GOD’S WORD IS PURE

AUGUST 28th - CAPSULE 28

TOPIC: GOD’S WORD IS PURE

BIBLE TEXT: Psalm 12 vs. 6 – The words of the Lord are pure words, like silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.


Today’s passage is an observation the Psalmist makes references to what was said in Psalm 12 vs. 5 and in opposition to the word of the wicked men in Psalm 12 vs. 4 which are deceitful, sinful and impure. The Holy Scriptures are the words of God and they are pure and holy, free from all human mixtures, and from all frauds and deceits. They are the Scripture of truth. They are the promises of the word of God, and they are firm and stable, and always dependable, ever fulfilling, being yea and amen in Christ Jesus. 

The doctrines of it are the words of God, which is sincere milk of the word, pure and incorruptible, as it is from an incorruptible supreme being. If truthfully, sincerely and properly dispensed by faithful ministers and they are according to godliness, and tend to encourage and promote purity and holiness of heart and life, hearers and beneficiaries will definitely experience that purity in their lives, homes, institutions and the society at large – (Proverbs 30 vs. 5)

God’s words are pure in the sense that every spoken word from the scripture is good for human consumption. Child of God, it is only in the word of God that you have pureness of life. Let no man deceive you with strange doctrines. The word of God is completely and perfectly pure, clear of all dross whatever, as silver, so many times tried yet, not found defective, so proven to be and so the words of God are not only pure but very pure – (Psalm 119 vs. 140)


Prayer: Lord help me to accept your word sincerely in Jesus name.

Insight: Live a purely Godly life.

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...

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...

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...
