MARITAL BLESSEDNESS – A CALL OF GOD TO INHERIT A BLESSING 

By Leave a Comment

MARITAL BLESSEDNESS – A CALL OF GOD TO INHERIT A BLESSING: AND GOD BLESSED THEM AND YOURS IS BLESSED! 

“Likewise, ye WIVES, be in SUBJECTION [SUBMISSIVE] to your OWN husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be WON by the CONVERSATION [CONDUCT] of the wives . . . 7 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. 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 . . . 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. 

I don’t know how you see marriage or your marriage – whether you see it as BLESSED and a BLESSING or CURSED or a CURSE or a MISTAKE; but I want you to know that MARRIAGE is a marital BLESSEDNESS irrespective of the challenges and difficult times you have or may be going through right now in your relationship. Your marriage and marital life is how you’ve rated it by the measures you’ve used to determine and to own it – be it good or bad. However, all things work for the good of marriage that’s within God’s purpose and plan. For marriage is a call of grace to fulfil purpose. And it’s only when PURPOSE is misunderstood and misappropriated that ABUSE sets in. Get to know your marital purpose today and reset your focus in doing life and living godly in the grace. That’s how to live daily and be fulfilled purposefully, in the midst of all good or bad challenging times. 

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes ALL THINGS TO WORK TOGETHER [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are CALLED according to His PLAN and PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/Amplified. 

“. . . 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 3:1-12. 

Marriage, in God’s design and perspective, is BLESSED and a BLESSING – and yours is BLESSED, not CURSED or a CURSE, nor a MISTAKE, in any context or perception. And you must know and understand that to being BLESSED, means to be EMPOWERED to – succeed, achieve, enrich, thrive, become, prosper and such like in the context of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. And you have an inherent DNA of God’s gracious empowerment to make your marriage work and be fulfilled and be meaningfully purposeful by God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“THE BLESSING of the Lord BRINGS [true] RICHES, And He ADDS NO SORROW to it [for it comes as a BLESSING from God]” Proverbs 10:22/Amplified. 

“BLESSED and worthy of praise be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with EVERY SPIRITUAL BLESSING in the heavenly realms in Christ” Ephesians 1:3/Amplified. 

Marriage in God’s eye is BLESSED and a BLESSING in His BLESSEDNESS; and it is considered as a special CALL of God for all who dare choose to get involved into it by FAITH in Him, in order to INHERIT the marital BLESSING of His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. For God BLESSED them – [male and female] – Adam and Eve, in His first marital BLESSEDNESS to set out His intent to all of mankind. And His intent is for all to enjoy the same-like BLESSEDNESS as we do life and live godly to fulfil His call [commission] and assignment [purpose] in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Hence the scripture says, He that finds a wife finds a good thing and obtain favourable blessedness from the Lord God. 

“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 1:27-28. 

“He who FINDS a [true and faithful] WIFE finds a GOOD thing And OBTAINS FAVOR and APPROVAL from the Lord. [Prov 19:14; 31:10]” Proverbs 18:22/Amplified. 

“House and WEALTH are the INHERITANCE from fathers, But a WISE, UNDERSTANDING, and SENSIBLE wife is [a GIFT and Blessing] from the Lord” Proverbs 19:14/Amplified. 

“An EXCELLENT [VIRTUOUS] woman [one who is spiritual, capable, intelligent, and virtuous], who is he who can find her? Her VALUE is more PRECIOUS than jewels and her worth is far above rubies or pearls” Proverbs 31:10/Amplified. 

And if you want God to make you BECOME in the grace, by being blessed in the path of the process of your marital journey, you must as a matter of principle, be intentional and pragmatic to see marriage the way God sees it in His context; and God sees marriage in His context, as a calling to INHERIT His BLESSING [BLESSEDNESS] in the grace – and that’s, as PURE and SIMPLE. It’s either you choose to see it from God’s perceptive and context, or you remain stuck in your own self-made, world-made, and man-made delusion. For God CREATED and MADE marriage, and His way and path it shall be for now, tomorrow and always, for all who believes in His context in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

And you have to live  by FAITH in order to blossom, refresh and rejuvenate in this marital BLESSEDNESS; and if you must be victorious and triumphant in every way of doing life and living godly, in order to ensure that God’s enabling grace is at work to enable you overcome the challenging and difficult times that comes along with marriage, you must set your default to faith in God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. It’s by faith that you can ensure the practicality and activities to overcome the state of things in this present depraved world system. 

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Romans 1:16-17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38). 

“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. 

“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 11:6. 

I want you to know full well, that God will always COMMEND what He COMMANDS. He won’t break His WORD that He has taken an OATH to authenticate on the IMMUTABILITY of His counsel. For He BLESSED them – male and female – that they might share in His GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. 

“Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the IMMUTABILITY OF HIS COUNSEL, CONFIRMED it by an OATH: 18 that by two IMMUTABLE things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: 19 which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which entereth into that within the veil” Hebrews 6:17-19. 

Your marriage is BLESSED – knowingly and unknowingly. And it’s not about you, but about Him, who had MADE MARRIAGE; and it’s by Him only also that it works, irrespective of any of your feelings and sentiments and prejudice about marriage and God, in all perspectives. I do pray that your marriage will enjoy God’s BLESSEDNESS in the grace and become a living blessing to others in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“The Lord BLESS thee, and keep thee: 25 the Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: 26 the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace” Numbers 6:24-26. 

