IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS: YOU ARE PREDESTINED TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

You’ve been PREDESTINATED in Christ Jesus, to succeed in life and grace. For to be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED purposefully and meaningfully with God’s enabling grace in order for you to SUCCEED, THRIVE, COLOUR, ACHIEVE, BECOME, INNOVATE, EXPLORE, CREATE, INITIATE and such like, in all about doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

I remembered hearing and reading this phrase below years ago that helps to inspire my scriptural search and thinking of Ecclesiastes 3:11, leading to my self-discovery and recovery as summed up in this wisdom nugget by DR Myles MUNROE of Blessed Memory:

“The Creator HID your future where He knew you could not miss it . . . INSIDE you. Don’t go to your DESTINY . . . BECOME it” – DR Myles MUNROE (BFMI) of Blessed Memory.

“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).

Stop looking and pursuing for your DESTINY – For your DESTINY is in YOU and you are your DESTINY. You BECOME what you make of yourself. Stop holding others RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for your well-being. Rise up, look within and become the you in you.

You have to give meaning to your inner being quest and voice. The quest and voice within you could be the most sort out Carpenter, Plumber, Teacher, Educator, Carer, Leader, Administrator, Minister, Medical, Politician, Event Organizer, Baker, Farmer, Painter, Engineer, Technologist, Social worker, Designer, Decorator, Salesperson and such like that your Community and your World are craving to have to sort their human needs.

Know for such there’s an unction within you to function and though your beginning may be little – small, your later end could be the answer to the quest and needs of all humans, when you give it a start – 1 John 2:20, 27; Job 8:7; Zachariah 4:10. Your Family, Community, Nation and World are all waiting for your revealing – the manifestation of the you that’s within you – Romans 8:19.

You have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME – Stop running about for a SPECIAL DESTINY PRAYERS.

YOU DON’T NEED TO FAKE IT TO BECOME IT. JUST BE WHO YOU ARE MADE TO BE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

“The Creator hid your future where He knew you could not miss it . . . INSIDE you. Don’t go to your destiny . . . BECOME it” – DR Myles MUNROE (BFMI) of Blessed Memory.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“He has MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN ITS TIME. Also He has put ETERNITY (PURPOSE/DESTINY) in their HEARTS (HUMAN SPIRIT), except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (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 has MADE me, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES me life [which inspires me]” Job 33:4 (Amplified).

“The SPIRIT (conscience) of man is the LAMP of the Lord, SEARCHING and EXAMINING all the INNERMOST parts of his being” Proverbs 20:27 (Amplified).

“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: 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath MADE us ACCEPTED in the beloved . . . 11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ” Ephesians 1:3-6, 11-12.

“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.

“For all the PROMISES of God IN HIM ARE YEA, and IN HIM AMEN, unto the glory of God by us. 21 Now he which STABLISHETH US with you in Christ, and hath ANOINTED US, is God; 22 who hath also SEALED US, and GIVEN THE EARNEST OF THE SPIRIT IN OUR HEARTS” 2 Corinthians 1:20-22.

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

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE MEANINGFULLY FULFILLED

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE MEANINGFULLY FULFILLED: AND IT’S BY THE PRINCIPLE OF THE WORD AND NOT BY METHODS!

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY), not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).

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

There’s an awaiting daily TRIUMPH, VICTORY, OVERCOMING and being A MORE THAN CONQUERORS for you in God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. However, in life we are face daily by THE POWER OF CHOICE . . . and that’s to BECOME by THE WORD of God. For God’s WORD is IRREVOCABLE in all His promises . . . Hence, to BECOME in that desired yearnings of your heart by the enabling POWER of CHOICE in IGNORANCE of THE WORD of God, is DEADLY, FRUSTRATING, UNPRODUCTIVE , DIFFICULT and DESTRUCTIVE. Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE and THINK.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worse than cancerous disease of any sorts. Acts 17:30-31. It breeds stupidity and foolishness and arrogance. For by IGNORANCE, many talents, vision, dreams, aspirations and such like, that are needed to enhance life and godly living, has ended up in the graveyards UNFULFILLED. And those by chance to amanced anything by ignorance, have ended up in a deadly place as it’s written –

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (IGNORANCE, FOOLISHNESS, STUPIDITY, UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 21:16 Emphasis Mine.

In life as a child of God, you can only RECOVER and enter your place of greatness and fulfilment when you DISCOVER the PRINCIPLE of the WORKING of THE WORD of God. This is profound when one take the light from Habakkuk 2:2 which states:

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it”.

