GRACIOUS WORDS

JUNE 15TH – CAPSULE 15 

TOPIC: GRACIOUS WORDS 

BIBLE TEXT: COLOSSIANS 4 VS 6 – When you speak the word, speak it gracefully (as it seasoned with salt), so you will know how to respond to everyone rightly (The voice). 

Communication is very vital in our  world today, we all need to pass one information or the other across and the way and manner we communicate it matters a lot. For every message to be received by the receiver, he/she must accept what is being transmitted either via oral conversation or via technology and process it to be able to comprehend the available information. 

Seasoned words attracts the attention of the heart, as Christ taught the multitudes and his disciples they all listened to His voice because he spoke gracefully. Imagine if Christ went about insulting everyone and condemning them rather than teaching and preaching the truth then no man would have heard Him nor accepted Him into their lives and homes. The Bible describes in Matthew 7 vs 22 that the people were astonished at His teaching. 

As believers we must learn to speak graciously wherever we go, knowing that our conversation may be light to others in darkness and that we should not speak out of ignorance, to avoid being rude or sound disrespectful or arrogant before any man. And when we speak gracious words all men will know that we are children of the kingdom of God. 

Hold on to this scripture at all times when you desire to speak to others; Proverbs 16:24 (TPT)
Nothing is more appealing than speaking beautiful, life-giving words. For they release sweetness to our souls and inner healing to our spirits.


Prayer: Dear Father, help me speak gracious words every day of my life in Jesus name. 

Insight: Think properly and ensure you taste your words before communicating.

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?

Date - December 19th, 2021 Topic - MARY, DID YOU KNOW? Bible Text - But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.” - Luke 1:30-31 If God had asked the women of Israel who wanted to be the mother of the Messiah, every one of them would have raised her hand. If they had known what that privilege would actually involve—becoming pregnant before marriage, enduring terrible gossip, watching helplessly as their Son was mocked, ridiculed, tortured and crucified—those hands would have come down in a hurry. Mary certainly didn’t volunteer for the job. And she was stunned to discover she’d been selected for such an important role. She handled the extraordinary situation with grace and humility. She asked one question to help her understand God’s plan, then agreed to it immediately. God has a plan for each of us. Ours may not be as earth-shattering as Mary’s. Ou...

Inside Jesus

DATE 28th June, 2023 TOPIC Inside Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE John 15:4 KJV Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. Inside Jesus Christ the Lamb of God is where we must dwell. Just like a baby is carried in the womb of her mother for months, so must all God's children follow. The anchor scripture reveals that we must abide inside the cleft or riven side of Jesus Christ just as He also dwells inside us. No child of God or minister should ever think that he or she is sufficient or has attained a certain height in Christ Jesus to stand alone or even abide by themselves.  Our productivity of bearing fruits in this world either by evangelism, good deeds, love or any action can only be possible when we are intimate with Christ as He is with us. Without Christ Jesus inside us we cannot or it is impossible to grow spiritually and physically. Inside Christ Jesus contains all life's resources and...

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...
