BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES: BE A – WITNESS – LEADER – AND COMMANDER – AN OVERCOMER – IN YOUR WORLDS!

“Behold, I have GIVEN him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.

We live today in a very challenging and difficult times – Individuals, families and collective society are facing all sorts – both privately and publicly in thoughts or and indeed, to various segments of wants and needs. And the height of trials, temptations and seduction are increasing and mounting up the more especially for the Believer in Christ Jesus – and it’s simply because the enemy and cohorts, knows their days and times are numbered and time is running out on them. But do you as a Believer in Christ Jesus, KNOWS and UNDERSTANDS THE TIMES that you are currently? Do you as a BELIEVER in Christ Jesus stead, do UNDERSTAND your timeline just as the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR?  And what you OUGHT to do to LEAD and to be the COMMANDER – meaning to be in charge – than blaming others for your limitations?

“And of the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR, which were men that had UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES, to KNOW what Israel OUGHT to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and ALL THEIR BRETHREN were at their COMMANDMENT” 1 Chronicles 12:32.

“Behold, I have given him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

Some of the trials, temptations and challenges tends to make one go along with the flow, even when you know full well, it leads to sin and sinful behaviour, while others events are obvious that it may or will cost you your career, leadership, marriage, relationship, opportunity, integrity, position, shame, embarrassment and such like. There’s the need to know that the appetite for the craziness because everyone is doing it or it appeals to you specially or it’s an avenue of meeting and solving the problems and difficulties you are going through may ends badly as a Believer in Christ Jesus; especially when you know it’s obvious it contradicts the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH that can sets one free, and being able to know the needs to uphold in the face of any heights of such trials and temptations, the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH.

“There hath NO TEMPTATION taken you but such as is COMMON to man: but God is FAITHFUL, who will not SUFFER you to be tempted ABOVE that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, FLEE from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; JUDGE [EXAMINE] ye what I SAY” 1 Corinthians 10:13-15.

“Prove all things; HOLD FAST that which is good. 22 ABSTAIN FROM ALL APPEARANCE OF EVIL. 23 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” 1 Thessalonians 5:21-23.

May I announce to you that there is an enabling grace in God to say NO. I mean to say again NO and NO and to sound it loud – NOOOOOOOOOO (is there an English word as such a loud NO, I don’t think so, just an expression). It thus mean that, there is an enabling of God in grace to overcome the little and great height challenges in your worlds of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus. Sometimes you need to run away and in some cases to flee from every appearance of that which defile the enabling of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in your life.

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT AND GODLY LIVES IN THIS PRESENT AGE, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you” Titus 2:11-15 NIV.

The ENEMY and COHORTS knows your WORTH. Do you know your WORTH? And they have prized and price tagged on you. Do you know God’s prized and price tagged on you in REDEMPTION just as He said of Job (Job 1:6-12), I KNOW him and of Abraham (Genesis 18:17-19), I KNOW him. Can God says he KNOWS you, knowing you will uphold your being in Him by the enabling grace He has given to you to say NO, or RUN or FLEE when it’s obviously necessary that your POSSIBILITIES by God is about to be jeopardize by self, the world and probably the devil and cohorts. You know the drill, yeah, you know the drill. Take a STAND in grace today. Romans 5:1-2; Ephesians 6:10-14; 1 Peter 5:8-10.

I make bold to say that you are a World made Overcomer in Christ Jesus. The default is in you in Christ Jesus stead to face trials, temptations and such like and still OVERCOME. James 1:2-8; 1 Corinthians 10:13-15. You can make it a reality and possibility by Believing and acting accordingly in FAITH. Romans 5:1-2; Hebrews 11:6. This is the VICTORY that helps you overcomes your worlds of doing life and living godly – it’s your FAITH on the Scriptural truth to say NO or RUN or FLEE when necessary for your good and the good of others especially too, who looks up to you to ensure TESTIMONY of GRACE and TRUTH in our God. Revelation 12:11. Revelation 19:10.

I pray today that you be emboldened and endeavour to ensure that the enabling grace of God within you works for you to be and remain the OVERCOMER and VICTORIOUS, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and TRIUMPHANT Believer of God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. (1 Corinthians 15:57; Romans 8:37; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 John 5:4-5).

Have an awesome day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

ACTIVATING THE ENABLING GRACE FOR YEAR 2024: GOD’S GRACE IS YOUR PRIMARY AND PURPOSEFUL CALL TO – DO LIFE AND LIVE GODLY IN YEAR 2024!

“But by the GRACE of God I am what I am: and his GRACE which was BESTOWED upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the GRACE of God which was WITH me” 1 Corinthians 15:10.

