SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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 . . . 5 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” Romans 5:1-5.

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy LOVE and FAITH, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 4-6.

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, AND LABOUR OF LOVE, AND PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God. 5 FOR OUR GOSPEL CAME NOT UNTO YOU IN WORD ONLY, BUT ALSO IN POWER, AND IN THE HOLY GHOST, AND IN MUCH ASSURANCE; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-5.

“Therefore it is of FAITH, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17 (as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. 18 WHO AGAINST HOPE BELIEVED IN HOPE, THAT HE MIGHT BECOME THE FATHER OF MANY NATIONS; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 AND BEING NOT WEAK IN FAITH, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was STRONG IN FAITH, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform . . .” Romans 4:16-25.

YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE

YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE: BUT THAT’S ONLY POSSIBLE WHILE YOU ARE WITHIN AND STILL IN THE FAITH!

“Thou BELIEVEST that there is one God; thou doest well: the DEVILS also BELIEVE, and TREMBLE” James 2:9.

We ARE to being BLESSED when we BELIEVE in THE FAITH; meaning it’s possible not to being Blessed when you walk out of the threshold of God’s word in THE FAITH, wherein the blessedness of God is justified to give access in the context. Indeed in Christ Jesus, you can become what you believe, but that’s only possible while you ARE still IN THE FAITH. The context IN THE FAITH, is not about having faith but about having a grandstand in the redemption of God in Christ Jesus stead, which is irrespective and without sentiment, prejudice and dissimulation in redemption.

“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.

The devil, the satan, once upon a time was within the threshold of God’s word and he prospered along with the one third [1/3] angels [stars] that are classed cohorts demon’s today when they break away from the blessedness of God’s word IN THE FAITH by their own selfishness and self-centred, pride and arrogance which they put forth to stand against God’s authority and His Word. Hence, though satan and the devils may BELIEVE, that doesn’t offer him and cohorts demon’s the access and justification that redemption offers, hence he TREMBLES though he BELIEVES. However, he also BELIEVES in the authoritative truth of God’s word and the eternal judgement and condemnation that makes up his eternal damnation as in the holy writ. [Ezekiel 28:11-28; Isaiah 14:12-21; Revelation 12:3-4].

And in the same like spirit, the essence to BELIEVE that makes one to BECOME in God’s BLESSEDNESS is not in activation for those who have chosen to intentionally and willingly thrash their grandstands IN THE FAITH and are out there to make a sheep wrecking of the WORD of God and the redemption grace of God and the blood of Jesus Christ and such like, because of the same-like arrogance, pride and behavioural mannerism as exhibited by satan the devils for which they were thrown out of the throne [presence] of God in the heavens.

“For if we sin WILFULLY after that we have received the KNOWLEDGE of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain FEARFUL [TREMBLING] looking for of judgment and FIERY indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. 28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: 29 of how much SORER punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath TRODDEN under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the BLOOD of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an UNHOLY thing, and hath done DESPITE unto the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him that hath said, VENGEANCE belongeth unto me, I will RECOMPENSE, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall JUDGE his people. 31 It is a FEARFUL thing to FALL into the HANDS of the living God” Hebrews 10:26-3.

There are many today, who are out there that are satan and devils cohorts PERVERT in the flesh and are in the devilish business of PERVERTING the Gospel at their own detriments. These sets of people are lovers of themselves, who preach the gospel without believing in it because it’s all a game for them because it’s all about for their own bellies, to disrupt the truth, create contentions, schisms, chaos, falsehoods, adulteration and such like, in order to ensure that they populate hell against the populating of the heavens.

And if these sets of satan and devils cohorts don’t repent and dissociates themselves in order to believe again for their deliverance and restoration, they will end up overstepping their opportunity of the redemption threshold and the impossible reversal of their cause, knowingly and unknowingly – meaning that the opportune time to BELIEVE to can make them to BECOME in God’s BLESSEDNESS will be out of reach for them in all respects – because God can’t be mocked and gives no permission to any to break His word in arrogance and pride and wickedness. [Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; Philippians 1:15-18; Galatians 6:1-8].