The scriptures did not say “He that RUNS or RUNNETH may READ’ but rather that “He MAY RUN that READS or READETH”. Meaning NO READING, NO RUNNING no matter the prevailing circumstances about you. The principle there, is this, that you have to READ in order to acquire the required KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the VISIONED CONCEPT for an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory direction, that is to say, to obtain the clarity to enable you WALK in WISDOM before running with that life vision of Business, Career, Ministry, Governance, Marriage (Marital-Relationships), Friendship-Relationship and such like the more.

If otherwise you RUN before you READ to know and understand the road map of your ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, then failures awaits, just as many have fallen and become victims of their own creations. It’s because of their RUNNING by a mere zeal or passion without READING to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the fulness at hand of their VISIONED CONCEPT. Simply know for the truth that a good understanding breeds Favour, productivity, efficiency, effortlessness and calmness as it’s written:

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS (IGNORANCE) is HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE, STRESSFUL)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine).

Today, make amends, RE-EVALUATE your vision by READING again before RUNNING.

THE POWER OF CHOICE – To BECOME By The WORD Is BLESSEDNESS . . . And To BECOME By IGNORANCE Is DEADLY.

Have a graceful and blessed day.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK

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

AVOID BEING MISTAKEN

AVOID BEING MISTAKEN: READ TO KNOW THE SCRIPTURES TO AVOID BEING MISTAKEN AND BE FOUND IN AN ERRONEOUS CAPTIVITY!

“Till I come, GIVE ATTENDANCE TO READING, to exhortation, to doctrine” 1Timothy 4:13.

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

You are mistaken, walking in error and powerless because you simply RUN before you READ; hence READ first if you must RUN to achieve, succeed, triumph and such like more, in that purposeful visioned concept for meaningful result. For READING keeps you INFORMED. And INFORMED people makes INFORMED DECISIONS and not in a mere guesses or guessing decisions. And INFORMED DECISIONS makes INFORMED LIVING in LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

READ BEFORE YOU RUN – DON’T PUT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE.

Don’t blame others for your poor prescription order in the principle of doing life in Christ Jesus stead.

YOU ARE EITHER RESPONDING OR REACTING – KNOWLEDGE WILL MAKE ONE RESPOND TO LIFE MATTERS BY THE WORD WHILE IGNORANCE MAKES ONE REACT TO LIFE MATTERS BECAUSE THERE’S NO WORD.

And a NO WORD means a NO FAITH. For FAITH comes by the WORD – Romans 10:17. And by FAITH we do life with God to overcome in humanity. 1 John 5:4-5; Habakkuk 2:4 (Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:17). And by not doing life by FAITH is Sin – Romans 14:23. And without doing life by FAITH it’s possible to PLEASE God – Hebrews 11:1-3, 6. Thus, it indicates why the knowledge and understanding of the WORD in every context application for WISDOM to be ascertain is imperative for you to succeed with God.

A MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER

A MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER: THE UNPARALLELED ARMY – The CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead!

“Thou therefore, my son, be STRONG in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same COMMIT thou to FAITHFUL men, who shall be able to TEACH others also. 3 Thou therefore endure hardness, AS A GOOD SOLDIER of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that WARRETH entangleth himself with the AFFAIRS of this life; that he may PLEASE him who hath CHOSEN him to be a SOLDIER. 5 And if a man also STRIVE FOR MASTERIES, yet is he NOT CROWNED, except he STRIVE LAWFULLY” 2 Timothy 2:1-5

The Church of God as UNPARALLELED ARMY is a Militant-like Soldier who is daily at WAR in every aspect of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. The Church of Christ is engaged constantly and continuously in spiritual WARFARE. And everyone born of God’s nature in Christ Jesus, needs to know it and be readily ready to get engaged whenever and wherever in this spiritual battle that has physical effect in our world with resultant challenges to life’s, families, communities, nations and more.

AND YOU ARE THE CHURCH THAT’S GLORIOUS, MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER AND TRIUMPHANT IN NATURE IN CHRIST JESUS TO WIN AND TRIUMPH DAILY AS SET AND ASSURED

The Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, though engage in constant militant spiritual warfare, is also a triumphant Church. Each warfare and battle defines, refines, refreshes, energizes, rejuvenates, refires and renews the Church; hence the Church is GLORIOUS in all, because its beauty is awesome despite satanic and cohorts efforts to fake, duplicate, pervert and counterfeit this glorious attributes.

Therefore, get engaged and don’t watch from the sidelines or grandstand else you become a victim and prey rather than a victor. You are a winner any day and anyway in everywhere as long as you know and understand that you are equipped as being born of God and filled with His Spirit to get engaged with this battles within and without. Ephesians 6:10-20.

