Keeping to the preaching, teaching, and ministering of the wholesome words [sound words] of redemption in the grace: to save the sinner, to restore the backsliding and to build up [establish] the saints in the faith, is an inescapable, supreme and global commission in principle; and it’s without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation for the glory and virtue of God in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

“And so I have made it my aim to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should BUILD on another man’s FOUNDATION, 21 but as it is written: “To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21.

“And besides those things that are without, there is the daily [inescapable pressure] of my care and anxiety for all the churches” 2 Corinthians 11:28/Amplified Classic Edition. 

“If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to WHOLESOME [SOUNDS] WORDS, even THE WORDS of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the DOCTRINE which accords with godliness, 4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, 5 useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself. 6 Now godliness with contentment is great gain” 1 Timothy 6:3-5. 

“And now [brethren], I commit you to God [I deposit you in His charge, entrusting you to His protection and care]. And I commend you to the Word of His grace [to the commands and counsels and promises of His unmerited favor].

THE PLACE OF CHURCH WORSHIP

By Leave a Comment

THE PLACE OF CHURCH WORSHIP – IT’S A FAMILY GATHERING – AND FAMILY SUNDAY: BE A PARTICIPANT, NOT A SPECTATOR, AT THE INGATHERING! 

“I was GLAD when they SAID unto me, LET US GO INTO THE HOUSE of the Lord” Psalms 122:1. 

Unreservedly, I just want you to know now, today and always that: 

THE PLACE OF CHURCH WORSHIP IS NOT A PLACE YOU GO TO – IT’S A FAMILY GATHERING YOU SHOULD BELONG TO . . . SO ARISE AND BE THERE WHENEVER THERE IS AN INGATHERING AND BE A PARTICIPANT OF IT . . . DON’T BE A SPECTATOR AND OBSERVER.  

Be as the Psalmist to always look forward to the GATHERING and INGATHERING of God’s precious and redeemed people as you. For the GATHERING and INGATHERING of God’s VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMERS, TRIUMPHANT and A MORE THAN CONQUERORS people of God in Christ Jesus stead is where you should always desire and make time available to be – just as written of the Psalmist, in the scripture of Psalm 122:1, as mentioned earlier, and more so for us of the last days Brethren, as spoken of in Isaiah. 

“And it shall come to pass in the LAST DAYS, that the MOUNTAIN of the Lord’s house shall be ESTABLISHED in the TOP of the mountains, and shall be EXALTED above the hills; and all NATIONS shall flow unto it. 3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the HOUSE of the God of Jacob; and he will TEACH us of his ways, and we will WALK in his paths: for out of ZION shall go forth the law, and the WORD of the Lord from Jerusalem. 4 And he shall JUDGE among the nations, and shall REBUKE many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn WAR any more” Isaiah 2:2-4  

Find a WORSHIP INGATHERING near you and be a part – an active participant. It’s your family, it’s not just a place you go to . . . You are the Church in the Churches INGATHERING. Your seating spot awaits you in the COMMUNION. Make it happen now and always – [Ephesians 5:23-32]. Don’t be an observer, a pessimistic and passive person in the INGATHERING – give in your best, make your good, spirited and hearted presence to bless someone because you are there. You don’t know how someone may be happily blessed for your unexplainable smiles, gracious testimony and undeniable presence that you never knew could be contagious to give hope, love and assurance of FAITH in God in Christ Jesus to another loved child of God. 

“How is it then, BRETHREN? when ye COME TOGETHER, every one of you hath a PSALM, hath a DOCTRINE, hath a TONGUE, hath a REVELATION, hath an INTERPRETATION. Let ALL THINGS be DONE unto EDIFYING” 1 Corinthians 14:26. 

Give God a chance in your life, and don’t be a spectator, making excuses with the habits of absenteeism each time is the set moment of gathering and ingathering assembly of God’s precious people.  

“And let us consider one another to PROVOKE unto LOVE and to GOOD WORKS: 25 not FORSAKING the assembling of OURSELVES TOGETHER, as the MANNER of some is; but EXHORTING one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:24-25. 

Be ASSURED that at the INGATHERING, everyone is UNIQUE, VITAL and IMPORTANT . . . So are you too . . . We are all CALLED into a COMMON UNION – COMMUNION and the same PURPOSE of God – to SERVE Him acceptably and WORSHIP Him worthily in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [1 Corinthians 12:12-27, 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:12; 1 Peter 2:9-10; Revelation 5:9-10]. 

And no matter the situation and circumstances befalling us – it’s far BETTER to be late than NEVER to be at the INGATHERING . . . Because you have to COME for it to BECOME a GATHERING and INGATHERING. And it’s a FAMILY gathering – YOUR gathering and not someone ELSE’S. Be there at ALL COST in LOVE, HOPE and FAITH of God that’s in Christ Jesus. For out of ZION, the Church shall go forth the LAW – the WORD of our God, to make good and goodness for the individual, family, community and the larger society of any nation. 

