ENSURE PURE THOUGHTS

February 19, 2020 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

ENSURE PURE THOUGHTS: GARRISON YOUR HEARTS WITH GRACE DILIGENTLY – THE ISSUES OF YOUR LIFE WELL BEING DEPENDS ON IT!

As a man thinks so is he, the Scriptures says. You become the thoughts of your being over time. If you dwell on IMPURE THOUGHTS, soonest you become it. When you give your hearts to PURE THOUGHTS, you become same. Therefore garrison your hearts with pure thoughts diligently and live free from impurities. And FEED NOT ON IMPURE THOUGHTS TRANSMISSION from any if you wants the good health of your total well being.

Make no relationship with person or people of impure thoughts, lest you become as them. Let there be no intimate fellowship with any who devote their life with solely impure messages and information by any media formats – written, audio, video or pictorial. Soonest that seed of impurities will define your thinking process. Ensure you stop such person or group from setting their messes on you before they ruin you. You may not be able to stop person’s or people from coming around you but you can stop them from leaving their impure thoughts transmission formats from getting into you.

Ensure you garrison your hearts with the WORD OF GRACE that will keep you safe in order to create a magnetic field and force that becomes your default to filter out and disallow any entrance of such defiled and impure messages into your hearts.

Guard your hearts safely, for out of it are issues to define your well being. For your life follows after your thoughts. Your thoughts process your direction of life travels. BE SAFE from every adulteration that flys around you no matter who may be transmitting such. It’s your life, and it’s within your will to say NO!

SELAH – PAUSE and THINK!

LOVING IS LIVING

February 11, 2020 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

LOVING IS LIVING: DIVINE LOVE – A MORE EXCELLENT WAY!

Stop struggling to love. You are not born of God to survive or be a survival in love. You are born of God to thrive, blossom and colour your worlds in love. We are born of God in Christ Jesus to radiate His love shared lavishly in our hearts – human spirit, by the Holy Spirit that dwells in us. For GOD IS LOVE and as such, LOVE Is of God. And LOVING is LIVING.

The most excellent way to enjoy and express God’s love, is the resolve to be the love GIVER than to DEMAND for love. Genuine LOVE GIVES. For God so love, He gave. Until you resolve to be the love giver, rather than the one demanding for love, you will struggle to express love in an excellent way. And the excellent way of genuine living is emboldened in love.

SCRIPTURES WORTH PONDERING:

“But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you A MORE EXCELLENT WAY . . .” 1 Corinthians 12:31 – 1 Corinthians 13:1–13.

“For God SO LOVED the world, that HE GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

“Beloved, let us LOVE one another: FOR LOVE IS OF GOD; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; FOR GOD IS LOVE. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might LIVE through him . . . 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. GOD IS LOVE; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 HEREIN IS OUR LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR IN LOVE; BUT PERFECT LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: BECAUSE FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that feareth is not made perfect in love . . .” 1John 4:7-21.

“As the Father hath LOVED me, so have I LOVED you: CONTINUE ye in my LOVE” John 15:9.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD IS SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS BY THE HOLY GHOST WHICH IS GIVEN UNTO US” Romans 5:5.

“A NEW COMMANDMENT I give unto you, That ye LOVE ONE ANOTHER; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men KNOW THAT YE ARE MY DISCIPLES, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:34-35.

You ARE God’s Dwelling Place: Stop That IDOLISING & IDOL Worship!

Dear Believer in Christ Jesus, do you really wants to WORSHIP GOD WORTHILY and SERVE HIM ACCEPTABLY? If yes, know full well that you can’t ABOUND IN FAITH, HOPE and LOVE of God’s graces when you’ve idolised stuff around you equal and above God, knowing you are God’s dwelling place.

You can’t acclaim to be God’s dwelling place when you inhabit Idol as ornaments and idolised anything before your God. You must come to a state of reverence and reverential fear where you let not anything stand between you and God in matters of WORSHIP and in the KINGDOM SERVICES AND CAUSES of God in Christ Jesus.

Today is another opportune time and moment been given to you to make a difference. And knowing full well that ANYTHING that robs you of a great and good starts in God’s temple – your body or rather your being, is an IDOL.

STOP THAT IDOLISING! Get rid of that IDOL ORNAMENTS. You can’t WORSHIP and SERVE God with PERSON’S and MAMMON’S!

“. . . What agreement hath the TEMPLE of God with idols? FOR YE ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD; as God hath said, I WILL DWELL IN THEM, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people” 2 Corinthians 6:16

“What say I then? THAT THE IDOL IS ANY THING, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?” 1 Corinthians 10:19.

“AND I FELL AT HIS FEET TO WORSHIP HIM. And he said unto me, SEE THOU DO IT NOT: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: WORSHIP GOD: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy” Revelation 19:10.

“What? KNOW YE NOT THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST WHICH IS IN YOU, WHICH YE HAVE OF GOD, AND YE ARE NOT YOUR OWN? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20.

ABOUNDING FAITH, HOPE & LOVE

February 6, 2020 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

ABOUNDING FAITH, HOPE & LOVE – Endeavour To Inflame And Ablaze Your FAITH To GLOW: Make Your FAITH WORK For Your Good By LOVE!

FAITH without WORKS is DEAD been ALONE. Faith not ACTIONED is dead indeed. Meaning FAITH WORKING without the action of LOVE – which is the DEFAULT can’t function healthily and lacks VITALITY and the TENDER valued power with God.

FAITH is acting correspondingly on what you believe on God’s word accordingly. So the act of faith directly or indirectly in life and charitable causes are as authentic to and by God in His word, only through LOVE.