The militant-like soldier – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, is at WAR with the FLESH within; and without, at WAR with the enemy and cohorts that’s against our FAITH in Christ Jesus; at WAR with spiritual forces and principalities and powers in heavenly and earthly places of doing life; at WAR with man-made religious dogmas and denominational entanglement and doctrinal sectarian bonds and traditional bye-laws and creeds in the name of God and at war with many such like as may be identified by the Holy Spirit in the WORD of God as He leads the Church – you, local and universal.

And this WAR and WARFARE is about our FAITH in our Lord Jesus Christ. Hence Apostle Paul says we should FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, indicating some fights are uncalled-for, not good fights, not fight worth engaging on and we should be aliens to them by every means. Suffice to know that the ENEMY and COHORTS are not necessarily after your physical possession and well being in their engagement of WAR and WARFARE against you. They are actually using the things you consider there are after as a distraction from the real deal. Their main target is your FAITH. To make you GIVE UP on your FAITH in God in Christ Jesus. Knowing that, as long as you steadfastness in God in Christ Jesus is steadily steady, you can ALWAYS recover all losses by the winning faith as Job deed. For Job recovered the MORE by taking the stand that the Redeemer lives in spite of all he went through with Satan and cohorts friends and wife against his stand in God – Job 19:25; Job 42:10-17.

“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

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT (SMARTLY SENSITIVE, ALERT); because your ADVERSARY THE DEVIL, AS A ROARING LION, WALKETH ABOUT, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same AFFLICTIONS are accomplished in your BRETHREN that are in THE WORLD. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE YOU. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11;

And because we ARE at war and warfare, it takes a spirited Militant-Like Soldier stand to win and triumph daily and always as Apostle Paul admonished Timothy in the Holy writ of 2 Timothy 2:1-5. And to be a Soldier of Christ under the heavenly, wherein our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ is the captain of the host of God’s unparalleled army on earth with the angelic assisted army is a promise of full assurance of victory, triumph, overcoming and such like. Joshua 5:13-15. And this rare privilege to be a Militant-like Soldier is made possible by the grace of God and that gives us in earthly sphere the right to be His ambassadorial and representative in Christ Jesus stead – 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. And as such, there’s no room for errors and perversions in our walk in His stead. We need to war lawfully and obediently otherwise we will be court-martial and be declared upon with a “PERSONA NON GRATA” statesque for woefully defiling and disobeying orders as expected. 2 Timothy 1:1-5; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

Herein are some lessons to keep in minds as the UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, in order to avoid the setbacks, set ups and create a safety and security net that’s WORTH doing to win in life and grace.

What is a Church? A Church is the you (an individual), the local and the universal body of born again (of God) Believer’s on the WORD of God in Christ Jesus, filled with and led by the Holy Spirit, having (under) a Shepherd.

The reason while this definition is important in the context of the scriptures is because there are many loose and loosely individual’s and locals Believer’s out there who belongs to no Shepherd or rather not under any Shepherd for reckoning – Hebrews 13:16-17. Such Believer’s are vulnerable or position in a vulnerability states knowingly and or unknowingly – which is a state of ignorance, fooolishness and arrogance and stupidity due to some zealousness without knowledge and understanding in context and perception.

For a while, my younger children have been watching a Netflix documentary program called OUR PLANET. In the course of them watching the program for the few occasions of sitting down around with the children, I was curious about how the Cat family – especially the Lion and Leopard can easily target up their prey in order to feed and make a meal off them. Most of the time, I discovered they are always looking out to target a stand-alone prey from the herds. And once identified, in their chase they can corner out that vulnerable stand alone, and their day meal is is set and made readily ready.

And it gives me a picture on how the ENEMY and COHORTS go about looking for that vulnerable stand alone Believer’s in Christ Jesus – who are not keen to have a covering Shepherd over their head. They roam about as spiritual harlots accountable to no one and none can account on their behalf – Hebrews 13:16-17. These Believers that belong to no fellowship or Local assembly or attend any gathering of God’s precious and redeemed people are exposed as lone soldier for the enemy and cohorts to PREY upon at challenging and difficult times.

DON’T BE A LONE MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER BELIEVER’S AND MINISTER’S IN THE BODY OF CHRIST GOSPEL MINISTRY

When you think because you can read the Bible and pray to Father God in Christ Jesus, speak in tongues of the Holy Spirit, makes you not to see the need to have interaction and communication and fellowship with other Believer’s of same like father – you are knowingly setting yourself as lone soldier. I have seen people who are more in bond and bound to their set denomination and doctrine and sectarians settings that when they come to a new dwelling places and can’t find the same kind of local assembly they came from, they are not going to worship and serve God wholeheartedly in any new places of gathering for worship.

