Your choice in Fulfilling Divine Prophecies by Dr. W.F. Kumuyi

Introduction: The study of the word is the backbone of the believer. And we pray in the word. Prayer is important after Bible study.

Believing the word that we learn, hear, and study is very important. John 12:37, 38, 42, 44, 46.

When we believe the word of God, then the arm of the Lord, majesty, and possibilities in the word are revealed. It is indispensable that we believe. If you don’t believe, the benefit of the word will not be yours.

The word of God you believe will do good in your life. When you believe, you receive new life, eternal life, grace for salvation, grace for right living, grace to be obedient to God, sanctification, holiness of heart, divine nature, promises of the Lord, you’re lifted from earth to heaven.

If you don’t believe you reject forgiveness, salvation, God’s love, salvation, God’s offer of eternal life, and such will be the lost forever.

God does not force anyone to fulfil His prophecies. Matthew 13:14.

The damned fulfil prophecies of damnation by their personal choice. Mt. 13:!4. You choose what prophecy will come to pass in your life. God does not impose blessing or cursing on you. You get to choose what you want (Deut. 30:20).

Psalm 119:30; Proverbs 1:24

God calls many and those who answer the call are forgiven.
Proverbs 1:33 – Whoso hearkens unto me shall dwell safely.
