CAN YOU RECEIVE FROM OTHERS?

May 4th – Capsule 4

TOPIC: CAN YOU RECEIVE FROM OTHERS?

BIBLE TEXT: I assure you: the one who receives whoever I send, receives me - John 13 vs. 20.

You would be surprised at how many people live beyond help, because they have an image to uphold. It’s a dangerous place to be. When trials come, not only must you be open to the Lord, but also whoever He sends. 

Listen: “And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; …………… and the angels ministered unto him” (Mark 1 vs. 13). Even Jesus needed ministry.

He created the angels, yet HE permitted them to minister to Him. The greater was willing to receive help than the lesser. What a lesson for you! When your pain level get high enough, you won’t care who God uses. If you were in a burning house you wouldn’t care who the firemen were. Their education, denomination, and ethnic background, would mean nothing to you, because of the urgency of your need.

Perhaps your problem is that you need someone but you don’t trust anyone. Start trusting God! Whom do you think brought you this far? Listen: “Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed; says the Lord, who has compassion on you” (Isaiah 54 vs. 10). 
When God extends His love and compassion to you, don’t be too proud to accept it.

Prayer: Lord help me to follow your word and do accordingly at all time, make me humble enough to receive from those whom you send my way.

Insight: When you accept it, you accept Him.

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...

THE EASY WAY

Date 📅 23rd September, 2022 Topic The Easy Way Living Scripture Matthew 7:13 KJV Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: There are many ways and roads in life both spiritually and physically but the paths we choose to walk on determines our destination at the end. This world is full of sin and disobedience and selfishness, it has a wide gate welcoming everyone and it's paths are broad to gather much people in order to destroy their lives. Lying has become part of the way of so many today even some part of the church lie and claim it's the easy way out of troubles and confrontations. The easy way or short cut as it is often mentioned is not the way of life neither the way of righteousness. Looking for the easy way is looking for death, it is an invitation to false spirits that corrupts and pollutes. Let us seek to know the true path that leads to life and life in...

PECULIAR PEOPLE

Date 📅 31st August, 2022 Topic Peculiar People  Living Scripture 1 Peter 2:9 KJV But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: In the beginning God the Father was and is and is to come for a particular kind of people as He once did with Adam and eve in Eden. He created the heavens and the earth and everything that lives and breathes. And by the power of His Word He made man in His own image and likeness. Therefore man was made right from the beginning to be peculiar and fit for the glory of God. There was no plan in God's holy palm to reduce man to a pauper, it was our sinful ways and disobedience that caused us to fall short of this beautiful inheritance our first father once partook of. A peculiar People stands different, out of the ordinary, unusual and unpredictable from a specific clan or place. The scripture reads t...
