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 thing. 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 represents 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 representative 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 SERVE acceptably and unreservedly, and to be WORSHIP 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’s 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 possession 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 representative [ambassador]:

  1. 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 is 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].
  2. OMNIPOTENCE – 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.
  3. OMNIPRESENCE – 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 of the 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 a my call to the urgency to help us not to limit God by any measure as the children of Israel did limited 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 into 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 synchronised 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’s, 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 Do and all created things – 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 2024 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 characterised 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 .

Was it not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies were scattered in the desert? 18 And to whom did He swear [an oath] that they would not enter His rest, but to those who disobeyed [those who would not listen to His word]? 19 So we see that they were not able to enter [into His rest—the PROMISED land] because of UNBELIEF and an UNWILLINGNESS to trust in God.” Hebrews 3:17-19 (7-19). Amplified.

BEING CHRISTLIKE

By 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 our redemption as we are admonished by the Scriptures to equally live for a purpose if we must be a 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 SUBJUGATED [SUBDUED] 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 supersedes 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:

“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 any thing 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.

FOR A COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL AND FULFILLING YEAR

By Leave a Comment

FOR A COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL AND FULFILLING YEAR: GEARED 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 had made [Psalms 118:24] as a crowned and prophetically WORD assured year [Psalms 65:11-13; 2 Peter 1:19-21], we have to geared 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 – in DOING LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus, are 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 will triumph victoriously over the world set opposition system contrary to the superiority of God’s WORD defacto 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 you 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 GEARED 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 Savour Jesus Christ, no matter what it takes to SCRIPTURALLY ensure it in context. I mean those, who have and are determined and committed to LEAP over their WALLS of opposition BY THE FORCE OF FAITH. This essence may start small, but as there’s consistent endeavours are geared to ensure that the FAITH IS AT WORK for the 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 holds 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 asked 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 you will DARE and GEARED UP TRIUMPHANTLY to your CHALLENGES and FEARS 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:

FOR BEING CHRISTLIKE IN THE DAWN YEAR

By Leave a Comment

FOR BEING CHRISTLIKE IN THE DAWN YEAR: BUILD YOUR FOUNDATION ON THE WORD AND NOT ON A MERE PROPHECY!

I make bold to say to you that – YOU ARE YOUR OWN PROPHET! You need to – HEAR YOU FIRST BEFORE HEARING OTHERS [ANY] for whatever, otherwise you give up your graciousness to hear God for yourself – For you have and are given the assured WORD of PROPHECY that’s Scripturally based, authentic, unadulterated and available to your reach in Christ Jesus stead to safeguard your from errors and being mistaken. Amen.

“So we HAVE the PROPHETIC WORD made MORE CERTAIN [ASSURED]. You do well to pay [close] attention to it as to a LAMP SHINING in a DARK PLACE, until the DAY DAWNS and light breaks through the GLOOM and the MORNING STAR ARISES in your hearts. 20 But UNDERSTAND this first of all, that NO PROPHECY of Scripture is a matter of or comes from ONE’S OWN [PERSONAL OR SPECIAL] interpretation, 21 for no PROPHECY was ever MADE by an act of HUMAN WILL, but men MOVED by the Holy Spirit SPOKE from God” 2 Peter 1:19-21/Amplified.

And by the indwelling Holy Spirit that’s given to us along with God’s assured prophetic WORD, you can ascertain and EXAMINE for you all PROPHECY/PROPHESYINGS about you, whether it’s scripturally inspired, revealed and empowered or it’s man-made make-believe [make-belief] to suit sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation [Romans 5:5; John 14:16-17; Romans 8:14-17; 1 Corinthians 14:26-33] THINK ABOUT IT NOW!

Do I believe in Prophecy? Do I believe in Prophesying? Yeah, I do – 100% [1 Corinthians 14:36-40; 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21]; but not in a WISHY-WISHY, MAKE-BELIEF for sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation in taking advantage of people in their vulnerability to show up spiritism as being spiritual.

“QUENCH not the Spirit. 20 DESPISE NOT PROPHESYINGS. 21 PROVE ALL THINGS; hold fast that which is good” 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21.

“But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. 39 Wherefore, brethren, COVET TO PROPHESY, and FORBID not to speak with tongues. 40 Let ALL THINGS be done DECENTLY and in ORDER” 1 Corinthians 14:38-40.

