CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

January 20, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]; IT’S ABOUT LIVING IN THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF KNOWING THAT YOU HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST!

“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 . . . 14 But the NATURAL MAN receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are FOOLISHNESS unto him: neither can he KNOW them, because they are SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. 15 But he that is SPIRITUAL JUDGE [EXAMINE] all things, yet he himself is JUDGED [EXAMINE] of no man. 16 For who hath KNOWN THE MIND of the Lord, that he may INSTRUCT him? BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST” 1 Corinthians 2:9-16.

When Apostle Paul was writing to the mixed multitude Corinthians Church that’s so gifted, as the scripture does indicates that thy lack not behind in spiritual gifting [1 Corinthians 1:7], and yet they were swimming with various vices; he then sensed of their lack of knowledge, and their inability to understand and comprehend spiritual things that they were endowed and endued with to function in the grace. For they were so gifted, but their inability to decipher the spiritual man from the natural man that has been reborn [redeemed] was concerning to him; and more so, they were filled with the Holy Spirit of revelation, which is for them to articulate the mind of God in wisdom – where wisdom is the application of knowledge. It thus means, being gifted without operating in wisdom to bring it forth into a reality

In 1 Corinthians 2:1-8, he wrote to them as to us of today of the necessity to live by God’s wisdom if we must excel and be exceptional in living above the conscript of the princes of this world in their unwise way of not able to know the mind of God concerning the cross of human redemption until Christ Jesus by the rugged cross of crucifixion SAVED [REDEEMED] us. And in 1 Corinthians 2:9-10, he made known of how the Holy Spirit can reveal to us the mind of God on things about us that no eyes have seen, ears have not heard or neither has entered into the heart of any man knowingly, because of the love for God within us for Him. And Apostle Paul concluded, that by the virtue of our spiritual [reborn] disposition over the natural [unborn] dispositions, we have the MIND of Christ Jesus, to examine and make wise judgement in decisions in the grace over anything. That’s what makes the CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], to take hold of us and make us walk in the wisdom of God that transcends and surpasses the wisdom of this world [1 Corinthians 2:1-8]. For Christ Jesus in us, is the wisdom of God and the power of God [1 Corinthians 1:18-24, 30] to enable us do life and live godly with God’s speed in His stead, in this present world.

And it’s for the consciousness of making the day to day wise judgement as the reborn of God, we are admonished in 2 Corinthians 13:5-6, to always examine [make self judgement of] ourselves if we are still on track with the MIND of Christ Jesus in our day to day decision, as we do life and live in godliness – except we ARE reprobates [hardened, unexamined, unprincipled], but we ARE not reprobates as Believers of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“EXAMINE yourselves, whether ye be in the FAITH; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is IN you, except ye be REPROBATES? 6 But I trust that ye shall know that we ARE NOT REPROBATES” 2 Corinthians 13:5-6.

And Apostle Paul was able to X-ray and charge the Philippians Church in Philippians 2:1-11, with a taste of what it means and takes to have the MIND of Christ Jesus in a different perspective and context from the Corinthians Church. He spoke to them and to us of the essence to cultivate – the spirit of consolation, of comfort, of fellowship, of mercies, of oneness, of one mind of humility of respect to esteem others and such like. He likened it to the MIND of Christ Jesus toward God while in humanity, that earned Him the exaltation of the Father God wherein for today and always for all eternity, that at the NAME of Jesus, His NAME becomes ANSWER to all human QUEST; and His NAME is above all names that all mankind must BOW and KNEE to at the mentioning of the name, as He earned from the Father God without controversy. What an attribute. What a priceless tag. What a life to live in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]. That’s what the MIND of Christ Jesus can reproduce in us as we walk in His mind context and default in us – for we have the mind of Christ Jesus as a default in the reborn spirit of our salvation. Make it a living consciousness for you and all about you that are reborn – the New Creation as written:

“If there be therefore ANY CONSOLATION in Christ, if ANY COMFORT of love, if ANY FELLOWSHIP of the Spirit, if ANY BOWELS AND MERCIES, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be LIKEMINDED, having the same love, being of ONE ACCORD, of ONE MIND. 3. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in LOWLINESS OF MIND let each ESTEEM other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU, WHICH WAS ALSO IN CHRIST JESUS: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he HUMBLED himself, and became OBEDIENT unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly EXALTED Him, and GIVEN Him a NAME which is ABOVE every name: 10 that at the NAME of Jesus every KNEE should BOW, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every TONGUE should CONFESS that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the GLORY of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11.

I therefore say to you to live in your onward and upward trajectory, in the consciousness of knowing that you have the MIND OF CHRIST JESUS, and you can by the indwelling Holy Spirit judge [examine] rightly all things by the scriptural default in context unlike the natural man [unborn] in Christ Jesus. Stop living in self-defeat as one who can’t make wise judgement on things and always beckoning on others to make private and personal decisions for you while being deceived always as a prey and victim for this agent of darkness. And it’s unfortunate that many have become vulnerable to a fault in many ways to such a crafty, cunning and devouring false brethren that have creeped in to steal, kill and destroy as many innocent ones in the faith as they are cohorts of satan that appears and camouflaged as brethren.

Today, reboot your mind and reset it to synchronise your spirit being and be transformed by the WORD of God that can refresh and renew your mind to begin a new consciousness of having the Mind of Christ Jesus as a reborn child of God, that no man can deceive any more. This will help you to wisely ARTICULATE and PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God for your well-being as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

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

“That ye PUT OFF concerning the former CONVERSATION [CONDUCT] the old man, which is CORRUPT according to the deceitful lusts; 23 and be RENEWED in the spirit of YOUR MIND; 24 and that ye PUT ON the new man, which after God is CREATED in RIGHTEOUSNESS and TRUE HOLINESS” Ephesians 4:22-24.

I pray that you become what God’s WORD says you ARE and can be, without a shadow of turning, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. I want you to say it repeatedly until it begins to take hold of you by all means: “I HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST” in me.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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 whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: 29 whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily” Colossians 1:27-29.

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ . . . 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain . . . 27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel” Philippians 1:6, 21, 27.

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11.

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed, is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 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 anything ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you” Philippians 3:1-15.

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” Galatians 2:20-21.

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

MIRRORING CHRISTLIKENESS

MIRRORING CHRISTLIKENESS: SCRIPTURAL TERMS TO OUR BEING CHRISTLIKE IN REALITIES!

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” Galatians 2:20-21.

It’s very easy for anyone to acclaim being Christlike, the reality is that Apostle Paul, through His writings in the epistles, helps to give us a full Holy Spirit inspired, revealed and empowered insight and foresight of what Jesus Christ is to us and what being Christlike [Christlikeness] encompasses. And I am here sharing on how you can scripturally know and understand what in the New Creation, being Christlike entails from the writings of Apostle Paul and other Epistles writers, to enable you to live and actualise tangibly and in reality, the Christlikeness.

Take a glimpse of the Philemon 1:6 scriptures. It gives insight that, one can only be effectual [productive, result oriented], when our Faith communication [declaration, sharing, announcing etc.], is coming from our ability [capacity] to the acknowledgement of the good done IN us [being done through us, being done with us] which is IN Christ Jesus [not the devil’s and demons and Satan’s doings that most of us sees and acknowledge daily and talk about]. The context word is ‘IN’ you ‘IN’ Christ Jesus. And it’s in the acknowledging, enacting and authenticating these scriptural contexts and such like, that makes our definition, and indicates the how to being Christlike – to live in the person of Christlikeness.

