YOUR ATTITUDE DETERMINES EVERYTHING

AUGUST 10th - CAPSULE 10

TOPIC: YOUR ATTITUDE DETERMINES EVERYTHING

BIBLE TEXT: Numbers 14 vs. 24 (Berk) – My servant Caleb has a different attitude and has wholeheartedly followed me.


Caleb went against the crowd and popular opinion. While the majority thought the giants were too big and God’s people were too small, Caleb never doubted God for a minute. The miracles proved that nothing was too big for God to handle. The manna proved HE cared and that every need would be supplied. 

So with a God like this, how can you fail? "
Listen: “Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it” (Numbers 13 vs. 30). 

What an attitude! If only they’d listened. But no; their negative attitude landed them in the wilderness for 40 years! Doubt and unbelief will always lead you into the wilderness, grumbling and complaining will fill your life with barrenness. John Mason says, “It’s your attitude that determines your altitude. You will never rise any higher than it”. 

Caleb had a different attitude and look at the result he got: Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb ………because that he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel” (Joshua 14 vs. 13).


Prayer: Lord help me to walk with the right attitude
Lord, give me the grace to desire what God desire and see things how God sees it.

Insight: How’s your attitude and your outlook today?

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...

DO TI NOW

May 11th – Capsule 11 TOPIC : DO IT NOW BIBLE TEXT : Redeeming the time, because the days are evil – Ephesians 5 vs. 16 How many times have you said, “I will do it tomorrow?” sometimes you put somethings off because you don’t think you know enough, can’t do it well enough. The fact is, there is no magic age at which excellence emerges and quality suddenly surfaces. Thomas Jefferson was 33 when he drafted the Declaration of Independence. Charles Dickens was 24 when he began his Pickwick Papers, and 25 when he wrote Oliver Twist. Newton was 24 when he formulated The Law of Gravity. A second danger is to think that creativity and invention belong to the young. Not so! Emmanuel Kant wrote his finest philosophical work at age 74. Verdi at 80 produced crossing the Bar, and Michelangelo completed his greatest work at 87, Moses was 80 when he led God’s people out of Egypt and 120 when he got to Canaan. Seize the day! Redeem the new moments of your life. Because the time and age ...
