MAKE YOUR FAITH WORK FOR YOUR GOOD: BY ABOUNDING IN FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE! 

“But let us, who are of the day, be sober, PUTTING ON THE BREASTPLATE of FAITH and LOVE; and for AN HELMET, the HOPE of salvation” 1 Thessalonians 5:8. 

May your ENDEAVOURS to abound in FAITH, HOPE and LOVE, glow, be inflame and ablaze by the WORKING of your FAITH and may in all, your LABOUR of LOVE and PATIENCE in HOPE account for your good and goodness in life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK of FAITH, and LABOUR of LOVE, and PATIENCE of HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-4. 

FAITH without WORKS is DEAD been ALONE. Faith not ACTIONED is dead indeed. Meaning, FAITH WORKING without the action of LOVE – which is the DEFAULT can’t function healthily and lacks VITALITY and the TENDER valued power with God. 

FAITH is acting correspondingly on what you believe on God’s word accordingly. So, the act of faith directly or indirectly in life and charitable causes are as authentic to and by God in His word, only through LOVE. 

It’s either your FAITH is WORKING as Scripturally enjoined by LOVE, or you are living by FATE and FAKE knowingly and or unknowingly. 

Therefore, set your priority with God right; for your FAITH to WORK the WORKS of life and grace EFFECTUALLY, for LOVE is INEVITABLE in every way. Meaning, in order to inflame and ablaze your FAITH to GLOW in grace and life, the default of LOVE must be ensured and be assured to be actively engaged; for love is the hub or fulcrum for productive cause of faith with God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, BUT FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE” Galatians 5:6 (NKJV) 

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that FAITH WITHOUT WORKS is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED BY WORKS, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 SEEST THOU HOW FAITH WROUGHT WITH HIS WORKS, AND BY WORKS WAS FAITH MADE PERFECT? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 YE SEE THEN HOW THAT BY WORKS A MAN IS JUSTIFIED, AND NOT BY FAITH ONLY. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, SO FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO” James 2:20-26.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR – BEGIN YOUR DAY WITH THANKS: MAKE THANKSGIVING – A DAILY LIVING PRACTICE! 

“Now THANKS be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh MANIFEST the SAVOUR [AROMA, FRAGRANCE] of His KNOWLEDGE by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14. 

We are ending MONTH JANUARY in a few days and kick start MONTH FEBRUARY. Won’t it be a delightful moment to end and start with an ATTITUDE of a heartfelt GRATITUDE for your ALTITUDE. This means to end January and start February with THANKSGIVING, as a DAILY LIVING practice. For a daily life doses of thanksgiving emancipate and delivers one from the position of anxiousness and worrisome to a place wherein God floods and garrisons our hearts with the peace of assurance that our expectations in PRAYERS in Christ Jesus will surely come to fruition. Amen. Giving THANKS ensures and assures our VICTORY in Christ Jesus stead. Fill up your lips and mouth with a THANKFUL and GRATEFUL heart. It liberates and stabilises your onward and upward trajectory journey in the grace.  

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

“Do NOT be ANXIOUS or WORRIED about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with THANKSGIVING, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God. 7 And the PEACE of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which TRANSCENDS all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours]” Philippians 4:6-7/Amplified. 

You can make THANKSGIVING the most gracious, graceful and awesome PATH OF LIFE to embrace and experience, with the Father God in Christ Jesus, through your daily walk in life and grace. Our Lord Jesus mouth in humanity was full of gracious words and ever thankful and grateful to Father God for the work on earth.  

“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. 

The GIVING of THANKS as a daily LIVING PRACTICE means, giving THANKS ALWAYS for ALL THINGS to God in Jesus name – for ALL God HAS DONE, He IS DOING and He WILL GET DONE in and through us even in the MIDST of both the good times and through other life difficulties and challenging times. 

“By him therefore let us OFFER the sacrifice of PRAISE to God CONTINUALLY, that is, the FRUIT OF OUR LIPS GIVING THANKS to his name” Hebrews 13:15. 

“Thank [God] in EVERYTHING [no matter what the circumstances may be, be THANKFUL and GIVE THANKS], for this is the WILL of God for you [who are] in Christ Jesus [the Revealer and Mediator of that will]” 1 Thessalonians 5:18/Amplified Classic Edition. 

