HE MUST INCREASE

JUNE 25TH – CAPSULE 25 

TOPIC: HE MUST INCREASE 

BIBLE TEXT: JOHN 3 VS 30 – He must increase but I must decrease.


John the Baptist channeled those words out of a life of submission to the will of God. And this light, all believers must walk by also to receive more of Christ in us. Many out there today are corrupted with a spiritual virus called “self” where all a man thinks of is him or herself always. Such individuals are presented as self righteous and can’t receive more from the Lord because he already “knows it all” and many are full of “themselves” and not Christ or His word.

The testimony of John the Baptist during his ministry days, speaks not of himself but of He who cometh from the Lord, one who is greater than him and whose sandals spiritually and physically, he is unworthy to tie or untie. This brings so much craving in the hearts of the hearers to readily hunger for a sight and a moment with this Christ that John spoke of in messages and sermons.

 As a child of God or a minister of His word out there, do you advertise yourself or teach the gospel of Christ? For Christ must “increase” – this is a great word, Jesus must increase in our homes with less of I did it, and more of Christ, in marriages, in schools, in firms and organizations and in churches today. Let the people know Jesus Christ than the details of yourself. 


Prayer: Our Father in heaven, take more of me and let me have more of Christ Jesus in me.

Insight: For Christ to increase, you must be submissive and willing to talk to Jesus 24/7.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a...

THE EASY WAY

Date 📅 23rd September, 2022 Topic The Easy Way Living Scripture Matthew 7:13 KJV 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 thereat: There are many ways and roads in life both spiritually and physically but the paths we choose to walk on determines our destination at the end. This world is full of sin and disobedience and selfishness, it has a wide gate welcoming everyone and it's paths are broad to gather much people in order to destroy their lives. Lying has become part of the way of so many today even some part of the church lie and claim it's the easy way out of troubles and confrontations. The easy way or short cut as it is often mentioned is not the way of life neither the way of righteousness. Looking for the easy way is looking for death, it is an invitation to false spirits that corrupts and pollutes. Let us seek to know the true path that leads to life and life in...

PECULIAR PEOPLE

Date 📅 31st August, 2022 Topic Peculiar People  Living Scripture 1 Peter 2:9 KJV But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: In the beginning God the Father was and is and is to come for a particular kind of people as He once did with Adam and eve in Eden. He created the heavens and the earth and everything that lives and breathes. And by the power of His Word He made man in His own image and likeness. Therefore man was made right from the beginning to be peculiar and fit for the glory of God. There was no plan in God's holy palm to reduce man to a pauper, it was our sinful ways and disobedience that caused us to fall short of this beautiful inheritance our first father once partook of. A peculiar People stands different, out of the ordinary, unusual and unpredictable from a specific clan or place. The scripture reads t...
