PATIENCE

May 19th – Capsule 19

TOPIC: PATIENCE

BIBLE TEXT: For ye have need of patience, that after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise – Hebrews 10 vs 36

A believer must equip him or herself with this virtue from on the tree of the Holy Spirit. Without it, man becomes a monster, desperate and misled. To walk in the will of God Our Father, you must seek righteousness and in doing so, you need patience from the Lord and it starts the moment you trust Christ Jesus and His written Word. 

The above scripture reveals this truth, that there is a promise to be received through patience. Our Lord Jesus Christ said, ‘Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? – Luke 18 vs 8b. This question is to challenge every believer to wait patiently for the promise of Our Lord Jesus Christ and not lose hope in the Word of God.


Many failing Christians have lost hope and many will still lose hope, but the Word of life says that they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength (Isaiah 40 vs 31a). When you wait on God patiently you become renewed in Christ. Also in waiting on God you must be prepared like the wise virgins in Matthew 25, you must wait righteously, and in the fear of the Lord. Because of their consistency and patience, they met the bridegroom while the impatient 5, missed him.

In waiting on God, you must study the Word of God and activate faith with actions on everyday life activities.


Prayer: O Lord, help me to wait patiently on all your promises in my life and through your Word in Jesus name.

Insight: Patience is a wonderful fruit from the tree of the Holy Spirit, you can receive it in Him everyday.

THINKING GOD’S WAY

JULY 9TH – CAPSULE 9  TOPIC: THINKING GOD’S WAY  BIBLE TEXT: EPHESIANS 4VS23 – Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. How you process information and arrive at conclusions must always be subject to the will of God. Listen, “……….be made new in the attitude of your minds”. When you first start thinking Gods way, it will feel strange to you. It may even feel like a “put-on”. But it’s not. It works like this: you have to  (a). Practice being nice until you automatically become nice.  (b). Practice going to church on Sunday, until going anywhere else seems strange to you.  (c). Practice giving to God until it be comes as natural to you as shopping at the mall.  (d). Practice speaking the truth until even the smallest lie tastes bad in your mouth.  (e). Practice speaking kindness until every cynical, negative word is purged from your vocabulary. Its all a matter of practice! But you ask, “ isn’t that hypocritical – feeling one way and speaking an...

I Know Him

Date - January 25th, 2022 Topic - I Know Him Bible Tex t - Then [Jesus] asked them, “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”Matthew 16:15-16 How can people describe the ocean when they have not experienced it? How would they explain the waves that crash against the rocks or the shifting of the sand as the tide tugs at the shoreline? Are they able to put into words how the sand feels between their toes or describe the majesty of an endless blue horizon? Until they have taken a dip in the salty, white-frothed ocean, their descriptions would be limited. Perhaps that is why Jesus asked the disciples to define their faith in him on a personal level rather than rely on what others had to say about him. Jesus challenged them to base their definition of who he was on the reality of what they had seen, heard, and experienced about him.  Today, many stand in public platforms and attempt to define Jesus as a good man, a teach...

IT RUBS OFF

AUGUST 9th - CAPSULE 9 TOPIC: IT RUBS OFF BIBLE TEXT: Exodus 34 vs. 29 – His face glowed from being in the presence of God. You can only talk convincingly about the God you know, the one you’ve spent time with. Any other God belongs in a theology book, and you will have a hard time selling Him. When Moses came down from the mountain, his face shone. He had been in God’s presence, and when you’ve been there it shows in the way you look, the way you walk and talk, the way you treat your family, the way you spend your money and the way you respond to hurting people. It rubs off!   Paul Cain says “most of us are as close to God as we want to be”. Think about it “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you” (James 4 vs. 8). How could you possibly be the same when you’ve been with Him? He transforms everything He touches. Listen – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91 vs. 1). He didn’t say “visit” or...