It’s my utmost wishes that you stay married and that your marriage being BLESSED may flourish, rejuvenate and blossom as in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in life and grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“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 1:27-28.

“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 3:9-12.

YOU ARE CROWNED AND BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING 

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE CROWNED AND BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING: DON’T LIVE LESS IN CHRIST JESUS IN THE GRACE! 

“You CROWN THE YEAR WITH YOUR GOODNESS, AND YOUR PATHS DRIP WITH ABUNDANCE. 12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, And the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain; They shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13. NKJV 

To being BLESSED in God’s BLESSEDNESS, is to be EMPOWERED by God’s grace to SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, THRIVE, BECOME and such like the MORE, in every venture and endeavour of doing life and living godly, ensuring FULFILMENT through a gracious PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. 

I want you to know full well, that in Christ Jesus, you are CROWNED AND BLESSED of God to be a BLESSING. And unlike the OLD TESTAMENT BLESSEDNESS that was woven UNDER an “IF” CONDITIONALITY as by the holy writ of Deuteronomy 28:1-15 and in other same like Scriptures of the OLD TESTAMENT, the NEW CREATION BLESSEDNESS of the NEW TESTAMENT in Christ Jesus, is not based on CONDITIONALITY “IF”, but on Christ Jesus stead IN US, as per Ephesians 1:3 and such like Scriptures of the epistles. 

“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. 

“And it shall come to pass, IF THOU SHALT HEARKEN diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and ALL THESE BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF THOU SHALT hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God . . . 9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, IF THOU shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways. 13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; IF THAT THOU hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them . . .” Deuteronomy 28:1-15. 

Herein are some of the reasons but not limited for your BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, as the NEW CREATION of the NEW TESTAMENT: 

  • It is a DONE promised blessing of God in our redemption in Christ Jesus. Hence, the New Creation Blessing is UNCONDITIONAL. Unlike the Old Testament wherein you are CONDITIONED to fulfil certain obligations to attain it or have it. Hence let no man ask you to pay some charges or fullfil some obligations before you can ascertain God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 
  • It’s the blessing that’s free of fear, sorrow, pain, envy, jealousy and anguish, but always enriching, assuring and ensuring. So, there’s no reason to be afraid of God’s BLESSEDNESS. And nobody should then threaten you of God’s promises to you beside them. Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-4; 3 John 2. 
  • God’s BLESSING is not a FEELING; it is in the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING – that’s the only way you can BE a BLESSING too. And it’s always an INTENTIONAL choice plan to have us BLESSED in His BLESSEDNESS.  
  • God’s BLESSING is not a car, property, family, money, empire of business and more; but the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS of God that MAKES and ENABLES to become a reality, the things you need like – car, house, business, money, family health, and more; the BLESSED ENABLER makes the things you need to come into reality WITHOUT SWEAT, EFFORTLESS, GRACEFULLY and GRACIOUSLY. It is such to note that you are not limited by the things you need or have, but you are GOVERNED by the enabler. The BLESSED enabler, MAKES you ABOVE ONLY otherwise you will go down south or downhill, when the alternative is your enabler. 
  • And God’s BLESSING KEEPS you in His CHURCH or PRESENCE and enables one to go from strength unto strength. Meaning, God’s BLESSING doesn’t take you away from His presence or Church as we’ve seen many BACKSLIDE from FAITH for having some little tokens of money or car or property and more which they considered to be a blessing, which unfortunately for them are the results of the BLESSEDNESS and not the BLESSEDNESS. 
  • God’s BLESSING for us in His BLESSEDNESS does not fade, deteriorate or go valueless and worthless and in any such like degradation, hence it’s not treasured as Car, landed property, house, material and such like that wear out with time. So, when you have any material items as Car, house and such like for example, it is the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS called the BLESSEDNESS of God that is the Blessing and not the car. God’s BLESSEDNESS upon you provides you the car as a tool to achieve purpose on earth. And because God’s BLESSEDNESS is in the HEAVENLY PLACES, meaning spiritual endowment, thieves, robbers and such like enemy and cohorts, can’t break-in because there are kept in the heavenly places where Christ Jesus is seated, you and I are seated at the safe and secured right hand of God. Ephesians 1:3, 20; Ephesians 2:6; Matthew 6:19-21. 
  • Do you know that you are BLESSED? If yes, then stop running around as one without KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. I am Blessed – I know It. You are Blessed – I know it quite well too. 
  • And much more importantly, your marriage is BLESSED and not a CURSE. You can now stop this unfavourable notion of holding and looking at your spouse as an agent of CURSE and know to give up the worry syndrome, knowing that being BLESSED maritally by God, you cannot be externally cursed to make you live in fear. Hence you need to stop all those notions that someone else is there cursing your marriage and such is more supreme than the BLESSEDNESS of God upon your marriage. Always know that you will become what you believe – either God’s BLESSEDNESS or Man-Made make belief or your make up dogmas to suit sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. 1 Peter 3:8-12. 

