GREATER LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS: IT’S MADE POSSIBLE AND PERFECTED BY ABIDING IN GOD’S LOVE!

“Herein is our LOVE made PERFECT (COMPLETE, WHOLE, MATURE, TOTAL), that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of JUDGMENT (QUESTIONING; CHALLENGE): BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in LOVE; but PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR, because FEAR involves TORMENT. But he who FEARS has not been MADE PERFECT IN LOVE” 1 John 4:17-18 Emphasis Mine.

God’s GREATER LOVE is already perfected and made complete in you in Christ Jesus. I pray you know it and stop all the worries of nobody loves you. God’s love is shed lavishly and strongly in your hearts by the abiding Holy Spirit that dwells within you knowingly or unknowingly.

“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” Romans 5:5.

And the graciously gracious and gracefully graceful way to kick start each day and the week, is the knowing and understanding that God loves you and wants you to ABIDE the more in His LOVE by His WORD.

“If ye ABIDE in me, and MY WORDS ABIDE in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; ABIDE IN MY LOVE. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will ABIDE IN MY LOVE, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and ABIDE IN HIS LOVE” John 15:7-10.

ABIDING makes God’s love and joy PERFECTED in you. It can make your being, to live and walk in this God’s LOVE today – for LOVE is the greatest. For God’s PERFECTED LOVE drives out fear, hatred, mistrust, all forms of complex, evil and wickedness.

I pray you have a graciously gracious week of perfected love. For perfected love produce perfected praise. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Herein is OUR LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR IN LOVE; BUT PERFECT LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: because FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also” 1 John 4:17-21.

“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.

“As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; ABIDE IN MY LOVE. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will ABIDE IN MY LOVE, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and ABIDE IN HIS LOVE. 11 These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.  12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.  13 GREATER LOVE has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends” John 15:9-13.

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG IN ORDER TO BECOME

By Leave a Comment

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG IN ORDER TO BECOME: FOR NO WORD – NO FAITH, IF YOU MUST FUNCTION TO BECOME!

It’s time for you to – DARE TO BELIEVE – as you BELONG in the faith, in order for you to BECOME by God’s WORD, in EVERYWAY, in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

Many times I have seen Church folks being very sceptical for a full dedication and commitment to God’s WORD and to His work in His Church, and yet want the FULLNESS of God’s POWER and GRACE to FUNCTION and BECOME in everyway in LIFE and GODLINESS. Most reasons are simply for their FEAR PHOBIA that they may lose out if they do make such acts to be dedicated and committed. And unfortunately, their been sceptical had not made them better in spite of their despise to God’s WORD and His Church – (1 John 5:3-5).

I make BOLD to say that God is GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to His WORD and will NEVER fail and CAN’T and WON’T begin to FAIL because of YOU. And FAITH is only active to bring about results to FUNCTION and BECOME by the WORD – (Romans 10:17). Faith in Christ Jesus, is of the WORD. FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE and neither a doctrinal nor denominational creed and religious dogma that is just there to be known.

Faith is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus’ life access and justified essence in grace with God. Faith is ACTING correspondingly on what you believe in God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE, while FAITH is ACTIVE. BELIEVE is the CONCEPTION and CONSEQUENCE of what you HEAR of God’s WORD, while FAITH is the action upon that conception and consequence of the hearing, to bring it into reality accordingly. Meaning a NO FAITH, means a NO access and essence for God to reward one’s endeavours to FUNCTION and BECOME in God – (Hebrews 11:6).

And to FUNCTION and BECOME in God, one needs to ensure that they BELIEVE in Christ Jesus and BELONG to His Church with a daring spirit and not fear phobia, in LIFE and GODLINESS. And you can then FUNCTION and BECOME what you BELIEVE upon in God’s WORD by God’s POWER and GRACE in Christ Jesus. Amen.

I PRAY YOU DARE TO BELIEVE IN ORDER TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But as many as RECEIVED him, to them gave he POWER to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH” John 1:12-14.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous (irksome, burdensome, taskmaster). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMES the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMES the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMES the world, but he that BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“And when Jesus departed thence, TWO BLIND MEN followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. 28 And when he was come into the house, THE BLIND MEN came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, BELIEVE YE THAT I AM ABLE TO DO THIS? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it” Matthew 9:27-30.

