WELCOME TO EMMANUEL MONTH – DECEMBER 2024: MONTH OF ENACTING – “EMMANUEL – THE LOVE OF GOD WITH US” – IN CHRIST JESUS!

“That Christ may DWELL in your hearts by faith; that ye, BEING ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN LOVE, 18 may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 and TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, WHICH PASSETH [TRANSCENDS] KNOWLEDGE [SENSES], that ye might be FILLED with all the FULNESS of God” Ephesians 3:17-19/Emphasis Mine.

I sincerely welcome you to the EMMANUEL month – DECEMBER 2024; It is the Month to experience the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus, that transcends the reasoning of the senses [see, hear, feel/touch, smell and taste] – that’s the LOVE OF GOD WITH US that’s beyond sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation; and it’s the month of experiencing, expressing and enacting the genuity of – THE LOVE OF GOD THAT’S BEYOND KNOWLEDGE – in Christ Jesus that’s dwelling WITH us as IN us and FOR us. So therefore, under God and in God’s divine names in Christ Jesus, I hereby WELCOME you with the hearts of love in Christ Jesus stead, to join me in EMMANUEL MONTH – month DECEMBER 2024 that’s entitled “THE LOVE OF GOD WITH US” in Christ Jesus; it is the month for us to KNOW THE LOVE OF GOD THAT TRANSCEND SENSE KNOWLEDGE as we do life and godly living in the Month with this knowing and understanding that it is also:

THE COMMEMORATION AND CELEBRATIONS OF GOD’S LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS AND HIS REDEMPTION CAUSE ON EARTH TO ALL MANKIND.

I am fully persuaded and excited, knowing and understanding by God’s enabling grace that the month DECEMBER as entitled – “THE LOVE OF GOD WITH US” in Christ Jesus, is beyond the beyond human sense knowledge. And it is about EMMANUEL, the God WITH US and the God IN US and the God FOR US, which is the person of JESUS THE CHRIST – The MESSIAH, The SAVIOUR and The LORD – that’s BORN in our HEARTS by the Holy Spirit that’s given and lavished to us, in order to express the God’s love that’s beyond knowledge – senses in our being.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because THE LOVE OF GOD is shed [lavished] abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN UNTO US. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ DIED for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, in that, while we were yet SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5-8.

The Month DECEMBER 2024, as we all know, is the Month TWELVE (12) of the Julian and Gregorian Calendar Months. It happen to be the last in the numerical Monthly count of the yearly numbering. Besides this, there are other indications of the number TWELVE. Herein are few for your perusal:

** The number 12 is ubiquitous — it’s the number of months in a year, hours on a clock face and the number of members on a typical court jury.

** The number 12 is mentioned often in the New Testament of the Bible, such as Jesus’ selection of 12 apostles. That choice was deliberate, with each apostle representing one of the 12 tribes of Israel. In the most of cases number 12 is actually a representation of authority and perfection.

** This number can also represent the CHURCH and FAITH in general. It can be also used as a symbol of divine rule, actually the symbol of the perfect government of God.

Month DECEMBER is a unique month in many ways and respect in terms of been the twelve month as mentioned and described above. It’s also a gracious month to enhance the goodness and BLESSEDNESS of the BEAUTY of God’s work in humanity as per the Scriptural writ of the month DECEMBER as theme and entitled:

“Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall CALL his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, GOD WITH US” Matthew 1:23.

“For unto you is born THIS DAY in the city of David a SAVIOUR, which is Christ the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, AND ON EARTH PEACE, GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN” Luke 2:11-14.

“Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST” Matthew 16:20.

Upon the basis of the SCRIPTURES above, I therefore say to you in the name of the Lord God, that by – THIS DAY – BEING TODAY, LET EMMANUEL – THE LOVE OF GOD IN JESUS THE CHRIST – The MESSIAH, THE SAVIOUR AND LORD GOD – BE BORN IN YOUR HEARTS as you do life to live godly as themed:

“EMMANUEL! THE LOVE OF GOD WITH US”

The theme as stated is of EMMANUEL – The GOD WITH US. For EMMANUEL indicates – THE LOVE OF GOD BEYOND KNOWLEDGE that’s WITH US – and thus signifies God dwelling (or had come to dwell) with humanity – thereby creates a new passage for a new kind of RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP between us and Him that’s built on love and the love of the Fatherhood of God, making a family in Christ Jesus. For we lost this RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP in the Eden of Adam; but God in His LOVE at the Birth of JESUS THE CHRIST, has RESTORED this awesome FELLOWSHIP to enhance our RELATIONSHIP In Him, which was and is made possible, in the CAUSE of His REDEMPTION for us in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 of whom THE WHOLE FAMILY IN HEAVEN AND EARTH IS NAMED, 16 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man” Ephesians 3:14-16.