Having now known some of the reasons above, therefore, go on in grace, speaking FORTH who you ARE as being BLESSED of God and not CURSED; and going forth in such might in Christ Jesus stead to do the needful in PRINCIPLE and DILIGENCE, as God begins to actualise and unveil into reality your BLESSEDNESS in Him in Christ Jesus. 

THEREFORE, IN POSSIBILITIES WITH – THE TIMELESS GOD – KNOW FULL WELL THAT YOU ARE CROWN BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING – DON’T LIVE LESS IN CHRIST JESUS. AMEN. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH MEDITATING IN CONTEXT: 

“. . . 5 BLESSED is the man whose STRENGTH is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them. 6. Who passing through the VALLEY of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools. 7 They go from STRENGTH to STRENGTH, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God. . .” (Psalms 84). 

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HATH BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ . . 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own RIGHT HAND in the HEAVENLY PLACES . . . “ Ephesians 1:3, 15-23. 

“. . . 6 and hath RAISED us up together, and made us SIT together in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ Jesus . . .” Ephesians 2:1-10. 

“Lay not up for yourselves TREASURES upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where THIEVES break through and steal: 20 but lay up for yourselves TREASURES in HEAVEN, where NEITHER moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where THIEVES do not break through nor steal: 21 for where your TREASURE is, there will your heart be also” Matthew 6:19-21. 

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES RICH, and he ADDS NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22. 

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a GREAT nation, and I will BLESS thee, and MAKE thy name GREAT; and thou shalt be a BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3. 

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore THAT THEY WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED BEFORE THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they WHICH BE OF FAITH ARE BLESSED with faithful Abraham . . . 13 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 . . . 26 For ye ARE ALL THE CHILDREN of God BY FAITH in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is NEITHER Jew nor Greek, there is NEITHER bond nor free, there is NEITHER male nor female: FOR YE ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST JESUS. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s SEED, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. 

“Thou CROWNEST THE YEAR with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness. 12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13. 

“And it shall come to pass, IF THOU SHALT HEARKEN diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and ALL THESE BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF THOU SHALT hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. 3 BLESSED shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. 4 BLESSED shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 5 BLESSED shall be thy basket and thy store. 6 BLESSED shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out . . .15 But it shall come to pass, IF THOU WILT not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee” Deuteronomy 28:1-15. 

“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. 

“. . . 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.

MARRIAGE – A COVENANT OF GRACE AND BLESSEDNESS 

By Leave a Comment

MARRIAGE – A COVENANT OF GRACE AND BLESSEDNESS: A CALLING TO INHERIT A BLESSING AND FULFIL GOD’S PURPOSE! 

“Whoso FINDETH a wife FINDETH A GOOD THING, and obtaineth FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:22 

Your MARRIAGE is BLESSED and not CURSE – that’s when you see [envision] it from the EYES of the SCRIPTURES and not from the EYES of MAN-MADE TRADITION, SECTARIANISM and DENOMINATIONALISM and such like. For the Scripture says from the beginning that God intentionally BLESSED them – male and female. Marriage is BLESSED and EMPOWERED with divine PURPOSE, and none living within the Scriptural marital stand of God is cursed. It’s your choice to believe God’s word or to allow circumstances and society and others to define your stand in marriage – knowingly and unknowingly. And eventually, you will become whom and what you believe in marital context and content. 

“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. 

For marriage is a divine institution of grace; and much more, a CALLING of God in Christ Jesus stead, for all who believe in the divine setting to INHERIT the BLESSING [FAVOUR] of God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus; and the couples, as heirs of God, can share the blessedness of the common grace of life and godliness; and whose PRAYERS are and can be effectual without obstruction and unhindered by any means as they live unreservedly and intentionally in scriptural consciousness. 

“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 SYNCHRONISED 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 actualise your promised favour and to inherit your blessed BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

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 everything. 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.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: LIVING BLESSED 

By Leave a Comment

GOD IS FAITHFUL: LIVING BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING – IS PART OF OUR HIGHER CALLING! 

“Now the Lord had SAID unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, AND I WILL BLESS THEE, AND MAKE THY NAME GREAT; AND THOU SHALT BE A BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that BLESS thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3. 

To be BLESSED and living a BLESSED life in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead, is to be EMPOWERED in God’s grace to SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, THRIVE, BECOME and such like; and more so, it’s to live MEANINGFULLY and PURPOSEFULLY in every venture and endeavour of life with FULFILMENT, through a gracious and graceful plan, purpose and pursuit in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“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. 

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES RICH, and he ADDS NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22. 

Be assured for certainty, that is – knowingly and unknowingly – that you are – BLESSED TO BE A BLESSING, and it’s for the following but not limited REASONS in being BLESSED in the BLESSEDNESS of God are you in these contextual regards: 

  •  It is a DONE promised blessing of God in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. 

 

  •  It’s THE BLESSING that’s always enriching, assuring and ensuring – that’s free of fear, sorrow, pain, envy, jealousy, anguish and such like. 

 

  •  The God’s BLESSING is not in a FEELING; it is in the PERCEIVING – that’s of the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING – and that’s the only way you can BE a BLESSING too. 

 

  •  The God’s BLESSING is not the car, property, money, empire of business and such like more; The God’s BLESSING is the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS of God that MAKES the things you need possible and to come into reality – effortlessly, gracefully and graciously. Such needs may be like the car, house, business, money, health, and such like more. 