DEAR CHILD OF GOD: DON’T GO DOWN TO EGYPT!

By Leave a Comment

DEAR CHILD OF GOD: DON’T GO DOWN TO EGYPT!

“Now there was a FAMINE (ECONOMIC CRISIS) in the land [of Canaan], besides the previous FAMINE that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to Abimelech king of the Philistines. 2 The Lord appeared to him and said, “DO NOT GO DOWN TO EGYPT; stay in the land of which I will tell you . . .” Genesis 26:1-16.

No matter how DEADEN and DARKEN your situation or circumstances are, or the FAMINE – ECONOMIC CRISIS – in your life, you need to know, you are a COVENANT child and you don’t need to be bewildered to let anything make you GO DOWN TO EGYPT or learn of their ways as in the world systems as govern by satan and cohorts, in order for you to MAKE things easier in your doing life and to live godly. Inform yourself that you ARE in the world, but NOT of the world ways of doing life to live godly at the same. For you ARE of God and the GREATER GOD lives in you as it’s written:

“YOU ARE OF GOD, little children, and have OVERCOME them: BECAUSE GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN YOU, THAN HE THAT IS IN THE WORLD. 5 THEY ARE OF THE WORLD: therefore speak they of the WORLD, and the WORLD heareth them. 6 WE ARE OF GOD: he that KNOWETH God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.

“For WHATSOEVER IS BORN of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY THAT OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, EVEN OUR FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

 Therefore, by the enabling GRACE and the POWER of the GREATER one inside you, you can confront your situation, that is to say, that MOUNTAIN or VALLEY or ROUGH places or CROOKED roads of your life can be overcome triumphantly. This is by pondering on God’s WORD – that is, MEDITATING, on the covenant WILL of God  in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus on that subject MATTER concerning you; and this is based on your believe and faith on the WORD, as led by the Blessed Holy Spirit, in order to make and ensure your way to the PROSPERITY and GOOD SUCCESS in God’s PURPOSE for you – Joshua 1:8-9; 3 John 2; Psalms 37:25; Psalms 35:27; Psalms 1:1-3.

Upon the knowledge and understanding in SCRIPTURAL context of God’s WORD to ENSURE you become in God in Christ Jesus, I can say to you today, to be STRONG and very COURAGEOUS in the Lord because your VICTORY and TRIUMPH is a certainty. It is your right in grace in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead as says in Joshua 1:1-9 and Isaiah 40:3-5 and 1 John 5:3-5.

In the scriptural context of Genesis 26:1-16, EGYPT stands for one’s STATE of – unbelief, backsliding, famine, economic crisis, hunger, joblessness, hopelessness, faithlessness, lovelessness, setbacks, failures, pain, hurt, depression, the unbeliever acts of doing life and such like. And, as a child of God, it thus means, that you don’t need to FAKE it to make and achieve greatness in LIFE and GODLINESS. Therefore, DARE TO BELIEVE in God’s WORD and act upon it in the FAITH, and you will BECOME as the covenant Isaac BECAME when he act on his covenant will of God’s WORD concerning him when the opportunity to act on God’s WORD shows up to deal with the economic crisis that almost bewildered him.

If you are on the RED LIGHT of life, please stop and take a purse, take time to ponder on the WORD of grace and patiently wait through the AMBER LIGHT until the GREEN LIGHT of FAITH shows up – then go and BECOME as you are LED of God by the Holy Spirit in His WORD accordingly – Genesis 26:12-16.

It’s wishes and PRAYERS for you today, that you may experience the BLESSEDNESS of God in times of your challenges in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For God, who commanded the LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS, hath SHINED IN OUR HEARTS, to Give The Light Of The Knowledge of the glory of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

“Now there was a FAMINE (ECONOMIC CRISIS) in the land [of Canaan], besides the previous FAMINE that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to Abimelech king of the Philistines. 2 The Lord APPEARED to him and said, “DO NOT GO DOWN TO EGYPT; stay in the land of which I will tell you. 3 Live temporarily [as a resident] in this land and I will be with you and will BLESS and FAVOR you, for I will give all these lands to you and to your descendants, and I will ESTABLISH and carry out the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. 4 I will make your descendants MULTIPLY as the stars of the heavens, and will give to your descendants all these lands; and by your descendants shall all the nations of the earth be BLESSED, 5 because Abraham LISTENED to and OBEYED My voice and [consistently] kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.” . . . 12 Then Isaac PLANTED [seed] in that land [as a farmer] and REAPED in the same year a hundred times [as much as he had planted], and the Lord BLESSED and FAVORED him. 13 And the man [Isaac] BECAME great and gained more and more until he BECAME very wealthy and extremely distinguished; 14 he OWNED flocks and herds and a great household [with a number of servants], and the Philistines ENVIED him. 15 Now all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped up by filling them with dirt. 16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from here, because you are far too powerful for us.” 17 So Isaac left that region and camped in the Valley of Gerar, and settled there” Genesis 26:1-5, 12-16 Amplified.

