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 “drop in if you have time”, He said “dwell”. Take up residence, Move in and set up a house. It is all about your desire. David said, “One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after” (Psalm 27 vs. 4)


Prayer: Lord, let there be transformation in my life and everything that needs your touch in my life in Jesus name.

Insight: Today, make up your mind to rearrange things in your life, so that you can spend more time in His presence. If you do, it will show, because it rubs off!

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...

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

The Song of Victory

DATE 7th March, 2023 TOPIC The Song of Victory LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 15:1 KJV Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the Lord, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. When God turns situations around for our good we become like them that dream and our mouths are filled with laughter and a new song. On that day Israel was liberated and totally delivered from the hands of the Egyptian tasks masters and Pharaoh's cruelty by the victorious hand of God. Heaven was on their side, as the sword of the LORD pierced through the red sea and it parted making the waters form two pillars and a passage of dry ground for the children of God to walk through. The most amazing thing that happened that day was how God worked miracles and war tactics. He carried the Israelites that were trekking through the passage safely and sustained the Egyptian soldiers and riders with no pa...