 

  •  And the God’s BLESSING keeps one in His Church or Presence; and it enables one to go from strength unto strength. Meaning, God’s BLESSING doesn’t take you away from His presence or His Church as we’ve seen many BACKSLIDE from FAITH, just for having some little tokens of money, cars, properties and such like the more, and earnestly consider them BLESSINGS, which is rather unfortunate. 

Therefore, I say as emboldened in Christ Jesus stead, that, I am BLESSED of God – and I know It; I know also that you are BLESSED of God, in Christ Jesus stead, and I hope you know it quite well too as I do now and always in consciousness. 

Finally, I ask and say – DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD? If yes, then stop running around as one without KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. Live and walk in wisdom to ENSURE this ASSURED enabling of God, in Christ Jesus stead becomes tangible and in reality, in your path of doing life and living godly. Amen… 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Brethren, I count not myself to have APPREHENDED: but this one thing I do, FORGETTING those things which are behind, and REACHING FORTH unto those things which are before, 14 I PRESS toward the mark for the PRIZE of the HIGH CALLING of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as be PERFECT, BE THUS MINDED: and if in any thing ye be OTHERWISE MINDED, God shall REVEAL even this unto you” Philippians 3:13-15. 

“. . . 5 BLESSED is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them. 6. Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools. 7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God. . .” (Psalms 84). 

“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. 

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES RICH, and he ADDS NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22. 

“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 . . .26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29. 

“Now the Lord had SAID unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, AND I WILL BLESS THEE, AND MAKE THY NAME GREAT; AND THOU SHALT BE A BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that BLESS thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3.

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.

A BLESSED DAY – MAKE IT YOURS

By 1 Comment

A BLESSED DAY – MAKE IT YOURS: YOU ARE BLESSED – ENACT IT BY THE WORD AS A WORD DOER!

“But be ye DOERS of the word, and not HEARERS only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a HEARER of the WORD, and not a DOER, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a DOER of the work, this man shall be BLESSED in his DEED” James 1:22-25.

What is this life? How much is your life worth to you? Have you ever thought of not waking up to see your desired dream and aspirations materialise under your watch?

Have you ever paused and given a thought to your life that there’s no amount of money that can buy your today? I mean, that you slept and woke up into a New day that God has made for you to rejoice and be glad in it – and that it’s a gifted Day, at no charge or cost which many didn’t wake up to see – and their dreams and aspirations are no more to be executed as they thought about it previously. Do you know that no amount of money and wealth can justify your life and your day outside God’s providence? And your day in God is BLESSED because of God’s essence in upholding His bargain in His word of promise to you and I? Have you taken time today to make a word discovery of your today for your recovery in today and tomorrow? SELAH- PAUSE AND THINK!

“This is the DAY the Lord has MADE; We will REJOICE and be GLAD in it” Psalms 118:24) NKJV.

“Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”; 14 whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. FOR WHAT IS YOUR LIFE? It is even a VAPOR that APPEARS for a LITTLE TIME and then VANISHES away. 15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.” 16 But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17 Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin” James :13-17/NKJV.

“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” Psalms 49:6-9.

That’s why I am asking you – Are You Doing The WORD Today? Are you a WORD DOER? Know full well that – to be BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED to – THRIVE, SUCCEED, BECOME, ACHIEVE and FULFIL. It’s not how much eloquently you can talk that changes your world and the worlds about you, but how much you can DO to bring about the DIFFERENCE in you and others by the WORD.

The scriptures of James 1:22-25 indicates that only the DOERS of what they HEAR of the WORD are BLESSED in their deeds. This is how Jesus in humanity exemplifies it in life and ministry. He will DO then TEACH, or TEACH then DO. He knows the effectual power of DOING to exemplify what he’s about to talk and the efficacy of DOING what He has talked about.

“. . . Jesus began both to DO and TEACH,  2 until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:  3 to whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God” Acts 1:1-3.

It’s time to step into your worlds with the intent to be a DOER of the WORD of God in order to have the enabling to BECOME in LIFE and GODLINESS – 2 Peter 1:2-4. DOING the WORD would create the atmosphere you want to see and enjoy. Jesus DID, He had it. You can also make your worlds a better place today.

Be A DOER Of The WORD – You Will Be BLESSED Indeed.

BE BLESSED AS YOU PONDER OVER IT.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

THE BELIEVER’S MARRIAGE IN THE GRACE

By Leave a Comment

THE BELIEVER’S MARRIAGE IN THE GRACE: IT’S A BLESSED MARRIAGE!

“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 3:9.

The scripture declares that He that finds a wife, finds a BLESSED [good, precious, gracious, lovely, admirable etc] thing and is qualified to obtain FAVOUR [BLESSEDNESS] from the Lord. What an incredible scriptural endowment and enduement upon the Believing marriage couple in the grace. And it’s simply because they are purposefully CALLED into the marriage to INHERIT a BLESSING as 1 Peter 3:9 enjoins. That’s why every believing couple in the grace should raise their heads up, shoulders high and on their highest heels of faith, because THE BELIEVER’S MARRIAGE is BLESSED in the grace. That’s why you must daily and continuously speak forth healthy and gracious words to your relationship as Jesus do speak forth while in humanity [Luke 4:22]. You can’t be speaking cursed words and swear words and regrettable words to your spouse in the grace and want the blessedness of God to be materialised, actualised and be fruitful at the same time in the grace. You must be intentional and pragmatic to speak forth healthy and gracious words of faith, hope and love to your spouse to keep the blessedness, thereby over time and time and time, you see the relationship blossom, refreshed, rejuvenated, rekindled, synergised, flavoured and such like. Your words on what God has favoured you in His BLESSEDNESS is gracious to enhance your placement in THE BELIEVER’S MARRIAGE in the grace.

