Welcome To Month SEPTEMBER 2020: The Month We Can – “DARE TO TRIUMPH IN EVERY PLACE” – In Christ Jesus Stead!

It’s Your Month to put on the DARING SPIRIT OF TRIUMPH with – Hinds’ feet as the Sure-footed Deer feet, on High Heels for High Hill places. That is – to put up a shoulder high with heads up and on high heels of emboldened FAITH in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead for your earnest desired place or places.

 For it’s written:

** “Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS causes us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and MAKES manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.

** “. . . 3 EVERY PLACE that the SOLE of your foot shall TREAD upon, that have I GIVEN unto you, as I said unto Moses” Joshua 1:1-3.

** “Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls— 18 Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. 19 The Lord God is MY STRENGTH; He will MAKE MY FEET LIKE DEER’S FEET, AND HE WILL MAKE ME WALK ON MY HIGH HILLS. . .” Habakkuk 3:17-19.

** “. . . It is God that GIRDETH me with STRENGTH, and MAKETH my way perfect. 33 He MAKETH my FEET LIKE HINDS’ FEET, and setteth me upon my HIGH PLACES. . .” Psalm 18:32-33 (2 Samuel 22:33-34).

“For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

WELCOME TO MONTH SEPTEMBER 2022: The Month of – “ENACTING YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS IN CHRIST JESUS” – in order to AUTHENTICATE His BLESSEDNESS in you!

May you in this Month of September, begins to sing a New Song of GRACIOUSNESSS and GRACEFULNESS, just as Christ Jesus was noted with GRACIOUS WORDS, in order to authenticate God’s BLESSEDNESS in you, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And all bare HIM (CHRIST 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 Emphasis Mine

“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 . . .12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and Honour, and GLORY, and blessing” Revelation 5:9-12.

DOING LIFE MATTERS

DOING LIFE MATTERS: ALWAYS READ BEFORE YOU RUN – BEFORE YOU SIGN INTO IT!

To authenticate your grace, wisdom and speed in ALL about living LIFE and GODLINESS, you must as a matter of PRINCIPLE, always READ before you RUN – meaning, before you CONSENT and SIGNATURE to do that matter.

You must have a PLANNED WORK ETHICS, which is, have your VISION-PURPOSE written down in terms of what TIME scale, EFFORT to exert and FINANCIAL cost to accomplish such. Then READ it over and over again until it turns from COMMON SENSE to REVEALED SENSE. Then you can RUN. Don’t start a RUN before you READ. Illumination and enlightenment of the scriptures is only found in a willing obedience – Psalms 119:105/Isaiah 1:19. Unveiling of understanding for direction is given to the simple-hearted on scriptural instructions – Psalms 119:130.

To READ before you RUN/SIGN into any life PROJECT is very important in order to THRIVE; and especially while you RUN or RUNNING your –  Individual Career, Family Life, Business Adventures, Going for your Grocery or other form of shopping, or Starting and sustaining that Ministerial calling, or in any of your short or long terms day to day living project, and other such like. You need to READ before you RUN otherwise, you will sweat, stress and burn out on TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE in unwarranted matters.

You need to know that there’s no DNA for REGRET in REDEMPTION that Christ have given us. Therefore, WRITE the VISION-PURPOSE down, READ IT to understanding, before you RUN with it or SIGN into it.

I pray you God’s grace, wisdom and speed, in LIFE and GODLINESS, and in everyway in Christ. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“I will stand my WATCH, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will SAY unto me, and what I shall ANSWER when I am reproved. 2 And the Lord ANSWERED me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon tables, that he may RUN that READETH it. 3 For the VISION is yet for an APPOINTED TIME, but at the END it shall SPEAK, and not lie: though it TARRY, wait for it; because it will SURELY COME, it will not tarry. 4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

OUR TREASURED PRECIOUS FAITH

By Leave a Comment

OUR TREASURED PRECIOUS FAITH: THE ESSENCE OF PRESERVING AND BUILDING IT IN THE FAITH!

How PRECIOUS is your FAITH in Christ Jesus to you? I do know that people will love to PRESERVE and TREASURE that which is PRECIOUS to them no matter what, especially in life matters as to – friendship, marriage, family, career, precious stones of silver, gold, diamond and such like. And they will actually contend earnestly to ensure that which they TREASURED is respected, preserved and kept away from rots and corruption; and will more ensure that the enemy and cohort to their TREASURED substances are kept at bay far from their treasures.

