BLESSED REDEMPTION – EQUIPPING HIS CHURCH

By Leave a Comment

BLESSED REDEMPTION – EQUIPPING HIS CHURCH: HE GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS TO MEN!

Jesus GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to PERFECT and MATURE His people spiritually as found but not limited in the scriptures of Ephesians 4:7-16. These MINISTERIAL GIFTS are: APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS and TEACHERS and such likes as may be found in the Holy Writ.

I want you to KNOW and UNDERSTAND for sure that he didn’t give his MINISTERIAL GIFTS to LEGISLATE spirituality to his Church in Christ Jesus stead. For he has GIVEN the HOLY SPIRIT to help His Church to ENACT, AUTHENTICATE and ENSURE His WORD that comes by the GIVEN ministerial gifts in His love. Romans 5:5; 2 Corinthians 1:21-22; 2 Corinthians 5:5. Hence, none should be CONFUSED or LORD over in any form of legislation in the name of spirituality in Christ Jesus, which leads to BONDAGES, RELIGIOUS DOGMAS, MAKE-BELIEVE and FALSEHOODS DOCTRINES that becomes a will-worship Traditions making the WORD of God of no effects. Colossians 2:1-23; Mark 7:7-9; Matthew 15:5-9.

In COURSE and CAUSE of our PASSOVER, our Saviour-King and Lord – Jesus Christ, did not only RECEIVED GIFTS for us in His REDEMPTION DEED, He also GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to us, to enhance and enable the building up to maturity and perfection of His Church, in fulfilment to God’s eternal PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUITS.

For in Christ Jesus we ARE REDEEMED, we ARE BEING REDEEMED and we SHALL BE REDEEMED. It thus indicates the essence of us being GIVEN MINISTERIAL GIFTS to help us live meaningfully, purposefully And fulfilling as His Church to display His glory and wisdom on Earth.

Hence the need to know full well that when Jesus led captivity captive, He did not only RECEIVED GIFTS for men but He also GAVE GIFTS to men to fulfill Father God’s intent for His people in order for them to walk in KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of Him and to be secured from falsehood, adulteration, alteration and ignorance that the ENEMY and COHORTS of our FAITH in Christ Jesus will Pose. Meaning the GIVEN MINISTERIAL GIFTS was and is to EQUIP HIS CHURCH. Anything contrary is not just BONDAGE but FALSEHOOD and MAN-MADE MAKE BELIEVE leading to HELL. Hence I love this AUTHOR UNKNOWN publication writ, which reads:

“BUILDING the CHURCH merely on MIRACLES makes the Church a SUPERMARKET: people come and shop for their miracles and leave”

If you BUILD the CHURCH merely on HEALING you make the Church a HOSPITAL: People come to be HEALED and leave “And if you BUILD the CHURCH merely on the PROPHETIC, you make the Church a PSYCHIC and DIVINATION CENTRE: People come to be READ and leave” BUT if you BUILD the Church PURELY as A WORD BASED CHURCH, every other thing people seek naturally just happens”

Hence, I would commend us to Apostle Paul counsel in the graciousnesss and gracefulness of the Scriptures as it’s written:

“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.

Dear friend, know for sure that Jesus GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to FEED God’s people with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, thereby to EDIFY,  PERFECT and MATURE His people spiritually. So if you must go to a place of fellowship and worship, ENSURE your total well being in Christ is going to such in place or platform as found in the scriptures as written:

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

To authenticate the Church position, God EQUIP His CHURCH by giving MINISTERIAL GIFTS to MEN; this is in order to ensure and assure of the wholeness of our Blessed REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Amen.

TO DAILY CARRY THE CROSS: IS OUR SUPREME, GLOBAL & INESCAPABLE TASK!

v”And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him DENY himself, and take up his CROSS DAILY, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it” Luke 9:23-24 (Matthew 16:24-25; Mark 8:34-35; Mark 10:21-22).

YOU ARE REDEEMED – FROM SIN & IT’S EFFECT

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE REDEEMED – FROM SIN & IT’S EFFECT: Poverty, Sickness And Spiritual Death!

