SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of WHOM thou hast LEARNED THEM; 15 and that from a CHILD thou hast known the HOLY SCRIPTURES, which are ABLE to MAKE thee WISE unto SALVATION through FAITH which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT (MATURE, WHOLE, COMPLETE), throughly FURNISHED unto ALL good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17 Emphasis Mine.

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

“Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover. 42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. 43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it. 44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance. 45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him. 46 And it came to pass, that after three days they FOUND him in the temple, SITTING in the midst of the DOCTORS, both HEARING them, and ASKING them QUESTIONS . . .52 And Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM and STATURE, and in FAVOUR with God and man” Luke 2:41-52.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that NEEDETH not to be ASHAMED, rightly DIVIDING (APPLYING) the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15 (Emphasis Mine).

GOD IS FAITHFUL

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL IS REWARDING!

Many times I have come across the QUEST for an ANSWER by some Believers who are genuine in their dedication and commitment toward God and toward men – burdened as to say  – if indeed being FAITHFUL, that’s is, FAITHFULNESS, is still REWARDING at all. Some of these people have been beaten and battered in life in many ways that the drive and passion to remain FAITHFUL seems deceptive, illusive and unrealistic to them in matters of  life and godly living.

And sometimes as a Pastor, you are almost drawn into these sentiments of people whose acts of FAITHFULNESS are shattered, when you are presented with the vivid facts of their encounters and experiences. Especially when you see matters of life in this light:

** A woman being beaten up and maimed by the temperamental and untampered husband or like another husband having a wife you can’t truly be assured anymore of her ways due to the change from a WE statement to an – I, ME and MYSELF trinity.

** When an employee working and putting up with much of the skill to see the business setting THRIVE for the good of the Business with hope while such employee is being undermined by the employer with no fair and justifiable returns; or an employer doing and going beyond the company capacity to ensure employees are looked after, are given a good commensurate returns and care, while therein are some mean, dubious, undedicated and untrustworthy employee, who are there only for the looting, wasting and undermining the prospects of seeing such Business THRIVE knowingly and unknowingly; and they knowing that their doings may have terrible impact on them and all those who looks up to them through that means for their livelihood.

** When a government is failing in governance to the cause and course of giving leadership and governance in the distribution of the set resources to everyone without prejudice, discrimination and dissemination and such like; while there are some others within the system sabotaging the good effort and structure in place for the good governance and wealth distribution to all by their wicked, crafty, cunning and evil intent to loot the system and make it fail at no consequence.

** And the list goes on and on in various life applications of the challenge of FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL. You can name them too to make up this paragraph.

However, I am emboldened to say by the light of the Scriptures that BEING FAITHFUL – that is, FAITHFULNESS is rewarding in God, no Matter the prevailing challenges and circumstances that one might face or have been facing for a while or may face later on. For me, the knowing that God is FAITHFUL to Himself and His WORD in all about LIFE and GODLY LIVING, I recommend again of the need to live FAITHFUL. Hence, we are employed and enjoined as Believers in Christ Jesus stead, that in whatever capacity – WORD OR DEED, in carrying out our duty or Services, as toward God and toward man, we should do it as unto  God in the name of Jesus Christ; for God is FAITHFUL to REWARD us accordingly in spite of all happenings, in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Therefore I say to you, hold fastly and firmly the MYSTERY of your FAITH in the grace in Christ Jesus stead, with a PURE CONSCIENCE.

Herein are few hints but not limited to indicate that FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL, IS REWARDING in God, in Christ Jesus stead:

  1. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, gets one an enriching rewards and abounds with blessings. Proverbs 28:20; Proverbs 10:22; Ephesians 1:3.
  2. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, permits progress and abounds with healing and health. Proverbs 13:17, 2 Corinthians 5:20.
  3. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with refreshing grace for the good of others. Proverbs 25:13; Isaiah 44:24-26.
  4. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with commendation and the enabling to increase and promotion. Matthew 25:21, 23; Mark 10:28-30.
  5. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with eternal reward. Matthew 25:21b, 23b; Mark 10:28-30.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“FAITHFUL is he that CALLETH you, who also will DO it” 1 Thessalonians 5:24 (1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30).

