Mk 2:22, Is 54:2-3
• God is interested in us building capacity.
• Building capacity in Bible terms is building our spiritual, mental and physical ability in order to handle larger blessings, opportunities and assignments.
• There is what we can do now but something bigger will demand that we build our capacity.
• God gets shocked when we are asking for something that we have not built capacity to carry.
• You have to develop your spiritual and mental capacity, God won’t do it for you.
1 Kgs 18:46
• Physical development is important but it is not as important as spiritual and mental development for a believer.
• Trouble does not come to a believer when his love for the Lord is hot.
• If you act like a new comer in every service, you will always experience new things.
• If someone gets married without learning how to be a wife or husband, that person will just be like a boy or girl in the marriage.
• People don’t accept that they are not ready.
2 Kgs 4:1-4
• God knows that the very increase a person is wishing for can end up destroying them.
• Many christians are not prepared.
1 Kgs 18:46, Ex 23:29-30, Pr 30:21-23
• We need to keep on increasing capacity because there is a certain level that can make us backslide.
• Don’t despise the small things God is letting you go through, they are helping you to build capacity.