More so, I want you to know that you must consciously keep up to your righteous attitude in Christ Jesus stead, even in the MIDST of all the various difficult times, painful circumstances and challenges. You mustn’t allow your circumstances to so overwhelm you to forget who you ARE in God; and that God has QUALIFIED you and MADE you to meet the REQUIREMENTS that ushered you to share in the INHERITANCE of His GRACIOUS PEOPLE in the LIGHT by Christ Jesus. And that ALL THINGS – the known and unknown circumstances and challenges – will surely WORK out for YOUR GOOD in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“GIVING THANKS to the Father, who has QUALIFIED and MADE us to share in the INHERITANCE of the SAINTS (God’s people) in the LIGHT. 13 For He has RESCUED us and has DRAWN us to Himself from the DOMINION of DARKNESS, and has TRANSFERRED us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the FORGIVENESS of our sins [and the CANCELLATION of sins’ penalty]” Colossians 1:11-14 (Amplified). 

BEGIN YOUR DAY IN THIS LIGHT, of gracious and graceful ATTITUDE of a heartfelt GRATITUDE for your ALTITUDE in Christ Jesus. 

I pray that you have an awesome day throughout the rest of the week, turning you into a brand-new month FEBRUARY as you end month JANUARY.

“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.

MAKING POSSIBILITIES POSSIBLE IN THE DAWN YEAR

MAKING POSSIBILITIES POSSIBLE IN THE DAWN YEAR: IT’S ABOUT LAYING A RIGHTEOUS FOUNDATION – NO STRANGE GODS ALLOWED! 

“Having therefore these PROMISES, dearly beloved, let us CLEANSE ourselves from ALL FILTHINESS of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God” 2 Corinthians 7:1. 

To live in EXALTATION and soar in DOMINION as an Eagle in the sphere and realm of THE GREATER LIFE with God, No STRANGE god is permitted and allowed; this is in order to make POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT OF GOD POSSIBLE, in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

For many in the CAUSE and COURSE of life challenges and circumstances will do ANYTHING knowingly and unknowingly to subvert and twist the path of THE GREATER LIFE; they do this, in order to get whatsoever they want, then await the God of THE GREATER LIFE who is THE LIMITLESS GOD, to bless their STRANGE god ACQUISITIONS outside Him. 

You need to KNOW today that an IDOL or STRANGE god is ANYTHING that replaces the CAUSE and COURSE of God in Christ Jesus, in the PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for LIFE AFFAIRS: Be it in – Relationships/Marriage; Friends/Family Matters, Job/Career, Education/Skill Training, Leadership/Governance, Business/Enterprises, Gospel Ministry/Ministerial Church, Politics/Political Adherence, Finance/Economic Transactions and in many more such like. 

If you intend and desire to SUCCEED, TRIUMPH and THRIVE with God, for a colourful, meaningful and fulfilling life, DON’T MAKE or KEEP a STRANGE god or idol with you. Set a RIGHTEOUS foundation with God. For God’s FOUNDATION assures, ensures and enriches ALL who do not have a STRANGE god and idol in God’s places in their life. That’s the HOW to live in EXALTATION and soar in DOMINION of THE GREATER LIFE of THE LIMITLESS GOD, in Christ Jesus. Amen. 

I PRAY FOR GOD’S GRACE, WISDOM, and SPEED in your Life endeavours in making POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT POSSIBLE in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“What say I then? that the IDOL is ANY THING, or that which is offered (CHANCED) in sacrifice to idols is anything? 20 But I say that the things which the Gentiles SACRIFICE, they SACRIFICE to DEVILS, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have FELLOWSHIP with devils. 21 Ye cannot DRINK the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: Ye cannot be PARTAKERS of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils. 22. Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?” 1 Corinthians 10:19-22 (Emphasis Mine). 

“. . . 11 As an EAGLE stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: 12 so the Lord alone did lead him, and THERE WAS NO STRANGE GOD WITH HIM. 13 He made him RIDE on the HIGH PLACES of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock; 14 butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape” Deuteronomy 32:7-14 (Emphasis Mine). 

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation: but sin (STRANGE god) is a reproach to any people” Proverbs 14:34 (Emphasis Mine). 

“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is he that is in you, than he that is in the WORLD. 5. They ARE of the world: therefore, speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6 (Emphasis Mine). 

“If the FOUNDATIONS be destroyed, what can the RIGHTEOUS do?” (Psalms 11:3). 

“Nevertheless, the FOUNDATION of God standeth SURE, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let everyone that nameth the name of Christ DEPART from INIQUITY (STRANGE god). 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work” 2 Timothy 2:19-21 (Emphasis Mine). 

“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.

YOU ARE CROWNED AND BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING 

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE CROWNED AND BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING: DON’T LIVE LESS IN CHRIST JESUS IN THE GRACE! 

“You CROWN THE YEAR WITH YOUR GOODNESS, AND YOUR PATHS DRIP WITH ABUNDANCE. 12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, And the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain; They shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13. NKJV 

To being BLESSED in God’s BLESSEDNESS, is to be EMPOWERED by God’s grace to SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, THRIVE, BECOME and such like the MORE, in every venture and endeavour of doing life and living godly, ensuring FULFILMENT through a gracious PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. 

