TO OPERATE IN THE REALM OF SONSHIP: BE LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT!

“For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they ARE the SONS of God” Romans 8:14.

The realm of SONSHIP in Christ is not for those who merely or just have the Spirit within, but it’s a realm for those who are LED by His presence. Are you being LED by Him on a day to day or you just have Him only for a keep or whenever.

Sonship in this context is a non-gender. Being a CHILD of God is good and great. It only offers you entrance as a baby under tutors and guidance. But in the realm of being a SON – SONSHIP, you exercise dominion, authority based on PRINCIPLE and define your life plan, purpose and pursuit statuesque in Christ Jesus. It’s a position that’s endowed with trust and integrity, diligence and prudence, reverential fear and love, responsibility and accountability,  grace and speed, truth and righteousness, will and obedience, wisdom and virtue, charisma and character, and such like. The intent is to advance God’s Kingdom causes on earth and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay in every way of doing LIFE and living GODLY, in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead.

By being LED by Him – the Holy Spirit of TRUTH, you unveil yourself to the realm of REVELATION on the written and unwritten WORD of God which I call the working ACTS of the HOLY SPIRIT within. For SONSHIP POSITION is about being LED by the Holy Spirit through our human spirit on the WORD of God.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“If ye love me, keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you ANOTHER COMFORTER, that HE may ABIDE WITH you forever; 17 even the Spirit of truth; whom THE WORLD CANNOT RECEIVE, because it seeth him not, neither KNOWETH him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth WITH you, and shall be IN you” John 14:15-17.

“For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they ARE the SONS of God. 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have RECEIVED the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth WITNESS with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together” Romans 8:14-17 (Emphasis Mine).

“But you have an ANOINTING from the Holy One [you have been set apart, specially GIFTED and PREPARED by the Holy Spirit], and all of you know [the TRUTH because He TEACHES us, ILLUMINATES our minds, and GUARDS us from error]. . . 27 As for you, the ANOINTING [the special gift, the preparation] which you RECEIVED from Him REMAINS [permanently] in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you. But just as His anointing teaches you [giving you insight through the presence of the Holy Spirit] about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as His anointing has taught you, [a]you must remain in Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him]” 1 John 2:20, 27 (AMPLIFIED).

“. . . 9 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 2:6-10 (Emphasis Mine).

“Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a CHILD, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; 2 but is under TUTORS and GOVERNORS until the time appointed of the father. 3 Even so we, when we were CHILDREN, were in bondage under the ELEMENTS of the world: 4 but when the FULNESS of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of SONS. 6 And because YE ARE SONS, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 Wherefore thou art no more a SERVANT, but a SON; and if a SON, then an HEIR of God through Christ” Galatians 4:1-7.

“The spirit of man is the CANDLE (LAMP, SEARCHLIGHT), of the Lord, SEARCHING (EXAMINING) all the inward parts of the belly” Proverbs 20:27 Emphasis Mine.

“But there is a spirit in man: and the INSPIRATION of the Almighty GIVETH them understanding” Job 32:8.

“The Spirit of God hath MADE me, and the BREATH of the Almighty hath GIVEN me life” Job 33:4.

“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the BREATH of life; and man BECAME a LIVING soul” Genesis 2:7.

“For THE WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the DIVIDING (CUTTING) ASUNDER (SEPARATION) of SOUL and SPIRIT, and of THE JOINTS and MARROW, and is a DISCERNER of the thoughts and intents of the HEART. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13.

“And the very God of peace SANCTIFY (SET APART) you WHOLLY (COMPLETELY); and I pray God your WHOLE SPIRIT (SUBCONSCIOUS, SEARCHLIGHT, CANDLE, LAMP) and SOUL (WILL, MIND, EMOTION, REASONING FACULTY, CONSCIOUS YOU) and BODY (THE JOINTS and MARROW) be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Emphasis Mine).

STAY ON YOUR LANE – DON’T COMPARE OR COMPETE: THE WORLD NEEDS YOUR OWN STORY!

“For we DARE NOT make ourselves of the number, or COMPARE ourselves with some that COMMEND themselves: but they MEASURING themselves by themselves, and COMPARING themselves among themselves, ARE NOT WISE” 2 Corinthians 10:12.

BE YOU IN LIFE AND GRACE – GODLY LIVING. BECOME WHOM AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD AND NOT SOMEONE ELSE. BE MEANINGFUL AND FULFILLED IN THE PURPOSE AND CAUSE THAT YOU ARE FOLLOWING IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN YOU!!

AND SAY AMEN.

My wife sent this highly recommend lovely read below by BEN CARSON this morning to me. I pray you get wisdom from it as you read it too. It’s inspiring and empowering.

BEN CARSON WROTE:

I was jogging this morning and I noticed a person about ½ a kilometer ahead. I could tell he was running a little slower than me and I thought, good, I shall try to catch him. I had about a kilometer before I needed to turn off. So I started running faster and faster.

Every block, I was gaining on him just a little bit. After just a few minutes I was only about 100 meters behind him, so I really picked up the pace and pushed myself. You would have thought I was running in the last leg of an Olympic competition. I was determined to catch him.

Finally, I did it! I caught and passed him. On the inside, I felt so good. “I beat him” Of course, he didn’t even know we were racing.

After I passed him, I realized I had been so focused on competing against him that I had missed my house. I had gone nearly six blocks past my house and I had to turn and go back.

