Run to the Waters: Hunger for the Word

[restabs alignment=”osc-tabs-left” responsive=”false” tabcolor=”#81d742″ seltabcolor=”#eeee22″]
[restab title=”English” active=”active”]

Apostle Grace Lubega

Luke 13: 15-16 (KJV); The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering? And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?

As revealed by scripture, we are freed to go to the waters.

Immediately one is born again, they must begin with the word. One must be taught the fundamentals of the new life in Christ.

In Ephesians 5:26, the Bible says; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the Word.

In this life, you may attend deliverance service after deliverance service and get healed from disease after disease but until you learn that freedom begins when you run to the waters, you will never be truly free.

Free men study the Word; they listen to it; they meditate upon it; they seek, search out and feed on it. James calls it the perfect law of liberty because it is what defines true freedom. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Timothy 2:15, Colossians 3:16

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Immediately one is born again, they must begin with the word. One must be taught the fundamentals of the new life in Christ.

PRAYER: Father, thank you for your Word, the foundation of truth by which men are set free. It shapes my desires and every day, I hunger and pant for it. I think the Word, I meditate the Word, I speak the Word because I am free. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Aposte Grace Lubega

Luka 13:15-16 Umwami Yesu aramusubiza ati”Mwa ndyarya mwe, mbese umuntu wese muri mwe ntazitura inka ye cyangwa indogobe ye, ayikura mu kiraro ku isabato, akayijyana akayuhira?Kandi uyu ko ari umukobwa wa Aburahamu, akaba amaze iyi myaka cumi n’umunani aboshywe na Satani, ntiyari akwiye kubohorwa iyi ngoyi ku munsi w’isabato?”

Nkuko bihishuwe n’icyanditswe, tubohorerwa kujya ku mazi.

Umuntu akivuka ubwa kabiri, agomba gutangirana ijambo. Umuntu agomba kwigishwa ubuzima bushya buri muri Kristo.

Mu befeso 5:26, bibiliya iravuga; ngo aryeze, amaze kuryogesha amazi n’ijambo rye.

Muri ubu buzima, ushobora kujya mu materaniro yo kubohorwa ugakira indwara ku yindi no ku yindi ariko keretse wize ko umudendezo utangira wirukankiye ku mazi, nago uzigera ubohoka.

Abantu babohotse biga ijambo; bararyumvira; baritekerezaho;barashaka;barashakisha ndetse bakarigenderaho. Yakobo aryita itegeko ry’umudendezo kuko ari ryo risobanuye kwidegembya nyako. Hallelujah!

IBINDI BYANDITSWE: 2 Timotewo 2:15, Abakolosayi 3:16

ICYO WAKURAMO:
Umuntu akivuka ubwa kabiri, bagomba gutangirana ijambo. Umuntu agomba kwigishwa ubuzima bushya buri muri Kristo.

ISENGESHO: Data, ngushimiye ijambo ryawe, urufatiro rw’ukuri abantu babohorerwamo. Rushyira ku murongo ibyifuzo byanjye kandi buri munsi, ndarisonzera kandi nkarinyoterwa. Ntekereza ijambo, mvuga ijambo kuko nabohowe. Mu izina rya Yesu. Amen

Courir Aux Sources : Faim De La Parole

Apostle Grace Lubega

Luc 13:15-16 (KJV) Hypocrites! lui répondit le Seigneur, est-ce que chacun de vous, le jour du sabbat, ne détache pas de la crèche son bœuf ou son âne, pour le mener boire ? Et cette femme, qui est une fille d’Abraham, et que Satan tenait liée depuis dix-huit ans, ne fallait-il pas la délivrer de cette chaîne le jour du sabbat ?

Comme l’a révélé l’écriture, nous sommes libres d’aller aux sources.

Immédiatement on est né de nouveau, ils doivent commencer par la parole. Il faut enseigner les fondements de la nouvelle vie en le Christ.

Dans Ephésiens 5:26, la Bible dit : « Afin de le sanctifier et de le purifier par le lavage de l’eau par la Parole. »

Dans cette vie, vous pouvez assister au service de délivrance après le service de délivrance et guérir de la maladie après la maladie mais jusqu’à ce que vous appreniez que la liberté commence lorsque vous courez vers les sources, vous ne serez jamais vraiment libre.