“And WHEN THEY HAD PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they spake THE WORD of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:31, 33.

There’s enabling GRACE accompany with God’s POWER to do exploit for you, in doing life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead; and now for YEAR 2024, same enabling GRACE accompany with God’s POWER in Christ Jesus is readily available for you and should be your PRIMARY and PURPOSEFUL stand to usher in the New dawning YEAR come 2024. It thus mean, that your utmost urgency now is for you to set out a special moment, to be WITH the LORD – to be in His PRESENCE – wherein you will be engrossed with Him to release you with His enabling GRACE and POWER, in order to ACHIEVE, SUCCEED and be FULFILLED with MERCY, LOVE, PEACE, WISDOM and SPEED His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Thou wilt SHEW me the PATH of LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of JOY; at thy RIGHT HAND there are PLEASURES for EVERMORE” Psalms 16:11.

Our Lord JESUS CHRIST, knows what it means to abound in the PRESENCE of our Father God in order to do life in His humanity in the earthly affairs for the cause of the kingdom. He ensures that all His doings are as LED by Holy Spirit and Father God is in the know, in every step to ensure the POWER to function was there in fulfilling His cause and purpose of God for humanity.

“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was LED by the Spirit into the wilderness . . .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 . . . 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 1-22.

“And in the morning, RISING up a great WHILE before day, he (Jesus) went out, and departed into a SOLITARY place, and there PRAYED” Mark 1:35.

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to PRAY. 29 And AS HE PRAYED, the FASHION of his COUNTENANCE was ALTERED, and his RAIMENT was WHITE and GLISTERING” Luke 9:28-29.

Beloved friend, you don’t need to be in a rush to enter YEAR 2024 and to start marking unfounded NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS and  PRONOUNCEMENTS that you can’t even keep beyond few days or weeks or months afterwards because they are not SCRIPTURALLY based. For these reasons, herein are some matters to consider carefully to curb these unnecessary ARTIFICIAL display that makes no impart and impact to your well-being in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

FIRSTLY, It’s a high time you need to take STOCK and INVENTORY of your life in YEAR 2023 that’s about ending, before taking on YEAR 2024. This you do in these wise as an example:

** All those your SELF-WILLED man-made and make-believe POWER of rushing your hours into your day before its dawn, has it it made any difference in you without stress and anxiety instead of God’s promised rest?

** Those your lengthy days of UNENDING FASTING to prove HOW SPIRITUAL YOU ARE, has it made any remarkable difference in you? Or was it a statuesque to keep, though its a hunger strike and pride in disguise, but you just called it FASTING to make it seem spiritual?

** Have you not wonder that God wants you to LIVE, THRIVE, BLOSSOM and be COLOURFUL and meaningfully FULFILLED? And He doesn’t want you to SURVIVE or be a SURVIVAL? He does wants you to live in LEISURE and PLEASURE through His grace and power, and not in PRESSURE or STRESS?

** And God is about DILIGENCE in all sphere of doing life and living godly? And it’s not about just HARD WORK instead about SMART WORK through innovating exploring creating and initiating? And there’s the need to be PRINCIPLED in taking responsibility and accountability for your cause without blaming someone else?

** You need to ask yourself if the claimed you put in so much effort each day, and yet doesn’t add up, if it does make life WORTH LIVING after all? or you need to change your course into YEAR 2024 of needing God’s GRACE and POWER for His BLESSEDNESS?

SECONDLY, this is my take on you because I can’t help not seeing you LIVE, THRIVE, BLOSSOM and be COLOURFUL in God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS; more so, not wanting to see you SURVIVE or be a SURVIVAL as some have acclaimed to be their terms of living;  also, to help you to know full well, that from your first primary call to SALVATION in Christ Jesus, you are being EMPOWERED to succeed and triumph, especially as such a time as this with YEAR 2023 closing down and YEAR 2024 starting up.

Know full well that your TIME to have a set out COMMUNION moment is now with the LORD. This is in order to receive what it TAKES to make LIFE WORTH LIVING instead of DOING nothing and just WATCHING aimlessly and armless into the dawning YEAR 2024.

All I am saying is that it’s a good time NOT to start asking or making demands as some are consumed about, but to just be in the presence of Father God in the name of Jesus – ONLY and SOLELY – there MINISTERING to Him and Enjoying His presence. It is within this act that Father God can EMPOWER you and SEND you FORTH into YEAR 2023 uniquely with His GRACE, POWER, MERCY, LOVE, PEACE, WISDOM and SPEED in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. This will enable you to DO all your LIFE and GRACE endeavours and biddings, without fail, stress and sweat.

