Be EMBOLDENED In The FAITH: There’s No Room For The COWARDICE In The GOSPEL!

FEAR captivates, it robs one of purpose, it belittles one, intimidates one, and enshrined the COWARDICE mindsets into one’s being. Then steals ones joy, kills ones vision and destroys ones path to become in LIFE and GRACE.

“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY or COWARDICE or FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER and of LOVE and of SOUND JUDGMENT and PERSONAL DISCIPLINE [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 AMPLIFIED.

Unlike Fear, FAITH pleases God, overcomes the WORLDS settings and it inspires, stimulates, empowers, strengthen and emboldened ones being in every way to thrive, live meaningfully, purposefully and fulfilling in LIFE and GRACE.

“Through FAITH we understand that the WORLDS were FRAMED BY THE WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:3, 6.

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

Suffix to know that Jesus Christ is Saviour, Lord and King OVER ALL, irrespective of stands today. Hence, been a coward instead of been emboldened of the GOSPEL to make a difference in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament, is unwarranted.

“. . . 36 The WORD which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ—HE IS LORD OF ALL— . . .” Acts 10:34-37 NKJV.

Being emboldened in FAITH is the only PATH to ensure TRIUMPH and VICTORY over the current climate of human limitations in the affairs of DOING LIFE and LIVING Godly in Christ Jesus stead.

“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.

It’s time to say to oneself – IF GOD SAID IT, I BELIEVE IT AND THAT SETTLES IT. Just as in Bible days, they overcome him the enemy and cohorts by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB – Jesus Christ, and by their FAITH TESTIMONY and refused to compromised their FAITH even unto death possibility.

Today – are you EMBOLDENED IN YOUR FAITH in Christ Jesus? Or in the bondage of religion by belonging to a renowned denominational Church? Can you stand up TALL for your FAITH in Christ Jesus today? Which rules in you – FEAR or FAITH? JUST TO LET YOU KNOW – THERE’S NO MIDDLE GROUND!

Make your FAITH in Christ Jesus VISIBLE to give HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to humanity in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament that has implications spiritually, physically and economically.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the FEELING OF OUR INFIRMITIES; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come BOLDLY unto the THRONE OF GRACE, that we may OBTAIN MERCY, and FIND GRACE TO HELP IN TIME OF NEED” Hebrews 4:14-16.

“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.

“For ye HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF BONDAGE AGAIN TO FEAR; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God . . . 19 For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the creature waiteth for the MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS of God” Romans 8:15-16, 19.

“For God hath not GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind”  2 Timothy 1:7.

“Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth BOLDLY, to make known the mystery of the GOSPEL, 20 for which I am an AMBASSADOR in bonds: that therein I may speak BOLDLY, as I OUGHT to speak” Ephesians 6:18-20.

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by THE WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY; and they LOVED NOT THEIR LIVES UNTO THE DEATH” Revelation 12:11.

BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES

BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES: BE AN OVERCOMER – COMMANDER – IN YOUR WORLDS!

“Behold, I have given him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.

We live today in a very challenging and difficult times – Individuals, families and collective society are facing all sorts – both privately and publicly in thoughts or and indeed, to various segments of wants and needs. And the height of trials, temptations and seduction are increasing and mounting up the more especially for the Believer in Christ Jesus – and it’s simply because the enemy and cohorts, knows their days and times are numbered and time is running out on them. But do you as a Believer in Christ Jesus, KNOWS and UNDERSTANDS THE TIMES that you are currently? Do you as a Believer in Christ Jesus stead, do UNDERSTAND your timeline just as the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR and what you OUGHT to do to LEAD and to be the COMMANDER? 1 Chronicles 12:32.

“And of the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR, which were men that had UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES, to KNOW what Israel OUGHT to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and ALL THEIR BRETHREN were at their COMMANDMENT”

“Behold, I have given him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

Some of the trials, temptations and challenges tends to make one go along with the flow, even when you know full well, it leads to sin and sinful behaviour, while others events are obvious that it may or will cost you your career, leadership, marriage, relationship, opportunity, integrity, position, shame, embarrassment and such like. Yet the appetite for the craziness because everyone is doing it or it appeals to you specially or it’s an avenue of meeting and solving the problems and difficulties you are in, even when it’s obvious it contradict the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH that sets one free indeed and to know to uphold in the face of any heights of such trials and temptations.

