FAITH CAPSULE: Seek God diligently to experience His divine visitation.

Genesis 18

The desire to find God are the following points:
WALK IN OBEDIENCE
Living in obedience to God is to retain the presence of God.
To be obedient to God is the evidence of faithfulness and not be a vessel of evil agenda.
Be obedient to God.
John 14:21 records, “He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.”
BE SPIRITUAL
To be spiritual is to be prepared to receive from God by separating self from the world. For example, spending time in the word of God continually is taking a position to experience God’s visitation in His word. God gave His word to Moses for His people, “Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes.  And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the Lord will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.” (Exodus 19:10-11) Prescription in the word of God was to prepare the Israelites and be ready to experience God. With sin, no one can reach God.
To be spiritual is to experience God.
BE PRAISE FULL BEFORE GOD
Praising and giving thanks to God is like being pregnant with the wonders of God. Jesus gave thanks to God to get provision in the place of lack. (John 6:6-11)
Experiencing the wonder of God in praising and giving thanks to God will expose one to the presence of God. Psalm 92:1 states, “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High…” with praise and thanksgiving, head never dry of oil as confirmed in Psalm 92:10, “But my horn You have exalted like a wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.” Be thankful to gain the presence of God.
ENGAGE EFFECTIVE PRAYER
One with effective prayer is to shut in with God and shut out the world.
All should seek God diligently at the prayer altar to experience His divine visitation. Jeremiah 29:13-14 records, “And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.  I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity…” Without a doubt, prayer is an opening key to assessing the presence of God for His wonders.
BE SPIRITUALLY SENSITIVE
Spiritually sensitive shall be spiritually awake and not miss out on divine visitation, the position to experience divine assessment of God.
With spiritual sensitivity, sanctify your environment (where you stand, sit, or walk) talk wise and be watchful. Abraham could not miss unexpected divine visitation when he received the message of the son of promise and the message to deliver Lot from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. (Genesis 18)

Prayer for today: Ask to live to encounter His divine visitation.

FAITH CAPSULE: To experience divine visitation is not to live a wasted life.

Genesis 12

Divine (Godly) visitation of God is an asset in the life journey.
The divine visitation can be on the literal platform, the word of God.
One available at His visitation is possible for such one to experience termination of life struggle.
One not available is evidence to have missed the visitation of God not to engage in the calling assignment in life.
When God visits one, such shall surely reposition in the life journey.
Genesis 50:24, “And Joseph said to his brethren, “I am dying; but God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land to the land of which He swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
God visited Israelites in the bondage of over four hundred years.
The visitation of God brought them out of bondage.
Abraham had unannounced divine visitation in the word of God, and he was changed in the position of God for him.
There was no record that Abraham saw God in the physical. The divine visitation of God was in the word of God, His presence.
Abraham had an encounter to experience the wonder of God.
The word of God unplugged him from his country, family, and father’s house to an unknown land. (Genesis 12:1-2)
Abraham’s encounter with divine visitation replaced him with greatness to the glory of God.
Moses had no plan to return to Egypt after he escaped a murder charge against him for killing an Egyptian.
Divine visitation of God repositioned him for the glory of God.
Exodus 3:1-4 documents, “Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not consumed.  Then Moses said, “I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.” So, when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses, Moses!” And he said, “Here I am.”  
Moses’ divine encounter was in the word of God, and he was led into a divine assignment for his life.
Giving oneself continually to the word of God is taking a position not to miss out on the visitation of God.
Through the pages of the Bible, the story of life visitation of God.
One who knows understanding of God will make the secret of a dwelling place and not miss out on the divine assignment under heaven.”
To experience divine visitation is not to live a wasted life.

Prayer for today: Ask for visitation of God and not live a wasted life.

FAITH CAPSULE: Encounter His presence and experience His wonder.

