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.

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...

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...