God in humanity is JESUS in name; while CHRIST depicts Him as – the EMMANUEL, the MESSIAH, the SAVIOUR, the REDEEMER and the HOLY ONE of Israel for His cause on earth for human redemption.

We’ve been called into this FELLOWSHIP of GOD’S LOVE in Christ Jesus, so that we might enjoy God and the heavens RELATIONSHIP on earth again; so we can say that as “HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD” and can joyfully ask of HIS WILL to be done in our domain on this side of heaven call the earth, as it’s written in the Holy Writ of 1 John 4:17 and Matthew 6:10.

“Herein is our LOVE made perfect, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment: because as HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD” 1 John 4:17.

“Thy KINGDOM come. THY WILL BE DONE IN EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN” Matthew 6:10.

This then is the REASON for the SEASON, the DECEMBER mood that comes along with CHRISTMAS which is:

 “The Yearly and Annual COMMEMORATION and CELEBRATION of God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus and His REDEMPTION CAUSE on EARTH” for the good of ALL mankind.

And it is as we EXPLORE His LOVE in His PRESENCE in this RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP of JESUS – THE CHRIST, who is our God EMMANUEL, we can then ENACT Him in IN us, FOR us and WITH us; and when our PATH OF LIFE is ordered alright in this essence of God EMMANUEL, we can then enjoy to the FULNESS, the abounding  PLEASURES of God in His grace and BLESSEDNESS forevermore. Amen. [Psalms 16:11; Psalms 65:11-13/NLT; 1 Corinthians 1:9].

Therefore today, as in this Month DECEMBER that prelude the CHRISTMAS season, let’s take advantage of the indwelling LOVE of God in EMMANUEL – JESUS the Christ, in order to enjoy continuously, God’s presence in FELLOWSHIP and in our path of life to keep us thriving, blossoming and glowing with His pleasures in life and godliness.

Therefore Today, THIS DAY, I pray that EMMANUEL – THE LOVE OF GOD WITH US – in the personal of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, comes to be in your life, in this Month DECEMBER, this season that prelude the Christmas, in Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

Be BLESSED in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“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 . . . 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 SHALL ALL MEN KNOW THAT YE ARE MY DISCIPLES, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1, 34-35.

“As the Father hath LOVED me, so have I LOVED you: CONTINUE YE IN MY LOVE. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall ABIDE IN MY LOVE; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and ABIDE IN HIS LOVE. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 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 15:9-14.

THINK WISDOM – THE WISDOM OF GOD FOR LIVING

By Leave a Comment

THINK WISDOM – THE WISDOM OF GOD FOR LIVING: WISDOM IS THE APPLICATION OF KNOWLEDGE – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“. . . 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God . . .” 1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

I am emboldened to inform you, that you can’t be able to ENACT and APPROPRIATE SCRIPTURALLY by God’s WISDOM what you don’t KNOW and UNDERSTAND in Christ Jesus stead. Therefore THINK WISDOM, in Christ Jesus’ stead, for He’s the WISDOM of God as He’s the POWER of God. Otherwise, it’s religion, denominational concepts and ideas, man-made beliefs, religious dogmas, and traditional creeds, leading to doctrinal mishaps and bondages, adulteration, and confusion.

Wisdom is the principal enabling of God’s grace to do life in the New Creation, otherwise, you will do life through sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation, which is exhausting, tiring and weakening. The wisdom of God – gives life, empowers, it defences, gives direction, it emboldens, it illuminates and it discerns to ensures the sixth sense makes scriptural judgement. [Proverbs 4:7; Ecclesiastes 7:12; Ecclesiastes 8:1, 5].

And if any lacks wisdom, know there’s an opportunity to ask of God who gives to all generously without a shadow of doubting and disputation [James 1:5-8].