“A man’s belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. 22 Whoso findeth a WIFE findeth a Good Thing, and OBTAINETH FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:20-22.

“And all bare Him [Jesus Christ] witness, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

“A GOOD MAN out of the GOOD TREASURE of his HEART bringeth forth that which is GOOD; and an EVIL MAN out of the EVIL TREASURE of his HEART bringeth forth that which is EVIL: for of the ABUNDANCE of the HEART his MOUTH speaketh” Luke 66:45 [Matthew 12:33-35].

The Believer’s marriage in Christ Jesus is BLESSED in the grace irrespective. That’s the divine default set from the begining of marriage creation by Father God. And it’s irrespective on how you feel about it or think about it or believe in it or live in it and such like context you may hold toward it. And it’s not cursed or a cursed thing or anything as such as unnecessary evil as some may think or perhaps have attributed in their world and context. I just want  you to know without a shadow of doubt that the creator God that made marriage is able to keep it and sustain it through all phases in the grace if we let Him be in charge as by His purpose and design in the Holy writ.

For God in marriage creation, He BLESSED them [Adam and Eve] when He set the marriage purpose in place. It’s only what and how people do with the blessedness of God in the grace in Christ Jesus, that can make it be a desired blessing as in the scriptural default otherwise it can become to them by the alternative context as it may seem to be to them as if it’s a cursed or a cursed thing or the attributed unnecessary evil by the ignorance of the scriptures.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR [MISTAKENLY, ERRONEOUSLY], not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29/Emphasis mine.

Indeed, in scriptural context as of God, the Believer’s marriage in the grace is BLESSED. God has Blessed marriage by every measure and there’s no controversy for the believing one in the grace that lets God’s purpose and essence to be their DE FACTO in the marital journey.

“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.

In God’s BLESSEDNESS, to be [being] BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED to succeed, to achieve, to become and to prosper in the grace. For THE BLESSING of God is to enrich [make rich] and He adds no sorrow, regrets and setbacks to it. And the blessing of God is not physical per se, for anyone to be able to temper with its nature, or to adulterate it, or to pervert it, or to fake it, or to camouflage it, or distort it even though the devil and cohorts have tried severally. That doesn’t mean the devil and its cohorts have not tried severally to undermine the integrity of the Believer’s marriage in the grace, thereby ensuring that the BLESSEDNESS of God is shunted and disbelieved. Unfortunately, because THE BLESSING of God is authentic, it has stood the test of time, enriching all who hold it dearly as promised.

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKETH RICH, and he ADDETH NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.

The blessedness of the believing one is located and stored in the heavenly to avoid thieves and robbers; it’s there, wherein Christ Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father God and by grace we are therein seated at His right hand by the right hand of the Father God; and as such, no thief and robber can break in to devour the blessed treasure that the believing one in Christ Jesus is endowed and endued with in the grace, as a possession 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 . . . 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the HEAVENLY PLACES” Ephesians 1:3, 20.

“And hath RAISED us up together, and MADE us SIT together in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ Jesus” Ephesians 2:6.

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 but lay up for yourselves TREASURES in HEAVEN, where neither MOTH nor RUST doth corrupt, and where THIEVES do not break through nor steal: 21 for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” Matthew 6:19-21.

The believing ones, the seed of Abraham by faith are blessed in the grace. And THE BLESSING of God is empowered by the Holy Spirit given to us in the grace, to empower and actualise in redemption towards everything that pertains to doing life and living godly [godliness] in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of FAITH, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, preached before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, IN THEE SHALL ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of FAITH are BLESSED with faithful Abraham . . . 13 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:-9, 13-14.

“Such hope [in God’s promises] never disappoints us, because God’s love has been abundantly poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us” Romans 5:5/Amplified.

And THE BLESSING of God for the believing seed of Abraham by faith in Christ Jesus, is beyond walls – for its firstly in the realm of the spirit of grace for our earthly utilisation; and as such there’s no colour, no gender, no tribe, no tongue and such like limitations to any, on the BLESSEDNESS of God as to the Believer’s marriage and in every aspect of doing life and living godly by the believing one in Christ Jesus stead. For redemption is for all and it cuts across – kindred, tongue and nations – as it enriches all that believe of God’s salvation and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. So, don’t think that your marriage isn’t blessed at all because of any geography, tongue, gender, colour and location and such like.

“For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is NEITHER Jew nor Greek, there is NEITHER bond nor free, there is NEITHER male nor female: for ye are ALL one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then ARE ye Abraham’s seed, and HEIRS according to the PROMISE” Galatians 3:26-29.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of EVERY KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall REIGN on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

“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.