However, I don’t believe in a man-made make-up belief appeal to human sentiments and the extortion of people in their vulnerability for self-gratifications in order to make such called Prophecy or Prophesying authentic and genuine, when it’s all of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation and such like – especially in this days of sorcery and spells in the name of the Lord, on the vulnerable as a whole city of Samaria was given to sorcery in the Bible days to one Sorcerer Simon claiming the mighty one in the name of God [Acts 8:9-26].

Also, on matters of prophecy and prophesying, it DOES mean on which CONTEXT you are asking me and on which I am answering you of any so-called prophetic message. The scripture did admonish us not to despise Prophesying (Prophecy) [1 Thessalonians 5:20 (19-21)] and to covet to prophesy – [1 Corinthians 14:38-40]. And I can’t afford to break God’s WORD in this context. That’s why I can say that I believe in Prophecy and or Prophesying. For Prophecy or Prophesying, is one of the INSPIRATIONAL gifts of the Holy Spirit for the New Creation Believer’s in Christ Jesus as may be led and inspired by the Holy Spirit – [1 Corinthians 12:10]. And the scripture admonishes that when we come together in fellowship, we should allow and let each Prophesy as gifted and as they are led by the Holy Spirit, while considering each other Prophesy in decency, order and not in schism, which is division, confusion and discord. [1 Corinthians 14:26-33]. So, on the scriptural context, I do truly believe in Prophecy and Prophesying.

I want you to know full well that in the OLD TESTAMENT, the people then of that dispensation, weren’t BORN AGAIN and where not SPIRIT-FILLED too, to enable them to know God for themselves without a reliance on the PROPHETS and PRIESTS and LEVITES and KINGS and others in use for guidance on the religious rites and ordinance and civic leadership; and it was challenging for those of the OLD TESTAMENT, because there was no written writ guidance for God’s people to examine [judge] in order to know the truth and what a genuine Prophesying and Prophecy could be. Their own basic information was only the God’s warning signals against the false prophets, who goes about saying what God had not commanded or ordered them to say as in the scriptures enjoined [Jeremiah 23:26-32; Deuteronomy 18:15-22; Deuteronomy 13:1-5].

Also, since God’s people have nothing to read or study to know for guidance and or to confirm of anything for genuity in terms of doing life and living godly, the hallmark bar was higher since such gifting wasn’t to all; for the people of God in the Old Testament had to rely solely on the Prophet for the prophetic WORD from God, which sometimes, some of these seer Prophet’s took advantage of God’s people just as Balaam did and used the  gifting as a means for covetousness, greed, extortion thereby projecting false doctrines and faith perversions. [Numbers 22-24; 2 Peter 2:15-16; Jude 1:10-12; Revelation 2:14; Galatians 1:6-9].

Unlike the Old Testament prophet who were not born again and the Spirit have to come upon them when the necessity arises, and there was no written word to ascertain the TRUTH and the people weren’t born again too –  the New Creation Testament, there’s now the WRITTEN WORD and the people who are born of God, and have the indwelling Holy Spirit within them just as the one who claims to be a Prophet or Prophetess. This enables the New Creation, which you ARE, if you are born of God in Christ Jesus, to know what falsehoods looks like because the given Holy Spirit and the available written WORD of God to ascertain all things, without reservations. Meaning there’s default to help to check and detect any nonsense that people will do in the name of PROPHECY and PROPHESYING, except you the individual gives room to such FALSEHOODS and the permission to be exploited ignorantly; and this we know that such opportunities wasn’t possible in Old Testament where it only comes upon the Prophet for a moment in time of use, who were also not born of God to have the Holy Spirit dwelling in them to ascertain what’s the wheat from the chaff [John 14:16-17; Romans 8:9-12; Jeremiah 23:28 (26-32)]. The New Creation Believers of God in Christ Jesus stead, are at a better advantage in such a time now that none can just lie or deceive God’s people when they yield totally and completely to the WORD that prevails over all. [Acts 19:20; Acts 20:32; 2 Peter 1:19-21; Matthew 22:29; Hebrews 4:12-13; Hebrews 11:3].

