THE FAVOUR OF GOD

JULY 30TH – CAPSULE 30

TOPIC: THE FAVOUR OF GOD

BIBLE TEXT: 
GENESIS 26VS24 – The LORD appeared to him the same night and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father; do not be afraid for I am with you. I will bless you and favour you, and multiply your descendants, for my servant Abraham”.


The favour of God is a blessing that speaks volumes when released upon an individual. Father Abraham was blessed by God’s favour and all his children by blood and faith are partakers of this glorious blessing. God’s love releases favour on those with a submissive and meek hearts. 

Isaac was blessed by God with favour and the whole land had no choice but to bless him because a spiritual magnet was placed upon him. Everyone around him knew this because the glory of God was upon him.

Luke 2vs52 – the way Christ choose to live brought about the favour of God upon him. “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature and in favour with God and man”. Notice his increase came from God first before men yielded to him willingly. If you lack the favour of God, you will never obtain true favour here on earth. 

When God is your source of favour, you'll stay relevant and have peace. But when you seek favour from men first you'll end up frustrated and disappointed in their promises and words but God never fails.


Prayer: Lord, I need your favour in my life in the name of Jesus Christ.

Insight: God’s favour sets you apart and distinguishes you amongst men.

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...