“But the Lord is FAITHFUL, who shall STABLISH you, and KEEP you from EVIL” 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

“And WHATSOEVER ye do in WORD or DEED, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him” Colossians 3:17.

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

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

“Let us hold fast the PROFESSION of our faith without wavering; for He is FAITHFUL that PROMISED” Hebrews 10:23.

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

NO MATTER THE NEVERTHELESS AND THE NOTWITHSTANDING OF YOUR SITUATIONS TODAY

NO MATTER THE NEVERTHELESS AND THE NOTWITHSTANDING OF YOUR SITUATIONS TODAY: STAY FAITHFUL IN PRAYERS – THERE’S AN ANSWER WITH GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT (GIVE UP, LOOSE HEARTS, BE WEARY) . . . 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18 Emphasis Mine.

Dear friend, be ASSURED and KNOW full well, that in Christ Jesus stead, no matter the NOTWITHSTANDING and the NEVERTHELESS you’ve found yourself at this very moment in life – You don’t need to FAINT, GIVE UP, BE WEARY, LOOSE HEARTS, BE UNFAITHFUL to the principles of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus because of your current challenges. You need to take the bull by the horns, knowing it’s in all goodness, graciousnesss and gracefulness for you to just stay FAITHFUL in PRAYERS – which is the CONSULTATION LIFELINE with God, until your ANSWERS comes.

THERE’S A MIRACLE for you in God’s BLESSEDNESS if you can take the needed and needful step of FAITH in God. For with God – ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE – [Matthew 19:26]. And ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE to you and to all Who BELIEVE God by FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – [Mark 9:23].

“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is IMPOSSIBLE; but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Matthew 19:26.

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

Do you truly and earnestly BELIEVE the possibility God as Simon Peter fully Believe of God’s WORD to launch into the deep for a catch – the catch that comes on obeying Christ Jesus demands? [Luke 5:1-11]. Thus indicating that God will always COMMEND what He COMMAND. That should be your personal ANSWER to that QUEST you earnestly desire to turn around today no matter your situations. For we OUGHT to PRAY and not FAINT – and God seek a heart of FAITHFULNESS in all situations [Luke 18:1-8].

“. . . 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, AND LET DOWN YOUR NETS FOR A DRAUGHT. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, AND HAVE TAKEN NOTHING: Nevertheless At Thy Word I WILL LET DOWN THE NET. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a GREAT MULTITUDE OF FISHES: and their NET BRAKE . . .” Luke 5:1-11.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and NOT TO FAINT (GIVE UP, LOOSE HEARTS, BE WEARY) . . . 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. NEVERTHELESS when the Son of man cometh, shall he find FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) on the earth?” Luke 18:1-18/Emphasis Mine.

There are many occasions wherein we are at crossroads one way or the other. The natural thing to do in most cases is by tending to go down to Egypt because of the FAMINE of life as Isaac of Abraham of Genesis 26:1-6. But if you can take a stand on God’s WORD as he was instructed by God, therein he waxed great and went on to become very greater in the fulness of God’s BLESSEDNESS that took it’s hold in him as in Genesis 26:12-14 (Genesis 26).

There’s the need to stay FAITHFUL in PRAYERS no matter the nevertheless and the notwithstanding of your situations today; for there’s an ANSWER with God in Christ Jesus stead. Take the NOTWITHSTANDING and NEVERTHELESS position stand in PRAYERS, to deal with everything that stands in your part of BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“I will therefore that MEN PRAY EVERY WHERE, LIFTING UP HOLY HANDS, WITHOUT WRATH AND DOUBTING . . . 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 NOTWITHSTANDING she shall be SAVED in CHILDBEARING, if they continue in FAITH and CHARITY and HOLINESS with SOBRIETY” 1 Timothy 2:8-15.

