TAKING POSSESSION

JULY 8TH – CAPSULE 8 

TOPIC: TAKING POSSESSION! 

BIBLE TEXT: JOSHUA 18 Vs. 3 – How long will you wait before you begin to take possession. [NIV] 


God promised the children of Israel the land, and Joshua led them right to it. Yet seven of The tribes of Israel had done nothing to possess it. Is that where you are at today? Just because you know your destiny, and understand what God’s promised you, doesn’t mean you will ever fulfill it! 

The old testament Saul might have been one of the Israel’s greatest Kings, but instead David took his place. Saul died tragically on Mount Gilboa, with the word captioning his life, ‘I have played the fool and have erred exceedingly’ [1 Samuel 26vs21]. But what a difference we find in the new testament Saul, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course” [2 Timothy 4vs7]. Your destiny is determined by your decisions; so seek God and consult His word before you make them. 

Perhaps you are saying “But I am too busy”. Doing what? God doesn’t only reward your efforts, He rewards your obedience! Build your life on what’s important, not what’s urgent. Prayer may not seem important in the moment, but in the final analysis, nothing is more important. Getting into Gods word may not seem urgent, but in  the light of your destiny, can you think of anything more important?  reward your efforts, He rewards your obedience! Build your life on what’s important, not what’s urgent. Prayer may not seem important in the moment, but in the final analysis, nothing is more important. Getting into Gods word may not seem urgent, but in  the light of your destiny, can you think of anything more important? Set your priorities according to your destiny, and you will suddenly begin to see what really matters in your life today.


Prayer: In the name of Jesus, I begin to possess my possession. Where the soul of my feet touches, I possess.

Insight: How long will you wait? Possession is yours take it now!

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...

I Know Him

Date - January 25th, 2022 Topic - I Know Him Bible Tex t - Then [Jesus] asked them, “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”Matthew 16:15-16 How can people describe the ocean when they have not experienced it? How would they explain the waves that crash against the rocks or the shifting of the sand as the tide tugs at the shoreline? Are they able to put into words how the sand feels between their toes or describe the majesty of an endless blue horizon? Until they have taken a dip in the salty, white-frothed ocean, their descriptions would be limited. Perhaps that is why Jesus asked the disciples to define their faith in him on a personal level rather than rely on what others had to say about him. Jesus challenged them to base their definition of who he was on the reality of what they had seen, heard, and experienced about him.  Today, many stand in public platforms and attempt to define Jesus as a good man, a teach...

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...