Les hommes libres étudient la Parole ; ils l’écoutant ; ils méditent sur elle ; ils cherchent, recherchent et se nourrissent de cela. Jacques l’appelle la loi parfaite de la liberté parce que c’est ce qui définit la vraie liberté. Alléluia !

ÉTUDE COMPLÉMENTAIRE : 2 Timothée 2:15, Colossiens 3:16

PÉPITE D’OR :
Immédiatement on est né de nouveau, ils doivent commencer par la parole. Il faut enseigner les fondements de la nouvelle vie en le Christ.

PRIÈRE : Père, merci pour ta Parole, fondement de la vérité par laquelle les hommes sont libérés. Il façonne mes désirs et tous les jours, j’ai faim et je la porte. Je pense à la Parole, je médite la Parole, je parle la Parole parce que je suis libre. Au nom de Jésus. Amen.

Rehearse

[restabs alignment=”osc-tabs-left” responsive=”false” tabcolor=”#81d742″ seltabcolor=”#eeee22″]
[restab title=”English” active=”active”]

Apostle Grace Lubega

Psalms 42:5-6 (MSG); Why are you down in the dumps, dear soul? Why are you crying the blues? Fix my eyes on God — soon I’ll be praising again. He puts a smile on my face. He’s my God. When my soul is in the dumps, I rehearse everything I know of you, From Jordan depths to Hermon heights, including Mount Mizar.

When your soul is down cast, encourage yourself in the Lord. How so? Our theme scripture reveals that David did this by rehearsing the past victories that God had granted him. That is how we win; it is how we overcome. Rehearse.

Regardless of what you are going through right now, be it a financial, family or job crisis, simply think back and meditate on what God did for you in the past.

There are situations you went through years ago that felt like they would never end and you would not make it through alive; but God was faithful!

If it was disease, He healed you. If it was loss, He comforted you. If it was lack, He provided and made a way when your back was against the wall.

When you face adversity, simply remember those moments and how He helped you through.

No matter how harsh your situation is, get yourself alone and rehearse. “Father you delivered me from the hands of my enemies two years ago…You healed me when the doctor’s report spoke no hope….You provided when no man could meet my need….This situation is no different. If you were faithful then, you are faithful now.”

Don’t wail about what is wrong. Simply rehearse past victories. No matter how small the past testimony is, simply rehearse. That is how faith grows. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Timothy 2:13, Ephesians 5:20

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Don’t wail about what is wrong. Simply rehearse past victories.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for my life. I thank you for the far that you have brought me and to the places you are taking me. You have been faithful and true. You never failed me. Even as I look to the future, I know that nothing can move me because I have you. You helped me before, you will help me gain. You saved me before, you will save me again. My present is secure. My future is not a mystery. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

RÉPÉTER

Apôtre Grace Lubega

Psaumes 42:5-6 (MSG) Pourquoi t’abats-tu, mon âme, et gémis-tu au dedans de moi ? Espère en Dieu, car je le louerai encore ; il est mon salut et mon Dieu. Mon âme est abattue au dedans de moi : aussi c’est à toi que je pense, depuis le pays du Jourdain, Depuis l’Hermon, depuis la montagne de Mitsear.

Quand votre âme est renversée, encouragez-vous dans le Seigneur. Comment ? Notre écriture révèle que David a fait cela en répétant les victoires passées que Dieu lui avait accordées. Voilà comment nous gagnons ; c’est comment nous surmontons. Répéter.

Peu importe ce que vous traversez en ce moment, que ce soit une crise financière, familiale ou professionnelle, réfléchissez simplement et méditez sur ce que Dieu a fait pour vous dans le passé.

Il y a des situations que vous avez traversées il y a des années et qui semblaient ne jamais se terminer et vous ne réussirez pas à survivre ; mais Dieu était fidèle !

Si c’était la maladie, Il vous a guéri. Si c’était la perte, Il vous a réconforté. Si c’était le manque, Il a fourni et a fait en sorte quand votre dos était contre le mur.

Lorsque vous faites face à l’adversité, rappelez-vous simplement ces moments et comment Il vous a aidé à les traverser.