“. . . 3 And MANY PEOPLE shall go and say, COME ye, and LET US GO UP to the MOUNTAIN of the Lord, to THE HOUSE of the God of Jacob; and he will TEACH us of His WAYS, and we will WALK in his PATHS: for out of ZION shall go forth THE LAW, and THE WORD of the Lord from Jerusalem. . .” Isaiah 2:1-5. 

Therefore, beloved of God, have you resolved to find a place of worship? There’s one near you, even at a walking distance, where you are not mobile and can’t afford the cost of transport to your desired places. It’s not a New Creation mandate that until you must attend the denomination you were born into, or your family is noted for, or you attended while living in a particular region, that’s when you get to the gathering – the assembly of God’s REDEEMED people like you. You need to know and understanding this in the grace, that in Christ Jesus, the NEW CREATION is not limited by tribe, colour, status, culture, gender, denomination, and such like, before God, to worship Him worthily and serve Him acceptably. [2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 6:14-16; Galatians 3:26-29; Galatians 5:6]. 

I hope you make up your mind today to be at the ingathering near you. And it’s my prayers that you be blessed of God in the grace as you step up to show up now in the faith for your new dawn. 

Blessed regards.

MARRIAGE – MARITAL RELATIONSHIP

By Leave a Comment

MARRIAGE – MARITAL RELATIONSHIP: IT’S A CALLING IN THE GRACE – ABOUNDING WITH FAVOUR AND BLESSEDNESS! 

“Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; 9 not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary BLESSING, knowing that you were CALLED to this, that you may INHERIT A BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:8-9. 

Being married to the one you love and loving the one you marry – it’s a GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL place to be in the marital grace; this is in order to obtain and enjoy the promised FAVOUR and BLESSEDNESS when you find your spouse. This is as written: 

“Whoso FINDETH a wife findeth a GOOD thing, and obtaineth FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:22. 

Therefore, are you MARRIED? If YES – Know for good that you are CALLED to INHERIT A BLESSING; that is, as being heirs together in the sharing of the common GRACE of life in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 1 Peter 3:7-12. 

Marriage in Christ Jesus stead and stand, is not a CURSE thing; and more so, it’s not a CURSED relationship as many may have attributed to the consequences of Adam and Eve. This is when you hold dearly and steadfastly to uphold strongly the context of the New Creation SCRIPTURAL TRUTH of the Holy Writ of God as written in the Holy writ of 1 Peter 3:7-12.  

For in REDEMPTION, Christ Jesus has REDEEMED us and RESTORED us to the marital BLESSEDNESS of God that enriches all. Know therefore , that your MARRIAGE though may be going through challenges, is not a CURSE affair anymore in Christ Jesus stead; and it’s not CURSED to become one any time and any day but rather it’s a place of BLESSING and BLESSEDNESS in the grace, to INHERIT a BLESSING in Christ Jesus stead. [1 Peter 3:7-12; Ephesians 1:3; Romans 5:1-2, 12-21; Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29].  

And whatever you are seeing in your marriage or about marriages, or be thinking or be watching from your own grandstand on marital stands, or that you are knowingly living and experiencing, in respect of marital difficulties and challenges, could be due to either or both of the spouses living in ignorance or stupidities or foolishness on the marital scriptural context. 

And having marital challenges on any ground, that doesn’t necessarily make God’s WORD and God’s scriptural stand in marriage to become inoperative and ineffective and impractical. For in God, the promises and BLESSEDNESS toward marriage as in any of His promises are YES and YES and sealed by the Holy Spirit in the grace, and it’s without a NO in it; and the marital life in God’s YES, is touchable, reachable, loveable, liveable and tangible. 

“But as God is faithful, our word to you was not Yes and No. 19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—was not YES and NO, but in Him was YES. 20 For all the promises of God in Him are YES, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us. 21 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, 22 who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee” 2 Corinthians 1:18-22. 

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; MALE and FEMALE created He THEM. 28 And God BLESSED THEM, and God said unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH the earth, and SUBDUE it: and have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28.  

I know most people think that all that matters is marital love, without knowing that love alone can’t keep and sustain marriage without the process that makes marriage work. This is why I teach people that you might have met and married by love, but you can’t LIVE and SUSTAIN marriage by just LOVE alone without the other ingredients of doing life and living godly in the grace; meaning, one needs to do life in marriage by WISDOM – which is the application of knowledge, [KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING] in the Scriptural context of marriage in the grace. 

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS is HARD [DIFFICULT, CHALLENGING] Proverbs 13:15/Emphasis Mine. 

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (LOVELESSNESS, UNPRODUCTIVE, INACTIVENESS)” Proverbs 21:16/Emphasis Mine. 

