MONTH NOVEMBER – THE 11TH HOUR MONTH: THE MONTH OF “NEVER-THE-LESS” – TURNING A MESS TO A MESSAGE – AT GOD’S WORD! 

The month of NOVEMBER is crucial as any other month in the dawn year, because it re-echoes and reminds me as some others, of some important matters and thoughts in the year as described in these settings: 

  • FIRSTLY, NOVEMBER is the eleventh and penultimate month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars, the fourth and last of four months to have a length of 30 days and the fifth and last of five months to have a length of fewer than 31 days. It is the last month of fall in the Northern Hemisphere of the world while In the southern half, it is the last month of spring. 
  • SECONDLY, the month of NOVEMBER is the third of the four months with the “BER” endings – SeptemBER, OctoBER, NovemBER, and DecemBER. This signifies the eleventh hour month to the closing of the year to usher in another year; and for me as an example, it helps me as matter of diligence, prudence and productivity toward ensuring a meaningful and purposeful fulfilment in the closure of the dawn year; and to evaluate what the year has been and what I need to make up that’s lacking within and without, in order to end up strong and stronger in the dawn year; and to take stock of the outstanding testimonies in God’s graciousnesss, gracefulness and blessedness toward me, family, ministry and all I care about which includes you that’s reading this writ right now, in the course of doing life and living godly, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 
  • And THIRDLY, which is above all thus mentioned in setting, is that Month NOVEMBER been the ELEVEN month of the year, it engages my thoughts with the spirit of the ELEVEN PERSONS IN THE MAKING OF A FOOTBALL TEAM that needs to work together in a common purpose with a team spirit in order to achieve a common results as a team, irrespective of personal terms involved – meaning, an aim to achieve results together and collectively as a team rather than as an individual. The team spirit and togetherness, speaks of unity, one accord and one purpose and common focus. And it takes a sense of MATURITY to make such happen with others. That’s what Simon did in Luke 5:6-7 by beckoning on others to come forth to achieve together before their net break. And with such essence, we can apply it in all situations, be it in family, relationship, local Church assembly, business, entrepreneurship, governance, career pursuit, leadership of any kind and such like. Psalm 133:1-3. We are better at fulfilling our purpose meaningfully together than as lone individuals. It’s when we work as a team than as a lone individual with a common and collective call, that matters in life and grace to ensure a more meaningful and fulfilment in a given purpose; and that’s the how to make us good in all goodness rather than playing the lone person dice knowing that A BUNCH OF BROOM WILL SWEEP WELL BETTER THAN A SINGLE STRING OF BROOM. And in the word of the Scripture: 

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. 10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. 11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?” Ecclesiastes 4:9-11. 

The month NOVEMBER as themed to be Month of “NEVERTHELESS” at God’s WORD, enabling to act differently for a different and intrigue results in the midst of absolute failure. It thus indicates – the essence of exercising FAITH on the WORD of God as written or revealed upon the possible and impossible situation, in order to get the necessary helps and to receive the enabling grace and wisdom to turn our scarce and scarcity to abundance, our failure to success, our mess to message, our begging to giving, our toil and toiling to productive result and such like. And FAITH on the WORD OF FAITH in Christ Jesus stead, is the stand to take in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, in this month NOVEMBER.  

“. . . 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, AND HAVE TAKEN NOTHING: NEVERTHELESS, AT THY WORD I WILL LET DOWN THE NET. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a GREAT MULTITUDE OF FISHES: and their net brake . . .” Luke 5:1-11. 

You may have struggled through in life and especially this year to see that the last ten months just ending with October hasn’t been FRUITFUL as expected with all inputs that you’ve put in; and you are at the present moment at the verge of packing up the marriage, business, career, family, leadership, ministerial calling, relationship of all kind, self-worth and such like. I am here as God’s messenger and ambassador by His grace in Christ Jesus stead, to announce to you that your TOILING is over as you take a step of FAITH upon God’s WORD in spite of all the happenings around you today, for an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory as you declare – NEVERTHELESS IN MY TOILING THUS FAR, I WILL LET DOWN THE NET AT GOD’S WORD, FOR HIS CATCH. 