Isn’t that what happens in life when we focus on competing with co-workers, neighbors, friends, family, trying to outdo them or trying to prove that we are more successful or more important?

We spend our time and energy running after them and we miss out on our own paths to our God-given destinies.

The problem with unhealthy competition is that it’s a never ending cycle. There will always be somebody ahead of you, someone with a better job, nicer car, more money in the bank, more education, a prettier wife, a more handsome husband, better behaved children, etc.

But realize that “You can be the best that you can be, when you are not competing with anyone.”

Some people are insecure because they pay too much attention to what others are, where others are going, wearing and driving.

Take what God has given you, the height, weight and personality. Dress well and wear it proudly, you’ll be blessed by it. Stay focused and live a healthy life. There is no competition in Destiny.

Run your own race and wish others well.

Good day all, please have a wonderful and restful weekend. Keep yourself safe please.

“For we DARE NOT make ourselves of the number, or COMPARE ourselves with some that COMMEND themselves: but they MEASURING themselves by themselves, and COMPARING themselves among themselves, ARE NOT WISE” 2 Corinthians 10:12.

“And we KNOW that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that he which hath BEGUN a good work in you will PERFORM it until the day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6.

“For I know the PLANS and THOUGHTS that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘PLANS for PEACE and WELL-BEING and NOT for DISASTER, to GIVE you a FUTURE and a HOPE” Jeremiah 29:11 Amplified.

To Avoid ERRORS And Being MISTAKEN

To Avoid ERRORS And Being MISTAKEN: KNOW The SCRIPTURES For YOURSELF!

There’s nothing as dangerous as living in errors, being mistaken and taken up as PREY and become VICTIM to the ENEMY and COHORTS because of ignorance, stupidity, foolishness and vulnerability. Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

There’s danger in not being properly informed in the KNOW-HOW and UNDER-STANDING of the context of a thing otherwise you exposed yourself to danger and become vulnerable to all manners of deceptions, adulteration, delusions, counterfeits, falsehoods and many such like that are out there – who are knowingly and unknowingly appearing as wolves in sheep’s clothing, like roaring lion and manifesting as angels of light when in reality are angels of darkness and others as Ministers of God while there are under the enclave of Satan and cohorts in camouflage to deceive the ignorant. Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Timothy 1:3-11; Jude 1:3-4; Matthew 7:15; 1 Peter 5:8-11; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15.

It’s very imperative, for you to come to terms with the reality of the world to God’s word, if you must avoid ERRORS and being MISTAKEN – meaning, you need to INTENTIONALLY resolved to KNOW the SCRIPTURES for YOURSELF – in order to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead with ease and comfort. That’s the place of honour and dignity and nobility as found in the Berea Believers of the Bible days of Acts 17:19-13.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

“Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a CONTROVERSY with the inhabitants of the land, because there is NO TRUTH, nor MERCY, nor KNOWLEDGE of God in the land . . . 6 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 4:1, 6.

“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 . . . “ Isaiah 5:11-16.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth NOT to be ASHAMED, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast LEARNED them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy scriptures, which are ABLE TO MAKE thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT, throughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which BELIEVED on him, If ye CONTINUE IN MY WORD, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 and ye shall KNOW the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE” John 8:31-32.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED the word with all READINESS of mind, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES DAILY, whether those things were so. 12 Therefore many of them believed; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

MY AFTERTHOUGHTS – THINKING ALOUD

MY AFTERTHOUGHTS – THINKING ALOUD: THE SPIRIT-BEING TRAINING VS THE PHYSICAL-BEING TRAINING – THE COST IN WORTH AND EFFECT!

“Then the Lord God FORMED [that is, created THE BODY of] man from the dust of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the BREATH of life; and THE MAN became a LIVING BEING [an individual complete in body and spirit]” Genesis 2:7 Amplified.

“Now may the God of peace Himself SANCTIFY you COMPLETELY; and may your WHOLE spirit, soul, and body be PRESERVED blameless at the COMING of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 NKJV.

It’s time to take stock and consider your investment – daily, weekly, monthly and yearly – on your priceless SPIRIT BEING in comparison to your PHYSICAL BEING.

MAN IS A LIVING SPIRIT BEING; and there’s the need to know and understand for sure, in essence and context, that the MAN (non-gender in terms) in the HU-MAN that makes the being is a subconscious entity, and has an entity of consciousness which is the soul being, and together lives in an entity which is the HU (HUMUS), else, is clay, sand or dust – the body – the physical being which we all see and decorate like nothing else. And these separate entities together makes the living HUMAN being.

The real you – the MAN being, is the being that’s giving you life; and it’s eternal and lives by God’s BREATH and can’t die; while the BODY is your physical being, housing your spirit being, and it depends on OXYGEN to be alive, hence it’s subject to die – that means it can decay no matter what. And when the human dies, the eternal spirit being MAN returns back to the creator God while the decayed BODY return back to the HU (humus) of the HU-MAN – (clay, sand, dust). So what makes the real being is the MAN being of the HU-MAN being, which is the spirit being in you. Genesis 2:7; Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4.