Therefore, think wisdom – the wisdom of God for living, for wisdom is the application of knowledge for your effectual and meaningful cause in the Kingdom, as you do life and live godly, in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the WISDOM OF THE WISE, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish THE WISDOM OF THIS WORLD? 21 For after that in THE WISDOM OF GOD the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 but God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 and base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29 that no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us WISDOM, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

“For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and money is a defence: but the EXCELLENCY OF KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM giveth LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:12.

“Wisdom is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding” Proverbs 4:7.

“Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man’s wisdom maketh his face to SHINE, and the BOLDNESS of his face shall be changed . . . 5 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart DISCERNETH both time and judgment” Ecclesiastes 8:1, 5.

“And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with ENTICING WORDS OF MAN’S WISDOM, but in demonstration of the SPIRIT and of POWER: 5 that your FAITH should not STAND in the WISDOM OF MEN, but in the POWER of God. 6 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. 9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which MAN’S WISDOM teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST”. 1 Corinthians 2:1-16.

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL

By Leave a Comment

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL: GIVES SALVATION UNTO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

The Gospel of Christ Jesus, it’s the POWER of God that brings about the SALVATION of all mankind for today and tomorrow. How relevant it is today than ever before, in the midst of the turbulence, confusion, distrust, breakdown, hunger, chaos, wars, pandemic and such like, that have raven our world today.

And SALVATION in this context is not necessarily only about just being born of God into His Kingdom; but it’s also about matters of life and not limited to the following: PEACE, SOUND MIND, HEALTH, PROSPERITY, HEALING, SECURITY, SAFETY, DELIVERANCE, RESTORATION, STRENGHT, LIVELIHOOD, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP and Such like the MORE.

So, the preaching of the GOSPEL is the preaching THE WORD of God, which is the preaching of Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD, the GOOD NEWS of human redemption. The good news is that man’s debt and eternal judgement it’s everted because Christ Jesus has paid for it by the sacrifice He made to take on the human condemnation – which is the consequence of sin, so that man can be JUSTIFIED before God instead facing the Judgement of condemnations; and thereafter man can then live in FREEDOM from since and it’s effect, in an onward and upward trajectory toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“And THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be PREACHED in all the world for a WITNESS unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:14.

“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.

“Yea, so have I strived to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city” Acts 8:1-8.

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

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER: CHRIST JESUS IS THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD!

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore ERR, because ye KNOW NOT THE SCRIPTURES, neither THE POWER OF GOD?” Mark 12:24.

“. . . 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD, and THE WISDOM OF GOD . . .” 1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

When persons or rather people don’t know the genuine POWER of God that is of Christ Jesus stead, they give into SORCERIES and BEWITCHING. And over the years many have found themselves into such bondages as the Scriptures says in Hosea 4:6 and Isaiah 5:13-15, that my people perish for lack of knowledge and had become prey and captives and have gone further into captivity for lack of knowledge. And I know exactly what it all means.

It’s for this lack of knowledge that a whole city of Samaria in Bible days was held in captivity and BEWITCHED with SORCERIES because a man called Simon and not Christ Jesus, was considered to be the great POWER of God. And multitude became victims and prey to this outrageous acts of SORCERIES and BEWITCHING by a man that held them as PREY and in CAPTIVITY for a very long, long time.

Take a look today and picture, how many have taken similar seating position in many supposed believer’s life by the accordance they give to these fallible men as to have the great POWER of God than to Christ Jesus in the fulness of the activities been carried out about them. And unfortunately, like Simon, these fallible men allowed these applaud of what they are not, to happen and keeping happening because they know that the people are BEWITCHED by their SORCERIES acts knowingly and unknowingly.

It’s for these acts and route of attributing the POWER of God that is of Christ Jesus to men, that cause God to let King Herod to be eaten up with worms when he allowed himself to be consumed by the applaud of men in Acts 12:20-24. That single act of God as happened also to Simon in Acts 8:18-24 with sharp and heavy handed rebuke, for wanting to buy the Holy Spirit with money in order to maintain his status, was needful then and more today, so that the the genuine POWER and the WORD of God which is of Christ Jesus, could multiply in the hearts of men rather than the falsehood of these fallible men that’s BEWITCHING by SORCERIES, the creation of God as it was of Simon of Samaria.