“And this is the CONFIDENCE that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to HIS WILL, he heareth us: 15 and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him” 1 John 5:14-15.

“CAST NOT AWAY THEREFORE YOUR CONFIDENCE, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul” Hebrews 10:35-39.

“BE STRONG AND OF A GOOD COURAGE: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them. 7 Only be thou STRONG AND VERY COURAGEOUS, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest. 8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” Joshua 1:6-9.

“He shall DELIVER thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee. 20 IN FAMINE HE SHALL REDEEM THEE FROM DEATH: AND IN WAR FROM THE POWER OF THE SWORD. 21 Thou shalt be HID from the SCOURGE of the TONGUE: neither shalt thou be AFRAID OF DESTRUCTION when it cometh.  22 At DESTRUCTION and FAMINE thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the BEASTS of the earth. 23 For thou shalt be in LEAGUE with the stones of the field: and the BEASTS of the field shall be at peace with thee” Job 5:19-23.

“Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; 19 to DELIVER their soul from death, and to keep them ALIVE IN FAMINE. 20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield” Psalms 33:18-20.

“. . . The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. 19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: AND IN THE DAYS OF FAMINE THEY SHALL BE SATISFIED . . . 23 The STEPS OF A GOOD MAN ARE ORDERED BY THE LORD: AND HE DELIGHTETH IN HIS WAY. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand” Psalms 37:18-19, 23-24.

“The VOICE of him that crieth in the WILDERNESS, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, MAKE STRAIGHT IN THE DESERT A HIGHWAY for our God. 4 EVERY VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and EVERY MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be MADE LOW: and the CROOKED shall be MADE STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH PLACES PLAIN: 5 and the GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and ALL FLESH shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 40:3-5.

GENUINE LOVE: KNOWS NO FEAR IN CHRIST JESUS!

Genuine Love, which is of God – KNOWS NO FEAR – for as God is in love in Christ Jesus – so ARE we in His world in and for this world 1 John 4:17-18.

“Herein is our LOVE made PERFECT (COMPLETE, WHOLE, MATURED), that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in LOVE; but PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR, because FEAR involves TORMENT. But he who FEARS has not been MADE PERFECT IN LOVE” 1 John 4:17-18 Emphasis Mine.

Love is gracious and nobody ever reject genuine love when it shows up. Not even the Devil if he has an opportunity to be shown which unfortunately not available to his and cohorts reach.

That shouldn’t be, for GENUINE love which is of God in human HEARTS, and not in the human HEAD, have – no fear, intimidation, timidity, cowardice, wickedness and evil in it, except there’s PERVERSION. For its when PURPOSE of a thing is misappropriated that ABUSE and PERVERSION sets in. And that’s not enough to be afraid in living and walking in love

The Genuine – LOVE OF GOD – is possible and it’s here: it’s graciously and lavishly shared abroad in our HEARTS (spirit being) by the Holy Spirit is given to us.

“. . . the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us” Romans 5:5.

Perfect love, meaning, genuine love will cast out the spirit of fear, cowardice and inferiority complex of all forms of perversion. God is love, He can’t offer or make you live and walk in fear when you are living and walking in His love. Where genuine love is – shows up, there is no room for lust or hate or selfishness or greed or any form of perversion.

JUST KNOW THIS – GENUINE LOVE OF GOD – KNOWS NO FEAR – FOR AS HE’S IN LOVE – SO ARE WE IN HIS WORLD OF LOVE, IN THIS WORLD.

“In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him]; BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love [dread does not exist]. But PERFECT (complete, full-grown) love drives out FEAR, because Fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is AFRAID [of God’s judgment] is not PERFECTED in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]” 1 John 4:17-18 (Amplified).