Apostle Peter even charges the husbands to deal and dwell with your wives by KNOWLEDGE [some translations say by UNDERSTANDING] in order to avoid marital crisis – hence, I can say emphatically to anyone that your marital dealing is not by wisdom when anyone, supposedly under God, decides to build up their marriage on MUNDANE things to keep their spouse happy. Such acts are temporary, and such mundane things are limited and subject to change with time; and are prone to failure, and more so, because of the human factors involved, that oppose God’s scriptural context upon which the marital stand of the BLESSEDNESS of God is built upon in the grace. For its written: 

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy GETTING get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7. 

“Likewise, ye husbands, DWELL WITH THEM ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE, giving HONOUR unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being HEIRS together of the GRACE of life; that your PRAYERS BE NOT Hindered” 1 Peter 3:7. 

“Through WISDOM is an house BUILDED; and by UNDERSTANDING it is ESTABLISHED: 4 and by KNOWLEDGE shall the chambers be FILLED with all precious and pleasant riches” Proverbs 24:3-4. 

“Every WISE woman BUILDETH her house: but the FOOLISH plucketh it down with her hands” Proverbs 14:2. 

“For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and MONEY is a DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY OF KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM GIVETH LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:12. 

“ Who is as the WISE man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man’s WISDOM maketh his face to SHINE, and the BOLDNESS of his face shall be changed” Ecclesiastes 8:1. 

Henceforth, be RESOLVED with a changed heart towards your spouse today and every day in every way. Love your spouse in grace and live through wisdom to ensure the working of the marriage and marital stand by God in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. For it’s what you PICTURE in the light of the scriptures and scriptural context in marriage and marital stand, that becomes your marital FUTURE. The REDEMPTION DEED OF CHRIST has settled once for all time, for all, the enabling marital grace, and to share in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in Him with each other in love. 

Therefore, I say to you and all: 

Stay BLESSED! 

Remain BLESSED!!  

And be BLESSED in all regards in every way in Christ Jesus stead in God’s BLESSEDNESS. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Whoso FINDETH a wife findeth a GOOD thing, and obtaineth FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:22. 

“. . . 7 Likewise, ye husbands, DWELL WITH THEM ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE, giving HONOUR unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your PRAYERS BE NOT HINDERED.8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; KNOWING that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT A BLESSING. 10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12. 

“THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, IT MAKETH RICH, and he ADDETH NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22. 

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED US with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3. 

“Christ hath REDEEMED us from the CURSE of the law, being MADE A CURSE for us: for it is written, CURSED is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE THE PROMISE of the Spirit through faith” Galatians 3:13-14. 

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9. 

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to HIS PURPOSE” Romans 8:28. 

“Every WISE woman BUILDETH her house: but the FOOLISH plucketh it down with her hands” Proverbs 14:1. 

“My people are DESTROYED for LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also REJECT thee,that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6 [Isaiah 5:13-15]. 

SUMMARY:  

The message emphasises that marriage is a calling in the grace of God, abounding with favour and blessedness. It encourages married couples to understand that their relationship is not just about love, but also about living in wisdom and applying knowledge and understanding in the scriptural context of marriage. 

The message highlights the importance of husbands dwelling with their wives according to knowledge, giving honour to their wives as heirs together of the grace of life (1 Peter 3:7). It warns that building a marriage on mundane things will lead to failure and encourages couples to build their marriage on God’s word and wisdom. 

The message reminds couples that they are called to inherit a blessing and that God’s promises are Yes and Amen in Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 1:18-22). It encourages them to picture their marital future in the light of scriptures and scriptural context, and to stay blessed and remain blessed in all regards. 

Key points: 

  • Marriage is a calling in the grace of God 
  • Love alone is not enough to sustain a marriage; wisdom and knowledge are essential 
  • Husbands should dwell with their wives according to knowledge and give honour to their wives 
  • Couples are called to inherit a blessing 
  • God’s promises are Yes and Amen in Christ Jesus

THE PASSOVER: EXPRESSING THE GENUINE BIBLE LOVE

By Leave a Comment

THE PASSOVER: EXPRESSING THE GENUINE BIBLE LOVE – LAYING YOUR LIFE DOWN FOR THE GOOD OF OTHERS AS JESUS DID! 

“Now before the FEAST of the PASSOVER, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having LOVED his own which were in the world, he LOVED them unto the END . . . 34 A NEW COMMANDMENT I give unto you, That ye LOVE one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1, 34-35. 

Genuine Bible LOVE can be known. It thus mean, genuine LOVE of God in Christ Jesus can be known. It’s real, tangible, intentional, unconditional, without dissimilation, without hypocrisy and such like. The outworking of genuine Bible love that is KNOWN, is as SCRIPTURALLY attested to by Apostle John and it’s as written: 

“By this we KNOW love, because He LAID down His life for us. And we also ought to LAY down our lives for the brethren” 1 John 3:16. 