Do you know what? I am so spirited, super excited, graciously happy, genuinely rejuvenating and absolutely overwhelmed with unspeakable joy and peace – simply for the daily KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING that – Christ had REDEEMED us from the CURSE of the FALL and of the LAW; for the LAW was as a consequence and results of the FALL. This makes my intent in Christ Jesus, more of a reality, awesomely and amazingly driven to POSSESSING OUR POSSESSIONS in REDEMPTION.

Much more, we are REDEEMED from the summed curse EFFECT and STING of SIN: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. When you know and understand this, then your only responsibility is to APPROPRIATE, ENACT and ENSURE it by grace through FAITH toward GOD in Christ Jesus stead – Romans 5:1-2. For it is your spiritual – vital and legal RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in Christ Jesus, to POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS in Him. Amen.

In the OLD TESTAMENT, the BLESSING of God was based on CONDITION – that is, CONDITIONALITY; but in the NEW TESTAMENT for the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus, God’s BLESSING is GIVEN, based on the DONE work of Christ Jesus for our REDEMPTION. Hence I am emboldened to say that our REDEMPTION BLESSING – IS A DONE DEED. Just your act of Faith on the believe of the done deed is all you need to do. Even as Abraham BELIEVE the GOSPEL PREACHED to Him and he RECEIVED, so can we RECEIVE ‘WHEN’ not on the ‘IF’, we also BELIEVE as it’s written – 2 Corinthians 4:13, Galatians 3:6-9. Praise God. Hallelujah. Amen.

Be BLESSED in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus.

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY – NO – When It Matters

By Leave a Comment

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY – NO – When It Matters: There’s Enabling GRACE For It!

We live in a time wherein most people have indebted themselves or found themselves at crossroads because they wants to DO God for others, to PLEASE planet earth, and MAKE everyone HAPPY at their inadequacies, to SAVE face from offending and to ENSURE their PRIDE in pain. I say Enough of that COWARDICE ACT of life.

Am here to let you know that it’s a high time to STOP making promises you CAN’T keep so that you can walk with your head up and shoulder high, and on your high heels, in grace and peace of mind. And it’s time to also let you know that it is not a crime or even a sin to say NO to a demand or gesture that wants you to do contrary to your FAITH capacity toward God in Christ Jesus stead; and much more, not been daunted when you say NO due to your inability to meet up with the statuesque of others demand and the prevalence in your set environment. Don’t be the people pleaser, be God’s pleaser towards people in order to save your breath, live healthily, otherwise when you fault, you are gone.

You don’t have to put yourself in a crossroad to swear or take an oath to prove your point of inability – you owe nobody an apology of what you can or cannot.

Be truthful to yourself in God and be EMBOLDENED to say NO – NAY, to any unwelcome demand, just as you can say YES – YEA, in ALL matters of DOING life, this will help to enhance your today and tomorrow in GODLINESS without feeling guilty – 1 Timothy 4:7-8.

Lots of people have ended up in debt in order to –  save face, please others for no just cause and to fit into the demands of peers and statuesque of colleagues and friends. Beloved in Christ, we are not in a competitive world with any or yourself to make you belong. You are a child of God and of PURPOSE. Live within your FAITH and PURPOSE capacity.

It’s a more gracious  graceful sphere, to follow your God’s given PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in life, if you must found your true HAPPINESS and MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT in LIFE and GODLINESS. Ensure that you LIVE and DO LIFE as by the prompting of the Lord by His Holy Spirit in you, and through the WORD, in order to live free and be happy to help any where you can, without guilt and shame at any point.

May I enjoin you to know that the Scriptures indicates that the justified in Christ Jesus shall live by their own FAITH in God through Him. So let nobody makes you through pressure to be their ANSWER and especially to their so called DESTINY HELPER; to be the ANSWERS to their PRAYERS when you are not God, knowing you are unable to fit into that shoe as been pressured. Don’t LIVE someone else life of FAITH for them – it’s unscriptural. Worst still, is to do God for them. Our God is a jealous God, He does not share His person and GLORY with any – BE WARN.

