REDEEMED BY CHRIST

DATE: OCTOBER 6, 2021

TOPIC: REDEEMED BY CHRIST

BIBLE TEXT: Colossians 1vs14 – In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.

Hebrews 9vs12 – Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

Beloved we owe everything we own, and all our lives to Christ. He alone went to the place angels could not, he reached the depths man could not, he paid the price, which money could not afford to pay. And shed his blood on the cross that animals blood could not atone neither any other man’s blood. What a great priviledge it is, that our redemption comes from the Son of righteousness, the Son of God.

Through the blood of Jesus, we obtained forgiveness of sins. That’s why God’s word says; “if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things (sins, mistakes and errors) are passed away (they are all dead and have no life again to torment us); behold, all things are become new. The purity of the blood of Jesus Christ made our lives brand new and now acceptable before God the Father in heaven.

The blood of Christ is the force of exchange that bought back our freedom from sin and hell, that’s why Apostle Paul wrote in col. 2vs14 – Blotting out (removing forcefully) the handwriting of ordinances (statements and decrees) that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it (crucifying it) to his cross (the place of freedom and victory). He went on to say in 1Corinthians 15vs55 – O death (birth from sin) where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? Sin has no more wins over us in Christ Jesus as long we abide in the righteousness of God. Let us be thankful to God for the gift of salvation, redemption and sanctification in Christ Jesus.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you intentionally for buying me back with your holy blood thank you for paying the price.

Insight: And we overcame him (satan) by the blood of the lamb.

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 ...

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...

NOW

Date 📅 18th October, 2022 Topic NOW Living Scripture Hebrews 11:1,7 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. [7] By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. Now we begin to walk in the ways of faith and truth as our fathers in faith and mighty men of old and just as they witnessed the glory of God first hand so shall we if we act now. The perfect example is Noah and the ark, a man of grace and wisdom. The world was stained with disobedience, sinful ways and thick immoralities. And God decided to wipe the inhabitants of the earth with a great flood such as have never been before and even after. The heavens where ready to open the flood gates and the earth to let out her waters. When God spoke to Noah, he acted immediately and finished the ark on time and he eva...
