The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do NOURISH And CHERISH Your SPOUSE And FAMILY!

There’s nothing as awesome as MARRYING THE PERSON YOU LOVE and LOVING THE PERSON THAT YOU MARRIED. It makes a great deal to the making of a WHOLESOME family and home. As such, it’s imperative that we LOVE, NATURE, NUTURE, NOURISH and CHERISH our SPOUSE, and the FAMILY we’ve made out of such unique relationship.

I pray our Father God gives you the wisdom to see reasons in the grace with speed to ensure love as your hallmark and bedrock assurance in doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Be ye therefore FOLLOWERS of God, as dear children;  2 and WALK IN LOVE, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a SWEETSMELLING SAVOUR. . .21 SUBMITTING yourselves one to another in the FEAR (REVERENCE) of God. 22 Wives, SUBMIT yourselves unto your own husbands, AS unto the Lord.  23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.  24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their OWN husbands in EVERY THING.  25 Husbands, LOVE your wives, EVEN AS CHRIST ALSO LOVED THE CHURCH, AND GAVE HIMSELF FOR IT;  26 that he might SANCTIFY and CLEANSE it with the washing of water by the word,  27 that he might PRESENT it to himself a GLORIOUS church, not having SPOT, or WRINKLE, or ANY SUCH THING; but that it should be HOLY and WITHOUT BLEMISH.  28 So ought men to LOVE their wives as their own bodies. He that LOVETH his wife LOVETH himself.  29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but NOURISHETH and CHERISHETH it, even as the Lord the church:  30 for we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.  31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.  32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.  33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband” Ephesians 5:1-2, 21-33

“And Isaac BROUGHT her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he LOVED her: and Isaac was COMFORTED after his mother’s death” Genesis 24:67.

“Wives, SUBMIT yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. 19 Husbands, LOVE your wives, and be not BITTER against them. 20 Children, OBEY your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. 21 Fathers, PROVOKE not your children to ANGER, lest they be DISCOURAGED” Colossians 3:18-21.

“Children, OBEY your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 HONOUR thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) 3 that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. 4 And, ye fathers, PROVOKE not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the NURTURE and ADMONITION of the Lord” Ephesians 6:1-4.

“That they may TEACH the young women to be SOBER, to LOVE their husbands, to LOVE their children, 5 to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. 6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. 7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, 8 sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you” Titus 2:4-8.

“RID me, and DELIVER me from the hand of STRANGE children, whose MOUTH speaketh vanity, and their RIGHT HAND is a right hand of FALSEHOOD: 12 that our SONS may be as plants GROWN up in their YOUTH; that our DAUGHTERS may be as corner stones, POLISHED after the SIMILITUDE of a PALACE: 13 that our GARNERS may be full, AFFORDING all MANNER of store: that our SHEEP may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets: 14 that our OXEN may be strong to labour; that there be NO BREAKING in, nor GOING out; that there be no COMPLAINING in our streets. 15 HAPPY is that people, that is in such a case: yea, HAPPY is that people, whose God is the Lord” Psalms 144:12-15.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do TREASURE In LOVE – The WORD Of God!

“O how LOVE I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. 98 Thou through thy COMMANDMENTS [WORDS] hast MADE ME WISER than mine enemies: for they are ever with me” Psalms 119:97-98/Emphasis Mine.

When God’s word in love, becomes a command and not just an advice to determine and define your life, you fear and feel no evil in doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. [Ecclesiastes 8:5; 1 John 4:17-18]. Love is the antidote to silence the presence of fear by the word. For where Love is operational, faith is at work. [Galatians 5:6, 13; 2 Timothy 1:7].

I welcome you to treasure God’s word in love. [1 John 5:3]. It will give you the faith leverage to overcome and triumph, and have dominion, to have victory and be more than conqueror, over the world system, and be assured with God’s enabling to thrive in life and grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [1 John 5:4-5, 1 Corinthians 15:57; 2 Corinthians 2:14; Romans 8:35-39].

Be Blessed in the word by love.

“Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who LOVES Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him.  2 By this we know that we LOVE the children of God, when we LOVE God and KEEP His COMMANDMENTS [WORDS].  3 For this is the LOVE of God, that we keep His COMMANDMENTS [WORDS]. And His COMMANDMENTS [WORDS] are not BURDENSOME [GRIEVOUS, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER, ENSLAVING]” 1 John 5:1-3/Emphasis Mine.

