FAITH CAPSULE: Answer the calling of God to live life by the word of God. 

Psalm 8, 49

The calling of God is a blessing of God in the life of one that answers.

In life, no one called God.
Jesus called His disciples. 
Matthew 10:1 records the calling of disciples of Jesus, “And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.” (Matthew 10:1)
Today, unlike the disciples of Jesus, the self-acclaimed disciples of today live life by the word of God in the head, not in the heart.
Romans 8:28-29 testifies, to the called, “… to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.” 
Are you called by self, by a certain man, or by God?
The called one by God moves obediently by the word of God for direction.
Once Jesus gave directions to the disciple in the journey, “Provide neither gold nor silver nor copper in your money belts, 10 nor bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor staffs; for a worker is worthy of his food.” (Matthew 10:9-10)
As a called one, does the direction of Jesus sound familiar to you?
The called one that obeys the direction of God will be connected to God not to become trapped but to arrive at the center of divine assignment in life.
However, answering the calling of God will mount with challenges, but obedience to God will deliver in it all. Psalm 34:19 encourages, “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all.” 
In the journey of answering the calling of God, mockery will mount against you to discourage but, the miracle of victory will answer.
Also, stagnation will delay in the journey of answering to the calling of God, but with obedience to God, the motion to arrive at the divine assignment is certain.
Answering to the calling of God is the identity of love for God. 
God calls out of His goodness and lovingkindness. 
God is mindful of all to crown all with glory and honor. (Psalm 8:4-5) Unfortunately, by the lack of knowledge, man does not know the blessing of the calling of God. Psalm 49:20 buttresses, “A man who is in honor, yet does not understand, is like the beasts that perish.” 
The calling of God is for a glorious destiny to arrive at the center of the divine assignment. 
The journey of glorious destiny is a departure from iniquity.
Glorious destiny has its foundation in righteousness. 
In righteousness, there is the blessing of God with favor as a shield of God. (Psalm 5:12)  
Do you know what it takes to engage the delivery of glorious destiny?
Walking in righteousness is all that it takes to engage the delivery of glorious destiny.
Answer the calling of God not to live a life of waste.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable your answering to His calling.

FAITH CAPSULE: There is a need to hear the word of God regularly.

Proverbs 4

One that hears the word of God, able to give self to observe the word of God that one hears will know to obey, doing according to the word of God.
To observe is to see, to receive, and become what one sees in the word.
Deuteronomy 12:28 records, “Observe and obey all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you and your children after you forever when you do what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God.” 
Hear to observe and obey the word of God. 
God also points it out to 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 all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” (Joshua 1:8) 
In life, know to meditate on the word of God day and night that is a key to observe and to do (obey) the word of God to experience the manifestation of the promise of God.
Psalm 33:4 admonishes, “For the word of the LORD is right, and all His work is done in truth.”  The word of God is right, and it is true for you to hear and hold on to the truth. Without any doubt, no weapon formed against one that observes and obeys the truth in the word of God diligently.
What one hears to observe and obey in the word of God is what will carry one through in the daily walk also through the journey of life. 
The word of God is direction, deliverance, protection, and preservation. There is a need to hear the word of God regularly.
The Psalmist testifies in Psalm 143:8,” Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning. For in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk for I lift up my soul to You.” The Psalmist demonstrates that hearing, observing, and obeying God in the morning is what makes the difference for the day. When one begins to make provision for hearing from the word of God first in the morning, trusting with hope in God will be activated for daily endeavors. 
Also, what man hears in the morning will be like a compass to navigate through daily challenges. 
The word of God that you hear in the morning will be accompanying your journey. ?
The word of God will show the way through the day, and it will also be in place to deliver one in the face of the enemy.
No one walks in the way of God to become a victim of the enemy. 
More so, those who walk in His way will arrive at their expected end. 
Give self to hearing, observing to obey, and be set in the promise of God.

Prayer for today: Ask that you are enabled to give yourself to the word of God continually. 