And some immediately will either form their own gathering assembly as if that’s the only mark to worship and serve God worthily and acceptably and make heaven. And unfortunately, some Minister’s are not in any way out of this hook, because they have so much indoctrinated people with denominational spirit than with the Gospel of the body ministry of Christ Jesus, as such wants their members to use their opportunity to open up an extension of their denomination branch settings and immediately made such people Pastor’s overnight, even the individuals knows there’s no call of God upon their life for such spiritual placement and position – hence today there’s all manners of confusion and schisms and pevert and adulterations in the body ministry of the Gospel of Christ Jesus. And it’s of such like that Apostle Paul warns Timothy not to suddenly lay hands on any man for a spiritual high office to safeguard the body ministry – 1 Timothy 5:22.

In my watching over the natural national militant soldiers and interacting with some fews to hear their respective storyline, one thing I have learnt and can conclude from them is that they never fight alone without a team spirit and set back ups so that when there’s an injury from the enemy’s and cohorts side, there’s an immediate response to take their own out of the battle side whether dead or alive to preserved the honour and dignity and integrity to SERVE as soldier.

Unfortunately, in Church life over the years, especially where ignorance, stupidity and fooolishness and schism exist, I have seen from grandstand where fellow UNPARALLELED ARMY are abandoned and left for the enemy and cohorts to have a full feed day upon in the name of punishment or sectarians reason’s. Yet, the commandant of the UNPARALLELED ARMY, our Lord Jesus won’t abandon and let His own be devour but will take them along as good, chief and great shepherd of the sheep to nurse His own and strengthen them so that they can recover speedily and live to fight another day as David will do against the Lion and the Bear that came along his way with his father’s sheep he was shepherding – and he was able to keep the sheep safe, secure and protected as the scriptures recorded – 1 Samuel 17:34-37.

You ARE a MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER. You ARE THE UNPARALLELED ARMY. You ARE the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead. Be wise to take your place and PUT OFF the civilian uniform and PUT ON the armour of who you ARE in God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Colossians 3:9-15; Ephesians 6:10-18.

BLESSED REGARDS IN THIS READ IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS. AMEN.

“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest WAR A GOOD WARFARE; 19 HOLDING FAITH, AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having PUT AWAY CONCERNING FAITH have made shipwreck: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20.

“And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his SWORD DRAWN IN HIS HAND: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; but as CAPTAIN OF THE HOST of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant? 15 And THE CAPTAIN of the Lord’s host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so” Joshua 5:13-15.

“Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. 16 Behold, I have CREATED the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an INSTRUMENT for his work; and I have CREATED the waster to destroy. 17 No WEAPON that is FORMED AGAINST thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise AGAINST thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is HE that is IN you, than he that is in the world. 5 They ARE of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of ERROR” 1 John 4:4-6.

“It is true that I am an ordinary, weak human being, but I don’t use human plans and methods to WIN MY BATTLES. 4 I use God’s MIGHTY WEAPONS, NOT THOSE MADE BY MEN, to knock down the devil’s strongholds. 5 These WEAPONS can break down every proud argument against God and every wall that can be built to keep men from finding Him. With these WEAPONS I can capture rebels and bring them back to God and change them into men whose hearts’ desire is obedience to Christ. 6 I will use these weapons against every rebel who remains after I have first used them on you yourselves and you surrender to Christ” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (LB).

“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.

“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: 4 whereby ARE GIVEN unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS OF THE DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust”  2 Peter 1:1-4.

“The VOICE of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a HIGHWAY for our God. 4 Every VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and every MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be made LOW: and the CROOKED shall be made STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH PLACES PLAIN: 5 and THE GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and all FLESH shall SEE it together: for the MOUTH of the Lord hath SPOKEN it” Isaiah 40:3-5.

STOP CRYING AS ONE WITHOUT HOPE, FAITH AND LOVE IN GOD

STOP CRYING AS ONE WITHOUT HOPE, FAITH AND LOVE IN GOD: FOR IN YOUR DARK AND DARKNESS – THERE IS GOD’S GLORY AND BEAUTY!

“Therefore we do not become DISCOURAGED [spiritless, disappointed, or afraid]. Though our OUTER self is [progressively] wasting away, yet our INNER self is being [progressively] RENEWED day by day. 17 For our MOMENTARY, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]! 18 So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 Amplified.

