WHO ARE YOU?

AUGUST 27th - CAPSULE 27

TOPIC: WHO ARE YOU?

BIBLE TEXT: Acts 19 vs. 15 – One day the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know and I know Paul, but who are you?


Who are you? It is a question that many people shy away from answering. People get angry and feel reluctant to answer quickly; not that they do not know what to say, but how to say it. Knowing who you are is very important and crucial because it helps your survival in this cruel world. 

The sons of Sceva were trying to imitate other personalities to cast out demons. The demons told them – “Jesus I know, Paul I know but who are you?” People ask you every day at various gates - who are you? As you stand before the various gates, these gates are only opened when you properly identify yourself so also, when you stand at the gate of prosperity, successes, breakthroughs, etc. The spirits manning these gates are asking “who are you?” If you fail to identify properly, you will be turned back. That is why many people get close to success but never made it. 

The only person that can add value to your life is Jesus. If Jesus lives in you, He becomes your identity. If you have Jesus, you have the authority to answer spirits, when they ask questions “who are you?”

Receive Jesus and you will be known physically and spiritually. As a Christian, is the identity of Jesus truly in you ? Or you are like the Sceva’s sons who are very empty impersonators.


Prayer: Lord Jesus, be in me and I in you that I may be known in Jesus name.

Insight: Make Jesus your identity.

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...
