ACKNOWLEDGE GOD

FAITH CAPSULE: God brought you this far, and His hand will keep you through.

IT IS NOT LATE
With God, it is never too late.
In life, it is not about how long it is taking you to receive from God the manifestation of your expectation but to give thanks to God for how far He has brought you.
Everybody gets from God, but no one gets everything.
The hand of God is able for all. 
Acknowledge God for His hand that is not short in keeping you.
Isaiah 59:1 records: “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, That it cannot save; Nor His ear heavy, That it cannot hear.”
Ask God to give you what you can handle, and appreciate Him with no complaint.
Listen, it is not late to wait on God.
Know to continue waiting on God.
Knowing to wait on God will not live a life of waste but live life for the glory of God.
This season, in all your going and coming, in all your endeavors, keep waiting on God continually.
Waiting on God is asking from God. 
Waiting on God will always lead to an unfailing direction of God.
The way to have the rest of God is in waiting on Him, and not waiting on Him is the way to go astray. 
God is a God of time and process. 
The time of God is not the same as the time of man, and the process of God is not like the process of man. 
The timing of God is perfect, and His process is a preparation for where He has time for everyone to be. 
Waiting on God can be defined as remaining unmoving until expected manifests. 
Waiting on God is also putting off further activity until later. 
Waiting on God usually entails staying for a short or long time and a definite purpose.
Without absolute trust in waiting on God, there will be no result for waiting on God. 
The Psalmist testifies, “O my God, I trust in You; let me not be ashamed; let not my enemies triumph over me. Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.” (Psalm 25:2-3) 
Trusting in God is what energizes waiting on Him. 
There is a consequence when waiting on God to know in the way of God.
Waiting on God will reveal where one is doing wrong in the right place.
Wait on God to know and correct what you are doing wrong in the place of doing right.
DO NOT FORGET
Forgetting what God has done? 
Do not be discouraged by the reason for the delay in your expectation from God. 
Importantly, know that delay is not a denial, but give yourself to Psalm 103:2, “Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits.” 
Blessing the name of God all the time and in all things is the evidence that one remembers Him. 

Prayer for today: Ask that God will enable you to disregard His timing over your life.

