WHO IS BEFORE YOU?

May 28th – Capsule 28

TOPIC: WHO IS BEFORE YOU?

BIBLE TEXT: I have set the Lord always before me: because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved – Psalm 16 vs 8

We get seemingly carried away in worship when we reverence God with this popular song: ‘I’ll put you in front, in front of my melody, You are all that matters'.
The song went further to say: ‘I’ll make room for two, You and I Jesus, You are all that matters.
The Psalmist says: I have set the Lord always before me; I have given the Lord a permanent position always before me, and then he added, because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved; because He is beside me; to hold me, to carry me, to comfort me, to talk to me, to counsel me.

Who is before you? The Psalmist made a solemn decision to put the Lord before him; and afterwards, the Lord settled at his right hand.
Starting a new day this morning, what have you placed before your day? It is good to plan ahead. We plan so much and forget to involve Jesus in our plans. We wake up in the morning, straight to the bathroom; to the kitchen; doing chores. That’s why when the day looks rough and bumpy, there’s no Word in you to redeem the day and the storm overwhelm us and sweeps us away. 

Your job is before you, your spouse is before you, investment, office schedule, money, business, clients and customers, relatives have all clouded our minds, but no place for God. Can your money give you joy? Will your relative be there always to encourage you? There are things that pertain to life and destiny that can only be yours when The Custodian is before you. Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established – Proverbs 16 vs 3.


Prayer: Go on your knees and commit your day into the Master's hands, thank Him for yesterday and also thank Him because He is in charge of your tomorrow.

Insight: Do not forget to repeat this process tomorrow morning.

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...

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...

The Price Is Never Right

DATE July 15th, 2022 TOPIC The Price Is Never Right BIBLE TEXT Proverbs 19:11 TPT A wise person demonstrates patience, for mercy means holding your tongue. When you are insulted, be quick to forgive and forget it, for you are virtuous when you overlook an offense. When we place an item on a scale, it is the moment of truth, whether we are measuring fruit, a bouncing baby, precious metals, or our own body weight. The scales measure loss or gain with unflinching accuracy. How do we weigh the value of self-control? It might be measured by calculating the losses. What is the cost when we unleash anger without restraint? Self-control is the act of hesitating and counting the cost before we speak a word or carry out an action. How many times have we fallen at the Savior’s feet and asked him to cover our shortcomings with his grace? Each time he has forgiven us and brought us back into fellowship with him. Counting other’s wrongs seems natural—until we measure them against our own...
