IT TAKES UNDERSTANDING TO PROFIT IN THE GRACE

By Leave a Comment

IT TAKES UNDERSTANDING TO PROFIT IN THE GRACE: GET THE UNDERSTANDING IN ALL YOUR KNOWING AND PASSION!

I have always said, and will always say: Until You UNDERSTAND whatever you claimed to KNOW or to have KNOWN in any matter of life and godliness, you are not better than the IGNORANT and the UNWISE – FOOL.

Having an idea is good, understanding your idea is another ball game. I have seen the assumed rich fall from the penthouse glory to be a beggar and have seen the one time poverty stricken rise to grace from grass. All because the assume rich just landed into wealth by a mere knowledge and zeal without understanding the take and know-how to sustain the position; while the once poverty stricken took to knowledge know-how along with understanding of the journey, arrives there, lives to sustain it, in spite of all challenges and changes of sphere, in life weather conditions.

Knowing your spouse is good, but if you don’t understand each other, there’s going to be a bomb explosion one day.

Being educated in a career or trade is good, but not understanding your career or trade will cause you a problem to yourself and to others probably one day.

Being a Gospel Minister is a gracious privilege. But not understanding the etiquette of being a  Shepherd of looking well over God’s heritage will make you a hypocrite and wolf in sheep clothing.

Being a leader or in government or position of making decision is good, but if you lack the understanding for leadership and governance, you will destroy the RESOURCES of such position – PEOPLE, TIME, EFFORTS, MATERIAL and FINANCE under your watch.

More so, a lack of UNDERSTANDING will cause you to always REACT, make EXCUSES and BLAME others for your inadequacy; It will cause you  not to take RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for your actions; and a lack of PURPOSEFUL UNDERSTANDING to achieving meaningful RESULTS.

In UNDERSTANDING, the PURPOSE of a thing is ACHIEVE with GRACE. A lack of ALL NEEDED UNDERSTANDING makes people live a life without PURPOSE for themselves and others. It’s time to be PRINCIPLED by doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY through UNDERSTANDING in the GRACE wherein we stand to become all that God in Christ Jesus has done in us, is doing in us and  through us by His WORD and the blessed HOLY SPIRIT of grace. Amen.

I know why the difference, the scriptures has an answer in all in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with ALL thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS (Ignorant, puff up, fool, disobedient) is HARD (Difficult Challenging, Rough)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine).

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION (Gathering, Places) of the dead (Unproductive, Foolish, Ignorant)” Proverbs 21:16 (Emphasis Mine).

THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD: IS PURE AND IMPARTIAL AND ENRICHING TO ALL – AND IS COMMUNICATED BY FAITH!

“Opening his mouth, Peter said: “Most certainly I UNDERSTAND now that God is not one to show PARTIALITY [to people as though Gentiles were EXCLUDED from God’s BLESSING], 35 but in EVERY NATION the PERSON who FEARS God and DOES what is right [by seeking Him] is ACCEPTABLE and WELCOMED by Him” Acts 10:34-35 Amplified.

The BLESSEDNESS of God in you, in Christ Jesus, needs to be harness, stir up and fan into flame in order to become tangible, reachable and liveable and loveable in all possible path of doing life and living godly, when it’s communicated by faith in the Holy Spirit that’s given to us..

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD thing which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:4-6.

“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 you have to realise and actualise in your total being, that, THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD, is PURE, ENRICHING and IMPARTIAL to all, including you, and is the GOOD and GOODNESS of God IN you IN Christ Jesus. It’s presence in you is a default to help you to be EFFECTUAL and EFFICIENT – that is, to be results oriented and productive, in bringing into reality and tangibility the needed things you need to do in life and to live godly, in Christ Jesus stead.  It’s by your willingness to acknowledge that the good and goodness of God in you, makes all the difference in you and through you, in order for you to advance the kingdom cause of our God and to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay effortlessly.