I pray that as we begin to unfold the graces of God considering the thought in this context for Month NOVEMBER theme, may you find inspiration, revelation, and empowerment in this edition of – “NEVERTHELESS” in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. I do PRAY that in this Month NOVEMBER context, that our good God will grant you an abundant entrance of grace that will TURN AROUND ALL MESS INTO A MESSAGE. ALL TOILING INTO FRUITFULNESS AND MEANINGFUL FULFILMENT in His stead in Christ Jesus. Amen. May our God’s blessed Spirit of promise, give you the needed guidance, as you let Him lead you to your place of providence and to ensure that you experience BEAUTY FOR ASHES, THE OIL OF JOY FOR MOURNING AND THE GARMENT OF PRAISE FOR THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS wherein when all is done and settled, you will be called the trees of righteousness that God might be GLORIFIED and MAGNIFIED in Christ Jesus Christ stead. Amen. Isaiah 61:1-3. 

And as our God turn around the mess to a message of the four hundred men of Captain David that were in DEBT, in DISTRESS and are HOMELESS and DISCOUNTED to become the mighty men of David, so shall your turn around be and more, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 1 Samuel 22:1-5; 2 Samuel 23. 

And as you read and meditate upon the scriptural READING THOUGHTS in context, accordingly, may you experience God’s INSPIRING, REVEALING, and EMPOWERING enabling grace, wisdom and speed in His BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead in the now and always until He returns. Amen. It’s my gracious wish for you that God turns every MESS about you into a MESSAGE for all, lifelong, as per these SCRIPTURAL injunctions: 

“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 make you PERFECT (COMPLETE, MATURE) in every good work to do his will, WORKING in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Hebrews 13:20-21 Emphasis Mine. 

“Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, 25 to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen” Jude 1:24-25. 

“Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, 26 but now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: 27 to God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen” Romans 16:25-25. 

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.” 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24. 

I pray you have an amazing, awesome, and majestic daily TURN AROUND OF EVERY MESS INTO MESSAGE by God’s divine provisions in His BLESSEDNESS, through this month of NOVEMBER. And may as you take every single act of FAITH that God wants you to make by His WORD as Simeon did to catch such many great multitude of fishes to meet the answer to his quest, may your response be NEVERTHELESS AT HIS WORD, I WILL LET DOWN THE NET FOR THE CATCH in Christ Jesus precious name. Amen. 

Be BLESSED in Month NOVEMBER in an onward and upward trajectory, as our God turns every MESS up to a gracious and graceful MESSAGE, in doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL READING THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And it came to pass, that, AS THE PEOPLE PRESSED UPON HIM TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 and saw two ships standing by the lake: but the FISHERMEN were gone out of them and were WASHING THEIR NETS. 3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and PRAYED him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, and have taken nothing: NEVERTHELESS AT THY WORD I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they in closed a GREAT MULTITUDE of fishes: and their net brake. 7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. 9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken: 10 and so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. 11 And when they had brought their ships to land, THEY FORSOOK ALL and FOLLOWED him” Luke 5:1-11. 

“David therefore departed thence and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father’s house heard it, they went down thither to him. 2 AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS IN DISTRESS, AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS IN DEBT, AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS DISCONTENTED, gathered themselves unto him; and he became a CAPTAIN over them: and there were with him about FOUR HUNDRED MEN. 3 And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what God will do for me. 4 And he brought them before the king of Moab: and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the hold. 5 And the prophet Gad said unto David, Abide not in the hold; depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth” 1 Samuel 22:1-5. 