“That the communication (SHARING, FELLOWSHIP) of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6 (Emphasis mine).

When you build your being around the good of God that’s done IN you, IN Christ Jesus, you have nothing ever to be crediting and acknowledging to the devil and demons and Satan and cohorts. It’s unfortunate that most people in their simple acts of prayers are filled up with matters of demons and devils and cohorts as if it’s a wish that the enemy and cohort will always pass through their dwelling places to sign signature daily. – you must never forget that only Father God in Christ Jesus, is OMNIPOTENT, OMNIPRESENT and OMNISCIENCE, and the enemy [the devil] and cohort are not, and they can’t be what God is, as people always purported to booster the devil and demon presence almost in every prayers and spoken word about them.

I hereby behold you to make a gracious start up on a good note this year, as I am giving you an assignment that you must be ready to do intentionally, pragmatically and unreservedly; this is to help get into the Christlikeness by your acknowledgement, which is to help you live purposefully, meaningfully and in fulfilling your being Christlike 24/7, otherwise you will be doing religion and denominationalism, sectarianism and such like.

I want you to get your Bible [preferably King James Version] now, because the exercise I am giving you to practically do, is drawn using it; this will enable you get the actual context without alteration by other versions, and you can then afterwards, look through other versions to get the substance of the word to apply without adulteration of the context if you choose.

When you take time to mark these scriptures and use them as your baseline of prayers and speaking forth who you ARE of God in Christ Jesus, you find out that overtime, your life become what you’ve come to acknowledge by the scriptures thereby creating your reality and tangibility in Christlikeness – being Christlike.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11.

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh.

GOD CROWN’S THE YEAR WITH HIS GOODNESS AND ABUNDANCE

January 14, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

GOD CROWN’S THE YEAR WITH HIS GOODNESS AND ABUNDANCE: FOR YOUR WELL-BEING AS BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS]!

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to RECEIVE glory and honour and power: for thou hast CREATED all things, and for thy PLEASURE they ARE and WERE CREATED” Revelation 4:11.

“Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. 12 I have MADE the earth, and CREATED man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded” Isaiah 45:11-12.

I herein present to you the God of the realms of timeless timeline who created the timed earth of the dawn year. He’s the uncreated creator, who made all things beautiful in His time and had put ETERNITY into the human heart [spirit] to make the human differ from every created things. He created the earth for mankind and not mankind for the earth, hence mankind can rule and reign over all things created to oversee under God in Christ Jesus.

“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.

Our uncreated creator God, did commissioned man from the beginning to oversee the affairs of the earth as his ambassador and representative [Genesis 1:26-28; 2 Corinthians 5:20]; however, God still remains the Lord God of the earth and all that dwells in the world though man is there to represent Him [Psalms 8:4-6; Psalms 24:1].

“What is MAN, that thou art MINDFUL of him? and the son of man, that thou VISITEST him? 5 For thou hast MADE him a little lower than the angels, and hast CROWNED him with glory and honour. 6 Thou MADEST him to have DOMINION over the works of thy hands; thou hast put ALL THINGS under his FEET: 7 all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; 8 the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and WHATSOEVER passeth through the paths of the seas” Psalms 8:4-8.

“The EARTH is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the WORLD, and they that DWELL therein” Psalms 24:1.

Reading from the various Scriptures above, although not limited, I can emphatically inform you that God wants the best for you today and tomorrow and through the year, so long it has to be under the context and concept of His WORD otherwise it’s adulteration, falsehoods and perversions.

I can also say that the God that I do know in Christ Jesus stead, and have come to SERVE unreservedly and acceptably, and to WORSHIP worthily, faithfully, graciously and gracefully – loves you as in all mankind. He cares so much about your worthwhile for which Christ Jesus paid for in our redemption to make it possible. And by the indwelling Spirit within my spirit, through God’s WORD – I know our God is the TRUTH, the LIFE and the WAY.

More so, God is interested in all matters that concerns our doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus as His representative on the earth. Hence, He crowns our time [second, minute, day, week, month and year] with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE to ensure that we thrive and be assured that He’s faithful, true and sure to His promises and commission. [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15; Psalms 65:11-13; Psalms 118:24; John 4:20-24; John 14:15-17; Romans 8:9, 14; 1 John 4:4-6].

As for BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] in every place in Christ Jesus, our uncreated creator God, who rules and reigns over all of the heavens and the earth, and have made the heavens His dwellings and the earth His footstool; He has made it possible for all mankind as you and me, to dwell on the earth on His behalf as representatives to live through year to year triumphantly in the glorious redemption [Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 8:4-8; Colossians 2:15, 2 Corinthians 2:14; Exodus 15:1-21]. It thus means, that the earth is made for man and not man for the earth as the infallible Holy writ enjoined in the Scriptures [Psalms 24:1; Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 115:16-18].

God that crowns the scriptural prophetic assured year [2 Peter 1:19-21; Psalms 118:24] with His goodness and abundance, in that He desires us to prosper, be in health as our souls prospers [3 John 1:2] – for He’s the focus of this my Apostolic themed vision CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS]. For our God, He is not mysterious, though a mystery to many who only see Him just for an earthly possession and miracles only, and don’t see Him in essence as the GOD of our redemption – who is to be SERVED acceptably and unreservedly, and to be WORSHIPPED wholly, worthily and intentionally; for some, He’s not more than anything just beyond the ACTS and MIRACLE enclaves for their needs and substances and vulnerability [Psalms 103:7]. These categories are people whose objectives differ not from the children of Israel who crave after God or sees Him, solely for the ACTS [miracles and daily Bread and manna] that He can provide, while unlike their leader Moses, he crave after God to KNOW Him and His WAY – the PATH to doing life and living godly as the scriptures indicates here though not limited. [Psalms 103:7; Psalms 16:11; Proverbs 4:18-23; Psalms 36:9]. I behold you to know that there’s the need to know God for who He is to you rather than what you can just gain and benefit of Him.

“He made KNOWN His WAYS unto Moses, His ACTS [MIRACLES, SIGNS] unto the children of Israel” Psalms 103:7.

