 1:6).

10. God is the source of all wealth.
The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. (Proverbs 10:22).

NOTES

Wealthy is not worldly and poverty is not godly. Money does make one a sinner. Sin makes one a sinner. Prosperity is Gods will. Prosperity is having enough to meet our own needs and meet the needs of others. Prosperity put a man in control of his daily lifestyle habits and destiny. Poverty takes away this right. Poverty makes  man a slave. Money enables us to do far more in the kingdom and take the gospel to the world just as Jesus intended. Money is not why we preach money helps us preach.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. Blessed "oh, the happiness"- “And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” (Psalm 1:3). shall prosper--literally, "make prosper," brings to perfection. (A. R. FAUSSET).

Wisdom along with an inheritance is good And an [excellent] advantage for those who see the sun.12 For wisdom is a protection even as money is a protection, But the [excellent] advantage of knowledge is that wisdom shields and preserves the lives of its possessors. (Ecc 7:11,12 AMP).

Wisdom is better when it’s paired with money, Especially if you get both while you’re still living. Double protection: wisdom and wealth!
Plus this bonus: Wisdom energizes its owner. (Ecc 7:11,12 MESSAGE).

For further Study:

Questions to Consider: 1. What are the traps of poverty. 2.How many missionaries can you support when you are broke. 3. How can you feed your family and see to their needs if God does not bless you. 4. Name five ways god blesses his people. 5. Earning money and yet squandering it is displeasing to God no matter how hard one works. Hard work must accompany wisdom. Read proverbs and what God says on posessing wealth.

9.Care one for another is a foundation for a happy home (1 Cor 12:25)
10.A happy home has time for God, prayer and church fellowship (Hebrews 1:;25).

The family that loves the Lord is a happy family. It has structure and order. and because it has structure and order it finds peace and security. The family that has a family prayer time has intimacy and love a boding takes place and togetherness is real and never superficial. Children grow up with a Christ like trust, confidence in themselves their faith and their Lord. A Godly family true raises positive kids, kids who will walk in wisdom and carry forth the purposes of God to their generation.
It must be strongly noted that it is never the governments job or duty to raise up children rather it is the parents duty to instruct their children. No one knows the children better than the parents and its the parents who are required by the Lord to teach them the ways of the lord. hence they will take on the success that alone God them later in their life. There is no place that prepares them for failure or success greater than the home. The home is where they learn their values, approval, confidence and place in life and family. THE HOME IS THE EDUCATIONAL CENTER OF LIFE. There is no place more important that the family home.

2.What is God’s purpose for the family.
3.What is the value fo having religion in the home?
4.What does scriptures say about husbands and wives connecting and relating (Ephesians 5;22-33; 1 Peter 3;1-7).