I wants to let you know that by God’s grace and power, you’ll live in REST and LEISURE, that is – stress free, sweat free, pressure and worry free, as you are SENT of God’s PRESENCE into YEAR 2024 rather than when you are a mere WISHY-WASHY GOER on self designed and proclaim ambitions outside God in His Christ Jesus. You need to DERIVE strenght from the Lord and in the power of His might to make life a LIVING WORTH.

I sincerely beg you of the need to learn and apply this SCRIPTURAL PRINCIPLE to all you do in life:

** You are saved and called PRIMARILY and PURPOSEFULLY to be with Father God in Christ Jesus; it’s therein He EMPOWERS you to SUCCEED and be FULFILLED in life. This is what and how Jesus Christ did life in grace with Father God in humanity and has left us as example for us to learn of Him towards the Father God. Amen.

This means in Summary that:

** We ARE SAVED and CALLED – To Be With Him.

** We ARE then EMPOWERED – To Thrive, Succeed and be Fulfilled by God’s Speed.

** We are then ENDOWED with Grace, Wisdom And Speed – to makes all the DIFFERENCE with God.

** We have the RESULTANT effects with Rest, Leisure And Pleasure in Christ Jesus – just as we are PROMISED and the not Stress, worry (anxiety), pressure people experience while they walk in their own effort to make things happen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

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” Romans 5:1-2.

“And he goeth up into a mountain, and CALLETH unto him WHOM he WOULD: and they came unto him. 14 And he ORDAINED twelve, THAT THEY SHOULD BE WITH HIM, and that he might SEND them forth to preach, 15 and to have POWER to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils” Mark 3:13-15.

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH of LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is fulness of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND there are pleasures for evermore” (Psalms 16:11).

“And in the morning, RISING UP a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a SOLITARY PLACE, and there PRAYED” (Mark 1:35).

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to PRAY. 29 And AS HE PRAYED, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering” Luke 9:28-29.

“There remaineth therefore a REST to the people of God. 10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. 11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief” Hebrews 4:9-11.

“. . . 11 for with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is the REST wherewith ye may cause the WEARY TO REST; and this is the REFRESHING: yet they would not hear . . .” Isaiah 28:9-13.

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to HIS PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

IN THE DAWNING YEAR 2024 – ENSURE YOU BUILD YOU LIFE AND FAITH ON THE SURE WORD OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

IN THE DAWNING YEAR 2024 – ENSURE YOU BUILD YOU LIFE AND FAITH ON THE SURE WORD OF GOD: DO NOT BUILD ON MAN-MADE MAKE-UP BELIEVE AND A MERE UNEXAMINED PROPHECY’S!

“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 make bold to say that the New Creation in Christ Jesus stead is GOVERNED by the WORD of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit that bears witness with our own human spirit to assure, ensure and authenticate who we ARE in God. And anything short of this is – COUNTERFEIT, PERVERT, RELIGION, SPIRITISM, HUMAN CREEDS, DOGMAS, SPELL, RELIGIOUS BONDAGE and DENOMINATIONAL CULT. And as such, the New Creation is not under the SLAVERY of any man in the name of PROPHECY, fortune telling, mind reading and any such like human control to perpetuate fear and to cast spells and phobias in order to make one get entangled into their made-up mischievous belief’s. BE WARNED! You are the CUSTODIAN of your today and tomorrow in God in Christ Jesus, and until you leverage such power to the enemy and cohorts, none can and will be able to have dominion over you. So, let no man request of you to be given special prophecy and insights and foresights outside the authority of God’s word affirmations.

“To the LAW and to the TESTIMONY: if they SPEAK not ACCORDING TO THIS WORD, it is because there is NO LIGHT in them” Isaiah 8:20.

The drama of the YEARS of 2020-2021 pandemic lying prophecy and prophesying alike, should be a LESSON for any wise person as I have always said overtime why you must BUILD LIFE and FAITH on THE SURE WORD of God if you must ACHIEVE and SUCCEED with God in His GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Otherwise, mere mortal men, in the name of God and who may not be ASSUREDLY moved by the Holy Spirit, will make a caricature of you through your IGNORANCE and VULNERABILITY, to offer you vision and prophecies that are enticing to your SENTIMENTAL desires. Open your spiritual heart and eyes to search the Scriptures for your own good and favour as the Bereän Christian of Acts 17:10-13 and as Apostle Paul admonished the young Timothy and others in the Holy writ. [2 Timothy 2:15 and 2 Timothy 3:14-17; Acts 20:32; Hebrews 4:12-13].