“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the FURTHERANCE OF THE GOSPEL; 13 so that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; 14 and many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. 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. 19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. 23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: 24 NEVERTHELESS to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. 25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith; 26 that your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again” Philippians 1:12-26.

LIVING THOUGHT: YOU ARE GOD’S CHURCH

By Leave a Comment

LIVING THOUGHT: YOU ARE GOD’S CHURCH – OF THE CHURCHES OF GOD!

“. . . 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH; and THE GATES OF HELL shall not prevail against it . . .” Matthew 16:14-20.

“Give none offence, neither to THE JEWS, nor to THE GENTILES, nor to THE CHURCH of God: 33 even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved” 1 Corinthians 10:32-33.

“Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me DAILY, the CARE of all THE CHURCHES” 2 Corinthians 11:28.

The CHURCH is NOT the CATHEDRAL or STRUCTURAL BUILDING or DENOMINATION of any kind that you may think. For YOU ARE the Church and of THE CHURCHES of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen! You the one Church of the Churches that the Saviour and Lord, Christ Jesus, is building. You ARE that building undergoing His work 24/7. You ARE His temple, His dwelling place. You ARE of God and He lives in you. You are the dwelling of the Holy Godhead and the greater one resides in you. That’s awesomeness, graciousnesss and gracefulness indeed.

“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 . . .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’s a high time you know who you ARE and ARE BECOMING of God in Christ Jesus stead; otherwise, you may be subject to the SECTARIANISM and DENOMINATIONALISM embedded in the tradition of men make-belief and dogmas, creeds, bylaws and philosophy that leads to BONDAGES and not after Christ Jesus stead. When you know you are the Church, you won’t be having infighting as the Corinthians Churches who lay claims to – “I am of Paul or I am of Apollos” the nearly ruined their faith of God in Christ Jesus. Even today, many have subjected themselves to – “I am of this DENOMINATION, of that SECTARIANISM or of that Apostle or Prophet or Pastor and such like, than to being after Christ Jesus as His Church of the Churches of God in Him.

“. . . 6 As ye have therefore RECEIVED Christ Jesus the Lord, so WALK ye in him: 7 ROOTED and BUILT up in him, and STABLISHED in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 BEWARE LEST ANY MAN SPOIL you through PHILOSOPHY and VAIN DECEIT, after the TRADITION OF MEN, after the RUDIMENTS of the world, and NOT AFTER Christ. 9 For in him DWELLETH all the FULNESS of the Godhead bodily. . .” Colossians 2:1-23.

“. . . 3 For ye are yet CARNAL: for whereas there is among you ENVYING, and STRIFE, and DIVISIONS, are ye not CARNAL, and WALK AS MEN? 4 For while one saith, I AM OF PAUL; AND ANOTHER, I AM OF APOLLOS; ARE YE NOT CARNAL? 5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? 6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase  . . .” 1 Corinthians 3:1-9

Gathering at the structural building is Scripturally good, needful and helpful but it’s not the Church. It’s you, your PRESENCE in that place and with OTHERS that makes the building in terms “the Church and the CHURCHES” per se, otherwise it could be any hall or places of doing life also like restaurants, Office, Leisure centre etc.

“NOT FORSAKING the ASSEMBLING of ourselves together, as the MANNER of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25.

“But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the GENERAL ASSEMBLY and CHURCH of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel” Hebrews 12:22-24.

Know for certainty, that the Church, is made up firstly, of the individual – you, then the local – group gathering otherwise called assembly and the universal body, of the born of God in Christ Jesus, under a shepherd. This is worth noting as you do life in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. The Church/Churches is/are not reckoned by  denomination and affiliates but as a body, living under God in Christ Jesus stead, by the Holy Spirit lead, through the  WORD of God.

Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK for you ARE the CHURCH that Father God is building in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore if ANY MAN be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE (CREATION): old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (Emphasis Mine).