It thus mean that every New Creation Believers in Christ Jesus is a carrier of his or her own PROPHETIC WORD within the WORD of God. You spiritual obligation is to research out on any form of Prophecy or Prophesying that comes to you by the WORD of God, for your own self discovery and recovery by the indwelling Holy Spirit. That is to say that by the WORD, you need to know on how to be INSTRUCTED in order to affirm and confirm to any form of spoken prophecy that comes to you irrespective of who is speaking to your life, knowing that they are so many spells , sorcery, adulteration and perversions everywhere today. And by the Holy Spirit within you, which is working with our human intuitive spirit, we can know the TRUTH by the WORD, in order to avoid errors and not to be misled and misguided; also, when it’s an external spoken word of prophecy by WHOSOEVER, one can by the same process of the written WORD, be able to EXAMINE to make conclusion from such errors many have fallen into today. [1 Corinthians 14:16-33].

And once the Holy Spirit within you ascertain that a PROPHETIC WORD is truth, definitely an inner PEACE is experience accordingly without bondage, thereby bears the witness that it’s of God; and if otherwise, you know it’s manipulation, craft, pervert and deceptive of man, tradition and religious sentiments against God’s WORD. And it means that God is not in it and there’s no LIGHT in it and you MUST not WALK with it and on it, otherwise it’s darkness leading to bondage, torment, fear phobia, misguide and such like.  Isaiah 8:10, 16, 20.

Every genuine WORD-BASED message must be carrying this sum class category of the spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 12:7-11). The message will be:

* Inspiring

* Revealing and

* Empowering

And every of the inspiring, revealing and empowering WORD-BASED messages must reflect this PROPHETIC sense of lead that’s of God otherwise it’s not God (1 Corinthians 14:3-5):

* Edification

* Exhortation, and

* Comfort

And all genuine prophecy or prophesying will lead and point and testify of Jesus in all He’s to you in redemption and not toward self for applaud and egotism and self-gratification.

“And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the TESTIMONY of Jesus: WORSHIP God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the spirit of PROPHECY” Revelations 19:10.

And the WORD message must lead one toward TESTIFYING of Jesus Christ; for in Him all things consist of our REDEMPTION and toward Him should all Prophecy be about in all that pertains to life and godliness in respect of what He’s done FOR us, done IN us, He’s doing IN us and THROUGH us by the Holy Spirit in the WORD as the pointer for all things. Meaning any such call prophetic message is not to point to any other in respect to – man, visioner, title, status, denomination and such like, as we’ve seen many have been taken hold of religiously today rather than of FAITH toward God and His Christ Jesus. [Acts 20:20-21; Revelation 19:10; Hebrews 1:1-4; Hebrews 12:2; Luke 24:25-27, 44-45; John 1:45; Matthew 16:13-20; Matthew 22:41-46].

Therefore, to safeguard your year in this year 2024, there’s the need to begin the year on this brand new dawn year of BEING TRIUMPHANT IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS; having a gracious footing rather than waiting, seeking and pursuing after PROPHECY and PROPHESYING or and looking for one to prophecy to, in order to make you feel good and better. Ensuring the WORD as our foundation and fundamental stand in grace, will help one to PREVAIL and TRIUMPH over all challenging times when you allow the WORD to work it out for you.

Dear friend and beloved of God in Christ Jesus stead, it’s the DAWN of the anticipated human – MORTALITY – GREGORIAN and JULIAN timed calendar of the YEAR of the Lord tagged 2025; and the YEAR 2025 first month of the GREGORIAN and JULIAN calendar – JANUARY 2025 has began. There is therefore now no more excuses for PROCRASTINATION, PRESUMPTION, FOOLISHNESS, BAD COMPANIONSHIP and ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY; it’s your time to arise in GRACE and FAITH to get on with the SMART WORK of spirited DILIGENCE and PRUDENCE in the grace – for it’s time to SEIZE the day in our set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT that’s evolved and enveloped in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS, wherein we are JUSTIFIED to have ACCESS and a STAND to being CHRISTLIKE in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“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.

It’s time to RISE UP and get on with the assigned work – with no room given for procrastination, presumption and foolishness. And honestly and indeed, there’s no room for the SLUGGARD, SLOTHFUL, LAZY BUTT and WISHY-WASHY ATTITUDE and keeping BAD COMPANIONSHIP and ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY friendship, if we must attain to our ALTITUDE and the set an onward and upward YEAR 2025 trajectory. And if we must be CHRISTLIKENESS [being CHRISTLIKE], then hear when He said, My Father WORK, therefore I WORK, though being the author and life finisher of the FAITH we have of Him except we are about living on FATE. Let’s learn of Him to do life and godly living in humanity and mortality in fulfilling purpose meaningfully.

“But Jesus answered them, “My Father has been WORKING until now [He has never ceased working], and I too am WORKING” John 5:17/Amplified.