I know what tears and pain and disappointments feels and looks like. I know what setbacks with hopelessness, faithlessness, lovelessness looks like. I know how it feels that there should be no tomorrow. I know how it feels to wish the morning was night and the night was day; and when the day and night seems so long and you wish you could BURY YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND AS AN OSTRICH INSTEAD OF SOARING AS AN EAGLE; and when the darkness seems so dark that nothing in life matters any more and all you think about is to stop living because you are overwhelmed with matters of life. I know how it looks when all one can see it’s danger and such like, and nothing meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling any more. I have seen it in many forms to know it’s only by God and through God in Christ Jesus stead to come through under the Sun in humanity.

“For God, who commanded THE LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS, hath SHINED in our hearts, TO GIVE THE LIGHT of the knowledge of the GLORY of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

And I want you to know what else that I know – God does bring forth LIGHT OUT OF EVERY DARK and DARKNESS that shows up in our day to day challenges. The dark and darkness that shows up momentarily or as long standing obstacles in metaphorical form as MOUNTAIN, VALLEY, CROOKED ROAD and ROUGH PLACES, in our path of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Am very certain and assured that God will not OVERSHADOWED that your darkness with light to keep you in circus but will BRING FORTH LIGHT OUT of that seemly impossible DARK PLACE and the DARKNESS with the needed and needful graciousness and gracefulness in His BLESSEDNESS. For God intent is to see you glow, rejuvenate, refresh and blossom out of “THAT” dark and darkness you are dealing with right now. I know it without a shadow of a doubt because each rivers of challenges that I have seen and walk and gone through have made me BETTER than BITTER because I know the essence of light OUT of darkness in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY.

“But the PATH of the JUST (RIGHTEOUS) is like the LIGHT of dawn, that SHINES BRIGHTER and BRIGHTER until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the PERFECT (DAWN) day” Proverbs 4:18 Amplified.

Therefore be at peace with yourself today, for the DAYSTAR in you, which is Christ Jesus the Saviour and Lord for today, tomorrow and always, will shine again in you and through you, and many in darkness will come to your light in Him to share in your joy and testimony of grace. For darkness can’t overshadowed light. Light will always be superior to any darkness. The darker the case, the the more the glow in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Stop CRYING as one without hope in God; for in that your DARKNESS – therein is God’s GLORY and BEAUTY of you in Christ Jesus. I pray that you will take on a new look and leap of faith in life,  that your onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus can’t be stop by any level of darkness no matter the momentary lapses and delays in the now.

HAVE FAITH IN GOD – and be BLESSED in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS.

WISDOM APPLIED – THE CONTEXT IN DOING LIFE

WISDOM APPLIED – THE CONTEXT IN DOING LIFE: THE PLACE FOR – ZEAL (PASSION), KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING IN FULFILLING PURPOSE!

Wisdom is profitable to direct when knowledge, which is a consequence of information is rightly applied in the understanding of the context in question. Hence, I want you to SELAH for some moments before proceeding further. SELAH is to PAUSE and THINK, probably over the header and the content to read along. For while there is time to SOAR in DOMINION, there is a Place of PASSION (ZEAL), KNOWLEDGE And UNDERSTANDING in life, that worth a proper comprehension, in order to FULFILL PURPOSE meaningfully in the wisdom of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. You need to have the perspective of each context respectively in order to apply your heart in the path of wisdom. For wisdom is the principal principle for your well-being to ensure your God’s given BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead is profitable as written:

“If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but WISDOM IS PROFITABLE TO DIRECT” Ecclesiastes 10:10.

LET US CONSIDER THE CONTEXT OF – PASSION (ZEAL), KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING – IN THEIR RESPECTIVE PERSPECTIVES:

***PASSION, meaning Zeal, strong feeling or intensely emotional about something, is a vitality to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. However, a mere passion or being passionate or zealous about something, is not enough to carry one through in life’s Plan, Purpose and Pursuit. One needs KNOWLEDGE to enhance the PASSION or ZEAL to a fruitful end.

Our Lord Jesus Christ in humanity was full of COMPASSION (PASSIONATE) in all His ways of doing life to sort out human needs. Matthew 15:32; Hebrews 5:1-10;

Although it’s possible to be passionate about something without compassion but you can’t have compassion without being passionate to seeing the passion through. It thus also means, being passionate about something with compassion as – Career, Marriage, Relationship, Skill, Trade, Governance, Leadership, Ministry and more – can only be meaningful when there’s an added KNOWLEDGE to such desired PASSION. And is simply for this:

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a ZEAL (PASSION) of God, but not according to KNOWLEDGE. 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth” Romans 10:1-4 (Emphasis Mine).

