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!

“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

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has BLESSED us with every spiritual BLESSING in the heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3 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. . .” 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 fulfil 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 its always 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 so 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 agent of CURSE and to know give up the worry syndrome knowing that being BLESSED maritally by God, you cannot be externally curse 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 CURSE; 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.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HATH BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ . . 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own RIGHT HAND in the HEAVENLY PLACES . . . ” Ephesians 1:3, 15-23.

“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.

“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: 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 like needs may be as 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 the money or and the car or and the property and such like the more, which they attached earnestly and think intently as BLESSING, 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..

“Brethren, I count not myself to have APPREHENDED: but this one thing I do, FORGETTING those things which are behind, and REACHING FORTH unto those things which are before, 14 I PRESS toward the mark for the PRIZE of the HIGH CALLING of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as be PERFECT, BE THUS MINDED: and if in any thing ye be OTHERWISE MINDED, God shall REVEAL even this unto you” Philippians 3:13-15.

WISDOM NUGGETS – TO MAKE YOUR FAITH WORK FOR YOUR GOOD

By Leave a Comment

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 remind 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 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.

“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].

“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.

“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 . . . 17  So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:8-10, 17.

“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.

As we kickstart a new year, make THANKSGIVING as a LIVING practice.

The GIVING of THANKS as a 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 and in the MIDST of both the good and through 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 wants 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).

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 THE GREATER LIFE; they do this, in order to get whatsoever they wants, then awaits 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 YOU GOD’S GRACE, WISDOM and SPEED in your Life endeavours in making POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT POSSIBLE God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“What say I then? that the IDOL is ANY THING, or that which is offered (CHANCED) in sacrifice to idols is any thing? 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 every one 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.

EXPERIENCING AND ENSURING – THE WORK AND THE EFFECT

By Leave a Comment

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 ones 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.

(that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine heart that God hath RAISED him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” Romans 10:4-10

“Every GOOD gift and every PERFECT gift is from ABOVE, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is NO VARIABLENESS, neither SHADOW of turning. 18 Of his OWN will BEGAT he us with the WORD of truth, that we should be a kind of FIRSTFRUITS of his creatures. 19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to hear, SLOW to speak, SLOW to wrath: 20 for the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:17-20.

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 DOING LIFE AND LIVING GODLY!

“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, CHOOSE you this day whom ye will SERVE; 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 the Lord” Joshua 24:15.

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.

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; 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 your year round endeavours, it’s your CHOICE to make – 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; 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, 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 that makes the World. [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 wants 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:

** 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 here, you can then turn your limitations around by the enabling grace by FAITH, on the infinite wisdom and power of our LIMITLESS GOD. [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 wants 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.

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!

“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

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has BLESSED us with every spiritual BLESSING in the heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3 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. . .” 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 fulfill 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 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 so 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 down hill, when the alternative is your enabler.

** And God’s BLESSING KEEPS you in His CHURCH or PRESENCE and enables one to go from strenght unto strenght. 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 sitted, you and I are sitted 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 agent of CURSE and to know give up the worry syndrome knowing that being BLESSED maritally by God, you cannot be externally curse 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 dogma’s 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 CURSE; 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.

“. . . 5 BLESSED is the man whose STRENGTH is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them. 6 Who passing through the VALLEY of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools. 7 They go from STRENGTH to STRENGTH, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God. . .” (Psalms 84).

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HATH BLESSED us with all spiritual blessings in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ . . 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own RIGHT HAND in the HEAVENLY PLACES . . . “ Ephesians 1:3, 15-23.

“. . . 6 and hath RAISED us up together, and made us SIT together in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ Jesus . . .” Ephesians 2:1-10.

“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.