And it’s very important and imperative for you to come for yourself realisation and actualisation, that in the redemption of God, wherein His BLESSEDNESS is lavishly given and entrusted in us and to us, to enjoy as our rights and privileges, is given and done without partiality, sentiments prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy). For all of us have the same access by FAITH and stans by GRACE toward God in Christ Jesus, from every KINDRED and TONGUE and PEOPLE and NATION. And none of any, irrespective, is limited from the BLESSEDNESS of God by any means.

“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.

However, the FEAR of the unknown and through ignorance of not knowing what’s IN YOU to make a headway in God in Christ Jesus, makes people wants to hold other person or people as an entitlement and being responsible and accountable for their happiness, peace and fulfilment. I want you to know and understand that FEAR will intimidate, harasses, torment, embarrass, cowardice, frustrate, destroy, limit and do such like, to an individual in order for such individual to be rob of becoming what they ARE and OUGHT to be in God, in Christ Jesus stead.

The above paragraph on fear effects, it’s what happens to scriptural young Timothy that was called for a purpose as any and in spite of all PRAYERS and PROPHECY that was ENDOWED over him and given to him during his ordination, none could make him become as expected, because he allows FEAR, the ENEMY and COHORTS policing officer, to take hold of him. Fear took hold of him, and was there to rule and reign over him, hence he couldn’t become as supposedly with the THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD that’s in him. As such, he couldn’t function in LOVE, POWER and SOUND MIND of making rightful decisions, that would have taken and gotten him to the next stage of his life.

It took Apostle Paul presence, the need for a very good healthy mentor, in reminding him of his ENDOWED BLESSEDNESS and that the spirit of God given in him to harness, stir and fan into flame within him to MANIFEST into REALITY – all the good and goodness he earnestly desired, does not live and operates, within the sphere of fear. And that’s the reason he has to double up out of the spirit of fear sphere and all it represents, so that he can bring to reality the GOOD of God, done as a default in him in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“That is why I remind you to fan into flame the GRACIOUS GIFT of God, [that inner fire—the SPECIAL ENDOWMENT] which is IN YOU through the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 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 1:6-7.

And where THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD operates in perfect love, fear and it’s sphere will disappear into oblivion and the individual can take on any judgement that challenging the FAITH of access toward God and the GRACE upon which one stands in Christ Jesus, in harnessing THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD within, in order to create and initiate the heavenly atmosphere in our earthly affairs, as the Apostle John epistle admonishes and our Saviour Lord Jesus Christ, thought us on how to PRAY. 

“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” 1 John 4:17-18.

“And it came to pass, that, AS HE WAS PRAYING in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY, as John also taught his disciples. 2 And he said unto them, When ye PRAY, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy WILL be DONE, AS IN HEAVEN, so IN EARTH . . .” Luke 11:1-4.

It’s intriguing to note that 1 John 4:17 says, “. . . as He is, so ARE we in this world” while Luke 11:2 says, “. . . let your will be done as in heaven so ALSO in the earth”. This indicates how much we can by THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD within us as a default, we can create and initiate the atmosphere we want to see and enjoy of God irrespective of anything. For by the communication of our FAITH, and acknowledging of the good and goodness of God within us in Christ Jesus, is the HOW to harness, stir up and fan into flame, in order to the EFFECTUAL and EFFICIENT in our desired and needed results and productivity, in our path of doing life and living godly, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Just know today that THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD is PURE and ENRICHING and IMPARTIAL; and it’s not corruptible, neither is there a place for sorrow and anguishing for any to ROB you off it, so that you don’t go about blaming others by any means, process and platforms, for the inoperative of THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD in you. All simply because you have not made an intentional decision, and have not been able to harness, stir it up and fan into flame – THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD – within you, because of the fear and ignorance of your own, in not communicating by faith, through the acknowledging of the good and goodness of God IN you IN Christ Jesus. Amen.

I PRAY that you might abound in THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD in Christ Jesus in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love” Ephesians 1:3-4.

“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.