Have you intentionally consider what it does cost in TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE – and the corresponding and expected WORTH and EFFECT on PHYSICAL TRAINING/EXERCISE for your PHYSICAL well-being? You can only understand my concept and perception when you take note of the Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Millions and Billions and such like financial cost that are spent respectively by individuals and or corporations, governments and charities – just to keep the human physical body fit and to ensure a healthy physical well-being of the individual and society. And yes, in all these continuous investment in cost, the Scriptures does indicate, it ONLY PROFIT OR WORTH JUST A LITTLE IN PHYSICAL TERMS – which is relative in a way as to the whole outcome in terms of the CHARACTER and BEHAVIOURAL state of the Individuals and society at large. 1Timothy 4:7-8.

And as a challenge, could you imagine such cost in TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE as in PHYSICAL BEING training is spent in terms, on the SPIRIT BEING training by – an Individuals, and or corporations, governments and charities?. I mean the expected worth in returns in CHARACTER and BEHAVIOURAL state to Individual and society at large. Let say if and when 30 percent are invested in the TRAINING of the SPIRIT BEING MAN . . . I can assure how it will lead to the good and goodness of a COMPLETE and total WHOLENESS of the – spirit, soul and body. I can guarantee you that the consequential result will be enormous, incomprehensible and unimaginable; and it’s WORTH will have the PRESENT, FUTURE AND ETERNAL EFFECT in an individual and society at large for the good of all.

Today, take a look within you, in all your POSSESSIONS, how much of it defines your SPIRIT MAN well-being in comparison to your PHYSICAL well-being. That’s the essence of this post.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . TRAIN YOURSELF TOWARD GODLINESS (piety), [keeping yourself SPIRITUALLY FIT]. 8 For PHYSICAL TRAINING is of some value (useful for a little), but godliness (SPIRITUAL TRAINING) is USEFUL and of value in EVERYTHING and in EVERY WAY, for it HOLDS promise for the PRESENT life and also for the life which is to COME.” 1 Timothy 4:7-8 (Amplified).

“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you COMPLETELY; and may your WHOLE spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 NKJV.

“For THE WORD of God is living and active and full of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the SOUL and SPIRIT [the completeness of a person], and of both JOINTS and MARROW [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very THOUGHTS and INTENTIONS of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is CONCEALED from His sight, but all things are open and EXPOSED, and REVEALED to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13 Amplified.

“Then the Lord God FORMED [that is, created THE BODY of] man from the dust of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the BREATH of life; and THE MAN became a LIVING BEING [an individual complete in body and spirit]” Genesis 2:7 Amplified.

“But there is a spirit in MAN, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES him understanding” Job 32:8 NKJV.

“The Spirit of God has MADE me, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES me life” Job 33:4 NKJV.

“The spirit of a MAN is the LAMP of the Lord, SEARCHING all the INNER DEPTHS of his HEART” Proverbs 20:27 NKJV.

“He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of divine purpose] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified).

SPIRITUAL FAMINE

By Leave a Comment

SPIRITUAL FAMINE: ARE YOU IN DROUGHT TO THE HEARING OF THE WORD!

“Behold, the DAYS come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a FAMINE in the land, not a FAMINE of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD” Amos 8:11.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN, ERROR), not KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29.

Living in spiritual drought? It’s time to do something about it. Don’t live in SPIRITUAL DROUGHT – it will short circuit your path in DOING life and LIVING godly in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

There’s nothing as dangerous and deadly as FAMINE – be it physical or spiritual. FAMINE is the extreme – scarcity, shortage, drought, unavailability, lack, insufficiency, undersupply, deficiency, impoverishment, shortfalls and such like, of the basic necessity (ies) of life – e.g. FOOD – resulting HUNGER, which consequences are unprecedented fatalities.

“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.

“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” Isaiah 5:13-15.

In life we know how people suffer and die in horrible condition when there’s physical famine. We don’t have to look far to see the dire physical hunger and needs in our NEIGHBOURHOOD, COMMUNITIES, SOCIETY, NATION and WORLD today. Hunger as a result of FAMINE is a severe and terrible condition for any to experience. Yet, many in our WORLDS are suffering and dying daily as a result of these monster called – FAMINE.

Unfortunately today, many don’t fully know and realize that the SPIRITUAL FAMINE do exist; and there are implications of its existence in one’s life and in our society and world; and could be the DE FACTO to even the physical condition we do experience today as – INDIVIDUAL, FAMILY, SOCIETY and NATION.

A SPIRITUAL FAMINE indicates a NO SPIRITUAL FOOD or insufficient and inadequate provision especially, resulting severe hunger – leading to spiritual suffering and or death. A NO FOOD means a NO WORD, which is the FOOD of the SPIRITUAL man – the spirit being. The Man in HUMAN (Hu-Man) is a being, that is, a spirit being (subconscious place), have a soul (conscious mind, reasoning faculty, will) and live in a body (physique, physical structure).

A NO WORD for the human well-being means a NO FAITH. And a NO FAITH is consequential; for FAITH comes by the HEARING of The WORD of God – (Romans 10:17, which means with NO WORD, then NO FAITH, and with NO FAITH – none can PLEASE God – (Hebrews 11:6). To live a life wherein God is not PLEASE with you or rather you can’t PLEASE God has consequences – (Romans 14:23). And such consequences could be dire and results to fatalities just as physical hunger does – (Amos 8:11-14; Genesis 41-47).

