LISTENING PRAYER

AUGUST 24th - CAPSULE 24

TOPIC: LISTENING PRAYER

BIBLE TEXT: Psalm 46 vs. 10 – Be still and know that I am God.


Jesus did a lot of praying. On more than one occasion He prayed all night, yet few of His words were recorded. Could it be that HE did more listening than talking? And when His prayer was recorded, what was it? “Father . . . . . . Not my will, but thine be done” (Luke 22 vs. 42).

When Jesus prayed HE surrendered totally to the will of God. He believe He would automatically be given two things for which we all keep asking direction and ability to deal with things. Thank God for the revelation of who we are in Christ, and our authority as believers before God and before men. But recently God has been letting me know that there’s more to prayer than coming “boldly unto the throne” (Hebrews 4 vs. 16).

That kind of prayer is about what you want, but this kind is about what He wants. Now, since He sees the whole picture clearly, and since He designed the plan to begin with, don’t you think it’s time to get quiet before Him, so that HE can tell you all about it?


Prayer: Father Lord, help me to know how to pray and what to pray.

Lord, I want to listen well at the place of prayer, give me the grace.

In the order of Jesus Christ our Lord, I surrender all to your will Father for direction and ability to deal with issues of life.

Insight: BE still and let God be God in your life.

Capsule One - (WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY?)

May 1st – Capsule 1 TOPIC: WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY? BIBLE TEXT: Let us lay aside every weight and sin which easily beset us … Hebrews 12 vs. 1 You will start getting well when getting well is what matters most to you. Let your desperation drive you beyond concern about the opinions of others. As long as you are more conscious of people than you are of God, you will never get what you need. When Hannah, Samuel’s mother, prayed in the temple, there was so much locked inside her that when she began to pray and pour her heart out, Eli thought she was drunk (see 1 Samuel 1 vs. 13). God is raising up people who will confound us – radical Christians. Like those on the day of Pentecost, they were hungry for God. They will raise the roof to get to Jesus. They had carefully laid plans, and cry like blind Bartimaeus, “Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me” (Mark 10 vs. 47). When you are blind, all that matters is receiving your sight. When it looks like there’s no way out fo...

THE GRACE OF GOD

Date 📅 26th October, 2022 Topic The Grace of God Living Scripture 1 Corinthians 15:10 KJV But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. The grace of God is very important to everyone both saved and unsaved though as many as believe in Christ Jesus receives of the grace and truth at work in the Lord. This is what sustains us as children of God throughout our lifetime here on earth. God's grace for the world is general but limited and that for His children comes only in Christ Jesus, for as many that want to partake of this kind of grace must be born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit. This brought about the testimony of brother Saul turned Apostle Paul who testified to be the least of all the Apostles and disciples of Christ. He was a persecutor of the gospel a child of Abraham under the common grace but not under the g...