However, we live in the times when scandals looms everywhere and unfortunately in the Christian FAITH, some as ESAU of the Old Testament are already if not have SOLD their FAITH for a piece of PORRIDGE thereby lost his BIRTHRIGHT and the DEFAULT BLESSING – Hebrews 12:15-17/Genesis 25; Genesis 27:35-37. In some cases the defraud is enormous and people have been betrayed, blackmailed and some killed through greed, coveteousness and wickedness to get at what they want, in high places of trust.

Unfortunately, today, some will wants to mortgage their PRECIOUS FAITH in Christ Jesus, in their desperation for anything to keep to statuesque. Others will wants to acquire things which their PRECIOUS FAITH in Christ can’t handle just to show off, keep to pace, bank balance and afterwards – REGRETS.

Let us not Forget that the JUSTIFIED in Christ Jesus, shall live by HIS OWN FAITH in the FAITH of Christ Jesus. And that the life in Christ Jesus is live by the FAITH which is of the Holy Spirit in God’s WORD and not by the SENSES (hear, see, smell, taste, feel) of the human fleshy desires and instincts – Habakkuk 2:4; 2 Corinthians 5:7.

And if I may ask again – How VALUABLE and WORTH is your precious FAITH in Christ Jesus to you today? How much PRICE and PRIZE have you tagged on your FAITH? Is your FAITH actually PRECIOUS to you? Considering your desperation to BECOME and to POSSESS what you think you should have; and knowing full well the PATH to have it, is not of God; and it contravenes everything about your PRECIOUS FAITH in God in Christ Jesus stead. Psalms 16:11; Proverbs 4:18.

Beloved, your FAITH in Christ Jesus is such a PRECIOUS WORTH in LIFE and GODLY LIVING; and to ensure your precious FAITH, you MUST not go to any length for whatsoever reason, to make it of NO EFFECT in the name of ANYTHING that’s living or non-living.

I pray that you keep your PRECIOUS FAITH alive – ablaze and aflame – through and through, in DOING LIFE and GODLY LIVING, no matter what come your way in this life journey. The knowing and understanding that God loves you in Christ Jesus should emboldened you, in all the way to keep on keeping on, to PRESERVE and TREASURE your PRECIOUS FAITH in Christ Jesus from any stain and desires in the world – 1 John 5:3-5; 1 John 2:15-17.

Its time to take away the PRECIOUS FAITH from the VILE if you must be God’s VESSEL and MOUTH in use to advance His cause and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay – (Jeremiah 25:9; 1 Timothy 2:19-21).

If you are struggling to PRESERVE and BUILD your PRECIOUS FAITH, then uphold your FAITH by PRAYING in the Spirit – THE HOLY GHOST – through THE WORD of God. Seek necessary counsel for help wherein you need to and save day all the way.

May you be BLESSED in Life and Godly Living, in your PRECIOUS FAITH, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the COMMON SALVATION, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should EARNESTLY CONTEND FOR THE FAITH which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are CERTAIN MEN CREPT IN UNAWARES, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, UNGODLY men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ” Jude 1:3-4.

“But ye, beloved, BUILDING up yourselves on your most HOLY FAITH, praying IN THE HOLY GHOST” Jude 1:20.

“PRAYING always with ALL prayer and supplication IN THE SPIRIT, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints” Ephesians 6:18.

“Ye also, as LIVELY stones, ARE built up a SPIRITUAL house, an HOLY priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . . 9 But ye are a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an HOLY nation, a PECULIAR people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath CALLED you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 10 which in time past were not a people, but are now the PEOPLE of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have OBTAINED mercy” 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10.

“Nevertheless the FOUNDATION of God STANDETH SURE, having this seal, The Lord KNOWETH them that are his.

HE BROUGHT THEM OUT OF EGYPT AND LED THEM ON EAGLES’ FLIGHT

By Leave a Comment

HE BROUGHT THEM OUT OF EGYPT AND LED THEM ON EAGLES’ FLIGHT: NONE WAS LEFT FEEBLE!