One of such consequence is to have no MEANINGFUL nourishment and fulfilment in LIFE and GODLY LIVING with God as a result of NO FELLOWSHIP to enhance one’s RELATIONSHIP with GOD. It takes FAITH to FELLOWSHIP with God. For we are CALLED to FELLOWSHIP with God in order to ENHANCE our RELATIONSHIP with Him, for therein is the PATH of LIFE – (1 Corinthians 1:9/Psalms 16:11; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:11).

When one is IMPOVERISHED and MALNOURISHED within one’s being, there’s no amount of WEALTH and PHYSICAL POSSESSION that can FULLFIL such emptiness within – (Luke 12:15). And there’s no scientific or medical acts as SCAN, XRAY, STETHOSCOPE, CHEMOTHERAPY and such likes that can and will be able to detect the essence of the human spirit that makes man a being. For God have put in a default of ETERNITY in the human spirit with which in His infinite nature only Him can sense every being. (Ecclesiastes 3:11 Amplified; Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4).

Therefore, SPIRITUAL FAMINE as to the PHYSICAL FAMINE have consequences. And with RESOLVED for an ANSWER to SPIRITUAL FAMINE, the PHYSICAL FAMINE can be RESOLVED effortless in grace – (2 Chronicles 7:12-15). For GOD will ensure that FAMINE of ALL SORTS are RESOLVED for the good of all – (Psalms 33:18-20; Psalms 37:18-19; Genesis 26:1-14; Psalms 105:16-24/Genesis 41-47.

It’s time to RESOLVED to give yourself to FEED HEALTHILY on the WORD of God; and firstly, on PERSONAL level and from other platforms in ONLINE opportunities, in order to avoid FAMINE. More so, to triumphantly thrive and be meaningfully fulfilled over any form of FAMINE that may tends to affect you in LIFE, GRACE and GODLY LIVING – (Job 23:12; 2 Timothy 2:15; 2 Timothy 3:14-17; Matthew 22:29; Jeremiah 15:16; Psalms 1:1-3).

Don’t live in SPIRITUAL DROUGHT – it will short circuit your PATH IN LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

THE SPIRITUAL IMPACT OF THE FAMINE OF HEARING THE WORD IS ENORMOUS AND INDESCRIBABLE. Therefore, with many facing ENORMOUS life challenges and circumstances, which are as a result of THE FAMINE OF THE HEARING OF THE WORD, there is the need to be built up in FAITH; and the needs to kick-start your own avenue on personal level is now to – THE HEARING OF THE WORD in order to STEADFASTLY RESIST IN THE FAITH, the FEAR of the monster that has befallen or intending, long before it gets to your vicinity – (Amos 8:11-14).

It’s time to feed HEALTHILY your spirit and well-being with the living WORD in order to STEADFASTLY RESIST IN FAITH, the fear of the monster that has gripped and crippled the world health and economy to a standstill and downwards curve for a while now – (1 Peter 5:8-11). And when you feed healthily our God of all wisdom, speed and love will make you perfect (complete, whole, full), establish, strengthen, and settled in life and grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Behold, the DAYS come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a FAMINE in the land, not a FAMINE of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD: 12 and they shall WANDER from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall RUN to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it. 13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men FAINT FOR THIRST. 14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-sheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again” Amos 8:11-14.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“Neither have I gone back from the COMMANDMENT of his lips; I have ESTEEMED THE WORDS OF HIS MOUTH more than my NECESSARY FOOD” Job 23:12.

“Wherewithal shall a young man CLEANSE his way? by TAKING HEED thereto ACCORDING to THY WORD . . . 105 Thy Word is a LAMP unto my FEET, and a LIGHT unto my PATH . . .130 The ENTRANCE of THY WORDS giveth LIGHT; it giveth UNDERSTANDING unto the SIMPLE” Psalms 119:9, 105, 130.

“STUDY TO SHEW THYSELF APPROVED unto God, a WORKMAN that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING (APPLYING) the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15 Emphasis Mine.

Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11.

“But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT (COMPLETE, WHOLE), throughly furnished unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“Thy WORDS WERE FOUND, and I did EAT them; and thy WORD was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts” Jeremiah 15:16.

HOLDING UNTO THE MYSTERY OF THE FAITH

HOLDING UNTO THE MYSTERY OF THE FAITH: AS AN UNPARALLELED ARMY – GOD’S BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR!

“Thou art my BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR: for with thee will I BREAK (SHATTER ) in pieces the nations, and with thee will I DESTROY kingdoms; 21 and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the chariot and his rider; 22 with thee also will I BREAK in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces old and young; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the young man and the maid; 23 I will also BREAK in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces captains and rulers” Jeremiah 51:20-23 Emphasis Mine.

The UNPARALLELED ARMY- the Church of God needs to firstly come to the point to fully acknowledge and understand the essence of embracing the SCRIPTURAL truth and vitality that – YOU ARE – GOD’S BATTLE AXE and WEAPONS OF WAR! Thus indicating you are not just enrolled in the army by virtue of being born of God, but you are the army the vessel weapon in use to transmit the weaponry to win and TRIUMPH in every way of God’s cause on earth in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And this you do, by HOLDING onto the mystery of the Faith in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

FAITH is our life connection and currency of demands and supply on the heavenly for our earthly affairs. FAITH is NOW – Present tense and its active not passive unlike BELIEVE which is passive. Faith is the only spiritual legal and tender mystery to do Kingdom business exchange with God. It pleases God. And FAITH is about ACTING accordingly and correspondingly on what your BELIEVE on, and of, God’s WORD in context, without a doubtful thoughts. Mark 11:20-24. Hebrews 11:1-40. Faith is not MYSTERIOUS or MYSTICAL as some may THINK. It’s not a CREED, DOCTRINE or RELIGION or SECTARIAN or DENOMINATIONAL. Faith is the heavenly currency that operates in divine mystery that can’t be adulterated and counterfeited as other legal and vital tenders in use in the world. Faith is spiritual and life streaming 24/7 to meet all human affairs with the heavenly supply unhindered.