May I announce to you that there is an enabling grace in God to say NO. I mean to say again NO and NO and to sound it loud – NOOOOOOOOOO (is there an English word as such a loud NO, I don’t think so, just an expression). It thus mean that, there is an enabling of God in grace to overcome the little and great height challenges in your worlds of doing life and living godly. Sometimes you need to run and in some to flee from every appearance of that which defile the enabling of God in your life.

The ENEMY and COHORTS knows your WORTH. Do you know your WORTH? And they have prized and price tagged on you. Do you know God’s prized and price tagged on you in REDEMPTION just as He said of Job (Job 1:6-12), I KNOW him and of Abraham (Genesis 18:17-19), I KNOW him. Can God says he KNOWS you, knowing you will uphold your being in Him by the enabling grace He has given to you to say NO, or RUN or FLEE when it’s obviously necessary that your POSSIBILITIES by God is about to be jeopardize by self, the world and probably the devil and cohorts. You know the drill, yeah, you know the drill. Take a STAND in grace today. Romans 5:1-2; Ephesians 6:10-14; 1 Peter 5:8-10.

I make bold to say that you are a World made Overcomer in Christ Jesus. The default is in you in Christ Jesus stead to face trials, temptations and such like and still OVERCOME. James 1:2-8; 1 Corinthians 10:13-15. You can make it a reality and possibility by Believing and acting accordingly in FAITH. Romans 5:1-2; Hebrews 11:6. This is the VICTORY that helps you overcomes your worlds of doing life and living godly – it’s your FAITH on the Scriptural truth to say NO or RUN or FLEE when necessary for your good and the good of others especially too, who looks up to you to ensure TESTIMONY of GRACE and TRUTH in our God. Revelation 12:11. Revelation 19:10.

I pray today that you be emboldened and endeavour to ensure that the enabling grace of God within you works for you to be and remain the OVERCOMER and VICTORIOUS, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and TRIUMPHANT Believer of God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. (1 Corinthians 15:57; Romans 8:37; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 John 5:4-5).

Have an awesome day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK.

“There hath NO TEMPTATION taken you but such as is COMMON to man: but God is FAITHFUL, who will not SUFFER you to be tempted ABOVE that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, FLEE from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say” 1 Corinthians 10:13-15.

DARE TO SAY NO WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTERS

By Leave a Comment

DARE TO SAY NO WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTERS: IT’S AN ATTRIBUTE OF GRACE – YOU NEED NOT REGRET OR BE APOLOGETIC – IN SAYING A NO!

THANKS BUT “NO” THANKS – Is that too hard to say or make sometimes? Yeah – in majority of times especially in sentimental cases when you are not PRINCIPLE in matters of LIFE and GODLY LIVING, you will struggle to say the “NO” needed to keep you safe and free from bondage and entanglement of any sorts and kinds. Many lives on regrets today for not rising up to the occasion to say a big honest “NO” and save their day and days ahead of time.

Thus, meaning, you can fall for anything and everything, for not having a set PRINCIPLE based on the WORD of God that keeps you RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for self-worth in Christ Jesus stead from the test and tastes of this life that is there to lure one away to an unpleasant and unpalatable position.

James 1:2-8, makes it known and understandable – that to be tempted or tested or tried is not a sin, but to let sentiments and prejudice cause you to give in to that which you are being tempted or tested about, will make you to have sin and become a PREY and VICTIM of your circumstances instead of a VICTOR in wise decision. And unfortunately, that is of your own making, in not saying emphatically a “NO”, knowing that God does not tempt any man to sin – nonetheless to break His WORD for any sentiments and prejudice – James 1:13-15.

As a child of God, if you must be strong and fortified in life and faith and stay steadfast in Christ Jesus stead, you must know and understand when to say “NO” boldly and means it when your right of ensuring God’s WORD in your life has been violated and legislated by any person, irrespective of the person life stands and status. More and especially in commitments that makes you small or smaller or to derail from the truth, than what God has done in you in Christ Jesus; and also, matters that subtract you or from you, that divides you, decreases and limits you; and matters that will not add, multiply and increase you in life and godly living.

