Not my Feet Only

Not my Feet Only 

Living Scripture 
John 13:8-9 KJV
Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. [9] Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.



Feet Washing is very scriptural and spiritual, it should be done with a pure heart, clean hands by a willing heart ready to serve God's children just as our Lord Jesus did with the twelve. It is not a job for the prideful but for servant-leaders and disciples. It signifies both spiritual and physical acceptance into the body of Christ, a lawful entrance into Him to partake of His glory and power. Physically washing your feet shows cleanliness, and readiness to enter new grounds. In the Jewish tradition it also serves as acceptance into one's home. 

Simon Peter felt he was honoring the Lord by refusing Christ Jesus to wash his feet. Which meant he was not willing to enter into service with Christ, be cleaned and free in the house of the Lord. This is called ignorance of service - but Jesus Christ educated him on the importance of true service as a child of God and a partaker of His glory. The disciples were not aware of the deliverance Christ did for them, the dust of their past was washed away, chains of stagnation and limitations broken for them to gain freedom to walk into greatness. Many have been tied down this way in life but right now you are free in the name of Jesus Christ.

Many children of God today are ignorant of this verse and display religious actions rather than understanding the principal truth. Our Lord Jesus came closer to His disciples not minding His worth and might but he came to introduce them to kingdom secrets which was not done or shared with the multitudes. A disciple of God is not an ordinary church goer but one who follows after Christ whole heartedly. When Peter knew the essence of feet-washing he said "not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. He was willing to be totally washed.



PRAYER CAPSULE
• Heavenly Father I need your cleansing water to wash the dirts of my life and past. Cleanse my by your blood Lord Jesus.
• Lord I am ready to be washed into freedom
• By your mercy and grace dear Lord as my feets are washed today I gain entrance into more of you.


INSIGHT PILL 💊
Feet Washing is not for everyone but for those willing to serve.

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

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 Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
