HOW WHITE IS YOUR ROBE

JUNE 21TH – CAPSULE

TOPIC: HOW WHITE IS YOUR ROBE 

BIBLE TEXT: MARK 9 VS 2-3 – And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them. And His raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.


Every individual is decorated with a garment and the garment on you shows your true identity and state in the presence of God spiritually. A mad man, spiritually will be on a dirty garment, a sinful man will also have on him or herself a dirty or spotted garment. Zech. 3vs3 – Now Joshua was clothed (spiritually) with filthy garments, and stood before the angel of the LORD. You cannot hide your true nature or identity from the Lord, you may succeed in deceiving others but God sees us clearly.

Jesus Christ revealed himself to three of his disciples, who were privileged to behold the glory of God on the mountain Of Transfiguration. His spiritual identity was seen as white as snow that no dry cleaner or laundry man on earth with the strongest bleaching agent could perform a washing session to make it that clean. 

As a Christian you have a robe on you, which Christ Jesus presented to you on the day of salvation. It is called righteousness. When you walk like Christ in obedience to the will of the Father without little besetting sins, you'll appear in white robes. Many children of God today have had the privilege of seeing God’s anointed servants in such a state via dreams, visions or an encounter of glory and some beheld the glory and some beheld the Lord. 

How white is your robe beloveth? Are you still secretly involved in sinful acts or are you washed daily with the blood of Christ? It took mercy for Joshua the high priest to have a change of raiment. Examine yourself today, are you with spots or looking filthy? Or are you white as snow?


Prayer: Dear Father, I seek your mercy and your blood to wash me clean as I confess my sins in Jesus name.

Insight: Righteous living is the only way to be made white as snow.

THINKING GOD’S WAY

JULY 9TH – CAPSULE 9  TOPIC: THINKING GOD’S WAY  BIBLE TEXT: EPHESIANS 4VS23 – Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. How you process information and arrive at conclusions must always be subject to the will of God. Listen, “……….be made new in the attitude of your minds”. When you first start thinking Gods way, it will feel strange to you. It may even feel like a “put-on”. But it’s not. It works like this: you have to  (a). Practice being nice until you automatically become nice.  (b). Practice going to church on Sunday, until going anywhere else seems strange to you.  (c). Practice giving to God until it be comes as natural to you as shopping at the mall.  (d). Practice speaking the truth until even the smallest lie tastes bad in your mouth.  (e). Practice speaking kindness until every cynical, negative word is purged from your vocabulary. Its all a matter of practice! But you ask, “ isn’t that hypocritical – feeling one way and speaking an...

I Know Him

Date - January 25th, 2022 Topic - I Know Him Bible Tex t - Then [Jesus] asked them, “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”Matthew 16:15-16 How can people describe the ocean when they have not experienced it? How would they explain the waves that crash against the rocks or the shifting of the sand as the tide tugs at the shoreline? Are they able to put into words how the sand feels between their toes or describe the majesty of an endless blue horizon? Until they have taken a dip in the salty, white-frothed ocean, their descriptions would be limited. Perhaps that is why Jesus asked the disciples to define their faith in him on a personal level rather than rely on what others had to say about him. Jesus challenged them to base their definition of who he was on the reality of what they had seen, heard, and experienced about him.  Today, many stand in public platforms and attempt to define Jesus as a good man, a teach...

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...