“. . . 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. 10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in CIRCUMCISION, or in UNCIRCUMCISION? Not in CIRCUMCISION, but in UNCIRCUMCISION. 11 And he received the SIGN OF CIRCUMCISION, A SEAL OF THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of the FAITH which he had yet being UNCIRCUMCISED: that he might be the FATHER OF ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE, though they be NOT CIRCUMCISED; that RIGHTEOUSNESS might be IMPUTED unto them also: 12 and the father of CIRCUMCISION to them who ARE NOT of the CIRCUMCISION only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet UNCIRCUMCISED . . .” Romans 4:1-25.

“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.

“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 3:13-14, 26-29.

WELCOME TO MONTH MAY 2024: MONTH OF EXPLORING, EXPRESSING AND ENACTING – “FAITH IN GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“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.

The Month MAY is the FIFTH month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars; and it’s the THIRD month of seven months to have a length of 31 days. Month MAY is a month of SPRING in the Northern Hemisphere and while it’s AUTUMN in the Southern Hemisphere. Month MAY, been the FIFTH [number 5] month, thus speaks of PERFECTING and PERFECTION which is reckoned to WHOLENESS, MATURITY, COMPLETENESS in BLESSEDNESS – just as the other numbers of 3, 7 and 9 has significance and have scriptural implications in the Christian Biblical faith-based on such numerical number’s and countings; and Month MAY, being of the numeric number 5 of the year calendar, indicates an opportunity in context of the Month MAY theme, for us to explore and express our – “FAITH ON GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. And may we stir up and harness graciously and gracefully this stand in grace, in order to enact, authenticate and actualised the FULNESS of God in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus; This will help to ensure and assure us in fulfilling God’s purpose for us in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

For the BLESSEDNESS of God is only tangible and in our reality when we are exercising, executing and expressing “FAITH IN GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” in Christ Jesus stead. And God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus is without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) to all irrespective. And with God, there’s no difference to all in His righteousness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For Christ is THE END OF THE LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to EVERY ONE that BELIEVETH. 5 For Moses describeth THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF THE LAW, That the man which doeth those things shall LIVE by them. 6 But the RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF FAITH speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 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. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever BELIEVETH on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is NO DIFFERENCE between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED” Romans 10:4-13.

And the BLESSEDNESS of God is PURE – meaning it’s incorruptible, irreplaceable and irreversible and priceless; and it can’t be counterfeited and it gives the enabling to fulfill God’s purpose to all irrespective – [Romans 8:28; Philippians 4:8; Proverbs 10:22; Matthew 6:19-23].

And through this Month MAY, I will be exploring matters that will enable you to have “FAITH ON GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” in Christ Jesus stead, that will make you lift up your justified holy hands without shame, fear, wrath, doubt, inferiority and self pity and cowardice and such like, as it’s written:

“I desire therefore that in every place men should pray, without anger or quarreling or resentment or doubt [in their minds], lifting up holy hands” 1 Timothy 2:8/AMP Classic Edition.

Under God, I welcome you to Month MAY, wherein we can take our stand on our justified righteous stand in Christ Jesus, to rule and reign in life on this side of heaven by our God in His BLESSEDNESS.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His RIGHTEOUSNESS, and all these things shall be added to you” Matthew 6:33 [Luke 12:31].

“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.

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they BEING IGNORANT of God’s righteousness, and seeking to ESTABLISH THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not submitted to THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to everyone who believes. 5 For Moses writes about THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF THE LAW, “The man who does those things shall live by them.” 6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) 7 or, “ ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto RIGHTEOUSNESS, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no DIFFERENCE between the JEW and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is RICH unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED”. Romans 10:1-13.

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the scepter of Your kingdom. 7 You love RIGHTEOUSNESS and hate wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has ANOINTED You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions” Psalms 45:6-7.

“And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire.” 8 But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the scepter of Your kingdom. 9 You have LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has ANOINTED You With the oil of gladness MORE THAN Your companions” Hebrews 1:7-9/NKJV.

“Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; 17 for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but RIGHTEOUSNESS and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit” Romans 14:16-17/NKJV.