The assurance of God’s BLESSEDNESS in the grace is found by – marrying the believing person you love . . . And loving the believing person you married . . . For, that’s what gives the believing one the synergy that keeps relationship thriving and flourishing, refreshing and blossoming, rekindling and rejuvenating in the grace . . . For it’s as the love light keeps glowing in life and grace, in Christ Jesus stead. The Believer’s marriage is BLESSED in the grace; you need to believe God’s Scriptural context rather than your feelings or what you see or experience and such like. It’s because, accessing the blessedness of the Believer’s marriage in the grace is by firstly acknowledging the measure of the grace and the measure of the grace that’s attributed to your relationship in the grace to be of blessing and not a curse.

“For I say, through the GRACE given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man THE MEASURE of faith” Romans 12:3.

“But unto EVERY ONE of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7.

The blessedness of the the Believer’s marriage in the grace is not only in believing but in communicating [speaking it forth in the grace, for out of the abundance of the heart believe, the mouth speaks forth in the grace in Faith]. Because our warfare and battle are of faith. The devil and cohorts are working 24/7 trying to engage with us on our faith journey. For the enemy knows that if one can deny the faith, then he can achieve and accomplish his purpose.

“That the communication of thy FAITH may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

Like everything under the sun and in the world that God has made, there will be challenging times and difficulties in the marriage at various phase of progression in the marriage. There will be times of serious indifference and doubt and disputing in the relationship – but it’s the couple’s responsibility to see all as ISSUES and not PERSONS. So that they can together deal with the issues as they see it instead of attacking each other’s persons thereby giving way to distortion in the default marital blessing in the grace. The enemy and cohorts we know, the world system and it’s challenge we see, the flesh [pride of life, lust of the eyes, desires of the flesh] in us, and the religion [religiosity we display, denomination doctrines we hold to, sectarianism  and dogmas] will rise up against our faith in the marital grace. We must choose our battle, for we are only allowed to fight the good fight of faith and good warfare at all times. And when we have this understanding, we can then ensure our blessedness in the grace.

“Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses” 1 Timothy 6:12.

“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest WAR A GOOD WARFARE; 19 holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20.

Therefore, I COMMEND you to God and to the word of His Grace that will build you up and give you an INHERITANCE in the grace, to take a stand in the grace, and start a new you in an onward and upward trajectory, assured as you ensure that you as a believer, your believer marriage is favoured and blessed and irrespective of the sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation about you now or tomorrow.

I pray you into God’s enabling grace to enjoy your marital BLESSEDNESS in the grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“A man’s stomach will be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; he will be satisfied with the consequence of his words. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it and indulge it will eat its fruit and bear the consequences of their words. 22 He who finds a [true and faithful] wife FINDS a good thing and obtains FAVOR and APPROVAL from the Lord” Proverbs 18:20-22/Amplified.

“. . . 7 In the same way, you husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way [with great gentleness and tact, and with an intelligent regard for the MARRIAGE RELATIONSHIP], as with someone physically weaker, since she is a woman. Show her honor and respect as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your PRAYERS WILL NOT BE HINDERED or INEFFECTIVE. 8 Finally, all of you be like-minded [united in spirit], sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted [courteous and compassionate toward each other as members of one household], and humble in spirit; 9 and never return evil for evil or insult for insult [avoid scolding, berating, and any kind of abuse], but on the contrary, give a blessing [pray for one another’s well-being, contentment, and protection]; for you have been CALLED for this very purpose, that you might INHERIT a BLESSING [from God that brings well-being, happiness, and protection]. 10 For, “The one who wants to enjoy life and see good days [good—whether apparent or not], must keep his tongue free from evil and his lips from speaking guile (treachery, deceit). 11 “He must turn away from wickedness and do what is right. He must search for peace [with God, with self, with others] and pursue it eagerly [actively—not merely desiring it]. 12 “For the eyes of the Lord are [looking favorably] upon the righteous (the upright), and His ears are attentive to their prayer (eager to answer), but the face of the Lord is against those who practice evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12/Amplified.

“Being subject to one another out of reverence for Christ. 22 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as [a service] to the Lord. 23 For the husband is head of the wife, as Christ is head of the church, Himself being the Savior of the body. 24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so also wives should be subject to their husbands in everything [respecting both their position as protector and their responsibility to God as head of the house]. 25 Husbands, love your wives [seek the highest good for her and surround her with a caring, unselfish love], just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, 26 so that He might sanctify the church, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word [of God], 27 so that [in turn] He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy [set apart for God] and blameless. 28 Even so husbands should and are morally obligated to love their own wives as [being in a sense] their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own body, but [instead] he nourishes and protects and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, 30 because we are members (parts) of His body. 31 For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall be joined [and be faithfully devoted] to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. 32 This mystery [of two becoming one] is great; but I am speaking with reference to [the relationship of] Christ and the church. 33 However, each man among you [without exception] is to love his wife as his very own self [with behavior worthy of respect and esteem, always seeking the best for her with an attitude of lovingkindness], and the wife [must see to it] that she respects and delights in her husband [that she notices him and prefers him and treats him with loving concern, treasuring him, honoring him, and holding him dear]” Ephesians 5:21-33/Amplified.

THE EAGLE IS AUTHENTIC

THE EAGLE IS AUTHENTIC: BE AUTHENTIC AS THE EAGLE IF YOU MUST SOAR!
 
