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.

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

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...

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