Herein are just three notable descriptions and possessions of the many of His multi-sided and multifaceted characteristics and NATURE and PERSON of the GOD I want you to know in order to access His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE in this YEAR that He has made for us to thrive and be His representatives [ambassadors]:

OMNISCIENCE – This in essence, thus indicates that our GOD – He is an all-knowing God. Meaning, God is all-knowing in the sense that he is aware of the past, present, and future. Nothing takes him by surprise. His knowledge is total. He knows all that there is to know and all that can be known. That He doesn’t act when you intend Him to act or to behave doesn’t mean He’s unaware of many things happening on the earth in human worlds of doing life and living godly. The universality of God’s knowledge are unequivocal and undisputable in all respects. [Psalms 147:5; John 21:17; Hebrews 4:12-13; 1John 3:20]. God knows detailed happenings on earth, not only in the present, but even in the future – [1 Samuel 10:2; 1 Kings 13:1-4; 2 Kings 8:12; Psalms 139:4; Acts 2:23; Acts 4:27-28].
OMNIPOTENT – This in essence, thus indicates that our GOD – He is an ALL-POWERFUL God. This means God can do what he wants. It means He is not subject to physical limitations like man is. He’s God, as having supreme and ultimate power in the heavens and earth – [Hebrews 11:3]. And being OMNIPOTENT, God has power over wind, water, gravity, physics and such like. God’s power is infinite, or limitless beyond every human imagination and comprehension. [Psalms 115:3; Isaiah 55:11; Jeremiah 22:7; Genesis 18:14]. His authority rules and reigns supreme, and His sovereignty oversees all creation and beyond in the heaven and the earth.
OMNIPRESENT – This in essence, thus indicates that our GOD – He is an All-PRESENT God. meaning, He is Everywhere at the same time – This describes Him as JEHOVAH SHAMMAH – [Ezekiel 48:35]. This is His ability to be present everywhere at the same time, an unbounded or universal presence. Omnipresence means minimally that there is no place to which God’s knowledge and power do not extend. Hence it could be said of Him Emmanuel – The God with us – [Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Matthew 28:20]. This term means that God is capable of being everywhere at the same time. It means His divine presence encompasses the whole universe. There is no location where He does not inhabit. This should not be confused with pantheism, which suggests that God is synonymous with the universe itself; instead, omnipresence indicates that God is distinct from the universe, but inhabits the entirety of it. He is everywhere at once. [Psalms 139:1-18. Acts 17:24-31].

Therefore, in pursuance of the plan, purpose and pursuit for the year apostolic mandate given to me, which I am glad to share with you again as it’s themed – “BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS]” IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS; it is my call to the urgency to help us not to limit God by any measure as the children of Israel did limit God in their redemption context and concept and suffered the consequences without measure for their UNBELIEF in limiting the Holy One of Israel. [Psalms 781-72; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-11]; I want you to know full well of the TRUTH, that God intent for you is to CROWN the YEAR with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. For it is – the DAY that turns into WEEK and the WEEK that turns into the MONTH and the month that turns into the YEAR – of which God has MADE for you to rejoice and be glad in it; because a thousand years in men’s eyes is a day before God, just as a day before men is as a thousand years to Him – for He dwells in immortality counting in eternity timeless timeline, while men dwells in mortality counting on timed timeline.

“But, BELOVED, be not IGNORANT of this one thing, that ONE DAY is with the Lord as a THOUSAND years, and a THOUSAND years as ONE DAY” 2 Peter 3:8.

“For a THOUSAND years in thy sight are but as YESTERDAY when it is past, and as a watch in the night” Psalms 90:4.

And by FAITH in His eternal WORD, we can synchronise God’s immortality timeline counting with mortality timeline through FAITH in the now [Hebrews 11:1-3]. Hence, UNBELIEF must NEVER have a place with anyone who is in Christ Jesus stead, otherwise we attract what God has not design or fathom for us in Him. For by Faith we have our being, we live and we go about our day to day by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Acts 17:28; Habakkuk 2:4 (Hebrews 11:6; Galatians 3:12; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:16-17); Romans 10:8-13, 17; 1 John 5:3-5].

And it’s imperative that you know and understand, that God MADE the YEAR for a CROWNING – [ROYALTY, HONOUR, NOBILITY AND DIGNITY] – in His grace for you; and it’s up to you to believe God for who He is, while your part then is to walk with your head up, shoulders high and on the high heels of faith in Christ Jesus stead – as by His grace and BLESSEDNESS in His REDEMPTION plan and purpose for you. He made everything, including you and all that exist – GOOD and BEAUTIFUL [Ecclesiastes 3:11; Revelation 4:11; Psalms 8:4-8; Isaiah 45:11-12]. And He’s ever ready and faithful to keep His good CREATION in that measure in His promise – Hebrews 10:23, 1 Corinthians 1:9; 1 Thessalonians 5:24.

God is set in His ASSURING and ENSURING, that everything about YEAR 2026 concerning you, in every of that – mountain and hills are MADE low, Valleys are MADE filled and exalted, Crooked roads of life are MADE straight and while the Rough, rugged and tough places are MADE smooth and gracious – as written in Isaiah 40:3-5.

Therefore, I say that in BEING TRIUMPHANT IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS, that you will not limit yourself in God in Christ Jesus by the same UNBELIEF that the children of Israel did and suffered. I PRAY that you characterise yourself by the – WORK BY FAITH, PATIENCE OF HOPE AND LABOUR OF LOVE – as you do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus [1 Thessalonians 1:3]. And take in the necessary and needed enabling of God, to go forth and BECOME what you want to be by the WORD in His grace, wisdom and speed in order to PARTAKE in the INHERITANCE for all SANCTIFIED in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:3-4; Acts 20:32; Hebrews 6:10-12].

HAVE AN AMAZING YEAR THAT’S CROWNED WITH GOD’S BLESSEDNESS.

BEING CHRISTLIKE: LIVING IN THE SPHERE OF CHRISTLIKENESS!

January 14, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

BEING CHRISTLIKE: LIVING IN THE SPHERE OF CHRISTLIKENESS!

“For to me, to LIVE is Christ [He is my source of joy, my reason to LIVE] and to DIE is gain [for I will be with Him in ETERNITY]” Philippians 1:20-21/Amplified.

Christlikeness is the quality of being CHRISTLIKE or showing forth the spirit of Jesus Christ in every place of doing life and living godly. The Believer’s in Christ Jesus are called to become in their living being – CHRISTLIKE; this is as depicted in Christ Jesus, while in humanity toward God and toward man, even as Apostle Paul seems to acknowledge also of himself in his humanity according to the scriptures [Philippians 1:20-21; Acts 24:16 [Acts 20:20-21; John 9:4; John 10:22-38]; more so, as in Christ Jesus living in humanity for God’s cause and purpose for our redemption as we are admonished by the Scriptures to equally live for a purpose if we must be able to live in fulfilling our being an ambassador for Christ in God [1 John 3:8; John 18:37 (Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:11-12)].

“. . . 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 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 . . .” Philippians 3:1–16.

Herein are some few thoughts about being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS], that I want you to ponder in your spirit-being, though not limited, as more expository will be made available in the nearest future:

To being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] is to manifestly reveal God’s presence on earth through the Holy Spirit that’s given to us as His representative [ambassador]. [John 14:16-17; Romans 8:9-11; Romans 5:5] [2 Corinthians 5:20; Psalms 8:4-8; Psalms 115:16-18; Psalms 45:11-12; Genesis 1:26-28].

To being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] is an indicator as to being His Ambassador knowingly or unknowingly. For when you become a New Creation of Father God in Christ Jesus, a default DNA of representing the heavenly in an earthly affair sets in. And only a pure ignorance, deception and adulteration and insensitivity to the Holy Spirit by the WORD, will make one to live outside the default. [2 Corinthians 5:17-21].

To being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS], is to live and love as Father God in Christ Jesus without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation [John 3:16-18; John 15:8-16; John 13:34-45; John 8:30-32; Romans 12:9].

To being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] is to take a stand in the grace by the Faith that justifies us and gave us access to God to SUBJUGATE [SUBDUE] all things as Jesus Christ did in humanity – [Romans 5:1-2; Philippians 3:20-21]. And in the same rights and privileges as in our redemption to have POWER over all flesh [John 17:2] and to live in consciousness of the CHRISTLIKENESS as one who knows that He’s been given ALL THINGS to do life and to live godly on the earth under God purpose [John 13:3; Ephesians 1:3-5; 2 Peter 1:1-5].