“For do I now PERSUADE men, or God? or do I seek to PLEASE men? for if I yet PLEASED men, I should not be the SERVANT of Christ. 11 But I CERTIFY you, brethren, that the GOSPEL which was PREACHED of me is not after man. 12 For I neither RECEIVED it of man, neither was I TAUGHT it, but by the REVELATION of Jesus Christ” Galatians 1:10-12.
 
THERE’S THE NEED FOR AUTHENTICITY IN THE PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL – AND IF YOU MUST SOAR AS AN EAGLE YOU NEED TO BE AUTHENTIC IN ALL.
 
It’s your timely timeline to CREATE, INITIATE, INNOVATE and EXPLORE to reality in an onward and upward trajectory and not be bubbling in life, for you to ensure the leverage into the sphere you want to see and enjoy in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS. That’s how to end all complains, worries and anxiousness in the cause of the preaching of the Gospel.
 
You WORTH a new dawn by being authentic. And you need to make it happen for your good and for all you care about and for humanity. This is possible by REVELATION as you SOAR AS AN EAGLE by the WIND – the HOLY SPIRIT – the personified God that lives in us to enable our empowering for authenticity [Romans 5:5; John 14:16-17]. For the WIND will give you every enabling to fulfil PURPOSE when you allow Him take His place in you as it’s written:
 
“But as it is written, EYE hath not SEEN, nor EAR HEARD, neither have ENTERED into the HEART of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit SEARCHETH all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.
 
Don’t stay on the side road, don’t stay on the middle ground, neither stay on the complaining, murmuring and nagging seat; but on the onward and upward trajectory sphere of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, that gives you the enabling to GET – CREATE, INITIATE, INNOVATE and EXPLORE – the BLESSEDNESS of God in world as you do life and live in grace, and to BECOME a BLESSING too.
 
“But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee POWER to GET (INITIATE, CREATE, EXPLORE AND INNOVATE) wealth, that he may ESTABLISH his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18/Emphasis Mine.
 
Make your AUTHENTICITY known without ADULTERATION and COPYCATS and COUNTERFEIT and such like. For history will remember you, for either the PROBLEMS of life that you did SOLVE by your opportunity or you will be remembered for the CHAOS and PAIN you didn’t do and resolved by your opportunity and also for the problems you created, initiated, explored and innovated to humanity even when it’s within your reach to have made it happen for others good and goodness.
 
May you be BLESSED and a BLESSING as you initiate, create, explore and innovate as you do life and live in godliness, in all to be an ANSWER and ASSET for the good and the goodness of others, in everyway, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD

YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD: ENOUGH OF THE UNNECESSARY WORRIES AND ANXIETIES OF ‘ESSESS!
 
“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.
 
If you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT this scriptural truth in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining-lluyia worries and anxieties. And to be BLESSED means to be EMPOWERED to – Succeed, Achieve, Triumph, Become, Create, Earn, Have, Prosper, Innovate and to be Favoured and such like more. And THE BLESSING of God is SORROW FREE.
 
“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES rich, and he ADDS no SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.
 
The BLESSING of God is not a CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE; but it’s the ENABLING, BESTOWED and EMPOWERING GRACE of God to create, earn and acquire these aforementioned (CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE), which most people today do fight and go crazy about no matter the cost and prize tag involved in having or getting them – (Luke 12:30-32/Matthew 6:31-34). And by these enabling, bestowed and empowering grace called – God’s BLESSING, you can create, earn and have the aforementioned in grace without such SWEAT, STRESS, DISTRESS, DEPRESSION and ALL ‘ESSESS because you KNOW and UNDERSTAND the HOW to appropriate and enact what it means to be BLESSED of God in REDEMPTION.
 
Your BLESSEDNESS is a DONE DEED in Christ. This makes you MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. Our BLESSEDNESS is first spiritual before it becomes tangible – that’s reality – physical. Your ability to appropriate and enact the BLESSEDNESS by FAITH from the realm of the spiritual, that is, in the heavenly placement wherein the BLESSEDNESS are located (Ephesians 1:3), and Christ is position and seated (Ephesians 1:20) and we are position and seated in Christ Jesus at the right hand of God the Father (Ephesians 2:6). Knowing and having this understanding justifies why we are enjoined to lay our TREASURES above, meaning, in the heavenly, where no thieves and such like can access (Matthew 6:19-21).
 
The New Creation BLESSEDNESS of the NEW TESTAMENT, is not condition and not in any conditionality as in the OLD TESTAMENT essence that’s built and synthesised with conditionalities of an “IF” before you can access the BLESSEDNESS of God – Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-4; Revelation 5:9-12; Deuteronomy 28:1-14. For Christ Jesus in our REDEMPTION took care of the conditionalities of the old. So, let no man put you under subjection and subjective situation before your can earn your rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead after you’ve born anew as New Creation.
 
“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.
 
“And it shall come to pass, IF thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and all these BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God . . . 9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, IF thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways . . 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; IF that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them . . .” Deuteronomy 28:1-14.
 
Therefore, APPROPRIATE and ENACT the scriptural TRUTH in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining-lluyia worries and anxieties and begin to enjoin your REDEMPTION provisions in Christ Jesus stead.
 
