OCTOBER  – BUILDING UP YOUR PRECIOUS AND MOST HOLY FAITH: THE WHAT AND HOW AND WHEN AND WHERE TO BUILD UP YOUR PRECIOUS FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD! 

“But ye, beloved, BUILDING UP yourselves on your MOST HOLY FAITH, PRAYING in the Holy Ghost” Jude 1:20. 

In the course of the Month October, I will be laying out by God’s enabling grace, wisdom and speed, some ground PRINCIPLES to know and understand, on – the WHAT, the HOW, the WHEN and the WHERE and more – to “BUILDING UP YOUR PRECIOUS AND MOST HOLY FAITH” in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like PRECIOUS FAITH with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath given unto us all things that PERTAIN UNTO LIFE AND GODLINESS, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are given unto us exceeding GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:1-4. 

BUILDING UP YOUR PRECIOUS and MOST HOLY FAITH is very eminent and essential now than ever before. Simply because – You can’t afford to fail and be a failure when you ought to be carrying the DNA of redemption to succeed and be fulfilled; you can’t afford to survive or be a survival instead of thriving or thrive meaningfully and purposefully in the enabling grace and power to make real and tangible; you can’t afford to live in defeat, fear and sentiments instead living in the phase of dominion, victory, triumph, overcomer and more than conquerors; you can’t afford to expose yourself to falsehood, adulteration, tradition of men make-believe, dogmas, religious creeds and sorceries instead of knowledge and understanding to live in truth that sets one free and in freedom; and many other such like that “BUILDING UP YOUR PRECIOUS AND MOST HOLY FAITH” in Christ Jesus stead gives you leverage for an onward and upward trajectory. 

Now you know full well that you can’t afford to be a “BLESS ME” “BLESS ME” Believer in Christ Jesus stead, and there’s the need to be built up in the grace to ensure the assured BLESSEDNESS of God in Christ Jesus. For there are some fundamentals and foundational principles herein but not limited, that you need to start PONDERING over as I unveil them individually in course of time within the month to build you up in Christ Jesus stead. 

You need to note, that these principles herein are not in order of importance to avoid anyone thinking that they are steps to follow accordingly, and it’s letting you know in order to avoid the confusion of thinking it’s a step by step to follow. It’s not at all but a guide for your perusal. 

Herein are the BUILDING UP foundational and fundamental principles but not limited however:

  •  The principle of – “BUILDING UP YOUR PRECIOUS AND MOST HOLY FAITH” in Christ Jesus stead – Through READING & LISTENING to sanctified SCRIPTURAL-based FAITH synergy WRITTEN BOOKS and PREACHED/TAUGHT MESSAGES in Christ Jesus stead, beside the Holy Writ for authentication. Be warn that not all BOOKS AND PREACHED/TAUGHT MESSAGES are there to BUILD UP YOUR PRECIOUS AND MOST HOLY FAITH in Christ Jesus stead, hence there is the need for you to READ and LISTEN to them side by side with the Holy Bible, to ensure that there’s no embedded falsehood and adulteration of any sorts within the CONTEXT as the Berean Believer’s. [Acts 17:10-13. 1 Timothy 4:12-14; 2 Timothy 4:13; Acts 19:18-20; John 21:25; Philippians 1:15-18; Job 19:23-24, Proverbs 4:20-23; Joshua 1:8; Hebrews 4:12-13].

I hope the above and not limited principles of – “BUILDING UP YOUR PRECIOUS AND MOST HOLY FAITH” in Christ Jesus stead – will help you to advance in the grace in order to ensure the assured redemption rights and privileges.

WELCOME TO MONTH OCTOBER: THE MONTH OF ENACTING THE COMMISSION – “OCCUPY TILL I COME”! 

By Leave a Comment

WELCOME TO MONTH OCTOBER: THE MONTH OF ENACTING THE COMMISSION – “OCCUPY TILL I COME”! 

“And he called his TEN servants, and DELIVERED them TEN pounds, and said unto them, OCCUPY TILL I COME” Luke 19:13. 

“So, he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, ‘DO BUSINESS TILL I COME” Luke 19:13/NKJV. 