To being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] is about carrying His cross daily [Luke 9:23-24]; And carrying His cross daily is about living for a purpose and cause in Him. And carrying the cross means carrying the redemption Gospel daily for the good of humanity without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. And the Redemption Gospel is in total and whole; and it supercedes and transcends any human inclination, sectarianism, denominationalism and such like; for it’s about preaching Christ – Preaching the WORD without adulteration [Philippians 1:15-17; Acts 8:4-8; 1 John 5:7; John 1:1-5, 14, 17].

And the best way to being CHRISTLIKE – to live fully in CHRISTLIKENESS, is to enact and authenticate God’s WORD by the Holy Spirit in our day to day as we are made to become of Him. [John 1:12.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11.

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed, is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 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 3:1-15.

FOR A COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL AND FULFILLING YEAR

January 13, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

FOR A COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL AND FULFILLING YEAR: GEAR UP AND EXERCISE THE DARING FORCE OF FAITH – IT’S YOUR SYNERGY!

“And FROM THE DAYS of John the Baptist until NOW the KINGDOM of heaven SUFFERETH VIOLENCE (OPPOSITION), and THE VIOLENT (THE DARING) TAKE IT [SEIZED IT] BY FORCE (FAITH) ” Mathew 11:12/Emphasis Mine.

In this year of the Lord, that our God has made [Psalms 118:24] as a crowned and prophetically WORD assured year [Psalms 65:11-13; 2 Peter 1:19-21], we have to gear up and take our moment to thrive in order to ensure and be assured of A COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL AND FULFILLING YEAR. And I want you to know full well that the path to being CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] in order to live TRIUMPHANTLY in a colourful, thriving, meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling life- in DOING LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus, is not built on MERE WISHES or WISHY-WASHY PROPHECIES or being a LAZY-BUTT. Otherwise, as the saying goes, if “WISHES where HORSES, BEGGAR’S will ride”; and I add, many will own lots of it too. Hence, it’s written, that FAITH without corresponding ACTION based only on a mere BELIEVE is dead been alone.

“. . . 14 But wilt thou know, O VAIN man, that FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD? . . . 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO” James 2:14-26.

“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.

Let it be known as per our redemption, which is Scripturally based in context, that God wants you to TRIUMPH always and in every place in doing LIFE and godly LIVING in Christ Jesus [BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15]. However, for TRIUMPH and TRIUMPHING to be ensured and assured resulting a thriving, colourful and blossoming living, know for certainty it doesn’t come for the COWARDS, the MERE DREAMERS, the FEARFUL, the PRESUMPTUOUS, the TIMID, IGNORANT, SLOTHFUL (SLUGGARD) and those, who are AIMLESSLY craven in such like places, and expecting GREATNESS for a no ACTION [GEARED UP AND EXERCISE] of the faith. For FAITH is acting correspondingly on what you Scripturally believe of God’s word in context, without a doubtful heart. And by Faith, we will triumph victoriously over the world’s opposition system that sets itself against the de facto superiority of God’s WORD over humanity.

“And we DESIRE that every one of you do SHEW the same DILIGENCE to the full ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be NOT SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT the PROMISES” Hebrews 6:11-12.

“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.

“Now THANKS be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.

“And HAVING SPOILED PRINCIPALITIES AND POWERS, HE MADE A SHEW OF THEM OPENLY, TRIUMPHING OVER THEM IN IT” Colossians 2:15.

I want to remind you and say it again, for you to know assuredly, that in the kingdom, having the GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL living, is not for those who don’t want to ARISE and GEAR UP – that’s, to say – to put their FAITH to work in Christ Jesus stead; and more so, and not for those who are unwilling to take on their life TEST CHALLENGES by the FORCE OF FAITH to make and ensure their PURPOSEFUL living comes out of their faith at work, in order to turn their MESS into a MESSAGE and their TEST into TESTIMONY, by the enabling and assuring grace, in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Beloved friend, know for sure that colourful, meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling life is for those who are DETERMINED to DARE and GEARED UP to EXERCISE their FAITH in the Lord and SavIour Jesus Christ, no matter what it takes to SCRIPTURALLY ensure it in context. I mean those who have determined and are committed to LEAPING over their WALLS of opposition BY THE FORCE OF FAITH. This essence may start small, but as consistent endeavours are geared to ensure that FAITH IS AT WORK for TRIUMPH and GREATNESS. May I awaken you to know that each of us in Christ Jesus is given THE MEASURE of FAITH by THE MEASURE of GRACE that’s needed to meet our challenging plan, purpose and pursuit in order for us to do life triumphantly in all the phase of living.

“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.

Know that FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE OR CREED to be merely PREACHED but a divine mystery, that’s geared as the SYNERGY and DEFAULT in our lifestyle that we must LIVE OUT on a daily basis in order to ensure on our assured position in grace as being JUSTIFIED to reign and rule in dominion, holding on unquestionably.

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

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

Only those who take a stand in the grace by the FORCE OF THEIR FAITH in their rights and privileges in redemption in Christ Jesus, will turn all sphere into their opportunities and possibilities – and will in turn with time ensure one overcomes every opposition to the colourful and meaningful life in the Lord and Saviour – Jesus Christ. Amen. And I therefore ask you today, if you will take a STAND today to act and put your faith to work in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, to make your life meaningful and fulfilling in YEAR? Then you need to exercise the DARING FORCE OF FAITH against the work of the ENEMY and COHORTS, so that you can ensure to BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] and be TRIUMPHANTLY assured, for your day to day, and daily doing of Life and living godly in Christ Jesus in the year.

I pray that you will DARE and be GEARED UP to face your CHALLENGES and FEARS TRIUMPHANTLY, by the enabling of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in the VICTORIOUS force of FAITH, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE THYSELF RATHER UNTO GODLINESS. 8. For bodily EXERCISE profiteth little: but GODLINESS IS PROFITABLE UNTO ALL THINGS, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come” 1 Timothy 4:7-8.

“Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.

“Verily I say unto you, among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. And from the DAYS of John the Baptist until now the KINGDOM of heaven suffereth VIOLENCE (OPPOSITION), AND THE VIOLENT (DARING) TAKE IT BY FORCE (FAITH)”. Matthew 11:11-12 Emphasis Mine.

TO SOAR IN GRACE IN THIS YEAR OF THE LORD

January 12, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

TO SOAR IN GRACE IN THIS YEAR OF THE LORD: NO IDOL OR STRANGE GODS PERMITTED AND ALLOWED!