“For I am NOT ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ, for it is THE POWER of God to SALVATION for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For in it THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD is REVEALED from faith to faith; as it is written, “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

“For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS will REIGN in life through the One, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in JUSTIFICATION of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be MADE righteous. 20 Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, 21 so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might REIGN through RIGHTEOUSNESS to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21/NKJV.

“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, and 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.

“I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting” 1 Timothy 2:8.

“Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger and disputing or quarreling or doubt [in their mind]” 1 Timothy 2:8/AMP

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

By Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING THE ESSENCE!

ESSENCE is the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something abstract, which determines its character. Hence the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of the ESSENCE of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY”, is of the same imperative if we are to appropriate into reality our rights and privileges in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“The FEAR (REVERENTIAL FEAR) of the Lord is the beginning of WISDOM: and the KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY is understanding” Proverbs 9:10 (Emphasis Mine).

For I am yet to find one Believer in Christ Jesus, who does not wants to ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE to see that everything about their Faith in Christ Jesus, is TANGIBLE, REACHABLE and LIVEABLE. Unfortunately not all are experiencing the FULLNESS of Christ Jesus stead in their day to day living, as expected IN THE GRACE wherein we STAND as in the Holy Writ.

“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.

In ESSENCE, actualising our REDEMPTION REALITY in Christ Jesus, can only be made possible through firstly – KNOWLEDGE – that is, by the ACKNOWLEDGING; and secondly it’s with the UNDERSTANDING of one’s FAITH in Christ Jesus – being COMMUNICATED to matters of Life and Godly Living as it’s written in the Holy Writ:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).

And until you can ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE the ESSENCE of REDEMPTION of Christ Jesus in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ Jesus will always be a – struggle, strange, burdensome, irksome and taskmaster like. It’s for this lack of the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” that there are many MERE – ‘AMEN’, HALLELUJAH’ ‘I RECEIVE’ and ‘BLESS ME’ – Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ. This OUGHT not to be so in Christ Jesus and for all that Christ Jesus is to us in God.

I am emboldened to say that you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a personal knowledge and understanding, of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in your redemption in Christ Jesus, of all that God has – DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and He’s DOING THROUGH YOU, supposedly and indeed.

Here are few ESSENCE to enable you see a gracious reasons to earnestly crave and seek for THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY through ACKNOWLEDGING and UNDERSTANDING of all that God deed for you in Christ Jesus; this is to help you APPROPRIATE and ENACT with ease your REDEMPTION into reality and as a POSSESSION. It is the KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING of these but not limited craving is what I want you to explore:

** That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the KNOWLEDGE of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

** That KNOWLEDGE will deliver from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29

** That your dominion in life is a product of your KNOWLEDGE – Daniel 11:32.

** That a man’s value for KNOWLEDGE determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.

** That the grace that determines our status is a function of KNOWLEDGE – 2 Peter 1:2.

** That when you run after KNOWLEDGE, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.

** That People who hate KNOWLEDGE can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

** That age is not equal to KNOWLEDGE, and should not be taken for KNOWLEDGE – Job. 32:7-9.

** That if your THOUGHTS are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.

** That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.

** That whatever KNOWLEDGE you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.

** That studying for KNOWLEDGE is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.

** That the only authentic proof of KNOWLEDGE is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.

** That when you don’t grow in the spirit of KNOWLEDGE, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.

** That those who seek to KNOW men, don’t know God; when you seek to KNOW God, people will seek to KNOW you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.

** That your KNOWLEDGE of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.

** And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured KNOWLEDGE – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

These writ above though not limited, indicate the essence of KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in order to access the FULNESS of Him. Hence I say, Don’t SETTLE and BECOME a believer in Christ Jesus, who is envelope just with – ‘BLESS ME’, ‘HALLELUJAH’, ‘I RECEIVE’, ‘AMEN’ and such like – seek after KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY ONE” for your ESSENCE and FULNESS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS” Obadiah 1:17.

“The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7 turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. 8 Behold, I have set the land before you: GO in and POSSESS the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them” Deuteronomy 1:6-8.