Therefore, God’s love is born in our HEARTS by the REDEMPTION done deed of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. And the week and weekend of PASSOVER is our best time and moment to awaken God’s LOVE in our being, as we do life and live godly in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in our REDEMPTION. 

“Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. FOR EVEN CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR US” 1 Corinthians 5:7. 

Blessed regards in God’s LOVE in redemption for us. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet WITHOUT strength, in due time Christ DIED for the UNGODLY. 7 For SCARCELY for a RIGHTEOUS man will one die: yet peradventure for a GOOD man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH his LOVE toward us, in that, WHILE we were yet SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5-8. 

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” John 15:12-14. 

“Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. FOR EVEN CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR US” 1 Corinthians 5:7.

The message highlights that genuine Bible love is real, tangible, intentional, unconditional, and without hypocrisy. It cites 1 John 3:16, which states that we know love because Jesus laid down His life for us, and we ought to do the same for others. 

The Passover is presented as a time to awaken God’s love in our being, as we celebrate our redemption in Christ. The message references 1 Corinthians 5:7, which says that Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed for us. 

The scriptural thoughts and references emphasises the following: 

  • God’s love is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5-8) 
  • Jesus’ love is demonstrated by laying down His life for us (John 15:12-14) 
  • We are commanded to love one another as Jesus has loved us (John 13:34-35)

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE UNTO US wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31. 

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 BY WHOM also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2. 

“And you hath HE QUICKENED (MADE ALIVE), who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his GREAT LOVE wherewith he LOVED US, 5 even when we were dead in sins, hath QUICKENED US together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 and hath RAISED US up together, and MADE US sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness TOWARD US through Christ Jesus. 8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: 9 NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST. 10 For WE ARE HIS WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ORDAINED that we should walk in them. 11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 that at that time ye were WITHOUT Christ, being ALIENS from the commonwealth of Israel, and STRANGERS from the covenants of promise, having NO HOPE, and WITHOUT God in the world: 13 but NOW in Christ Jesus ye who SOMETIMES WERE FAR OFF ARE MADE NIGH BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST. 14 For HE IS OUR PEACE, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 and that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 and came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18 for through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19 Now therefore YE ARE NO MORE strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 in whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22 in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit” Ephesians 2:1-22 (Emphasis Mine). 

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, ALL things have BECOME NEW. 18 Now all things are of God, who has RECONCILED us to Himself through Jesus Christ, anTherefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not [a]imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him has GIVEN us the ministry of RECONCILIATION, 19 that is, that God was in Christ RECONCILING the world to Himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses to them, and has COMMITTED to us the WORD of reconciliation. 20 Now then, we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He MADE Him who knew NO sin to be sin FOR us, that we might BECOME the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God IN Him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 NKJV.

ENJOYING THE HOLY SPIRIT SPIRIT-FILLED LIFE: THE BLESSEDNESS OF OUR REDEMPTION!  

“Christ has REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might RECEIVE THE PROMISE of THE SPIRIT through faith” Galatians 3:13-14. 

  • Who is the Promised Holy Spirit?
  • What about the Person of the Holy Spirit?
  • Why the Promised Holy Spirit?
  • Who can receive Him?
  • How does He lead believers in the faith?
  • How does He inspire, reveal, and empower believers?
  • How can one receive Him?
  • How can I minister or help someone to receive Him?
  • How can I enjoy His daily presence, both now and in the future?
  • Is Praying in the Spirit beneficial?
  • What is it about speaking forth in othertongues?
  • What are the differences between His leading today to New CreationBelieversof God in Christ Jesus and His leading in the Old Testament? 

These questions – and many more – are answered in this living testimony, expressed beyond words, within the pages of this three hundred and thirty-three (333)-page living epistle. It’s a didactic and instructional work, written without prejudice, sentiment, or dissimulation, grounded in grace. 

After five decades of receiving, living, and walking in the Holy Spirit daily – and still enjoying His presence – this book is written to answer a vital question: how can I make the Holy Spirit known to others beyond the pulpit and to the ends of the earth? This work is born out of that experience, and it will richly bless you. 

“And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), to be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of Truth, whom the world CANNOT RECEIVE [and take to its heart] because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He (the Holy Spirit) remains with you continually and will be in you” John 14:16-17/Amplified. 

In this month of April 2026, I present to you REDEMPTION NEWS as we commemorate and celebrate our REDEMPTION in grace. This is to inform you that my new book has been added to my library of publications. It was released on 29 March 2026 and is centred on the Promised Holy Spirit, whom all who are REDEEMED receive by grace. 

The result – indeed, the effect – of our redemption as Abraham’s seed is to partake in the blessing and to receive the promise of the Holy Spirit in grace. 

