GET UP AND FIGHT

JUNE 12TH – CAPSULE 12

TOPIC: GET UP AND FIGHT 

BIBLE TEXT: 1 TIM. 6 VS 12 – Fight the good of faith (in the conflict with evil; take hold of the eternal life which you were called, and (for which) you made the good confession (of faith) in the presence of many witnesses. [AMP] 

Get up and do what’s right (what is righteous), ensure that your battles are against the evil forces fighting your faith and not quarrels and dispute because of things of this world. Many today fight over properties, other people’s wives (widows) and more whereas the battle for righteous living is ignored and forgotten amongst men.

Jesus addressed these unnecessary things that confuses the children of God and how to avoid covetousness the spirit behind wrong cravings and fightings. Luke 12 vs 13 -14 – And one of the company said unto him, master speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me. And He said to them, men who made me a judge or a divider over you? When you  fight over wrong battles Christ pays no attention to you. 

Many are lazy today at the place of prayer and fellowship with God, because of the misdirections in our hearts and lustful purposes. God wants us to fight the good fight – notice the word "good", which means what’s relevant and in the will of God. Apostle Paul fought a good fight of faith, over perils, thieves, darkness, the Jews, gentiles and much more and God gave him victory on all sides. 


Prayer: Father, help me fight the good fight of faith in Jesus name.

Insight: The good fight of faith brings out your reward.

DO TI NOW

May 11th – Capsule 11 TOPIC : DO IT NOW BIBLE TEXT : Redeeming the time, because the days are evil – Ephesians 5 vs. 16 How many times have you said, “I will do it tomorrow?” sometimes you put somethings off because you don’t think you know enough, can’t do it well enough. The fact is, there is no magic age at which excellence emerges and quality suddenly surfaces. Thomas Jefferson was 33 when he drafted the Declaration of Independence. Charles Dickens was 24 when he began his Pickwick Papers, and 25 when he wrote Oliver Twist. Newton was 24 when he formulated The Law of Gravity. A second danger is to think that creativity and invention belong to the young. Not so! Emmanuel Kant wrote his finest philosophical work at age 74. Verdi at 80 produced crossing the Bar, and Michelangelo completed his greatest work at 87, Moses was 80 when he led God’s people out of Egypt and 120 when he got to Canaan. Seize the day! Redeem the new moments of your life. Because the time and age ...

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...

NOW

Date 📅 18th October, 2022 Topic NOW Living Scripture Hebrews 11:1,7 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. [7] By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. Now we begin to walk in the ways of faith and truth as our fathers in faith and mighty men of old and just as they witnessed the glory of God first hand so shall we if we act now. The perfect example is Noah and the ark, a man of grace and wisdom. The world was stained with disobedience, sinful ways and thick immoralities. And God decided to wipe the inhabitants of the earth with a great flood such as have never been before and even after. The heavens where ready to open the flood gates and the earth to let out her waters. When God spoke to Noah, he acted immediately and finished the ark on time and he eva...