“Neither have I gone back from the COMMANDMENT [WORD] of his lips; I have ESTEEMED THE WORDS of his mouth MORE THAN MY NECESSARY FOOD” Job 23:12/Emphasis Mine.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do LOVE Your NEIGHBOUR And The STRANGER!

“For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?” Matthew 5:46-47.

We live in a moment in history, wherein lots of people are so muchly engaged and entangled with the spirit of entitlement at another person cost, there making it impossible for some to share love because they are expecting to be the collector of love and not the giver of love as Scripturally enjoined:

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again” Luke 6:38.

More so, because of the current challenges of the unstable state of the world, community, neighbourhoods, family and such like, especially in terms of the economic atmosphere, some people are so desperate and in such a haste that the simple acts of kindness in relationship and in relating with others is diminishing. Such was the depraved of humane nature from the zealous Church folks – the Priest [Pastor] and the Levites [Choir Leader], unlike the non Church folk – the Samaritan as in Luke 10:25-37. They were  so carried away with their zealousness that they forgot the act of kindness of life resources [time, finance (cash/kind), etc] to use to help others in critical needs no matter how little [small].

“I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to SUPPORT THE WEAK, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is MORE BLESSED to GIVE than to RECEIVE” Acts 20:35.

 And many have become so commited to matter of – things and activities and programs and such like – than having a humane commitment to their fellow human beings in times of difficulties. When someone is in trouble, people are more interested in taking photo-up to create content for others to applaud and make jest over the person rather than helping out to solve the person in trouble where need be, especially when it’s within their capacity to help in that duration of time. You can see series of unwarranted and appalling images and photos in social media depicting people of all sorts that shouldn’t be taken and more so displayed but are out there – sometimes you wonder while the person taking the photo couldn’t help that child from a wicked maid or parents or leader or whoever than spending time to take photos to the point of death of such an individual while help could have been possible.

A genuine Father hearts best is in loving one’s neighbours as Christ admonished the enquirer Lawyer about who his neighbour truly was and is, in order to do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus stead Amen. [Luke 10:25-37].

If we truly wants to get into the father’s hearts best, we should endeavour to be humane in the midst of our busy schedule to love our neighbours as we do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to INHERIT eternal life?  26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how READEST thou?  27 And he answering said, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself.  28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, AND WHO IS MY NEIGHBOUR?  30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.  31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.  32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.  33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,  34 and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.  35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.  36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was NEIGHBOUR unto him that fell among the thieves?  37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, GO, and DO thou likewise” Luke 10:25-37.

“And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? 29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 and thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the FIRST commandment. 31 And the SECOND is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself. THERE IS NONE OTHER COMMANDMENT GREATER THAN THESE” Mark 12:28-31.

“But the STRANGER that DWELLETH with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt LOVE him as thyself; for ye were STRANGERS in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God” Leviticus 19:34.

RESENTMENT – The Beautiful And Colourful Lesson Learnt From My Wife

By Leave a Comment

RESENTMENT – The Beautiful And Colourful Lesson Learnt From My Wife: To LOVE And PRAY For Those Whom – You Tend To RESENT And Who RESENT You!

“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at peace with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“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.

RESENTMENT is BITTER INDIGNATION at having been TREATED UNFAIRLY and BADLY; and it’s a mixture of DISAPPOINTMENT, ANGER, WRATH and FEAR. It comprises the three basic emotions of DISGUST, SADNESS and SURPRISE – the PERCEPTION of INJUSTICE.

If you must live COLOURFUL, FREE, PEACEFUL and ENJOY the FULNESS of Christ REDEMPTION for you, you must CULTIVATE the acts to LOVE and PRAY for the one you tend to RESENT and the one who is RESENTING you. It is the gracious, beautiful and colourful lesson heard and learnt from my wife years ago to deal with human DIFFERENCE and INDIFFERENCE. And it CERTAINLY has worked and keep working for all who have been COUNSELLED along it, in dealing with various matters of life in human relationships: Family, Spouses, Friends, Workplace Colleagues, Leadership, Gospel Ministry and such like.

I can boldly affirm that it works because Christ Jesus on one of His SERMON ON THE MOUNT TEACHINGS made similar statements to us of LOVING, RELATING and PRAYING for our ENEMIES and those who DESPITEFULLY mistreat us in every respect of doing life and godly living. [Matthew 5:38-48].

