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,

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,

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

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 Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