I want you to know full well, that in Christ Jesus, you are CROWNED AND BLESSED of God to be a BLESSING. And unlike the OLD TESTAMENT BLESSEDNESS that was woven UNDER an “IF” CONDITIONALITY as by the holy writ of Deuteronomy 28:1-15 and in other same like Scriptures of the OLD TESTAMENT, the NEW CREATION BLESSEDNESS of the NEW TESTAMENT in Christ Jesus, is not based on CONDITIONALITY “IF”, but on Christ Jesus stead IN US, as per Ephesians 1:3 and such like Scriptures of the epistles. 

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HATH BLESSED us with all spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3. 

“And it shall come to pass, IF THOU SHALT HEARKEN diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and ALL THESE BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF THOU SHALT hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God . . . 9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, IF THOU shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in his ways. 13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; IF THAT THOU hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them . . .” Deuteronomy 28:1-15. 

Herein are some of the reasons but not limited for your BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, as the NEW CREATION of the NEW TESTAMENT: 

  • It is a DONE promised blessing of God in our redemption in Christ Jesus. Hence, the New Creation Blessing is UNCONDITIONAL. Unlike the Old Testament wherein you are CONDITIONED to fulfil certain obligations to attain it or have it. Hence let no man ask you to pay some charges or fullfil some obligations before you can ascertain God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 
  • It’s the blessing that’s free of fear, sorrow, pain, envy, jealousy and anguish, but always enriching, assuring and ensuring. So, there’s no reason to be afraid of God’s BLESSEDNESS. And nobody should then threaten you of God’s promises to you beside them. Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-4; 3 John 2. 
  • God’s BLESSING is not a FEELING; it is in the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING – that’s the only way you can BE a BLESSING too. And it’s always an INTENTIONAL choice plan to have us BLESSED in His BLESSEDNESS.  
  • God’s BLESSING is not a car, property, family, money, empire of business and more; but the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS of God that MAKES and ENABLES to become a reality, the things you need like – car, house, business, money, family health, and more; the BLESSED ENABLER makes the things you need to come into reality WITHOUT SWEAT, EFFORTLESS, GRACEFULLY and GRACIOUSLY. It is such to note that you are not limited by the things you need or have, but you are GOVERNED by the enabler. The BLESSED enabler, MAKES you ABOVE ONLY otherwise you will go down south or downhill, when the alternative is your enabler. 
  • And God’s BLESSING KEEPS you in His CHURCH or PRESENCE and enables one to go from strength unto strength. Meaning, God’s BLESSING doesn’t take you away from His presence or Church as we’ve seen many BACKSLIDE from FAITH for having some little tokens of money or car or property and more which they considered to be a blessing, which unfortunately for them are the results of the BLESSEDNESS and not the BLESSEDNESS. 
  • God’s BLESSING for us in His BLESSEDNESS does not fade, deteriorate or go valueless and worthless and in any such like degradation, hence it’s not treasured as Car, landed property, house, material and such like that wear out with time. So, when you have any material items as Car, house and such like for example, it is the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS called the BLESSEDNESS of God that is the Blessing and not the car. God’s BLESSEDNESS upon you provides you the car as a tool to achieve purpose on earth. And because God’s BLESSEDNESS is in the HEAVENLY PLACES, meaning spiritual endowment, thieves, robbers and such like enemy and cohorts, can’t break-in because there are kept in the heavenly places where Christ Jesus is seated, you and I are seated at the safe and secured right hand of God. Ephesians 1:3, 20; Ephesians 2:6; Matthew 6:19-21. 
  • Do you know that you are BLESSED? If yes, then stop running around as one without KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. I am Blessed – I know It. You are Blessed – I know it quite well too. 
  • And much more importantly, your marriage is BLESSED and not a CURSE. You can now stop this unfavourable notion of holding and looking at your spouse as an agent of CURSE and know to give up the worry syndrome, knowing that being BLESSED maritally by God, you cannot be externally cursed to make you live in fear. Hence you need to stop all those notions that someone else is there cursing your marriage and such is more supreme than the BLESSEDNESS of God upon your marriage. Always know that you will become what you believe – either God’s BLESSEDNESS or Man-Made make belief or your make up dogmas to suit sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. 1 Peter 3:8-12. 

Having now known some of the reasons above, therefore, go on in grace, speaking FORTH who you ARE as being BLESSED of God and not CURSED; and going forth in such might in Christ Jesus stead to do the needful in PRINCIPLE and DILIGENCE, as God begins to actualise and unveil into reality your BLESSEDNESS in Him in Christ Jesus. 