There are cohorts of Satan outworking in our place of doing life – Home, Church, Shopping Centres, Market Places, Work Places, Business and Governmental Places, Political Places and Contract Signing Places and such like, that you must put a guard against otherwise you be PARTAKER of their intent and VICTIM of regret for not saying the “NO” instead of the “YES” you gave by word or actioned in kind. An emboldened PRINCIPLE must be upheld in our day to day life in this world, otherwise you will live a life of fear, intimidation, guilt, shame, inferiority and regret in not saying “NO” to the divers lustful temptations that appears before you now and then – James 1:13-15; 4:1-3; Proverbs 4:23. There’s an enabling grace within you to say “NO” in the light of the scripture – Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

Being EMBOLDENED to say “NO” when it MATTERS, it’s an attributes of God’s grace in you. It saves you from troubles and all forms of regrets; and then heals, delivers, secures, directs, strengthens, equips, empowers; and does many more such like attributes of graciousness and gracefulness, in one’s act of doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

It’s time not to fall traps of sentiments that the ENEMY and COHORTS in crafty act will use to lure you out of FAITH through FEARS into things you know that you will not normally say “YES” to which deserves a big fat “NO” answer at such moment of presentation.

DARE TO SAY NO WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTERS – IT’S AN ATTRIBUTE OF GRACE – YOU NEED NOT REGRET – SAYING A NO TO ANY – NO MATTER THEIR STANDS AND STATUS IN LIFE.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For THE GRACE OF GOD HAS APPEARED THAT OFFERS SALVATION TO ALL PEOPLE. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT and GODLY LIVES IN THIS PRESENT AGE, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.” Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

“But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 But let your ‘YES’ BE ‘YES,’ AND YOUR ‘NO,’ ‘NO.’ For whatever is more than these is from the EVIL ONE” Matthew 5:34-37 (NKJV)

“But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “YES” BE “YES,” AND YOUR “NO,” “NO,” lest you fall into judgment” James 5:12 (NKJV).

“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY or COWARDICE or FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal DISCIPLINE [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified).

“For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—WAS NOT YES AND NO, BUT IN HIM WAS YES. 20 FOR ALL THE PROMISES OF GOD IN HIM ARE YES, AND IN HIM AMEN, to the glory of God through us. 21 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, 22 who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee” 2 Corinthians 1:19-22 (NKJV).

“No temptation has OVERTAKEN you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, Who WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO BE TEMPTED BEYOND WHAT YOU ARE ABLE, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV).

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY – NO – When It Matters

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

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

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

You don’t have to put yourself in a crossroad to swear or take an oath to prove your point of inability – you owe nobody an apology of what you can or cannot. Be truthful to yourself in God and be EMBOLDENED to say NO – NAY, to any unwelcome demand, just as you can say

YES – YEA, in ALL matters of DOING life, this will help to enhance your today and tomorrow in GODLINESS without feeling guilty – 1 Timothy 4:7-8.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

SELAH – PAUSE and THINK!

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Emphasis Mine).

“Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black. 37 But let your COMMUNICATION be, YEA, YEA; NAY, NAY: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil” Matthew 5:36-37 (Emphasis Mine).

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

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

Make your FAITH in Christ Jesus VISIBLE to give HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to humanity in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament that has implications spiritually, physically and economically.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the FEELING OF OUR INFIRMITIES; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come BOLDLY unto the THRONE OF GRACE, that we may OBTAIN MERCY, and FIND GRACE TO HELP IN TIME OF NEED” Hebrews 4:14-16.

“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.

“For ye HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF BONDAGE AGAIN TO FEAR; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. . . 19 For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the creature waiteth for the MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS of God” Romans 8:15-16, 19.

“For God hath not GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:7.

“Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth BOLDLY, to make known the mystery of the GOSPEL, 20 for which I am an AMBASSADOR in bonds: that therein I may speak BOLDLY, as I OUGHT to speak” Ephesians 6:18-20.

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by THE WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY; and they LOVED NOT THEIR LIVES UNTO THE DEATH” Revelation 12:11.

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

We live in a time wherein most people have indebted themselves or found themselves at crossroads because they wants to DO God, please planet earth, and make everyone happy at their inadequacies and to save face from offending and to ensure their pride in pain. Enough of that cowardice ACT of life.