The condition of the world today, especially during and after the PANDEMIC, have proven while a mere one night CROSSOVER message and PROPHECIES and NEW YEAR RESOLUTION is not what makes you BECOME in God, but it’s your DILIGENCE walk and work of FAITH by God’s grace on the set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT that gives you the enabling into the fulness of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. [Proverbs 22:29; Hebrews 11:6; Proverbs 16:1-3, 7-9].

Therefore, let the DEFINITION of you LIFE and FAITH in God be by the WORD in the FACE of Christ Jesus, on that PREPARED – PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT – that you’ve set forth for in YEAR 2024 and not one wishy-washy NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS and mere one night crossover PROPHECY that you are being told with special offering to seal it as would be lied that God actually intended that from you to wipe away your sorrows and pains of yester years.

Know for SURE and in CERTAINTY, that the NEW CREATION, which you ARE in Christ Jesus, have A MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY in the light of the SCRIPTURES by the reason of our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Therefore, do life and live godly, in the FACE of what Christ Jesus HAS DONE, HE’S DOING and will do in and through you by the Holy Spirit within you by God’s WORD – to make you BECOME what THE WORD said you ARE in Him and will be BY Him and THROUGH Him. This will save you from the falsehoods and errors around that have befallen many today.

“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” Revelation 19:10.

However, if there be a PROPHECY or PROPHESYINGS, despised not at first but JUDGE [EXAMINE] it by the SURE WORD OF PROPHECY if it be of God – that’s the HOW to handle it by FAITH. For genuine PROPHECY or PROPHESYINGS that’s of God and His WORD and that’s inspired, revealed and empowered by the Holy Spirit of promised that’s given to us to bear witness along – does not enforced itself on any or demand a ransom from any to make  it fruitful and come to fruition. And the genuine PROPHECY or PROPHESYINGS is bound but the SCRIPTURAL context to bring about COMFORTS, EXHORTATION AND EDIFICATION – and not fear, intimidation, blaming, cursing, threatening and such like – doesn’t at any point demands for tokens in cash or kind to make it come to pass. God is not the AUTHOR OF CONFUSION and He does not CONFUSED His children because He’s not CONFUSED at all.

“But he that PROPHESIETH SPEAKETH unto men to EDIFICATION, and EXHORTATION, and COMFORT . . . 29 Let the PROPHETS speak two or three, AND LET THE OTHER JUDGE (EXAMINE). 30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. 31 For ye may all PROPHESY one by one, that all may learn, and all may be COMFORTED. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are SUBJECT to the prophets. 33 For God is not the AUTHOR OF CONFUSION, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints . . .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 14:3, 29-33, 39-40 (Emphasis Mine).

I admonish you to SEEK after God today into the YEAR 2023, through His WORD and not through men or man-made make believe, that will keep you in BONDAGE and under or enslaved toward them and not after or toward Christ Jesus. For you BECOME what and whom you BELIEVE. You are a product of your essence of BELIEVE. Today I charge you to BELIEVE God and His WORD in Christ Jesus stead, so that you can BECOME in Him whatsoever you want to be of Him.

“QUENCH not the Spirit. 20 DESPISE NOT PROPHESYINGS. 21 PROVE all things; HOLD FAST that which is good” 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21.

You have a SURE WORD of PROPHECY which is the Holy Writs, that is speaking FORTH of what you ARE and you’ve BECOME in Christ Jesus. For the spirit of genuine PROPHECY is the TESTIMONY (TESTIFYING) of Jesus Christ; meaning it will draw and pull you towards God in Christ Jesus and not toward men. And it does not lead any to further BONDAGE or SLAVERY as to men or satan or self. The SURE WORD of PROPHECY which is of God in Christ Jesus, is not BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER and GRIEVOUS; but it liberates at no cost or charge, and is solely and only, being fulfilled in Christ Jesus as done for us in REDEMPTION; and it’s not on men’s DEMANDS for tokens in cash and or kind, to make it come to pass.

As you get set TODAY to TURN INSIDE OUT YEAR 2024 into reality, take a SCRIPTURAL STAND by the WORD through FAITH in God’s GRACE in Christ Jesus stead [Romans 5:1-2]; and not a mere WISHY-WASHY NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS and man-made PROPHECIES to make you sentimentally and momentarily joyous and afterwards lost in disbelieve what you’ve become outside God by the evaporation of what wasn’t God’s SURE WORD OF PROPHECY that you ignorantly banked and build upon.

