PURE IN HEART

May 15th – Capsule 15

TOPIC: PURE IN HEART

BIBLE TEXT: Finally brethren, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things – Philippians 4 vs. 8.

The bible reveals an encounter of a man with a pure heart (righteous) in accordance to the will of God. This man was also a disciple of Christ, he was recognized as one with a pure heart. He was educated, sincere and honest in all his doing. Amongst the twelve apostles of Christ, Nathaniel or Bartholomew was much respected. The purity of his heart gave him honor amongst men – John 1 vs. 45 -51. 

To be pure as a Christian, you must be honest and a man of integrity, living for Christ at all times in your place of work, business, school, marriage and all other endeavors. The Bible reveals this fact for all those who want to walk in purity – Matthew 5 vs. 6: Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. This fact remains true, only a Christian with a pure Spirit (heart) than can relate with God spiritually and manifest physically. 

Psalm 24 vs. 1 – 5; 15 vs. 1 – 5 reveals what a believer must do and live on to enjoy the presence of God. Judas Iscariot and Nathaniel were the most educated Disciples of Christ but as you can perceive, education is not purity, because Judas betrayed Christ because his heart was corrupted, while Nathaniel’s heart was pure. Live to please the Lord today by letting go of pains, hatred and all forms of hurt and defilements. Forgiveness assists a man into purity. A pure heart possesses the grace for integrity.

Christ testifies of him, "Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! - John 1 vs. 47." This informs us of the spiritual scanning system whenever we present ourselves before the LORD that gives perfect scans of every soul's purity service before Our Father in Heaven. You can live in purity too, when you give all to the service of the higher calling in Jesus Christ as a child of God.


Prayer: Lord Jesus, I repent from my ways and I ask that you cleanse my heart from all pollutions and impurities in Jesus name.

Insight: To be pure is to live righteously and stand with the truth in Christ Jesus.

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...

FELLOWSHIP

Date 📅 24th November, 2022 Topic Fellowship (koinonia) Living Scripture Matthew 18:20 KJV For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Wherever believers are gathered in the name of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, there the Lord comes to fellowship. In heaven the celestials cease not to give due worship to God and the LAMB of God, it's a constant tradition of divine communion and fellowship. It is not every gathering that men calls Jesus Christ that he attends, the scripture states that these candidates for fellowship must be in the name of Jesus Christ. They must be saved to even think of gathering for the purpose of intimacy and fellowship. Two thieves were hung up on the cross with the person of Christ, but only one that repented and believed in the Kingdom of Heaven and Christ, that received attention from Jesus. To gather in fellowship with the Lord as a family this morning, we must all be in Him. Our devotion will not be c...