“LOOKING unto Jesus the AUTHOR and FINISHER of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God” Hebrews 12:2.

And in this our journey to OBTAIN, POSSESS and ENACT and AUTHENTICATE God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in the dawn YEAR of the Lord, there’s the need to know your purpose for living otherwise you will be beating round the bush and would be playing a blame game on every things that goes wrong that you can’t figure out. For a life live WITHOUT PURPOSE is not only frustrating and destructive, it’s self-harming and boring and aimless. No Believer named after God in Christ Jesus [CHRISTLIKENESS – Being CHRISTLIKE], should live a purposeless life under God. For we are called for a purpose and in that’s how we find fulfilment and meaningful living in the grace.

“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.

“In Him also we have received an inheritance [a DESTINY—we were claimed by God as His own], having been PREDESTINED (CHOSEN, APPOINTED beforehand) according to the PURPOSE of Him who works everything in agreement with the COUNSEL and design of His WILL, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him as our Lord and Savior] would exist to the praise of His glory” Ephesians 1:11-12/Amplified.

And for one to FULFILL meaningfully the intended results, lets LEARN of our Saviour and Lord Christ Jesus – meaning, to be in the CHRISTLIKENESS [Being CHRISTLIKE], for He live in humanity fulfilling purpose, the cause for which He was born and came into this world to save humanity.

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this PURPOSE the Son of God was MANIFESTED, that he might DESTROY the WORKS of the devil” 1 John 3:8.

“Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I BORN, and for this CAUSE came I into the world, that I should bear WITNESS unto THE TRUTH. Every one that is of THE TRUTH heareth my voice” John 18:37.

“For the Son of man is COME to SEEK and to SAVE that which was LOST” Luke 19:10

Jesus Christ was and He’s our DAWN DAY LIGHT for every DARK PLACES and the DAY STAR for the directions we need in the DAWN YEAR and the DAWN MONTH JANUARY. And by the assuring WORD of God and being spirited the heartedness of “BEING CHRISTLIKE in every place in Christ Jesus stead, we can find the full beam of light on our dawn Month and Year to illuminate our path by the WORD of God that’s ASSUREDLY given to us. [2 Peter 1:19-21; John 1:1-5; 2 Corinthians 4:6; Proverbs 4:18; John 8:12; John 9:5].

Therefore, it’s time to wake up, get out of slumbering acts of nursing whatever – be it the past mistakes, failures and or success, and seized your moments NOW on a new dawn:

  1. For PROCRASTINATION is not just a THIEF of TIME, but the SLUGGARD and SLOTHFUL and LAZY PERSON [BUTT] pure excuse to avoid taking the needed responsibility and accountability to fulfil purpose
  2. By taking the PRINCIPLE of the WORD of God towards the spirit of DILIGENCE (smartly and consistency to the given assignment) and PRUDENCE (the management of God’s given resources) to do life and live godly.
  3. And to avoid creating an atmosphere for ENTITLEMENT as an act of apology for FAILURE as if it’s someone else’s cause or curse on you, when they is enormous opportunity for SUCCESS and FULFILMENT opportunity in DOING LIFE and GODLY LIVING by God in Christ Jesus stead about you.

You are the DEFINITION and CUSTODIAN of your happiness and satisfaction, therefore, don’t start the new dawn MONTH and dawn YEAR by been weakened; but put on the strength and wisdom counsel of the Lord God as being received right now in this publication post you are reading.

I pray for you, that God’s GRACE, WISDOM and SPEED to abound according to the scriptures, and to enable you to do life and live FULFILLED as you set out to THRIVE and not to be a SURVIVAL in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

TAKING ON THE DAWN YEAR

By Leave a Comment

TAKING ON THE DAWN YEAR: WRITE GOD’S GIVEN VISION DOWN – READ TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU RUN – TO ATTAIN TO THAT DESIRED TRAJECTORY!

“I will STAND upon my WATCH, and set me upon the tower, and will WATCH to see what he will SAY unto me, and what I shall ANSWER when I am reproved. 2 And the Lord ANSWERED me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN (SIMPLIFIED, READABLE AND UNDERSTANDABLE) upon TABLES (BLUEPRINT), that he may RUN THAT READETH it. 3 For THE VISION is yet for an APPOINTED TIME, but at the END it shall SPEAK, and NOT LIE: though it TARRY, WAIT for it; because it will SURELY come, IT WILL NOT TARRY. 4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by his FAITH” Habakkuk 2:1-4/Emphasis Mine.

