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.

Capsule One - (WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY?)

May 1st – Capsule 1 TOPIC: WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY? BIBLE TEXT: Let us lay aside every weight and sin which easily beset us … Hebrews 12 vs. 1 You will start getting well when getting well is what matters most to you. Let your desperation drive you beyond concern about the opinions of others. As long as you are more conscious of people than you are of God, you will never get what you need. When Hannah, Samuel’s mother, prayed in the temple, there was so much locked inside her that when she began to pray and pour her heart out, Eli thought she was drunk (see 1 Samuel 1 vs. 13). God is raising up people who will confound us – radical Christians. Like those on the day of Pentecost, they were hungry for God. They will raise the roof to get to Jesus. They had carefully laid plans, and cry like blind Bartimaeus, “Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me” (Mark 10 vs. 47). When you are blind, all that matters is receiving your sight. When it looks like there’s no way out fo...

DO TI NOW

May 11th – Capsule 11 TOPIC : DO IT NOW BIBLE TEXT : Redeeming the time, because the days are evil – Ephesians 5 vs. 16 How many times have you said, “I will do it tomorrow?” sometimes you put somethings off because you don’t think you know enough, can’t do it well enough. The fact is, there is no magic age at which excellence emerges and quality suddenly surfaces. Thomas Jefferson was 33 when he drafted the Declaration of Independence. Charles Dickens was 24 when he began his Pickwick Papers, and 25 when he wrote Oliver Twist. Newton was 24 when he formulated The Law of Gravity. A second danger is to think that creativity and invention belong to the young. Not so! Emmanuel Kant wrote his finest philosophical work at age 74. Verdi at 80 produced crossing the Bar, and Michelangelo completed his greatest work at 87, Moses was 80 when he led God’s people out of Egypt and 120 when he got to Canaan. Seize the day! Redeem the new moments of your life. Because the time and age ...