THEREFORE, IN POSSIBILITIES WITH – THE TIMELESS GOD – KNOW FULL WELL THAT YOU ARE CROWN BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING – DON’T LIVE LESS IN CHRIST JESUS. AMEN. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Lay not up for yourselves TREASURES upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where THIEVES break through and steal: 20 but lay up for yourselves TREASURES in HEAVEN, where NEITHER moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where THIEVES do not break through nor steal: 21 for where your TREASURE is, there will your heart be also” Matthew 6:19-21. 

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES RICH, and he ADDS NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22. 

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a GREAT nation, and I will BLESS thee, and MAKE thy name GREAT; and thou shalt be a BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3. 

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore THAT THEY WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED BEFORE THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they WHICH BE OF FAITH ARE BLESSED with faithful Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE THE PROMISE of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye ARE ALL THE CHILDREN of God BY FAITH in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is NEITHER Jew nor Greek, there is NEITHER bond nor free, there is NEITHER male nor female: FOR YE ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST JESUS. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s SEED, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. 

“Thou CROWNEST THE YEAR with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness. 12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13. 

“And it shall come to pass, IF THOU SHALT HEARKEN diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and ALL THESE BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF THOU SHALT hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. 3 BLESSED shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. 4 BLESSED shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 5 BLESSED shall be thy basket and thy store. 6 BLESSED shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out . . .15 But it shall come to pass, IF THOU WILT not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee” Deuteronomy 28:1-15. 

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have OBTAINED like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us ALL THINGS that pertain unto LIFE and GODLINESS, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are GIVEN unto us EXCEEDING GREAT and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:1-4. 

“. . . 8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; KNOWING THAT YE ARE THEREUNTO CALLED, THAT YE SHOULD INHERIT A BLESSING. 10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: DARE YOUR FEAR 

By Leave a Comment

GOD IS FAITHFUL: DARE YOUR FEAR – TO BECOME THE YOU – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD BY FAITH! 

“For God hath not GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR [INTIMIDATION, COWARDICE, INFERIORITY COMPLEX, FEAR PHOBIAS]; but of POWER, and of LOVE, and of a SOUND MIND” 2 Timothy 1:7/Emphasis Mine. 

Start your daily DAWN Day on a very high note on God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. This is possible when you resolve to daily and now – DARE your FEAR with the FAITH of the grace of God that LIVES within you. This is the only way to BECOME or BE what God in Christ Jesus has made you BE in REDEMPTION, especially in all the challenging times and circumstances that’s before you now or may show up later. 

“Forasmuch then as the children are PARTAKERS of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise TOOK PART of the SAME; that through death he might DESTROY him that had the POWER of death, that is, the devil; 15 And DELIVER them who through FEAR of death were all their LIFETIME SUBJECT to BONDAGE” Hebrews 2:14-15. 

You must arise in grace and DARE your FEAR with FAITH in God, in God’s WORD, in order to enhance your Now – today and set your tomorrow ready for an Onward and Upward trajectory ALTITUDE. Taking your REDEMPTION stand by God in Christ Jesus stead are for these simple REASONS: 

  •  FEAR is the enemy Policing Officer – that is, the policing vehicle of darkness at war to captivate your FAITH of becoming whom God has MADE you to be in Him in Christ Jesus. Amen. 

 

  •  FEAR has the enabling tacts of robbing one of the God’s given potentials and the purpose of accomplishment and fulfilment in all phases of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. 

 

  •  FEAR creates insecurity, it captivates, robs one of self-esteem, self-defense, self-Worth and dignity. 

 

  •  FEAR has the capacity to destroy life vision and mission. 

 

  •  FEAR can cripple and paralyse you, rob you of hope, faith and love in life and godly living. For it intimidates and makes you inferior or with inferiority complex and filled up with fear phobias. 

 

  •  FEAR can eventually lead to the death of anything be it human or projects, relationships, business and such like. 

 

  •  FEAR is the enemy the devil and cohorts, primary and only major means mode of operandi in their various acts and operations; and you must steadfastly contend and resist them in faith in Christ Jesus stead uncompromisingly. 

GOD IS FAITHFUL – DARE YOUR FEAR TO BECOME THE YOU BY GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD BY FAITH. AMEN. 

The only way to police fear and keep fear at bay, that is, where it belongs is to DARE it in steadfast FAITH. For FAITH is the VICTORY to overcome the ENEMY and COHORTS in the world sphere where they choose to operate to cast the FEAR spells. And FAITH is acting correspondingly on whom and what you POSSIBLY believe on the WORD of God in God. When you POSSIBLY believe God can make you better and great; and you believe in the cause and course of God’s WORD to make you better and great, FEAR disappears because FAITH has come to take its place in you and to displace the fear phobia. Know for sure that anytime and when FAITH shows up, FEAR is paralysed and crippled from functioning. 

