FAITH CAPSULE: Truly wait on God to locate God.

Isaiah 64

Focusing on God will wait on God and not waste time but believe in the word of God. Word of God might sound foolish but never fail to deliver those who believe in His word. It is the word of God to ask, seek and knock. To be Asking, Seeking, Knocking for God’s answer is evidence of having faith in God, looking up to Jesus. Hebrews 12:2 records, “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Jesus the author of our faith has given to all the way to receive by stating, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” (Matthew 7:7-8)
Truly, waiting on God demands to trust and hoping by asking, seeking and knocking before the manifestation of expectation. When there is no waiting on God is rushing away from God’s answer and turn to waste. 
King Saul could not wait as instructed for him to receive his expectations. 
To obey and wait is to trust and hope on God but Saul could not wait on God.
Waiting for God is giving attention to a jealous God. 
Psalmist admonishes, “Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed…” (Psalm 25:3) 
A believer in God must understand to wait and endure period. 
Waiting can be a delay but never a waste of time. 
God testifies about David when Saul failed to wait on God. God spoke to Saul’s disobedience through Samuel, “But now your kingdom shall not continue. The Lord has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be commander over His people because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.” (1 Samuel 13:14) 
David knows the heart of God with understanding what it means as he consistently obeys God by waiting on God before making his moves. 
The bible records about the prodigal son that could not wait for God’s timing, “A certain man had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living.” (Luke 15:11-13) 
Younger son could not wait for God’s appointed time to receive a portion of good that falls to him. 
Indirectly, the prodigal son made move outside of God’s timing for his life because he could not wait. One that believes will ask, seek and knock persistently for God’s appointed time.

Prayer for today: Ask God for His power upon you to be waiting on Him.

FAITH CAPSULE: The expectation for manifestation is the identity of one with an understanding of God. 

Psalm 14, 47

The evidence of living life to the glory of God is your spiritual empowerment, which is the place of watching and praying.
What is the place of watching and praying to rule your world?
The place of watching and praying is to:
Pray with understanding.
Pray continually.
Pray with understanding:
Praying with understanding is seeking God to find Him.
The word of God specifically admonishes for understanding when seeking God. Psalm 47:7 records, “For God is the king of all the earth; sing praises with understanding.”
Just as praising God demands to understand, praying or thanking also demands to understand.
Jesus at the time of His parables, He wanted to know if there is understanding saying, “…Are you also still without understanding?” (Matthew 15:16)
The importance of having an understanding is the reason that “The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God.” (Psalm 14:2)
Are you praying with understanding to know that your prayer is not wasting your time but it is your time of waiting on God that waits to act for those who wait on Him?
Pray continually:
One with the exception that prays to God continually.
Psalm 72:15 records, “…Prayer also will be made for Him continually, and daily He shall be praised.” The word of God that speaks to one, speaks to all and God should be praised continually.
Praying to God continually is a sacrifice that demands giving self to God without excuse for not praying continually. Acts 6:4 records, “but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
Are you engaging in prayer continually with mindful of God, to find God?
Are you watching and praying with expectation for manifestation?
Having expectations for manifestation is the evidence of having faith.
In your watching and praying, let your faith for expectation and manifestation be activated, to provoke the move of God for your favor.
Expect for manifestation: 
Jesus, in His word, did not command all to pray but repeatedly command all to watch and pray. The Bible records, “Watch and pray lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41)
“Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.” (Mark 13:33)
Watch, therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:36) 
Disciples of Jesus request from all to watch and pray in Ephesians 6:18, “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.” 
“But the end of all things is at hand; therefore, be serious and watchful in your prayers.” (1 Peters 4:7)
The expectation for manifestation is the evidence of those who watch and pray, as commanded in the word of God, for all man.

Prayer for today: Ask for the grace of seeking God with understanding.

FAITH CAPSULE: Focus on giving positive testimonies.

Numbers 14

Evidence of Positive Testimony: King David, by the word of his testimonies, had a great and mighty deliverance when he overcame Goliath. In his attempt to go and fight Goliath, King Saul was discouraging when he said to David, “…You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.” (1 Samuel 17:33) David refused to be discouraged, but gave an account of what he was able to do as he responded to King Saul, “…Your servant used to keep his father’s sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock, 35 I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I caught it by its beard, and struck and killed it.” (1 Samuel 17:34-35) David was not intimated by the confronting challenge that was posed by Goliath. Instead, David dwelt on what The Lord his God had enabled him to do in the past and he gave testimony, “The LORD, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” (1 Samuel 17:37) David, by the word of his testimony, was able to overcome the giant challenge of Goliath.  
Evidence of Negative Testimony: The children of Israel experienced a great miracle when they were coming out of their bondage of over four hundred years and passing through the Red Sea on dry land but their testimonies denied them from God’s Promised Land. 
The Israelites’ response to the spy’s negative report after investigation of the Promised Land, they had no better testimony but to confess, “…If only we had died in the land of Egypt! Or if only we had died in this wilderness! 3 Why has the LORD brought us to this land to fall by the sword, that our wives and children should become victims? Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt? 4 So they said to one another, ‘Let us select a leader and return to Egypt.’” (Numbers 14: 2-4) 
God heard the children of Israel’s negative testimony when sent Moses to the Israelites, “Say to them, ‘As I live,’ says the LORD, ‘just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you.’” (Numbers 14:28) In truth, entire numbers from twenty years old and up except Caleb and Joshua, failed and not get to the Promised Land, because of their negative testimony.
What are your testimonies? Which words are being produced in you and being released by your tongue as testimony? Proverbs 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of tongue…” David saw challenges, he testified to the power of God and he overcame. The children of Israel saw challenges, they confessed negative and could not arrive Promised Land. In facing challenges, give positive testimonies, meditate, confess and be established for the glory of God.