“. . . 11 As an EAGLE stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: 12 so the Lord alone did LEAD him, and THERE WAS NO STRANGE GOD WITH HIM. 13 He MADE him RIDE on the HIGH PLACES of the earth, that he might EAT the increase of the fields; and He MADE him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock; 14 butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape” Deuteronomy 32:7-14/Emphasis Mine

To live in the sphere and realm of BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] and thereby TRIUMPHANT and then SOAR in EXALTATION and DOMINION as an Eagle as God lead Israel – and to ensure and be assured of the redemption sphere as an OVERCOMER and to be VICTORIOUS and to be a MORE THAN CONQUERORS of the indwelling GREATER LIFE of God within us – one must have resolute RESOLVED, an intentionally and unreservedly decision – that there’s going to be a NO STRANGE god or IDOL in the purposeful journey of the dawn crown YEAR. This thus means there’s no room or allowance for a STRANGE god or IDOL – for that’s not going to be permitted and allowed in cause and course of the set plan, purpose and pursuit; this pragmatic and unapologetic order is to make and ensure that the possibilities of BEING CHRISTLIKE as a default of God for the year is possible, as you do LIFE and live GODLY, in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“What say I then? that the IDOL is ANY THING, or that which is offered (CHANCED) in sacrifice to idols is anything? 20 But I say that the things which the Gentiles SACRIFICE, they SACRIFICE to DEVILS, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have FELLOWSHIP with devils. 21 Ye cannot DRINK the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: Ye cannot be PARTAKERS of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils. 22. Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?” 1 Corinthians 10:19-22/Emphasis Mine.

For ALL THINGS are only POSSIBLE to them that BELIEVE with NO STRANGE GOD and IDOL in their baggage otherwise it will hinder the operation of the realisation of God’s WORD by the Holy Spirit for them to make the needed difference in the given YEAR.

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH. 24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I BELIEVE; help thou mine UNBELIEF” Mark 9:23.

“And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is IMPOSSIBLE, but not with God: for with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Mark 10:27 [Matthew 19:26].

For many in the CAUSE and COURSE of life challenges and circumstances will do ANYTHING knowingly and unknowingly to subvert and twist the pure path of their BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] in order to ensure and enact the GREATER LIFE of God in Christ Jesus within them; some will DO the WHATEVER, in order to get whatsoever they want, and still wants and await Father God to bless their impure path undermining that Father God intents ALWAYS is to ensure what He had assured will always be – and by obedience, one can then live TRIUMPHANTLY and enjoy the GREATER life of His WILL, as He has certified that there’s no place for any form of STRANGE god or IDOL ACQUISITIONS in His Kingdom purpose. And someone needs to know that God can’t be mocked and or fooled around with any form of UNBELIEF to His WORD by anyone that’s trying to play smart and wanting His approval to their crafty, pervert and unscriptural context and concept to His WORD.

“Be NOT DECEIVED; God is NOT MOCKED: for whatsoever a man SOWETH, that shall he also REAP. 8 For he that SOWETH to his FLESH shall of the flesh reap CORRUPTION; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap LIFE everlasting” Galatians 6:7-8.

You need to KNOW today that an IDOL or STRANGE god is ANYTHING that replaces the CAUSE and COURSE of God commands toward us and as to all things pertaining to our redemption in Christ Jesus; also, in His PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for a wholly living in matters of doing LIFE and GODLY living in any but not limited as listed here:

Ensuring a healthy Marital Relationships and such like;

Building Friend’s, friendship and Family Matters;

Having an assuring Job and Career;

Ensuring a viable Education and Skill acquisition training;

Offering and giving genuine Leadership and mentoring skills;

Ensuring an exemplary good administration and governance;

Leading a stable Business and Enterprises;

Ensuring and assuring unadulterated Gospel Ministry and ministerial Church;

Building a healthy framework of Politics and Political alliance;

Ensuring a healthy, intelligence and prudence in Financial and Economic Transactions;

And in doing many more such like events in the community of humanity as best known.

If you intend and desire to SUCCEED, TRIUMPH and THRIVE with God, for a colourful, meaningful and fulfilling life, DON’T MAKE or KEEP a STRANGE god or IDOL with you. Set a RIGHTEOUS FOUNDATION with God. For God’s FOUNDATION assures, ensures and enriches ALL who do not have a STRANGE god or IDOL in God’s places in their life. That’s the HOW to live gloriously and TRIUMPHANTLY in an EXALTATION and then soar in DOMINION with the in-built GREATER life of God within us, in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation: but SIN (STRANGE god) is a REPROACH to any people” Proverbs 14:34/Emphasis Mine.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I PERCEIVE that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that FEARETH him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35.

I PRAY FOR GOD’S GRACE, WISDOM, and SPEED in your Life endeavours, making POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT POSSIBLE, through God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“REMEMBER THE DAYS OF OLD, consider the YEARS of many generations: ASK thy father, and he will SHEW thee; thy elders, and they will TELL thee. 8 When the most High DIVIDED to the nations their inheritance, when he SEPARATED the sons of Adam, he set the BOUNDS of the people according to the number of the children of Israel. 9 For the Lord’s portion is His people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance. 10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; He LED him about, He INSTRUCTED him; He KEPT him as the APPLE of his eye. 11 As an EAGLE stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: 12 so the Lord alone did LEAD him, and THERE WAS NO STRANGE GOD WITH him. 13 He MADE him RIDE on the HIGH PLACES of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he MADE him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock; 14 butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape” Deuteronomy 32:7-14/[Acts 17:24-29].

“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is he that is in you, than he that is in the WORLD. 5. They ARE of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6 (Emphasis Mine).

“If the FOUNDATIONS be destroyed, what can the RIGHTEOUS do?” Psalms 11:3.

“Nevertheless the FOUNDATION of God standeth SURE, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let everyone that nameth the name of Christ DEPART from INIQUITY (STRANGE god). 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work” 2 Timothy 2:19-21/Emphasis Mine.

“Therefore whosoever heareth these SAYINGS of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which BUILT his house upon a rock: 25 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was FOUNDED upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it” Matthew 7:24-27.

“Therefore, since we have these [great and wonderful] promises, beloved, let us CLEANSE ourselves from EVERYTHING that CONTAMINATES body and spirit, completing holiness [living a consecrated life—a life set apart for God’s purpose] in the FEAR of God” 2 Corinthians 7:1/Amplified.

“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.

“Now THANKS be to God who ALWAYS LEADS [CAUSES] us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us DIFFUSES [SPREADS, REVEALS] THE FRAGRANCE of His KNOWLEDGE in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14/NKJV.

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

“But THANKS be to God, which GIVETH us the VICTORY through our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Corinthians 15:57.

“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.

AFD YEAR 2026 EDITION

January 1, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

CONGRATULATIONS & WELCOME TO YEAR 2026: HAPPY AND BLESSED YEAR OF TRIUMPHANT LIVING!

“This is the DAY [YEAR] the Lord has MADE ; We will REJOICE and be GLAD in it” Psalms 118:24/NKJV/Emphasis Mine.

The BLESSED YEAR 2026 of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” in the grace in Christ Jesus stead is now here and it’s here to fulfilled the purpose for which came to be in such a time as this in our lives irrespective of whatever any may think and or do. More so, it’s a year that’s scripturally assured by the assured WORD of God, to represents God’s essence in the person of Jesus Christ stead for our Triumph in the grace [1 John 5:7; John 1:1-5, 14], thus indicating our redemption place in the grace to stand and to prophetically [speaking forth] to enact and authentic God’s plan to meaningfully fulfill God’s divine purpose in our humanity.

“We have also A MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY; whereunto ye DO WELL that ye TAKE HEED, as unto a LIGHT that SHINETH in a DARK PLACE, until the day dawn, and THE DAY STAR ARISE IN YOUR HEARTS: 20 knowing this first, that no PROPHECY of the scripture is of any PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. 21 For the PROPHECY came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were MOVED by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:19-21.