“For whatever is born of God OVERCOMES the WORLD. And this is THE VICTORY that has OVERCOME the WORLD — our FAITH. 5 Who is he who OVERCOMES the world, but he who BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5/NKJV. 

For FAITH is the VICTORY to TRIUMPH your world of daily fear phobia for SECURITY and SELF-WORTH of who you are in God by Christ Jesus; and of what to – eat, drink and put on, and such like – in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. And God has dealt to everyone THE MEASURE of FAITH and THE MEASURE of His enabling GRACE to live life in full – triumphantly and wholly in every way. 

“For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath DEALT to EVERY man THE MEASURE of FAITH” Romans 12:3. 

“But unto every one of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7. 

There are over 365 Scriptures of FEAR NOT in the Holy Writ – The BIBLE; and to live in VICTORY over FEAR; thus indicate a more than enough for each day. Therefore, FEAR NOT – that’s the Living and Soaring spirit of the Eagle to rule and reign in DOMINION and EXALTATION in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. 

Jesus had made you free from fear by BECOMING human first, that you by His redemption, might be free, and free indeed from the spirit and bondage of fear in every way and everywhere. DARE NOW TO BE what you are in God in Christ Jesus stead, according to the scriptural writ concerning you in Him. And I therefore say again: 

DARE your FEAR with the FAITH of the grace of God that LIVES within you. This is the only way to BECOME or BE what God in Christ Jesus has made you BE in REDEMPTION.

“Love has been PERFECTED among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no FEAR in love; BUT PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR, because FEAR involves TORMENT. But he who FEARS has not been MADE perfect in love” 1 John 4:14-15.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: LIVING BLESSED

GOD IS FAITHFUL: LIVING BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING – IS PART OF OUR HIGHER CALLING! 

“Now the Lord had SAID unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a great nation, AND I WILL BLESS THEE, AND MAKE THY NAME GREAT; AND THOU SHALT BE A BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that BLESS thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3. 

To be BLESSED and living a BLESSED life in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead, is to be EMPOWERED in God’s grace to SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, THRIVE, BECOME and such like; and more so, it’s to live MEANINGFULLY and PURPOSEFULLY in every venture and endeavour of life with FULFILMENT, through a gracious and graceful plan, purpose and pursuit in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HATH BLESSED us with all spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3. 

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES RICH, and he ADDS NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22. 

Be assured for certainty, that is – knowingly and unknowingly – that you are – BLESSED TO BE A BLESSING, and it’s for the following but not limited REASONS in being BLESSED in the BLESSEDNESS of God are you in these contextual regards: 

  •  It is a DONE promised blessing of God in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. 

 

  •  It’s THE BLESSING that’s always enriching, assuring and ensuring – that’s free of fear, sorrow, pain, envy, jealousy, anguish and such like. 

 

  •  The God’s BLESSING is not in a FEELING; it is in the PERCEIVING – that’s of the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING – and that’s the only way you can BE a BLESSING too. 

 

  •  The God’s BLESSING is not the car, property, money, empire of business and such like more; The God’s BLESSING is the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS of God that MAKES the things you need possible and to come into reality – effortlessly, gracefully and graciously. Such needs may be like the car, house, business, money, health, and such like more. 

 

  •  And the God’s BLESSING keeps one in His Church or Presence; and it enables one to go from strength unto strength. Meaning, God’s BLESSING doesn’t take you away from His presence or His Church as we’ve seen many BACKSLIDE from FAITH, just for having some little tokens of money, cars, properties and such like the more, and earnestly consider them BLESSINGS, which is rather unfortunate. 

Therefore, I say as emboldened in Christ Jesus stead, that, I am BLESSED of God – and I know It; I know also that you are BLESSED of God, in Christ Jesus stead, and I hope you know it quite well too as I do now and always in consciousness. 

Finally, I ask and say – DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD? If yes, then stop running around as one without KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. Live and walk in wisdom to ENSURE this ASSURED enabling of God, in Christ Jesus stead becomes tangible and in reality, in your path of doing life and living godly. Amen…

WISDOM NUGGETS – TO MAKE YOUR FAITH WORK FOR YOUR GOOD

WISDOM NUGGETS – TO MAKE YOUR FAITH WORK FOR YOUR GOOD: IT’S A PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT SOMEONE’S ELSE’S!

“ENDEAVOURING to KEEP the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace” Ephesians 4:3.