“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. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is NOT CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

Therefore, I PLEAD with you and all who likes to FOLLOW and IMITATE after people that you considered that they ARE of God, it’s time to take a purse, check through the tenet [statement] of faith that the one you looked up to actually holds steadfastly to, so that you may not be caught up with the bait that they are holding unto that’s not of God. So was it in the city of Samaria’ as happens in Acts 8:9-25 [1-25], wherein a great one as called who is named and called Simon, who by sorcery was considered a great man of God and followed and looked up to by the entire city, while he was a satan and devils cohorts in the City. Such person that robs others of the truth because he doesn’t have it not and can’t believe it; and couldn’t offer repentance toward God and faith in the Christ Jesus in essence for their faith stead to eternal redemption, because of the sorcery craft which only offers to their detriment the eternal damnation. Thanks to God he finds an opportunity to repentance, which you can now before you are out of the threshold of obtaining it. [Acts 20:20-21; Acts 17:30-31; Mark 3:28-30; Hebrews 9:11-12, John 3:16-18].

“Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and BLASPHEMIES wherewith soever they shall BLASPHEME: 29 but he that shall BLASPHEME AGAINST the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of ETERNAL DAMNATION: 30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit” Mark 3:28-30.

“And the TIMES of this IGNORANCE God WINKED [OVERLOOKED] at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have TAUGHT you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

“But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; 12 neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having OBTAINED ETERNAL REDEMPTION for us . . . 15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the REDEMPTION of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of ETERNAL inheritance. 16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator” Hebrews 9:11-16.

Considering the writs that I have been given grace to make available on this subjects of BELIEVE in order to become in God’s BLESSEDNESS, you can see with me that – you can only BECOME what you BELIEVE in God’s BLESSEDNESS, when and whilst you are still in the faith of our God in Christ Jesus stead. That’s the only stand to being justified and to have access in the grace to take a redemption stand that gives leverage to our BLESSEDNESS in redemption.

Suffix to say that just as Satan the devils though BELIEVES today but yet TREMBLES in fear because his judgement is done, so are many whose intents are still not toward REPENTANCE but are of pride, arrogance to do God and be God toward others as satan did and now set in eternal damnation. And God in graciousnesss and gracefulness, abhors, resist and detest signs and intents of pride, arrogance and such like, by throwing satan the devils away out of His BLESSEDNESS, will keep to His divinity to do same to any who walks away from their threshold to believe alright. [Romans 5:1-2; 1 Peter 5:5-10; James 4:6-10].

Therefore I say to you my friend there, that while it’s yet called today and now, check up on WHAT YOU BELIEVE and WHOM YOU BELIEVE, in order to ensure and be assured that your BELIEVING gives you the justification and access to take and have a stand in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead in the faith. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . Jesus said unto him, IF THOU CANST BELIEVE, all things are possible to him that BELIEVETH. 24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I BELIEVE; help thou mine unbelief . . .” Mark 9:23-24.

“And BLESSED is she that BELIEVED: for there shall be a PERFORMANCE of those things which were told her from the Lord” Luke 1:45.

“But without FAITH it is impossible to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

“Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 10 BELIEVEST thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11 BELIEVE me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else BELIEVE me for the very works’ sake. 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that BELIEVETH on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son” John 14:9-13.

“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. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is NOT CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“And the scripture was FULFILLED which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS: and he was called the FRIEND of God” James 2:23.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS. 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED. 9 So then they which BE OF FAITH ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that the BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the PROMISE of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye ARE all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye ARE all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then ARE ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the PROMISE” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:22-24.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we PREACH; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is made unto salvation” Romans 10:8-10.

“For what saith the scripture? Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was COUNTED unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God imputeth RIGHTEOUSNESS without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are FORGIVEN, and whose sins are COVERED. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9 Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS” Romans 4:3, 6-9.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS. 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED. 9 So then they which BE OF FAITH ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that the BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the PROMISE of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye ARE all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye ARE all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then ARE ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the PROMISE” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye receive them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:22-24.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we PREACH; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is made unto salvation” Romans 10:8-10.

“For what saith the scripture? Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was COUNTED unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God imputeth RIGHTEOUSNESS without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are FORGIVEN, and whose sins are COVERED. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9 Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS” Romans 4:3, 6-9.

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION: BY ENGAGING ONLY ON THE “GOOD FIGHT” OF FAITH!

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

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus stead is WORTH ALL THE FIGHT if you must ensure your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. When I talk of the GOOD FAITH OF FAITH, I am not talking of the demonic and satanic consciousness that most people tend to be acquainted with. Am here talking of you taking your STAND to ensure who you ARE in Christ Jesus by the virtue of being born of God – knowing that Christ Jesus is our REDEEMER and REDEMPTION indeed, and have given us access, rights and privileges to reign and rule in DOMINION – the sphere wherein the enemy and cohorts have no authority over you any more. Hence Proverbs 24:10 says:

“If thou FAINT in the DAY of ADVERSITY, thy STRENGTH is SMALL” Proverbs 24:10.