Therefore, think and ponder today, if you are one of those attributing the POWER of God which is of Christ Jesus to a man, thereby leading them to errors; also, if you are one of the men as Simon and king Herod, receiving the accordance of the POWER of God, which is of Christ Jesus as yours, in order to maintain and keep the status of your pride and arrogance, in bewitching the people with that act, practice and scheme that you are using which is unknown to your followers.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall LIVE by faith” Romans 1:16-17

“. . . 9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used SORCERY, and BEWITCHED the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: 10 to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the GREAT POWER of God. 11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had BEWITCHED them with SORCERIES. 12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Then Simon himself BELIEVED also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done . . .” Acts 8:1-24.

“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no POWER but of God: the POWERS that be are ORDAINED of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: 4 for he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. 5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake . . .” Romans 13:1-10.

“And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country. 21 And upon a set day Herod, ARRAYED in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an ORATION unto them. 22 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the VOICE of a god, and not of a man. 23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he GAVE NOT God the glory: and he was eaten of worms and gave up the ghost. 24 But THE WORD of God GREW and MULTIPLIED” Acts 12:20-24.

“MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also REJECT thee, that thou shalt be NO PRIEST to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6.

“Therefore MY PEOPLE ARE GONE INTO CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their HONOURABLE men are FAMISHED, and their multitude dried up with thirst. 14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure:and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. 15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled” Isaiah 5:13-15.

PASTORAL MINISTRY – IT’S NOT A GAME

By Leave a Comment

PASTORAL MINISTRY – IT’S NOT A GAME: IT’S A SHEPHERD AND SHEPHERDING MINISTERIAL CALLING!

You are either CALLED or NOT. Everyone CALLED is a MESSENGER. And every MESSENGER is GIVEN a SPECIFIC and SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT with a MESSAGE to FEED the FLOCKS – God’s own Heritage – with the needed KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, that’s TOWARD God and His Christ, and NOT TOWARD man or creation at all. John 17:3/Jeremiah 3:15.

“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.

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

Those NOT CALLED, are not MESSENGERS but HIRELING – Thieves and Robbers – John 10:8, 12-13. And with such there is NO MESSAGE nor any specific given assignment of God but that of their self indulgence, gratification, men applaud and egotism under the influence of satanic/demonic and cohorts mission. This is the reason for – Adulteration, Schism, Bewitching, Robbery, Dogmas, Sorcery, Falsehoods, Confusion and such like, in the body Ministry of the Gospel, indicating and supposedly the signs of the last days – Philippians 1:15-18; 2 Timothy 3:1-9; 2 Peter 3:1-7.

These sets of SELF-MADE-UP and SELF-CALLED Pastors, are full of fables, philosophy of men, endless genealogies, vain jangling, teachers of idealism and realism, denominational made up creeds, man-made tradition and dogmas that leads people to further bondages and hence makes God’s WORD of no effect in the Gospel. 1 Timothy 1:1-11.

PASTORAL MINISTRY? It’s not an Office Position – It’s a set Ministerial Calling – It’s a SHEPHERD and SHEPHERDING that is principled with responsibility and accountability in Christ Jesus stead, for the GLORY and PRAISE of God. Galatians 6:14-16; Revelation 4:11. It’s a set MINISTERIAL calling to LEAD and LEADERSHIP of God’s REDEEMED, PRECIOUS and BLESSED people; and not to the BOSS and DOMINEER people around for self-gratification and egotism. There’s no room for SELF INTEREST and SELFISHNESS in the PASTORAL MINISTRY as a SHEPHERD and SHEPHERDING of God.

Also, you are either sent by God as John the Baptist and the Disciples as in the Gospel days or you are your own sending. God does call and send [John 1:6-36; Mark 6:7-13]. Those he called and send, He keeps and protects and defends. It’s not about liking the Ministerial outfits but being called and sent forth should be paramount.  Send forth could be to a person to enhance the calling or to a people, or to a generation or to a dispensation or to a community or to a special group of people. You must know the definition of the calling and sending before taking a step because of the warfare and many uncertainty and unknown in cause and course of that obedience demands without having any reason to regrets your step of faith to advance the kingdom of our God and to keep the Enemy and cohorts at bay.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

“And I will SET UP SHEPHERDS over them which shall FEED them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the Lord” Jeremiah 23:4.