And there’s the need for you to hold earnestly and steadfastly unto the Faith that brings about the victory if one must succeed and excel and triumph with God in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory in life and grace. Faith is not just the spiritual legal and vital tender to do the heavenly business for our earthly affairs, but the mystery of grace that can and will always paralyse every operation of the ENEMY and COHORTS against the Believer’s FAITH in Christ Jesus in God. And as such, there’s the need to be alert, vigilant and sensitive in the Spirit to exercise a pure heart and of a good conscience to safeguard the FAITH from the mode of operandi of the enemy and cohorts operations, especially toward you as the UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence toward God, and toward men” Acts 24:16.

“Now the END of the commandment is CHARITY (LOVE) out of a PURE heart, and of a GOOD CONSCIENCE, and of FAITH UNFEIGNED” 1 Timothy 1:5 Emphasis Mine.

“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 ON THESE THINGS” Philippians 4:8.

There is and there are – LIFE BATTLES, knowingly or unknowingly. And these Life BATTLES are real to ALL and it’s irrespective to any – and it’s not about if and when. And OVERCOMING and TRIUMPHING is ASSURED as we do life by holding steadily steady on the mystery of FAITH. That’s what the enemy and cohorts can’t figure out how by faith victory is certainly certain over the world systems, when and while in the dealing with an INFORMED unparalleled army – the you, the local and universal body of Christ Jesus.

“For everyone born of God is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world; and this is the VICTORY that has CONQUERED and OVERCOME the world—our [continuing, persistent] FAITH [in Jesus the Son of God]. 5 Who is the one who is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world? It is the one who BELIEVES and RECOGNIZES the fact that is the Son of God” 1 John 5:4-5 Amplified.

And the greatest of ALL life battles, is the BATTLE of your FAITH in Christ Jesus. And there’s an ENEMY and COHORTS out there 24/7 that’s fighting daily, going to and fro, roaring aggressively and looking for any avenue and opportunity to devour you of your FAITH in Christ. For the ENEMY and COHORTS knows that if it can get hold of your FAITH, EVERYTHING about you will be DEVOURED. Your FAITH is the VICTORY and TRIUMPH that overcomes the WORLD’S set up SYSTEM, which is run and control by the ENEMY and COHORTS against your well-being in Christ Jesus.

“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be ALERT and CAUTIOUS at ALL TIMES. That ENEMY of yours, the DEVIL, PROWLS around like a ROARING lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. 9 But RESIST him, be FIRM in your FAITH [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.] 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favour], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]” 1 Peter 5:8-10 (Amplified).

Hence when the ENEMY and COHORTS roar, or makes attacks on you in its acts of operandi, you need to know and understand that its actual PRIMARY aim and objective are not after your – Money, Family, Career, Relationship, Business, Ministry and such like. Its PRIMARY intent is that you GIVE UP and QUIT on your FAITH, for your FAITH is the ONLY divinely instilled mechanism that OVERCOMES and ENACT your REDEMPTION in humanity to live and do life.

“FIGHT the GOOD FIGHT of FAITH, lay HOLD on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast PROFESSED a good PROFESSION before many witnesses” 1Timothy 6:12.

We are enjoined therefore, to stand up tall by HOLDING on the mystery of our FAITH, in order to FIGHT the GOOD FIGHT of FAITH in any life BATTLES. There is no room for fainting and giving up so easily in any phase and sphere because the victory is ASSURED to come.

“If thou hast RUN with the FOOTMEN, and they have WEARIED thee, then how canst thou CONTEND with HORSES? and if in the land of PEACE, wherein thou TRUSTEDST, they WEARIED thee, then how wilt thou DO in the SWELLING of Jordan?” Jeremiah 12:5.

Therefore, BUILD UP your most Holy FAITH, as a way of PREPAREDNESS to life daily BATTLES in order to SOAR IN DOMINION through life and the years of living that our God will make possible for you in Christ Jesus stead. For a NO FAITH means a NO PLEASING of God, for the just must live in the holding up on the mystery of the Faith to win and triumph. Hence PREPAREDNESS is imperative and non-negotiable.

“The horse is PREPARED against the day of battle: but SAFETY is of the LORD” Proverbs 21:31.

For your FAITH is the MYSTERY for your VICTORY, TRIUMPH, SUCCESS, DOMINION, THRIVING and ACHIEVING; and to OVERCOME and to live the life of A MORE THAN CONQUEROR status – in LIFE and GRACE, in Christ Jesus stead – and you need to hold to the FAITH MYSTERY in a PURE CONSCIENCE thereby making it in all possible. Your FAITH is a one lane two way street – Your Today and your Tomorrow – TREASURE IT. And Hold unto it in a PURE CONSCIENCE as an UNPARALLELED ARMY. Your FAITH is the MYSTERY for your VICTORY in life and godliness – HOLD UNTO IT WITH A PURE CONSCIENCE.