As we are set to turn into our TIMED TIMELINE YEAR 2024, I wish you God’s BEST in His grace and BLESSEDNESS as you RESOLVE to make God’s WORD, your SURE WORD OF PROPHECY that will help you EXAMINE every other PROPHECIES and SAYINGS if they be of God, so that you can slide effortlessly, graciously and gracefully into and through to YEAR 2024 without hitches and regrets. That’s how you walk in the LIGHT and not in darkness in the dawning YEAR 2024.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Beware lest any man SPOIL you through PHILOSOPHY and VAIN deceit, after the TRADITION of men, after the RUDIMENTS of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are COMPLETE in him, which is the head of all PRINCIPALITY and POWER: 11 in whom also ye are CIRCUMCISED with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the CIRCUMCISION of Christ: 12 BURIED with him in baptism, wherein also ye ARE risen with him through the faith of the OPERATION of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being DEAD in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he QUICKENED together with him, having FORGIVEN you all trespasses; 14 BLOTTING OUT THE HANDWRITING OF ORDINANCES that was AGAINST us, which was CONTRARY to us, and took it out of the way, NAILING it to his cross; 15 and HAVING SPOILED PRINCIPALITIES AND POWERS, HE MADE A SHEW OF THEM OPENLY, TRIUMPHING OVER THEM IN IT” Colossians 2:8-15.

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

“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.

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11.

“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.

“But the PATH of the just (righteous) is like the LIGHT OF DAWN, That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its FULL STRENGTH and GLORY in] the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18/Amplified

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

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS: “The WORD” Became FLESH

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS: “The WORD” Became FLESH – HUMAN – And The ANSWER To Your QUEST And All MANKIND!

“. . . 14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH . . . 17 For the LAW was given by Moses, but GRACE and TRUTH came by Jesus Christ” John 1:1-5, 14, 17.

This Christmas is all about “The WORD” that became FLESH – HUMAN, whose FULLNESS is of Grace and Truth. And an ANSWER to ALL our QUEST in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

The world today longs for GRACE and TRUTH in our society, which comes purely and can come only genuinely from “The WORD” that became flesh. God spoke “The WORD”, The WORD was received and born in human flesh – humanity. “The WORD” is Christ – the Messiah, Saviour, Deliverer – the REASON we do commemorate and celebrate this SEASON in this Christmas, in this December and for His REDEMPTION cause on earth to all mankind including you.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

Faith on “The WORD” is all you need, to turn your TEST story to TESTIMONY, your SCARCITY to PLENTY, your FAILURE to SUCCESS, your MESS to MESSAGE,  your SETBACK to STEPPING STONE, your DISAPPOINTMENT to APPOINTMENT, the said SICKNESS and DISEASE to HEALING, HEALTH and WHOLENESS, and many more such like. In summary the ANSWER to your QUEST to have a meaningful, colourful, purposeful and fulfilling life is in the WORD – Jesus the Christ.

“The WORD” is Him – Christ Jesus personified, who is our Saviour King and Lord. He’s our Emmanuel – The God WITH us, IN us and FOR us; the God that DWELLS with us in everyway. “The WORD” is your witness, record and embodiment in heavens unity in Trinity to certify the divine purpose on earth.

Therefore, this CHRISTMAS, as you commemorate and celebrate “The WORD” through faith in Him, may your desire be made manifest in the flesh, that is, comes to reality and fruition; and becomes tangible, reachable, touchable, loveable, liveable, and incarnate.

The WORD is all you need to ANSWER that QUEST that has defiled everything mortal in your life and godly living.

I pray you every grace, blessing and speed in The WORD. Amen.

“Beloved, BELIEVE not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many FALSE prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that CONFESSETH that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH is of God: 3 and every spirit that CONFESSETH NOT that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH is not of God: and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now ALREADY is it in the world” 1 John 4:1-3

THE KINGDOM DEMAND

By Leave a Comment

THE KINGDOM DEMAND: “OCCUPY TILL I COME”!

“. . . 12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, OCCUPY TILL I COME . . .” Luke 19:11-27.

Enjoying the enabling grace in the faith of BEING BORN of God is only as authentic and effective and effectual, to as much as you choose and be determined to take a stand to ensure and be assured, that you give no room for fallacy and any contrary to stain and pollute your TESTIMONY of God in Christ Jesus stead.

The kingdom DEMAND for each one of the Believer’s in Christ Jesus is to – “OCCUPY TILL I COME”. It’s not an advice to pick cherry and not of a choice to agree or disagree upon. It’s an order, a command, a mandate and an assignment. And because God in His word of instruction and command is not a taskmaster, or burdensome, or irksome or grievous, He has already made available His enabling endowments to ensure and assure that obedience to His WORD gives peace and tranquility irrespective and without prejudice.

