Topic - WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF GOD

Bible Text - “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” - John 10:27

If you love and believe in Jesus, that is because he called to you. That is because God chose you. You are God’s child. He picked you to be in his family. None of this is an accident. Your faith is not something that just happened. It was predestined. You were chosen before you were even conceived.

Your spot in God’s family is secure. Jesus knows you. He knows everything there is to know about you. You may not necessarily hear him calling to you with your ears, but you can hear him calling to you in your heart. You can hear him in your soul. You know and recognize his voice. If you were not one of his “sheep,” if you were not a child of God, you would not know his voice.

We spend a lot of time serving and working. We spend a lot of time learning about God and avoiding sin. We need to also spend some time just listening to Jesus’ voice and remembering that we are children of God and that we always will be.

PRAYER

Dear God, thank you for choosing us. Please help us to understand that you are our Father and that we are your children. Thank you for your love. Amen.

INSIGHT

Hold fast to your identity as a beloved child of God

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 ...
