THE SOUND OF VICTORY

DATE: OCTOBER 1ST 2021

TOPIC: THE SOUND OF VICTORY 

BIBLE TEXT: JOSHUA 6:20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

Our God is an awesome wonder, He instructed Joshua the son of Nun to lead the children of Israel into the promise land which He showed Moses His servant. Jericho was a strong city well-guarded and covered but the LORD released a wonderful strategy as an instruction to His children to pull down barriers and hindrances, to destroy obstacles that seems impossible. With an obedient the children of Israel followed God’s instruction and moved with the priests holding trumpets of rams and the Ark of the LORD six days. And on the seventh, they went round Jericho seven times and at the seventh turn they shouted greatly as the trumpet blasted and the walls of the Jericho fell down and the city fell into ruins and they took the city.

As children of God we need to learn devoted obedience, because Israel obeyed every instruction from God and they got their victory. You can also be victorious when you know where you belong. You cannot be everywhere at the same time. You need a family in the body of Christ, where God’s instructions will guide and lead you into your expected victory. Like Joshua, God has given us Apostles, Prophets, Evangelist, Pastors and many ministers, to receive from Him and pass it to the church. The sound of victory is just shouting out loud but by following God’s instructions and principles.

Prayer – Heavenly King, I join my family in Christ to obtain total victory

Insight – You are only victorious in the will of God.

THINKING GOD’S WAY

JULY 9TH – CAPSULE 9  TOPIC: THINKING GOD’S WAY  BIBLE TEXT: EPHESIANS 4VS23 – Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. How you process information and arrive at conclusions must always be subject to the will of God. Listen, “……….be made new in the attitude of your minds”. When you first start thinking Gods way, it will feel strange to you. It may even feel like a “put-on”. But it’s not. It works like this: you have to  (a). Practice being nice until you automatically become nice.  (b). Practice going to church on Sunday, until going anywhere else seems strange to you.  (c). Practice giving to God until it be comes as natural to you as shopping at the mall.  (d). Practice speaking the truth until even the smallest lie tastes bad in your mouth.  (e). Practice speaking kindness until every cynical, negative word is purged from your vocabulary. Its all a matter of practice! But you ask, “ isn’t that hypocritical – feeling one way and speaking an...

IT RUBS OFF

AUGUST 9th - CAPSULE 9 TOPIC: IT RUBS OFF BIBLE TEXT: Exodus 34 vs. 29 – His face glowed from being in the presence of God. You can only talk convincingly about the God you know, the one you’ve spent time with. Any other God belongs in a theology book, and you will have a hard time selling Him. When Moses came down from the mountain, his face shone. He had been in God’s presence, and when you’ve been there it shows in the way you look, the way you walk and talk, the way you treat your family, the way you spend your money and the way you respond to hurting people. It rubs off!   Paul Cain says “most of us are as close to God as we want to be”. Think about it “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you” (James 4 vs. 8). How could you possibly be the same when you’ve been with Him? He transforms everything He touches. Listen – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91 vs. 1). He didn’t say “visit” or...

THE FIRST WITNESSES

Date - December 22nd, 2021 Topic - THE FIRST WITNESSES   Bible Text - When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. - Luke 2:17-18 As anyone who has ever been part of a living nativity can tell you, the shepherds played an important role in the Christmas story. Angels announced Jesus’ birth to them. Since angels only do God’s bidding, it’s safe to say God wanted the shepherds involved. Naturally the shepherds were overwhelmed and frightened at first. But the angels calmed their fears. They headed off to Bethlehem, as the angels directed, unsure of exactly why they had been summoned by God. They had no gifts to give the baby or the young couple. They really had nothing to offer at all. Yet they went to see all that the angels had told them about. As a result, the shepherds were the only witnesses, besides Mary and Joseph, to Jesus’ first hours on ea...