“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.

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and i will make of thee a GREAT NATION, and I will BLESS thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3.

“Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM” Ephesians 1:15-17.

“But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10 and have put on the new man, which is RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE after the image of him that created him: 11 where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all” Colossians 3:8-11.

“Who is a wise man and ENDUED WITH KNOWLEDGE among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom” James 3:13

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM that hath called us to glory and virtue” 2 Peter 1:1-3.

“But GROW in grace, and IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen” 2 Peter 3:18

“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.

“. . . 13 Therefore my people are gone into CAPTIVITY, because they have no KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. 14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. 15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: 16 but the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness” Isaiah 5:11-16.

STIRRING UP THE SPIRITUAL GRACE WITHIN

STIRRING UP THE SPIRITUAL GRACE WITHIN: GIVES THE ENABLING TO ENACT THE POWER, LOVE AND SOUND MIND YOU ARE ENDOWED!

“That is why I remind you to FAN INTO FLAME the gracious GIFT of God, [that inner fire—the special endowment] which is IN you through the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 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 2:6-7/AMP.

When you stir up the Spiritual gift within you, then the elements of FEAR – (and ALL it stands for) – will give way for you to exercise and actualise BOLDNESS, POWER, SOUND MIND, LOVE and PEACE in everyway of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

In Scriptural and translation version terms, to STIR UP means:

* To rekindle (NKJV)

* To fan into flames (NLT)

* To keep ablaze (Message Bible)

* To keep alive (Good News Translation)

* To flame into fire (LB)

*** And such like much and more . . . when actively in operation.

In ancient times embers were kept slowly burning so that they could be fanned into flames when a fire was needed. And we all need fire in our bones to set us ablaze for the next levels in our lives. For no flies hang around and about a flaming vicinity for any reason – indicating, that matters that are irrelevant to your wellbeing in fulfilling purpose can’t be within your vicinity when you are rekindling and inflaming by the Holy Spirit of life and grace to fulfill purpose.

Apostle Paul said to Timothy, if you MUST overcome FEAR of all sorts in life and godliness, he must FAN into flame – to rekindle and to keep alive the Holy Spirit gift within him, in order to ENJOY the sound mind, peace, love, self-control and more in his life and ministry, as he do life and live godly in Christ Jesus. Same also it’s applicable to you and I in life and grace.

And you CAN STIR UP the spirit within by praying in the Holy Spirit of grace to guarantee you the daily sense of being – VICTORIOUS, TRIUMPHANT, OVERCOMER, DOMINION and A MORE THAN CONQUERORS in life and grace.  And I can perceive you OVERCOME the spirit of FEAR of ALL sorts in Jesus’ name, as you stir up the spirit [human spirit] within by the Holy Spirit that is made available for us all to win in life in Christ Jesus –  Amen.

“But you, beloved, BUILD YOURSELVES UP on [the foundation of] your most holy faith [continually progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], PRAY in the Holy Spirit, 21 and keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously and looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ [which will bring you] to eternal life” Jude 1:20-21/AMP.

MONTH MAY 2023: THE MONTH OF HARNESSING

By Leave a Comment

MONTH MAY 2023: THE MONTH OF HARNESSING “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” IN YOU IN CHRIST JESUS!

“THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, it maketh RICH, and He ADDETH NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.

The Month MAY is the FIFTH month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars and the THIRD of seven months to have a length of 31 days. Month May is a month of SPRING in the Northern Hemisphere and AUTUMN in the Southern Hemisphere. Month MAY, been the FIFTH month speaks of PERFECTION which is reckoned to BLESSEDNESS, just as the numbers of 3, 7 and 9 has significance Scripturally; and Month MAY, being of the number 5 of the year calendar, indicate an opportunity to stir up and harness graciously and gracefully, in order to actualise in FULNESS, “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” in our redemption, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit that is GIVEN to us in this essence. Romans 4:1-25; Romans 5:5, 8; Romans 8:9-17; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

The BLESSEDNESS of God is free of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) to all irrespective. The BLESSEDNESS of God is PURE – it’s incorruptible and priceless. Philippians 4:8; Proverbs 10:22; Matthew 6:19-23.