Month October indicates BLESSEDNESS. And by the knowledge and understanding of the context, it’s my earnest PRAYERS that you resolve to take a step of faith in grace to ENACT the Month October theme – “OCCUPY TILL I COME” in order to fulfil the commission mandate to us all – thereby, being Earthly useful and Heavenly minded, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

The Month OCTOBER is the TENTH month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars; and it’s the sixth of seven months to have a length of 31 days. Month October was originally the eighth month of the Roman calendar. It comes from the Latin word “OCTO” meaning eight. Later, it became the 10th month when January and February were added to the Calendar. And spiritually, the number “eight” is said to be a symbol of new beginning signifying WEALTH, PROSPERITY, PEACE and FERTILITY. October is normally time of the year when farmers harvest their crops.  

In the northern hemisphere October is usually considered the second month of AUTUMN and is commonly associated with the season of SPRING in parts of the Southern Hemisphere, and AUTUMN in parts of the Northern Hemisphere, where it is the seasonal equivalent to April in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa. 

In line with the context of the Month October theme, you can recall that in creation God gave man a commission mandate to take charge, subdue, have dominion, replenish the earth by His enabling grace as written in the Scripture of Genesis 1:26-28 and in same scenario, our God by Christ Jesus, have recalled the essence of the great commission mandate to also “OCCUPY TILL HE COME” as written in Luke 19:13. We’ve become inexcusable if we undermine this great opportunity to SERVE God acceptably and WORSHIP Him worthily in the fellowship and partnership in the terms and context of His commission mandate. 

Therefore, to enact the New Creation theme mandate – “OCCUPY TILL I COME!”, thereby ensuring being Earthly Useful and Heavenly Minded” we must be driven to note it’s about the context also, to advance the Kingdom of God and to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay, in our path of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

I do know that a man’s ignorance is his own mountain and the knowledge of the truth will set him free. Hence, I therefore commend you to take time to ponder and meditate on the theme through and through in prayers and where possible accompany with fasting even as the Scripture below do enjoin. 

“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. 

May you find fulfilment and purpose as you take on Month October and enact the theme to the fulness of the capacity that our God has endowed you with graciousness and gracefulness in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

FURTHER SCRIPTURAL THOUGHT WORTH READING AND PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. 12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, OCCUPY TILL I COME. 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, we will not have this man to reign over us. 15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds. 17 And he said unto him, well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. 18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds. 19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities. 20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 for I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. 22 And he saith unto him, out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23 wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? 24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds. 25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.) 26 For I say unto you, that unto everyone which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him. 27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me” Luke 19:11-27. 

“THE EARTH is the Lord’s, and the FULNESS thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” Psalms 24:1. 

“What is man, that thou art MINDFUL of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? 5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels and hast crowned him with glory and honour. 6 Thou MADEST him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: 7 all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; 8 the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas” Psalms 8:4-8. 

“Thus, saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. 12 I have MADE THE EARTH, and CREATED man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. 13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the Lord of hosts” Isaiah 45:11-13. 

“The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but THE EARTH hath he GIVEN to the children of men. 17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence. 18 But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord” Psalms 115:16-18. 

“Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. 

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God CREATED man in his own image, in the image of God CREATED he him; male and female CREATED he them. 28 And God BLESSED them, and God SAID unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH the earth, and SUBDUE it: and have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28.

MONTH OCTOBER – “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS” 

By Leave a Comment

MONTH OCTOBER – “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS”: FOR GOD IS FAITHFUL IN HIS FAITHFULNESS – IT’S HIS BEING AND HIS NATURE! 

“I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy FAITHFULNESS to all generations. 2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy FAITHFULNESS shalt thou establish in the very heavens. 3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant, 4 thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah. 5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Lord: thy FAITHFULNESS also in the congregation of the saints . . .” Psalms 89:1-52. 

One thing is certain in life and grace, that is – LIKE BEGAT LIKE. A tree doesn’t give birth to an animal or mammal. A Lion don’t give birth to a Leopard or Tiger, nor a Goat give birth to a Sheep or Ram, even in their proximity of likeness or characteristics. And if anyone wants to be god like God as the Scriptures enjoins, one needs to “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS”, for as He is, so are we in this world as written: 

“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” 1 John 4:17-18. 

One need to know full well that we ARE the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture according to the Holy Scriptures – [(Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 100:3; 1 John 4:17-18); (John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5)]. It then means that we can live a FAITHFUL life and achieve good successes with God when we dare “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS” for us in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“O Lord, thou art my God; I will EXALT thee, I will PRAISE thy name; for thou hast done WONDERFUL things; thy COUNSELS of old are FAITHFULNESS and TRUTH” Isaiah 25:1. 