“The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 2 FEED the FLOCK of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for FILTHY LUCRE, but of a READY MIND; 3 neither as being lords over God’s HERITAGE, but being ENSAMPLES to the FLOCK. 4 And when the CHIEF SHEPHERD shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away” 1 Peter 5:1-4.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is A THIEF AND A ROBBER. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is THE SHEPHERD OF THE SHEEP. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers . . . 11 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD: the GOOD shepherd giveth his life for the SHEEP. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 14 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD, and know my sheep, and am known of mine . . .” John 10:1-18.

“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 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.

“Be thou DILIGENT to know the STATE OF THY FLOCKS, and LOOK WELL TO THY HERDS. 24 For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation? 25 The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered. 26 The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field. 27 And thou shalt have goats’ milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens” Proverbs 27:23-27.

“And he GAVE some, APOSTLES; and some, PROPHETS; and some, EVANGELISTS; and some, PASTORS and TEACHERS; 12 for the PERFECTING (MATURING, EQUIPPING) of the saints, for the WORK of the ministry, for the EDIFYING of the body of Christ: 13 till we all come in the UNITY of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a PERFECT (MATURED) man, unto THE MEASURE of the STATURE of the FULNESS of Christ: 14 that we henceforth be NO MORE children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 but SPEAKING the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 from whom the WHOLE body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the EFFECTUAL working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the EDIFYING of itself in love” Ephesians 4:11-16 (Emphasis Mine).

“Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; 25 THAT FRUSTRATETH THE TOKENS OF THE LIARS, AND MAKETH DIVINERS MAD; THAT TURNETH WISE MEN BACKWARD, AND MAKETH THEIR KNOWLEDGE FOOLISH; 26 THAT CONFIRMETH THE WORD OF HIS SERVANT, AND PERFORMETH THE COUNSEL OF HIS MESSENGERS; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof” Isaiah 44:24-26.

“There was a man SENT from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a WITNESS, TO BEAR WITNESS OF THE LIGHT, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world . . . 15 John bare WITNESS of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. 18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him . . .” John 1:1-36.

“And he called unto him the twelve, and began to SEND them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits; 8 and commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse: 9 but be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats. 10 And he SAID unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place. 11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city. 12 And they went out, and preached that men should repent. 13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them” Mark 6:7-13.

SCRIPTURAL TRUTH: YOU CAN ONLY BE MISTAKEN – FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE!

By Leave a Comment

SCRIPTURAL TRUTH: YOU CAN ONLY BE MISTAKEN – FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE!

“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are MISTAKEN, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

People are walking in errors, held captive and taken mistakenly in life because of not having a genuine KNOWLEDGE with the corresponding UNDERSTANDING of the matter in questions about them and those or things they care passionately about. That’s why living by SENTIMENT, ASSUMPTION or PRESUMPTION is an error by every means of judgement in the affairs of DOING LIFE AND GODLY LIVING as a redeemed child of God.

It is ‘THE TRUTH’, only THE TRUTH not just TRUTH or a mere ‘FACT or SENTIMENT, ASSUMPTION’ or ‘PRESUMPTION’, that you Know, that sets you FREE in the Kingdom; and it’s the TRUTH that gives you the Liberation and genuine Freedom that you need to become a VICTOR and not a VICTIM or PREY. The TRUTH indicates a person, meaning the personality. Its presence in one’s life creates the being that sets free.

You need to know and understand full well that a mere FACT(S) can be photoshop or misconstrued and faked – counterfeited; and it’s also limited in divine nature and conscripts to ascertain matters; but THE TRUTH will deal with ONE’S CONSCIOUSNESS no matter HOW or WHAT or WHERE or WHEN in one’s spirit being to unveil or uncover that which only the invisible, authenticate WORD of God can reveal (Hebrews 4:12-13).

The TRUTH is self empowering. Bury the TRUTH, it will arise on the third day without any assistance to ANSWER any QUEST hidden, misconstrued, conspired or deleted.