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

I herein reminds you to make your FAITH work out for your good and goodness, for it’s a personal responsibility and not someone’s else’s. You need to have a pragmatic resolved and to intentionally set out your personal scriptural effort, with the assurance to ensure that you make the necessary endeavours, to inflame and ablaze your faith, in order to make you glow in life and grace irrespective. For your faith will definitely define your today and tomorrow – knowingly and unknowingly.

FAITH without WORKS is DEAD been ALONE. Faith not ACTIONED is dead indeed.  Meaning FAITH WORKING without the action of LOVE – which is the DEFAULT can’t function healthily and lacks VITALITY and the TENDER valued power with God.

FAITH is acting correspondingly on what you believe on God’s word accordingly. So the act of faith directly or indirectly in life and charitable causes are as authentic to and by God in His word, only through LOVE.

It’s either your FAITH is WORKING as Scripturally enjoined by LOVE, or you are living by FATE and FAKE knowingly and or unknowingly.

Therefore, set your priority with God right; for your FAITH to WORK the WORKS of life and grace EFFECTUALLY, LOVE is INEVITABLE in everyway. Meaning, in order to inflame and ablaze your FAITH to GLOW in grace and life, the default of LOVE must be ensured to be actively engaged.

“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, BUT FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE” Galatians 5:6 (NKJV)

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that FAITH WITHOUT WORKS is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED BY WORKS, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 SEEST THOU HOW FAITH WROUGHT WITH HIS WORKS, AND BY WORKS WAS FAITH MADE PERFECT? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 YE SEE THEN HOW THAT BY WORKS A MAN IS JUSTIFIED, AND NOT BY FAITH ONLY. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, SO FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO” James 2:20-26.

“Now FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders OBTAINED A GOOD REPORT. 3 Through FAITH we UNDERSTAND that THE WORLDS WERE FRAMED BY THE WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE Him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.

“For I say, through THE GRACE GIVEN unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath DEALT to every man THE MEASURE OF FAITH” Romans 12:3.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR – BEGIN YOUR DAY WITH THANKS: MAKE THANKSGIVING – A DAILY LIVING PRACTICE!

“Now THANKS be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh MANIFEST the savour of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.

We are ending MONTH JANUARY in few days and to kick start MONTH FEBRUARY. Won’t it be a delightful moment to end and start with an ATTITUDE of a heartfelt GRATITUDE for your ALTITUDE. This means to end January and start February with THANKSGIVING a DAILY LIVING practice. A daily life doses of thanksgiving emancipates and delivers one from the position of anxiousness and worrisome to a place wherein God floods and garrisons our hearts with the peace of assurance that our expectations in PRAYERS in Christ Jesus will surely come to fruition. Amen. Giving THANKS ensures and assures our VICTORY in Christ Jesus stead. Fill up your lips and mouth with a THANKFUL and GRATEFUL heart. It liberates and stabilises your onward and upward trajectory journey in the grace.

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

“Do NOT be ANXIOUS or WORRIED about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with THANKSGIVING, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God. 7 And the PEACE of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which TRANSCENDS all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours]” Philippians 4:6-7/Amplified.

You can make it the most gracious, graceful and awesome PATH OF LIFE to embrace and experience, with the Father God in Christ Jesus, through your daily walk in life and grace. Our Lord Jesus mouth in humanity was full of gracious words and ever thankful and grateful to Father God for the work on earth.

“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 4:22.

The GIVING of THANKS as a daily LIVING PRACTICE means, giving THANKS ALWAYS for ALL THINGS to God in Jesus name – for ALL God HAS DONE, He IS DOING and He WILL GET DONE in and through us even in the MIDST of both the good times and through other life difficulties and challenging times.

“By him therefore let us OFFER the sacrifice of PRAISE to God CONTINUALLY, that is, the FRUIT OF OUR LIPS GIVING THANKS to his name” Hebrews 13:15.

More so, I want you to know that you must consciously keep up to your righteous attitude in Christ Jesus stead, even in the MIDST of all the various difficult times, painful circumstances and challenges. You mustn’t allow your circumstances to so overwhelmed you to forget who you ARE in God; and that God has QUALIFIED you and MADE you to meet the REQUIREMENTS that ushered you to share in the INHERITANCE of His GRACIOUS PEOPLE in the LIGHT by Christ Jesus. And that ALL THINGS – the known and unknown circumstances and challenges – will surely WORK out for YOUR GOOD in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“GIVING THANKS to the Father, who has QUALIFIED and MADE us to share in the INHERITANCE of the SAINTS (God’s people) in the LIGHT. 13 For He has RESCUED us and has DRAWN us to Himself from the DOMINION of DARKNESS, and has TRANSFERRED us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the FORGIVENESS of our sins [and the CANCELLATION of sins’ penalty]” Colossians 1:11-14 (Amplified).