***KNOWLEDGE is not very appreciated until you’ve experience effect of IGNORANCE – leading to stupidity and fooolishness. It’s very vital in our cause to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT to enhance one’s endeavours with the required or expected KNOWLEDGE for proficiency and for effectual and efficient results.

One of the great high Priestley PRAYERS of Jesus Christ while in humanity was for us to KNOW the the father God John 17:3; and was so concern about those that believes in Him to KNOW the TRUTH also – John 8:30-32; and He equally challenge the religious sectarians and bigots of His days to KNOW the scriptures in order for them to KNOW the power of God accordingly otherwise they will keep living a mistaken and erroneous life – Matthew 22:29.

It thus means that the KNOWING  of the context of a thing is important to evade ignorance, stupidity and fooolishness and erroneous transmission of information. However, as good and importance as KNOWLEDGE is, it’s not enough to get stalled in knowledge, there’s the need for an UNDERSTANDING to that KNOWLEDGE in order to make it meaningful. For a mere KNOWLEDGE without UNDERSTANDING puffed up – meaning it breeds PRIDE and ARROGANCE – and it’s a dangerous place to be before God in all ramifications, because God resist the PROUD and ARROGANT in all totality – James 4:5-7; Proverbs 15:25; Proverbs 16:5. Hence, to safeguard pride and arrogance that a mere having ONLY knowledge does result, be wise to add UNDERSTANDING to KNOWLEDGE as in this scriptural context of admonition:

“Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. KNOWLEDGE PUFFED UP, but charity edifieth. 2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. 3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him” 1 Corinthians 8:1-3 (Emphasis Mine).

***UNDERSTANDING what you KNOW and PASSIONATE about is the key to WISDOM for life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT.

Until one UNDERSTANDS full well what one is KNOWLEDGEABLE and PASSIONATE about, there will be life struggle to attain a THRIVING, COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL and FULFILLING lifestyle, in our cause of doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus stead.

Our Lord Jesus have to ask two people He met on the way after His resurrection while at walk with them if they understand what they were discussing as they walk along even though they knew the scriptural context of what they were discussing on the road to Emmaus. And since they know the context but don’t understand the context, He then expanded the scriptures to their understanding and their spiritual eyes was illuminated and enlightened – Luke 24:1-27.

Hence, there’s the need to get UNDERSTANDING to help us make right decision which is wisdom, the bedrock and hallmark to living victoriously as enjoined:

“WISDOM is the principal thing; therefore GET wisdom: and with all the GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7 (Emphasis Mine).

In summary, you can now come to terms that – when you measure your passionate life as expected of you to have as a living being in any field of doing life with knowledge – and you enhance that knowledge with the understanding in context to the matter of life – there’s no force on earth that can stop you in any endeavor no matter how long it takes to deal with the circumstances in the context of time. Be wise to walk in WISDOM – PASSIONATE KNOWING (KNOWLEDGE) + UNDERSTANDING, for  it makes you a winner, victor, overcomer, triumphant and a more than conquerors in the battle field of life – any day, any time and any where.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

“Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have COMPASSION on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way” Matthew 15:32 (Mark 8:2).

“. . . 32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: 33 shouldest not thou also have had COMPASSION on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? 34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him . . .” Matthew 18:21-35.

“As he spake these words, many BELIEVED on him. 31 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 8:30-32.

“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.

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION of the dead” Proverbs 21:16.

“Good UNDERSTANDING giveth favour: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS is HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 13:15.

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

“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.

THE GLORIOUS CHURCH

By Leave a Comment

THE GLORIOUS CHURCH: THE UNPARALLELED ARMY – Is The CHURCH of God In Christ Jesus Stead!

“SANCTIFY (SET APART) them through thy TRUTH: thy WORD is TRUTH” John 17:17.

“And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. HOLY FATHER, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast GIVEN me, THAT THEY MAY BE ONE, AS WE ARE. 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled” John 17:11-12.

The GLORIOUS Church is an UNPARALLELED ARMY – being the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead; and is born of the Holy Spirit of God, rooted and grounded in the WORD of God. The GLORIOUS Church is the splendour of God’s glory in humanity and is structured by designed of God in faith, and fashioned and polished in the similitude of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in His graciousnesss and gracefulness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. John 17:17; Acts 20:32; Hebrews 11:3; Psalms 144:11-12.

