FAITH CAPSULE: Pray the word of God that does not return void to Him.

Acts 6

Praying the word of God will provoke the hand of God to remember with favor and visit with salvation. 
Acts 6:4 informs all, “but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
How will one pray the word that does not gain entrance into one that is praying before God? Interestingly, Psalm 119:130 admonishes, “The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.”
The Bible identifies the simple as the believer.
Psalm 116:16 testifies, “The Lord preserves the simple…”
Proverbs 14:15 confirms, “The simple believes every word…”
Today, set before God as hour self-deliverance, turn to God with trust and hope that God shall not ignore your prayer.
PRAYER is the key to move forward with God, living life before God, and not being far from God that is near with all.
Get to pray the word of God below:
1. Romans 10:3 records, “For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.”
Ask God to delete every trace of ignorant of not living life before you permanently.
Ask that God enable you to be submissive to you in every area of life.
Ask God to take charge of the days He has given you that you concentrated to Him. (He created all to live life for His glory, He is not a slave master but a saving master)
2. Ask that you shall not be a faith failure all the days He has given you.
Ask that you shall be a vessel of strengthening the life of your family, your loved ones. (Jesus prayed for Peter that his faith not fail. Luke 22:32 records, “But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.”)
3. Ask God to enable you, that you be awake in every route of His deliverance and preservation, not be trapped but to experience His move in your life. (In John 5:1-7, documents the paralyzed man by the Sheep Gate a pool, called in Hebrew, Bethesda. Many are getting their healing, but a man for 38 years could not gain his healing until his engagement with Jesus.) 
4. 2 Timothy 2:3 records, “You, therefore, must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier.”
Ask from God that in the challenging days, God shall enable you not to be entangled in the affairs of life but to focus on Him continually, pleasing Him.
Ask that God, in His mercy to disconnect you from every line that is communicating wrong to lead you wrong before God.
Ask against all that is complicating your life before God ceased.
Also, confusion forces against your answering to the calling of God be separated away from you.

Prayer for today: Ask that God will give heed to your prayer.

FAITH CAPSULE: Prayer before God is asking from God.

James 4

Paul admonishes, “but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.” (Act 6:4) 
Give yourself to prayer and His word. 
God is faithful, and He will answer yes, no, or wait.
Praying before God is a key to open up a solution for challenges when not pray a miss. James 4:3 warns against praying a miss, “You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.”
Pray with understanding. Occasional praying is not praying continually.
Let praying before God become your way of life that is waiting on God continually.
God is a good God.
Anyone waiting on God shall experience that God is the unchanging changer that reverses irreversible.
God is God that waits to act for those that wait on Him. (Isaiah 64:4)
God will not ignore one that prayerfully waits for Him but will remember with favor and visits with salvation.
In this season challenging time, wait on God with prayer.
Prayer before God is asking from God.
Is there any of your way before God that is not right but wrong to be a hindrance?   
Ask from God to search you, to know your ways, to correct and lead you.
David, a man after the heart of God, knew to wait on God by asking: “Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” (Psalm 139:23-24)
Prayerfully, waiting on God to lead you in an unfailing direction.
The way to have the rest of God is by praying before God and not going astray. 
Going astray is rooted in the heart. 
Manifestly, any heart that goes astray will miss in the way of God. 
God is a good God, and to end in an astray way is not of God but the evidence not to wait on God.
God is a God of time and process.
Time belongs to God. In praying, wait, remain focus on God for His timing to get an answer from Him. not by the time of the world. 
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 time of God is perfect, and His process is a preparation for where He has time for everyone to be. 
Praying before God demands to remain unmoving, inactive, or in a state of repose, as until expected manifests. 
With your prayer, it is worthy to put off further activity to remain focus on God.
God is a God that gives unfailing attention to those that call on Him. 

Prayer for today: Ask God to enable you with continual prayer.

FAITH CAPSULE: Are you aware if you are far or close to God? 

