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.

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...

Heaven

Date 📅 25th November, 2022 Topic Heaven (Trading Talents) Living Scripture Matthew 25:14 KJV For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. The Kingdom of Heaven was described by our Lord Jesus Christ in various descriptive narratives pointing out the hidden truth in several parables. Heaven contains important life lessons on the purpose of every child of God here on earth and finding it makes the will of God visible to us and achievable here on earth. This morning we see Heaven from the business man perspective, enriching and equipping His own servants with goods that are all profitable. Heaven is real and Christ Jesus only invest in His own servants. God doesn't bless a mess, He works with as many who believes in Christ Jesus His Son who died for the world. God instructs His Son to deposit into every child of His talents that will favor them, show that they are useful and can work with Heaven....

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