I hereby CONGRATULATE you for another opportunity to fulfil purpose. And I hereby WELCOME you and wish you God’s enabling grace, wisdom and speed to do life and live godly in the realm and sphere of enacting the Scripturally ASSURED YEAR 2026 entitled: “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” in every place in Christ JESUS stead. Amen.

My heartfelt thoughts and PRAYERS for you, is that my God and your God, may CROWN the YEAR 2026 with the mandate of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” for you and family and all you loved and cared about, with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE; and may God’s graciousnesss, gracefulness, lovingkindness and blessedness, abound the more with you as He prospers you and keeps you in health and wholeness, even as your soul prospers in grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Thou CROWNEST THE YEAR with thy GOODNESS; and thy PATHS DROP FATNESS (ABUNDANCE). 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 YEAR 2026 to me it’s a year of ensuring that you enact and authenticate “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” in every place in the grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And to do life and live godly in every place in Christ Jesus stead in this CONTEXT of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” are these, but not limited footnotes that’s worth pondering for your perusal:

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” helps you to authenticate your rightful place as an “AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST” without reservation, and to reign and rule in life, under God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [2 Corinthians 5:17-19; Genesis 1:26-28; Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 8:4-8; Psalms 115:15-16; Revelation 1:5-6; Revelation 5:9-10].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” it’s of God, and it’s not of yourself by any means of measures; and it’s of His REDEMPTION plan for us on what Christ Jesus HAD DONE FOR you, He HAD DONE IN you, He’s DOING IN you, He’s DOING THROUGH you and DOING WITH you irrespective, to make you be who you ARE, to have of Him, and to become of Him, in doing life and living godly in humanity under divinity. [2 Corinthians 2:14; Exodus 15:1-21; Colossians 2:1-23).

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” will CAUSE us to live in CHRISTLIKENESS – And this assured essence comes from what God did in Christ Jesus in our redemption. Everything God did in Christ He did it for you and me; not only that, but He set the credit to our account as though we did it—as if we were there. He made it our victor. [Romans 5:1-2, 5-8, 17-21; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” does mean that God can overcome and work through with you in every single circumstance that may befall you to advance His purpose in your life irrespective of your current position and circumstance today. [Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10; Ephesians 1:10-12; Romans 8:31-39].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is much MORE THAN being victorious, because being triumphant is about the Christlikeness that the world sees of God in you in Christ Jesus stead and not the religion and religious sacrilege being displayed. And our kind of triumph in redemption in Christ Jesus is sealed with the blood by the Holy Spirit that’s GIVEN to us and no man can counterfeit and adulterate it even in their sorcery craft. [2 Corinthians 2: 20-22; Romans 5:5-8; John 14:16-17; Ephesians 2:1-21; Acts 8:1-20].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is to exercise the enormous strength in the grace, to be strong, to be powerful, to be mighty, to be great over any forms of oppositions and limitations as an ambassador for Christ Jesus, thereby creating, innovating, exploring and initiating the nature of God for the good of all, without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. [Job 17:9; Philippians 4:13; Ephesians 6:10; Luke 10:19; Zachariah 4:6]

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is to ask or persuade [someone] to do something that needs getting done in midst of all odds without a human fight of strength because it’s already a done deed in Christ Jesus [Philemon 1:6; Luke 18:1-8; John 11:1-46; John 14:12].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING”, to be in charge and control, have influence and have dominion in any particular situation that would have captivated you by any chance. [Genesis 1:26-28; Romans 6:14].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is to enact and authenticate that your redemption in Christ Jesus, being assured through knowledge, that it’s all powerful, unparallel and superior to satan and cohorts arms of modus operandi. [Colossians 1:12-14 NKJV; Ephesians I:7-8; Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 1:4-6; Isaiah 54:13-17; Mark 16:15-20].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is to win, to be victorious; to be an overcomer; to be a more than conquerors; to do life and live godly triumphantly and in such like, in Christ Jesus stead. [1 Corinthians 15:57; Romans 8:37; 2 Corinthians 2:14; Revelation 12:11; 1 John 5:4-5, Colossians 2:1-23].

“TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is to manifest [show forth, reveal] the CHRISTLIKENESS in us in Christ Jesus stead. And that’s to stand up, head up, shoulders high, on the high heels of faith in showing forth the fulness of God to subdue and subject the enemy and cohorts in their craft and wickedness. [Romans 8:18-21; 1 John 3:8, 10; 1 Corinthians 12:7; 2 Corinthians 2:14; Hebrews 4:12-13].

And in this YEAR 2026 , “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” is a matter of CHOICE. It’s yours to determine if you want to live in TRIUMPHANTLY in the grace in every place of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus, or you want to be of the WISH-WASHY group that are wanting to live on a mere PROPHECY because it’s said by someone so special with status, requiring no personal verification and examination to ensure responsibility and accountability for obedience in the scriptures. For there’s a personal responsibility and accountability to ensure and ascertain before compliance if any message being received at such it’s of God, and if it meets their basic scriptural screening expectations or it’s built on sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation that appeals to your circumstances and vulnerability and not after your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead [Acts 17:10-12; I Corinthians 14:16-33].

I have chosen the path of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” in CHRISTLIKENESS in every place, in Christ Jesus; this is in order to experience the FULNESS of God’s grace, wisdom and speed and in His BLESSEDNESS, and activated by the inspiring, revealing and empowering mandate, set for YEAR 2026.

And by the spirit of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” in every place in Christ Jesus, I am assured of God’s assuring WORD that you can advance the Kingdom cause of God and keep the enemy and cohorts at bay. Therefore I employed you in the same, same-like spirit of grace as Apostle Paul stir up the Corinthians Church, to stir you up in this grace:

“We having THE SAME spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore SPEAK” 2 Corinthians 4:13.

I want you to know of a truth that by what Jesus Christ has done and deed, for our redemption, we can prevail, overcome and ensure the “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” mandate in the grace. For as made manifestly in Jesus Christ, who is the Lion of the tribe of Judah that PREVAILED on our behalf, we can live triumphantly in the grace; AS Jesus Christ is the WORD of God, and the word of God is the SWORD of the Spirit that can do a diagnosis of the human tripartite being: spirit, soul and body, we can by God in Christ Jesus stead resolve our challenging problems within our redemption bound, as we do life in the grace by “TRIUMPHANT LIVING”. [Acts 19:20; Revelation 5:5; 1 John 5:7; John 1:1-5, 14; 2 Timothy 3:16; Hebrews 4:12-13].

I therefore announce to you by God, that you can live the realm of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING”, and I now employ you in YEAR 2026 to be that ‘AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST’ in every place in Christ Jesus stead as made to become in redemption by this scriptural context and commendation:

“. . . 20 Now then WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in CHRIST’S STEAD, be ye RECONCILED to God . . .” 2 Corinthians 5:20 [17-21].

I wish you a HAPPY and BLESSED YEAR 2026 in God’s BLESSEDNESS, the year of “TRIUMPHANT LIVING” in the grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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

“Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH US TO TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh MANIFEST the SAVOUR of His KNOWLEDGE by us in EVERY PLACE. 15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: 16 to the one we ARE the SAVOUR of death unto death; and to the other the SAVOUR of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ” 2 Corinthians 2:14-17.