The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was FAITHFUL to ‘HAVE IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS’ and therein prospered when he dared. The same enabling grace as to being FAITHFUL to ‘HAVE IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS’ is available to us today when we dare, and it’s irrespective of any of our challenges toward being FAITHFUL and to then PROSPER in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [2 Peter 1:2-4; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2; 24:1)]. 

Our God is the FAITHFUL God, that is, His NATURE and His BEING. He’s God of FAITHFULNESS – He lives within Himself – it’s His NATURE and His BEING, and as such, in achieving life’s goals with God in Christ Jesus stead, it would be great for you to have FAITH in the nature of God, regarding FAITHFULNESS as found of Him in the Holy writ: 

  1.  God is FAITHFUL to Himself in FAITHFULNESS. 2 Timothy 2:13. 
  1.  God is FAITHFUL to His Word and promises in His FAITHFULNESS. Hebrews 10:23. 
  1.  God is FAITHFUL to His relationship in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Corinthians 1:9; Hebrews 8:28-30. 
  1.  God is FAITHFUL to forgive in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 John 1:9 (5-10). 
  1.  God is FAITHFUL in agreement in His FAITHFULNESS. Deuteronomy 7:9. 
  1.  God is FAITHFUL to establish and deliver in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Thessalonians 3:3. 
  1.  God is FAITHFUL to accomplish His part in the assignment that He gives to us in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Thessalonians 5:24. 
  1.  God is the, and a FAITHFUL creator in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Peter 4:19. 
  1. . . . . and many more of His FAITHFULNESS as in the Holy Writ . . . Kindly read the HOLY BIBLE to know the more. 

Considering the above mentioned nature of God in being FAITHFUL, you can bank on His FAITHFULNESS in His grace and BLESSEDNESS to all about life and godliness; this will give you the enabling leverage to abound the more, in sharing and partaking of His promises in the REDEMPTION DEED, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy FAITHFULNESS to all generations. 2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy FAITHFULNESS shalt thou establish in the very heavens. 3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant, 4 thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations.

“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment [QUESTIONING, CHALLENGES]: 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” 1 John 4:17-18/Emphasis Mine. 

“Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is he that hath MADE us, and not we ourselves; we ARE his people, and the SHEEP of his pasture“ Psalms 100:3. 

“God that MADE the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples MADE with hands; 25 neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26 and hath MADE of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; 27 that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: 28 FOR IN HIM WE LIVE, AND MOVE, AND HAVE OUR BEING; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his OFFSPRING. 29 Forasmuch then as we ARE the OFFSPRING of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device” Acts 17:24-29. 

“Jesus answered them, is it not written in your law, I said, Ye ARE gods? 35 If he CALLED them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and THE SCRIPTURE CANNOT BE BROKEN” John 10:34-35. 

“I have said, Ye ARE gods; and all of you ARE children of the most High” Psalms 82:6.

WELCOME TO MONTH OCTOBER 2025: MONTH ENTITLED – “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“. . . [2] And do not be CONFORMED to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be TRANSFORMED and PROGRESSIVELY CHANGED [as you mature spiritually] by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may PROVE [for yourselves] what the WILL of God is, that which is GOOD and ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT [in His plan and purpose for you]” Romans 12:1-2/Amplified. 

I specifically and specially welcome you to Month OCTOBER. This is a month that’s entitled and otherwise themed: “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND” in Christ Jesus stead. Amen!  

The month October thus indicates BLESSEDNESS – which speaks of the Blessedness of God by faith, which thus means you ARE being EMPOWERED to succeed, achieve, become and thrive in all that God has done in you in Christ Jesus. It’s your month to authenticate [enact] to ensure while being assured, of God’s enabling in the Month OCTOBER – that by “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND” in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead, that blessedness will become your reality. 

This month October thus means, it’s your month to be EFFECTUAL [productive and result oriented], in your redemption rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. For it’s as you are “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND” in the grace in Christ Jesus, that your essence in the Kingdom plan, purpose and pursuit of God will then become tangible, reachable, liveable, lovable and of course, your reality. 

And by the knowledge and understanding of the entitled month context, it’s my earnest PRAYERS that you resolve to take a step of faith in the grace to ENACT the Month October theme – “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND”, for this is in order to live meaningfully and fulfilling in the commission mandate that’s about you and to us all – of being Earthly useful and Heavenly minded, in Christ Jesus Christ stead. Amen. 