Don’t DO God or be a godfather or answer in DEBT that’s my point. Not saying you can’t help out for people where you can, but to endeavour to say NO without feeling guilty or ashamed in meeting someone dear needs when you cannot. You need to live by your own FAITH as led by the Holy Spirit through God’s WORD in all capacity of life matters – Habakkuk 2:4. Live and help within your FAITH and not in any pressure to do anything and become incapacitated for others good. That’s unscriptural.

Saying NO should not be embarrassing at all just as saying YES should not be either. Don’t take a PARACETAMOL for someone else ACHES, otherwise you may start aching for your inadequacy for not been emboldened to have say NAY – NO, when you should have. Help where you could. Fit in where you could. Much more, LIVE AND DO LIFE BY YOUR FAITH.

Don’t REACT to pressure in anyway by any means; always RESPOND by the WORD in the Holy Spirit that’s GIVEN to you to do LIFE in LOVE by GRACE – Romans 5:5. You are RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE on your life decisions. Make goodly choices.

BE BOLD TO SAY NO – JUST AS YOU CAN SAY YES – LIVE WITHIN YOUR FAITH – DON’T DO GOD FOR ANYTHING OR ANYONE – DO ONLY THE WORD WHILE GOD DO GOD.

I pray God gives you wisdom in this regards before you found yourself at life crossroads and in guilt not knowing to say NO just as to say YES.

SELAH – PAUSE and THINK!

“But ABOVE ALL THINGS, my brethren, SWEAR NOT, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither BY ANY OTHER OATH: but let your YEA be YEA; and your NAY, NAY; lest ye fall into condemnation” James 5:12 (Emphasis Mine).

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that OFFERS SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good” Titus 2:11-13 NIV (Emphasis Mine).

Actualising Your Redemption

By Leave a Comment

Actualising Your Redemption: Through Enhanced Fellowship (Communion – Common Union) To Rejuvenates Your Relationship!

To have and being in a relationship is a gracious atmosphere in life. This could be towards God in Christ Jesus and to family, spouse, friends, work colleagues and such likes. Overtime you will notice that though you are in a relationship with all sorts, you are not enjoying same level of relationship with all. It thus means it’s not enough to have or be in a relationship until one can actualised it; and  and to actualise it is to ENACT and APPROPRIATE it into reality. This is what makes it functional for one to truly enjoy a relationship genuinely.

In same scenario, having a relationship with God in terms of what He has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and is DOING THROUGH YOU in Christ Jesus is very special. However, until we ACTUALISED this redemption acts and processes in our acts of living, life will remain a VICIOUS CIRCLE; and that can’t give any the ascribed VICTORY, TRIUMPH and DOMINION in our walk of faith in God.

Therefore, to enact and appropriate the REDEMPTION done deed by Christ Jesus, in order to POSSESS OUR POSSESSIONS, there’s the need to enhance a healthy FELLOWSHIP (COMMUNION – COMMON UNION) with God. This is the vitality or vital way to strengthen the established RELATIONSHIP with God in our redemption.

FELLOWSHIP is the hub, fulcrum and centre piece jigsaw to make RELATIONSHIP with God or any be lively with the fulness of unspeakable and indescribable joy and peace. This is an act of FAITH and not of the flesh. Only through INTIMATE FELLOWSHIP (COMMUNION – COMMON UNION), will our RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus be enhance in order to fully actualised our redemption indeed; except and unless you wants to be an ‘amen’, ‘bless me’ and ‘Halleluia’ only believer instead of an ACHIEVER in all Christ had PAID for you to BE in Him unto God.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“God is faithful, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9 (Emphasis Mine).

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed (FELLOWSHIP)” Mark 1:35 (Emphasis Mine).

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. 29 And as he prayed (FELLOWSHIP), the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering” Luke 9:28-29 (Emphasis Mine).