Have a BLESSED (an EMPOWERED) day. And be emboldened to say to somebody today – “YOU ARE BLESSED” – Meaning, Be EMPOWERED TO SUCCEED in LIFE and GRACE. Amen.

YOU ARE BLESSED – JUST APPROPRIATE AND ENACT IT IN GRACE TODAY.

A WOMAN THAT REVERENTIALLY FEARS THE LORD SHALL BE PRAISE

By Leave a Comment

A WOMAN THAT REVERENTIALLY FEARS THE LORD SHALL BE PRAISE: I FOUND THAT WOMAN IN NKEMDILIM [MY WIFE] IN LIFE AND GRACE!

“SAY [GRACIOUS WORDS] ye to the RIGHTEOUS, that it shall be WELL [WHOLE] with him: for they shall eat the FRUIT of their DOINGS” Isaiah 3:10.

Dear holy and righteous beloved brother in Christ Jesus, when last did you take time to write a note about the darlyn Sister that turned into a friend and then turned into a wife in your life without regretting it? I attended a dear family friend wife birthday years ago where the dear brother was telling us he loves his wife as part of the closing; and end up the closing by saying “till next year” again. And we were all puzzled and stunned when he said it’s once in a year so that it doesn’t go into her head as he’s doing loving things and don’t need to say it often. And I wondered how many are in such state of not being able to express daily their love to their spouse vocally apart from the doings.

Then I recall the scripture says, I am paraphrasing – “Say to the righteous it shall be well with them” Isaiah 3:10; and the righteous includes your spouse’s and in this context your wife, which indicates saying gracious words of wellness and wholeness and loveliness and liveliness and such like to the righteous in all circumstances, and irrespective – of which I see my wife in that picture and context too, hence I am very mindful of gracious words to being spoken in life and grace, as I found in the Lord Jesus, that made the people wondered and amazed to asked questions, if He wasn’t the Son of Joseph. It simply because the gracious words was to counter the distorted words and adulterated words and demeaning words and polluted words and probably cursing and swearing words being spoken about in His days in humanity as about us today, that ought not to be to our fellow being for any reason and irrespective.

“And all bare Him [JESUS] witness and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of His mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

Hence, I am not just saying but writing to wake you up from your once in a while sayings or writing’s about your dear lovely Sister turned into a friend and then turned into a wife as I do about mine today. Indeed, the scripture was right to say expressly that:

 “Charm and grace are deceptive, and [superficial] beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord [reverently worshiping, obeying, serving, and trusting Him with awe-filled respect], she shall be praised and admired” [Proverbs 31:30].

“Live JOYFULLY with the wife whom thou LOVEST all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy PORTION in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun” Ecclesiastes 9:9.

And I found the scriptural context above so, in my NKEMDILIM, my wife, the daughter of Zion as she earnestly endeavours daily to live meaningfully and to fulfill God’s given purpose scripturally; and endeavouring to ensure that she’s equally renewing her days as the eagle effortlessly in life and grace. I never knew that someone else outside us was observing untill when I heard this phrase spoken to me in her absence:

“It takes Faith to get FAITH” – Rev Pete Davis.

The statement above was the phrase said to me by Rev Pete Davis while travelling with him and others from a Hillsong Minister Conference, London, some years ago. I have not forgotten it. He was teasing me in a good way on how I got my beautiful wife. That I took faith to get FAITH. Initially I couldn’t get his logic until a while in course of the journey and we all laughed at the gracious words spoken. And I said in response that, “It takes Faith to keep FAITH” also. And I can’t help but to PRAISE this Beautiful Daughter of Zion – Nkemdilim Faith MORSI [my Wife], for the gracious walks together, through the years – the good and the challenging times. She is just loving, adorable, fabulous, sweet, gorgeous and blessed indeed.

And more recently, I have come to discover a new her, more and again after all these years of her being around me – She just keep renewing her days and our days as the Eagle. Simply because, she is fashioned in the similitude of God’s gracious and graceful palace; and crafted wonderfully and fearfully in God’s reverential image and likeness as if I never knew before but knowing to refresh, rejuvenate, rekindle and to keep glowing and glittering again and again [Psalms 144:12; Psalms 139:13-18].

I have been away and busy for a week only to return and find out that she and God has renewed her days again and again and again and . . . Now all things have become so lovely, lively, refreshing and rejuvenating.

I have come to know in grace that beauty is gracious and not vain when you reverentially fear the Lord. For it’s an inside out trajectory and not just a mere outwardly display with emptiness. And my wife had shown as she keeps showing that God MADE her so and it’s marvellous live in such graciousnesss and gracefulness. I BELIEVE it! That SETTLES it!! And I therefore confirm this message irrespective.

Blessed regards.

“Many daughters have done nobly, and well [with the strength of character that is steadfast in goodness], BUT YOU EXCEL THEM ALL” 30  Charm and grace are deceptive, and [superficial] beauty is vain, BUT A WOMAN WHO FEARS THE LORD [reverently worshiping, obeying, serving, and trusting Him with awe-filled respect], SHE SHALL BE PRAISED. 31 Give her of the product of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates [of the city]” Proverbs 31:29-31/Amplified.

“He has made everything BEAUTIFUL and APPROPRIATE in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11/Amplified.

“Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4 who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 5 who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s” Psalms 103:1-5.