MAXIMIZING YOUR NEW DAWN YEAR FOR POSSIBILITIES

By Leave a Comment

MAXIMIZING YOUR NEW DAWN YEAR FOR POSSIBILITIES: GIVE NO OXYGEN TO – THE ENEMY AND COHORTS – AGAINST YOUR FAITH IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“When a MAN’S WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH EVEN HIS ENEMIES to be AT PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

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

Do you want to PLEASE God in order for him to cause your enemy and cohorts to be constrained to work together for your good instead of against you? It’s only by FAITH, that we can PLEASE God. That is, by acting correspondingly on what we BELIEVE of Him, in Christ Jesus, according to His WORD. And to PREVAIL over the world and the enemy and cohorts settings against us, we need to set our life to live by FAITH, which is a consequence of God’s WORD, as I have themed for the YEAR by the WORD [Romans 8:28-30; Acts 19:20; Acts 20:32; Hebrews 11:3; 1 John 5:4-5; Romans 10:8-10, 17; Hebrews 4:12-13; 2 Timothy 3:14-17; 2 Timothy 2:15]

IT’S A NEW DAWN – JANUARY/YEAR – YOU NEED TO FLEE FROM WRATH, ANGER AND BITTERNESS – THERE ARE THE AVENUES IN USED BY THE ENEMY AND COHORTS AGAINST YOU, IN LIVING THE FULNESS OF THE POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT WITH GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to hear, SLOW to speak, SLOW to WRATH: 20 For the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:19-20.

“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 (Emphasis Mine).

There’s no tangible excuses in the Kingdom for ANY to live in ANGER, WRATH and BITTERNESS. WRATH and BITTERNESS – are the senior cousins and relatives of ANGER (I call it so); and their presence in any doesn’t help to enhance life but to endangers God’s will and purposes in one’s life. Hence, FLEE away from every of it’s appearance about you.

Therefore, to enjoy the grace and BLESSEDNESS of THE POSSIBILITIES default life of God in the fulness, one need to be very much alert and vigilant to watch out and get rid of ANGER along with WRATH and BITTERNESS before it gets hold on you and rob you of God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for your good; that’s if you wants your life to count and account for your good in everyway in Christ Jesus.

The Wisdom Nuggets here is to FLEE, that’s to RUN AWAY (KEEP AT BAY) from every of the form of appearance – the avenues of WRATH, BITTERNESS and ANGER and such like; and to start living the life of  RIGHTEOUSNESS (right standing) with God without GUILT, FEAR and SHAME, PREJUDICE, SENTIMENTS and DISSIMULATION; this is in order to ENSURE the HEAVENS is on your side and to ASSURE the POSSIBILITIES in LIVING THE EXALTED LIFE – unhindered in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

You need to RESOLVE to soar and glide over WRATH, BITTERNESS AND ANGER in your day to day life. I pray you God’s grace, wisdom and speed as you make the resolve and solemn decision. I have flagged some images. They worth intentional viewing to ascertain why you must live free from the said avenues and characterization that may be use by the ENEMY and COHORTS against you in your walk of FAITH in Christ Jesus stead.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS FOR MEDITATIONS:

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to hear, SLOW to speak, SLOW to WRATH: 20 For the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:19-20.

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost” Romans 14:17.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT your BODIES (Senses) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your REASONABLE service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING of your mind, that ye may prove what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, will of God . . . 9 Let LOVE be without DISSIMULATION (HYPOCRISY). ABHOR that which is EVIL; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly AFFECTIONED one to another with BROTHERLY LOVE; in HONOUR PREFERRING one another” Romans 12:1-2, 9-10.

“Recompense to no man EVIL for EVIL. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.  If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live PEACEABLY with all men. Dearly beloved, AVENGE not yourselves, but rather GIVE PLACE PLACE unto WRATH: for it is written, VENGEANCE is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not OVERCOME of EVIL, but OVERCOME EVIL with GOOD” Romans 12:17-21.

“If thine ENEMY be HUNGRY, GIVE him BREAD to EAT; and if he be THIRSTY, GIVE him WATER to DRINK: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22.

“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 3:8-12.
