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.

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...

Breakfast with Jesus

DATE 24th June, 2023 TOPIC Breakfast with Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 65:4 KJV Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. The Psalmist was a peculiar man and one that feared the LORD and walked in the paths of righteousness. In his meditation and Psalms, he learnt to dine with Jesus Christ early and through Psalms, from the 63rd to the 66th, he found a way to breakfast with Jesus. The first contact we should have everyday is Jesus Christ, to receive of His glorious satisfaction early, contentment and to be filled with the goodness and mercy He gives His children daily. When a child eats with his parents there's that joy and peace within, such comfort and full assurance. Jesus Christ always ate with our Heavenly Father while He was here on earth, He sought after the LORD daily and was satisfied with the glory and goodness of the Father. Each...

Forgiveness of Sins

DATE - April 7th, 2022 TOPIC - Forgiveness of Sins BIBLE TEXT - Acts 5:31 AMP God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior and Deliverer, in order to grant repentance to Israel, and [to grant] forgiveness of sins. Apostle Peter stood tall before the council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) to speak with boldness about a God who Saves and sets free any sinner from the power of sin. As a man who has been shown mercy though a man once filled with sinful ways, the Holy Spirit quickened him through his personal testimony of experiencing true forgiveness of sins before the Jewish High Court. Peter was a local fisherman with no knowledge of the gospel truth, who lived as he pleased. Until he encountered Jesus when Christ was walking by the sea of Galilee and he spotted Simon Peter who was in his boat struggling to catch a few fishes for days. Like many out there today who are living in sin and still struggling to make ends meet, Jesus is passing through that street, area...