The best way to OVERCOME and TRIUMPH in beauty and colour over RESENTMENT is to LOVE and PRAY for the one you ARE RESENTING or RESENTING you. For you can’t be ABLE to RESENT the PERSON you LOVE and you are PRAYING for and about; and especially if you truly want and BELIEVE and EXPECT God to ANSWER such PRAYERS of yours, except you are making a mockery of yourself before God because God cannot be mock [Galatians 6:7-10]; and in the same similarity, you will ALWAYS RESENT the PERSON you DON’T see the NEED to PRAY for, much else to LOVE as the Scriptures earnestly do requires and do put a demand on us to love, in order to be the God’s genuine DISCIPLE, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [John 13:34-35; John 15:12-14].

Therefore, SET YOURSELF FREE WITH LOVE AND PRAYER – It’s the ANTIDOTE to RESENTMENT. Give it a goal to do today, you will witness peace and joy indescribable and incomprehensible, both for yourself and for the good of all, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Romans 5:5-11].

Set yourself FREE with LOVE and PRAYER – it’s the ANTIDOTE to RESENTMENT, at least for your own innermost peace and quietness. Give it a goal today you will witness peace and joy indescribable for yourself. I pray you know and understand that LOVE and PRAYERS will work for you to deal with RESENTMENT today and always.

You need to PLEASE God to make your enemy and cohorts to be at PEACE with you [Proverbs 16:7]. And you can only PLEASE God by FAITH [Hebrews 11:6]. And FAITH only WORKS by LOVE [Galatians 5:6, 13]. And the God’s LOVE is without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation – and it’s the antidotes to deal with enemy and cohorts Scripturally [Romans 12:9-21; Proverbs 25:21-22; Matthew 5:36-48]. Hence, you can deal with resentment at the form Scripturally as laid out in the context of discussion if you want solutions God’s way and path and not your self-seeking way and path.

And BLESSED regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS as you BEGIN to enjoy the needed and resultant PEACE born for acting DIFFERENCE instead of INDIFFERENCE from the norm – “an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth’ – the golden rule.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 BUT GOD COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US. 9 Much more then, being now JUSTIFIED by his blood, we shall be SAVED FROM WRATH through him. 10 For if, when we were ENEMIES, we were RECONCILED to God by the death of his Son, much more, BEING RECONCILED, we shall be SAVED BY HIS LIFE. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now RECEIVED the atonement” Romans 5:5-11.

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR, and HATE THINE ENEMY. 44 But I say unto you, LOVE your ENEMIES, BLESS them that CURSE you, do GOOD to them that HATE you, and PRAY for them which DESPITEFULLY use you, and PERSECUTE you; 45 that ye may be the CHILDREN of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye LOVE them which LOVE you, what REWARD have ye? do not even the PUBLICANS the same? 47 And if ye SALUTE your BRETHREN only, what do ye more than others? do not even the PUBLICANS so? 48 Be ye therefore PERFECT (Complete, Whole, Mature), even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT (Complete, Whole, Mature)” Matthew 5:43-47 (Emphasis Mine).

“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.

“Dearly beloved, AVENGE not yourselves, but rather GIVE place unto WRATH: for it is written, VENGEANCE is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 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. 21 Be not OVERCOME of evil, but OVERCOME evil with good” Romans 12:19-21.

“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.

“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.

“So then FAITH COMETH BY HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

EXPRESSING LIFE BY LOVE

EXPRESSING LIFE BY LOVE: FOR LOVE IS THE GREATEST – THE MORE AND MOST EXCELLENT WAY TO DO LIFE AND LIVE GODLY!

“But COVET EARNESTLY THE BEST GIFTS: and yet shew I unto you A MORE EXCELLENT WAY . .  “ 1 Corinthians 12:31 – 1 Corinthians 13.

What an awesome BLESSEDNESS, the hearing of Jesus saying now and always – “GO AND DO LIKEWISE” – meaning GO expressing LIFE through the EYES of LOVE and CARE, even when you are too busy – as His set standard if you are truly going to be my Disciple. In other words – DON’T BE SO HEAVENLY MINDED [MINDFUL] and of NO EARTHLY GOOD – that’s the message to ALL in Luke 10:25-37 of the good Samaritan. Let not nothing come in between you with the distinction of persons as the following did to the Samaritans by their indifference through sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation:

  1. The PRIEST [Leadership]
  2. The LEVITES [Leadership Associate/Assistants]
  3. And YOU [In and of any Capacity (Position, status)].