God wants you to DARE to LIVE and BECOME in His PURPOSE for your life in CHRISTLIKENESS [Being CHRISTLIKE] in EVERY PLACE in Christ Jesus stead; thus indicating, that wherever the sole of your feet should step upon, you can POSSESS for an inheritance in Christ Jesus stead. Amen [Joshua 1:3-9; Hebrews 6:10-12; Deuteronomy 1:6-8]. And to achieve and advance in this year, in God’s Kingdom mandate cause and to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay, and to fulfill PURPOSE meaningfully in LIFE and GRACE, you need to:

  1. WRITE the year set VISION DOWN
  2. MAKE it PLAIN – simplified and not in complexity
  3. READ to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the vision context
  4. RUN with GRACE, WISDOM and SPEED has been given in the BLUEPRINT in the principle of responsibility and accountability.

And when you can say the above vision layout in motion, you can then sing the Hallelujah songs! That’s the PRINCIPLE to apply in the heavenly mandate in all that pertains to doing life and living godly in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead if you must live in the CHRISTLIKENESS [Being CHRISTLIKE] otherwise you are out for self and such like.

Lets take a lesson from JESUS CHRIST [Luke 4:1-22] for our CHRISTLIKENESS [Being CHRISTLIKE], who have to live through PURPOSE to fulfil meaningfully the cause for which He was come to save and reconcile humanity to Father God as assigned [1 John 3:8; John 18:37, John 9:4; John 4:34]: One thing you can learn or take away from our Saviour and Lord Jesus, is this – that it’s healthier to take 30years where POSSIBLE to WRITE and READ the VISION as Jesus did, then RUN with the READ and UNDERSTOOD VISION as in His three and half years Ministry of fulfilling PURPOSE – the CAUSE that the Father God commissioned Him in His EARTHLY – HUMANITY – mandate.

It may seem 30yrs may be long, but it was rather BETTER than RUNNING aimlessly without purpose for thirty-three and half years as some may do and have been doing, and have no meaningful, purposeful, colourful and fulfilling heavenly backed up achievement, in DOING LIFE and GODLY LIVING. In Luke 4:1-22, He took His time to be LED by the Holy Spirit to SEEK the Father God for His PURPOSE on earth, rather than by self-ego and spiritual show off. And He returned [Luke 4:14] from that Father God’s presence in the POWER of the Holy Spirit that LED Him there and not in emptiness and noise making shadowing. And in Luke 4:16-20, the PURPOSE of Father God as received while with Him, was layed bare [out] and MADE known and manifest, with clarity [without distortion, adulteration, oblique or blurred etc] and opened, Scripturally based with context, for all to examined and be assured. And in Luke 4:22, He began to SPEAK FORTH, GRACIOUS WORDS, over the entirety of His set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT to fulfill the vision caught for human redemption.

“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was LED by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days He did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered . . . 14 And Jesus RETURNED in the POWER of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. 15 And he TAUGHT in their synagogues, being GLORIFIED of all. 16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, AND STOOD UP FOR TO READ. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath ANOINTED me to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and RECOVERING of sight to the blind, to SET AT LIBERTY them that are bruised, 19 to PREACH the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE FULFILLED in your ears. 22 And all bare Him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED OUT OF HIS MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:1-22.

I say to you that wants to live in CHRISTLIKENESS [Being CHRISTLIKE] in doing life and living godly, to take time out to note of any of this life touching matters about you that WORTH pondering and needs to be PURPOSEFULLY addressed in the context of PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT:

** Marital Worth adventures

** Business Enterprising Adventures

** Family Well-being Adventures

** Career Pursuit Adventures

** Ministerial Calling Adventures

** Political Governance Adventures

** Academic Acquisition Adventures

** Healthy and Healthy Living Adventures

** . . . and many such like.

All these mentioned above are WORTH pondering in the light of the SCRIPTURES for you to THRIVE in grace rather than being a SURVIVAL in SCRIPTURAL ignorance. Put your need as a matter of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY in PRINCIPLE to make a blue print first so that SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS PONDERING IN CONTEXT will be meaningful and purposeful as you take on the dawn year all the way.