It’s either your FAITH is WORKING as Scripturally enjoined by LOVE, or you are living by FATE and FAKE knowingly and or unknowingly.

Therefore set your priority with God right; for your FAITH to WORK the WORKS of life and grace EFFECTUALLY, LOVE is INEVITABLE in everyway. Meaning, in order to inflame and ablaze your FAITH to GLOW in grace and life, the default of LOVE must be ensured to be actively engaged.

THINK! PONDER!! MEDITATE!!!

“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, BUT FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE” Galatians 5:6 (NKJV)

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that FAITH WITHOUT WORKS is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED BY WORKS, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 SEEST THOU HOW FAITH WROUGHT WITH HIS WORKS, AND BY WORKS WAS FAITH MADE PERFECT? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 YE SEE THEN HOW THAT BY WORKS A MAN IS JUSTIFIED, AND NOT BY FAITH ONLY. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, SO FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO” James 2:20-26.

SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION: Your Heart THOUGHTS And Spoken WORD

February 5, 2020 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION: Your Heart THOUGHTS And Spoken WORD – Makes & Defines You!

Process Your THOUGHT Before Speaking Forth. You BECOME what you ARE by your THOUGHTS and the WORD of your MOUTH.

“Let the WORDS OF MY MOUTH, and the MEDITATION OF MY HEART, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer” Psalms 19:14.

“My MOUTH shall SPEAK of WISDOM; and the MEDITATION of my HEART shall be of UNDERSTANDING” Psalms 49:3.

“For the Lord giveth WISDOM: out of his MOUTH cometh KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 2:7.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy HEART: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE IN THINE HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt BE SAVED. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is MADE unto SALVATION” Romans 10:8-10.

“For though we walk in the flesh [as mortal men], we are not carrying on our [spiritual] warfare according to the flesh and using the weapons of man. 4 The weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood]. Our weapons are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. 5 We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every THOUGHT and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ, 6 being ready to punish every act of disobedience, when your own obedience [as a church] is complete” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (Amplified).

“FOR AS HE THINKETH IN HIS HEART, SO IS HE: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee” Proverbs 23:7.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: AND IF THOU TAKE FORTH THE PRECIOUS FROM THE VILE, THOU SHALT BE AS MY MOUTH: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them” Jeremiah 15:19.

“For I will give you a MOUTH and WISDOM, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist” Luke 21:15.

Welcome To Month FEBRUARY: Month Of ABOUNDING IN FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE

February 1, 2020 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

Welcome To Month FEBRUARY: Month Of ABOUNDING IN FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE – “The Vitality of The WORK of FAITH, The PATIENCE of HOPE And The LABOUR of LOVE”

Herein Are Few Tips To Take Along And Rejuvenate This Month!

Be EMBOLDENED to DO something different this month from the Usual. Break through that FEAR of boredom and set patterns and methods. For God is not of METHODS but of PRINCIPLES. Therefore,

* Close the kitchen and take time out to have a special meal with family and possibly friends outside home or the usual. Take your spouse out for a different kind of date from the usual. Drive through a different route to and from Church, work or places of interest. Make new and different kind of friends and interest.

* As a man come down from your high horse position and COOK for your SPOUSE and FAMILY. Give the spouse, children and household a REASON to believe you are humane and have humanity in you to blend through life. Give them a sense of HUMILITY that EXALTS. I promise you how lovely and beautiful your spouse and children and family will smile through that day.

* Break through the usual, refresh your laugh, close the church for a week and take members for a picnic and have leisure as Jesus did, you won’t lose them. Go for a sporting, boat ride or ship cruise were possible. Have humour and laughter. Take away pressure, and take time to rest, have leisure at least. Life is WORTH living not surviving. Just have Life for once.

* Stop nursing enemies and unforgiving attitudes, and rather FEED your enemy, give them a DRINK, for when a man’s way PLEASE the Lord, He makes his enemy to be at peace with him. And you PLEASE the Lord God by FAITH – that is, ACTING on His WORD. Do you BELIEVE it, and can you DO it?

* Take someone NEW to EATERY and to the GROCERIES place for shopping and PAY the bills. Where possible give someone a home or shelter, mobility and such like. Look through your neighborhood, there’s someone who deserves LOVE and CARE.

* Take Your Spouse out to a refreshing conference or seminars to booster, rejuvenate and synergised your marriage. Stop living on the old fashioned and stayed place. It’s time to innovate, refresh, recreate and make a better you from that toxic boredom of dissatisfaction and stayed place. Give your RELATIONSHIP a new and refreshing BREATH of life.

* Live your life OUTSIDE the BOX this month. Make peace, apologize to those that hurts you though they are the wrong and give God something to work with.

* Resolve not to murmur, complain, nag, react and blame but to take RESPONSIBILITY for once at least this month. It’s time to speak well and whole to all about you again and again.

* DARE TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT this month by taking a good time of yours for an hour or a day or couples to give someone a helping hand of your skill or trade or mentoring without asking for a pay or reward, more especially to the have not or unskilled or limited by some factors.

* You are of the NEW TESTAMENT, live your life beyond borders, hence visit your Unchurch friends and share LOVE, HOPE and FAITH with them. For once, be of earthly good in your heavenly mindedness.

Do all things in grace, surely you will be bless indeed.

BREAK THROUGH YOUR FEARS – ESPECIALLY YOURSELF THIS MONTH: BE A DIFFERENT AMBASSADOR FROM THE USUAL.