Now know henceforth, that Jesus was and is endorsing the need of the hour and moment for all times, of LOVING and LIVING BEYOND WALLS and BOUNDARIES of – Creed, Colour, Tradition, Denomination, Culture, Tongue, Believe/Faith, Nations and more as in our redemption:

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED US to God by thy blood out of every KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE US unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

“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 3:13-14, 26-29.

For ALL humans are God’s irrespective of geography, colour, gender, tongue and looks and believe and such like, even as written but not limited in these further Scriptures: Acts 17:24-28; Galatians 5:6, 13; Galatians 6:14-15/2 Corinthians 5:17; Romans 10:11-13; John 13:34-35; John 15:13-14; 1 John 3-5:3.

Therefore – “GO AND DO LIKEWISE” – Jesus said to ALL. Do this by expressing LIFE through LOVE and CARE even when you are too busy – for therein is God working out His PURPOSE in you and through you in His grace.

MAY YOU BE BLESSED IN GOD’S GRACE AND BLESSEDNESS AS YOU”GO AND DO LIKEWISE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN.

“But covet EARNESTLY THE BEST GIFTS: and yet shew I unto you A MORE EXCELLENT WAY . .  ” 1 Corinthians 12:31 – 1 Corinthians 13.

“And, behold, a certain LAWYER stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, WHAT SHALL I DO TO INHERIT ETERNAL LIFE?  26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how READEST thou?  27 And he answering said, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself.  28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: THIS DO, AND THOU SHALT LIVE. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, AND WHO IS MY NEIGHBOUR?  30 And Jesus answering said, A CERTAIN MAN went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, AND FELL AMONG THIEVES, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him HALF DEAD.  31 And by chance there came down a CERTAIN PRIEST that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.  32 And likewise A LEVITE, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.  33 But a CERTAIN SAMARITAN, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had COMPASSION on him,  34 and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.  35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, TAKE CARE OF HIM; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.  36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was NEIGHBOUR unto him that fell among the thieves?  37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, GO, AND DO THOU LIKEWISE” Luke 10:25-37.

“The God who CREATED the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; 25 nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, because it is He who gives to ALL [people] LIFE and BREATH and ALL THINGS. 26 And He MADE from one man every nation of mankind to live on the face of the earth, having DETERMINED their appointed TIMES and the BOUNDARIES of their LANDS and TERRITORIES. 27 This was so that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grasp for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us. 28 FOR IN HIM WE LIVE and MOVE and EXIST [that is, in Him we actually HAVE OUR BEING], as even some of your own poets have said, ‘FOR WE ALSO ARE HIS CHILDREN” Acts 17:24-28 Amplified.

OCCUPY TILL I COME – IN LOVE

OCCUPY TILL I COME – IN LOVE: LOVE ENHANCES EARTHLY USEFULNESS AND HEAVENLY MINDEDNESS!

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because THE LOVE of God is SHED (LAVISHED) abroad in our HEARTS (SPIRIT-BEING) by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5, 8.

Talking about LOVE! Here is a didactic sense of measure, such that we don’t just say we have love, but we do LIVE and WALK in LOVE, knowing that love is of God; and it’s love is the lubricant for our life in Christ Jesus and for all mankind. Upon this we can Occupy In Christ until he comes by “BEING EARTHLY USEFUL WHILE HEAVENLY MINDED”.

Love is an ATTITUDE, a deliberate choice, an exercise of the will, a choice of life and is not just a feeling, it is an expression of the nature of God. It is spiritual, divinely inspired and imbedded in the very hearts of all God’s human creation, and more importantly in the very nature of the redeemed child of God. Hence it’s not a doctrine, creed and dogmas. It outlived generation because it’s timeless and of God’s. For God is love as written:

“Beloved, let us LOVE one another: for LOVE is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; FOR GOD IS LOVE. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins . . . 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. GOD IS LOVE; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:7–10, 16-18.

Love is a FRUIT and not a GIFT. FRUITS are GROWN while GIFTS are IMPARTED. Genuine Bible love – Agape – is born and is a product of the Holy Spirit that indwells in us – (Romans 5:5, 8; Galatians 5:22-23; Ephesians 5:9).