Exodus 33

Walking far from God is walking in the avenue to experience failure, to fall to falter in life.
Are you walking in the word of God or by the world you are living in today?
It does not matter who you are or what title you answer, but to walk far away from God is the avenue to fall.
In every walk of life, walking close with God demands observing the way of God.
The way of God is the presence of God. Proverbs 23:26 informs, “My son, give me your heart, And let your eyes observe my ways.” God is in His ways, and His way is His presence.
Seek God diligently the evidence of walking in His way, keeping close and not far from God.
The prayer of Moses before God and the response of God speak to what it means to walk close and not far from God records, “Then Moses said to the Lord, “See, You say to me, ‘Bring up this people.’ But You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found grace in My sight.’ Now, therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people.” And He said, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” (Exodus 33:12-14) 
The prayer of Moses states, “Show me your way that I may know you” testifies that God is in His way.
Moses asked right before God.
The answer of God to Moses confirms that the way of God and the rest of God is the presence of God.
One with title or no title should not assume to be close to God and not ask for the way of God. Just like Moses, know to ask for the ways of God for your life.
Search your heart continually to know if you are far or close to God.
Give your heart to God to observe His way, the evidence of walking close to God.
Walking close to God is not to impress your world but to press on God to gain and retain the presence of God continually.
Where are you before God?
The work of the individual is the walk that counts before God.
What is your work before God that keeps you close to God?
Jesus asked, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?”
Jesus responds, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” (John 6:28-29)
Do you have work before God, and God identifies your work?
It is your work, your belief in God, that draws you close or far from God.
In the challenging days, walk with God by giving yourself to the word of God continually.

Prayer for today: Ask that God enables you to walk close to Him.

FAITH CAPSULE: Give earnest heed to the word of God.

Daniel 1

A failure to give earnest heed to the word of God will lead to taking a distance from God. 
Keeping distance from God is getting closer to the position of self-destruction.
Earnest implies having a purpose and being steadily and soberly eager to pursue.
Heed means paying attention, listening to, and following the word. 
To give earnest heed is to be purposeful and to be giving attention to the word of God.
The heart is where purpose takes place.
The heart is where listening takes place.
Be mindful of it that the heart is where God sees the doing of all man under heaven.
Hebrews 2:1-4 records the need to give heed to the word of God,
“Therefore, we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away. For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him, God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?”
Are you giving heed to the word of God?
One with earnest heed for God shall be purposeful for God.
Daniel Purposed in His heart.
Daniel was more earnest in heed for God, purposed in his heart for God to gain the favor of God.
Daniel 1:8-9 records: “But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore, he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. Now God had brought Daniel into the favor and goodwill of the chief of the eunuchs.” 
David had heart after the heart of God. 
God will always locate any that earnestly heed to His word.
The reaction of God to the violation of Saul testifies the heart of David for God saying: “…I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My own heart, who will do all My will.” (Acts 13:22)
There is no compromise, but with no excuse, all must give earnest heed to the word of God.
The word of God is not to convince anyone.
The word of God demands commitment from all.
Also, the word of God is not for decoration but declaration. 
In life, it is the way of all that declares the word that is carried by all.
All should come out from RELIGION in the mouth, but give heart to the word of God. A failure to give earnest heed to the word of God will lead to distance from God but closer to self-destruction.

Prayer for today: Ask to enable giving heed to the word of God.

FAITH CAPSULE: Give yourself to having faith and patience.

Hebrews 11

Living life demands having faith as fuel, and patience should be the key to the ignition. 
Hebrews 11:1 records faith as “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) 
Faith has a source. Romans 10:17 records, “…faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”  Take to mind that the Word of God which comes can also cease from coming when there is disengagement from hearing and hearing by the Word of God. 
Living life demands constant engagement with faith and patience according to the word of God. 
Living life with faith and patience, the Word of God gives life to the just ones. Habakkuk 2:4 buttresses, “…the just shall live by his faith.” All that pertains to living life is living 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 get saved by faith through grace (Ephesians 2:8) 
Patience with faith or faith with patience is crucial to living life to gain and retain the presence of God.
Patience is the ability or willingness to suppress restlessness or annoyance when confronted with delay. 
Patience is steady perseverance (steady persistence)
God is Longsuffering God the character of having patience.
Numbers 14:18, records of God, “The Lord is longsuffering and abundant in mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but He by no means clears the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.”  
Are you patient and longsuffering in the journey of life?
Colossians 1:11 buttresses, “Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy” 
By living life, the level of patience that one possesses will testify to the blessing of God in the life of such.
Lack of patience denies blessing and often leads to self-destruction.
Do you claim faith but lack patience or vice versa?
Among the scriptural verses that shed light on the importance of faith and patience, “…you do not become sluggish but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” (Hebrews 6:12). 
For a believer to inherit the promises of God, being patient with faith is a must. 
The Parable of the Sower by Jesus points out that it is through patience that bearing fruit is the possibility. Luke 8:15 states, “But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.” 
Luke 21:19 also record, “By your patience possess your souls.” 
Give yourself patience in this journey of life, provoking more of the blessing of God.
With faith in the Word of God, having patience yields manifestation. James 1:4 confirms, “But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.” 
Patience is of God. (John 6:28-29) In life, have patience. 

Prayer for today: Ask to be enabled with having patience as a way of living life.
