WHEN YOU CAN’T UNDERSTAND TRUST

AUGUST 21st - CAPSULE 21

TOPIC: WHEN YOU CAN’T UNDERSTAND TRUST

BIBLE TEXT: Deuteronomy 29 vs. 29 – The secret things belong unto the Lord our God.


Listen to this letter I read from a missionary couple who lost their child: “Our younger son, aged 14, came down with a very severe strain of meningitis. My wife prayed for his healing, but we lost him. Our hearts are broken. We cannot understand why God would send or allow us such a sorrow and burden to carry. Can you help us?”

One thing is sure, God is too good to do wrong, and too wise to make mistake. When we have to know all details we are walking by sight, but when we can trust Him in the dark we are walking by faith.
“Without faith, it is impossible to please God” (Hebrews 11 vs. 6). Note that it doesn’t say, “Without understanding”. When we walk by faith we don’t necessarily gain understanding, but rather acceptance. 

Confidence in God is His highest purpose for our lives. When we can trust and accept without questions, we move into a dimension of greater peace and intimacy with Him. Someone is probably watching you as you walk through this storm to see how your faith works, and if your relationship with God will sustain you. It will!


Prayer: Father, help me to put my trust and my faith in your word no matter the matter in Jesus name.

Insight: Those days of questioning and grieving will be over, will pass; eventually you will say like Job, “When I am tried, I shall come forth as gold” (Job 23 vs. 10).

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...

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....