Peu importe la gravité de votre situation, soyez seul dans un endroit et répétez. « Père, tu m’as délivré des mains de mes ennemis il y a deux ans… Tu m’as guéri quand le rapport du médecin ne disait aucun espoir… Tu m’as fourni quand personne ne pouvait répondre à mes besoins… Cette situation n’est pas différente. Si tu étais fidèle alors, tu es fidèle maintenant. »

Ne vous plaignez pas de ce qui ne va pas. Il suffit de répéter les victoires passées. Peu importe le peu de témoignages passés, il suffit de répéter. C’est ainsi que la foi grandit. Alléluia !

ETUDE COMPLÉMENTAIRE : 2 Timothée 2:13, Ephésiens 5:20

PÉPITE D’OR :
Ne vous plaignez pas de ce qui ne va pas. Il suffit de répéter les victoires passées.

PRIÈRE : Père, je te remercie pour ma vie. Je te remercie pour les nombreuses choses que tu m’as apportées et aux endroits où tu m’emmènes. Tu as été fidèle et vrai. Tu ne m’as jamais fait échouer. Même si je regarde vers l’avenir, je sais que rien ne peut m’émouvoir parce que je t’ai. Tu m’as aidé avant, tu m’aideras à gagner. Tu m’as sauvé avant, tu me sauveras encore. Mon cadeau est sécurisé. Mon avenir n’est pas un mystère. Au nom de Jésus. Amen.

The Shunammite Fortitude

Apostle Grace Lubega

2 Kings 4:20-26. And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died. And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out. And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again. And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well…And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite: Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well.

When the Shunammite woman lost her only child, our theme scripture reveals that she did not even disclose it to her husband. She placed the child on a bed in the spare room that they had reserved for Elisha the prophet and went searching for him.

When her husband asked her why she was going in search of the man of God, she only told him, “it shall be well….”

The scriptures go on to reveal that when Elisha saw her from afar off, he told his servant to go on ahead and ask her if all was well with her, her husband and her son. Still, she answered, “it is well.”

That is the attitude of a true believer in adversity! Never once did she admit it in her spirit that her child was dead.

That is why, in the subsequent scripture, Elisha says, “her soul is vexed within her: and the Lord hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.” (1 Kings 4:27).

Because she had not acknowledged it in her spirit, even heaven could not register it. God Himself hid it from Elisha.

Child of God, as long as you have not settled something in your spirit; as long as you have not accepted a situation as true, as long as you have not resigned yourself to a circumstance, heaven has no record of it either.

Stick to your confession of truth. Set your eyes on the victory in Christ. It is well! Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Hebrews 3:14, Hebrews 10:39

GOLDEN NUGGET: As long as you have not resigned yourself to a circumstance, heaven has no record of it either.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for this great knowledge. I am a victor in Christ. Nothing shakes me. Nothing moves me. It is well with me. It is well with my family. It is well with my ministry. It is well with my finances. It is well with my health. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Drawing from the Wells of Salvation

  • Apostle Grace Lubega

    Isaiah 12:3 (KJV); Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

    The life of salvation is very easy. Some have complicated it with teachings that it is very hard. No. God did not call you into a life of struggle. He did not die for you into a life of hardship. Salvation is easy!

    Does that mean that a child of God never faces difficulties or challenges? Of course not. The Christ said, “in the world you shall have tribulation but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33).

    We are the kind that thrive most under pressure. When you get the worst news, you rejoice because you are more than a conqueror(Romans 8:37).

    When the doctor says, “you have stage 4 cancer,” dance for God because it is a light affliction that cannot be compared to the glory that must follow(2 Corinthians 4:17).

    If you lose your job, lock yourself up in your room and dance for joy, thanking God for the new promotion.

    When you lose a multimillion deal, rejoice for the billions that are coming through. Face adversity with joy. That is how we draw from the wells of salvation. Hallelujah!

    FURTHER STUDY: Proverbs 15:15, 1 Peter 1:8

    GOLDEN NUGGET:
    God did not call you into a life of struggle. He did not die for you into a life of hardship. Salvation is easy!

    PRAYER: Father I thank you for the deep wells of salvation. In them are depths of grace; depths of wisdom; depths of success; depths of favour; depths of glory. Understanding has taught me that with joy, I draw out. My life is easy. I face everything that comes my way with that unspeakable joy. Because I am of a merry heart, I have a continual feast. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

  • Apôtre Grace Lubega

    PUISER AUX SOURCES DU SALUT

    Isaïe 12:3 (KJV) Vous puiserez de l’eau avec joie Aux sources du salut.