PRAYING FOR YOU

PRAYING FOR YOU: FOR AN EFFECTUAL FAITH COMMUNICATION!

“A man’s belly shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH; and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in THE POWER OF THE TONGUE: and they that LOVE it shall EAT the FRUIT thereof” Proverbs 18:20-21.

To be EFFECTUAL is to be successful in accomplishing – producing or being capable of producing – a desired or intended result. It thus means that an EFFECTUAL FAITH COMMUNICATION is utmost important to your thriving, flourishing and fulfilment if you must experience a MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL and FULFILLING living as a Believer in Christ Jesus stead. Recall that our Saviour and Lord, in His humanity was communicating graciousness against all odds to silence the religion and sectarianism of His days and to indicate how to communicate on earthly affairs with heavenly by the mystery of FAITH.

“And ALL BARE Him (Jesus) WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED OUT OF HIS MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

And to COMMUNICATE is to – speak, say, talk, declare, announce – forth to life MATTERS – challenges and situations, by your FAITH on the WORD of God, in Christ Jesus stead, in order to get an EFFECTUAL results. For FAITH is to act correspondingly on what you BELIEVE of the WORD of God accordingly in context. FAITH is active while to believe is passive. And to BELIEVE is to be pregnant with the WORD which by exercising FAITH, content in context have to deliver unhindered.

“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.

That matter and or the matter of life that appears as MOUNTAIN, VALLEY, CROOKED ROAD and ROUGH PLACE – are classed as long standing obstacles, to your path to an effectual and a successful well-being. And for your meaningful triumph and victory, it needs a FAITH COMMUNICATION to ensure you have an EFFECTUAL – productive and results oriented – atmosphere in your PURPOSEFUL walk of faith in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For verily I SAY unto you, That WHOSOEVER shall SAY unto THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have WHATSOEVER he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:23-24.

And to COMMUNICATE to your life MATTERS – challenges and situations, is the only means for an EFFECTUAL (PRODUCTIVE) results that’s free of sorrow, stress and sweat, in matters of doing life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. All this is simply because the VICTORY and TRIUMPH has been DONE – meaning A DONE DEED – in Christ Jesus, and ours is to live daily in affirmative to ENACT and AUTHENTIC it by TESTIFYING to it through the ACKNOWLEDGING (ACKNOWLEDGEMENT) of the good done in us by God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“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.

It’s upon this KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING I thereby pray for you today in this SCRIPTURAL context above as Apostle Paul did pray for Philemon to come to the knowledge and understanding of having an EFFECTUAL results in all live dealings in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. That’s how to have the Abraham BELIEVE and FAITH to turn around the natural law on the womb of Sarah to give birth again after time is past to do so – in calling by – saying, declaring, announcing, proclaiming – those THINGS that be not as though there were..

“We having the SAME spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore SPEAK” 2 Corinthians 4:13.

“(as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he BELIEVED, even God, who quickeneth the dead, AND CALLETH THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE” Romans 4:17.

FURTHER SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare 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 brought low; The CROOKED PLACES shall be made straight And the ROUGH PLACES smooth; 5 The glory of the Lord shall be revealed, And all flesh shall see it together; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken” Isaiah 40:3-5.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 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 5:3-5.

“And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry: 13 and seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find anything thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Jesus answered and SAID unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter forever. And his disciples heard it . . . 20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter calling to remembrance SAITH unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And Jesus answering SAITH unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I SAY unto you, That WHOSOEVER shall SAY unto THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have WHATSOEVER he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:12-14, 20-24.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is MADE unto SALVATION. 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 10:8-13.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Romans 1:16-17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 14:23).

“Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17 (as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, AND CALLETH THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE. 18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness . . .” Romans 4:16-25.

THE SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING

By Leave a Comment

THE SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING: A KEY TO ENACT AND AUTHENTICATE YOU IN LIVING AND DOING LIFE WISELY!

A WISE MAN IS STRONG; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength” Proverbs 24:5.

It’s true that a man of KNOWLEDGE is a man of strength; but a man of UNDERSTANDING is a man of wisdom – both to live and do life wisely – anywhere, any day and any time.

“WISDOM IS THE PRINCIPAL THING; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding” (Proverbs 4:7).

I hereby employ you expediently, to pray in line as in Ephesians 1:15-23 for the Spirit of understandable knowledge in the revelation spirit of wisdom and understanding – in order to live and do life wisely. For wisdom – the consequence of knowledge and understanding gives life and makes one to shine and radiate in glory.

“Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a MAN’S WISDOM MAKETH HIS FACE TO SHINE, and the boldness of his face shall be changed” Ecclesiastes 8:1.

Understanding emancipates and gives complete Freedom in all about life. For until you UNDERSTAND what you claim to KNOW, you are as good as the IGNORANT – UNINFORMED, UNPRODUCTIVE and ILL-EQUIPPED.

A mere PASSION (zeal) and KNOWLEDGE take one to nowhere until there’s an UNDERSTANDING of the knowledgeable passion (zeal).

