A CLOCK HEART

May 17th – Capsule 17

TOPIC: A CLOCK HEART

BIBLE TEXT: Therefore his sisters went unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick . . . . he said, this sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God . . . . then when Jesus came he found that he had lain in the grave four days already – John 11:3-4&17

Believers today have a clock heart, we always want things done fast and for it to go our way, which is not bad, I also desire such but we must understand that the ways of our Heavenly Father are different from ours. Mary and Martha worked with a clock heart in John 11, their brother, a true christian, not only that, but a ‘beloved’ of Christ personally. With a close relationship yet the Lord Jesus Christ waited two more days after he heard their prayer request. 
Sometimes we are too quick to judge the Lord when we don’t receive that gift, that request or that expectation, as children of God when we pray, this doesn’t mean Our Father did not hear us, rather He is planning a grand entrance to make His Children a wonder unto many.

The striking question here is, will you wait for His response or will you hurry and kill that prayer with doubt, frustration and desperation – the ways of the flesh? They buried Lazarus before Christ came to give life, healing and strength. Don’t set a timer for God, time works for God and not God for time. He has heard you and He is coming with the ripe answers, cheer up and trust in the Lord.


Prayer: Lord Jesus I trust you and will never again work with a clock heart on your promises, help me to wait prayerfully and faithfully on you in Jesus name.

Insight: Let go of your clock thoughts and timing for God's blessings and see the wonders of Christ in your life.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a...

Breakfast with Jesus

DATE 24th June, 2023 TOPIC Breakfast with Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 65:4 KJV Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. The Psalmist was a peculiar man and one that feared the LORD and walked in the paths of righteousness. In his meditation and Psalms, he learnt to dine with Jesus Christ early and through Psalms, from the 63rd to the 66th, he found a way to breakfast with Jesus. The first contact we should have everyday is Jesus Christ, to receive of His glorious satisfaction early, contentment and to be filled with the goodness and mercy He gives His children daily. When a child eats with his parents there's that joy and peace within, such comfort and full assurance. Jesus Christ always ate with our Heavenly Father while He was here on earth, He sought after the LORD daily and was satisfied with the glory and goodness of the Father. Each...

Forgiveness of Sins

DATE - April 7th, 2022 TOPIC - Forgiveness of Sins BIBLE TEXT - Acts 5:31 AMP God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior and Deliverer, in order to grant repentance to Israel, and [to grant] forgiveness of sins. Apostle Peter stood tall before the council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) to speak with boldness about a God who Saves and sets free any sinner from the power of sin. As a man who has been shown mercy though a man once filled with sinful ways, the Holy Spirit quickened him through his personal testimony of experiencing true forgiveness of sins before the Jewish High Court. Peter was a local fisherman with no knowledge of the gospel truth, who lived as he pleased. Until he encountered Jesus when Christ was walking by the sea of Galilee and he spotted Simon Peter who was in his boat struggling to catch a few fishes for days. Like many out there today who are living in sin and still struggling to make ends meet, Jesus is passing through that street, area...
