The Heart Condition

Living Scripture
Genesis 45:3-5,7-8 KJV
And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence. [4] And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. [5] Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life. [7] And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. [8] So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.


The heart of Joseph was pure and filled with peace. He kept himself away from sin and reserved for the Lord's use. He feared the Lord with his life and walked in uprightness from his father's house to Potiphar's, then the prison and up to the palace. Though his brothers envied him and did all manner of evil and wickedness against him. They threw him into a pit with murderous intentions but later sold him out to human traders as a slave. 

Despite all these harsh conditions, betrayals and actions Joseph faced, he never lost his mind or harbored bitterness and unforgiveness against his brethren, Mr & Mrs Potiphar or the king servants. His heart condition made him open to the school of the Spirit right there in those circumstances and situations of life that he faced. He learnt Godly wisdom which came out while he was speaking with Pharaoh and interpreting the dreams and he found favor.

The condition of our hearts matters a lot in our relationship with God, Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit and also with our fellow neighbors. We must take care of our hearts at all times by learning to let go of hurts, pains and offences by forgiving and making peace. Christ Jesus lived such a life and refused to stain His heart with the things of this world and when the prince of this world came he found nothing of his with Christ. There's victory in obeying the word and voice of God.


PRAYER CAPSULE
• Heavenly Father please cleanse my heart with your blood and set me free from my guilt.
• O LORD help me by your Spirit to let go of offences like Joseph and Jesus did.

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 ...