“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath ANOINTED me to PREACH good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to BIND UP the brokenhearted, to PROCLAIM LIBERTY to the captives, and the OPENING OF THE PRISON to them that are bound; 2 to PROCLAIM the acceptable year of the Lord, and the DAY OF VENGEANCE of our God; to COMFORT all that mourn; 3 to APPOINT unto them that MOURN in Zion, to GIVE unto them BEAUTY for ASHES, the OIL OF JOY for mourning, the GARMENT OF PRAISE for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be CALLED trees of righteousness, the PLANTING of the Lord, that he might be GLORIFIED” Isaiah 61:1-3 (Luke 4:16-22). 

“Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through FAITH we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But without FAITH it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6. 

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 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 5:3-5. 

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

“These be THE WORDS which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab. 2 (There are ELEVEN DAYS’ JOURNEY from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea.) 3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, IN THE ELEVENTH MONTH, ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE MONTH, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the Lord had given him in commandment unto them; 4 after he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei: 5 on this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying, 6 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 1:1-8.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS

By Leave a Comment

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS: AND IT’S AT A COST – THE COST OF LOVE!
 
“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his LIFE for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you” John 15:12-14.
 
LOVE is an ESSENCE of life that everyone talks about daily, wants to both have, give and experience, but how many know and understood the magnanimity of the cost of LOVE to both receive from the giver and to offer same or more to another. It must be known and understood, that, every great relationship that has stood the pace of time, is because of the absolute commitment and dedication in self denials for the good of the other, in order to ensure that the bedrock of LOVE upon which they are and were founded, grounded, rooted and characterised are NEVER allowed to be shaken by any factors known and unknown that contradicts the LOVE in essence. [1 Peter 1:19; Acts 24:16; Ephesians 3:17-19; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13].
 
And as a child of God in Christ Jesus stead, I know how much you want to daily experience being a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus as you appropriate the ESSENCE. I am here to tell you that it’s at a cost – LOVE cost. The MORE THAN CONQUERORS essence is born out of the COST of LOVE. And it’s in our going through the journey of knowing and understanding that LOVE is at a COST, that makes the essence meaningful and fulfilling as we appropriate.
 
“WHO shall SEPARATE us from the LOVE of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 NAY, IN ALL THESE THINGS WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that LOVED us. 38 For I am PERSUADED, that NEITHER death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to SEPARATE us from the LOVE of God, which is IN Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:31-39.
 
I want to emphasise emphatically that being able to exercise the essence of being a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead, is at a cost – and it wasn’t just an a mere GIVEN. It’s not cheap and it’s out there at no cost. It’s at the cost of LOVE. It COST God His Son, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and it COST His Son, Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ His LIFE at the CROSS of crucifixion, through the pains and pangs of suffering even unto death.
 
“And HOPE maketh not ASHAMED; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . 8 But God COMMENDETH His LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8.
 
And this matter of His life COST to us by Father God, was and is – LOVE. Meaning therefore, that God’s LOVE – the AGAPE love, is unconditional, principle, non sentimental, transcending, superseding, surpassing and it’s scriptural. And in the context of LOVE, God loves us; and this He expressed and authenticate by giving us His only Beloved Son – the first begotten from the dead – and by whom, it beholds Him to call us BRETHREN; and He expended it all in LOVE at a cost for our sake without a shadow of turning. [Romans 8:28; John 3:16; Revelation 1:5-6].
 
Therefore, it becomes apparent, that it takes a PURE CONSCIENCE of God’s genuine LOVE at a COST, which sometimes and most times, where possible, takes a toe on us, for one to actually and genuinely APPROPRIATE the MORE THAN CONQUERORS essence in Christ Jesus. Hence the characteristics of LOVE is a vitality to ensure a genuine LOVE cost. [1 Timothy 3:18; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13; Romans 12:9-21].
 
And I ask you today – do you want to experience the fulness, wholeness, perfection, completeness and maturity of the MORE THAN CONQUERORS stead in Christ Jesus? How much PREPARED are you to LOVE God in Christ Jesus stead, no matter what betides you for the cause of living, in following Him all the way? How PREPARED are you to say daily to take a stand in the Lord before the enormous challenges of life MATTERS when you are BUFFETED for your FAITH in God in Christ Jesus? Can you be emboldened to say I love the LORD and His cause and you will follow along irrespective of these but not limited elements of opposition to your FAITH and devotion to God in Christ Jesus: condemnation, or tribulation, or distress, persecution, or famine, nakedness, or peril, or sword, or death, or life, or angels, or principalities, or powers, or things present, or things to come, or height, or depth, or any other creature and such like. [Romans 8:31-39].
 
