God’s Grace and Mercy

DATE: September 3rd, 2021

TOPIC: God’s Grace and Mercy

BIBLE TEXT: Romans 5vs8 – But God commandeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.


How glorious it is, to know the working power of God’s grace and mercy towards us. The anchor scripture reveals to us clearly that the love of God made Christ to die for us while we were sinners and ignorant. Imagine if Christ did not die on the cross, how many will be saved? And how many will go to heaven? Rhetorically, we already know the answer that only but a few will ascend. 

In the Old Testament, there were many kingdoms and also Israel. Many of those kingdoms practiced idolatry and all manner of dark acts, looking at how they died not knowing the truth that grace and mercy brought, do you think they are in heaven?
Children of God let us be thankful to God that we have Jesus Christ as our saviour. Indeed He came to save us from hell, sin and the grave. 

Today, we have the grace/privilege to live in Christ and to do God’s will. Let us go out and tell others about this Saviour and the blessings He brought to the world, a life of eternity for all who will believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and walk in the righteousness of God.


Prayer: Heavenly Father, I am intentionally grateful for your love, grace and mercy in my life.

Insight: Abide in God’s mercy and grace continually.

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...

No Weakness In Heaven

Date 📅 14th October, 2022 Topic No Weakness In Heaven Living Scripture Matthew 5:48 KJV Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Heaven is a place to dream about, a place where our Heavenly Father dwells. It is not the skies we see or the galaxy of wide space we watch on the satellite and internet. The Bible records that Heaven is God's throne, a place where there are innumerable hosts of angels serving the LORD. There's no weakness in God's presence, for His glory and power radiates through the whole existence. Every biblical angel as described are very powerful and well coordinated. So is everyone born of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ came from Heaven and taught us what Heaven is like. And all the illustrations given in the four gospel of Christ were full of maturity and perfection. God wants us to be like Him that's why we are made in His image and glory though resident here on earth but of the commonwealth of Heaven. Wit...

FELLOWSHIP

Date 📅 24th November, 2022 Topic Fellowship (koinonia) Living Scripture Matthew 18:20 KJV For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Wherever believers are gathered in the name of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, there the Lord comes to fellowship. In heaven the celestials cease not to give due worship to God and the LAMB of God, it's a constant tradition of divine communion and fellowship. It is not every gathering that men calls Jesus Christ that he attends, the scripture states that these candidates for fellowship must be in the name of Jesus Christ. They must be saved to even think of gathering for the purpose of intimacy and fellowship. Two thieves were hung up on the cross with the person of Christ, but only one that repented and believed in the Kingdom of Heaven and Christ, that received attention from Jesus. To gather in fellowship with the Lord as a family this morning, we must all be in Him. Our devotion will not be c...