Seek for UNDERSTANDING today in the light of the Scriptures, for God will open the eyes of your understanding and give you the enlightenment and illumination in LIFE and GRACE to ensure God’s BLESSEDNESS within you in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Therefore, I pray that the eyes of your understanding might be enlightened and illuminated, in LIFE and GRACE, to ensure the needed WISDOM that will give you the leverage and stability in your destined – PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. Amen!

Herein is the PRAYERLINE of – Ephesians 1:15-23 to appropriate for yourself accordingly:

“Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, 16 do not cease 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 to you the spirit of WISDOM and REVELATION in the KNOWLEDGE of Him, 18 the eyes of your UNDERSTANDING being enlightened; that you may KNOW what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. 22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all” Ephesians 1:15-23 NKJV.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“A WISE MAN IS STRONG; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength” Proverbs 24:5

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVES FAVOUR: but the way of transgressors (ignorance) is hard (difficult, rough)’’ Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis mine).

“The man that WANDERS OUT OF THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the congregation of the dead (unproductive, ignorant and unwise people)” (Proverbs 21:6 (Emphasis mine).

“WISDOM IS THE PRINCIPAL THING; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding” (Proverbs 4:7).

“Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a MAN’S WISDOM MAKETH HIS FACE TO SHINE, and the boldness of his face shall be changed” Ecclesiastes 8:1.

HOLDING UNTO THE MYSTERY OF THE FAITH

HOLDING UNTO THE MYSTERY OF THE FAITH: AS AN UNPARALLELED ARMY – GOD’S BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR!

“Thou art my BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR: for with thee will I BREAK (SHATTER ) in pieces the nations, and with thee will I DESTROY kingdoms; 21 and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the chariot and his rider; 22 with thee also will I BREAK in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces old and young; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the young man and the maid; 23 I will also BREAK in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I BREAK in pieces captains and rulers” Jeremiah 51:20-23 Emphasis Mine.

The UNPARALLELED ARMY- the Church of God needs to firstly come to the point to fully acknowledge and understand the essence of embracing the SCRIPTURAL truth and vitality that – YOU ARE – GOD’S BATTLE AXE and WEAPONS OF WAR! Thus indicating you are not just enrolled in the army by virtue of being born of God, but you are the army the vessel weapon in use to transmit the weaponry to win and TRIUMPH in every way of God’s cause on earth in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And this you do, by HOLDING onto the mystery of the Faith in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

FAITH is our life connection and currency of demands and supply on the heavenly for our earthly affairs. FAITH is NOW – Present tense and its active not passive unlike BELIEVE which is passive. Faith is the only spiritual legal and tender mystery to do Kingdom business exchange with God. It pleases God. And FAITH is about ACTING accordingly and correspondingly on what your BELIEVE on, and of, God’s WORD in context, without a doubtful thought. Mark 11:20-24. Hebrews 11:1-40. Faith is not MYSTERIOUS or MYSTICAL as some may THINK. It’s not a CREED, DOCTRINE or RELIGION or SECTARIAN or DENOMINATIONAL. Faith is the heavenly currency that operates in divine mystery that can’t be adulterated and counterfeited as other legal and vital tenders in use in the world. Faith is spiritual and life streaming 24/7 to meet all human affairs with the heavenly supply unhindered.

And there’s the need for you to hold earnestly and steadfastly unto the Faith that brings about the victory if one must succeed and excel and triumph with God in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory in life and grace. Faith is not just the spiritual legal and vital tender to do the heavenly business for our earthly affairs, but the mystery of grace that can and will always paralyze every operation of the ENEMY and COHORTS against the Believer’s FAITH in Christ Jesus in God. And as such, there’s the need to be alert, vigilant and sensitive in the Spirit to exercise a pure heart and of a good conscience to safeguard the FAITH from the mode of operandi of the enemy and cohorts operations, especially toward you as the UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence toward God, and toward men” Acts 24:16.

“Now the END of the commandment is CHARITY (LOVE) out of a PURE heart, and of a GOOD CONSCIENCE, and of FAITH UNFEIGNED” 1 Timothy 1:5 Emphasis Mine.

“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 ON THESE THINGS” Philippians 4:8.

There is and there are – LIFE BATTLES, knowingly or unknowingly. And these Life BATTLES are real to ALL and it’s irrespective to any – and it’s not about if and when. And OVERCOMING and TRIUMPHING is ASSURED as we do life by holding steadily steady on the mystery of FAITH. That’s what the enemy and cohorts can’t figure out how by faith victory is certainly certain over the world systems, when and while in the dealing with an INFORMED unparalleled army – the you, the local and universal body of Christ Jesus.

“For everyone born of God is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world; and this is the VICTORY that has CONQUERED and OVERCOME the world—our [continuing, persistent] FAITH [in Jesus the Son of God]. 5 Who is the one who is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world? It is the one who BELIEVES and RECOGNIZES the fact that is the Son of God” 1 John 5:4-5 Amplified.

And the greatest of ALL life battles, is the BATTLE of your FAITH in Christ Jesus. And there’s an ENEMY and COHORTS out there 24/7 that’s fighting daily, going to and fro, roaring aggressively and looking for any avenue and opportunity to devour you of your FAITH in Christ. For the ENEMY and COHORTS knows that if it can get hold of your FAITH, EVERYTHING about you will be DEVOURED. Your FAITH is the VICTORY and TRIUMPH that overcomes the WORLD’S set up SYSTEM, which is run and control by the ENEMY and COHORTS against your well-being in Christ Jesus.