Let me just refresh your mind in knowing something’s about Month OCTOBER; month October, is the TENTH month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars – and it’s the sixth of seven months to have a length of 31 days. In the northern hemisphere October is usually considered the second month of AUTUMN and is commonly associated with the season of SPRING in parts of the Southern Hemisphere, and AUTUMN in parts of the Northern Hemisphere, where it is the seasonal equivalent to April in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa. 

The Month October was originally the eighth month of the Roman calendar. And the name October, comes from the Latin word “OCTO” meaning eight. Later, it became the 10th month when January and February were added to the Calendar. And spiritually, the number “eight” is said to be a symbol of NEW BEGINNING signifying BLESSEDNESS which encompasses – WEALTH, PROSPERITY, PEACE and FERTILITY and more of such like. And month October is normally the time of the year when farmers harvest their crops – indicating productivity and abundance. That to me it’s important, such that, as we are “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND”, we can then ensure the assured BLESSEDNESS of God in Christ Jesus stead in our redemption. 

Therefore, as we take on a daily step of Faith through this month in an onward and upward trajectory, I want you to know that as you are “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND” in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead, you will see yourself thrive, not just survive, in His grace.  

And through the Month, as you follow along the teaching to explore on the theme by God’s enabling grace, you will come to know what and why the theme is so relevant for you in the now and all about God’s FULNESS in the theme; and in the cause of the expository teaching and preaching on the theme as entitled – “BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND” – may you find the enabling of God’s grace in our redemption, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

I PRAY you have an awesome blessedness in Christ Jesus stead, through the Month October. Amen. 

Blessed regards. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. [2] And be not conformed to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may prove what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God” Romans 12:1-2. 

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are CHANGED into the same image from GLORY TO GLORY, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” 2 Corinthians 3:18. 

“That ye PUT OFF concerning the former CONVERSATION [CONDUCT, BEHAVIOUR] the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; [23] and BE RENEWED IN THE SPIRIT OF YOUR MIND; [24] and that ye PUT ON the NEW MAN, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness” Ephesians 4:22-24. 

“And have PUT ON the NEW MAN, which is RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE after the image of him that CREATED him: [11] where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all” Colossians 3:10-11. 

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

“But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, [5] not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of REGENERATION, and RENEWING of the Holy Ghost” Titus 3:4-5. 

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW. [18] Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, [19] that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. [20] Now then, we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. [21] For He MADE Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might BECOME the righteousness of God in Him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21/NKJV.

WELCOME TO MONTH SEPTEMBER 2025: MONTH ENTITLED – PROSPERING YOUR SPIRIT-BEING FOR YOUR WHOLENESS!

“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your SOUL PROSPERS [SPIRITUALLY]” 3 John 1:2/Amplified.

You ARE specially WELCOME to Month SEPTEMBER 2025 which is themed, the Month of – “PROSPERING YOUR SPIRIT-BEING FOR YOUR WHOLENESS –
[TOTALITY]” – in Christ Jesus stead, in the grace provision of our God.

The Holy Writ do inform us that our God has BLESSED us in Christ Jesus while He REDEEMED us from SIN to RIGHTEOUSNESS. And His BLESSEDNESS is to ENRICH us and not to give us sorrow, pain or any form of side effects or bandages. And to being BLESSED of God is to be EMPOWERED to PROSPER and ACHIEVE purpose meaningfully in the grace. This thus indicates that the concept of PROSPERITY or PROSPERING, is because we’ve been BLESSED [EMPOWERED] of God, which is the consequence of our redemption rights and privileges in Christ Jesus. Amen. So, a default of BLESSEDNESS, that results to PROSPERITY in the grace is in the DNA of our justification in redemption.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE the promise of the Spirit through faith” Galatians 3:13-14.
 
“THE BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKETH RICH, and he ADDETH NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.
 
The Month theme thus indicates that it’s as we PROSPER in our SPIRIT-BEING in the grace, that’s when we can be able to ensure and assure our total being prospers accordingly [3 John 1:2]; and we are positioned with the wholeness default – and the wholeness default is about our triune being: spirit, soul and body. For we are by default through knowledge to share and partake in all that pertains to life and godliness in the grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“May grace (God’s favor) and peace (which is perfect well-being, all necessary good, all spiritual prosperity, and freedom from fears and agitating passions and moral conflicts) be multiplied to you in [the full, personal, precise, and correct] KNOWLEDGE of God and of Jesus our Lord. 3 For His DIVINE POWER has bestowed upon us ALL THINGS that [are requisite and suited] to LIFE and GODLINESS, through the [full, personal] KNOWLEDGE of Him Who CALLED us by and to His own glory and excellence (virtue) 4 By means of these He has BESTOWED on us His precious and exceedingly great promises, so that through them you may escape [by flight] from the moral decay (rottenness and corruption) that is in the world because of covetousness (lust and greed), and become SHARERS (PARTAKERS) of the DIVINE NATURE” 2 Peter 1:2-4/Amplified Classic Edition.
 
