FAITH CAPSULE: A desire to seek God is not by force but by choice of one. 

Psalm 27

What is your desire in life?
Desire means a strong feeling of wanting to have something or wishing for something to happen.
In life, whatever one desires to be is what one seeks after.
In life, what do you desire? 
One with desires to live heaven on earth will seek after the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.
Matthew 6:33 records, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” 
What do you desire?
It takes the desire to live life for God that will make such to seek God. 
When one desires God, that will prompt God to deposit in one to seek Him diligently.
A desire for God demands active devotion to God, not a mouth desire.
Desire with devotion, and God will deposit strength to desire in one for Him.
King David knows what is best to desire when he said, “One thing I have desired of the LORD, that will I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple.” (Psalm 27:4)
What is your desire before God that see all things?
In life, choices will make or break the desire for one.
However, the things one desires will have a direct effect on the choices that one makes in life. 
Mark 8:34 encourages having a good desire saying, “When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up the cross, and follow Me.” 
Think right and answer yourself: what is your desire in life?
A desire to seek God is not by force but the choice of one. 
Have a desire for God in the heart to prompt God to deposit desire.
God created all with the freedom of choice because He is not a slave-master but a saving-master. 
He said, “Whoever desires.” Have you ever thought about the calling of God, or are you just going with the flow of the crowd?
Imagine desire for God: Can anyone possibly carry a cross in one hand and self on the other? It is impossible! 
Think about the desire for God.
Decide to repent and rededicate your life for Christ. 
God sees all, pretending as the desired one for God should not walk-in line with the crowd with deception about desire. 
The time is at hand for Him to identify one. 
It will cost God nothing to expose one with no desire for Him.
Know to desire for God, and He will make it possible by enabling you to live life for His glory.
Your integrity counts most before God.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you for your desire for Him.

FAITH CAPSULE: Get to be praising God as a way of life.

Psalm 22

Just as God inhabits praise, the enemy evil one inhabits the complaint.
Pray that praising God shall be your portion continually. 
Give yourself to praising God for keeping you this far.
Praise Him with understanding.
Psalm 47:7 records, “For God, is the King of all the earth; Sing praises with understanding.” 
Praising God is the understanding for gaining a known edge.
Praising God with the understanding will gain and retain the presence of God.
Psalm 22:3 records, “But You are holy, Enthroned in the praises of Israel.”
Isaiah 42:10 states, “Sing to the Lord a new song, And His praise from the ends of the earth, You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, You coastlands and you inhabitants of them!”
Ask that in this month and coming months, that singing song to the glory of God shall be your way of life.
Ask that praise of victory will not cease in your life this day and coming months.
Are you a believer with understanding to praise God?
It is ignorant to be living life by limiting praising God continually.
In life, ignorance makes a destitute believer.
It is wrong not to be praising God as a way of life.
One assuming praising God but not praising with understanding has taken to a way that seems right.
Proverbs 16:25 records, “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.”
PRAYER:
Today, ask that God will replace you away from every way that seems right you have engaged. 
Pray against wrongdoing before God.
Often, ignorant will lead one to wrongdoing that keeps one far from God.
How far are you from God that is near to all at all times regardless of wrongdoing before Him?
With sin, one that is far or walks far from God is taking a route to fall for the enemy.
Do not walk far from God. 
In your walk, despise wrongdoing to observe the word of God, His way that is His presence. 
Proverbs 23: 26 admonish all “My son, give me your heart, And let your eyes observe my ways.”
Prayerfully 
Ask God to enable you to give your heart that will make your eyes observe His ways.
Ask that God will make His strength be established in you not to fall.
The strength of God is His word.
Job 4:4 testify word of God as His strength “Your words have upheld him who was stumbling, and you have strengthened the feeble knees.”
Ask that the strength of God shall answer for your standing not to become a victim of wrongdoing.
Get to be praising God as a way of life.

Prayer for today: Ask that God give you the heart to walk in line with Him.

FAITH CAPSULE: Life transformation to live life for God is in His word.

Exodus 4

In the life of a journey, one will experience a life-changing for the better and shall live life to the glory of God.
In the word of God is what and all it takes to be living heaven on earth.
The word of God is the truth that never fails.
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)
Do you listen to the word of God to believe Him?
John 14:1 records, “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.”
Worrying is encased in a heart troubled.
Worshipping God is foreign to worrying.
Among ways of worshipping God is meditating on the word of God.
One meditating on the word of God is with heart occupied by the word of God (presence of God) with no room for worrying.
Meditating on the word of God is worshiping God to occupy the mind against worrying.
Let not your heart be troubled but be occupied by meditating on the word of God.
God commanded Joshua: This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to the word of God. (Joshua 1:8) 
Meditating on the word of God is communicating with God to maintain and retain the presence of God.
Meditating the word of God will teach and lead one to observe and do according to what God wants all to do.
Meditating the word of God builds a relationship with God, not becoming a victim of evil occurrence.
In life, a life change is to be in the right location and right time. 
The right location at the right time can be a challenging time of life as to where to encounter the word of God.
In the story of the life of Moses, Peter (the apostle), Zacchaeus testifies to having an encounter with the word of God for life changes for good, to the glory of God.
Moses at a time of discomfort (Exodus 4:2, “So the Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A rod.” In Exodus 4:17, “And you shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs.” The word of God located Moses to reveal the power of God in his hand to live life for the glory of God.
Peter, at a time of discouragement as a Professional fisher, had an encounter that LAUNCHED him DEEP for God. Luke 5:4 Jesus said to him, “He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 
How often do you disregard God to remain discouraged because you are giving more regard to world dictate instead of the dictates of God?
Life transformation to live life for God is in His word.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable your attention to your encounter with His word.