“For God hath not GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:7.

“For God did not GIVE us a spirit of TIMIDITY or COWARDICE or FEAR, but [He has GIVEN us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified).

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS (SPIRIT MAN) 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.

THE STORY OF TWO WOLVES: THE CHOICE IS YOURS – THE ONE YOU FEED!

A dear brother and friend sent me this THOUGHT PONDERING and awakening writ in picture.

I hope you make a sense out of it for your own good for today and tomorrow as it’s written also in the scripture:

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are TRUE, whatsoever things are HONEST, whatsoever things are JUST, whatsoever things are PURE, whatsoever things are LOVELY, whatsoever things are of GOOD REPORT; if there be any VIRTUE, and if there be any PRAISE, THINK (FEED, MEDITATE, PONDER) ON THESE THINGS” Philippians 4:8 EMPHASIS MINE.

“Finally, believers, whatever is TRUE, whatever is Honourable and worthy of RESPECT, whatever is RIGHT and CONFIRMED by God’s word, whatever is PURE and WHOLESOME, whatever is LOVELY and brings PEACE, whatever is ADMIRABLE and of GOOD REPUTE; if there is any EXCELLENCE, if there is anything WORTHY of PRAISE, THINK CONTINUALLY on these things [CENTER your mind on them, and implant them in your heart]” Philippians 4:8 AMPLIFIED.

FULFILMENT IN CHRIST

By Leave a Comment

FULFILMENT IN CHRIST: THE CHOICE OF – BEING FULFILLED IN LIFE And GODLINESS – VERSUS – BEING SUCCESSFUL!

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

Obedience to the heavenly mandate have a lot to do with FULFILMENT in Life and godliness in Christ Jesus. And the choice of being FULFILLED in life and godliness (godly living) is one great factor worth considering in the race of being SUCCESSFUL.

Can you afford to move from a place in pursuit of GLAMOUR SUCCESS TO A DESERT PLACE IN LIFE? But such could be a place of FULFILLMENT indeed. It’s about following God’s approved PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for your life and possible ministry rather than just having a mere SUCCESS for men applaud.

A person in pursuit of a MERE SUCCESS inclination will find it extremely difficult to leave a GLAMOUR place (position) to attend to a single person ministry especially to such one in the DESERT (remote) place as accomplished,  by Philip the Evangelist (Acts 21:8) as instructed by the Lord God. And such obedience to DIVINE order and instructions, is only possible of a person of and for FULFILMENT; that’s a follower of God’s plan, purpose and pursuit – the one who truly will believe in WHOLENESS and will go WHEREVER the Lord LEADS as Philip did in Acts 8 – “OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE”.

WHAT IS YOUR WORTH IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN CHRIST JESUS? or How do you WORTH yourself in life and godly living in Christ Jesus? Is it by material achievement called SUCCESS or by being ACCOMPLISHED in God’s given vision and mission called FULFILMENT in His assignment.

Are you just a mere crazy SUCCESS driven inclination person or a person of FULFILMENT in the heavenly assignment. Note for sure that SUCCESS is good and it’s of God (Joshua 1:8). Unlike success, FULFILMENT is not just only of God, but it’s a place of being readily, willingly and obediently set to accomplish in the wholeness, completeness and fulfilling of the Lord’s –  PLANS, PURPOSES and PURSUITS – in LIFE and GODLY living. Doing this unhindered and uncompromised with any sorts outside God’s intent, as Apostle Paul did in obedience (Philippians 3:1-16), and exhorted, admonished and charged Archippus to likewise do also as written in the Holy Writ of Colossians 4:17 and Acts 26:19.

It’s about living a God DRIVEN PURPOSE LIFE, that brings about MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, which is far beyond – just being SUCCESSFUL.

FULFILMENT is in CONTINUOUS OBEDIENCE to God’s APPROVED plan, purpose and pursuit. And OBEDIENCE to the heavenly mandate is far better than SACRIFICE – Isaiah 1:19; 1 Samuel 15:23.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; JESUS OF NAZARETH, A MAN APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22.

“And the next day we that were of Paul’s company departed, and came unto Cæsarea: and we entered into the house of PHILIP THE EVANGELIST, which was one of the seven; and abode with him” Acts 21:8.