Let’s consider love in diversity for a clearer understanding of the kind of love being implied in this context.

DEFINING THE THREE KINDS OF LOVE:

*1. PHILEO: Greek (of the soul) – Love relationship in family – between parent and child. The Family kind of love. It also embodied love relationship towards friends and colleagues. It means to be fond of; it is based on FEELINGS and not on PRINCIPLE. It’s never used of man’s love to or for God. This is human or natural kind of love. (Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Genesis 8:19; Ephesians 6:4; Colossians 3:21). This kind of love is however essential and crucial for a family bonding and wellbeing.

*2. EROS: Greek (of the Physical body) – Sexual love; purely reserved for the married – within the bond of marriage. It’s based on PHYSICAL ATTRACTION. It’s neither for fornication nor adultery. Lust and immoral desires have gotten some into it, hence there’s a great act of PERVERSION in our societies today – and we are paying hugely for the consequences across the board. (Hebrews 13:4; 1 Corinthians 7:1-9; 1 Corinthians 6:15-20).

*3. AGAPE: Greek (of the spirit) – God kind of love; unconditional, limitless, divine, spiritual. It transcends race, gender, generation, culture, family, physical, personal (self) etc. 1 Corinthians 13. It’s built on PRINCIPLE. Agape love even helps to ensure, STRENGTHEN and MAINTAIN the Phileo and Eros kind of love in all life endeavours. Agape love is based on PRINCIPLE – be it towards things or people.

Notably, the PHILEO OR EROS kinds of Love need to be controlled by AGAPE kind of love or else it will hinder our fellowship with God and leads to SIN acts. (E.g. EROS – 1 Corinthians 13:5; PHILEO – 1 Samuel 2:22-36).

Let’s not just say we have love, lets LIVE and WALK IN LOVE, for love is of the Spirit – Romans 5:5.

IT’S BY TIME TO LIVE AND WALK IN LOVE. LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN. FOR THE CHARGE – OCCUPY TILL I COME – IN LOVE ENHANCES EARTHLY USEFULNESS AND HEAVENLY MINDEDNESS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:25.

“Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2 and WALK IN LOVE, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour” Ephesians 5:1-2.

“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED IN LOVE, 18 may be able to COMPREHEND with all saints what is the BREADTH, and LENGTH, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 and to KNOW THE LOVE OF christ, which PASSETH (TRANSCENDS,  SURPASSED) KNOWLEDGE (SENSE), that ye might be FILLED with all the FULNESS of God” Ephesians 3:17-19.

“But the FRUIT of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law” Galatians 5:22-23/NKJV

“For the FRUIT of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth” Ephesians 5:9/NKJV.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“LET LOVE BE WITHOUT HYPOCRISY [SENTIMENTS, DISSIMULATION, PREJUDICE]. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another” Romans 12:9-10/Emphasis Mine.

“. . . 17 May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be ROOTED DEEP IN LOVE and FOUNDED SECURELY ON LOVE, 18 That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, THE EXPERIENCE OF THAT LOVE] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]; 19 [That you may really come] to KNOW [practically, through experience for yourselves] THE LOVE OF CHRIST, which FAR SURPASSES MERE KNOWLEDGE [without experience]; that you may be FILLED [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! . . .” Ephesians 3:14-21/Amplified Classic Edition.

“Beloved, let us [unselfishly] love and seek the best for one another, for LOVE is from God; and everyone who loves [others] is born of God and knows God [through personal experience]. 8 The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for GOD IS LOVE. [He is the originator of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.] 9 By this the love of God was displayed in us, in that God has sent His [One and] only begotten Son [the One who is truly unique, the only One of His kind] into the world so that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation [that is, the atoning sacrifice, and the satisfying offering] for our sins [fulfilling God’s requirement for justice against sin and placating His wrath]. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us [in this incredible way], we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has seen God at any time. But if we love one another [with unselfish concern], God abides in us, and His love [the love that is His essence abides in us and] is completed and perfected in us. 13 By this we know [with confident assurance] that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given to us His [Holy] Spirit. 14 We [who were with Him in person] have seen and testify [as eye-witnesses] that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 Whoever confesses and acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16 We have come to know [by personal observation and experience], and have believed [with deep, consistent faith] the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides continually in him. 17 In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him]; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]. 19 We love, because He first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates (works against) his [Christian] brother he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should also [unselfishly] love his brother and seek the best for him” 1 John 4:7-21 (Amplified).