Sometimes in the course of doing life and living godly – ADVERSITIES – do happen. How we go about in dealing with any of such adversities defines lots in our moving forward – onward and upward trajectory or moving backward or at stand still. When in course of life time you –  lose your job, your business close down, you have uncertainty in your relationship and marriage, your children or spouse quit from you, or sickness and diseases afflicts you and your financial position gets worst and uncertain; your career or educational pursuits comes to a hurt and many more setback comes to play in your life – WHAT DO YOU DO?

WHAT YOU DO MATTERS – THEN IS THE “FIGHT OF FAITH” – TO REIGN IN DOMINION IN REDEMPTION.

I WANT YOU TO KNOW – THAT IT’S ALL ABOUT YOUR ‘FAITH” – THAT THE ENEMY AND COHORTS ARE AFTER AND NOT THE EVENTS AND HAPPENING IN YOUR LIFE.

The enemy and cohorts knows, if they can SUCCEED in getting you OFF your ‘FAITH’ – that’s your trust and dependence on God’s grace and absolute providence in Christ Jesus – and they will not only ruin you, if you give them permission by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, they will also ruin all who God had orchestrated you to be His vessel of use, to extend His BLESSEDNESS to them; for the ENEMY and COHORTS knows, that when you SUCCEED in achieving God’s intended PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in doing life and living godly by FAITH, others will be beneficiaries too.

The enemy tried to destroy everything about our BELOVED JOB, but couldn’t crush his FAITH, and JOB by his FIGHT of FAITH for his FAITH, was able to come back far better off while declaring in the cause and course of his challenges – “I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVES, AND HE IS ABLE TO SAVE ME EVEN IN THIS FIGHT OF FAITH” (paraphrased).

“For I KNOW that my REDEEMER liveth, and that he shall STAND at the latter day upon the earth” Job 19:25.

The ENEMY and COHORTS tried it on Christ too, they were eventually and completely crushed and lost the battle of the FAITH as it’s written:

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE of this WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30.

“Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES of this WORLD, that come to NOUGHT: 7 but we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which none of the PRINCES of this WORLD knew: for had they known it, they would not have CRUCIFIED the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8.

And I know for sure and assured certainty, the enemy and cohorts can’t succeed with you except you let him be – give them the needed permission to hurt you and your FAITH especially – which simply put, by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION.

Therefore, today, rise up to FIGHT for the GOOD FIGHT of your FAITH in Christ by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges, for your FAITH worth FIGHTING for because your destiny and that of others depends on it; don’t just give up or backslide simply for a momentary lack – because I know you can and will come back better and best of times in life and godliness than you were before if you deal life through FAITH and PATIENCE – Hebrews 6:11-12; for you can win wholly, faithfully, triumphantly, victoriously, graciously and gracefully when your stand insured and assured of your FAITH in God’s unwavering ability and agility in you and through you by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. That’s all you need now, today and always.

NEVER GIVE THE ENEMY AND COHORTS THE OXYGEN THEY CRAVE – IN ORDER NOT TO HURT YOU IN YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD

Therefore, don’t sit back or stay aloof, because the enemy and cohorts are envious of your worth and greatness, hence their intent. So, FIGHT! FIGHT!! and FIGHT!!! By ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus.

Don’t give up, or give in, I challenged you today. YOUR FAITH IS WORTH ALL THE FAITH IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN. I pray for you that God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS may abound with you, in life and grace in every way in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Have a blessed and awesome day.

Glorious, Gracious and Graceful POSITION

By Leave a Comment

Glorious, Gracious and Graceful POSITION – Is Your PLACE Of Grace: A Life BEYOND Limits!

“A GLORIOUS high throne from the BEGINNING is the PLACE of our SANCTUARY” Jeremiah 17:12.

The sky is such big that two birds can hardly collide or worried of space. Hence there’s no room for jealousy or limitation. You are LIMITED when you STAY FOCUS in the CROWDED PLACE, that is, on the ground where there’s no VISION, DILIGENCE and PURPOSE. Look up and behold your great place of salvation where all things are possible.

“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/AMP.

“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/AMP.

When you set your being on the glorious, gracious and graceful place wherein Christ had made you free, there would be no room for unwelcome entanglement, limitation, envy, hypocrisy and jealousy and such like.