There’s always a day of questioning. And It was a day of cross examination – after days, months and years of Christ Disciples being called out and following Him Jesus, in His humanity cause Father God that Jesus asked His disciples two profound questions while in humanity. One was a generalised question, while the other was very personal. Herein are the lines of questioning:

** Firstly, who do men (the public – Society, community) say I am?

** And secondly, who do you as a person know and understand I am?

It was very easy for them to ANSWER the first question. But the second was challenging, unexpected and troubling – because it’s personalised not as a group but as Individuals.

Thank God Apostle Peter by God’s revelation rescued the moment, gave an ANSWER as in Matthew 16:13-21. That ANSWER paved the FOUNDATION of the Churches of Christ for which you are a member in particular – 1 Corinthians 12:12-27. And it’s as we are LED by God’s REVELATION that our individual and bodily PURPOSE in life in Christ Jesus, will be made manifest – REVEALED – 1 Corinthians 2:9-10/Romans 8:9-20.

You need to know for sure and full well, that outside God’s REVEAL knowledge, is man MADE structure: Religious creed, Man made dogmas, Make believe, Philosophy, Traditions of men and such likes. All these makes God’s WORD of no EFFECT in our LIFE (on earth) and GODLINESS (Godly Living – heavenly mindfulness) – Matthew 15:6; Mark 7:13; 1 Corinthians 2:1-10; Ephesians 1:17-23; 1 Thessalonians 2:13.

And today, if you are ASKED the same questions by Christ Jesus as He did ask His Disciples that became Apostles, what PERSONAL ANSWER will you give. You own your ANSWER, and that’s what defines your today and tomorrow. It’s what you picture or selfies of Him in you and you in Him that makes all the difference. James 1:22-25.

Know certainly and be assured, that God did not only BROUGHT the children of Israel from the BONDAGES and CAPTIVITY of EGYPT and left them at no where, but He LED them by the EAGLES’ FLIGHT all the way to their PROMISED land of Canaan. The glorious resultant of that LEADERSHIP of God by eagle’s wings, made NONE who allowed Him to LEAD to be FEEBLE. Even their enemy was at DREAD because of God’s presence in the lead.

If indeed, you BELIEVE that God had saved you, washed you, sanctified and justified you by the REDEMPTION DEED in Christ Jesus, why not let Him LEAD you on EAGLES’ FLIGHT. That’s the PATH that enables us to THRIVE in LIFE and GODLINESS, even as He has GIVEN us the access by His divine nature, which we’ve come to put on as our inheritance in the light, by Christ Jesus – Romans 5:1-2; 2 Peter 1:2-4; Ephesians 1:3-14.

Therefore, in order not to be FEEBLE in God, whom we’ve claimed to WORSHIP WORTHILY and SERVE ACCEPTABLY, let us do the meaningful acts of grace in this wise: That is, lets not STOP and SETTLE on being BROUGHT out from our BONDAGE/BONDAGES from Egypt (Sin), but to ALLOW God to LEAD us on EaGLES’ FLIGHT all the way. That’s the way to AUGUST our FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – (1 Corinthians 2:11-16/Psalms 16:11/Proverbs 4:18-23).

It’s as a result of not being LED by God in scriptural terms that many have found themselves in SEVERAL RELIGIOUS bondages. That is, people creating their own PUPPET religious guide and guard by their blindfolded lead knowledge – Romans 10:1-4; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

I PLEAD and BEG you today, to let GO of yourself made religion and let God LEAD you. You will NEVER have any cause to REGRET and be FEEBLE in Christ Jesus stead.

May you be BLESSED In LIFE and GRACE – GODLY LIVING. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 37 He BROUGHT them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not ONE FEEBLE PERSON among their tribes. 38 Egypt was GLAD when they departed: for the FEAR OF THEM fell upon them . . .” Psalms 105.

“Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on EAGLES’ WINGS, and BROUGHT you unto myself” Exodus 19:4.

“As an EAGLE stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: 12 so the Lord alone did LEAD him, and there was no STRANGE god with him. 13 He MADE him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he MADE him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock; 14 butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape” Deuteronomy 32:11-14.

“Who hath DELIVERED us from the power of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins” Colossians 1:13-14.

GREED AND COVETOUSNESS

By Leave a Comment

GREED AND COVETOUSNESS – “THE LOVE OF MONEY”: THE THREE MAJOR CAUSES AND THEIR SIDE EFFECTS!

