Giving

LIVING SCRIPTURE
Acts 10:2 KJV
A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.



Cornelius was a dedicated man to the ways of giving and blessing the people around him because he loved God. This simple act of love and kindness is the way Christ Jesus wants us to adopt, that we should be dedicated givers. The first giver that is still dedicated to the giving commission and will still give is our Heavenly Father. For He loved us so much that He created a planet for us to rule and dwell and when sin separated us from Him, He gave His most priced possession - Jesus Christ the Son of the living God to die for the world. He gives and gives...

Dedication to the call of expressing love and kindness to our neighbors is the way of the Lord. A true believer is a giver and should follow the way of love - Agape (the giving love). Giving is spiritual, it takes one who's heart looks beyond self to be able to give freely to people whether they deserve it or not. There are many unbelievers today out there like Cornelius that gives dedicatedly and receive the blessing of God because their heart desires the goodness of God. And when such people encounter Jesus Christ, their giving becomes a way and a light to their world. 

Believers today spend so much on themselves than the church or a neighbor. We see many giving their worst than their best. A believer can use a huge sum to acquire things for themselves but thinks of change when it comes to offerings, seeds, charity/welfare. Imagine having God but serving with a poor mentality. Let us adopt the way of father Abraham who gave so much that his entire household never lacked, lot went blessed, and strangers were passing by and he cared for them and he received a miracle word. King David and Solomon also, were dedicated givers to the Lord and the people. We can win more souls if we also reach out to many as a means of evangelism and care for their needs by giving..


TO-DO 
Show love to someone this week and give dedicatedly.


PRAYER
Heavenly Father I need the grace to be able to give dedicatedly to as many as you direct me to and to your cause O LORD.

Help dear LORD to come out of my self-absorbed ways..


INSIGHT
It is more blessed to give..

THINKING GOD’S WAY

JULY 9TH – CAPSULE 9  TOPIC: THINKING GOD’S WAY  BIBLE TEXT: EPHESIANS 4VS23 – Be renewed in the spirit of your mind. How you process information and arrive at conclusions must always be subject to the will of God. Listen, “……….be made new in the attitude of your minds”. When you first start thinking Gods way, it will feel strange to you. It may even feel like a “put-on”. But it’s not. It works like this: you have to  (a). Practice being nice until you automatically become nice.  (b). Practice going to church on Sunday, until going anywhere else seems strange to you.  (c). Practice giving to God until it be comes as natural to you as shopping at the mall.  (d). Practice speaking the truth until even the smallest lie tastes bad in your mouth.  (e). Practice speaking kindness until every cynical, negative word is purged from your vocabulary. Its all a matter of practice! But you ask, “ isn’t that hypocritical – feeling one way and speaking an...

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 FIRST WITNESSES

Date - December 22nd, 2021 Topic - THE FIRST WITNESSES   Bible Text - When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. - Luke 2:17-18 As anyone who has ever been part of a living nativity can tell you, the shepherds played an important role in the Christmas story. Angels announced Jesus’ birth to them. Since angels only do God’s bidding, it’s safe to say God wanted the shepherds involved. Naturally the shepherds were overwhelmed and frightened at first. But the angels calmed their fears. They headed off to Bethlehem, as the angels directed, unsure of exactly why they had been summoned by God. They had no gifts to give the baby or the young couple. They really had nothing to offer at all. Yet they went to see all that the angels had told them about. As a result, the shepherds were the only witnesses, besides Mary and Joseph, to Jesus’ first hours on ea...