“. . . Then Philip went down to THE CITY OF SAMARIA, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which PHILIP SPAKE, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY . . . 26 And the angel of the Lord SPAKE unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is DESERT. 27 AND HE AROSE AND WENT: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, 28 was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. 29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot . . . 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and PREACHED UNTO HIM JESUS. 36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; AND HE BAPTIZED HIM . . .” Acts 8:1-40.

“If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall EAT the GOOD of the LAND” Isaiah 1:19.

“If they OBEY and SERVE him, they shall spend their DAYS in PROSPERITY, and their YEARS in PLEASURES. 12 But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge” Job 36:11-12.

“For REBELLION is as the SIN of WITCHCRAFT, and STUBBORNNESS is as INIQUITY and IDOLATRY. Because thou hast rejected THE WORD of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king” 1 Samuel 15:23.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

THE KINGDOM CAUSE

THE KINGDOM CAUSE: IT’S BY GOD’S POWER AND GRACE!

“And with great POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

The Kingdom cause of God is about doing life and living godly, by God’s POWER and GRACE in everywhere and everyway. The POWER makes one to FUNCTION and the GRACE makes one to BECOME in Him, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

These happens when you take the bold step to stand in God’s GRACE and POWER to speak the words of this life UNRESERVEDLY in Christ Jesus stead at any point of opportunity as it’s written:

“Go, STAND and SPEAK in the TEMPLE to the people ALL the WORDS of this life” Acts 5:20.

“Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, TEACHING and PREACHING THE WORD of the Lord, with many others also. 36 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and VISIT our BRETHREN in EVERY CITY where we have PREACHED THE WORD of the Lord, and SEE HOW THEY DO” Acts 15:35-36.

GOD’S INTENT IS TO BLESS ALL

By Leave a Comment

GOD’S INTENT IS TO BLESS ALL: The NATION [As ISRAEL] – The PRIEST [As AARON] – The PEOPLE [As THOSE THAT REVERENCE] The LORD!

“And they sung a NEW song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast SLAIN, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and PRIESTS: and we shall REIGN on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

God’s intent is to BLESS [EMPOWER] all to achieve their individual given PURPOSE in Him. For His BLESSEDNESS is about EMPOWERING all – the redeemed people that made up and constitutes into nation, priesthood and all of His creation. And God in the course of His purpose is to BLESS the individual nations and all who REVERENCE Him as the Lord God and His priesthood servants who are called of Him to give spiritual direction of His intent to all irrespective without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation – [Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:11-12/AMP].

Jesus Christ in essence concerning God’s redemption for mankind is the sum and end of – the Law, the Psalms, and the Prophets; and in Him we are all BLESSED [EMPOWERED] of the Father God by the Holy Spirit, to enable us fullfil His purpose in REDEMPTION for us all, in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Luke 24:26-27, 44-46; John 1:45; Matthew 22:34-46; Ephesians 1:3].

God wants to see every Nation and all People [great and small] and His Priests [the REDEEMED royal priesthood] to have access and enjoy His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus as promised in REDEMPTION bill of rights and privileges – [Revelation 5:9-10; 1 Peter 2:9-10; Acts 10:34-35; Proverbs 14:34; Revelation 4:11].

The Holy  writ book of Psalms 115:9-18, gives a sum of three perspectives and identifications of Father God, as your opportunity to have FAITH in His intent to lavish His BLESSEDNESS to you as His redeemed priesthood, His people, His nation as in His redemption in Christ Jesus stead as Abraham seed. Amen. [Genesis 12:1-3; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29].

“O ISRAEL, trust thou in the Lord: He is their help and their shield. 10 O house of AARON, trust in the Lord: He is their help and their shield. 11 Ye that FEAR the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield. 12 The Lord hath been MINDFUL of us: He will BLESS us; He will BLESS the HOUSE OF ISRAEL; he will BLESS the HOUSE OF AARON. 13 He will BLESS them that FEAR THE LORD, BOTH SMALL AND GREAT. 14 The Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children. 15 Ye are BLESSED of the Lord which made heaven and earth. 16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the earth hath he given to the children of men. 17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence. 18 But we will BLESS the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord” Psalms 115:9-18.