Money (Finance) is a medium of exchange. On it’s own, it’s not EVIL or an EVIL or the ROOT of EVIL or ROOT of all EVIL as some acclaimed; but it is ‘THE LOVE OF MONEY’ and to simply say – “THE LOVE OF THE MONEY” itself, that is, the ROOT of ALL EVIL.

Money is GOOD. It’s a great means of defence that’s answering man’s QUEST in life, especially when diligently, wisely and prudently obtained and expended.

However, ‘THE LOVE OF MONEY’ has some causes and side effects especially when obtained by GREED and COVETEOUSNESS.

Herein are THREE WARNING SIGNS in order not to be in a position of being captivated by – THE LOVE OF MONEY – that’s obtained by GREED and COVETEOUSNESS:

#1. It causes WORRY: A lack of Sleep – sleepless moments if the balance sheet is not meeting expectations or overwhelmingly breaking your set point.

“The sleep of a labouring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: BUT THE ABUNDANCE OF THE RICH WILL NOT SUFFER HIM TO SLEEP” Ecclesiastes 5:12.

“The sleep of a working man is sweet, whether he eats little or much; BUT THE FULL STOMACH (GREED) OF THE RICH [WHO HUNGERS FOR EVEN MORE] WILL NOT LET HIM SLEEP” Ecclesiastes 5:12 Amplified

#2. It causes DISSATISFACTIONS: It allows greediness and covetousness.

“He that LOVETH SILVER SHALL NOT BE SATISFIED WITH SILVER; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity” Ecclesiastes 5:10.

“He who LOVES MONEY WILL NOT BE SATISFIED WITH MONEY, nor he who loves abundance with its gain. This too is vanity (emptiness)” Ecclesiastes 5:10 Amplified

#3. It causes TEMPTATION: It allows and leads to the breaking of rules, even the law in order to get and acquire more at any cost – which many have become accustomed.

“A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: BUT HE THAT MAKETH HASTE TO BE RICH SHALL NOT BE INNOCENT” Proverbs 28:20.

“The TRUSTWORTHY person will get a RICH reward, but A PERSON WHO WANTS QUICK RICHES WILL GET INTO TROUBLE” Proverbs 28:20 NLT.

Money is good in itself when it’s made to serve or be a servant and not as lord to every vital and legal means of living and doing life. Make it your servant or errand tool only and not your life controller, then you will experience the PEACE of mind indescribable. With peace of mind one is able to be CONTENTED,  live GODLY, and to keep temptation, worry – anxiety and dissatisfaction at bay.

I pray you will not be entangled in bondage as a money lover for a mere self and selfish gratifications at the expense of others, the rule of law, and the decency and order in the community.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For THE LOVE of MONEY is the ROOT of ALL EVIL: which while some COVETED after, they have ERRED from the FAITH, and PIERCED themselves through with many SORROWS” (1 Timothy 6:10) (Emphasis Mine).

“A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: BUT MONEY ANSWERETH ALL THINGS” (Ecclesiastes 10:19).

“If any man teach OTHERWISE, and consent not to WHOLESOME WORDS, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to GODLINESS; 4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, SUPPOSING that GAIN IS GODLINESS: from such WITHDRAW thyself. 6 But GODLINESS with CONTENTMENT is GREAT GAIN. 7 For we brought NOTHING into this world, and it is certain we can CARRY NOTHING OUT” 1 Timothy 6:3-7.

IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE IN GOD – THAT’S NOT NEW

By Leave a Comment

IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE IN GOD – THAT’S NOT NEW: YOU DON’T HAVE TO BELIEVE IN DEATH – IT’S INEVITABLE!

Some people think that BELIEVING in God and or not BELIEVING in God and or being doubtful if there’s God, will change the person of the sovereign God. Sorry, my friend that will not at all happen if that’s your position – and it makes no difference at all about the sovereign God – He CHANGES not and there’s no CONTROVERSY about Him by what you hold or claims to about Him – Malachi 3:6, 1 Timothy 3:16.

Some others think it is their place to be emboldened and to make it known and loud, on why not to BELIEVE in God; and to question if there’s a God besides what they think as freelance thinker or atheists, if the called God can make them unique, exclusive, important and applauded for whatsoever reason in their assumptions or conclusions. I have these scriptural news for you to read in order to be INFORMED and TRANSFORMED, if such is your case because you aren’t the first – Luke 8:1-8; Psalms 14:1, Acts 12:20-23; Acts 17.