Psalm 91

The word of God is God.
Seek God ardently to encounter His presence and experience His wonder.
Encountering the presence of God to experience His wonder is in the word of God.
However, the word of God is secret but not hidden to those who seek God for encounter to experience God. Isaiah 45:19 testifies, “I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth; I did not say to the seed of Jacob, ‘Seek Me in vain’; I, the Lord, speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.”
Seeking to encounter His presence for His wonders demands ardent diligence in His word.
Undoubtedly, seeking God in His word shall not be in vain.
Are you seeking God casually seeking God your way or diligently?
Seek God diligently in His word as a dwelling, as stated in Psalm 91:1, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
The word of God is the place to encounter and experience the presence of God if man will seek the word of God diligently.
Bible records wonder of God in His word: Psalmist testifies wonder of God in the word of God, “You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word.” (Psalm 119:114)Seeking for a hiding place in God as the shield is wonderful. God as the shield is the promise to be gained by dwelling and abiding in the word of God with earnest hope, not by mouth.
All should take the word of God that has never failed, as spoken in Isaiah 55:11, “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
Psalm 119:116 reveals a secret to be encountered by one who seeks God, “Uphold me according to Your word, that I may live; and do not let me be ashamed of my hope.”
One seeking the secret of God will have testimony as Psalm 119:133 records, “Direct my steps by Your word, and let no iniquity have dominion over me.”
To give attention to knowing and understanding the word of God is seeking God for wonders in the word of God.
In this wicked world, the peace of God is secret and is obtainable for one through Jesus (the word of God).
Philippians 4:7 states, “… and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”  Peace of God does not happen by accident but by engaging in the secret of God.
Engaging the secret (word) of God is engaging His presence to experience the wonders of God, which do not fail.

Prayer for today: Ask to be enabled to seek God diligently to have the encounter of His wonders.

FAITH CAPSULE: The run out of the year is not the running out of timing of God.

Matthew 7

A believer in God must understand waiting on God to endure a period.
Waiting on God from the first month to the twelfth month of the year to receive from God is not a waste of time, whether there is the manifestation or not the expectation.
Understand to believe that there is nothing impossible for God to do.
One thing God cannot do is, God cannot fail.
Live life as a believer, not live by word of mouth answering as a believer.
Avoid not becoming an unbelieving acclaimed believer.
The word of God might sound foolish, but it never fails to deliver those who believe in His word. (1 Corinthians 1:21)
It is the word of God to ask, seek, and knock.
Asking, Seeking, and Knocking for answers to expectations at the appointed time of God is evidence of having faith in God and looking up to Jesus.
Hebrews 12:2 describes Jesus, “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 faith, gave the way of receiving from God 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)
Waiting on God demands trusting and hoping by asking, seeking, and knocking before getting the answer.
When there is no waiting on God rushing away from waiting to live a waste of life.
King Saul could not wait as instructed, and it was accounted to him as disobedient.
Obedience to God is to trust and hope by waiting 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 the need to wait and endure.
Waiting can be a delay but never a waste of time.
Remember, time belongs to God, but the clock is the creation of the world that will not intimidate God to act outside of His timing.
God testified about David when Saul failed to wait on God.
God spoke through Samuel for the disobedience of Saul, “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 to understand what it means as he consistently obeyed by waiting on God before making moves.
Understand that the delay of expectation this long is evidence of not the appointed time of God.

Prayer for today: Ask to be enabled with the understanding to live by waiting on God.

FAITH CAPSULE: All should desire to strive for the entrance of the word of God.

Exodus 16

Faith is described as “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1).
Faith has a source.
The Bible emphasizes the source of faith as stated,“…faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17).
Take to mind that the word of God which comes can also cease from coming when there is disengagement from hearing the word of God.
Are you hearing but not listening?
In this loud, wicked world, hearing but not listening to the word shall result in not giving attention to the word of God.
Loud going far or around is an earshot of the evidence of not hearing.
Word of God that gains entrance into man is the evidence of gaining faith.
All should desire to strive for the entrance of the word of God.
Allow the entrance of the word of God.
Psalm 119:130 records, “The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.”
Constantly engage the word of God to enter, and you grow in faith, able to please God.
Hebrews 11:6 states, “But without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”
Without a doubt, faith drives one to live by the word of God. Habakkuk 2:4 buttress, “…the just shall live by his faith.” All that pertains to living life is encased to live by the word of God (living by faith). The word states, we walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7); we watch, stand by faith (1 Corinthians 16:13); faith purifies the heart (Acts 15:9); we are saved by faith through grace (Ephesians 2:8). The word of God which is the source of faith answers to all area of living life.
Do you have faith? The word of God is proven; the word of God is the source of faith to live abundantly in the wicked world.
Jesus confirmed the need to live by the word of God when He quoted from Deuteronomy 8:3, “…man shall not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord.” (Matthew 4:4)
With challenges, the Israelites came out of the bondage of over four hundred years just by the word of God through Moses.
At a point of challenges, they complained about the lack of pots of meat and bread to the full.
God responded, “…Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you…” (Exodus 16:4)
God rained bread by the word of His mouth, not bread from the oven bakery, for the need of the Israelites.
In your challenges, have faith and not doubt; Live by faith, not sight.

Prayer for today: Ask that you be enabled to live by the word of God.
