KNOW IT!

FAITH CAPSULE: The manner of praising God matters as the mark of being mindful of God 

Psalm 47

With understanding, praising, thanking God will stand before God as a reasonable sacrifice the evidence of seeking God diligently. 
The Bible testifies, “For God is the King of all the earth; Sing praises with understanding.” (Psalm 47:7) 
In life, giving an understanding to seeking God will grant access to God that is waiting to act for those who seek Him.
Are you praising or giving thanks to God with understanding?
Understanding, praising, and thanking God should be rooted in the heart but not at the tips of the mouth. 
Praising God is placing God gloriously high.
Continually praising or thanking God is seeking to be raised before the presence of God.
Praising God is not entertainment to impress a man but a vehicle to enter and locate God for His presence. Psalm 100:4 points it out, “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise…” 
To be gaining entrance to the presence of God is like praise worship that is sacrificing God diligently.
Praising God is not a display of talent before God but a way of gaining a place in the presence of God. 
Psalm 22:3 buttresses, “But You are holy, Enthroned in the praises of Israel.” 
Give self to praising God with understanding to gain His presence.
One with the life of praising God should be the character that positions a man in the presence of God. 
Psalm 50:23 records, “Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.” 
Give God glory by living a life of praising God for His.
Praising God with self-consciousness is understanding and knowledge to come out of self to give to God that creates all for His pleasure.
Psalm 69:30 records, “I will praise the name of God with a song and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.” Giving self to praising God is seeking God diligently with the expectation to be raised before God. 
The seeking of God by King David is evident in the bringing of the ark of God back to his city. 
Bible records, “Then David danced before the Lord with all his might, and David was wearing a linen ephod. So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet. Now as the ark of the Lord came into the City of David, Michal, Saul’s daughter, looked through a window and saw King David leaping and whirling before the Lord…” (2 Samuel 6:14-16)
The manner of praising God matters as the mark of being mindful of God by David. He was praise-full and testified his way of life before God.
Are you praise-full before God?

Prayer for today: Ask from God the understanding of praising God.

BELIEVE IN GOD

FAITH CAPSULE: Worshipping God is the evidence of believing God.  

Genesis 12

The will of God is for all to serve God, worshiping God. 
Worshipping God will separate to God. 
One with the love of things in the world denies not worshiping God.
Are you giving to worshipping God or the things of the world?
Worshipping God will engage the will of God to abide in God. 
1 John 2:15-17 buttresses, “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” 
Worshipping God is the evidence of believing God. 
Worshipping God is a way to find God. 
Are you seeking God while surrounded by the filth of the wicked world? Separate yourself to God, serve God diligently to locate and gain His presence.
God demands all to seek Him diligently because He rewards those who seek Him diligently. (Hebrews 11:6) 
Separation unto His command is always a high order of one that worships Him obediently. 
Abraham separated himself to God as commanded by God when he answered the calling of God to depart his country, his family, to an unknown land to him. (Genesis 12:1-2) 
Every separation to God counts before God and will count for an uncommon assignment. 
The separation of Abraham to the word of God was accounted to him for righteousness because it was evidence that he believed God. (Romans 4:3)
When a man conspicuously responds to the word of God by denying engagement to the love of the world, it becomes a separated one to God. 
Give yourself to worshipping God. 
Separation to God is the avenue that leads to assessing and possessing all that God has in place for any that can obediently separate to Him. 
God does not force to be worshipped but expects all to worship to exist for Him.
|However, God will call one to give to worship while answering belongs to man. 
Abraham could not substitute worshiping God for any things of the world.
As an acclaimed believer, do you live life worshiping God?
What is it of the world that has taken the center of your life? 
What is it that is denying you not to worship God?
Until a man is empty of things of the world, there will be no space for God to occupy such.
Worshipping God is worthy for all. 
Revelation 4:11 identifies, “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.”
Live life for God!

Prayer for today: Ask that you will know to live the life of worshipping God.

GOD REMEMBERS

FAITH CAPSULE: With faith, not with doubt, know to remind God.

Genesis 8

God sees all is the reason why He cannot forget but remembers.
2 Chronicles 16:9 informs all, “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore, from now on you shall have wars.”
Do you know God to put Him remembrance for your expectation?
God is the perfect creator that does not forget but will remember all. Isaiah 43:25-26 points out the reason one should know God for His goodness by reminding Him not because He forgets, “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins. Put Me in remembrance; Let us contend together; State your case, that you may be acquitted.”
Get to know God in His word by giving yourself to the word of God.
Through the pages of the Bible, it is clear that God does not forget but expects all to remind Him.
He Is God that remembers.
For example, God that rained and it flooded could not forget.
The sin in the days of Noah, forty days and night rained, and God could not forget.
God remembered Noah in the flood of water of sin and affliction and subsided.
Genesis 8:1 records, “Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided.”
God waits to act for waiting on Him.
One in time of challenges should know to remind God that does not forget to deliver.
Ask, seek and Knock is the order of God for all not to be discouraged from seeking God for His intervention. (Matthew 7:7)
Ask, seek, and knock is to Pray, to watch with expectation for manifestation.
Asking is waiting, and one should ask from Him according to His word.
King David was a man after the heart of God, and he knows to remind God. Psalm 25:6-7 records, “Remember, O Lord, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindness, For they are from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness sake, O Lord.”
Besides King David, Psalmist also reminds God in Psalm 106:4, saying, “Remember me, O Lord, with the favor You have toward Your people. Oh, visit me with Your salvation.” 
All should learn from the word of God to know and do, to claim the promise of God.