BEGIN YOUR DAY IN THIS LIGHT, of gracious and graceful ATTITUDE of a heartfelt GRATITUDE for your ALTITUDE in Christ Jesus.

I pray you have an awesome day through the rest of the week, turning you into a brand new month FEBRUARY as you end month JANUARY.

EXPERIENCING AND ENSURING – THE WORK AND THE EFFECT – OF GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS IN CHRIST JESUS: THESE ARE PEACE – QUIETNESS – ASSURANCE – AND JOY – IN THE HOLY GHOST!

“For the KINGDOM of God is not MEAT 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 14:17-18.

The SYNERGY to STAND – being ASSURED – and ENSURED – of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus – is by EXPERIENCING and ENSURING the WORK and the EFFECT of – God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, of a truth I PERCEIVE that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that feareth him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35.

There’s nothing as beautiful, lively, lovely, gracious and graceful to know that every step of one’s journey, there’s God’s ENSURING, ENRICHING and ASSURING INSURANCE – ALL the WAY. This is the graciousness and gracefulness of LIVING IN THE POSSIBILITIES and TRIUMPHANT DEFAULT in the CONSCIOUSNESS of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. For RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS in every way in the kingdom. You can boldly lift up your hands in WORSHIP and FELLOWSHIP unashamed, unafraid, without intimidation and guilt, and genuinely free within because YOU ARE WHAT YOU ARE by God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus and not by yourself and or making. Amen.

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation: but SIN is a reproach (Setback, Mayhem, Shame) to any people” Proverbs 14:34 (Emphasis Mine).

And you need to know, understand and  be aware that there’re the WORK of RIGHTEOUSNESS and the EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS in one’s life as a consequence of what Christ Jesus had done in our redemption.  And it’s in our living in the CONSCIOUSNESS of the WORK and EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS that enables one’s path to be ORDERED, ENHANCED and have the ASSURED and INSURED POSSIBILITIES and TRIUMPH in all the way through the year with God.

“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 5:21.

So, get on the board and follow the PATH that enables you to DO and WORK the RIGHTEOUS ACTS so that you can experience and ensure the fullness of God who is no respecter of persons as men would do. For YOU ARE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus. Amen. You Must Take A STAND Of Being ENSURED AND ASSURED Of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS In CHRIST JESUS.

“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.

I pray that as you stand on this GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL act of RIGHTEOUSNESS, the Lord God will PERFECT, MATURE, ESTABLISH and SETTLE you in the EXALTED place in Christ Jesus precious name, Amen.

IT’S A DAWN YEAR – WITH A CHOICE TO MAKE

By Leave a Comment

IT’S A DAWN YEAR – WITH A CHOICE TO MAKE: TO EITHER THRIVE IN GRACE AND FAITH OR TO LIVE AS A SURVIVAL – IN THE ESSENCE OF DOING LIFE AND LIVING GODLY!

“And if it seem EVIL unto you to SERVE [ACCEPTABLY, UNRESERVEDLY] the Lord, CHOOSE you this day whom ye will SERVE [ACCEPTABLY, UNRESERVEDLY]; whether the gods which your fathers SERVED that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for ME and MY HOUSE, we will SERVE [ACCEPTABLY, UNRESERVEDLY] the Lord” Joshua 24:15/Emphasis Mine.

Know for sure it’s a dawn year and the choices you make will make and define you. And you need to know that you are born of God to THRIVE in grace and faith in Christ Jesus; and you are not born of God to SURVIVE in doing life and living godly too. And you ARE, the determination and custodian of your happiness, peace and the atmosphere you want to see and experience, not some else, except you give them the permission to make your choices on your behalf – of which, it’s still your choice knowingly and or unknowingly.

I therefore make bold to say that no matter what your SITUATION and CIRCUMSTANCES in life is today, you are not BORN of God to be a SURVIVAL in Christ Jesus; but YOU are BORN of God to THRIVE – to be soaring and gliding in VICTORY, TRIUMPH, DOMINION, A MORE THAN CONQUEROR and OVERCOMER by THE GREATER LIFE in Christ Jesus that is in you in Him [1 John 4:4-6; Philemon 1:6; 1 John 5:3-5; Romans 8:37; 2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15; Exodus 15:1-2, 2021; 1 Corinthians 15:57].

And in all the year count and round endeavours, it’s your CHOICE to make – to determine to THRIVE or to SURVIVE; and it’s your TIME to step up in GRACE and FAITH to BECOME who you are in God in Christ Jesus stead [Philemon 1:6]; and it’s yours too, to take on WHATSOEVER, in order to BECOME what you are BORN of God and QUALIFIED of God in Christ Jesus stead to be [Mark 11:24], and as per this wise context:

  * It’s your time to ARISE on the WIND – The Holy Spirit – to take to flight as the Eagle in turning your life around as God did at the beginning of time; this is when He step up to CREATE the atmosphere He wants to see, be satisfied and fulfilled, from the Earth that was FORMLESS and VOID to make it the World to be admired, colourful, beautiful and such like. [Genesis 1:1-2:1-25; Psalms 24:1; Acts 17:24-29].