Know that Month SEPTEMBER is the ninth month of the year in the JULIAN and GREGORIAN calendars, and it’s the third of four months to have a length of 30 days, and the fourth of five months to have a length of fewer than 31 days. September in the Northern Hemisphere and March in the Southern Hemisphere are seasonal equivalent. And Month SEPTEMBER in the northern hemisphere usually considered the first month of autumn. For many, the month of September signals the end of summer, the beginning of autumn, and the start of a new school year. With respect to the calendar, September marks the beginning of the series of months named after their numerical position in the year.
 
Therefore, in this Month September, know that you have All it takes to make you BECOME in Christ Jesus as we’ve been endowed and endued with the enabling grace of God in the grace. So, make an intentional choice to ensure you Scripturally PROSPER your spirit-being for the good of your whole [total] being, for the WORD of God works and it’s alive today, to make it all possible for our now and tomorrow, as our God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.
 
So, in this Month September we will be exploring on how to ensure we PROSPER the [our] SPIRIT-BEING, in order to PROSPER also in other aspects of our doing life; and this is in ensuring and assuring our total being prospers in the grace. For Month SEPTEMBER – the ninth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars, can be summed up Scripturally in this wise:
 
It’s to reminds one of the Nine (9) Fruit of the Holy Spirit to develop and build up the Christian Faith CHARACTER, BEHAVIOURAL and CONDUCT enabling in the grace. [Galatians 5:22-25; 1 Timothy 3:15].
 
It’s to remind one of the Nine (9) Spiritual gifts of the Spirit to build up and give one that enabling grace of God to function in MINISTERIAL, SPIRITUAL and CIVIL [CIVILITY] demands in the grace. [1 Corinthians 12:7-11, 27-31; Romans 12:1-8].
 
It’s teaches us the essence of WHOLENESS and COMPLETENESS and FULFILLING and TOTALITY and MATURING, since the number nine [9] means PERFECTION in a scriptural sense. [1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12-13].
 
Welcome therefore to Month September, the month entitled – “PROSPERING YOUR SPIRIT-BEING FOR YOUR WHOLENESS [TOTALITY]” in life and godliness in the grace of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And do pray that by God’s enabling that we shall be exploring through the course of this month that you PROSPER in your spirit being to ensure and assure your total being prosperity in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
Blessed regards.

GREED AND COVETOUSNESS – “THE LOVE OF MONEY”

By Leave a Comment

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

“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.

Money (Finance) is a de facto medium of exchange. On its 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” on itself, is the ROOT of ALL EVIL.

Money is GOOD. It’s a great means of defence that answers and it’s answering man’s QUEST in doing life, especially when diligently, wisely and prudently obtained and expended without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation.

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 and enslaved by – THE LOVE OF MONEY – that’s obtained by GREED and COVETOUSNESS and such like:

  1. It causes WORRY: Lack of Sleep – sleepless moments when 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.

  1. It causes DISSATISFACTIONS: It allows greediness and covetousness to breed in all forms, thereby create discomfort and unhealthy sphere.

“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

  1. It causes TEMPTATION: It allows and leads to the breaking of SET RULES and REGULATIONS, even the STATUTORY 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.  21 To have respect of persons is not good: FOR  A PIECE OF BREAD THAT MAN WILL TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH TO BE RICH hath AN EVIL EYE, and considereth not that POVERTY shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:20-22.

“The TRUSTWORTHY person will get a RICH reward, but A PERSON WHO WANTS QUICK RICHES WILL GET INTO TROUBLE. 21 Showing partiality is never good, YET SOME WILL DO WRONG FOR A MERE PIECE OF BREAD. 22 GREEDY PEOPLE TRY TO GET RICH QUICK but don’t realize they’re headed for poverty” Proverbs 28:20 NLT.

Money is good in itself when it’s made to serve or be a servant and not as lord to any and 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 and for 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.