May I say that you need to be fully PERSUADED and CONTRAIN to LOVE God by His LOVE that He has GIVEN us by His Spirit for you to actualised in essence in your being – MORE THAN CONQUERORS dimensions of following God by FAITH in Christ Jesus. [Romans 8:35, 37, 39; 2 Corinthians 5:11-15; Romans 4:17-21).
 
To be MORE THAN CONQUERORS over your ENEMY and COHORTS for example, it takes taking an account to count the COST of LOVE to God’s WORD to do the SCRIPTURAL DEMAND to love your ENEMY and COHORTS, to feed them if in hunger and to quench their thirst with a drink as the scriptures enjoined. And it’s in pleasing God by taking the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH as it’s demand of you, that you can genuine appropriate the essence of being A MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. [1 John 5:1-5; Matthew 5:43-48; Romans 12:20-21; Proverbs 25:21-22; Proverbs 16:7; Hebrews 11:6; Galatians 5:6].
 
Take time today and always to ask yourself on how much to go to LOVE God back in His LOVE definition stand, that’s GIVEN to you by the bestowed Holy Spirit to ensure, as He loves you, just as for His Son to SUFFER in LOVE to genuinely LOVE you too. That’s how to live through LOVE in FAITH toward God and His Christ in all matters of doing life and living godly and through the avenues of any relationship but not limited in – Marriage, Friendship, Colleagues, Business, Career, Leadership, Ministry, Community and such like.
 
It’s time to SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK, that LOVE is at a COST to ensure one to be able to appropriate to the FULNESS, a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead.
May God found you faithful and in faith in His BLESSEDNESS, in experiencing the cost of LOVE, to be MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Him, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
 
“BEHOLD, what MANNER of LOVE the Father hath BESTOWED upon us, that we should be CALLED the SONS of God: therefore the world KNOWETH us not, because it KNEW him not” 1 John 3:1.
 
“And HOPE maketh not ASHAMED; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . 8 But God COMMENDETH his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8.
 
“Who in the days of his FLESH (HUMANITY), when he had OFFERED up prayers and supplications with STRONG CRYING and TEARS unto him that was able to SAVE him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 though he were a Son, yet LEARNED he OBEDIENCE by the things which he SUFFERED; 9 and being made PERFECT (COMPLETE, WHOLE, MATURED, FULNESS), he became the AUTHOR of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY him” Hebrews 5:7-9 (Emphasis Mine).
 
“For this is THANKWORTHY, if a man for CONSCIENCE toward God ENDURE grief, SUFFERING wrongfully. 20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be BUFFETED for your faults, ye shall take it PATIENTLY? but if, when ye do well, and SUFFER for it, ye take it PATIENTLY, this is ACCEPTABLE with God. 21 For even hereunto were ye CALLED: because Christ also SUFFERED for us, leaving us an EXAMPLE, that ye should follow his steps: 22 who did NO sin, neither was GUILE FOUND in his mouth: 23 who, when he was REVILED, REVILED not again; when he SUFFERED, he THREATENED not; but COMMITTED himself to him that judgeth righteously: 24 who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls” 1 Peter 2:19-25.
 
“For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.
 
“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his LIFE for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you. 15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” John 15:12-16.
 
“Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having LOVED his own which were in the world, he LOVED them unto the END. 2 And supper being ended, the DEVIL having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to BETRAY him . . . 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By THIS (LOVE) shall ALL men know that ye are MY DISCIPLES, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1-2, 34-35 (Emphasis Mine).
 