Prayer for today: 
Ask that flood of affliction that does not represent God in your life be subsided permanently in the name of Jesus.
Ask against the rain of affliction in your life.
Ask God to remember you with favor and visit you with salvation.

STRIVE TO ARRIVE

FAITH CAPSULE: Walk in the order of God to arrive at the calling of God. 

Numbers 20

In the word of God, get yourself in order.
It is not a choice but a must to line self in order with the word of God.
The word of God is His order for all to live life in the order of God.
Living life in the word of God is consistently constant to bring orderliness to life.
Are you approaching life keeping the order of God, not to fail?
In the word of God, there is no compromise to displace order with the disorder.
Do not misplace order with the disorder. 
As an acclaimed believer of the word of God, there should not be an excuse to give self to disorder. 
In the journey of life, know to gain, to maintain orderliness to experience a positive result.
With God in place as the leader, there should be order in place. 
Will you allow God to take the leadership of your life?
The Bible records the promise to keep man not to miss out on the order of God:
Psalm 32:8 encourages the promise in the word of God that says, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.”
Proverbs 6:22 records, “When you roam, they will lead you; When you sleep, they will keep you; And when you awake, they will speak with you.” 
God waits to lead in the life of all that will give self to His leadership, not to be a victim of disorder in life.
God is God, and He is God that acts for those who wait for Him.
Today, understand to know that the order of God is direction, like the password that will access one to a breakthrough in the journey of life. 
In life, challenges such as opposition, hindrance, confusion are inevitable, but giving self to the order of God is the overcoming way.
Do not walk in disorder.
Walking in disorder will deny one from getting to the promise of God.
In life, no one is above giving self to the order of God.
Once, Moses received an order from God, but he took to disorder.
Numbers 20:8 records the order of God for Moses, “Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.”  
Moses gave himself to disorder when he struck instead of speaking to the rock, and he called the people rebels. 
To be out of the order of God is to be out of direction to the promise of God. 
Moses was disordered and could not lead the Israelites into the Promised Land.
There is no status before God that will excuse for walking in disorder, outside of the order of God.
Walk in the order, the word of God, to arrive at the calling of God, the promise of God. 

Prayer for today: Ask for the mercy of God to keep you in place of His order.

BEHAVE THE WORD OF GOD

FAITH CAPSULE: Be living in the word of God to behave the word of God.

Deuteronomy 28

Obedience to the word of God is to be living the word of God, to behave the word of God.
Obedience to the word of God is not a choice but a must. 
Among the right choices to make in life is to live obediently by the word of God.
Also, among the wrong choices to make in life is not to live disobediently to the word of God.
In obedient to the word of God are the blessings of God, while disobedient to the word of God will provoke curses.
The same word of God yesterday is the same word of God today and forever. 
In blessings, the word records, “…if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. 2 And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you because you obey the voice of the Lord your God.” (Deuteronomy 28:1-2) 
In curses, the word records, “If you do not carefully observe all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and awesome name, THE LORD YOUR GOD, 59 then the Lord will bring upon you and your descendant’s extraordinary plagues—great and prolonged plagues—and serious and prolonged sicknesses.” (Deuteronomy 28:58-59)
The point here is to live a life of obedience to the word of God.
All should know to observe the word of God. 
With understanding, to observe (seeing and seeing) the word of God shall see in the word of God.
One that observes to see in the word of God shall receive the word of God.
In life, it is what is received that belongs to one.
The word of God identifies what it takes to know and obey the word God.
God spoke to Joshua after the death of Moses and gave insight into what it takes to know and obey the word of God stating.
Joshua 1:8 records, “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.” 
Meditating, not memorizing the word of God Day and night, shall be able to observe (see) and do according to the word of God.
Without exception, all should live life according to the word of God.
Disobedience is a passage to self-destruction.
Obedient to the command of God is not just with the mouth, not lip service. 
Without the fear of God, there will be no obedience to His word. 
Obedience and fear of God should be residing in the heart of all, a way of living life. 
Constantly hear, see in the word of God to receive and become of the word of God.

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you to be living life by His word.