For the GLORIOUS Church is fashioned and polished to be an unparalleled army of God’s intent, by being founded and grounded on God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Meaning, in this GLORIOUS Church, there’s no room for PERVERSION, DISTORTION, PRETENCE, ENVY, CONTENTION, SCHISM, COUNTERFEIT, ADULTERATION, FALSEHOODS and such like. Certainly there may be certain group and sects of infiltrators who will be RAVENING WOLVES IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING’S, MINISTER’S OF DARKNESS APPEARING AS ANGELIC MINISTER’S OF LIGHT, and the ENEMY and COHORTS taking the nature of  “A LION” not “THE LION”, thereby in contrary appearing as “A ROARING LION” seeking to find a weak end GLORIOUS Church to devour as a prey, but not as “THE LION” of the tribe Judah that have prevailed and triumph for the GLORIOUS Church in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. There many be many “A LION” but there’s only one “THE LION”, who is the head of the GLORIOUS Church – in the person of our Redeemer, Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Matthew 7:15; Revelation 5:5-10; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; Philippians 1:15-18; Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4.

The GLORIOUS Church as an unparalleled army is authentic and conditioned with the NATURE of God – which is HOLINESS. Meaning as the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus, the GLORIOUS Church is HOLY and HOLINESS befitted in every of the ramifications of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead; and as having the Spirit of HOLINESS which is the NATURE of God without controversy and disputations 1 Timothy 3:16. And as GLORIOUS in HOLINESS, it can’t be LESS GLORIOUS or MORE GLORIOUS in HOLINESS – for in the sphere of God in Christ Jesus there’s no distinction and classification – is only HOLINESS. It’s natured, nurtured, cherished and kept without spot or wrinkle or in any such thing for the splendour of the Lord God in Christ Jesus. For the GLORIOUS Church is you the individual, the local and universal body of Christ Jesus described as members of HIS BODY, of HIS FLESH, and of HIS BONES. Ephesians 5:25-33; Romans 1:1-7.

Hence, Apostle Paul in his writings to the Ephesians Church, compare the Church relationship with Christ Jesus as the head to husband and wife relationship for beauty, purity, glory, splendour, fabulous, gorgeous, lovely, purposeful and such like. He then emphasis the essence of the Church being GLORIOUS and worthily worthy and acceptably in service, as a bride waiting for her bridegroom of whom is Christ Jesus – our Saviour and Lord. The GLORIOUS Church as an UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God in Christ Jesus is as indescribable and invincible and incomprehensible and incomparable and such like – as the head of the Church – being our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Ephesians 15:25-33.

It’s my utmost delight and PRAYERS that our God will inspire you, reveal to you and empower you the more beyond this writ, of who you ARE in Him, in Christ Jesus stead, as a GLORIOUS CHURCH that He’s building to be without spots and wrinkles – awaiting the coming of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Matthew 16:13-20.

MARANATHA!

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK ACCORDINGLY!!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 that he might present it to himself a GLORIOUS CHURCH, NOT HAVING SPOT, OR WRINKLE, OR ANY SUCH THING; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but NOURISHETH and CHERISHETH IT, EVEN AS THE LORD THE CHURCH: 30 for we ARE MEMBERS of his BODY, of his FLESH, and of his BONES. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I SPEAK CONCERNING CHRIST AND THE CHURCH. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she REVERENCE her husband” Ephesians 5:25-33

“For such are FALSE apostles, deceitful workers, TRANSFORMING themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into AN ANGEL OF LIGHT. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his MINISTERS also be TRANSFORMED as the MINISTERS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS; whose end shall be according to their works” Ephesians 11:13-15.

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of THE GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

“Beware of FALSE prophets, which come to you in SHEEP’S CLOTHING, but INWARDLY they are RAVENING WOLVES” Matthew 7:15.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as A ROARING LION, walketh about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11.

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto ANOTHER GOSPEL: 7 which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would PERVERT THE GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though we, or an ANGEL from heaven, PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have RECEIVED, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9.

“And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDA, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. 6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. 7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne. 8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden VIALS FULL OF ODOURS, WHICH ARE THE PRAYERS OF SAINTS. 9 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 5:5-10.

“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, 2 (which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) 3 concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4 and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to THE SPIRIT OF HOLINESS, by the resurrection from the dead: 5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship, for OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH among all nations, for his name: 6 among whom are ye also THE CALLED of Jesus Christ: 7 to all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ” Romans 1:1-7.

“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 (SET APART)” Acts 20:32.

RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS

By Leave a Comment

RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS: IT’S THE LIFE THAT WORKS IN YOU – MAKING ALL THE DIFFERENCE!

“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.

RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS TODAY – for it’s the LIFE that makes in you all the DIFFERENCE for today and tomorrow knowingly and unknowingly. For you are more alike as a THERMOSTAT in Christ Jesus and not as a THERMOMETER in functionality by the ETERNAL LIFE within you.

