Attaining Godly Heights.

DATE: September 19, 2021

TOPIC: Attaining Godly Heights.

BIBLE TEXT: II Timothy 2vs1 – Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. vs15 – study to show thyself approved of God a workman that needeth not be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth.


As a child of God (a true Christian) we need to grow daily in the ways of the LORD. We need to attain Godly heights by the increase of God’s grace upon our lives. Study carefully II Timothy 2vs1 – it says “my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus." This verse speaks to us all that are in Christ. To walk through the earth, you need to be strong, tough and mature. Don’t only seek promotion in your schools or offices or organizations alone but seek the grace of God available in Christ daily to receive godly promotion.

Like a well-known saying, you may be age mates or older/younger than your friend/neighbor or pastor but you are not grace mates. This implies that they’ve grown in the deposits of God’s grace at work in their lives due to their actions and walk with God. You can also attain godly heights by studying and meditating daily on the word of God and putting into every action all you’ve learnt as directed by the Holy Spirit.

Jesus the son of God taught about consistency and focus that we should let our eye (mind, desires and heart) be single. Apostle Paul, following this example as he attained Godly heights and passed down the secrets unto Timothy and the church.


Prayer: Heavenly King, I receive the grace to pursue righteousness and attain heights that you’ll take me to.

Insights: Remember, to obtain Godly heights, you must be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...

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....

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...