Unfortunately for many in their ignorance, one thing that is a certainty for all the living creation – RICH or POOR – there’s a life span for all under the sun. And this is irrespective of how morally good in your own ways you are outside God’s planned REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead; or how wealthy, poor or you might have ascertained in status and position and or have acquired the laid up blocks of being mighty, great and successful in life in humanity. There’s an end point of life span at the undated end road, in which your BELIEVE or UNBELIEVE of God will matter then; and at that point, a mere oxygen or wealth or attained status or acquired success can’t keep one alive, and then is your an ANSWER to the giver of eternal spirit and breath that’s in all human beings – which is in eternity, the breath of God in all – (Ecclesiastes 3:11 – Amplified; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Proverbs 20:27; Genesis 2:7).

The Holy Scripture of Luke 18:1-8 portrays in verses 2 and 4 of a JUDGE, who BELIEVE not in God and have no regards and sense of humanity in him for his fellow human being. How much bad could somebody status be in life. So it’s not knew to not BELIEVE in God; much more to disregards others around you because of your class, status, position and acquisitions in life.

However, HEREIN are some reasons to PAUSE and THINK about your UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING position toward God:

** In the Holy Writ of Luke 16:13-31, there is a living story of a RICH PERSON and POOR PERSON. The RICH man felt all he has attained what will buy him access to God. He NEVER believe death can even get to his doorsteps. As written in verse 21, the RICH man died just as the POOR man called Lazarus died. Remembering Lazarus was daily begging for help at his gate, without his consideration on care on this poor beggar. Unfortunately for the RICH man he became a beggar at death and his wealth and status never followed him.

** A YOUNG rich man was considered to be a foolish rich man in the Holy Writ of Luke 12:13-21. He thought by His acquisition in life he could even buy death. His pride killed him, simply for His disbelieve of being rich toward God.

** The Holy Writ of Acts 12:18-23 gives the most profound of being foolish and ignorance of God. This was exhibited by King Herod whom the scriptures described as one that was very wicked and enjoys the ovation and applaud of men – acclaimed as being God himself. When his breath of life was taken away from him by eternal God he despised, then he knows who actually is God and that there’s God.

I pray you found yourself before God gets hold of you in an awkward position when it’s difficult to bend and reverse the clock of your time while your life breath is still here on earth – Hebrews 9:27.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Let us hear the CONCLUSION of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil” Ecclesiastes 12:13-14.

“They that TRUST in their WEALTH, and BOAST themselves in the MULTITUDE of their RICHES; 7 none of them can by any means REDEEM his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him: 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:) 9 that he should still live for ever, and not see corruption. 10 For he seeth that WISE men die, likewise the FOOL and the BRUTISH person perish, and leave their WEALTH to others. 11 Their inward THOUGHT is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names. 12 Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish. 13 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.  14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling. 15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah. 16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased; 17 for when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him. 18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself. 19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light. 20 Man that is in HONOUR, and UNDERSTANDETH not, is like the beasts that perish” Psalms 49:13-20.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER

By Leave a Comment

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR GOD GIVEN HELPER: STOP THAT CONCEPT OF SEEING MAN AND MAKING MAN – AS YOUR ACCLAIMED “DESTINY HELPER”!

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble” Psalms 46:1

I believe that God uses people at various times in the past and present to fulfill His PURPOSE, and will still use people of all sorts to assist us in fulfilling His PURPOSE in order to ADVANCE HIS KINGDOM CAUSES and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. But to THINK or ATTRIBUTE that a CERTAIN individual or groups of people are to be seen or owned personally as your “HELPER” or in the words of current atmosphere in use “DESTINY HELPER” is unscriptural. Much more to be praying that such person or people will be RESTLESS, STRESSFUL, WITHOUT PEACE, WITHOUT SLEEP AND SUCH LIKES until such or they help you is not only unscriptural but very worrisome indeed of such concept or acts of PRAYERS to God in the name of Jesus. For there’s no scriptural basis for such unprecedented behavioural state, neither is it mentioned in anywhere that man has become our ANSWERS to God’s own PURPOSE in and about our life in Christ Jesus BLESSEDNESS. And such actions, concepts and behavioural mindset of owning or attributing an individual or people as our HELPERS, will not lead any in Christ Jesus to fulfil DIVINELY approved PURPOSES in LIFE and GODLY LIVING; but may satisfy the APPLAUD of men for self-gratifications, oppression and victimisation of an individual or people who refuses such inclination.