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

You don’t have to put yourself in a crossroad to swear or take an oath to prove your point of inability. Be truthful to yourself in God and EMBOLDENED to say NO – NAY to any unwelcome demand, just as you can say YES – YEA, in ALL matters of DOING life also to enhance your today and tomorrow in GODLINESS – 1 Timothy 4:7-8.

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

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

May I enjoin you to know that the Scriptures indicates that the justified in Christ Jesus shall live by their own FAITH in God through Him. So let nobody makes you through pressure to be their ANSWER and especially to their so called DESTINY HELPER, to their PRAYERS when you are not God, knowing you are unable to fit into that shoe as been pressured.

Don’t DO God or be a godfather or answer in DEBT. Endeavour to say NO without feeling guilty or ashamed in meeting someone dear needs. Live by your FAITH as led by the Holy Spirit through God’s WORD in all capacity of life matters. Live and help within your FAITH and not in any pressure to do anything and become incapacitated for others good. That’s unscriptural.

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

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

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

SELAH – PAUSE and THINK!

DARE To Say NO When NECESSARY

By Leave a Comment

DARE TO SAY NO – When It’s TIMELY NECESSARY And MATTERS: It Is An ATTRIBUTE Of GRACE – You Need Not Regret or Be Apologetic – BY SAYING A NO!

THANKS BUT “NO” THANKS – Is that too hard to say or make sometimes? Yeah – in majority of times especially in sentimental cases when you are UNPRINCIPLE in matters of LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Meaning, falling for anything and everything for not having a set PRINCIPLED based on the WORD of God that keeps you RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for self-worth in Christ Jesus stead.

James 1:2-8, makes it known and understandable – that to be tempted or tested or tried is not a sin, but to let sentiments cause you to give in to that which you are being tempted or tested about or with, will make you to have or make a sin and become a PREY and VICTIM instead of a VICTOR. And that is of your own making in not saying emphatically a “NO” – knowing that God does not tempt any man to sin – to break His WORD – James 1:13-15; 1 Corinthians 10:13.

As a child of God, if you must be strong and fortified in life and faith and stay steadfast in Christ Jesus stead, you must know and understand when to say “NO” boldly; and to mean it when your right of ensuring God’s WORD in your life is been violated by any person, irrespective of the life stands. More and especially, in commitments that makes you small or smaller than what God has done in you in Christ Jesus; matters that subtract you or from you; matters that divides you, decreases you and limits you; and in matters that will not add, multiply and increase you in everyway in life and godly living.

There are cohorts of Satan outwork and out there in our place of doing life – home, Church, shopping centres, market places, work places, business and governmental places, political arena, contract signing places and such likes that you must put guard and guide against, otherwise you be PARTAKER of their intent and VICTIM of regret for not saying the “NO” but instead of the “YES” you gave by word or actioned in kind. An emboldened PRINCIPLE for responsibility and accountability must be upheld in our day to day life in this world, otherwise you will live a life of fear, intimidation, guilt, shame, inferiority and regret, in not saying “NO” to the divers lustful temptations that appears before you now and then – James 1:13-15; 4:1-3.

Just know again and again, that there’s an enabling grace within you to say “NO” – no matter the circumstances and situations that befalls you in cause of doing life and godly living.

Being EMBOLDENED to say “NO” when it MATTERS, it’s an attributes of God’s grace in you. It saves from troubles and then heals, delivers, secures, directs, strengthens, equips, empowers; and does many more such likes attributes in one’s LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

It’s time not to fall traps of sentiments that the ENEMY and COHORTS in crafty act will use to lure you out of FAITH through FEARS into things you know, you will not normally say “YES” to which deserves a big fat “NO” answer.

DARE TO SAY NO WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTERS – IT’S AN ATTRIBUTE OF GRACE – YOU NEED NOT REGRET – SAYING A NO!

“For THE GRACE OF GOD HAS APPEARED THAT OFFERS SALVATION TO ALL PEOPLE. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT and GODLY LIVES IN THIS PRESENT AGE, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.” Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

“But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 But let your ‘YES’ BE ‘YES,’ AND YOUR ‘NO,’ ‘NO.’ For whatever is more than these is from the EVIL ONE” Matthew 5:34-37 (NKJV)