“But thanks be to God, who always LEADS us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us SPREADS and makes EVIDENT EVERYWHERE the sweet FRAGRANCE of the KNOWLEDGE of Him. 15 For we are the SWEET FRAGRANCE of Christ [which ASCENDS] to God, [discernible both] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; 16 to the latter one an aroma from death to death [a fatal, offensive odor], but to the other an aroma from life to life [a vital fragrance, living and fresh]. And who is adequate and sufficiently qualified for these things? 17 For we are not like many, [acting like merchants] peddling God’s word [shortchanging and adulterating God’s message]; but from pure [uncompromised] motives, as [commissioned and sent] from God, we speak [His message] in Christ in the sight of God “ 2 Corinthians 2:14-17/Amplified.

“. . . 15 When He had DISARMED the rulers and authorities [those supernatural forces of evil operating against us], He made a PUBLIC example of them [exhibiting them as captives in His TRIUMPHAL PROCESSION], having TRIUMPHED over them through the cross . . .” Colossians 2:1-23, 18

“Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea . . . 21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea” Exodus 15:1-21.

“For to me, to LIVE is Christ [He is my source of joy, my reason to live] and to die is gain [for I will be with Him in eternity]. 22 If, however, it is to be life here and I am to go on living, this will mean useful and productive service for me; so I do not know which to choose [if I am given that choice]” Philippians 1:21-22/Amplified.

“Come to Him [the risen Lord] as to a LIVING Stone which men rejected and threw away, but which is choice and precious in the sight of God. 5 You [BELIEVERS], like LIVING stones, are being built up into a spiritual house for a holy and dedicated priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices [that are] acceptable and pleasing to God through Jesus Christ . . . 9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a consecrated nation, a [special] people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. Once you were not a people [at all], but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy” 1 Peter 2:4-5, 9-10/Amplified.

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

January 20, 2025 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]: IT’S ABOUT HAVING GOD’S APPROVAL AND NOT MEN’S APPLAUD [HYPER]!

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: 24 whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that He should be holden of it” Acts 2:22-24.

There’s nothing as dangerous as endeavouring to win favour outside the context of anything that has a stand – an ethics and etiquette – that worth priceless. As I have said in some writ, when you take a text out of a context, it becomes a con – and we all know when someone becomes a con person, con artist, conman and such like, we all will naturally distance ourselves from anyone who is already known to be a con in such spheres of doing life except you share in such person acts of behavioural bargains. If we can be able to distance ourselves, how much more when such it’s in conflict with God’s Scriptural CONTEXT and INSTRUCTIONS to our doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And God does not share His glory with mortal men in their hyper and applaud:

“And Herod was highly DISPLEASED with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with ONE ACCORD to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country. 21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, SAT upon his throne, and made an ORATION unto them. 22 And the people gave a SHOUT [APPLAUSE, HYPER], saying, It is the VOICE of a god, and not of a man. 23 And immediately the angel of the Lord SMOTE him, because he GAVE not God the GLORY: and he was EATEN of worms, and gave up the GHOST [DIED]” Acts 12:20-23.

There are many out there who will do anything outside the book to get the applause that men can give them to enable them outdo and undo others – and you can see it in places of doing life – workspaces, factory, business transaction, family circles, Church leadership position, government Offices and other expected civic places that’s – nongovernmental and many such like. For this kind of behaviour, Apostle Paul warned, charged and exhorted young Bishop Timothy, to note that leadership position for example it’s not for self-gains and should not be taken lightly; and people should not for any human reasons on selfish applause be placed in places they are not qualified to be otherwise it will undermine God’s authority and misplaced priority in honouring and magnifying God’s WORD that’s above all things as God had done.

“I CHARGE thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the ELECT angels, that thou OBSERVE these things without PREFERRING one before another, doing nothing by PARTIALITY. 22 LAY HANDS SUDDENLY ON NO MAN, neither be PARTAKER of other MEN’S SINS: keep thyself PURE” 1 Timothy 5:21-22.

“I will worship toward Your holy temple and praise Your name for Your loving-kindness and for Your truth and faithfulness; for You have EXALTED above all else Your NAME and Your WORD and You have MAGNIFIED Your WORD above all Your name!” Psalms 138:2/Amplified Classic Edition.

It’s of this emboldened spirit of getting God’s APPROVAL in all things in context and not just on somethings, that Apostle Peter was speaking of our Lord Jesus Christ in Acts 2:22-24. He was giving an admonishment about our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ – who is the author and finisher of our faith [Hebrews 12:2], and who is our God’s given and living example in doing God’s kingdom business in our earthly affairs [Hebrews 1:1-4], and by whom we ARE God’s ambassador on earth – to note how He ensured that He RECEIVED God’s APPROVAL and not men APPLAUSE, to do God’s given purpose and assignments in humanity [Luke 2:1-2, 14, 16-18, 22]. Jesus Christ cause in humanity was always to get God’s APPROVAL [intent] in every step because He knows, it must always be of the FATHER’S WILL to be done and not MEN’S WILL for egotism, self-gratification and self-centeredness and such like.

“. . . 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear WITNESS of me . . . 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him” John 10:22-38.

Apostle Paul had in his keen interest for us to live through God’s approval and signature in all we do to fulfil purpose and life, in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE. He then charged the Believers of God as you and me and as to Timothy, to endeavour to STUDY, to enable us get God’s APPROVAL [SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT] to a cause, so that we can be able to rightly apply the word of God appropriately in all matters of doing life and living godly. And to be embroidered to stand up against the enemy and cohorts voices when they show up too. For pure wisdom to do life and live godly is the application of knowledge. And where there’s no knowledge of a thing, it’s not only that IGNORANCE WILL PREVAIL, people will ABUSE PURPOSE of the intended. People had abused their relationship [spouses, children, family, friendship] for the lack of knowledge to the cause and context; people had abused position of leadership and authority for lack of knowledge of the context; people do evil and wickedness as abusers to undermine others especially toward the vulnerable and such like because of the lack of the knowledge to the context of the cause; you can name lots of places abuse have taken place or happening right now because of the stupidity and foolishness born out of ignorance to a cause [purpose] – and it’s all for the lack of wisdom – application of knowledge to such cause.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING [APPLYING, HANDLING] the WORD of TRUTH” 2 Timothy 2:15/Emphasis mine.

God wants us to live a life of CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], to enable us be His true ambassador for Christ. And being God’s representative on earth [Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 115:15-18; Psalms 8:4-8; 2 Corinthians 5:20], is not limited to a particular person or nation but to all who intend to do God’s purpose in RIGHTEOUSNESS; meaning those who wants to get on His APPROVED context and not in men trying to use UNRIGHTEOUSNESS to get His APPROVAL for their APPLAUSE. For Gods glory is not to be shared with men. This is the caution and exhortations that Apostle Peter gives of God’s openness to all as He’s not a respecter of men; while Apostle Paul also in a different respective context gave a dire warning to the Believers who wants to be on God’s good book and purpose not to dare God, by using the unrighteousness cause of men to an approval and signature to get God’s righteous approved cause.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that FEARETH him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with Him” Acts 10:34-35.

“For the WRATH of God is REVEALED from heaven AGAINST ALL UNGODLINESS and UNRIGHTEOUSNESS OF MEN, who hold the TRUTH IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 32 who KNOWING the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have PLEASURE in them that do them” Romans 1:18, 32.