“But if anyone DOES NOT PROVIDE FOR HIS OWN, and especially for those of his HOUSEHOLD, he has DENIED THE FAITH and is WORSE THAN AN UNBELIEVER” 1 Timothy 5:8/NKJV

“WISDOM is good with an inheritance: and by it there is PROFIT to them that see the sun. 12 FOR WISDOM IS A DEFENCE, AND MONEY IS A DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY of KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM giveth LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:11-12.

“And now, dear brothers and sisters, we give you this command in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ: STAY AWAY FROM ALL BELIEVERS WHO LIVE IDLE LIVES AND DON’T FOLLOW THE TRADITION THEY RECEIVED FROM US. 7 For you know that you ought to IMITATE us. We were NOT IDLE when we were with you. 8 WE NEVER ACCEPTED FOOD FROM ANYONE WITHOUT PAYING FOR IT. We WORKED hard day and night so we would NOT BE A BURDEN to any of you. 9 We certainly had the right to ask you to feed us, but we wanted to give you an EXAMPLE to follow. 10 Even while we were with you, we gave you this command: “THOSE UNWILLING TO WORK WILL NOT GET TO EAT.” 11 Yet we hear that some of you are LIVING IDLE LIVES, REFUSING TO WORK AND MEDDLING IN OTHER PEOPLE’S BUSINESS. 12 We COMMAND such people and urge them in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to SETTLE DOWN AND WORK TO EARN THEIR OWN LIVING” 2 Thessalonians 3:6-12/NLT.

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!

“For I AM the Lord, I CHANGE not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed” Malachi 3:6

Some people thinks that BELIEVING in God and or not BELIEVING in God and or being doubtful if there’s God, will change the person of the sovereignty of God. Sorry my friend, that will not at all happen, if that’s your position – and it makes no difference at all about the sovereignty of God – for He CHANGES not and there’s no CONTROVERSY about Him, by what you hold or claims to hold about Him before or now.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of godliness: God was MANIFEST in the flesh, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 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 shows stupidity and foolishness as it’s written:

” The FOOL hath said in his heart, There is NO God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good” Psalms 14:1.

And to imagine if the called God can make you unique, exclusive, important and APPLAUDED and HYPE for whatsoever reason in your assumptions or conclusions shows pure ignorance and delusional in context because it’s deadly to position yourself to be something that you are not and will never be.

“And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country. 21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an ORATION unto them. 22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the VOICE of a god, and not of a man. 23 And immediately the angel of the Lord SMOTE him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost” Acts 12:20-23.

And if you don’t FEAR God, 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 to think or imagine otherwise about God – Luke 8:1-8 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 on how wealthy or poor 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 any alive, and then is your ANSWER to the giver of etenal 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 new to not BELIEVE in God; much more to disregard 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  will buy him access to God. He NEVER believe death can even get to his door steps. 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 and 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 find 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!

“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 group 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 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.

I make bold to challenge any, and also dare to any in the above paragraph written statement I have made and also to say to any now, that 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 that 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 their path of LIFE and GODLY LIVING; but may however satisfy the APPLAUD and HYPE of men for self gratifications, oppression and victimisation of an individual or people who refuses such inclination.

HEREIN ARE FEW REASONS BUT NOT LIMITED:

Firstly, the Holy Writ of Ephesians 1:3, thus indicates that each Born Again child of God is potentially BLESSED unconditionally in grace – 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 like.

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 amplifies 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, FOREKNOWN us, PREDESTINED us and GLORIFIED us in Christ Jesus stead.

And if we ARE what the scriptures says, we ARE in God in Christ Jesus stead, how dare people still saying they are either SEARCHING for their destiny or PURSUING their destiny in Christ Jesus.

And as such somebody must be RESPONSIBLE and be held ACCOUNTABLE to be their DESTINY HELPER or the HELPER to make them FULFIL their God given and assigned PURPOSE or PURPOSES. I have began to worry for some Christians in certain quarters whom I have seen making ENEMY and ENMITY 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 fulfilling 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 some Church members of 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 like 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. Amen.

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 fulfil 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.

“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

By Leave a Comment

GOD IS GOOD AND FAITHFUL: HE’S SURE AND TRUE TO ALL HIS PROMISES!“Let us HOLD FAST THE PROFESSION of our faith WITHOUT wavering; for He is FAITHFUL that promised” Hebrews 10:23.

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.

“. . . 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! . . .” Psalms 46:1-11.

BE STILL – for God CARES, and God LOVES you and wants you to BE STILL – in the MIDST of the storms and raging seas of life challenges and changing times, and especially if you are undergoing any right now or may likely undergo in the cause and course of doing life and living godly, in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

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”