The timely book is entitled: 

ENJOYING THE HOLY SPIRIT SPIRIT-FILLED LIFE! “About Enjoying the Spirit-Inspired, Spirit-Revealed, and Spirit-Empowered Led Life in the Grace” 

It is now available in major accredited international online bookstores in the following formats: 

  • E-book
  • Hardcover and
  • Softcover

You can access the book from (but not limited to): 

What a powerful way to mark the Redemption Month of April – by embracing: ENJOYING THE HOLY SPIRIT SPIRIT-FILLED LIFE IN THE GRACE. This instructional and didactic book, free from sentiment, prejudice, and dissimulation, is a purely informative and transformative work filled with insight and foresight for life in grace as written: 

“I will INSTRUCT thee and TEACH thee in the WAY which thou shalt GO: I will GUIDE thee with mine eye. 9. Be ye not as the HORSE, or as the MULE, which have no UNDERSTANDING: whose MOUTH must be HELD in with BIT and BRIDLE, lest they come near unto thee” Psalms 32:8-9. 

“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been POURED out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us” Romans 5:5. 

This book, ENJOYING THE HOLY SPIRIT SPIRIT-FILLED LIFE, serves as a guide to knowing the Person of the Holy Spirit, receiving Him, being baptised by Him, and walking with Him daily. It centres on enjoying the Spirit-inspired, Spirit-revealed, and Spirit-empowered life in grace. 

Receiving and enjoying the presence of the Holy Spirit is foundational to understanding God’s sovereignty through the ages and in the present world. It is central to our identity as Abraham’s seed in grace. This book offers insight and foresight for those who desire God’s leading in every phase of life – living godly through the Holy Spirit and His Word. 

“And thine EARS shall HEAR A WORD behind thee, saying, This is THE WAY, WALK ye in it, when ye TURN to the right hand, and when ye TURN to the left” Isaiah 30:21. 

This timely work addresses how we, as individual Christians and as the body of Christ, ought to live and possess our inheritance, becoming effective ambassadors of Christ in the world through divine guidance. 

“Howbeit when He, the Spirit of TRUTH, is come, He will GUIDE you into ALL TRUTH: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He SPEAK: and He will SHEW you things to come” John 16:13. 

With the help of the Holy Spirit, I have also drawn from my personal life experiences in this work. As a believer in Christ Jesus, a Bible teacher, pastor, and apostle of the Redemption Gospel, I delve into the principles of understanding and enjoying God’s guidance. 

This includes teaching how to discern the differences between God’s guidance in the Old Testament, the Gospels, the Epistles, and the present age – helping believers overcome traditions of men that may appear as God’s leading but ultimately keep them in bondage. 

To keep you grounded in the Word of God, the Bible is extensively referenced throughout the book, ensuring that your faith is built upon the Word – not on the author. 

I pray that you will understand the spiritual depth of this book and that it will lead you into your promised blessings and fulfilment in Christ Jesus. May you walk in triumph, victory, and dominion in the fullness of God’s grace. I commend you to God and to the Word of His grace: 

“For this God is our God for ever and ever: He will be our GUIDE even unto death” Psalms 48:14. 

“So now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God and to THE WORD of His grace, which is ABLE to BUILD you up and GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all those who are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32. 

A man’s ignorance is his own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth – rooted in the living Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit – will continually deliver, direct, and prosper one’s life into meaningful success. 

“Jesus answered and said to them, ‘You are MISTAKEN, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the POWER of God’” Matthew 22:29.

ACTUALISING OUR REDEMPTION IN THE GRACE 

By Leave a Comment

ACTUALISING OUR REDEMPTION IN THE GRACE: IT’S OUR NEW DAWN FROM DEAD WORKS – TO DO LIFE AND LIVE GODLY – IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS! 

“And YOU He made ALIVE, who were DEAD in TRESPASSES and SINS, 2 in which you once WALKED according to the COURSE OF THIS WORLD, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, 3 among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by NATURE children of wrath, just as the others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His GREAT LOVE with which He LOVED us, 5 even when we were DEAD IN TRESPASSES, made us ALIVE together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and RAISED us up together, and MADE us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God PREPARED beforehand that we should walk in them” Ephesians 2:1-10. 

Now that our Saviour and Lord Christ Jesus is RISEN, ALIVE and ENTHRONED for evermore – it’s our time to RESURRECT from DEAD WORKS – to DO LIFE and LIVE GODLY in Him; For He’s our REDEMPTION in the grace. He’s our PASSOVER indeed and has passed us from death unto life in every ramifications by being the PASSOVER lamb as written: 

“Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our PASSOVER, was sacrificed for us. 8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the UNLEAVENED bread of sincerity and truth” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8 [Exodus 12:1-14; Luke 22:1-20]. 

