TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE

JULY 3RD – CAPSULE 3

TOPIC: TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE

BIBLE TEXT: Acts 5 vs 29 - ….We ought to obey God rather than men.

No matter how timid you are, don’t allow anybody to dominate or direct your life. Get back into the driver's seat and take the wheel, for only you know where God has told you to go!

Too often our actions are dictated not by a sense of purpose, but by a need to please. We care so much about what certain people think, that with every step we take, we are looking over our shoulder to see whether they are smiling or frowning. Hear this clearly: your first responsibility is to please God, not people. In the end, you are accountable to Him alone (Romans 14 vs 12).

Listen, “You shall have no other gods before me” ( Exodus 20 vs 2 NIV). But you say, “I don’t worship idols” You do when you dedicate your life to impressing people, instead of obeying God. But who am I to assert myself? You ask. Who are you not to? As a Child of God, your first responsibility is to please your Father and your second is to live your life to its fullest!

Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me to live to please you.

Insight: Let your actions be guided by a sense of purpose.

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...

FELLOWSHIP

Date 📅 24th November, 2022 Topic Fellowship (koinonia) Living Scripture Matthew 18:20 KJV For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Wherever believers are gathered in the name of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, there the Lord comes to fellowship. In heaven the celestials cease not to give due worship to God and the LAMB of God, it's a constant tradition of divine communion and fellowship. It is not every gathering that men calls Jesus Christ that he attends, the scripture states that these candidates for fellowship must be in the name of Jesus Christ. They must be saved to even think of gathering for the purpose of intimacy and fellowship. Two thieves were hung up on the cross with the person of Christ, but only one that repented and believed in the Kingdom of Heaven and Christ, that received attention from Jesus. To gather in fellowship with the Lord as a family this morning, we must all be in Him. Our devotion will not be c...