YOUR DAWN YEAR IS HERE – WRITE THE VISION DOWN – READ BEFORE YOU RUN – TO ENABLE YOU TO ATTAIN THAT SET TRAJECTORY YOU CRAVE TO OBTAIN IN LIFE AND GODLINESS IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“I will STAND upon my WATCH, and set me upon the tower, and will WATCH to see what he will SAY unto me, and what I shall ANSWER when I am reproved. 2 And the Lord ANSWERED me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN (SIMPLIFIED, READABLE AND UNDERSTANDABLE) upon TABLES (BLUEPRINT), that he may RUN THAT READETH it. 3 For THE VISION is yet for an APPOINTED TIME, but at the end it shall SPEAK, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, IT WILL NOT TARRY. 4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:1-4/Emphasis Mine.

“. . . EVERY PLACE that the SOLE of your foot shall TREAD upon, that have I GIVEN unto you, as I said unto Moses” Joshua 1:1-3.

“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.

“It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. 33 He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and SETTETH me upon my HIGH PLACES” Psalms 18:32-33 (2 Samuel 22:32-34).

“. . . The Lord God is my STRENGTH, and he will MAKE my feet like HINDS’ feet, and he will make me to WALK upon mine HIGH PLACES” Habakkuk 3:17-19.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS (UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL) to FORGET your WORK and LABOUR of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have MINISTERED to the saints, and do minister. 11 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 6:10-12.

“The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7 turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. 8 BEHOLD, I HAVE SET THE LAND BEFORE YOU: GO IN AND POSSESS THE LAND WHICH THE LORD SWARE UNTO YOUR FATHERS, ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND JACOB, TO GIVE UNTO THEM AND TO THEIR SEED AFTER THEM” Deuteronomy 1:6-8.

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 any thing 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.

THE DAWN YEAR MONTH – JANUARY 2025: “BEING CHRISTLIKE”!

As we’ve delved into year 2025 and the month of beginning January 2025 with all hopes and aspirations in our various assembly’s, what’s your set label or sticker that will be your innermost consciousness defining your outward manifestation of God’s grace, to mark you out and to give you focus, the sense of stability, the sense of fulfilling purpose with God without distractions and as the guide lamp to carry you through the good and challenging times of the year and month as may be applicable in times. Have you thought of that? For me is to “BEING CHRISTLIKE”.

To some, their classic label is just to prosper, have enough material gains, have several avenues of making money and to have the best that the world have ever known to qualify them at the top seating places in “Church” to enable them show forth whatever they have accumulated and probably to get a special car parking spot, and others with several unimaginable. And they will do things that are not good to hear, by the way they pray, attend all kinds of places that the CHRISTLIKE won’t even dare think or imagine – just because of the lies they have been told by the megaphones that they listen to and less ears to God, because as for them this is their year for whatever is going on within them , anything that tends to be a stopper is sentence to death by any means – case close – because it’s by fire, fireworks, and force and any means. Is that you? I mean you in Christ Jesus. Thinking that way? Planning new strategies even if it means defrauding by any available scheme, so long as you’ve gotten what you want to booster your appetite? Wherein is the CHRISTLIKENESS Beloved of God!

“But the PATH of the JUST is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. 19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. 20 My son, ATTEND TO MY WORDS; INCLINE THINE EAR UNTO MY SAYINGS. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” Proverbs 4:18-23.

I am taking my time to redress myself of who Jesus is and His purpose and commission towards me so that I can be CHRISTLIKE in living for a purpose with fulfilment as an AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST. And at the same time, I am unveiling myself to know MORE of the Disciples of Christ Jesus that turns Apostle’s to know how they live to be CHRISTLIKE and were fulfilled in grace without such a high level of controversy that made many turn away from Christ; because I perceived and I foresee a future that will be defined by the Pentecostal religion if not already at work, wherein Christ Jesus is no longer the core, and only centre heart message and central place for all to serve God unreservedly, acceptably and to worship Him worthily; instead God and His Christ will be mentioned as a passing messages while matters of accumulation of things, titles by names, wealth pointing and success toward men and not after God and His Christ in pure essence, becomes the order being set with drama’s will becomes a norm and acceptable denominational doctrine overtime as if it’s scriptural. YOU NEED TO PAUSE. CHECK YOUR SPEED NOW before you become one who lives outside CHRISTLIKENESS.

Herein are things to know about the DISCIPLES of Christ Jesus. I hope you learnt something as the year comes along and you hear various megaphones making noise to ears and the boundless social media effects and nationalised multimedia newspaper and Television feedlines reels and such like:

“And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they ASSEMBLED themselves with the church, and TAUGHT much people. And the DISCIPLES were called CHRISTIANS first in Antioch” Acts 11:26.