Now know therefore, it’s NOT just about celebrating and communicating OUR PASSOVER in the grace but it’s about our PASSOVER in Christ Jesus stead, in order to ensure our assured redemption in all the rights and privileges of these contexts and not limited. We are now to PASSOVER: 

  • From Sin To Righteousness 
  • From Eternal Death To Eternal Life 
  • From Sickness And Disease To Healing And Health 
  • From Bondage And Captivity To Deliverance And Freedom 
  • From Falsehood And Mere Facts To The Truth And Truth Only 
  • From Hopelessness To Hope  
  • From Unforgiving To Forgiveness And Forgetfulness 
  • From Evil, Hatred, Cruelty And Wickedness To Goodness, Love And Mercy And Leniency. 
  • From Poverty To Eternal Riches  
  • From Curse To Blessing 
  • From Injustice to justice, equity, mercy, faith, rights and privileges. 
  • From not having known God to having to know God In this World and His Christ and the precious Holy Spirit. 
  • And from many such like the more . . . to fulfilling purposes in the grace. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. 2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (THEN WERE THE DAYS OF UNLEAVENED BREAD.) 4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after EASTER to bring him forth to the people” Acts 12:1-4 (KJV) 

“Now about that time Herod the king stretched out his hand to harass some from the church. 2 Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 3 And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. NOW IT WAS DURING THE DAYS OF UNLEAVENED BREAD. 4 So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after PASSOVER” Acts 12:1-4 (NKJV) 

“Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. FOR EVEN CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR US: 8 therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8. 

“. . . 2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and ROLLED BACK THE STONE from the door, and sat upon it . . . 5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. 6. HE IS NOT HERE: for HE IS RISEN, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay . . .” Matthew 28:1-10. 

“Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; 24 but for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that RAISED up Jesus our Lord from the DEAD; 25 who was DELIVERED for our OFFENCES, and was RAISED again for our JUSTIFICATION” Romans 4:23-25.  

SUMMARY: 

The message celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the redemption it brings to believers. It emphasises that Jesus’ resurrection is the dawn of a new era, where believers can transition from dead works to living a godly life in Him. 

The message references Ephesians 2:1-10, highlighting how God made believers alive through Christ, raised them up, and seated them in heavenly places. This is a gift of grace, not earned by works, but received through faith. 

The Passover is used as a metaphor for Jesus’ sacrifice, where believers are passed over from death to life, sin to righteousness, and bondage to freedom. The message encourages believers to purge out old leaven (sin and malice) and live with sincerity and truth. 

The resurrection of Jesus is a triumph over death, and believers are invited to participate in this victory. The message lists various “passovers” that believers can experience, including: 

  • From sin to righteousness 
  • From eternal death to eternal life  
  • From sickness to healing 
  • From bondage to freedom 
  • From falsehood to truth 
  • From hopelessness to hope 
  • From unforgiving to forgiveness 
  • From evil to goodness 
  • From poverty to eternal riches 
  • From curse to blessing 
  • From injustice to justice 

The message concludes by emphasizing that Jesus is risen, and believers can celebrate this victory. It encourages readers to ponder on their faith and experience the redemption and freedom offered through Christ. 

Key points: 

  • Jesus’ resurrection is a new dawn for believers 
  • Believers are made alive through Christ and seated in heavenly places 
  • Jesus is the Passover lamb, sacrificing Himself for believers 
  • Believers can experience various “passovers” to a new life in Christ 
  • Jesus’ resurrection is a triumph over death, and believers participate in this victory

YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE 

By Leave a Comment

YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE: BUT THAT’S ONLY POSSIBLE WHILE YOU ARE WITHIN AND STILL IN THE FAITH!  

“Thou BELIEVEST that there is one God; thou doest well: the DEVILS also BELIEVE, and TREMBLE” James 2:9. 

We ARE to be BLESSED when we BELIEVE in THE FAITH; meaning it’s possible not to be Blessed when you walk out of the threshold of God’s word in THE FAITH, wherein the blessedness of God is justified to give access in the context. Indeed in Christ Jesus, you can become what you believe, but that’s only possible while you ARE still IN THE FAITH. The context IN THE FAITH, is not about having faith but about having a grandstand in the redemption of God in Christ Jesus stead, which is irrespective and without sentiment, prejudice and dissimulation in redemption. 

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH INTO THIS GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2. 

The devil, the satan, once upon a time was within the threshold of God’s word and he prospered along with the one third [1/3] angels [stars] that are classed cohorts demons today when they broke away from the blessedness of God’s word IN THE FAITH by their own selfishness and self-centredness, pride and arrogance which they put forth to stand against God’s authority and His Word. Hence, though satan and the devils may BELIEVE, that doesn’t offer him and cohorts’ demons the access and justification that redemption offers, hence he TREMBLES though he BELIEVES. However, he also BELIEVES in the authoritative truth of God’s word and the eternal judgement and condemnation that makes up his eternal damnation as in the holy writ. [Ezekiel 28:11-28; Isaiah 14:12-21; Revelation 12:3-4]. 

