KNOW WHAT YOU NEED ( KEEP NOT SILENT)

JUNE 27TH – CAPSULE 27 

TOPIC: KNOW WHAT YOU NEED ( KEEP NOT SILENT) 

BIBLE TEXT: MARK 10 VS 47-51 – And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of  David, have mercy on me. …… And Jesus answered and said unto him, what wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.


A certain blind man sat by the high way just outside the city of Jericho begging for alms, and on a blessed day he heard that it was Jesus Christ of Nazareth that was passing by his begging corner. Now this man was poor and blind at the same time but still found time to listen to the gospel of Christ from evangelists and missionaries who regularly passed by preparing the way for the Lord to walk through in glory.

This blind man heard that it was Jesus, which means he was taught about the same Jesus and the hour of manifestation had come for him to receive from Christ Jesus. He began to cry out (aloud) to draw the attention of Jesus, by saying “son of David , have mercy on me”. The blind man knew what to pray for, because he believed the report of the Lord and so he directed his strength through prayers of truth to receive an answer that satisfies every need. 

Many told him that he was a noise maker, in service, many said to him behave yourself and do as we do but he ignored  their counsel and cried out the more because he know what he needed from Christ Jesus. And he got the attention of the Lord and his need was met because of his faith. Don’t let the words of men cripple your faith, don’t let your situation silence your opportunities, rise up in faith and pursue your needs in Christ Jesus.


Prayer: Thou Son of the living God have mercy on me and look upon my needs in Jesus name.

Insight: Knowing what you need from Jesus Christ, increase your heart of prayer.

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...