To HARNESS in the context of the theme “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” means to take hold in grace, of the redemption we’ve received of God in Christ Jesus, toward fulfilling meaningfully, our God’s given plan, purpose and pursuit, in our path of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Proverbs 4:18-23; Psalms 16:11.

And “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” indicate the state (realm, sphere, position) of being BLESSED – with God’s divine favour – a state of being divinely fulfilling and having a meaningful happiness that’s indescribable and unimaginable and incomprehensible in Christ Jesus stead. Romans 4:5-10 *(vs 6, 9); 2 Corinthians 5:19 (17-21); Ephesians 1:3-4, 20; Ephesians 2:6-8.

And the BLESSING of THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD, is about living within the PURPOSE and POWER of God in REDEMPTION which is not of the modane things as car, money, gold, precious stones, property, qualification, status and such like, though it makes them come into reality when fully known and understood in essence. The Blessing of God is that God’s enabling endowments that cause the desired needed necessity of life as – car, money, gold, precious stones, property, qualification, status and such like – to become a reality and materialises in essence to be tangible, reachable, loveable and acceptable. Proverbs 10:25; Ephesians 1:3; Matthew 6:19-21.

It’s my earnest PRAYERS that in this month, you come to know and understand THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD in you, so that you can live meaningfully and purposefully in God’s enabling grace in Christ Jesus, with ease and comfort as God intended for you in doing life and living godly.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will BLESS thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that BLESS thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3.

“. . . 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. 10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in CIRCUMCISION, or in UNCIRCUMCISION? Not in CIRCUMCISION, but in UNCIRCUMCISION. 11 And he received the SIGN OF CIRCUMCISION, A SEAL OF THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of the FAITH which he had yet being UNCIRCUMCISED: that he might be the FATHER OF ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE, though they be NOT CIRCUMCISED; that RIGHTEOUSNESS might be IMPUTED unto them also: 12 and the father of CIRCUMCISION to them who ARE NOT of the CIRCUMCISION only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet UNCIRCUMCISED . . .” Romans 4:1-25.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love” Ephesians 1:3-4.

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

“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.

“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. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12.

“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” 1 Peter 3:8-9.

WELCOME TO THE DAWN OF MONTH MAY 2021

WELCOME TO THE DAWN OF MONTH MAY 2021: MONTH OF “FRUITFULNESS & MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT”!

Month MAY – “Month Of Harnessing The CHARISMA and CHARACTER Of The Holy Spirit For Your PERFECTION –  Wholeness, Completeness, Maturity and Fulness In Christ Jesus Stead”

Month MAY is the FIFTH month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars and the THIRD of seven months to have a length of 31 days. Month May is a month of SPRING in the Northern Hemisphere and AUTUMN in the Southern Hemisphere. Month MAY, been the FIFTH month speaks of PERFECTION, just as the number 3, 7 and 9 has significance Scripturally and being of the number 5 of the year calendar, indicates an opportunity to stir up, harness and actualise in FULNESS, our REDEMPTION by the Holy Spirit that is GIVEN to us in this essence. Romans 5:5, 8; Romans 8:9-17; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

PERFECTION – which in essence speaks of  WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS – is of God. Actually, it is of the REALM OF REVELATION of the Spirit, which the writer of Hebrews Scripture exhorts and admonished every Believers in Christ Jesus to endeavour to enter into such realm, in order to manifest, operate and actualise God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in REDEMPTION. It is a REALM which in essence, will bring us to the place wherein we can be able to escape religious and traditional dogmas, man-made belief, doctrinal creeds and by-laws that are of bondages and such like – Matthew 5:43-48; Hebrews 6:1-9; 2 Corinthians 7:1. etc.