The Disciple’s of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, who were literally living the CHRISTLIKE life to the fulness in their manner of doing life and living godly were nicknamed by others as CHRISTIANS – as followers of Christ Jesus and His teaching. It was a derogatory label then, even though over the years it’s become more norm than to say I am born of God and disciples of Christ Jesus to avoid being categorised. However, that’s the world labelling and image and emerging concept of analysing who the Believer’s in Christ Jesus faith is all about [Acts 11:25-26; Acts 26:27-29; 1 Peter 4:15-16].

While on the other hand, the disciples of Christ Jesus face severe persecution and the Church then wasted by one man who labelled them under the tyranny of the state as created by the learned Brother Saul, who later because Apostle Paul, and who with his caucus labelled Christ disciples of his time then as People of: “THIS WAY”, “THE WAY” , “THAT WAY” [Acts 9:1-2; Galatians 1:1-24; Acts 19:19, 23;  Acts 24:14, 22-23]. Using various naming to disregard Believer’s. I know he rather soonest you may have made a meme, just stand in the faith as representing of the God’s of heaven.

A CHRISTIAN, you say you ARE? You must come to realise under what umbrella are you acclaiming it, otherwise it becomes another religious remarks you carry thinking it’s heavenly not knowing you’ve teased on a reason – and it’s the reason I am after for you to know and actual and escape from as many of the do so many religion we do that’s not CHRISTLIKE but to fulfil human righteousness and not that which is of God [Romans 10:1-5]; You must know then that you ARE born of God and you ARE of God and you ARE God’s vehicle and vessel of change, in changing and influencing lives and making an effectual difference for the good of others, for God in Christ Jesus stead. And the label should be you are CHRISTLIKE. And your being born of God means then you ARE Christ FOLLOWER, SOLDIER of Christ, Christ WITNESS, MISSIONARY and AMBASSADOR of God in Christ Jesus stead. You can ARISE today and let it be that you are living for who you ARE of God in Christ Jesus stead not just what you are nicknamed as you take on the challenges of the faith in the grace.

My first understanding of the word ‘CHRISTIAN’ as to becoming a Christian is to understand that:

*It was a derogatory nickname given to those who are and were genuinely followers, witness and Missionary of Christ as in the book of Acts epistles. [Acts 11:26; Acts 26:27-29; 1 Peter 4:15-17].

*And when you take the word CHRIST out of the word CHRISTIAN, you are left with ‘IAN’. And ‘IAN’  means to me – ‘I AM NOTHING’. Meaning, one is of no WORTH, but ONLY in WORTH, because of Christ in you and you in Him. Otherwise, it’s religion, sectarianism, dogmas and religious bondage and tradition of men.

Christ Jesus NEVER called His own born of God children the term – Christian, instead He called us as He called them in scriptural context – DISCIPLE, FOLLOWER, SOLDIER, WITNESS, MISSIONARY and AMBASSADOR of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

The word Christian is an illusion that has been purported for too long that what it designated then at the first use toward followers of Christ Jesus is not what it does indicates and represents to many people today. Today, loads of people claims to be Christian’s because they found themselves in one religious Church while they live contrary to the context of the Gospel of God in Christ Jesus stead, but when there’s a trial of their faith in Christ Jesus, they will almost deny it not arbitrary abandoned their acclaimed faith.

“But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters. 16 Yet if any man suffer as a CHRISTIAN, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. 17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?” 1 Peter 4:15-17.

Are you just called a Christian or you are indeed a – DISCIPLE, FOLLOWER, SOLDIER, WITNESS, MISSIONARY and an AMBASSADOR of God in Christ Jesus stead. It’s your choice to align yourself today for your reality as you do life and living godly in God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

DID YOU SAY YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN – I HOPE YOU KNOW GENUINELY WHAT IT OUGHT TO MEAN TO ENABLE YOU THAT’S BORN OF GOD AS CALLED TO LIVE THE CHRISTLIKE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. 3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that WARRETH entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a SOLDIER” 2 Timothy 2:1-4.

“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

“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.

“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was LED by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered . . . 14 And Jesus returned in the POWER of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. 15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all . . . 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to preach the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of His mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?”. Luke 4:1-22 [Matthew 4:1-11].

“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 any thing 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.

