REMEDY FOR COMFORT

DATE: OCTOBER 7, 2021

TOPIC: REMEDY FOR COMFORT 

BIBLE TEXT: Colossians 3vs16 and Ephesians 5vs19 – Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the LORD.

The word of God this morning is served as a hot cup of coffee or tea with some extra toppings and honey. There is comfort in the word of God. The bible says, “the entrance of thy words giveth light,” – Psalm 119vs130. It is the light in us that burns out every darkness and saturates peace and joy within our soul. We are encouraged to let God’s word dwell (abide, reside) in us and also utilize the availability of God’s power in hymns, psalms and spiritual songs.

A certain king of Israel was grieviously tormented by an unclean spirit and it made him to misbehave and lose his honour as a king. 1samuel 16vs14 – But the Spirit of the LORD departed from saul, and an evil spirit (permitted) from the LORD troubled him”. It took a man of skill, one full of the word of God and having the Holy Spirit to help King Saul. David understood the remedy for comfort because he was a partaker of the blessings of God. 

To admonish another individual you need to first partake of it. David played the harp with a heavenly touch with a heart of Joy and gladness despite the circumstances surrounding his life. 1Samuel 16vs23 “and it came to pass when the evil spirit (permitted) from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played it with his hand; so Saul was refreshed……”. 

Practice God’s words and receive your comfort as the word expels bitterness, sorrow, sadness and mourning. Sing psalms, hymns, spiritual songs with grace to the LORD for your total comfort.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I receive comfort by your words and remedy to all trouble.

Insight: Sing spiritual songs to comfort yourself in the time of trouble.

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...

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 ...