For when Jesus DESCENDED and ASCENDED up on high afterwards, He led captivity captive and RECEIVED gifts – (spiritual endowment) and GAVE these gifts to men; this is for their enablement to be His ambassador and representative on His behalf, for their self-esteem and self-worth, for God’s Kingdom causes and for the good of humanity. 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

These spiritual ENDOWMENTS and ENABLEMENT are summed up as CHARISMA and CHARACTER to fulfil PURPOSE meaningfully. Their essence is to harness the Believer’s by the Holy Spirit toward PERFECTION – meaning WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS, in Christ Jesus Stead.

It must be noted that a mere spiritual CHARISMA without corresponding CHARACTER breeds arrogance, pride, rudeness and possibly false success in disguise; and a mere spiritual CHARACTER without CHARISMA breeds a form of religion that is dogmatic, traditionalistic, static – (no creative, innovative, initiative and exploring) and without inspiration, revelation and empowerment which is of the Holy Spirit, in Christ Jesus stead.

And by the acts of the Holy Spirit, one can possibly acquire the synergy of FRUITFULNESS and MATURITY in Christ Jesus stead, as RECEIVED and GIVEN to us, when He ascended up on high to ENSURE and ASSURE our access to the blessed REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Him.

And FRUITFULNESS as a result of spiritual FRUIT and spiritual GIFTS are of the Holy Spirit; and MATURITY as a consequence of the ministerial GIFTS of the Holy Spirit, is in essence for our PERFECTION (WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS) as God’s people in His BLESSEDNESS.

I therefore pray today for your onward, upward and forward trajectory in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS; I pray also that by these endowment and enabling of God, which is of the blessed Holy Spirit will not be frustrated by any reason; but rather, that these enabling endowment that Christ Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE us, in order to be FRUITFUL in CHARACTER and MATURED in CHARISMA, will abound more and more in His grace and stead. Romans 5:1-2; Galatians 2:20-21.

I therefore WELCOME you on God’s behalf, to MONTH MAY – Month of FRUITFULNESS AND MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT – to harness your well-being, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING unto PERFECTION – WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore LEAVING THE PRINCIPLES of the doctrine of Christ, LET US GO on unto PERFECTION; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this will we do, if God permit . . .” Hebrews 6:1-9.

“Thou hast ASCENDED on high, thou hast LED CAPTIVITY CAPTIVE: thou hast RECEIVED GIFTS FOR MEN; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them” PSALMS 68:18.

“But unto EVERY ONE of us is GIVEN grace according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he LED CAPTIVITY CAPTIVE, AND GAVE GIFTS UNTO MEN. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he GAVE some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 for the PERFECTING of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the FULNESS of Christ: 14 that we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 but speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 from whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the EFFECTUAL working in THE MEASURE OF EVERY PART, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love” EPHESIANS 4:7-16.

“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. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing” REVELATION 5:9-12.

“But the Fruit Of The Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” GALATIANS 5:22-25.

“And I will GIVE you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding” JEREMIAH 3:15.

“. . . 2 Every branch in me that BEARETH NOT FRUIT he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he PURGETH it, that it may bring forth MORE FRUIT . . .  4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear FRUIT of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth MUCH FRUIT: for without me ye can do nothing . . . 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear MUCH FRUIT; so shall ye be my disciples . . . 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and BRING FORTH FRUIT, and that your FRUIT SHOULD REMAIN: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” JOHN 15:1-16.

“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, PERFECTING holiness in the fear of God” 2 Corinthians 7:1.

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not FRUSTRATE THE GRACE of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in VAIN” Galatians 2:20-21.

SCRIPTURAL READING IN CONTEXT: Galatians 5:22-25; John 15:1-16; 1 Corinthians 12:1-11; Ephesians 4:11-16; 1 Corinthians 12:12-31; Romans 12:3-8. Hebrews 6:1-9.

LIVING BY THE HIGHER LAW

LIVING BY THE HIGHER LAW: THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE – GIVES FREEDOM AND EMPOWERS VICTORY AND DOMINION IN LIFE AND GRACE!

“For the LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE in Christ Jesus hath MADE ME FREE from the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH” Romans 8:2.