“. . . 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH; and THE GATES OF HELL shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt BIND on earth shall be BOUND in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt LOOSE on earth shall be LOOSED in heaven . . .” Matthew 16:14-20.

“Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9 For WE ARE LABOURERS together with God: ye ARE God’s HUSBANDRY, ye ARE God’s BUILDING” 1 Corinthians 3:8-9.

“and 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.

“Know ye not that ye ARE the TEMPLE of God, and that the Spirit of God DWELLETH in you? 17 If any man defile the TEMPLE of God, him shall God destroy; for the TEMPLE of God is holy, which TEMPLE ye ARE.” 1 Corinthians 3:16-20.

“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.

“Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:22

Your MARRIAGE is BLESSED and not CURSE – when you see it from the EYES of the SCRIPTURES and not from the EYES of MAN-MADE TRADITION, SECTARIANISM and DENOMINATIONALISM and such like.

For marriage it’s a covenant of grace; and a call of God in Christ Jesus stead to inherit the BLESSING of God’s BLESSEDNESS – as heirs who shares in the common grace of life and godliness; and whose PRAYERS are and can be effectual without obstruction and unhindered by any means.

“Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to KNOWLEDGE, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being HEIRS together of the grace of life; that your PRAYERS be not HINDERED . . . 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; knowing that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT A BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:7, 9.

God MADE marriage, as such, only by Him through His WORD it does work to the fulness in life and grace. In God, your marriage is good and blessed and not curse. Get your marriage CONNECTED and SYNCHRONIZED with God in Christ Jesus stead and not to religion sectarianism and denominationalism and such like. Begin now to see your marriage and marital relationship from the perspective of God in order to obtain and actualised your promised favour and to inherit your blessed BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 7 As being HEIRS together of the GRACE of LIFE; that your PRAYERS be not HINDERED. 8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, LOVE as BRETHREN, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; knowing that YE ARE thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT a BLESSING. 10 For he that will LOVE life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the EYES of the Lord are over the righteous, and his EARS are open unto their prayers: but the FACE of the Lord is against them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12.

“SUBMITTING yourselves one to another in the FEAR of God. 22 Wives, SUBMIT yourselves unto your OWN husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 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 5:21-33.

LIVE TO FORGIVE – JUSTIFY AND EMBRACE

LIVE TO FORGIVE – JUSTIFY AND EMBRACE: IT’S AN ANTIDOTE TO BITTERNESS, WRATH AND UNANSWERED PRAYERS – APPLY IT TODAY!

“And WHENEVER you STAND praying, if you have anything AGAINST anyone, FORGIVE him, that your Father in heaven may also FORGIVE you your trespasses. 26 But if you do NOT FORGIVE, neither will your Father in heaven FORGIVE your trespasses” Mark 11:25-26.

God did not only FORGIVES us our SIN but does forgives us every now and always in our sinful nature shortfalls in Christ Jesus. And to ensure and assure it, He JUSTIFIED us and EMBRACED us that we might have ACCESS in His grace and walk daily before Him in FREEDOM – without shame, fear, torments and condemnation. THINK ABOUT IT! It WORTH everything in doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Romans 5:1-2; Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 1:9.

It also thus mean, that RESENTING whosoever will not help you. For you can’t RESENT the person you INTENTIONALLY PRAY to God FOR if you genuinely BELIEVE God for an ANSWER to your prayers. But you will be entangled in SELF BONDAGE and BITTERNESS, WRATH and ANGER when you don’t genuinely PRAY FOR and PRAY AGAINST the one you are intending or already RESENTING as the Holy writ enjoined – Matthew 5:38-48. It’s simply because we don’t wrestle against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers and spiritual wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6. Hence, our priorities have to be set alright if we must enjoy our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead.

Genuine FREEDOM is only possible if you commit to pray for the one that hurts you. You can’t be taking PAIN RELIEVER for another’s ache in BITTERNESS, WRATH and UNANSWERED PRAYERS. So get out of your high horse and do the scriptural wise thing.