“For this is the love of God, that we KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER]” 1 John 5:3.

The kingdom DEMAND as to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” in this context, is to ensure that you are not living less or out of what you ARE of God in Christ Jesus, in REDEMPTION, as His epistle that’s being seen and read of all men as written:

“Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? 2 Ye ARE our EPISTLE written in our hearts, KNOWN and READ of all men: 3 forasmuch as ye are MANIFESTLY declared to be THE EPISTLE of Christ MINISTERED by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart” 2 Corinthians 3:1-3.

And as being God’s Epistle or open letter that’s being read and known of men in Christ Jesus, it’s imperative that you live to ensure and assure that the fulness of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS that’s upon your life in all wisdom in graciousnesss and gracefulness. That you are not undermined by any means as by the bigots of religion and religiosity, sectarianism and denominationalism, traditional dogmas, creed, make belief and such like that makes the WORD of God of no effect in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Meaning, that, as an EPISTLE you are ensuring and assuring that you are STANDING uncompromisingly and unreservedly for who you ARE without prejudice by FAITH and not limited in this GRACE to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” as one that’s:

** A NEW CREATION of God in Christ Jesus [2 Corinthians 5:17]

** God’s AMBASSADOR/REPRESENTATIVES in Christ Jesus [2 Corinthians 5:20].

** A MORE than conquerors in Christ Jesus [Romans 8:37].

** An OVERCOMER in Christ Jesus [1 John 5:4-5; Revelation 12:11].

** VICTORIOUS in Christ Jesus stead [1 Corinthians 15:57].

** TRIUMPHANT in Christ Jesus stead [2 Corinthians 2:14].

** REDEEMED in Christ Jesus [Colossians 1:12-14/Amplified; Ephesians 1:7; Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29; Revelation 1:5-6; Revelation 5:9-12]

** A CHOSEN GENERATION, a HOLY NATION, A PECULIAR PEOPLE etc in Christ Jesus [1 Peter 2:9-10].

** . . . and MANY SUCH LIKE . . . in Christ Jesus stead.

Also, that you take a STAND by standing in grace by faith of ensuring and assuring of who you ARE, AGAINST any onslaughts and anything that contradicts and goes contrary to your REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus, as may be PERPETUATED by the enemy and cohorts of your FAITH stand in grace to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” demands of the kingdom. For we live in the perilous times and days where are out there are PERVERTERS of the Gospel; and we must vehemently resist their mode of operandi in everywhere by the WORD and in the lead power of the Holy Spirit, to keep the FAITH wherein we stand by GRACE, ensure and assured for our good and our hearers.

“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.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a ROARING lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT [WHOLE, COMPLETE], STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you” 1 Peter 5:8-10/Emphasis Mine.

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would PERVERT THE GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If ANY MAN PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have received, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9.

“Beloved, when I gave all DILIGENCE to write unto you of the common salvation, it was NEEDFUL for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should EARNESTLY CONTEND for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are CERTAIN MEN CREPT IN UNAWARES, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, UNGODLY men, turning the grace of our God into LASCIVIOUSNESS, and DENYING the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ” Jude 1:3-4.

When you ARE able to take your stand FOR your redemption REALITIES and take stand also against any form of the enemy and cohorts strategy and crafty acts of deception in grace by God in Christ Jesus, you ARE indeed living by the Kingdom demand to “OCCUPY TILL I COME”.

Therefore, raise your head up, shoulders high and walk on your high heels of FAITH by the GRACE wherein you STAND, by God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, while enjoying the fulness and purpose to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” mandate.

“Brethren, be FOLLOWERS together of me, and MARK them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. 18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that THEY ARE THE ENEMIES OF THE CROSS of Christ: 19 whose end is destruction, whose God is their BELLY, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) 20 For our CONVERSATION is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to SUBDUE all things unto himself” Philippians 3:17-21.

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG TO BECOME

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG TO BECOME: FOR NO WORD – NO FAITH, IF YOU MUST FUNCTION TO BECOME!

It’s time for you to – DARE TO BELIEVE – in order to BECOME by God’s WORD and in EVERYWAY in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead.

Many times I have seen Church folks being very skeptical for a full dedication and commitment to God’s WORD and to His work in His Church; and yet want the FULLNESS of God’s POWER and GRACE to FUNCTION and BECOME in every way in LIFE and GODLINESS. Most reasons are simply for their FEAR PHOBIA that they may lose out if they do make such acts to be dedicated and committed. And unfortunately, their being skeptical had not made them better in spite of their despised to God’s WORD and His Church – (1 John 5:3-5).