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH of LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” Psalms 16:11 (Emphasis Mine).

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him MUST worship him in spirit and in truth” John 4:23-24 (Emphasis Mine).

So what happened on the cross?

By Leave a Comment

So what happened on the cross?

You were spiritually dead because of your unforgiven sins, because that old sinful nature/ your flesh – had not been cut away.

But then God brought you to life with Christ, He forgave all your sins and cancelled the written code of rules and regulations that were impossible for you to keep, and only consigned you to failure and defeat.

Jesus removed this code by nailing it to the cross, there he also disarmed the demonic powers and authorities that oppose us.

His triumph over them on the cross was a public defeat for them!

We have been raised from the death of sin to a new life in Him.

It’s not just for once a year – There is more to the cross.

THE CROSS is the main thing; it’s the power, the authority and victory in Christ.

The Cross is an expression of God’s love. It’s not just a historical event – it’s a now and always power.(Colossians 2:13-15)

“Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 51 And, behold, the VEIL OF THE TEMPLE WAS RENT IN TWAIN FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52 and the GRAVES WERE OPENED; AND MANY BODIES OF THE SAINTS WHICH SLEPT AROSE, 53 AND CAME OUT OF THE GRAVES AFTER HIS RESURRECTION, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. 54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God” Matthew 27:50-54.

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ DIED for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was SEEN of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was SEEN of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was SEEN of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was SEEN of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed. 12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 BUT IF THERE BE NO RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, THEN IS CHRIST NOT RISEN: 14 and if Christ be not RISEN, then is our PREACHING VAIN, and your FAITH is also VAIN. 15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. 16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: 17 and if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. 18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. 20 BUT NOW IS CHRIST RISEN FROM THE DEAD, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming” 1 Corinthians 15:1-23.

“. . . 14 For he is our peace, who hath MADE BOTH ONE, AND HATH BROKEN DOWN THE MIDDLE WALL OF PARTITION BETWEEN US; 15 having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace . . . ” Ephesians 2:11-16.

ENSURING YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSION IN YOUR REDEMPTION BILL OF RIGHTS

ENSURING YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSION IN YOUR REDEMPTION BILL OF RIGHTS: MADE POSSIBLE BY YOUR FAITH COMMUNICATION!

Beloved in Christ, enough of complain-hallelujah life style over these years, it’s your time in Christ Jesus to enact, ensure and actualise the essence of being born of God.

There’s a BILL OF RIGHTS IN REDEMPTION with your name ENGRAVED in it by the virtue of being born of God in Christ Jesus, but it’s your prerogative to ask, seek and knock after it to make it a reality for you.

You need to know also that your REDEMPTION reality can only be made possible FIRSTLY through the ACKNOWLEDGING of your BILL OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN THE KINGDOM as a result of our Christ Jesus – DONE DEED – for you and all in Him; and SECONDLY by your UNDERSTANDING of the KNOW-HOW of COMMUNICATING your KNOWN FAITH in Christ Jesus to matters of LIFE and GODLINESS in ALL about living life even as it’s written:

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

And until you can ENSURE, ENACT and ACTUALISE the essence of REDEMPTION of Christ in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ to life matters will always be a struggle, strange, tasking and a burdensome in many ways which is contrary to 1 John 5:3. It’s for these limitations that there are many ‘AMEN’, ‘HALLELUIA’ and ‘BLESS ME’ Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ, unending fasting and prayers and various traditional dogmas, creeds, religious steps they might have taken to make the essence of REDEMPTION in EVERY AREAS of doing life. And this OUGHT not to be so in Christ and for all Christ is to us in Him by REDEMPTION.

You can only APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of your REDEMPTION in Christ of all that God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD through the promised given HOLY SPIRIT, supposedly.

Here are few REASONS to seek for KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of all that God DONE DEED for you in Christ Jesus, in order to APPROPRIATE your REDEMPTION into reality as a POSSESSION:

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

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

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

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

** That knowledge is power, freedom and dominion, while religion is imprisonment and bondage – Luke 11:52.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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