May God gives you the enabling grace in His BLESSEDNESS to live FREE in Christ Jesus stead in every way scripturally Amen.

God’s LOVE Plan

God’s LOVE Plan: To Give You A HOPEFUL Today, A GRACIOUS And GRACEFUL Tomorrow!

“For I KNOW the PLANS I have for you, declares the Lord, PLANS to PROSPER you and not to harm you, PLANS to give you HOPE and a FUTURE” Jeremiah 29:12 (NIV).

God’s PLAN for your Life is REAL and GENUINE: and His plan is to give you a hope for today and future for your tomorrow. He’s the God of the now in Christ Jesus, therefore, don’t let any tell you otherwise. Much more, God loves you unconditionally and irrespectively – and that’s while you can’t afford to live otherwise or for an alternative that’s counterfeit, adulterated, fake and of religiosity.

“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that LOVED us, and WASHED us from our sins in his own blood, 6 and hath MADE us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” Revelation 1:5-6.

Herein are two thoughts to consider here but not limited:

FIRSTLY, God loves you in spite of whatsoever is going on right now in your life.

SECONDLY, Are you low or beneath in life onward and upward trajectory in altitude? You need to know that you are still God’s best and His intent is to give you a hopeful today and a blessed future in life and godly living; and His grace to make it possible are available and irrevocable. He loves you and cares about you no matter how your day, week, month and year has been, especially this year per se.

You need to rise up, dust off and tidy up yourself, raise up you head, look upwards, adjust your shoulders, shake off your limitations and see the dawning of a new you in the eyes of God’s LOVE, to make it good for you.

Say to yourself, I am God’s best and showcase, and I will not fail, because God has never failed and will not fail, and He won’t begin with me. Amen!

I PRAY for God’s enabling grace, wisdom and speed in everyway in His BLESSEDNESS to abound the more with you, to advance the Kingdom Cause of God in your life, and to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay, in Christ Jesus stead and precious name. Amen.

LOVE DOES HEALS AND KEEPS ONE HEALTHILY ALIVE

LOVE DOES HEALS AND KEEPS ONE HEALTHILY ALIVE: ONLY INCREASE THE DOSAGE AND APPLY IT TODAY!

“Be ye therefore FOLLOWERS of God, as dear children; 2 and WALK in LOVE, as Christ also hath LOVED us, and hath GIVEN himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a SWEETSMELLING savour” Ephesians 5:1-2.

It’s a high time you top up and increase your LOVE DOSAGE. God LOVES you – go and do likewise in every circumstances of doing life and living godly.

When you begin to love God in Christ Jesus stead, and love yourself in Him, and love others irrespective and without sentiment, prejudice and dissimulation in every aspect of human relationships, you create a default for a healthy living – knowingly and unknowingly.

“Let LOVE be WITHOUT DISSIMULATION [HYPOCRISY]. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with BROTHERLY LOVE; in honour preferring one another” Romans 12:9-10/Emphasis Mine.

If you think you are struggling, top of your FAITH toward God in Christ Jesus with the love lubricant, and you will experience the graciousness and gracefulness of God’s BLESSEDNESS beyond your wildest imagination.

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been CALLED unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but BY LOVE SERVE ONE ANOTHER. 14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself” Galatians 5:6, 13-14.

Living and walking in LOVE as God has loved us in Christ Jesus, is all we need earnestly now as a default in order to obtain the leverage over that mountain that tends to stop us in our path of living purposefully and in the fulness of doing life and living godly.

“And to KNOW the LOVE of Christ, which PASSETH KNOWLEDGE, that ye might be FILLED with all the FULNESS of God” Ephesians 3:19.

“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.

“Let LOVE be without DISSIMULATION (HYPOCRISY). Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly AFFECTIONED one to another with BROTHERLY LOVE; in honour preferring one another . . . “ Romans 12:9-21 (Emphasis Mine).