In life, there’s no one single educational system in the world that is designed to educate people to tell lies or cheat, or run down government or any of the  societal vices, or SICKNESS, DISEASES and INHUMANE and EVILS and WICKEDNESS we find in communities and nations today.

However, there’s a LAW OF NATURE in doing life; it’s the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH, which is operating knowingly or unknowingly on earth in every phase of doing life; and everyone by virtue of being born on earth found themselves to exhibits one or more of the traces of this law in their human’s nature and are affected directly or indirectly by the consequence of its operations.

But there’s another law, the LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS – this LAW gives the LEVERAGE over the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH [Romans 8:1-2]. SIN being the cause and effect for SICKNESS, POVERTY AND SPIRITUAL DEATH. And SPIRITUAL DEATH results to the PHYSICAL DEATH. Invariably will some to eternal death knowingly and unknowingly.

“For I joyfully delight in THE LAW of God in my inner self [with my new nature], 23 but I see a different law and rule of action in the members of my body [in its appetites and desires], WAGING WAR AGAINST THE LAW OF MY MIND and subduing me and making me a prisoner of THE LAW OF SIN which is within my members. 24 Wretched and miserable man that I am! Who will [rescue me and] set me free from this body of death [this corrupt, mortal existence]? 25 Thanks be to God [for my deliverance] THROUGH Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with MY MIND [SPIRIT-MIND] SERVE THE LAW of God, but on the other, with MY FLESH [my HUMAN NATURE, my WORLDLINESS, my SINFUL CAPACITY—I SERVE] THE LAW OF SIN” Romans 7:22-25/AMP.

Hence the HIGHER LAW, is the LAW to enables one live in DOMINION over All bondages which are the consequence and effect of SIN NATURE: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. Therefore, it’s imperative that you CONNECT to the HIGHER LAW today, and live FREE in Christ for VIRTUE and GLORY.

I urge you therefore in Christ Jesus stead, to STRIVE LAWFULLY on the HIGHER LAW in order to WIN in life, live in DOMINION and VICTORY and to be FULFILLED in it all effortless and without sweat in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS.

“And if a man also STRIVE FOR MASTERIES, yet is he NOT CROWNED, except he STRIVE LAWFULLY” 2 Timothy 2:5.

LIVING BY THE HIGHER LAW – THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS – SETS ONE FREE – AND KEEPS ONE IN THE REALM OF DOMINION.

“For the LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE in Christ Jesus hath MADE ME FREE from the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH” Romans 8:2.

“Therefore there is NOW NO CONDEMNATION [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who ARE in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior]. 2 For THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our NEW BEING] has set you FREE from THE LAW OF SIN AND OF DEATH. 3 For what THE LAW could not do [that is, OVERCOME sin and REMOVE its PENALTY, its POWER] being weakened by THE FLESH [man’s nature WITHOUT the Holy Spirit], God did: He sent His own Son in the likeness of sinful man as an offering for sin. And He CONDEMNED SIN in THE FLESH [SUBDUED it and OVERCAME it in the person of His own Son], 4 so that the [righteous and just] requirement of the Law might be FULFILLED in us who do not live our lives in THE WAYS OF THE FLESH [guided by worldliness and our sinful nature], but [live our lives] in THE WAYS OF THE SPIRIT [guided by His power]. 5 For those who are living according to the flesh set their minds on the things of THE FLESH [which gratify the body], but those who are living according to THE SPIRIT, [set their minds on] the things of the Spirit [His will and purpose]. 6 Now THE MIND OF THE FLESH IS DEATH [both now and forever—because it pursues sin]; but THE MIND OF THE SPIRIT is life and peace [the spiritual well-being that comes from walking with God—both now and forever]; 7 THE MIND OF THE FLESH [with its sinful pursuits] is ACTIVELY HOSTILE to God. It does not SUBMIT itself to God’s law, since it cannot, 8 and those who ARE in the flesh [living a life that caters to sinful appetites and impulses] CANNOT PLEASE God” Romans 8:1-8/AMP.
