The Seed of Forgiveness

TOPIC
The Seed of Forgiveness

LIVING SCRIPTURE
Genesis 45:4 KJV
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.




The life of Joseph the son of Jacob in the light of forgiveness comes to our hearts this morning. Born into a polygamous family, and the eleventh son was enough excuse for him to feel little, unappreciated and unrecognized in the family. But all these carnal thoughts and ways never affected him, rather he gave himself to diligence, study, wisdom and the fear of God. Joseph had in him the seed of forgiveness, we see this several times in the book of Genesis, when he was despised, hated and envied by his brothers for being a true child of God.

His brothers connived together to kill him but God's mercy made them to sell him to the Ishmaelite slave traders who sold him to Mr Potiphar. He was seduced and betrayed by Mrs Potiphar and sent to prison. In the prison his heart was not heavy or down because of his sufferings but was rather open to notice the heaviness of two other inmate. It takes a soul that has found Jesus Christ from within to truly show care and kindness to another despite the situation or circumstance. Through his kind act the cup bearer was restored and after a while Joseph was established by God over all the people in the land of Egypt and other nations even his brethren, Mrs Potiphar and all that hurt and wrong him.

The anchor scripture reveals how Joseph warmly forgave and embraced his brethren, not imputing their sins nor regarding the hurts. Likewise our Lord Jesus Christ whom we serve forgave and forgives and will still forgive a repentant soul. Jesus Christ is the farmer this morning with the seed of forgiveness, going from heart to heart, mind to mind dropping this virtue into His children. Will you accept to walk in the way of the LORD?



TO-DO
Let go of all bitterness, hatred, anger, malice, discord and disputes, and seek for the seed of forgiveness that grows by the grace and mercy of God.

PRAYER
Heavenly Father I thank you for forgiving my sins, please help me to forgive all in Jesus name.

Lord plant in my heart the seed of forgiveness and teach my mind the ways of forgiveness by your word and spirit in Jesus name.

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...

No Weakness In Heaven

Date 📅 14th October, 2022 Topic No Weakness In Heaven Living Scripture Matthew 5:48 KJV Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Heaven is a place to dream about, a place where our Heavenly Father dwells. It is not the skies we see or the galaxy of wide space we watch on the satellite and internet. The Bible records that Heaven is God's throne, a place where there are innumerable hosts of angels serving the LORD. There's no weakness in God's presence, for His glory and power radiates through the whole existence. Every biblical angel as described are very powerful and well coordinated. So is everyone born of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ came from Heaven and taught us what Heaven is like. And all the illustrations given in the four gospel of Christ were full of maturity and perfection. God wants us to be like Him that's why we are made in His image and glory though resident here on earth but of the commonwealth of Heaven. Wit...

FELLOWSHIP

Date 📅 24th November, 2022 Topic Fellowship (koinonia) Living Scripture Matthew 18:20 KJV For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Wherever believers are gathered in the name of Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, there the Lord comes to fellowship. In heaven the celestials cease not to give due worship to God and the LAMB of God, it's a constant tradition of divine communion and fellowship. It is not every gathering that men calls Jesus Christ that he attends, the scripture states that these candidates for fellowship must be in the name of Jesus Christ. They must be saved to even think of gathering for the purpose of intimacy and fellowship. Two thieves were hung up on the cross with the person of Christ, but only one that repented and believed in the Kingdom of Heaven and Christ, that received attention from Jesus. To gather in fellowship with the Lord as a family this morning, we must all be in Him. Our devotion will not be c...