“And [now] they sing a NEW song, saying, You are worthy to take the scroll and to break the seals that are on it, for You were SLAIN (sacrificed), and with Your blood You PURCHASED men unto God from every TRIBE and LANGUAGE and PEOPLE and NATION. 10 And You have made them a kingdom (ROYAL RACE) and PRIESTS to our God, and they shall REIGN [as kings] over the earth! 11 Then I looked, and I heard the voices of many angels on every side of the throne and of the living creatures and the elders [[a]of the heavenly Sanhedrin], and they numbered ten thousand times ten thousand and thousands of thousands, 12 Saying in a loud voice, Deserving is the Lamb, Who was sacrificed, to RECEIVE all the POWER and RICHES and WISDOM and MIGHT and HONOUR and MAJESTY (GLORY, SPLENDOR) and BLESSING!” Revelation 5:9-12/AMP Classic Edition.

THE PROMISED BLESSEDNESS OF GOD

THE PROMISED BLESSEDNESS OF GOD: IT’S ACCOMPANIED BY HIS POWER TO BRING ABOUT HIS REALITY IN YOU!

“And, behold, I send the PROMISE of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be ENDUED WITH POWER from on high” Luke 24:49.

The BLESSEDNESS of God is about EMPOWERING in His will . . . For to be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED – to succeed, to achieve, to become, to attain, to fulfill, to create, to initiate, to explore and to be assured, to be purposeful, to be meaningful and such like in life and grace in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

And it’s by the Holy Spirit that the New Creation Believer is EMPOWERED to access the promised God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead . . . [Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; Romans 1:16-17; Romans 8:28; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10].

* And God BLESSED them . . . Genesis 1:22, 28.

* And God BLESSED Noah and sons . . . Genesis 9:1.

* And the LORD had BLESSED Abraham in all things . . . Genesis 24:1, 35.

* For the Lord thy God hath BLESSED thee in all the works of thy hand . . . Deuteronomy 2:7.

* For the Lord thy God BLESSETH thee, as he promised thee . . . Deuteronomy 15:6.

* 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.

* And you ARE REDEEMED and BLESSED of God . . . Galatians 3:13-14 [6-9, 13-14, 26-29].

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING ON CONTEXT:

“And, behold, I send the PROMISE of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be ENDUED WITH POWER from on high” Luke 24:49.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. 18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19 Behold, I give unto you POWER to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven” Luke 10:17-20.

“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” Romans 5:5.

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who LOVE God, to those who are CALLED according to His PLAN and PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/AMP.

“In Him also we have RECEIVED an inheritance [a destiny—we were claimed by God as His own], having been PREDESTINED (chosen, appointed beforehand) according to the PURPOSE of Him who works everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him as our Lord and Savior] would exist to the praise of His glory” Ephesians 1:11-12/AMP.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

NOT ASHAMED: TO – PREACH – TEACH – AND MINISTER – THE GOSPEL TO ANY!

NOT ASHAMED: TO – PREACH – TEACH – AND MINISTER – THE GOSPEL TO ANY!

Are you ASHAMED or EMBOLDENED to PREACH, TEACH, AND MINISTER the GOSPEL to the unreached, untouched, and unsaved within your family, community, and environment? Do you know the cost of a soul?

“. . . .They that TRUST in their WEALTH, and BOAST themselves in the multitude of their RICHES; 7 none of them can by any means REDEEM his brother, nor GIVE to God a ransom for him, 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their soul is PRECIOUS, and it ceaseth for ever:) 9 that he should still live forever, and not see corruption . . . “ Psalms 49:1-20 Amplified.

The cost of a soul is not qualified or quantified by any de facto currency and nothing on earth can be equivalent to amount to the cost of that soul near you, that might need the Gospel while you yet passed by as if it doesn’t matter.

There’s NO contention, controversy, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) in the GOSPEL – and that’s what makes it unique in all in making difference in all 

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the flesh, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“For THE PREACHING of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is THE POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy THE WISDOM of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish THE WISDOM of this world? 21 For after that in THE WISDOM of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For THE JEWS require a sign, and THE GREEKS seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ crucified, unto the JEWS a stumbling block, and unto the GREEKS foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24.

“Therefore, they that were scattered abroad went everywhere PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were HEALED. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that city” Acts 8:4-8.

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye STAND; 2 by which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.

“And Jesus went about all the CITIES and VILLAGES, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the gospel of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35.

“And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to PREACH the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:16-22.

“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” Galatians 3:6-9.