Living continually by the TRUTH is made possible by the Holy Spirit of TRUTH. For the TRUTH is THE WORD who then is JESUS. He can’t live GENUINELY IN YOU and you still WALK in errors, deceit and compromise. And If you know you are in errors, deceit, compromise and such like, you NEED a wholesome check by God’s WORD by the Holy Spirit to set you free indeed. Then you CAN actually have a solid WORD-Based Foundation in Christ Jesus and continue STEADFASTLY on the WORD, which is the TRUTH to ensure your freedom and liberation in ALL things in the light of the Holy Writ.

It’s my utmost PRAYER today, that you might come to know THE TRUTH himself and obtain the liberation and freedom you need now and always in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye CONTINUE in my WORD, then are ye my disciples INDEED; 32 and ye shall KNOW the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall make you FREE” John 8:31-32.

“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are MISTAKEN, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of TRUTH, is come, he will guide you into all TRUTH: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come” John 16:13.

“For THE WORD OF GOD IS LIVING AND ACTIVE AND FULL OF POWER [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged [b]sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, and revealed to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13 (Amplified).

THIS CHRISTMAS – THIS DECEMBER

THIS CHRISTMAS – THIS DECEMBER: LET JESUS THE CHRIST AND LORD –  BE BORN IN YOUR HEART!

“All the ENDS of the WORLD shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the NATIONS shall WORSHIP before thee. 28 For the KINGDOM is the Lord’s: and HE is the GOVERNOR among the NATIONS. 29 All they that be fat upon EARTH shall eat and WORSHIP: all they that go DOWN to the DUST shall BOW before him: and none can keep ALIVE his own soul.” Psalms 22:27-29.

When I go to bed almost in every evening night falls and say my benediction in committing and rededicating my being and well-being into the hands of my uncreated creator Father God, I feel so assured and insured that whatever happened in the midst of my sleep, that He who holds the world and my being in the hollow of His hands will make it all good. Revelation 4:11; Isaiah 45:11-12; Isaiah 49:16.

And it’s with the same attitude of gratitude, that I take on to live purposefully and meaningfully to fulfill His pleasure, glory and majesty; for when I wake up in the morning to behold the brand new dawn day given to me, to explore by my same unchanging changer God without struggle, fear and worries in the midst of a turbulent and unpredictable world, it’s all for the decision I made years ago. Hence, there’s the daily hope of living in grace and BLESSEDNESS in stress-less and sweat-less sphere in spite of the enormous daily task worth not mentioning here.

So, ALL these sleeping and waking up as described above, are ONLY possible because I have resolved the most important factor given freely to all mankind by the creator Himself (Psalms 24:1; Revelation 4:11). This I did over four decades ago, to make JESUS, the CHRIST to be both my Saviour and Lord in every facet of my being for the good and goodness of my well being.

So today, this day, in this December of the commemoration and celebration of Christmas, in honour of the birth of Jesus the Christ and Lord, I plead with you to make Him Jesus the Christ, your personal SAVIOUR and LORD in all that pertains to doing life and living godly. Then you can actual God’s meaningful purpose and fulfilment without prejudice.

Amen” Revelation 1:5-6.

“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 . . . 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 SHALL ALL MEN KNOW THAT YE ARE MY DISCIPLES, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1, 34-35.

“As the Father hath LOVED me, so have I LOVED you: CONTINUE YE IN MY LOVE. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall ABIDE IN MY LOVE; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and ABIDE IN HIS LOVE. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 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 15:9-14.

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; BUT FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, BUT BY LOVE SERVE ONE ANOTHER. 14 For all the law is fulfilled in ONE WORD, even in this; Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself” Galatians 5:6, 13-14.

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: AND THESE THREE ARE ONE” 1 John 5:7.

WELCOME TO THE MONTH OCTOBER2020

WELCOME TO THE MONTH OCTOBER2020: MONTH TO – BEAUTIFY AND COLOUR YOUR WORLDS IN FAITH!

It’s our Time and Month to use our PRECIOUS FAITH in Christ Jesus stead, to BEAUTIFY and COLOUR THE WORLD’S we EARNESTLY desired and wants to see daily in LIFE and GODLY LIVING – 2 Peter 1:1-4. It’s your creative, innovative and exploring timeline and timeless opportunity to ensure that your well-being is an OUTCOME of your PRECIOUS FAITH in God by Christ Jesus stead and not an OUTCOME outside the TENET of your PRECIOUS FAITH – otherwise it will be religion, dogmas and further bondages – Galatians 5:1, 13; Galatians 3:1-14.