“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour, and HATE thine ENEMY. 44 But I say unto you, LOVE your ENEMIES, BLESS them that CURSE you, do GOOD to them that HATE you, and PRAY for them which DESPITEFULLY use you, and PERSECUTE you; 45 that ye may be the CHILDREN of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye LOVE them which LOVE you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye SALUTE your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore PERFECT (WHOLE, MATURED COMPLETE FULNESS), even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT” Matthew 5:43-48 (Emphasis Mine).
 
“What shall we then say to these things? If God be FOR us, who can be AGAINST us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but DELIVERED him up for us all, how shall he not with him also FREELY give us all things? 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that JUSTIFIETH. 34 Who is he that CONDEMNETH? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh INTERCESSION for us. 35 WHO shall SEPARATE us from the LOVE of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that LOVED us. 38 For I am PERSUADED, that NEITHER death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to SEPARATE us from the LOVE of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:31-39.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS: AND IT’S AT A COST – THE COST OF LOVE!

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his LIFE for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you” John 15:12-14.

LOVE is an ESSENCE of life that everyone talks about daily, wants to both have, give and experience, but how many know and understood the magnanimity of the cost of LOVE to both receive from the giver and to offer same or more to another. It must be known and understood, that, every great relationship that has stood the pace of time, is because of the absolute commitment and dedication in self-denials for the good of the other, in order to ensure that the bedrock of LOVE upon which they are and were founded, grounded, rooted  and characterised are NEVER allowed to be shaken by any factors known and unknown that contradicts the LOVE in essence. [1 Peter 1:19; Acts 24:16; Ephesians 3:17-19; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13].

And as a child of God in Christ Jesus stead, I know how much you want to daily experience being a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus as you appropriate the ESSENCE. I am here to tell you that it’s at a cost – LOVE cost. The MORE THAN CONQUERORS essence is born out of the COST of LOVE. And it’s in our going through the journey of knowing and understanding that LOVE is at a COST, that makes the essence meaningful and fulfilling as we appropriate.

I want to emphasize emphatically that being able to exercise the essence of being a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead, is at a cost – and it wasn’t just an a mere GIVEN. It’s not cheap and it’s out there at no cost. It’s at the cost of LOVE. It COST God His Son, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and it COST His Son, Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ His LIFE at the CROSS of crucifixion, through the pains and pangs of suffering even unto death.

And this matter of His life COST to us by Father God, was and is – LOVE. Meaning therefore, that God’s LOVE – the AGAPE love, is unconditional, principle, non-sentimental, transcending, superseding, surpassing and it’s scriptural. And in the context of LOVE, God loves us; and this He expressed and authenticate by giving us His only Beloved Son – the first begotten from the dead – and by whom, it beholds Him to call us BRETHREN; and He expended it all in LOVE at a cost for our sake without a shadow of turning. [Romans 8:28; John 3:16; Revelation 1:5-6].

Therefore, it becomes apparent, that it takes a PURE CONSCIENCE of God’s genuine LOVE at a COST, which sometimes and most times, where possible, takes a toe on us, for one to actually and genuinely APPROPRIATE the MORE THAN CONQUERORS essence in Christ Jesus. Hence the characteristics of LOVE is a vitality to ensure a genuine LOVE cost. [1 Timothy 3:18; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13; Romans 12:9-21].

And I ask you today – do you want to experience the fulness, wholeness, perfection, completeness and maturity of the MORE THAN CONQUERORS stead in Christ Jesus? How much PREPARED are you to LOVE God in Christ Jesus stead, no matter what betides you for the cause of living, in following Him all the way? How PREPARED are you to say daily to take a stand in the Lord before the enormous challenges of life MATTERS when you are BUFFETED for your FAITH in God in Christ Jesus? Can you be emboldened to say I love the LORD and His cause and you will follow along irrespective of these but not limited elements of opposition to your FAITH and devotion to God in Christ Jesus: condemnation, or tribulation, or distress, persecution, or famine, nakedness, or peril, or sword, or death, or life, or angels, or principalities, or powers, or things present, or things to come, or height, or depth, or any other creature and such like. [Romans 8:31-39].