You are REDEEMED in GRACE – positioned and conditioned to SUCCEED In LIFE and GODLY Living by God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Therefore, rise up, dress up on your NEW you in God by Christ Jesus – doing life and living godly, in the fulness of what you are born of God to become meaningfully in purpose and fulfilment, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ . . . 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he RAISED him from the dead, and SET him at his own RIGHT HAND in the HEAVENLY PLACES” Ephesians 1:3, 20.

DO YOU DESIRE TO PLEASE GOD?

By Leave a Comment

DO YOU DESIRE TO PLEASE GOD: WALK BY FAITH – LIVE AND WALK IN THE SPIRIT BY THE WORD!

“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh . . . 24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the AFFECTIONS and LUSTS. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 24-25.

I know to what extent most of us are driven in the Christian Faith to DO lots and loads in the name of PLEASING (and wanting to PLEASE) God. And yet NEVER enough, because it’s not by POWER and not by MIGHT but by my Spirit says the LORD as it’s written:

“Then he answered and SPAKE unto me, saying, This is the WORD of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by MIGHT, nor by POWER, but by MY SPIRIT, saith the Lord of hosts” Zechariah 4:6.

And PLEASING God by His Spirit comes through by the WORD. Hence, it’s not enough when some of us let go our precious TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT EXERTION (Physical & Mental) to ensure that the CAUSE and CAUSES of God and humanity are doing great, and are yet found questionable. This is simply because our precious TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT EXERTION (Physical & Mental) may not have been invested and done SCRIPTURALLY by the WORD in CONTEXT to justify one as to the PLEASING of God.

“But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

Honestly, why all our efforts may seems good in our own eyes, but are they – the GOOD, ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT WILL of God? Romans 12:1-2. And we mustn’t forget that His WILL is His WORD and in His WORD only. Then we can ask ourselves if our ACTS of DOING what we DO really PLEASE God?

What then is the ACTS to PLEASE God if someone may ask.  HEREIN ARE TWO PRINCIPLES TO KNOW:

** THE ACT TO PLEASE GOD – PRINCIPLE 1:

Spend your most precious time on what God IS to you rather than what you think or conceived or intend that the enemy and cohorts ARE or DOING or capable of doing. More of God and Less and nothing of the ENEMY and COHORTS. Philemon 1:6.

The foremost and great ACT about PLEASING God is that you spent little or no energy at all on your enemy and or enemies if you think you have one; for God will causes them to be at PEACE with you when your time is spent on God primarily as in His WORD on any context. In my own terms, He makes them to WORK for your good instead of been at WAR with you – Proverbs 16:7. DON’T YOU LIKE THAT? Because I Do LOVE God to take care of the ENEMY and COHORTS while I burn my time instead, PLEASING Him. That’s effortless and keeps one at ease in LIFE and GODLY LIVING even in the MIDST of challenges and obstacles in our circumstances.

Having less and nothing of the ENEMY and COHORTS attention and MORE of God is not the gracious and graceful thing to do when having or in the midst of a mental, physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual TORTURE of the known and unknown enemy (enemies) and cohorts. More so, it’s not about having an ENDLESS meetings of prayer and fasting cum night vigils, instead of spending such gracious moments in PLEASING God by the SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT on that circumstantial while He takes care of that ENEMY and COHORTS department for you as enjoined in the Scripture of Proverbs 16:7 and Hebrews 11:6.

This is what I enjoy doing – PLEASING GOD by the SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT on any subject matters that confronts me; and that’s what I wants you to know and enjoy likewise in Christ Jesus. Hence no more enemy (enemies) and cohorts l WORRIES, ANXIOUSNESS and CONSCIOUSNESS to keep me in fear phobias when I am at PEACE with God. That is the PATH OF LIFE I follow, to have COMMUNION, which is the FELLOWSHIP that enhances RELATIONSHIP with God. It SAVES me from ERRORS and SELF AFFLICTION and IGNORANCE in dealing with matters of life in my GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus stead – Psalms 16:11; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28. Matthew 22:29; Acts 17:30-31.

** THE ACT TO PLEASE GOD – PRINCIPLE 2:

“Spend your synergy to LIVE and WALK in the Spirit by your spirit and not in the FLESH – SENSES”. Galatians 5:25.

To LIVE and WALK in the Spirit is another ACT you MUST know and start DOING while you stop right now living and walking in the flesh – by your SENSES, if you MUST PLEASE God in order to enjoy the scriptural rights and privileges of Proverbs 16:7 and Hebrews 11:6, in conjunction with the enjoined Scriptures of Romans 8:1-4, 8.

