WONDERWORLD CAPSULES BY Apostle Jordan Akada
SATURDAY 13TH MARCH 2021
TOPIC: INTIMACY WITH GOD
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. (Col.3:16)
Personal intimacy with God keeps a believer’s soul in shape. It is very crucial for every true follower of Christ to pursue personal intimacy at any cost as a favour to self and purpose. This intimate connection with Christ revitalizes your motivation for services and provides the raw materials for tenacity and fulfillment.
The compelling demands of the day deplete a Christian’s spiritual stamina, making him or her feel dry, empty and exhausted. But there is a life-saving power, and that is the word of Christ.
It is intimacy with Christ that invigorates the believer so that he/she can victoriously meet the rigors of his/her task with restored focus and vigor.
To deepen your intimacy with Christ, you must seek solitude with the word. An hour of solitude in the Word could help us take captive of every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ (2 Cor.10:5)
Intimacy with God clears spiritual, emotional, and relational cobwebs out of the corners of our lives. Obligations and expectations keep one’s calendar loaded. In as much as you cannot escape your ‘time table’, why not use it for what really matters. Schedule time with God just as intentional as you would schedule your shopping.
Intimacy with God brings God into your reality. Personal intimacy is God’s wake-up call. This closeness revitalizes your sense of direction, stimulates your confidence, and intensifies your passion for doing God’s work.
MEDITATION:
The word of God is my strategy for deepening my intimacy with Christ.
PRAYER:
- Jehovah Elohim, let your fire consume every speaking of prayerlessness in me in the mighty name of Jesus.
- I decree that my life is hedged and sharpened by the power of the Holy Ghost in the name of Jesus.