May I say that you need to be fully PERSUADED and COMPELLED to LOVE God by His LOVE that He has GIVEN us by His Spirit for you to actualised in essence in your being – MORE THAN CONQUERORS dimensions of following God by FAITH in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:35, 37, 39; 2 Corinthians 5:11-15; Romans 4:17-21)

To be MORE THAN CONQUERORS over your ENEMY and COHORTS for example, it takes taking an account to count the COST of LOVE to God’s WORD to do the SCRIPTURAL DEMAND to love your ENEMY and COHORTS, to feed them if in hunger and to quench their thirst with a drink as the scriptures enjoined. And it’s in pleasing God by taking the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH as it’s demand of you, that you can genuine appropriate the essence of being A MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. (1 John 5:1-5; Matthew 5:43-48; Romans 12:20-21; Proverbs 25:21-22; Proverbs 16:7; Hebrews 11:6; Galatians 5:6)

Take time today and always to ask yourself on how much to go to LOVE God back in His LOVE definition stand, that’s GIVEN to you by the bestowed Holy Spirit to ensure, as He loves you, just as for His Son to SUFFER in LOVE to genuinely LOVE you too. That’s how to live through LOVE in FAITH toward God and His Christ in all matters of doing life and living godly and through the avenues of any relationship but not limited in – Marriage, Friendship, Colleagues, Business, Career, Leadership, Ministry, Community and such like.

It’s time to SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK, that LOVE is at a COST to ensure one to be able to appropriate to the FULNESS, a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead.

May God found you faithful and in faith in His BLESSEDNESS, in experiencing the cost of LOVE, to be MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Him, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“BEHOLD, what MANNER of LOVE the Father hath BESTOWED upon us, that we should be CALLED the SONS of God: therefore the world KNOWETH us not, because it KNEW him not” 1 John 3:1.

“And HOPE maketh not ASHAMED; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . .  8 But God COMMENDETH his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8.

“Who in the days of his FLESH (HUMANITY), when he had OFFERED up prayers and supplications with STRONG CRYING and TEARS unto him that was able to SAVE him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 though he were a Son, yet LEARNED he OBEDIENCE by the things which he SUFFERED; 9 and being made PERFECT (COMPLETE, WHOLE, MATURED, FULNESS), he became the AUTHOR of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY him” Hebrews 5:7-9 (Emphasis Mine).

“For this is THANK-WORTHY, if a man for CONSCIENCE toward God ENDURE grief, SUFFERING wrongfully. 20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be BUFFETED for your faults, ye shall take it PATIENTLY? but if, when ye do well, and SUFFER for it, ye take it PATIENTLY, this is ACCEPTABLE with God. 21 For even hereunto were ye CALLED: because Christ also SUFFERED for us, leaving us an EXAMPLE, that ye should follow his steps: 22 who did NO sin, neither was GUILE FOUND in his mouth: 23 who, when he was REVILED, REVILED not again; when he SUFFERED, he THREATENED not; but COMMITTED himself to him that judgeth righteously: 24 who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls” 1 Peter 2:19-25.

“For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his LIFE for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you. 15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” John 15:12-16.

“Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having LOVED his own which were in the world, he LOVED them unto the END. 2 And supper being ended, the DEVIL having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to BETRAY him . . . 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By THIS (LOVE) shall ALL men know that ye are MY DISCIPLES, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1-2, 34-35 (Emphasis Mine).

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour, and HATE thine ENEMY. 44 But I say unto you, LOVE your ENEMIES, BLESS them that CURSE you, do GOOD to them that HATE you, and PRAY for them which DESPITEFULLY use you, and PERSECUTE you; 45 that ye may be the CHILDREN of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye LOVE them which LOVE you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye SALUTE your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore PERFECT (WHOLE, MATURED COMPLETE FULNESS), even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT” Matthew 5:43-48 (Emphasis Mine).