Prayer for today: Ask that you will be giving positive testimonies to the glory of God.

FAITH CAPSULE: When God calls you do not look away from His calling.

Genesis 19:1-26

God alone created all for His glory and His honor. Revelation 4:11 buttressed, “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, and by Your will, they exist and were created.” What is it that you do not understand about God? He alone is the Almighty, the Ancient of days. 1Timothy 6:15 described God, “…He will manifest in His own time, He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords.” God alone is above and beyond all as Psalmist said it right, “The Lord sat enthroned at the Flood, And the Lord sits as King forever.” (Psalm 29:10)
God will make and un-make, He alone is the unchanging changer, He alone will reverse the irreversible. You did not create yourself. Your journey of life is the calling of God which is your only creator.
Your calling by God for His divine assignment will come as a process for His purpose over your life. In His calling, if you are not connected to God continually with your concentration on God’s calling, you are set for failure. In your God’s calling, dwell and abide in His direction, the evidence of concentrating on God’s calling.
God has a calling for all with a different assignment.
God created all for His purpose, for His glory.
God’s word confirmed that our Lord God is worthy to receive glory and honor and power. He created all things to exist for His glory. (Revelations 4:11) Whatever God calls you for, or when He calls you for His purpose, to send you will mark you as a candidate for His blessing.
His calling will break you at the initial stage of calling but will no doubt turn to God’s blessing when obedient is in place.
The ones He breaks are meant to be blessed. His breaking comes along with His blessing. (Jesus broke and blessed the bread of life)
In the time of His calling, He will never leave you broken if you answer to His calling faithfully.
The called one should not look away from His help. When God called Lot and his family for salvation, the wife of Lot looked outside of God’s direction for her self-destruction. (Genesis 19:26)
The calling of God does not come without challenges (challenges that are enough to cause the calling of man to crumble comes along with calling) Regardless of challenges, there is the promise of God to see one through in His calling. The word of God promised in 1Thessalonian 5:24, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.” What or when God calls for you and you invite doubt the agent of limitation is erecting a roadblock for your miracle. Deny doubt!

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you to answer fully to His calling.

FAITH CAPSULE: Deny hinderance of your breakthrough!

Luke 18:31-45

In life, there is always a way to deny the multitude/crowd, as a hindrance.
Bartimaeus Case with multitude as hinderance
Taking the life story of Bartimaeus into consideration, much will learn from breaking hindrances of the multitude that frequently denies miracles in the journey of life.
A certain blind man used the multitude/crowd as an indicator but not to accommodate the crowd’s hindrance of his life.
The blind man wanted to gain his sight but the crowd was in a position to hinder him. Luke 18:35-39 records Bartimaeus’s encounter with Jesus and the crowd’s role in his miracle to gain sight, “Then it happened, as He was coming near Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the road begging. And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what it meant. So they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. And he cried out, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me! Then those who went before warned him that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
The same multitude that gave him an indication about Jesus’ passing warned him to be quiet. He refused to accommodate the crowd’s direction but cried out even more. Jesus responded to Bartimaeus, “Receive your sight; your faith has made you well.” (Luke 18:42) Use multitude as an indicator for you to identify devices of hinderance to delay you, but never accommodate a multitude in your situation. 
Ask God to put the multitude/crowd outside of your life, that you receive sight to rise for His calling in your life.
The multitude/crowd must be put out for you not to become a victim of the hinderance device of the multitude/crowd. 
On many occasions, Jesus our Lord and Savior had to put out multitude/crowd, not to hinder miracle in peoples’ lives, and they are recordings for all to know to deny hinderance device of the multitude.
PUTTING OUT MULTITUDE
Jesus put out the crowd in an attempt to restore Jairus’ daughter’s life in Matthew 9:25, “But when the crowd was put outside, He went in and took her by the hand, and the girl arose.”  
Like Jesus, Peter also put out the crowd not to deny one Dorcas’ miracle. Acts 9:40 records, “But Peter put them all out, and knelt down and prayed. And turning to the body he said, “Tabitha, arise.” And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.” 
Learn in the word of God to know that putting out the multitude/crowd will deny hinderance from having a place of your miracle.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you not to become a victim of a hindrance.