The great HALLMARK of our REDEMPTION, is the REDEMPTION from SIN – which gives us rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead OVER the effects of SIN: POVERTY, SICKNESS AND SPIRITUAL DEATH. Not only are we REDEEMED from these effects, we were and are ushered access to RECEIVE of God in Christ Jesus stead: POWER, RICHES, WISDOM, STRENGTH, HONOUR, GLORY, and BLESSING (Revelation 5:9-12; Psalms 68:18; Ephesians 4:7-8).

The REDEMPTION ACCESS of God for us in Christ Jesus stead (Romans 5:1-2), TRANSFORMED (TRANSLATED, TRANSFIGURED) and POSITIONED us in His enabling grace from a SINNER to a SAINT; and therein we can now OFFER unto God a gracious and graceful WORSHIP WORTHILY and SERVE Him ACCEPTABLY in the FELLOWSHIP of His CHURCH. This is BEAUTIFUL and COLOURFUL in that He MADE this possible by MAKING us firstly His in this wise:

“Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . . 9 But ye are a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an Holy nation, a PECULIAR people; that ye should SHEW FORTH THE PRAISES of him who hath CALLED you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 10 which in time past were not a people, BUT ARE NOW THE PEOPLE OF GOD: which had not obtained mercy, but now have OBTAINED mercy” 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10.

Jesus in humanity INCREASE in His worlds sphere in – Wisdom, Physique, Favour With God and Favour With Men (Luke 2:52). He made known that He was/is in a beautiful and colour relationship that is unique with Father God of which we also have access to same Father God in creation and in Him today (John 10:30-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 1:26-27; Ephesians 3:14-15; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30).

God has given us BEAUTY for ASHES, OIL OF JOY for MOURNING and GARMENT OF PRAISE for THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS. He has also MADE us TRESS of RIGHTEOUSNESS – a planting of His own making, that He might be GLORIFIED (Isaiah 61:1-3; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Romans 10:15).

Why LIVE LESS than WHO and WHAT you are MADE to BE in Christ: God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Romans 5:17, 21).

With REPENTANCE towards God and FAITH in Christ Jesus, you have access to all that’s good, beautiful and colourful in God (Acts 20:21; Romans 5:1-2; Mark 11:22).

God has bestowed in you THE MEASURE of FAITH not A MEASURE of FAITH to enable you have your worlds (health, relationship, family, finance, career, business and such likes) beautify and coloured. This FAITH enables you to OVERCOME all the forces that are in and of the world been orchestrated by the enemy and cohorts of our FAITH in Christ Jesus (Romans 12:3; Habakkuk 2:4; 1 John 5:3-5).

Therefore, make month OCTOBER to be your New Dawn to BEAUTIFY and COLOUR your WORLDS – and to make all things for good happen for now in LIFE and GODLINESS.

THE CHOICE IS YOURS.

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL

THE KINGDOM GOSPEL: GIVES SALVATION UNTO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

The Gospel of Christ Jesus, it’s the POWER of God that brings about the SALVATION of all mankind for today and tomorrow. How relevant it is today than ever before, in the midst of the turbulence, confusion, distrust, breakdown, hunger, chaos, wars, pandemic and such like, that have raven our world today.

And SALVATION in this context is not necessarily only about just being born of God into His Kingdom; but it’s also about matters of life and not limited to the following: PEACE, SOUND MIND, HEALTH, PROSPERITY, HEALING, SECURITY, SAFETY, DELIVERANCE, RESTORATION, STRENGHT, LIVELIHOOD, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP and Such like the MORE.

So, the preaching of the GOSPEL is the preaching THE WORD of God, which is the preaching of Christ Jesus, who is THE WORD, the GOOD NEWS of human redemption. The good news is that man’s debt and eternal judgement it’s everted because Christ Jesus has paid for it by the sacrifice He made to take on the human condemnation – which is the consequence of sin, so that man can be JUSTIFIED before God instead facing the Judgement of condemnations; and thereafter man can then live in FREEDOM from since and it’s effect, in an onward and upward trajectory toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Yea, so have I strived to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:20-21.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is THE POWER of God UNTO SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city” Acts 8:1-8.

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

“There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” Romans 8:1-2.

“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.