And in the same like spirit, the essence to BELIEVE that makes one to BECOME in God’s BLESSEDNESS is not in activation for those who have chosen to intentionally and willingly thrash their grandstands IN THE FAITH and are out there to make a sheep wrecking of the WORD of God and the redemption grace of God and the blood of Jesus Christ and such like, because of the same-like arrogance, pride and behavioural mannerism as exhibited by satan the devils for which they were thrown out of the throne [presence] of God in the heavens.  

“For if we sin WILFULLY after that we have received the KNOWLEDGE of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain FEARFUL [TREMBLING] looking for of judgment and FIERY indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. 28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: 29 of how much SORER punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath TRODDEN under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the BLOOD of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an UNHOLY thing, and hath done DESPITE unto the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him that hath said, VENGEANCE belongeth unto me, I will RECOMPENSE, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall JUDGE his people. 31 It is a FEARFUL thing to FALL into the HANDS of the living God” Hebrews 10:26-31. 

There are many today, who are out there that are satan and devils cohorts PERVERT in the flesh and are in the devilish business of PERVERTING the Gospel at their own detriments. These sets of people are lovers of themselves, who preach the gospel without believing in it because it’s all a game for them because it’s all about their own bellies, to disrupt the truth, create contentions, schisms, chaos, falsehoods, adulteration and such like, in order to ensure that they populate hell against the populating of the heavens. 

And if these sets of satan and devils cohorts don’t repent and dissociate themselves in order to believe again for their deliverance and restoration, they will end up overstepping their opportunity of the redemption threshold and the impossible reversal of their cause, knowingly and unknowingly – meaning that the opportune time to BELIEVE to BECOME partakers in God’s BLESSEDNESS will be out of reach for them in all respects – because God can’t be mocked and gives no permission to any to break His word in arrogance and pride and wickedness. [Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; Philippians 1:15-18; Galatians 6:1-8]. 

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is NOT CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18. 

Therefore, I PLEAD with you and all who like to FOLLOW and IMITATE after people that you considered that they ARE of God, it’s time to take a pause, check through the tenet [statement] of faith that the one you looked up to actually holds steadfastly to, so that you may not be caught up with the bait that they are holding unto that’s not of God. So was it in the city of Samaria’ as happened in Acts 8:9-25 [1-25], wherein a great one as called Simon, who by sorcery was considered a great man of God and followed and looked up to by the entire city, while he was a satan and devils cohorts in the City. Such a person robs others of the truth because he doesn’t have it and can’t believe it; and couldn’t offer repentance toward God and faith in Christ Jesus in essence for their faith stead to eternal redemption, because of the sorcery craft which only offers to their detriment the eternal damnation. Thanks to God he finds an opportunity to repentance, which you can now grasp before you are out of the threshold of obtaining it. [Acts 20:20-21; Acts 17:30-31; Mark 3:28-30; Hebrews 9:11-12, John 3:16-18]. 

“Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and BLASPHEMIES wherewith soever they shall BLASPHEME: 29 but he that shall BLASPHEME AGAINST the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of ETERNAL DAMNATION: 30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit” Mark 3:28-30. 

“And the TIMES of this IGNORANCE God WINKED [OVERLOOKED] at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31. 

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have TAUGHT you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21. 

“But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; 12 neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having OBTAINED ETERNAL REDEMPTION for us . . . 15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the REDEMPTION of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of ETERNAL inheritance. 16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator” Hebrews 9:11-16. 

Considering the writs that I have been given grace to make available on this subjects of BELIEVE in order to become in God’s BLESSEDNESS, you can see with me that – you can only BECOME what you BELIEVE in God’s BLESSEDNESS, when and whilst you are still in the faith of our God in Christ Jesus’ stead. That’s the only stand to being justified and to have access in the grace to take a redemption stand that gives leverage to our BLESSEDNESS in redemption. 

Suffix to say that, just as Satan the devils though BELIEVES today but yet TREMBLES in fear because their judgement is done, so are many whose intents are still not toward REPENTANCE but are of pride, arrogance to do God and be God toward others as satan did and is now set in eternal damnation. And God in graciousness and gracefulness, abhors, resist and detests signs and intents of pride, arrogance and such like, by throwing satan the devils away out of His BLESSEDNESS, will keep to His divinity to do same to any who walks away from their threshold to believe alright. [Romans 5:1-2; 1 Peter 5:5-10; James 4:6-10]. 

Therefore I say to you my dear friend, that while it’s yet called today and now, check up on WHAT YOU BELIEVE and WHOM YOU BELIEVE, in order to ensure and be assured that your BELIEVING gives you the justification and access to take and have a stand in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead in the faith. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“. . . Jesus said unto him, IF THOU CANST BELIEVE, all things are possible to him that BELIEVETH. 24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I BELIEVE; help thou mine unbelief . . .” Mark 9:23-24. 