FAITH CAPSULE: What kind of church are you answering before God?

1 Corinthians 3

What kind of church are you answering before God?
Is the church (temple of God) for real today or only receding from what the word of God calls for the church to be? 
Bible identifies the church, “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” (1 Corinthians 3:16) 
Today many answers to be for Christ (believer) with titles but not do according to the word of God. 
However, sin and sinning build distance between man and God.
How far are you from God that is never far from all?
Growing in sin and sinning will be far from God. 
God does not tolerate sin but withdraws God from man. 
Roman 3:23 buttresses, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” 
To avoid living in sin is giving self to the word of God, the evidence of standing in faith before God.
Having faith is a determinant not to be living in sin but of living by the word of God that is source of having faith. 
Jesus once asked in Luke 18:8, “…when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?” (Luke 18:8)
Are you hearing and hearing by the word of God to keep away from sin by living by faith?
Give self to the word God, come out of religion; enter into the reality of Christ to become established on a ground (a position) of receiving revelation from God. 
As a believer (a Christ reality), live faithfully like Abraham. 
Know that to be faithful is a sacrifice that demands commitment with not of convenience that is not costly. 
To be faithful should be a lifestyle that is walking before God. 
Today, the church has taken the opposite direction by turning away from the word of God to the world. 
Turn away from the world of sin and turn to God.
What kind of church are you answering before God?
Are you answering as a church of God that is not rooted in the word of God?
Sin and sinning are not of God.
Proverbs 1:10 warns, “My son if sinners entice you, Do not consent.”
Proverbs 28:13 records, “He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.” 
1 Peter 4:18 make it known, “Now “If the righteous one is scarcely saved, Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?”
Sin is not of God but will hinder praying before God when there is no prayer for forgiveness and abstaining from the life of sin.
The psalmist asks for forgiveness to gain the mercy of God. 
Psalm 25:18 records, “Look on my affliction and my pain, And forgive all my sins.”
Live life for God, stay away from sin, be near God, and let the mercy of God answer in your life.
Answer as the church of God, a temple where the spirit of God resides.

Prayer for today: Ask God to direct your heart not to live a life of sin.

FAITH CAPSULE: What is denying you from seeing in the word of God that does not return to God?

Deuteronomy 1

The promises of God are His word in the pages of the bible.
Know to give self to the word of God to gain and retain the presence of God.
Many believers languish not able to see and possess the promises of God.
The ability to see what God says will provoke one to strive to gain the promise in the word of God.
God, in His word, promised the Israelites a land that flows with milk and honey (Promised Land). At a point in time, during their journey from the bondage of over four hundred years, they decided to dwell too long at Horeb.
In the journey of life, dwelling too long away from the promise of God is a terminating force that will deny one from the promise of God. 
For example, the dwelling of the Israelites at Horeb prompted God to send Moses to the Israelites:  “The Lord our God said to us at Horeb, “You have stayed long enough at this mountain. Break camp and advance into the hill country of the Amorites; go to all the neighboring peoples in the Arabah, in the mountains, in the western foothills, in the Negev, and along the coast, to the land of the Canaanites and to Lebanon, as far as the great river, the Euphrates. See, I have given you this land. Go in and take possession of the land…” (Deuteronomy 1:6-8) 
The Israelites must have failed not to see in the promise of God and not strive to move to possess the Promised Land.
For the Israelites, doubt must have denied the seeing in the promise of God.
The doubt of the Israelites was evidence of short-sightedness which made their request for a spying mission. 
In Deuteronomy 1:22, Moses testifies: “Then all of you came to me and said, “Let us send men ahead to spy out the land for us and bring back a report about the route we are to take and the towns we will come to.” 
The doubt of Israelites denied them not to SEE in the word of God, as God commanded them to see.
The ability to see what God says will live life to possess His promise. 
A month after months that you continue to dwell on the same ground will not take you to the promise of God. 
What is denying you from seeing in the word of God that does not return to God?
It is time to ask for clarity of sight so that you may see in the word of God and be able to move and possess His promise for you.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable your seeing in His promises.