I make BOLD to say that God is GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to His WORD and will NEVER fail and CAN’T and WON’T begin to FAIL because of YOU. And FAITH is only active to bring about results to FUNCTION and BECOME by the WORD – (Romans 10:17). Faith in Christ Jesus, is of the WORD. FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE and neither a doctrinal nor denominational creed and religious dogmas that is just there to be known.

Faith is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus life access and justified essence in grace with God. Faith is ACTING correspondingly on what you believe on God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE, while FAITH is ACTIVE. BELIEVE is the CONCEPTION and CONSEQUENCE of what you HEAR of God’s WORD, while FAITH is the action upon that conception and consequence of the hearing, to bring it into reality accordingly. Meaning a NO FAITH, means a NO access and essence for God to reward one’s endeavors to FUNCTION and BECOME in God – (Hebrews 11:6).

And to FUNCTION and BECOME in God, one needs to ensure that they BELIEVE in Christ Jesus and BELONG to His Church with a daring spirit and not fear phobia, in LIFE and GODLINESS. And you can then FUNCTION and BECOME what you BELIEVE upon in God’s WORD by God’s POWER and GRACE in Christ Jesus. Amen.

I PRAY YOU DARE TO BELIEVE IN ORDER TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN

“But as many as RECEIVED him, to them gave he POWER to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH” John 1:12-14.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous (irksome, burdensome, taskmaster). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMES the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMES the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMES the world, but he that BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“And when Jesus departed thence, TWO BLIND MEN followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. 28 And when he was come into the house, THE BLIND MEN came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, BELIEVE YE THAT I AM ABLE TO DO THIS? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it” Matthew 9:27-30.

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE

By Leave a Comment

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE: FOR IN GOD IN GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS – AGE DOESN’T LIMIT ANY IN FRUITFULNESS!

God gives the enabling grace – anointing – to make us FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in Him. And it is an indication of Him being our ROCK and no UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in all His ways. Psalms 92:12-15; 2 Corinthians 5:21.

The act of FLOURISHING and FRUITFULNESS is not limited to few. It’s tangible, available, reachable and liveable to all, even at OLD age – FOR THERE’S NO LIMITATIONS IN GRACE – Galatians 3:26-29; Psalms 92:12-15. Hence, there’s no room to make excuse, complain, blame and to assume there’s someone responsible and accountable for your UNPRODUCTIVE and UNFRUITFUL state in life, when and while all signs and indications of blossoming and flourishing are there. If there’s anything to blame, it’s ones IGNORANCE to THINK that a mere blossoming and flourishing is sufficient without FRUITFULNESS. Unfortunately, God winked at ignorance. Acts 17:30-31.

Think about this – Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, while in humanity have to rebuke with a woe to the PHARISEES and SCRIBES, who thinks that a mere paying of their TITHE is sufficient to ACCESS God’s favour and to LEGISLATE spirituality, when they overlook the essence of  FRUITFULNESS and the fruitful character of JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITHFULNESS – Matthew 23:23. THINK about it – to BLOSSOM and FLOURISH but no FRUIT does not WIN God’s favour.

Therefore, get yourself PLANTED in the house of the Lord, in order to FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Don’t be a POTTED plant that is not ROOTED in a place and taken about places, but rather be a PLANTED plant that is ROOTED in the house of the Lord, in order to experience not just the segment of flourishing and blossoming as a Palm tree and a cedar in labor, but as a FRUITFUL one in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Remember that Christ Jesus CURSED a fig tree that was BLOSSOMING and FLOURISHING without FRUIT and FRUITFULNESS. Mark 11:11-14.

I PRAY that you will be ROOTED in your PLANTED place such that you will BLOSSOM and FLOURISH in Grace, and become fruitful in all that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING – 2 Peter 1:2-4.

“And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was HUNGRY: 13 and seeing a FIG TREE AFAR OFF HAVING LEAVES, HE CAME, IF HAPLY HE MIGHT FIND ANY THING THEREON: AND WHEN HE CAME TO IT, HE FOUND NOTHING BUT LEAVES; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, NO MAN EAT FRUIT of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it” Mark 11:11-14.