    La vie du salut est très facile. Certains l’ont compliqué avec des enseignements qui sont très durs. Non. Dieu ne t’a pas appelé dans une vie de lutte. Il n’est pas mort pour vous dans une vie difficile. Le salut est facile !

    Est-ce que cela signifie qu’un enfant de Dieu n’a jamais fait face à des difficultés ou à des défis ? Bien sûr que non. Le Christ a dit : « Dans le monde vous aurez des épreuves mais soyez de bonne humeur, j’ai vaincu le monde ». (Jean 16:33).

    Nous sommes le genre qui prospère le plus sous pression. Quand vous obtenez la pire des nouvelles, vous vous réjouissez parce que vous êtes plus qu’un conquérant (Romains 8:37).

    Lorsque le médecin dit : « Vous avez un cancer de stade 4 », dansez pour Dieu parce que c’est une légère affliction qui ne peut être comparée à la gloire qui doit suivre (2 Corinthiens 4:17).

    Si vous perdez votre travail, enfermez-vous dans votre chambre et dansez de joie en remerciant Dieu pour la nouvelle promotion.

    Lorsque vous perdez un contrat de plusieurs millions, réjouissez-vous pour les milliards qui arrivent. Faites face à l’adversité avec joie. C’est ainsi que nous puisons aux sources du salut. Alléluia !

    ÉTUDE COMPLÉMENTAIRE : Proverbes 15:15, 1 Pierre 1:8

    PÉPITE D’OR : Dieu ne t’a pas appelé dans une vie de lutte. Il n’est pas mort pour vous dans une vie difficile. Le salut est facile !

    PRIÈRE : Père, je te remercie pour les sources profondes du salut. En elles sont les profondeurs de la grâce ; les profondeurs de la sagesse ; les profondeurs du succès ; les profondeurs de faveur ; les profondeurs de gloire. La compréhension m’a appris cela avec joie, je puise. Ma vie est facile. Je suis confronté à tout ce qui me vient avec cette joie indicible. Parce que je suis d’un cœur joyeux, j’ai un festin continuel. Au nom de Jésus. Amen.

Honour The Presence Of God

Apostle Grace Lubega

Ephesians 4:30 (KJV); And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

The Holy Spirit will never leave you. The Bible says that by Him have we been sealed unto the day of redemption.

In as much as He can never leave, it is possible to grieve Him, to sadden Him, to vex Him or to offend Him.

I have seen believers who grieve the Spirit because they do not know how to honour His presence in a place.

They chat away in the presence of God; some take to their phones and start meaningless and irrelevant conversations; some wander around aimlessly with no regard to the God in their midst.

How do you respond to the Holy Spirit? How do you act when you see the manifestation of His presence? Learn to always honour Him.

Cultivate a character of reverence to the presence of God because the more you do, the more He will respond to you. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Chronicles 5:13-14, Revelation 4:10-11

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Cultivate a character of reverence to the presence of God because the more you do, the more He will respond to you.

PRAYER: Father, thank you for this knowledge. Thank you for the privilege of your presence in my life. I am alive to you. At the slightest taste of your presence, I know how to respond. Indifference is far from me because I have cultivated a relationship with you from the many experiences you have allowed me to enjoy. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Give God Time

Revelation 2:4 (KJV); Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee because thou hast left thy first love.

It is possible to get too involved in ministry and the service of the kingdom and become indifferent to the person of the Spirit. That is what Paul calls being a busy body (2 Thessalonians 3:11).

Some people are so busy ushering, handling machines, cleaning the church etc. but in their pre-occupation, they forget to give God their time.

How often do you simply spend time alone in a room, silent, asking for nothing else but only hungry to hear His voice and to feel His presence?

This ought not to be a one time thing but a present continuous experience of the believer. Never be too busy for God. Give God time.

He is more interested in time spent with you in true fellowship and communion than the time you spend in service to Him.

For some, when they got jobs, God lost His place in their hearts. When some got married, the wife or husband took the place of the Most High.

Let God be your priority. He did not give you a job so it replaces Him. He did not give you a spouse so he or she replaces Him. He is our first love. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Psalms 42:1, Psalms 27:4

GOLDEN NUGGET:
God is our first love.

PRAYER: Father, you are everything I ever needed; my priority, my only option. I live a life of constant communion and fellowship with you and out of that I serve. I can never be indifferent to the person of the Holy Spirit, I am alive to Him in all that I do. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