“And BLESSED is she that BELIEVED: for there shall be a PERFORMANCE of those things which were told her from the Lord” Luke 1:45. 

“But without FAITH it is impossible to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6. 

“Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 10 BELIEVEST thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11 BELIEVE me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else BELIEVE me for the very works’ sake. 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that BELIEVETH on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son” John 14:9-13. 

“For God so LOVED the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have EVERLASTING LIFE. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is NOT CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18. 

“And the scripture was FULFILLED which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS: and he was called the FRIEND of God” James 2:23. 

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS. 7. Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED. 9 So then they which BE OF FAITH ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that the BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the PROMISE of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye ARE all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye ARE all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then ARE ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the PROMISE” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. 

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:22-24. 

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we PREACH; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is made unto salvation” Romans 10:8-10. 

“For what saith the scripture? Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was COUNTED unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God imputeth RIGHTEOUSNESS without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are FORGIVEN, and whose sins are COVERED. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9. Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS” Romans 4:3, 6-9. 

Further Scriptural Reading Text: Romans 4:1-25. 

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises the importance of believing in God’s word and being in the faith to attain God’s blessedness. It highlights that believing is not just about having faith, but about having a grandstand in the redemption of God in Christ Jesus. The message warns that walking out of the threshold of God’s word and faith can lead to losing access to God’s blessedness. 

The devil, Satan, is an example of one who was once in God’s presence but fell away due to pride and arrogance. Though he believes in God’s word, it doesn’t offer him redemption because he’s outside the faith. The message urges readers to check what and whom they believe, ensuring their believing gives them justification and access to God’s grace and blessedness. 

It warns against false teachers and prophets who pervert the gospel and lead others astray. Those who intentionally reject God’s word and redemption will face eternal damnation. The message pleads with readers to repent and believe, grasping the opportunity to be in God’s blessedness before it’s too late. 

The scriptural thoughts and references emphasis the importance of faith, believing, and confession in attaining righteousness and salvation. The message concludes by asking readers to ponder on their beliefs and faith. 

Key points: 

  • Believe in God’s word to attain blessedness 
  • Being in the faith is crucial for redemption 
  • Pride and arrogance can lead to falling away from God’s presence 
  • False teachers and prophets will face judgement 
  • Repent and believe to grasp God’s blessedness

“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole FAMILY in heaven and earth is named . . .” Ephesians 3:14-21.

The NEW COVENANT in Christ Jesus, to ensure our restoration from the cursed of the fall and the curse of the law that had us in bondage until our redemption was enacted and sealed by the precious blood of crucifixion, to make the New creation in us. [Genesis 3:1-24; Deuteronomy 28:1-68; Galatians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV; Ephesians 1:7-8; 1 Corinthians 11:23-36; Luke 22:19-20 (Matthew 26:26-28); Hebrews 8:7-13; Hebrews 9:13-25; Hebrews 12:22-24]

YOU ARE REDEEMED – FROM SIN AND ITS EFFECT

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE REDEEMED – FROM SIN AND ITS EFFECT: POVERTY, SICKNESS AND SPIRITUAL DEATH! 

Do you know what? I am so spirited, super excited, graciously happy, genuinely rejuvenating and absolutely overwhelmed with unspeakable joy and peace – simply for the daily KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING that – Christ had REDEEMED us from the CURSE of the FALL and of the LAW; for the LAW was as a consequence and results of the FALL. This makes my intent in Christ Jesus, more of a reality, awesomely and amazingly driven to POSSESSING OUR POSSESSIONS in REDEMPTION. 

Much more, we are REDEEMED from the summed curse EFFECT and STING of SIN: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. When you know and understand this, then your only responsibility is to APPROPRIATE, ENACT and ENSURE it by grace through FAITH toward GOD in Christ Jesus stead – Romans 5:1-2. For it is your spiritual – vital and legal RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in Christ Jesus, to POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS in Him. Amen. 

In the OLD TESTAMENT, the BLESSING of God was based on CONDITION – that is, CONDITIONALITY; but in the NEW TESTAMENT for the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus, God’s BLESSING is GIVEN, based on the DONE work of Christ Jesus for our REDEMPTION. Hence, I am emboldened to say that our REDEMPTION BLESSING – IS A DONE DEED. Just your act of Faith on the believe of the done deed is all you need to do. Even as Abraham BELIEVED the GOSPEL PREACHED to Him and he RECEIVED, so can we RECEIVE ‘WHEN’ not on the ‘IF’, we also BELIEVE as it’s written – 2 Corinthians 4:13, Galatians 3:6-9. Praise God. Hallelujah. Amen. 

Be BLESSED in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus.
