Lasting Peace

DATE: September 10th, 2021

TOPIC: Lasting Peace 

BIBLE TEXT: Philippians 4vs7 – And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds on Christ Jesus.


To possess peace is to have freedom from oppression, unpleasant thoughts, worries and to have harmony within. There are two kinds of peace here on earth made available to mankind. The worldly peace and the peace of God which is the lasting peace. God’s kind of peace is our focus this morning, because it transcends all understanding and envelopes our hearts and souls with harmony. True peace is given through Christ Jesus by the Holy Spirit, as a fruit grown on the inside.

Without forgiveness, there’ll never be lasting peace. Look at the world today, the United Nations keeps trying to bring peace on earth between nations and continents but they are still struggling to obtain it. That’s man’s way of reasoning and it is worldly. Many nations come to cease fire and yet harbor deep unforgiveness within that’s why we see cold wars/crisis going on in nations. 

There’s hope for us, as Christ Jesus, the prince of peace has made himself available for all who believes in Him to receive lasting peace, total freedom from bondage and self-captivity. What forgiveness does to the soul is far greater than the therapist’s/doctor’s diagnosis or therapy to curb your unrest. Seek Jesus today and cast your cares on Him and become a partaker of true and lasting peace as a child of God.


Prayer: Heavenly Father, I desire lasting peace in my life, in my heart and soul. I receive peace as I forgive and forget all offences and hurts.

Insight: Lasting Peace is through Jesus Christ and no where else.

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...

Sinner to Saint

Date 📅 20th October, 2022 Topic Sinner to Saint Living Scripture Romans 3:23 KJV For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; The journey of our convertion and transfiguration started when we decided to let go of our self and old ways and tune into the will of God by accepting Christ as Lord and Savior. Our Lord Jesus Christ is in the business of turning sinners to saints. Because of the fall of man from the beginning it was written that all mankind have sinned and come short of the supply of God's mighty glory. Which is why Christ Jesus died that we might be heirs and like heirs with Him in the kingdom of God. Without Jesus no one can be saved, all men without the knowledge and salvation of Christ are sinners. No man was born a saint, we are washed from stains, sins and disobedience into saints (children of God). The Bible is not full of men born as saints but rather men and women washed by the Blood of the Lamb of God and by the Word of God. Father Abrah...

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 ...