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS TO THRIVE

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS TO THRIVE: YOU ARE NOT TO SURVIVE AND YOU ARE NOT A SURVIVAL!

“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 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/NKJV.

It’s time to live and speak well of who you ARE in God in Christ Jesus stead and not what life circumstances and situations wants you to be and or be defined by and classed, when you know it contradicts who and what you are and have become in the New Creation Testament of God’s BLESSEDNESS.

“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, 4 just as He CHOSE us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having PREDESTINED us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will” Ephesians 1:3-5.

Therefore, don’t just EXIST – LIFE IS WORTH THE LIVING – LIVE it then – make it HAPPEN – make each day count and account for your good and goodness, according to God’s word, by God’s divine power, in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“GRACE and PEACE be multiplied to you in the KNOWLEDGE of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His DIVINE POWER has GIVEN to us ALL THINGS that PERTAIN to LIFE and GODLINESS, through the KNOWLEDGE of Him who CALLED us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been GIVEN to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4/NKJV.

And know for SURE today, that living is about the bonding and abiding within us, of these elements of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus:

    ** HOPE

    ** FAITH

    ** LOVE

“And now abide FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, these three; but the greatest of these is love” 1 Corinthians 13:13.

“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” 1 Thessalonians 1:3.

And in Christ Jesus, it is in our applying these elements in the principles of the context, as we do life and live godly in God’s graciousness and gracefulness, that we THRIVE and BECOME in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead and not to SURVIVE or be a SURVIVAL by any means in the world.

** By been PATIENCE in whatever you are so keen to pursue and achieve in HOPE;

** By endeavouring to live through LOVE in all you set to LABOUR to achieve;

** And by ensuring FAITH as a living currency in your process of WORK to achieve that desired intent.

Our God in redemption has not only delivered us and translated us [Colossians 1:13-14] in Christ Jesus, but have promised to DELIVER us daily from the evil that’s in this our present world. The evil and wickedness of all sorts that creates the effects that had made some to be under the shadows of the survival of the fittest as the saying goes. God knows that His WILL in His WORD, can cause us to access His promises for our inheritance, that’s available and set ready for all whom He had SANCTIFIED – set apart, in redemption in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might DELIVER us from this PRESENT EVIL WORLD, according to the WILL of God and our Father: 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Galatians 1:3-5.

“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.

I urge you in Christ Jesus, to always MEASURE your living WORTH by the ingredients of HOPE, FAITH and LOVE even as in God’s word. I PRAY that our God of HOPE, FAITH and LOVE, may abound with you more and more in everyway in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Have a BLESSED day as you THRIVE in grace by the word, and NEVER on the badge of a survival or surviving while in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“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” Hebrews 11:1-3.

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision AVAILETH any thing, nor uncircumcision; but FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE” Galatians 5:6.

FORE-Telling And FORTH-Telling

FORE-Telling And FORTH-Telling: The Difference As To The OLD And NEW TESTAMENT – PROPHETS And PROPHECY!

Don’t be deceived and mistaken again by any – because, you ARE your own PROPHET – meaning therefore, that you can EXAMINE, that is, JUDGE the spirit before you AFFIRM the PROPHECY blindly – for the Holy Spirit of God LIVES in you to ASCERTAIN the TRUTH that assures, ensures and sets one FREE. FEAR NOT THEREFORE ANYMORE!

“Let the PROPHETS speak two or three, and let the other JUDGE (EXAMINE)” 1 Corinthians 14:29 (Emphasis Mine).

For a while now, majority of innocent Christians have ended up in more bondages in their curiosity to obtain miracles or blessings from SO CALLED PROPHETS, whom unknowingly  are more a FORTUNE TELLER on SPELLS.

I have used the word “SO CALLED PROPHETS” because such are not genuine in respect to the genuine PROPHETS of God by the obvious unscriptural acts and vices they have exposed people to do in their vulnerability. For God’s GENUINE PROPHET are CALLED and SENT FORTH as MESSENGER with His message which does not take advantage of people’s vulnerability.

Firstly the Scriptures accredites the essence of PROPHET and PROPHETIC Ministry in both the OLD and NEW Testament (Ephesians 4:11-16). Unfortunately, their acts of OPERATIONS, ADMINISTRATIONS and MANIFESTATIONS are not the same, meaning are contrary to each TESTAMENTS (1 Corinthians 12:4-7); and unfortunately, many are exerting and exercising their intents of the OLD TESTAMENT in the NEW TESTAMENT.

