PRAYING FOR YOU: FOR AN EFFECTUAL FAITH COMMUNICATION TO LIFE AND GRACE MATTERS!

“A man’s belly shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH; and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in THE POWER OF THE TONGUE: and they that LOVE it shall EAT the FRUIT thereof” Proverbs 18:20-21.

Words matter in the kingdom and in the grace. Much so, words formulation and communication in terms, defines you, in every day of endeavouring to do life and live godly in the grace. And there’s satisfaction in the fruits of our sayings [communication], more so, in defining our today and tomorrow. Hence, we must watch out at our words, for it to do us earthly good and heavenly goodness. And to be EFFECTUAL in our word of faith communication, is to be successful in accomplishing [producing or being capable of producing] the desired and intended results in the grace. It thus means that an EFFECTUAL FAITH COMMUNICATION is utmost important to your thriving, flourishing and fulfilment if you must experience a MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL and FULFILLING living as a Believer in Christ Jesus stead.

Let’s recall a pure example for our living as found in our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. For while in His humanity, He was communicating graciousness in the midst of all odds and contrary, to silence the religion and sectarianism of His days; and to indicate the HOW to communicate on earthly affairs with the heavenly, by the mystery of FAITH. For where others might be communicating swear words, foul words, faithless words, hopeless words and loveless words, religious dogmas and creeds words, and such like unscriptural words, Jesus was testifying and communicating the heavenly gracious words to life situations in every phase of doing life and living godly in His humanity. And the scripture bares Him witness in this act of communication.

“And ALL BARE Him (Jesus) WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED OUT OF HIS MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

And to COMMUNICATE is to – speak, say, talk, declare, announce – forth to life MATTERS – challenges and situations, by your FAITH on the WORD of God, in Christ Jesus stead, in order to get an EFFECTUAL result. For FAITH is to act correspondingly on what you BELIEVE of the WORD of God accordingly in context. FAITH is active while to believe is passive. And to BELIEVE is to be pregnant with the WORD which by exercising FAITH, content in context have to deliver unhindered.

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of EVERY GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:4-6.

That matter and or the matter of life that appears as MOUNTAIN, VALLEY, CROOKED ROAD and ROUGH PLACE – are classed as long-standing obstacles, to your path to an effectual and a successful well-being. And for your meaningful triumph and victory, it needs a FAITH COMMUNICATION to ensure you have an EFFECTUAL – productive and results oriented – atmosphere in your PURPOSEFUL walk of faith in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For verily I SAY unto you, That WHOSOEVER shall SAY unto THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have WHATSOEVER he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:23-24.

And to COMMUNICATE to your life MATTERS – challenges and situations, is the only means for an EFFECTUAL (PRODUCTIVE) result that’s free of sorrow, stress and sweat, in matters of doing life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. All this is simply because the VICTORY and TRIUMPH has been DONE – meaning A DONE DEED – in Christ Jesus, and ours is to live daily in the affirmative to ENACT and AUTHENTIC it by TESTIFYING to it through the ACKNOWLEDGING (ACKNOWLEDGEMENT) of the good done in us by God in Christ Jesus. Amen. Those who OVERCOME in the Bible days, did not only believe in the blood of their redemption in Christ Jesus, but testified to the TESTIMONY of their redemption to the devil and cohorts in the grace. And the TESTIMONY of their redemption is nothing else but about Jesus Christ. And that’s truly the spirit of prophecy – testifying [communicating] of what God has done in you, doing in you and doing through by His word and the indwelling Holy Spirit, in  Christ Jesus. And the Believers of God in Christ Jesus stead has the sure and assured word of prophecy to speak [communicate] forth by faith, in doing life and living godly, as they communicate their VICTORY as being VICTORIOUS in the grace, and not as VICTIMS – for this is HOW to OVERCOME the respective camouflage of the world’s daily challenges.

“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 12:12.

“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.

“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 [COMMUNICATED] as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:19-21/Emphasis Mine.

“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.

It’s upon the above KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of the scriptural context that I thereby PRAY FOR YOU today, just as Apostle Paul did pray for Philemon in Philemon 1:4-6, that he might come to the knowledge and understanding of having an EFFECTUAL result in all live dealings in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. That’s how to articulate the Abrahamic BELIEVE and FAITH to turn things around, that supposedly went against the natural law on the womb of Sarah, in order for her to give birth again after time is past to do so by calling [saying, declaring, announcing, proclaiming, testifying , communicating] – the THINGS that be NOT as though there WERE in the grace.

“We having the SAME spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore SPEAK [COMMUNICATE]” 2 Corinthians 4:13/Emphasis mine.

“Therefore it is of FAITH, that it might be by GRACE; to the end the PROMISE might be SURE to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the FAITH of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17 (as it is written, I have MADE thee a father of many nations,) before Him whom he BELIEVED, even God, who quickeneth the dead, AND CALLETH [COMMUNICATED] THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE . . . ” Romans 4:16-25/Emphasis mine.

Therefore, in thoughts or and in words, communicate to life circumstances by faith in the grace for our God in Christ Jesus, searches the hearts and thoughts of our being in communication to the heavenly, for our earthly outpour. The words of faith must dwell richly in your hearts and thoughts, for with your hearts you believe [conceived] the words of victory, triumph and such like, and by your mouth declaration [communication], the reality is made manifest by faith in the grace. [Psalms 19:4; Romans 10:8-13; Revelation 2:23; Romans 8:27].

May you be blessed in the knowing and understanding of this perspective and context in the grace.  Amen.

“The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert A highway for our God. 4 Every VALLEY shall be exalted And every MOUNTAIN and hill brought low; The CROOKED PLACES shall be made straight And the ROUGH PLACES smooth; 5 The glory of the Lord shall be revealed, And all flesh shall see it together; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken” Isaiah 40:3-5.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 For WHATSOEVER is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“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 . . . 20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter calling to remembrance SAITH unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And Jesus answering SAITH unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I SAY unto you, That WHOSOEVER shall SAY unto THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have WHATSOEVER he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:12-14, 20-24.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is MADE unto SALVATION. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever BELIEVETH on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no DIFFERENCE between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is RICH unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Romans 10:8-13.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Romans 1:16-17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 14:23).

“Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17 (as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, AND CALLETH THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE. 18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness . . .” Romans 4:16-25.