MAY 2022 FAITH MAIL

HE REMEMBERS 

This new month of the year, are you complaining before God, asking how long you wait with no manifestation of your expectation?
Be thankful to God, and appreciate how far God has brought you in life, not how long your expectation is yet to manifest.
Complaining is the expression of dissatisfaction that can position one for a painful journey in life.
The Israelites complained, and God responded, “The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in this wilderness…” (Numbers 14:29)
Pray not to be a victim of the spirit of complaint but pray that God shall remember you with favor and visit you with salvation. 
God does not forget but remembers.
Psalm 106:4 states, “Remember me, O Lord, with the favor You have toward Your people. Oh, visit me with Your salvation.”
What one asks is desires, and God deposits to gain desires.
The word of God encourages asking to receive. (Matthew 7:7)
This day, ask that God remember you with favor and visit you with salvation.
God does not forget but remembers to reverse irreversible challenges and visits with salvation.
WHEN GOD REMEMBERS TO DELIVER, HE WILL VISIT TO BRING ONE OUT OF BONDAGE.
The Israelites were in bondage for over four hundred years, and God remembers with a favor that gave freedom from the hand of Pharaoh.
With visitation was the stretch out-hand for deliverance. 
All should know to call on God to become remembered for deliverance.
When the Israelites cried out in bondage, God remembered them for deliverance from the bondage of Egypt.
Exodus 2:24 records, “So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.”
God does not forget but remembers.
Are you looking up to God to remember you with favor?
With the remembrance with favor, God visited with salvation when He committed His stretch-out hand to bring the Israelites out of the evil of Pharao of Egypt.
Exodus 3:20 records the visitation of God by His hand, “So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst, and after that, he will let you go.”
The hand of God brought the Israelites out of the evil bondage of Egypt with His mighty hand and an outstretched arm.
Are you looking outside of the remembrance and visitation of God over your life for deliverance and preservation?
Keep eyes on God, and have the expectation to be remembered and visited with salvation.
JESUS REMEMBERS HIS DISCIPLES THE SELF-LOCKED FROM FEAR.
When God remembers to open one up, He will visit to unlock such from self-locked because of fear.
The disciples of Jesus walked with Him, dined with Him, sat around Him, and listened to His word to know and understand what was to happen but not understand His word. 
After His crucifixion, they locked themselves in fear of the wicked ones despite His spoken word for them before His crucifixion.
Jesus remembered them to visit them. 
As they assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst and spoke peace to them. (John 20:19)
Jesus repeatedly remembered His disciples and visited them with salvation while they self-locked up because of fear.
Thomas, a disciple, asked for the signs of proof of the crucifixion to believe Jesus.
Jesus responded to Thomas, “Jesus said to him, “Thomas because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” (John 20:29) 
The response of Jesus to Thomas speaks to all acclaimed believers.
The disciples, acclaimed believers, lack the understanding to be free, the evidence of a lack of faith and not knowing the truth of God.
The grace and mercy God remembers with favor and visit with salvation for one not to become a victim of fear that terminates calling over the life of called ones.
Are you one that is self-locked up by the fear of the wicked, militating force against your life consciously or unconsciously?
Turn to God, calling for Him to remember you with favor and visit you with salvation, not become a victim of fear of the wicked world. 
Do you believe in Jesus?
Will you believe in Him with a desire for Him to remember you with favor and visit you for salvation?  
The word of God encourages, “but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.” (John 20:31)
The word of God is to be engaged for declaration, not for decoration. 
Romans 15:4 buttresses, “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.”
The word of God does not return to Him void.
With understanding, give yourself to the word of God continually, expecting Him to remember you with favor and visit you with salvation.
This month, continually ask that you will live life for God to experience His presence by Him remembering you.  

IGNORE NEGATIVITY

FAITH CAPSULE: Having a positive dream is bound to engage forces of negativity.

Genesis 37

Walk with God, walk before God by walking in God to ignore every negativity against your dream.
A dream can also be a succession of images, thoughts, or emotions passing through the mind during sleep. 
In the Bible, the young Joseph had a dream that revealed a journey with no direction of engaging his journey dream. 
Joseph had a dream full of ups and downs but eventually arrived at his journey dream.
Joseph had a dream, “There we were, binding sheaves in the field. Then behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright, and indeed your sheaves stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf.” (Genesis 37:7) The dream of Joseph sounds positive, but he received a negative response from his brothers.
Joseph, with no direction, had to pass through.
Do you have a dream engaging envy obstacles with negativity?
For the dream to come through, one has to pass through before arrival.
The dream of Joseph at age seventeen did not come to manifestation until he was thirty years old. 
With challenges, Joseph waited for thirteen years to have his dream come through. 
The Bible records that Israel (Jacob) loved Joseph more than all his children because he was the son of his old age. (Genesis 37:3) 
The dream of Joseph encountered hate; envy took a stand against him, and he lost his base. 
Unknowingly, Joseph began the journey of his dream when he passed through the pit of lack and went into slavery before arriving at the land of his dream center of manifestation. 
Interestingly, his brothers were the agents of hate and evil that wanted to derail and deny Joseph his dream.
The brothers of Joseph were also unknowingly the ones that set to bring his dream to manifestation. 
Trust and hope in God for all your step to arrive at the center of your divine assignment. 
Know that the wicked will not derail you regardless of the delay.
When one proposes, God disposes.
God is the Almighty One, and there is none besides Him. 
As a believer of the living word of God, know this day that God sees all. Today, make it a point to be looking to God in all situations. 
Genesis 41:46 points out, “Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.” 
A dream of thirteen years was with the journey that seemed impossible not become manifest because of negativity set against Joseph.
Does your dream seem like no manifestation?
With God, nothing is impossible.
A journey that began at age seventeen of Joseph did not get him to the top until he was thirty years old. 
The timing of God is different from the timing of all. 
God does not keep to the timing of any but keeps all in His own time. 
It does not matter how long it takes to crawl out of the pit, but God will bring the dream to manifestation.

