Broken and a Contrite Heart

DATE 📅

TOPIC
Broken and a Contrite Heart

LIVING SCRIPTURE
Mark 14:3 KJV
And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.



The psalmist King David enjoyed the blessings of being broken and open to the LORD. Psalm 51 reads: Psalm 51:17 KJV
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. God seeks men that are broken and willing to walk in purity and holiness. It doesn't matter our former or present state, what's more important is our hearts cry of repentance to God. 

The woman in the scripture refused to give up on life, though it seems there was no hope for her anywhere nor was there any man to assist her with the issues of life. The testimonies of Christ Jesus that she heard was sufficient enough to pierce through her heart and she became broken of the most valuable possession she had, which was herself unto the LORD and not just the alabaster box.

Though the ointment was precious and costly in the worldly standard but what is more precious than the human soul! She anointed His head and feet and used her hair, not an expensive towel to wipe His feet. How precious was her surrender and worship at the feet of Jesus Christ. Let us seek Him this morning with a broken and a Contrite Heart such as He will never reject. Jesus Christ is waiting for your soul to be offered to Him so He can beautify your life and destiny. 


PRAYER CAPSULE
• O Father I repent and surrender all to you
• Lord Jesus Christ I present my self to you as a sacrifice on your altar.
• Please LORD let your will and purpose be activated in my life.


INSIGHT 
Give to the LORD the best of you.

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 ...