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be FOR us, who can be AGAINST us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but DELIVERED him up for us all, how shall he not with him also FREELY give us all things? 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that JUSTIFIETH. 34 Who is he that CONDEMNETH? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh INTERCESSION for us. 35 WHO shall SEPARATE us from the LOVE of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that LOVED us. 38 For I am PERSUADED, that NEITHER death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to SEPARATE us from the LOVE of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:31-39.

“And it came to pass, that, AS THE PEOPLE PRESSED UPON HIM TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 and saw two ships standing by the lake: but the FISHERMEN were gone out of them, and were WASHING THEIR NETS. 3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and PRAYED him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, and have taken nothing: NEVERTHELESS AT THY WORD I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a GREAT MULTITUDE of fishes: and their net brake. 7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. 9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken: 10 and so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. 11 And when they had brought their ships to land, THEY FORSOOK ALL, and FOLLOWED him” Luke 5:1-11.

“David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father’s house heard it, they went down thither to him. 2 AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS IN DISTRESS, AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS IN DEBT, AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS DISCONTENTED, gathered themselves unto him; and he became a CAPTAIN over them: and there were with him about FOUR HUNDRED MEN. 3 And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what God will do for me. 4 And he brought them before the king of Moab: and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the hold. 5 And the prophet Gad said unto David, Abide not in the hold; depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth” 1 Samuel 22:1-5.

“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath ANOINTED me to PREACH good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to BIND UP the brokenhearted, to PROCLAIM LIBERTY to the captives, and the OPENING OF THE PRISON to them that are bound; 2 to PROCLAIM the acceptable year of the Lord, and the DAY OF VENGEANCE of our God; to COMFORT all that mourn; 3 to APPOINT unto them that MOURN in Zion, to GIVE unto them BEAUTY for ASHES, the OIL OF JOY for mourning, the GARMENT OF PRAISE for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be CALLED trees of righteousness, the PLANTING of the Lord, that he might be GLORIFIED” Isaiah 61:1-3 (Luke 4:16-22).

“Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through FAITH we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But without FAITH it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 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 5:3-5.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS: IS AT A COST

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS: IS AT A COST – THE COST OF LOVE!

LOVE is an ESSENCE of life that everyone talks about daily, wants to both give and experience, but how many know and understood the magnanimity of the cost of LOVE to both receive from the giver and to offer same or more to another. It must be known and understood, that, every great relationship that has stood the pace of time, is because of the absolute commitment and dedication in self-denial for the good of the other, in order to ensure that the bedrock of LOVE upon which they are and were founded, grounded, rooted and characterized are NEVER allowed to be shaken by any factors known and unknown that contradicts the LOVE in essence. (Ephesians 3:17-19; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13). And as a child of God in Christ Jesus stead, I know how much you want to daily experience being a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus as you appropriate the ESSENCE. I am here to tell you that it’s at a cost – LOVE cost. The MORE THAN CONQUERORS essence is born out of the COST of LOVE. And it’s in our going through the journey of knowing and understanding that LOVE is at a COST, that makes the essence meaningful and fulfilling as we appropriate.

How much PREPARED are you to LOVE God in Christ Jesus stead, no matter what betides you for the cause of living, in following Him all the way?

(Romans 8:31-39).

May I say that you need to be fully PERSUADED and CONTRAIN to LOVE God by His LOVE that He has GIVEN us by His Spirit for you to actualized in essence in your being – MORE THAN CONQUERORS dimensions of following God by FAITH in Christ Jesus.

“Who in the days of his FLESH (HUMANITY), when he had OFFERED up prayers and supplications with STRONG CRYING and TEARS unto him that was able to SAVE him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 though he were a Son, yet LEARNED he OBEDIENCE by the things which he SUFFERED; 9 and being made PERFECT (COMPLETE, WHOLE, MATURED, FULNESS), he became the AUTHOR of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY him” Hebrews 5:7-9 (Emphasis Mine).