Prayer for today: Ask God to see you through at His appointed time in your life.

THE PLACE OF WICKED

FAITH CAPSULE: The heart is the place for the wicked to establish.

Psalm 73

The place of wickedness is in the heart that is wickedness has its seat in the heart.
Jeremiah 17:9-10 made it known that the heart is the seat (center) of the wicked, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it? I, the LORD, search the heart; I test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.” 
The deceitful heart is the heart of wickedness that is the identity of the believer or unbeliever.
It is certain all are deceived, but not God.
Can you search if you are wicked? 
The acclaimed believer should not be with a wicked heart.
Psalm 73 identifies what the heart of a wicked one is like:  
Pride serves as their necklace.
Violence covers them like a garment.
Their eyes bulge with abundance.
They have more than a heart could wish. 
They increase in riches.
They scoff and speak wickedly concerning oppression.
They speak loftily (arrogantly)
They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walks through the earth.
Are you an acclaimed believer with a head full of the word of God but empty in the heart where wickedness occupies?
In these wicked days, the sentence of God will answer with speed because God sees it all.
Are your ways rooted in wickedness?
The activity of the wicked is to do evil.
Genesis 6:4 records the word of God about the wicked, “Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”
Are you questioning the acts of the wicked ones?
God pays attention to the acts of the evil-doing, and God sees all.
Are you wicked?
The way of the wicked can appear better and glamorous. 
However, none should focus on the acts of the wicked ones but focus on God continually, with a mind that stays on God.
Only God is the judge, and all should allow God to judge as He pleases.
There is no judge but God.
Are you observing the activities of the wicked world, or are you a part of the wickedness of the world?
To you, does it appear as if wicked doing will last forever?
God sees it all, and appointed time will respond to the wicked ones and their activities under the heaven.
The book of Ecclesiastes 8:11-13 speaks warning for a heart that is wise not to engage evil, “Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him. But it will not be well with the wicked; nor will he prolong his days, which are as a shadow, because he does not fear before God.”
All should make amends not to be of wickedness. 
God sees it all.

Prayer for today: Ask against having a place for wickedness in the heart.

HEAR TO SEE

FAITH CAPSULE: Hear and see in the word of God that sounds in your direction.

Jeremiah 1:1-16

The word of God is alive and active.
The documentation of the crucifixion of Jesus is clear to see what Jesus went through in the challenging world as the producer of the movie called The Passion of Christ presented in action.
After the producer must have read or heard the word, he produced the movie as if he was present at the time of Jesus.
To hear and see in the word of God will know to do before God.
It is not enough to hear the word when the picture of what the word says does not take root in the heart.
God wants us to hear and see when He speaks to us.
Have you been studying (not just reading) but not able to gain an understanding of the word of God? 
Genesis 1:3-4 records, “…God said, “let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good…”  
If God can see in His spoken word, definitely God expects all to see in His word. 
For all the creation of God, until there is an ability to hear and see in His living word, none will be able to receive from His word.
All that Jeremiah needed to resume his divine assignment was to see in the word of God; otherwise, he would have missed the calling of his life. “Then the LORD put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the LORD said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, to destroy and to throw down, to build and to plant.” (Jeremiah 1:9-10) Jeremiah received the word of God and was able to see the purpose and plan of his life. 
The word of God you carry to the heart is the word you see as the power of God to bring about manifestation to the glory of God.
Moses did not move in the direction of God for His life until he was able to turn aside and see in the word of God. Exodus 3:3-4 records, “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.” (Exodus 3:3-4) 
Moses heard and saw in the word of direction to engage his divine assignment to the glory of God. 
The word you hear and keep to the heart you will do.
Proverbs 4:20-21 admonishes all, “My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart.”
Give ear to hear, to see in the word of God. 

Prayer for today: Ask to begin to see whenever the word of God sounds in your direction.