“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be ALERT and CAUTIOUS at ALL TIMES. That ENEMY of yours, the DEVIL, PROWLS around like a ROARING lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. 9 But RESIST him, be FIRM in your FAITH [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.] 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favour], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]” 1 Peter 5:8-10 (Amplified).

Hence when the ENEMY and COHORTS roar, or makes attacks on you in its acts of operandi, you need to know and understand that its actual PRIMARY aim and objective are not after your – Money, Family, Career, Relationship, Business, Ministry and such like. Its PRIMARY intent is that you GIVE UP and QUIT on your FAITH, for your FAITH is the ONLY divinely instilled mechanism that OVERCOMES and ENACT your REDEMPTION in humanity to live and do life.

“FIGHT the GOOD FIGHT of FAITH, lay HOLD on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast PROFESSED a good PROFESSION before many witnesses” 1 Timothy 6:12.

We are enjoined therefore, to stand up tall by HOLDING on the mystery of our FAITH, in order to FIGHT the GOOD FIGHT of FAITH in any life BATTLES. There is no room for fainting and giving up so easily in any phase and sphere because the victory is ASSURED to come.

“If thou hast RUN with the FOOTMEN, and they have WEARIED thee, then how canst thou CONTEND with HORSES? and if in the land of PEACE, wherein thou TRUSTEDST, they WEARIED thee, then how wilt thou DO in the SWELLING of Jordan?” Jeremiah 12:5.

Therefore, BUILD UP your most Holy FAITH, as a way of PREPAREDNESS to life daily BATTLES in order to SOAR IN DOMINION through life and the years of living that our God will make possible for you in Christ Jesus stead. For a NO FAITH means a NO PLEASING of God, for the just must live in the holding up on the mystery of the Faith to win and triumph. Hence PREPAREDNESS is imperative and non-negotiable.

“The horse is PREPARED against the day of battle: but SAFETY is of the LORD” Proverbs 21:31.

For your FAITH is the MYSTERY for your VICTORY, TRIUMPH, SUCCESS, DOMINION, THRIVING and ACHIEVING; and to OVERCOME and to live the life of A MORE THAN CONQUEROR status – in LIFE and GRACE, in Christ Jesus stead – and you need to hold to the FAITH MYSTERY in a PURE CONSCIENCE thereby making it in all possible. Your FAITH is a one lane two way street – Your Today and your Tomorrow – TREASURE IT. And Hold unto it in a PURE CONSCIENCE as an UNPARALLELED ARMY. Your FAITH is the MYSTERY for your VICTORY in life and godliness – HOLD UNTO IT WITH A PURE CONSCIENCE.

BOUNDLESS IN GOD’S LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS: THAT’S THE CHURCH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD BY THE HOLY SPIRIT!
“. . . 5 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 5:1-21.
THE CHURCH THAT CHRIST JESUS DIED TO RAISE AS HIS OWN AND HE’S COMING BACK TO TAKE AS HIS OWN IS THE CHURCH THAT’S BOUNDLESS IN HIS LOVE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT GIVEN TO US.
This Church that I know, that Christ DIED to RAISE as His own and He’s coming back to TAKE as His own, it’s the Church – WITHOUT WALLS and BOUNDLESS IN HIS LOVE and shared lavishly and abroad in our hearts – spirit being, by the Holy Spirit that’s given to us in Him. And it’s embodiment entails ONENESS in all things besides the constituent and diverse members. It’s the Church were greed and selfishness have no place; it’s the Church where segregation by race, color, class, status and tongue have no place; and ALL are welcome, beautified and celebrated. It’s the Church without self-centeredness and are mirrored in the ONENESS of the *WE* and not the *I* and *THEM*.
The ONENESS is unique in the BLESSEDNESS and have MADE us as:
** One Body
** One Faith
** One Lord
** One God
** One people
** One Nation
** One Body
** One Hope
** One Love
** One Calling
** One Baptism
** One REDEMPTION For ALL
** One Spirit
** One Christ
** One Father
** Father God Above All
** Father God Through All
** And Father God In All
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“There is ONE body, and ONE Spirit, even as ye are called in ONE hope of your calling; 5 ONE Lord, ONE faith, ONE baptism, 6 ONE God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all” Ephesians 4:4-6.
“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.
“For as the body is ONE, and hath many MEMBERS, and all the MEMBERS of that ONE body, being many, are ONE body: so also is Christ. 13 For by ONE Spirit are we all baptized into ONE body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into ONE Spirit. 14 For the body is not one member, but many. 15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? 18 But now hath God set the MEMBERS every ONE of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. 19 And if they were all one member, where were the body? 20 But now are they MANY MEMBERS, yet but ONE body. 21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. 22 Nay, much more those MEMBERS of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: 23 and those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. 24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: 25 that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care ONE for another. 26 And whether ONE member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or ONE member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. 27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and MEMBERS in particular” 1 Corinthians 12:12-27.
“Therefore become IMITATORS of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father]; 2 and WALK CONTINUALLY IN LOVE [that is, value one another—practice empathy and compassion, unselfishly seeking the best for others], just as Christ also LOVED you and GAVE Himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God [slain for you, so that it became] a sweet fragrance” Ephesians 5:1-2 (Amplified).