Firstly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:3, thus indicates that each Born Again child of God is BLESSED in grace potentially – meaning EMPOWERED to Succeed, to Triumph, to be Victorious, to BECOME, to Thrive, to Create, Innovate and Explore; and to be More Than Conquerors and to be an Overcomer and such likes.

Secondly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:5 and 11 thus indicates that each of us and together, who are born of God are already predestinated to become in God whatever we desired in PURPOSE to be in Him according to His will in us – 1 John 5:14-15. And Romans 8:28-30 then amplifiers that as PREDESTINATED people of God, all things have been DESIGNED of God to work together for our good and goodness because we LOVE the Lord God; and God have justified us, chosen us, predestined us and glorified us in Christ Jesus stead. And if we ARE what the scriptures says we are, how come people are still saying they are either SEARCHING for their destiny or PURSUING their destiny. And as such somebody must be RESPONSIBLE and be held ACCOUNTABLE to be their DESTINY HELPER or the HELPER to make them fulfil purpose or purposes. I have began to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making enemy out of people by the kind of prayers they are making, because they have assumed that they have not been helped or are not receiving helping hands to fulfill their acclaimed DESTINY, which means their labelled DESTINY HELPER is undermining them and should be cursed or maimed for not fulfiling their desired obligations or intended goals.

Someone I thought should know better sent me this message that got me wondering what has happened to the Church or is happening to Church today, and in certain quarters. The message received is this:

“There are no GREAT men, only HELPED men . . . Whatever stands between you and HELPERS be removed now . . . May your HELPER be RESTLESS today until they HELP you in Jesus Name”

I have tried to remove the name of the originator for conscience sake, knowing he’s someone notable in places and a positioned person in the body of Christ; this is to safeguard DECENCY in the Body of Christ sacred Ministry for which I am called to share and partake, and of course, truly believe God is building.  Honestly I was shocked though but not surprised, because I have seen lots of such likes acts of PRAYERS going on in some certain quarters for a while now, which is very disturbing and lots are already questioning.

Am emboldened to say that such line of PRAYER or PRAYERS are unwarranted and it’s unscriptural and must not be a part of the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus acts of PRAYERS by any means. As New Creation, we ARE REDEEMED, CALLED, CHOSEN, PREDESTINED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED by God in His FOREKNOWLEDGED plan in Christ Jesus as written in Romans 8:28-30. The Scripture of Ephesians 1:1-12, thus indicates that God has BLESSED us, CHOSEN us, ACCEPTED us, PREDESTINED or PREDESTINATED us, in Him to fulfill PURPOSE. And to be BLESSED therefore means to be EMPOWERED to succeed, thrive, triumph, more than conquerors, to become and to be an overcomer and a victor in Christ Jesus. It’s not only that we have been BLESSED, but have been PREDESTINATED to BECOME in LIFE and GODLINESS (Godly Living) in Christ Jesus stead.

And when you know that God have BLESSED you and PREDESTINATED you in Christ Jesus to SUCCEED having CHOSEN you, you need not think that any man can HELP or be your sole HELPER personified, to make you BE or BECOME what God have MADE you to be in Him in Christ Jesus stead.

God will use people to fullfil PURPOSE in our life surely. And we don’t owe or own such people to name them DESTINY HELPERS to go PRAYING that they should be RESTLESS until they come and help you. For you are your own destiny, PREDESTINED of God to become in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. It thus means, if God MADE you as said, only Him and Him alone, can HELP you or be your HELPER in fulfiling His PURPOSE in your life in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. No man is to be stationed or be defined or acclaimed or looked up to in such regards. It’s a deception of the Enemy and Cohorts to limit us and hinder us of the helping hand of God.

Therefore, let us walk as obedient children and as Christ Ambassador’s, respecting the supply that God our HELP and HELPER will generate by Himself through men to make us fulfil His will – PURPOSE- in our Life and Godly Living. It will stop all the discord, schism, acrimony and the enmity that have generated overtime as Individuals or the Churches of Christ in doing some ridiculous acts of prayers to possess people as our inheritance in the name of “HELPERS” or “DESTINY HELPERS”.