IT’S YOUR CHOICE TO MAKE

By Leave a Comment

IT’S YOUR CHOICE TO MAKE – TO HAVE ‘THE’ LIFE OR ‘A’ LIFE: BE WISE TO GET ‘THE’ FULNESS OF LIFE NOT ‘A’ PORTION AND ‘A’ PART OF LIFE!

“Jesus saith unto him, I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIFE: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” John 14:6.

Many times you hear people or someone say – Get ‘A’ Life. Most times the connotations is to make you get out of your high horse and do something meaningful or exciting or get engaged with the norm that’s around at the moment or the combinations of all and such like. To get ‘A’ life will limits you as a child of God, I can say that and tell you that because I know and understand the connotations. It thus indicates getting A PART or PORTION of the FULNESS of God for you in Christ Jesus. You are REDEEMED for the FULL DEAL OF LIFE AND NOT FOR A PART OR LIMITED DEAL OF LIFE. And THE LIFE is a person, that’s THE LIFE and THE LIGHT of men in the person of our Saviour and Lord Christ Jesus, who then is THE WORD of God for our well-being. So, don’t just get A LIFE, but get THE LIFE in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were MADE by him; and without him was not any thing MADE that was MADE. 4 In him was LIFE; and THE LIFE was the LIGHT of men. 5 And THE LIGHT shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . . 14 And THE WORD was MADE flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth . . . 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ” John 1:1-5, 14, 16-17.

It’s time to Get ‘THE’ LIFE and not ‘A’ LIFE my friend. God wants you to have the FULNESS of life which is in Christ Jesus. What God offers in Christ Jesus is THE LIFE and not an ‘A’ LIFE. The Holy Writ do admonish and exhort that Jesus is the – ‘THE’ LIFE giver, not the – ‘A’ LIFE giver, which is toward DOING LIFE on earth and LIVING GODLY toward the heavenly. Look at the article ‘THE’ in the scriptural context of John 14:6, it says – ‘THE’ LIFE not ‘A’ LIFE. It thus indicates that the FULNESS is in Christ Jesus who offers THE LIFE and not A PART OR PORTION you get when propel by people to – GET ‘A’ LIFE.

This is to affirm also the Christian Faith is LIFE – THE LIFE – that is offered in the REDEMPTION OFFERING of Jesus Christ, which is not just A WAY of LIFE as some may have said or suggested as in religious circus. This is the Life which is in Christ Jesus and not of the five senses mindset of A WAY which many have been deluded with over time in COMMON sense and not SCRIPTURAL sense.

“For whatsoever things were WRITTEN aforetime were WRITTEN for our LEARNING, that we through PATIENCE and COMFORT of the SCRIPTURES might have HOPE” Romans 15:4.

You can infer this same insight to matter of Jesus Christ as – THE WAY and THE TRUTH. Meaning the CHRISTIAN FAITH in Christ Jesus is not of ‘A’ WAY or ‘A’ TRUTH but ‘THE’ WAY and ‘THE’ TRUTH. And it’s ONLY by ‘THE’ TRUTH in ‘THE’ WAY, that one can obtain SCRIPTURAL FREEDOM that is WHOLESOME indeed, and not by ‘A’ TRUTH or ‘A’ WAY. It’s upon this understanding, that the early Apostles where attributed as people of heresy and were persecuted as conveyor’s of heresy, as they were then nicknamed as people of – “THE WAY” – in the earlier Apostolic Christian walk in Christ Jesus stead.

“But this I confess unto thee, that after THE WAY which they CALL HERESY, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets” Acts 24:14.

I pray as you ponder meditatively you will get insight and foresight to the realm of the enabling that God offers in THE LIFE in Christ Jesus stead for your good and goodness in His BLESSEDNESS. Amen.

“But CONTINUE thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast LEARNED them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy SCRIPTURES, which are ABLE to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 ALL SCRIPTURE is GIVEN by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT (WHOLE, COMPLETE, FULLY, MATURED), throughly FURNISHED unto ALL good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17 (Emphasis Mine).
