Proof of Faith

Proof of Faith

LIVING SCRIPTURE
Daniel 1:11-15 KJV
Then said Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, 
[12] Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink. 
[13] Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the children that eat of the portion of the king's meat: and as thou seest, deal with thy servants. 
[14] So he consented to them in this matter, and proved them ten days. 
[15] And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king's meat.





Proof of Faith: this act is seen performed only by a few people in the Bible. These were men and women that trusted the LORD more than life. As children of God we need to learn to build our faith by knowing more of the LORD through His Words and Spirit. Daniel was a peculiar man with a unique mindset, he was not different from any other believer in a special way but he built his way into more of the LORD by totally trusting in the possibilities of God. We have the opportunity to do the same if we choose to know our Heavenly Father deeper than ever before.

Daniel refused the gluttony of politics and kingdoms because he had found the way and culture of God, he had obtain godly contentment and was satisfied with the blessings of the LORD. His discovery made him to request for pulse (vegetables), he craved for healthy meals rather than chunks of beefs and drums of wine. He proposed ten days and in ten days Daniel and his brothers were much more preferred and healthier than those fed with the king's meat.

Wherever we go or find ourselves we must never forget the teachings and ways of God. Daniel showed the proof of Faith to Melzar in Babylon and God was willing to refresh him, which He did. Today God seeks a man in homes, families, youths and children who will stand in His holiness as a light and a proof of Faith to the whole world.



TO-DO
Be like Daniel today, discover Heavenly culture and norms practiced by Jesus Christ and live by them in faith.


PRAYER
Heavenly Father I thank you for the grace to know you and learn godly contentment.

Teach me your ways O LORD and keep me in your love.



DECLARATION OF FAITH:
When men are saying it is a casting down,
As for me and my household, it is a lifting up,
This is my year of I am a living wonder,
And my month of I am helped, Lifted & Made Strong,
I am an expression of God's grace, 
A wealthy Taborite, A celebrity in the class of kingdom celebrities,
The Father's Desire is my desire,
As for me, soul winning is my priority,
It does not matter, what is the matter,
I shall matter where it matters most.
God bless my pastor's & God bless me too,
Tabor family! 
A people favored by God.

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...

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...

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...