I pray God gives you Wisdom – knowledge and understanding – in the light of the Scriptures. I pray you live to fulfil PURPOSE by God in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very PRESENT HELP in trouble. 2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 3 though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah” Psalms 46:1-3.

“Likewise the Spirit also HELPETH our INFIRMITIES (Limitations, Failures, Shortfalls, Inadequacies etc): for we know not WHAT we should pray for as we OUGHT: but the Spirit itself MAKETH intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that SEARCHETH the HEARTS knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the WILL of God” Romans 8:26-27.

“For as MANY as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” Romans 8:14.

“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will GUIDE you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will SHEW you things to come. 14 He shall GLORIFY me: for he shall RECEIVE of mine, and shall SHEW it unto you” John 16:13-14.

“WOE to them that go DOWN to Egypt for HELP;and stay on HORSES, and trust in CHARIOTS, because they are MANY; and in HORSEMEN, because they are very STRONG; but they LOOK not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither SEEK the Lord! 2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and AGAINST the HELP of them that work iniquity. 3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their HORSES flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall STRETCH out his hand, both he that HELPETH shall fall, and he that is HOLPEN shall fall down, and they all shall FAIL together” Isaiah 31:1-3.

“Thus saith the Lord; CURSED be the man that TRUSTETH in man, and MAKETH FLESH HIS ARM, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. 6 For he shall be like the HEATH in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 BLESSED is the man that TRUSTETH in the Lord, and whose HOPE the Lord is. 8 For he shall be as a tree PLANTED by the waters, and that SPREADETH out her roots by the river, and shall not see when HEAT cometh, but her leaf shall be GREEN; and shall not be CAREFUL in the year of DROUGHT, neither shall CEASE from YIELDING fruit” Jeremiah 17:5-8.

“The Lord is my SHEPHERD; I shall not want. 2 He MAKETH me to lie down in green pastures: he LEADETH me beside the still waters . . .” Psalms 23:1-6.

“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

GOD IS GOOD AND FAITHFUL

GOD IS GOOD AND FAITHFUL: HE’S SURE AND TRUE TO ALL HIS PROMISES!

In ALL life circumstances and situations, I say Be Still for God is good and faithful, true and sure in all His promises.

For God is the Refuge of His people and conqueror of the Nations, therefore:

CELEBRATE HIM AS YOUR DEFENCE EVEN THOUGH THE EARTH MOVE.

CELEBRATE HIM AS YOUR DEFENCE EVEN THOUGH THE NATIONS RAGE.

CELEBRATE HIM AS YOUR DEFENCE EVEN WHEN HE BRINGS AND EXECUTE HIS JUDGMENT.

Be Still – for God CARES and God LOVES you to be still, in the midst of the storms and raging seas of life challenges and changing times.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

Psalm 46.

“God is our refuge and strength,

A very present help in trouble.

2 Therefore we will not fear,

Even though the earth be removed,

And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

3 Though its waters roar and be troubled,

Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

4 There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God,

The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.

5 God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved;

God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.

6 The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved;

He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

7 The Lord of hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,

Who has made desolations in the earth.

9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;

He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;

He burns the chariot in the fire.

10 Be still, and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth!

11 The Lord of hosts is with us;

The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah”

SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION: CHEER UP, STIR UP YOUR SPIRIT BEING AND BE AT PEACE – THE WORD WORKS!

“Wherefore I put thee in REMEMBRANCE that thou STIR UP the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath not GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR; but of POWER, and of LOVE, and of a SOUND MIND” 2 Timothy 1:6-7.

Be at PEACE – God is in control – even in the midst of all the challenges and unstable circumstances in the World today.

“BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING; but in every thing by PRAYER and SUPPLICATION with THANKSGIVING let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the PEACE of God, which PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING, shall keep your HEARTS and MINDS through Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:6-7.

Take time to stir up your spirit being in grace and prayerfully ponder on these Holy Writ below. I pray you found grace, wisdom and speed in everyway in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead for your today and tomorrow.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave himself for our sins, THAT HE MIGHT DELIVER US FROM THIS PRESENT EVIL WORLD, according to the will of God and our Father: 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Galatians 1:3-5.

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye MIGHT HAVE PEACE. In the world ye shall have tribulation: BUT BE OF GOOD CHEER; I have overcome the world” John 16:33.

“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.

“For I reckon that the SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God” Romans 8:18-19.
