THE TOUCH OF FAITH

May 30th – Capsule 30

TOPIC: THE TOUCH OF FAITH

BIBLE SCRIPTURE: MARK 5 VS 24 – 34, LUKE 8 VS 40 – 56

The scripture above talks about the steps the woman with issue of blood took to get her permanent healing.

The Bible says the woman had suffered many things in the hands of men, her first step was:
1. Trust in men and their knowledge: the woman knew people, the best doctors, doctors that had their degrees and years of practices in advanced medicine with years of medical experience, but no supernatural experience. She trusted in their knowledge, but it grew worse. Putting your trust in men and their knowledge will limit God in your life. Men must have given you false hopes and disappointed you, it is time to turn to God. Psalm 118 vs 8 says It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence men and princes. It is good to have wonderful knowledgeable people around you, but let God’s word guide you,, not their principles.

2. Trust in riches: the woman spent all, she spent all, yet the problem persist. This sickness took all from her. Has that challenge, illness, problem taken all from you, it is time to turn to God. In God, there is no waste of resources, His blessings maketh rich and adds no sorrow to it. 

This woman heard about Jesus, the great healer, she believed from her heart that of she could touch this man, she will be healed and she laid wait for Him, she looked for Him, found Him, even with people thronging Him, she touched Him and behold, she was healed. He felt her touch, because it was a touch of faith.

What has taken life away from you? Taken freedom? Taken your time? Taken your hope? Yet, it only grew worse. Now you are already familiar with the Jesus that healed this woman, He is still alive-  He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is not jus the healer, he is a deliverer, waymaker, miracle worker, promise keeper, He is reliable. He is everything good and wonderful. Touch Him this morning with FAITH!

Insight: Only a touch of faith can make a difference.

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...