Romans 8:1-4, 8 states that those who are – that is, LIVE and WALK in the FLESH CANNOT PLEASE God. What then does it mean to LIVE and WALK in the FLESH? It means to live and walk in your FIVE SENSES directives in opposition to doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY with God in SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT. And herein, are what the FLESH (SENSES) segments consists of:

** Hearing (Hear)

** Seeing (See)

** Smelling (Smell)

** Tasting (Taste)

** Feeling/Touching (Feel/Touch)

People who live and walks by the indulgence and guidance of their FIVE SENSES satisfies the lusts and affections of the flesh. And such CANNOT PLEASE God no matter what their intents are. For by the DEEDS of the FLESH shall no man LIVE,  PREVAIL and be JUSTIFIED before God as says the Scripture – Romans 3:20; Romans 8:13, 28-30.

They are always CONSEQUENCES and EFFECTS of living and walking in the FLESH – five senses. Therefore, DON’T BE A SENSE-RULED or BODY-RULED BELIEVER – if you must PLEASE God. Let your SENSES be sensitized by God’s WORD as Hebrews 5:14 enjoined.

And if you feel Otherwise you can ASK:

*** EVE of Genesis about the effect of the sight (to behold of the eyes) of the fruit in the garden of Eden;

*** ESAU about the smell and taste of porridge that cause his lost to his birthright because of his brother’s – JACOB – porridge;

*** King SAUL of losing his throne towards the harkening his ear in hearing and listening to the voice of the people in making sacrifice ahead of Prophet SAMUEL arrival and instructions;

*** Prophet SAMUEL about tying to anoint ELIAB as a King instead of DAVID by sight in JESSE’S house and God’s rebuke in his trying to do so;

*** King DAVID about the death of a non LEVITE’S who touch the ARK to help carry it against divine process;

*** Yourself of other such like SENSE ACTS in the Holy Writ not mentioned.

HOW THEN DO WE PLEASE GOD IN ESSENCE:

The Scripture of Hebrews 11:6 says that WITHOUT an ACT of FAITH we CANNOT PLEASE GOD. Really? YES! Faith is ACTING accordingly on what you BELIEVE on GOD’S WORD in context. It thus means FAITH is of God’s WORD. Meaning No WORD – No FAITH, for FAITH comes by the WORD – Romans 10:17, Hebrews 11:1-3.

The WORD of God is spiritual, victorious and triumphant in everyway in every cause. Meaning FAITH is spiritual, victorious and triumphant – 1 John 5:3-5, 2 Corinthians 2:14. Then to exercise FAITH life in order to PLEASE GOD, one needs to LIVE and WALK in the Spirit. Only by the Holy Spirit CAN one ONLY live FAR ABOVE the lusts and affections of the flesh – SENSES. Galatians 5:24-25.

Living by the SPIRIT is living by the WORD of God. When you develop a living in the Spirit by your spirit consciousness, then can you LIVE and WALK in the SPIRIT by your spirit consciousness.

Do you know and understands what it means to live in the Spirit by your spirit-consciousness to enhance your Spirit Walk by your spirit-consciousness? If you don’t, the FLESH – SENSE living will keep you at WAR in your being as the Scripture enjoins in Galatians 5:16, 24 and James 4:1-3.

Therefore, if you must PLEASE God – then LIVE and WALK in the Spirit by the WORD OF GOD through FAITH. For we WALK by FAITH SENSE and not by SIGHT – FLESH SENSE – 2 Corinthians 5:7. And anything done outside FAITH ACTS is Sin, so enjoined the scripture of Romans 14:23. Sin then means UNBELIEVE toward God in Christ Jesus stead. That is, for any not to BELIEVE on God’s WORD as it is and ACT accordingly in Christ Jesus stead.

If you wants and must PLEASE GOD, LIVE and WALK in the Spirit and not in your SENSES that you might access God’s PEACE even in the midst of your acclaimed enemy (enemies) and cohorts (More on this is in my later upcoming Book – “Being Divinely Led Of God”).

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“That the COMMUNICATION OF THY FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING OF EVERY GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he maketh even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh . . . 24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the AFFECTIONS and LUSTS. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 24-25.

“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who WALK not after the FLESH, but after the Spirit . . . 8 So then they that are in the FLESH CANNOT PLEASE God” Romans 8:1-8.

“. . . 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.

“From whence come WARS AND FIGHTINGS among you? come they not hence, even of your LUSTS that WAR in your members? 2 Ye LUST, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and CANNOT OBTAIN: ye FIGHT AND WAR, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your LUST” James 4:1-3.