FAITH CAPSULE: Do not delay by denying the entrance of the Word of God.

Matthew 8

The Word of God comes with direction to receive and believe for deliverance and preservation when faithfully engaged.
Word is enough to heal. Naaman, a commander of the army of the king of Syria, had leprosy challenges. However, when the Word of God sounded for him, he could not receive and believe as directed, to experience the termination of his leprosy. 
Elisha told Naaman to go and wash in the Jordan seven times for the cleansing of his leprosy, but he refused and could not accept the direction for his healing instead, “Naaman became furious, and went away and said, “Indeed, I said to myself, ‘He will surely come out to me, and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place, and heal the leprosy.’” (2 Kings 5:11) Naaman struggled to receive, to believe as directed but later went back to get cleansed as directed. 
Learn not to deny yourself from timely deliverance by not receiving to believe the Word of God. 
Psalm 107:20 records the activity of the Word of God, “He sent His word and healed them and delivered them from their destructions.” 
What is denying you or discouraging you not to receive and to believe the Word of God to address your challenge?
Keep in mind that the Word of God is the same and not changed from the beginning of time. John 1:1-3 records the description of the Word of God, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him, nothing was made that was made.”  
The Word of God will terminate a challenge in the life of one that receives and believes in the Word of God. Jesus is the living Word of God that answers for the ones that will receive and believe in God.
It was the Word of God that healed the servant of a centurion.
When Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him for healing on behalf of his servant that was lying sick and paralyzed. Jesus responded with His plan to go to the house of the centurion. 
The centurion answered Jesus, “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.” (Matthew 8:8) Eventually, the centurion received and believed the Word of God for the healing of his servant. 
The Word of God is to terminate a challenge for anyone that is definitely able to receive, to believe healing and deliverance. 
Jesus saw the faith of the centurion with action without any doubt, and He reacted to the centurion in Matthew 8:13, “Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.”
Are you delaying your healing deliverance? 
Do not delay by denying the entrance of the Word of God to work for you.

Prayer for today: Ask from God that you will know to receive and believe the Word of God.

FAITH CAPSULE: Know to be doing good to experience the move of God.

2 Kings 4:8-17

One doing good is investing for the self to be in the position to experience the visitation of God. 
Always know to do good when the situation demands to do good.
James 4:17 encourages the reason to do know to do good, “Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.” 
One that knows to do good but not to do good gives self to sin.
Doing good is among the fruit of the spirit. Galatians 5:22 states, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness.” Romans 12:9, “…Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:15, “See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all.” 2 Thessalonians 3:13, “But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.” Hebrews 13:16, “But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.”
Give yourself to investing good at all times to reap from the visitation of God.
From henceforth, begin to do good for the glory of God.
Doing good from the depth of heart will provoke caring with a glaring action.
It is worth doing good by acting with care, knowing fully well that what you are doing is in the name of God and for the glory of God.
A Shunammite woman, ignorantly invested in doing good to the man of God in her location, 2 Kings 4:9-10 records the doing of the Shunammite woman, “And she said to her husband, ‘Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God who passes by us regularly. Please, let us make a small upper room on the wall; and let us put a bed for him there, and a chair and a lampstand; so it will be, whenever he comes to us, he can turn in there.’” 
The Shunammite woman made life comfortable for the man of God.
The man of God did not look away but acknowledge the Shunamite woman by sending his servant, “…Say now to her, ‘“Look, you have been concerned for us with all this care. What can I do for you? Do you want me to speak on your behalf to the king or to the commander of the army?”’ (2 Kings 4:13) 
Elisha later realized the bareness of the Shunamite woman and eventually prayed over her life in 2 Kings 3:16, “About this time next year, you shall embrace a son.”
The Shunammite woman invested in doing good in the name of God and was able to reap to receive the blessing of the womb. 
The Shunammite woman became a mother in the Old age of her husband.
Truly one that knows to do good will reap from the blessing of God.
Know to be doing good to experience the move of God over your life.

Prayer for today: Ask that God will enable you to be doing good all the days of your life.
