Today's reading: 1 Corinthians 10:15-33

And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David. Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
Acts 13:32-37

Thoughts on the Book of Acts (110)
Paul testified to his Jewish listeners that God kept His promise. He sent them the Messiah, His own Son. Jesus was born as a Man on earth, and as a Man, He is the Son of God. The apostle carefully bases the validity of his message in all its essential points with quotations from the Old Testament.
By His resurrection from among the dead, Christ has left the realm of death once for all time. Under the new covenant, He can thus bring His people the sure, unchangeable "mercies of David", as the prophet Isaiah prophesied (ch.55).
The resurrection of the Messiah had already been prophesied in the Old Testament. In Psalm 16, David excluded any possibility of the "Lord's Holy One" being exposed to corruption. This referred to the Messiah, as Paul stated. David remained dead, but Christ left the tomb, having been resurrected by God.

FASTING IS NECESSARY

To relate with the Holy Spirit, you must be holy. You must also exercise a living faith, pray and fast. Some people will tell you that because had finished the work of salvation, there is no need to fast. To them, fasting is completely needless and is some form of self-inflicted punishment. But they forget that...More

HOW PROPHETIC ARE YOUR NAMES?

The name you bear is very important because it serves as your identity and your future may be connected to it. The name a person bears is sometimes indicative of the experiences he or she will encounter in life. Take for instance Moses: this name means "drawn out of water"