CONGRATULATIONS – WELCOME TO YEAR 2025: HAPPY AND BLESSED YEAR 2025!

CONGRATULATIONS – WELCOME TO YEAR 2025: HAPPY AND BLESSED YEAR 2025!

YEAR 2025 is the year entitled “CHRISTLIKENESS!” – meaning a year to live “CHRISTLIKENESS!” in every place of doing life and living godly, in order to ensure God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. More so, it’s a year that’s scripturally assured by the assured WORD of God represents God’s presence in the person of Jesus Christ [1 John 5:7; John 1:1-5, 14], indicating it’s prophetic to enact and authentic it’s presence and essence to meaningfully fulfill God’s divine purpose in 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 CONGRATULATE you and WELCOME you and WISHING 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 2025 of – “CHRISTLIKENESS” in every place in Christ Jesus. Amen.

It’s my heartfelt thoughts and PRAYERS that my God, your God may CROWN the YEAR 2025 with CHRISTLIKENESS for you and family and all you loved and cared about, with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE; and may God’s graciousness and 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.

YEAR 2025 to me it’s a year of living the “CHRISTLIKENESS” in every place in Christ Jesus. And to live in CHRISTLIKENESS in every place in Christ Jesus in this context are these, but not limited to the following:

** It makes you a full “AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST” 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].

** To know that CHRISTLIKENESS is of God and 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).

** To know that it’s God that 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].

** To know that CHRISTLIKENESS 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. [Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10; Ephesians 1:10-12; Romans 8:31, 37].

** To know that CHRISTLIKENESS is much MORE THAN being victorious, because CHRISTLIKENESS is about the Christ that the world sees of God in you and not the religion and religious sacrilege being displayed to make people believe that the seen is of God as in their FACT to showcase signs of victory and celebrations and for us to take it so accordingly – and especially when there’s a bit of Oomph to seal it, just as you do see in sports for example – where medals🏅 are given on a platform to celebrate. And our CHRISTLIKENESS 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].

** To be CHRISTLIKENESS is to have the enormous strength, to be strong, to be powerful, to be mighty, to be great over any forms of oppositions and limitations by an ambassador of creating, innovating exploring and initiating the nature of God for the good off all and irrespective [Job 17:9; Philippians 4:13; Ephesians 6:10; Luke 10:19; Zachariah 4:6]

** To be in CHRISTLIKENESS is to ask or persuade (someone) to do something that needs getting done in midst of all odds without a fight of strength because it’s done in Christ Jesus [Luke 18:1-8; John 11:1-46; John 14:12].

** To be in CHRISTLIKENESS, to get 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].

** To be in CHRISTLIKENESS is to enact and authenticate that redemption in Christ Jesus is powerful, unparallel and superior to satan and cohorts arms of operandi. [Colossians 1:12-14 NKJV; Ephesians I:7-8; Revelation 5:9-10; Isaiah 54:13-17].

** To be in CHRISTLIKENESS is to win, to be victorious; to be an overcomer; to be a more than conquerors; to be triumphant and 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].

** To manifest [show forth, reveal] the CHRISTLIKENESS is 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 2025, it’s a CHOICE if you want to live in CHRISTLIKENESS 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 and requiring no personal responsibility and accountability if such is of God, so long it meets their basic expectations 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 CHRISTLIKENESS in every place in Christ Jesus, in order to experience the FULNESS of God’s grace, wisdom and speed and in His BLESSEDNESS by the inspiring, revealing and empowering mandate, set for YEAR 2025. And by the spirit of CHRISTLIKENESS in every place in Christ Jesus, I know I that through CHRISTLIKENESS I am assured of God’s assuring WORD that I can endeavour to advance the Kingdom cause of God and to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay. I therefore also employ you in the same, same-like spirit of grace as Apostle Paul will say to stir up the Corinthians Church in this wise:

“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 in His did and deed in our redemption, we can prevail by “THE PREVAILING WORD” that’s made manifest in humanity – for Jesus Christ, is the Lion of the tribe of Judah that PREVAILED over all; He’s the WORD of God; He’s the SWORD of the Spirit that can do a diagnosis of the human tripartite being of – spirit, soul and body – resolving all problems within for our TRIUMPH. [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 by God, that you can live the realm of CHRISTLIKENESS, and I now employ you in YEAR 2025 to be an ‘AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST’ in every place in Christ Jesus in 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 2025 in God’s BLESSEDNESS 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

“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.

“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.