“But my HORN [my emblem of strength and power] You have EXALTED like that of a wild ox; I am ANOINTED with FRESH OIL [for Your service]. 11 My eye has looked on my foes; My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me. 12  The righteous will FLOURISH like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful]; They will GROW like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable]. 13 Planted in the house of the Lord, They will FLOURISH in the courts of our God. 14  [Growing in grace] they will still THRIVE and bear FRUIT and PROSPER in old age; They will FLOURISH and be vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment]; 15 [They are living memorials] to declare that the Lord is upright and faithful [to His promises]; He is my ROCK, and THERE IS NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in Him” Psalms 92:10-15 Amplified

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] SCRIBES and PHARISEES, hypocrites! For you give a TENTH (tithe) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on minor matters], and have NEGLECTED the weightier [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: JUSTICE and MERCY and FAITHFULNESS; but these are the [primary] things you OUGHT to have done without NEGLECTING the others” Matthew 23:23 Amplified.

“Let not then your good be evil spoken of: 17 for the kingdom of God is not MEAT (FOOD) and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:16-18.

SOME SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT ON – FRUITFULNESS AND MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT

By Leave a Comment

SOME SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT ON – FRUITFULNESS AND MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT: SOWING The SEED OF RIGHTEOUSNESS – TO EFFECT THE PEACEABLE FRUIT(S) OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN YOU!

God wants you to be FRUITFUL in every way in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. His FRUIT(S) of RIGHTEOUSNESS are consequence of SOWING the SEED of RIGHTEOUSNESS. For like begat likes, just as a Lion don’t give birth to a Goat and a Mango fruit does not reproduce a Cashew fruit – Genesis 1:11-12; Matthew 12:33-36; Luke 6:43-45 . Our character fruit of righteousness will always reproduce after its kind as we continuously sow the character seed of righteousness in every way of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead.

And the WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNES which is PEACE toward God and humanity, has a corresponding EFFECT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, even as it’s written:

“And the WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNESS shall be PEACE; and the EFFECT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever” Isaiah 32:17.

As a results of the WORK and EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS in FRUITFULNESS, herein are SOME SCRIPTURAL WRIT PRINCIPLES that are worth pondering and noting:

1*. IT IS ONLY THE GOD OF ALL GRACE THAT’S ABLE TO INCREASE YOUR FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AS YOU SOW YOUR SEED:

“And God is ABLE TO MAKE ALL GRACE ABOUND TOWARD YOU; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 NOW HE THAT MINISTERETH SEED TO THE SOWER BOTH MINISTER BREAD FOR YOUR FOOD, AND MULTIPLY YOUR SEED SOWN, AND INCREASE THE FRUITS OF YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS;) 11 being enriched in everything to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God” 2 Corinthians 9:8-11.

2*. THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS IN ALL GOODNESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH:

“For ye were SOMETIMES darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: WALK as children of light: 9 (FOR THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS IN ALL GOODNESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH;) 10 proving what is acceptable unto the Lord” Ephesians 5:8-10.

3*. SOWING THE PEACE OF THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WORTH A LIVING:

“But the WISDOM that is from ABOVE (HEAVENLY) is first PURE, then PEACEABLE, GENTLE, and EASY to be intreated, full of MERCY and GOOD FRUITS, without PARTIALITY, and without HYPOCRISY. 18 And THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is SOWN in peace of them that make peace” James 3:17-18.

4*. ENSURING GODLY CHASTENING THAT YIELDS THE PEACEABLE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

“. . .  11 Now no CHASTENING for the PRESENT seemeth to be joyous, but grievous (severe, painful): nevertheless afterward it YIELDETH THE PEACEABLE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS unto them which are exercised thereby” Hebrews 12:1-11 Emphasis Mine.

  1. BEING FILLED WITH THE FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS MAKES YOU:

“And this I pray, that your LOVE may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; 10 that ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ; 11 BEING FILLED WITH THE FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God” Philippians 1:9-11.

  1. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS MUCH MORE THAN FOOD AND DRINK – IT’S ABOUT RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE AND JOY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT:

“Let not then your GOOD BE EVIL SPOKEN OF: 17 for the kingdom of God is not MEAT (FOOD) and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that IN THESE THINGS SERVETH Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:16-18 Emphasis Mine.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, THE HERB YIELDING SEED, AND THE FRUIT TREE YIELDING FRUIT AFTER HIS KIND, WHOSE SEED IS IN ITSELF, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good” Genesis 1:11-12.

“Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. 34 O generation of vipers, HOW CAN YE, BEING EVIL, SPEAK GOOD THINGS? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. 36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment” Matthew 12:33-36.

“FOR A GOOD TREE BRINGETH NOT FORTH CORRUPT FRUIT; NEITHER DOTH A CORRUPT TREE BRING FORTH GOOD FRUIT. 44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A good man out of the GOOD TREASURE OF HIS HEART bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the EVIL TREASURE OF HIS HEART bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh” Luke 6:43-45.
