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.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a

God's Security

DATE 27th January, 2023 TOPIC God's Security LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 13:21 KJV And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: Security has been of prime importance to man after the fall of man from glory. The need for spiritual and physical security became a priority due to the rapid increase in crime and violence caused by man's sinful nature and the devil's influence on vulnerable souls. Some people go as far as fortifying themselves with charms and native concussion while other trust in gadgets and technology and the government to protect their lives and properties. And it was not so in the beginning when God created Adam and Eve. The Lord placed man in a garden (a peaceful serene environment) there was absolutely no reason to be afraid or the thought of thieves because the Lord was their security officer. Man fell and the hearts and intents of ma

Christ is not far!

DATE 22nd June, 2023 TOPIC Christ is not far! LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:16-17 KJV And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;  [17] Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Jesus Christ came to save us and that we might be one just as He and the Father in Heaven are one. He is not far from those who believe in Him and His words but still many look to the sky or climb high mountains to find the Lord who sits gloriously in our hearts by His Spirit and Words. His words says that the comforter will dwell (continually live in) you and not just that but He will also be with you. He is within and without us in covering and inspiration. Seek not Jesus that is far but He that is closer to your heart and by your confessions daily. TO-DO Call on Him this morning from your hearts and worship and fellowship in the
