WHEN YOU ARE FOLLOWING HIM, YOU CAN FACE ANYTHING

JUNE 17TH – CAPSULE 17

TOPIC: WHEN YOU ARE FOLLOWING HIM, YOU CAN FACE ANYTHING

BIBLE TEXT: JOHN 10 VS 4 – And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

The Israelites enjoyed God’s protection on all sides, as the LORD went before them as a sun and a shield, and no good thing was ever withheld from them. He gave them victories also, over nations and kingdoms. We must understand that following Jesus is the only way to survive and succeed in life.

The Egyptians pursued the children of Israel to enslave them back after their liberation from years of captivity and bondage but the Lord was with them as their guide. When your direction is the person of the Holy Spirit, all you need to do is to follow and nothing will be able to hinder you or stop you - Exodus 14 vs 19. Living with Christ is so wonderful and glorious with Jesus as our Chief Shepherd guiding us safely, directing us, instructing us and doing us good all the way. As a child of God you don’t need to fear. II Tim. 1 vs 7 – God has not given you the spirit of fear.

All He is saying to you is follow him as Lord and Saviour and He’ll go ahead of you. Imagine a mighty force greater than huge trucks and it starts clearing the way for you and fighting all your battles. No mountain too high or valley too deep that he can’t reach, even death has no power over him when he's leading the way.

For 40 years the children of Israel walked through the wilderness and Christ was their source and supplier of basic amenities and provisions as well as spiritual necessities. They drunk the water from Him and ate manna from above, not one of them was feable or paralyzed for he sent his angels to take charge over them.

Prayer: Lord Jesus I will follow you for the rest of my life.

Insight: Let Jesus lead the way in your life and nothing will be able to stand in your way.

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...

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – 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 there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
