Colonel Daniel Maina

I am much blessed by the experience of Bible survey, utmost I thank my God through My Lord Jesus for giving me the strength and courage throughout and finish it successful, I humble before Him who make all things possible and go well with those He love. I take this opportunity to thank my dear sister Pastor Teresia Kariuki who introduced me to Rolisom. I love you Teresia in the love of Jesus the Mighty LORD. Persuading a valiant Soldier to be a mighty soldier of our LORD Jesus Christ, again Teresia heko, take my five, soldiers are not easily curved or convince, you’re a hero, Teresia. Because it took me four(4)months to think about it and digest but finally God’s grace overwhelmed me. Although I used to read my Bibles from genesis to Revelation but not as serious as this also with not questions. Secondly, I would like to thank our dear Bishop Moses the founder of Rolisom when I contacted him through WhatsApp, immediately he called me and encouraged me alot. Again thinking deeply it’s beyond imagination that someone caming up with more than thousands questions from the Bible to all students and marking them it’s not a simple thing it need alot of grace, questions that are well thought, well planned, organize and well articulated,. Also when I needed clarification Bishop was there for me. Bishop Moses God bless you, God also bless Pastor Leah your dear wife and our dear Mum because behind every good deeds is woman with a lot of humility thank you Bishop Moses and your family. It was the best experience to put all my energy and concentration only on the Bible, sometimes I stop reading to think what the writer want and why? and the power and the hand behind it. I got to learn that the Bible is carrying just one message, God’s unfailing, unconditional, steadfast love, His great mercy, His compassion, faithfulness and forgiveness and the good plan for mankind, for me and for you, sometime I would take it personal, the precious Master is talking to me and the planner He has for me, oooooh it was wonderful, chapters, verses touch me greatly giving me insight and discernment at the same time. From the beginning the wonderful God had a well laid out plan for us, for instant with miracles and wonders He brought Jacob out of Egypt, feeding him with food meant for angels. Also I learned that sometimes we become accustomed to situations either good or bad, Isrealites wanted to go back to Egypt but God’s good plan is to deliver them out of slavery, look again in Babylon the same, human weakness exposed here, unless God open our spiritual eyes we’re blind, lack of insight, besides God’s many miracles and wonders in our life we still doubt Him. Though God was angry, He did not leave them or His plan uncomplished until they inherited the promised land through teaching, chastening and shaping them. I continue seeing God’s favor and promise towards us, to me, to you, eg in Isaiah 49:22-26 Thus says the LORD God “behold I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations ( to Rolisom,, to us) And set up My standards for the people’s. They shall bring your sons in their arms, And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders :King shall be your foster father, And their queens your nursing mothers. They shall bow down to you with their faces to the Earth and lick up the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am the LORD. (oooooh that great) for they shall not be ashamed who wait for me. Shall the prey be taken from the mighty or the captives of the righteous be delivered. But thus says the LORD”Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, And the prey of the terrible be delivered, for I WILL CONTEND WITH HIM WHO CONTEND WITH YOU. and I will save your children(what a wonderful promise). God is slow to anger and ready to forgive as the Bible tells us. He gives us chance to return to Him and immediately or once we do, we’re totally forgiven and accepted, devils want us to die in sins. He knows our weaknesses. To describe God’s love, mercy, grace, faithfulness etc not library can contain it. God is good to us, reading the Bible, He told prophet Elijah in 1 king 21:27-29” see how Ahab humble himself before me “God relent, despite King Ahab sins God was touched by Ahab humbleness and now mercy was beckoning. See how God is merciful and forgiving, Redemption plans in our God plan. relate acts7:60 Stephen word” Lord do not charge them with this sin” also Luke 23:34 Jesus said “Father, forgive them for they do not know what they do” This teaches me…. Because forgiving is one of God’s components, unforgiving heart will never see God (read verses talking about the power behind forgiving) Stephen forgave them, Jesus forgave them WHY? Is to deny the Satan and his agents ground to accuse you because God’s redemption and forgiveness is His way of working. Again I learned, Jesus brought us a new covenant superseding the old covenant God brought through Moses, with the new covenant Hebrew 10:19″ Therefore brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus “The new covenant of Jesus’s blood, the veil was removed (Haleluya) verse 22” let us draw near with a TRUE HEART in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water”(Amen). Finally, to those still doing Bible survey, brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus, oooooh beloved of the LORD, Encourage yourselves in the LORD, when Paul was writing most of his books was either in prison or in a disappointment situations But, But Almighty God gave him humble time to write, we’re not in prison or similar. so put more effort, sacrifice your time to God’s work, encourage one another, love your fellow students, pray for the ROLISOM, for the Bishop Moses and all those who manage ROLISOM with him, Don’t let the devil whisper to you, have faith and trust in God. God bless you, God bless ROLISOM, God bless Bishop Moses.
