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.

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?

Date - December 19th, 2021 Topic - MARY, DID YOU KNOW? Bible Text - But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.” - Luke 1:30-31 If God had asked the women of Israel who wanted to be the mother of the Messiah, every one of them would have raised her hand. If they had known what that privilege would actually involve—becoming pregnant before marriage, enduring terrible gossip, watching helplessly as their Son was mocked, ridiculed, tortured and crucified—those hands would have come down in a hurry. Mary certainly didn’t volunteer for the job. And she was stunned to discover she’d been selected for such an important role. She handled the extraordinary situation with grace and humility. She asked one question to help her understand God’s plan, then agreed to it immediately. God has a plan for each of us. Ours may not be as earth-shattering as Mary’s. Ou...

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 ...

Unending Mercy

Date 📅 11th November, 2022 Topic Unending Mercy Living Scripture 1 Chronicles 16:34 KJV O give thanks unto the Lord ; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever. Hallelujah brethren! This is the day which our Heavenly Father has made and we shall be glad and rejoice in it because His mercy and compassion is unending. When we think of the goodness of Jesus Christ in our lives we'll discover how much love He poured on us collectively and individually. On this glorious day King David sang his Psalm of Thanksgiving and adoration first unto the LORD with Asaph the chief musician on the cymbals. The ark of covenant was returning to its place in Israel after the victory over their enemies and relocation from the house of Obed-edom. It was a great day, the people fed and rejoiced at the feast of worship made by King David unto the LORD. As we start our day this morning, take time to worship God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit for all and everything you can rememb...
