DISCIPLES OUT OF THE WILL OF GOD

May 16th – Capsule 16

TOPIC: DISCIPLES OUT OF THE WILL OF GOD

BIBLE TEXT: From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with Him – John 6 vs 66.

When you show loyalty, is it with all your heart? A true born again Christian follows with everything and not one-leg in and the other out in pleasure and carnality. The disciples of Christ were many at first but only His chosen 12 were willing to submit their lives to Christ sincerely. Many bear the title “Christian” and are proud of it, but are not willing to walk as disciples of Christ sold out to God's will. The pleasures of this world has corrupted many brethren and disciples of Christ who become lustful, then fall into sin and are now spiritually dead in faith.

The above scripture reveals that the gospel truth was hard for them to accept, so they left Jesus Christ. John 14 vs 17 – even the Sprirt of Truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him”. Many Christians want their will over that of Christ, so they need to be pleased, pampered and satisfied or they get offended at the sermon, the Master, the Minister and just like the disciples mentioned in John 6 vs 66, they willingly walk out of righteousness.

Jesus will let you go when you are offended with the truth and when you hate the Holy Spirit (the Spirit of Truth), then your actions demonstrates that you hate God the Father. Just as Christ didn’t force those disciples to return so he won’t force those who reject the ways of truth and discipleship. The judgement awaiting them is going to be very terrible, for ‘Tyre and Sidon will even receive less torment – Luke 10 vs 14.


Prayer: Father, I have derailed out of your way of righteousness, please forgive me, let me know the truth and walk as a disciple of Christ.

Insight: Return back to Jesus Christ quickly while you still have breath in you and ask for mercy as you submit your will to the Lord.

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

God's Security

DATE 27th January, 2023 TOPIC God's Security LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 13:21 KJV And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: Security has been of prime importance to man after the fall of man from glory. The need for spiritual and physical security became a priority due to the rapid increase in crime and violence caused by man's sinful nature and the devil's influence on vulnerable souls. Some people go as far as fortifying themselves with charms and native concussion while other trust in gadgets and technology and the government to protect their lives and properties. And it was not so in the beginning when God created Adam and Eve. The Lord placed man in a garden (a peaceful serene environment) there was absolutely no reason to be afraid or the thought of thieves because the Lord was their security officer. Man fell and the hearts and intents of ma

Christ is not far!

DATE 22nd June, 2023 TOPIC Christ is not far! LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:16-17 KJV And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;  [17] Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Jesus Christ came to save us and that we might be one just as He and the Father in Heaven are one. He is not far from those who believe in Him and His words but still many look to the sky or climb high mountains to find the Lord who sits gloriously in our hearts by His Spirit and Words. His words says that the comforter will dwell (continually live in) you and not just that but He will also be with you. He is within and without us in covering and inspiration. Seek not Jesus that is far but He that is closer to your heart and by your confessions daily. TO-DO Call on Him this morning from your hearts and worship and fellowship in the