“For this is THANKWORTHY, if a man for CONSCIENCE toward God ENDURE grief, SUFFERING wrongfully. 20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be BUFFETED for your faults, ye shall take it PATIENTLY? but if, when ye do well, and SUFFER for it, ye take it PATIENTLY, this is ACCEPTABLE with God. 21 For even hereunto were ye CALLED: because Christ also SUFFERED for us, leaving us an EXAMPLE, that ye should follow his steps: 22 who did NO sin, neither was GUILE FOUND in his mouth: 23 who, when he was REVILED, REVILED not again; when he SUFFERED, he THREATENED not; but COMMITTED himself to him that judgeth righteously: 24 who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls” 1 Peter 2:19-25.

“For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his LIFE for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you. 15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” John 15:12-16.

“Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having LOVED his own which were in the world, he LOVED them unto the END. 2 And supper being ended, the DEVIL having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to BETRAY him . . . 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By THIS (LOVE) shall ALL men know that ye are MY DISCIPLES, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1-2, 34-35 (Emphasis Mine).

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour, and HATE thine ENEMY. 44 But I say unto you, LOVE your ENEMIES, BLESS them that CURSE you, do GOOD to them that HATE you, and PRAY for them which DESPITEFULLY use you, and PERSECUTE you; 45 that ye may be the CHILDREN of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye LOVE them which LOVE you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye SALUTE your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore PERFECT (WHOLE, MATURED COMPLETE FULNESS), even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT” Matthew 5:43-48 (Emphasis Mine).

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be FOR us, who can be AGAINST us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but DELIVERED him up for us all, how shall he not with him also FREELY give us all things? 33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that JUSTIFIETH. 34 Who is he that CONDEMNETH? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh INTERCESSION for us. 35 WHO shall SEPARATE us from the LOVE of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that LOVED us. 38 For I am PERSUADED, that NEITHER death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to SEPARATE us from the LOVE of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:31-39.

SCRIPTURAL READING THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And it came to pass, that, AS THE PEOPLE PRESSED UPON HIM TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 and saw two ships standing by the lake: but the FISHERMEN were gone out of them, and were WASHING THEIR NETS. 3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and PRAYED him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, and have taken nothing: NEVERTHELESS AT THY WORD I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a GREAT MULTITUDE of fishes: and their net brake. 7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. 9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken: 10 and so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. 11 And when they had brought their ships to land, THEY FORSOOK ALL, and FOLLOWED him” Luke 5:1-11.

“David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father’s house heard it, they went down thither to him. 2 AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS IN DISTRESS, AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS IN DEBT, AND EVERY ONE THAT WAS DISCONTENTED, gathered themselves unto him; and he became a CAPTAIN over them: and there were with him about FOUR HUNDRED MEN. 3 And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab: and he said unto the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth, and be with you, till I know what God will do for me. 4 And he brought them before the king of Moab: and they dwelt with him all the while that David was in the hold. 5 And the prophet Gad said unto David, Abide not in the hold; depart, and get thee into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth” 1 Samuel 22:1-5.

“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath ANOINTED me to PREACH good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to BIND UP the brokenhearted, to PROCLAIM LIBERTY to the captives, and the OPENING OF THE PRISON to them that are bound; 2 to PROCLAIM the acceptable year of the Lord, and the DAY OF VENGEANCE of our God; to COMFORT all that mourn; 3 to APPOINT unto them that MOURN in Zion, to GIVE unto them BEAUTY for ASHES, the OIL OF JOY for mourning, the GARMENT OF PRAISE for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be CALLED trees of righteousness, the PLANTING of the Lord, that he might be GLORIFIED” Isaiah 61:1-3 (Luke 4:16-22).

“Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through FAITH we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But without FAITH it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 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 5:3-5.

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

“These be THE WORDS which Moses spake unto all Israel on this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab. 2 (There are ELEVEN DAYS’ JOURNEY from Horeb by the way of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea.) 3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, IN THE ELEVENTH MONTH, ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE MONTH, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the Lord had given him in commandment unto them; 4 after he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei: 5 on this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying, 6 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 1:1-8.