  * It’s time to SET your life to THRIVE, to have a colourful world, create the atmosphere you want to see, enjoy and to LIVE FULFILLED.

  * It’s your YEAR of living in the POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT – which is the greater, thriving, colourful, meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling life.

There are QUESTIONS to think through and ANSWER here – which are but not limited:

** Are you struggling to Pray?

** Are you struggling to Read and Study God’s WORD?

** Is your life being without form and void?

** Are you just SURVIVING instead of THRIVING in grace?

** What do you think is the reason for your stalemate and pain?

In answering the above-mentioned questions and such like that are known by you but are not written or mentioned here – you can then turn your limitations around by the enabling grace of God by FAITH, and by the infinite wisdom and power of our LIMITLESS GOD overall. [Romans 5:1-2; Romans 12:3; Ephesians 4:7, 1 Corinthians 2:1-5].

I hereby announce to you that there’s HOPE in life today and the dawn year; and there’s a MIRACLE of change for you, but its your CHOICE to step up in FAITH in order to DO LIFE and LIVE GODLY in God’s way in Christ Jesus stead. I want you to know that when God SAW that the situation and circumstances about Him on earth was WITHOUT FORM and VOID, He determine to make the difference that suits His intent. That is, to CREATE the ATMOSPHERE He wants to see and enjoy and be fulfilled to behold. He didn’t sit back; this is what and how He did to make His desire become tangible and a reality:

* He did not choose to SURVIVE it or ADAPT to it or compromise with it.

* He took RECOGNITION of the presence of our HELPER, the creative Holy Spirit – [Genesis 1:2; Jude 1:20; Romans 8:26-27 (Amplified); John 4:20-24; (Genesis 2:7; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Philippians 3:3)].

* He chose to THRIVE, hence made a conscious, gracious, graceful and an intentional declaration to create the atmosphere He loves and wants to see irrespective of the STATEMENTS and SITUATIONS about Him. [Genesis 1:1-31; Luke 4:22; Hebrews 10:23; Revelation 12:11; Mark 11:12-14, 20-24; Romans 10:8-10].

* He spoke graciously and gracefully to CAUSE to BECOME what He wants and needed to BECOME, and it was good and very good indeed. [Genesis 1:1-31; Proverbs 12:14; 15:23; 18:20-21; 16:24; Romans 10:9-10; Hebrews 10:23; Like 4:22].

Today! When you chose to PRAY and make DECLARATION and ACT accordingly by FAITH on God’s word, by the LEADING of the Holy Spirit, your CHANGE will assuredly come in Jesus’ name. Amen. Then you take a stand to cease to SURVIVE and to LIVE above what your circumstances wants you to see; while you resolve and begin to LIVE and THRIVE by what you DESIRED of God to see by the eyes of THE POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT – THE GREATER LIFE within you – [Mark 9:23; Matthew 19:26; 1 John 4:4-6; Hebrews 10:23; Romans 10:8-13]. This is the how to ensure the start up to stop the life of STRUGGLING or SURVIVING through the PRAYER WALK of grace and faith; and to turn the FORMLESS and VOID circumstantial WORLDS into a THRIVING sphere that will be BLOSSOMING, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL and FULFILLING.

DO CHOSE WISELY TO MAKE A NEW START TODAY – YOUR YEAR DEFINITION IS IN YOUR CHOICE.

I pray that by God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS you will live and soar in POSSIBILITIES, DOMINION and EXALTATION as the Eagle with spirit of THE GREATER LIFE – THE PREVAILING WORD –  in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“In the beginning God CREATED the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was WITHOUT FORM, and VOID; and DARKNESS was UPON the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God SAID, Let THERE be light: and THERE was light. 4 And God SAW the light, that it was GOOD. . . “ Genesis 1:1-31.

“YE ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME THEM: because GREATER is he that is in you, than he that is in the WORLD. 5 They ARE of the world: therefore SPEAK they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 WE ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore CHOOSE LIFE, that both THOU and thy SEED may live:  20 that thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them” Deuteronomy 30:19-20.

“Giving thanks to the Father who has QUALIFIED us to be PARTAKERS of the INHERITANCE of the saints in the light. 13 He has DELIVERED us from the power of darkness and CONVEYED (TRANSLATED) us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins” Colossians 1:12-14 (Emphasis Mine).

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to the WORD of his grace, which is able to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.