Therefore, knowing the danger and wrath of working through men’s crazy approval cause to make you feel important and good while you know you are going to face God’s wrath, why not today, even now, resolved intentionally and pragmatically, to do God’s approved purpose in context unreservedly, by STUDYING the WORD of God like the Berea Christian of Acts 17:10-12 and by taking up Apostle Paul exhortation to Timothy as written in 1 Timothy 4:14-17. These will make you to walk in wisdom – rightly applying the word through knowledge.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto BEREA: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED THE WORD with all READINESS of mind, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES DAILY, whether those things were so. 12 Therefore many of them BELIEVED; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

“But continue thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy SCRIPTURES, which are ABLE TO MAKE THEE WISE unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT [MATURE, COMPLETE, WHOLE], throughly FURNISHED unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17/Emphasis mine.

It’s my PRAYERS that you will not struggle in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], as you do life by ensuring and assuring God’s approval is what’s always in your top heartfelt without men’s approval to your being God’s true Ambassador for Christ.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11.

LIVING IN CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

January 18, 2025 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

LIVING IN CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]: YOU MUST INTENTIONALLY DO AWAY WITH UNBELIEF!

“And to whom SWARE He that they should NOT ENTER into His REST, but to them that BELIEVED NOT? 19 So we see that they could NOT ENTER in because of UNBELIEF” Hebrews 3:18-19.

The good and faithful, true and sure God that we claim to serve acceptably and unreservedly and to worship worthily, in spirit and truth, is the same God that searches the hearts and thoughts of men to ensure that their motives are of a contrite and broken hearts [spirit] all the way. [Psalms 51:17; Psalms 34:18; Isaiah 62:2; Revelation 2:23; Jeremiah 17:10].

And because God does not share His glory with any, hence Lucifer that turns Satan the devil with the third stars call demons were all kicked out of heavens for such enabling thoughts and imagination and worse to have attempted to carry such impossible mission in God’s highly sanctified and consecrated throne of holiness and righteousness. [Ezekiel 28:11-19; Isaiah 14:12-19; Revelation 12:3-5]. God is a jealous God and won’t share His shekinah glory with a mere mortal in the flesh too just as He dealt with devil in the spirit for his complete negligence of the purity and sanctity of the heavenly.

It thus means that the thought of living a life of grace toward God in Christ Jesus with an unbelieving spirit it’s not permissible in the New Creation Church of Christ Jesus as it was not permitted in the Old Creation Church of the wilderness through Moses. [Hebrews 3:18-19; Hebrews 11:6; Romans 4:19-21; Mark 11:20-24]. Unbelief has no place and reckoning in the kingdom of God for any who seeks His heavenly intervention in their earthly affairs in Christ Jesus – it’s always repentance toward God and Faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ [Acts 20:20-21]. It thus means that those who wants to have alternative plan A to plan Z as a rescue plan under God as they have an act of UNBELIEF of God’s enabling in all things that pertains to life and godliness [2 Peter 1:2-5; John 1:12], are living in self-deception and lying to themselves and cohorts. And nothing from God will answers to UNBELIEF state for any cause or context within the Kingdom provisions.

You can’t be set to live the CHRISTLIKENESS life of being CHRISTLIKE by the spirit of UNBELIEF toward God in Christ Jesus. The children of Israel of the Church in the wilderness under Moses, didn’t enter their place of rest in fulfilling God’s purpose for them meaningfully, because of UNBELIEF. An UNBELIEF toward God is worst than any measures of describing a cancerous condition. Thus, indicating that God does not accommodate those who live a double-minded attitude towards His WORD in any context. For such does not receive anything from God irrespective.

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, NOTHING WAVERING. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall RECEIVE ANY THING of the Lord. 8 A DOUBLE MINDED man is unstable in all his ways” James 1:5-8.

“And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:20-24.

It’s impossible to receive anything of God through UNBELIEVE. For God only reward only the act of Faith toward Him in Christ Jesus. And Faith is the de facto of God to be victorious on the earth and be heavenly connected without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. For while we may live in the flesh, our life battle are of faith. We fight the fight of faith. God is of Faith and not of the flesh where unbelief dwell [Hebrews 11:6; 1 John 5:4-5; 2 Corinthians 5:7; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6; 1 Timothy 6:12.].

Do you want a pure rest with God in Christ Jesus in order to obtain your full salvation rights and privileges in redemption? You have to live by the WORD OF FAITH and not that of UNBELIEF. [Romans 10:8-10, 17; Hebrews 6:10-12; Romans 14:23 (Hebrews 10:38; Galatians 3:12; Romans 1:16-17; Habakkuk 2:4)]. Unbelief toward God in Christ Jesus is a self set denial from any good and goodness of God. You can’t serve God with haphazard attitude – you either stick to God fully in His faithfulness or walk away with the default of disappointment that’s set on the place of UNBELIEF [Hebrews 10:23, 35-39].

Therefore, know that in living the CHRISTLIKENESS [being CHRISTLIKE], there’s no place for self-deception and self-gratification through double mindedness toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Any of such that’s contrary to faith toward God is considered an enemy of God which could be any of these:

* The Enemy WITHIN – The Flesh [five senses – hear, see, feel, taste and touch (feel)].

* The Enemy you SEE – The world [and it’s systems].

* The Enemy we KNOW – Satan and cohorts [demons].

* The Enemy we DO – Religion [found through denomination, sectarianism and such like].

It’s my earnest PRAYERS that you walk by faith and not in unbelief toward God [you can search through in many of my writs on faith] to help you learn to walk by faith toward God in Christ Jesus, so that you can find fulfilment and have a meaningful purpose in your doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

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

MIRRORING CHRISTLIKENESS

January 17, 2025 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

MIRRORING CHRISTLIKENESS: SCRIPTURAL TERMS TO OUR BEING CHRISTLIKE IN REALITIES!

Take a glimpse of the Philemon 1:6 scriptures. It gives insight that, one can only be effectual [productive, result oriented], when our Faith communication [declaration, sharing, announcing etc.], is coming from our ability [capacity] to the acknowledgement of the good done IN us [being done through us, being done with us] which is IN Christ Jesus [not the devil’s and demons and Satan’s doings that most of us sees and acknowledge daily and talk about]. The context word is ‘IN’ you ‘IN’ Christ Jesus. And it’s in the acknowledging, enacting and authenticating these scriptural contexts and such like, that makes our definition, and indicates the how to being Christlike – to live in the person of Christlikeness.

“That the communication (SHARING, FELLOWSHIP) of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6 (Emphasis mine).

When you build your being around the good of God that’s done IN you, IN Christ Jesus, you have nothing ever to be crediting and acknowledging to the devil and demons and Satan and cohorts. It’s unfortunate, that most people in their simple acts of prayers are filled up with matters of demons and devils and cohorts as if it’s a wish that the enemy and cohort will always pass through their dwelling places to sign signature daily. – you must never forget that only Father God in Christ Jesus, is OMNIPOTENT, OMNIPRESENT and OMNISCIENCE, and the enemy [the devil] and cohort are not, and they can’t be what God is, as people always purported to booster the devil and demon presence almost in every prayers and spoken word about them.

When you take time to mark these scriptures and use them as your baseline of prayers and speaking forth who you ARE of God in Christ Jesus, you find out that overtime, your life become what you’ve come to acknowledged by the scriptures thereby creating your reality and tangibility in Christlikeness – being Christlike.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