The Knowing that you are beautifully, wonderfully and fearfully – reverently made by God, and you are in POSSESSION of His in-built ETERNITY – eternal spirit – within you, makes all the difference in you today and tomorrow – Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified), Psalms 139:14; and the knowing and understanding that ETERNITY in-built POSSESSION of God is in your being, should be the most awesome, gracious and graceful POSSESSION in your well being of doing life and living godly for your day to day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

For you are a spirit-being, having a soul, living in a HUMUS – that is the body, which makes you a HU-MAN BEING as in the Holy writ of 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and Hebrews 4:12-13. It’s the MAN in your HU-MAN that makes the being – that’s the spirit being. It’s a non gender, colour, race or tongue and unlimited by geographical location. And it dwells in all being – BELIEVERS and UNBELIEVER alike and leading to either heaven or hell. And it’s God’s ESSENCE in every human being irrespective – Proverbs 20:27; Ecclesiastes 3:11.

When you receive Christ into your life, you received the very life of God called – ETERNAL LIFE (ZOE in Greek) – John 3:16-17; 1 John 5:11-12. And Jesus PRAYED along that line for you too – John 17:3. This ETERNAL life of God gives life breath, the life of God through your in-built eternal spirit into your entire being. Meaning you receive the capacity to function in the realm of ETERNITY in the midst of humanity – human world sphere.

NOTE THESE POSITIONAL ESSENCE FOR YOUR APPROPRIATION:

*** You are BLESSED and your BLESSEDNESS is SET in the HEAVENLY PLACES – Ephesians 1:3

*** You are SET at God’s right hand in Christ Jesus in the HEAVENLY PLACES – Ephesians 2:6.

*** Jesus Christ is SET at the Father God’s right hand in the HEAVENLY PLACES – Ephesians 1:20.

When you understand this, it does not only affect your horizons of reasoning and trajectory of doing life, but you can boldly say and declare as in the epistle of 1 John 4:17 that “LOVE has been PERFECTED among us in this: that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment; because AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD”.

This understanding makes all the difference in the way you live and do life; In the way you see, perceive and receive things; what you say and how you say it and such likes. This is the only way to discover the works and working of God for your recovery into the triumphant living in the world. It helps to colour your life, to thrive in grace and to determine the atmosphere you wants to live in and enjoy as a THERMOSTAT and not as a THERMOMETER.

For as a THERMOSTAT you create and determine the life sphere condition that you wants to see and enjoy as God did for himself in creation (Genesis 1:1-31); while as a THERMOMETER you don’t create or define or determine the life and sphere condition you wants to see or enjoy but you absorbs and takes in the condition that has been set around you to have, see and do life,  irrespective of whether you like it or not – and such is not the place you need be and it distort the redemptive rights and privileges of ETERNITY in you,  in Christ Jesus for you.

RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE TODAY –  IT’S THE LIFE THAT MAKES IN YOU – ALL THE DIFFERENCE!

I pray that you understand this and receive eternal life today and define your HAPPINESS and PEACE in Jesus precious name, Amen.

Be Blessed in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

It’s awesome to know that you’ve been QUALIFIED to share in the saints INHERITANCE in Christ Jesus; and it’s within your redemptive rights and privilege in Christ Jesus, to now rise up in grace – declaring and affirming your FAITH on the DONE DEED.

Will you PRAY it into reality? Now do it in this apostolic line of prayers. Endeavour to personify it as you make bold to declare the SCRIPTURAL writ.

EVERY BLESSING: Let us pray now.

“For this reason, since the day we heard about it, we have not stopped PRAYING for you, asking [specifically] that you may be FILLED with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom [with insight into His purposes], and in understanding [of spiritual things], 10 so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord [displaying admirable character, moral courage, and personal integrity], to [fully] please Him in all things, bearing fruit in every good work and steadily growing in the knowledge of God [with deeper faith, clearer insight and fervent love for His precepts]; 11 [we pray that you may be] strengthened and invigorated with all power, according to His glorious might, to attain every kind of endurance and patience with joy; 12 GIVING THANKS to the Father, who has QUALIFIED US to SHARE in the INHERITANCE of THE SAINTS (God’s people) in the Light. 13 For He has RESCUED us and has DRAWN us to Himself from the dominion of darkness, and has TRANSFERRED us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the forgiveness of our sins [and the cancellation of sins’ penalty]” Colossians 1:9-14 (Amplified).

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT; 2 saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: 3 and there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 5 yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. 6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. 7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH on the earth?” Luke 18:1-8.