In the OLD TESTAMENT there were three classes of LEADERSHIP – The KING (To oversee, protect and defend in civic governance of the people), The PRIEST (To minister To God on the behalf of the People) and The PROPHET (To HEAR and RECEIVE The WORD from Father God for the people). And more importantly, none of them or the people of that TESTAMENT assigned to LEAD where BORN AGAIN, BAPTISED AND FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT living within, in order to authenticate The WORD of God as it is today – (John 3:3-8, 16-18). For The Holy Spirit comes upon these three sects as of when needed to accomplish the purposes in their jurisdiction of obligations under God. It comes UPON them ONLY. Never LIVES in them.

And the PROPHET (as per this context) in the OLD TESTAMENT was to HEAR The WORD from God by The Holy Spirit that comes UPON them ONLY to minster to God’s people. Hence the purposeful function was to FORE TELL (FORE-TELLING) in Ministerial UTTERANCES.

And to FORE TELL which is a verb, means to predict as instructed; to tell the future as instructed before it occurs and to prophesy about God’s intended plan in solving immediate or future purpose of God to His people. And in each case God don’t live His people in limbos but gives direction of travels to fulfill His intended RIGHTEOUS plan and purpose. And God did all the intended doings in the OLD TESTAMENT as a process of carrying out His PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT towards human REDEMPTION which was to be fulfilled in Christ Jesus – (Luke 24:44-45; John 1:45; Galatians 3:23-25).

NOW WE HAVE CHRIST JESUS, RESULTING OR THE CONSEQUENCE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT.

The NEW TESTAMENT PROPHET, unlike the OLD TESTAMENT PROPHET differs in many respects. Firstly, REDEMPTION has been fulfilled in Christ Jesus for humanity. And the people of God today are born of God in grace within, baptised and filled with the indwelling Holy Spirit to give guide and guard the respective individual and collective body; and are also given the rights to access God unhindered individually and collectively, with no bypass of any person or persons. And by the indwelling Holy Spirit through God’s WORD, one CAN make JUDGEMENT to any form of PROPHECY or PROPHETIC UTTERANCES of any SORTS, if it be of God or not.

It thus means that the NEW TESTAMENT PROPHET are ONLY in a position to SPEAK FORTH, that is, to FORTH TELL (FORTH TELLING) in Ministerial UTTERANCES. And to FORTH TELL is a verb and is to tell forth, that is, publish abroad, make known, spread, shout out and broadcast the GOSPEL, the Good news in that which has been fulfilled in Christ Jesus on our behalf in REDEMPTION – which results is to EDIFICATION, EXHORTATION and COMFORT – (1 Corinthians 14:3-4). Wherein there’s no fear, threat, complex and unnecessary sentiments to appeal to any at all.

And since we live in the sphere and realm of the Holy Spirit to REVEAL and AUTHENTICATE God’s PLAN, PURPOSE and PLAN in Christ Jesus in us by The WORD, we need no such like ACTS of the OLD TESTAMENT PROPHET (1 Corinthians 2:9-10). Genuine PROPHETIC PROPHECY of God will point one to JESUS and not self, ego and personality (Revelation 19:10). And anyone who claims to have a PROPHETIC PROPHECY and does not seems to be EXAMINE indicates erroneous, ignorance, proud, rude, self egoism and such like. (Acts 17:10-13; 1 Corinthians 14:29). Every PROPHESY must be EXAMINE in the LIGHT of God’s WORD (Isaiah 8:16, 19-20; 2 Peter 1:19-21).

It’s unfortunate that some sects of Ministers have assumed to become PROPHET or have a PROPHETIC message which I said are ‘SO CALLED PROPHET’. They go about taking advantage of God’s precious people in their ignorance of been not an adent searchers of the SCRIPTURES as BEREA Christians (Acts 17:10-13) and are exerting and exercising the OLD TESTAMENT Prophetic Ministerial acts on the NEW TESTAMENT Believers in Christ Jesus, which is absurd.

These dubious acts being practice, because it’s unbiblical and unscriptural, they results to FORTUNE TELL (FORTUNE-TELLING/TELLER). This is an act of a person who is supposedly able to predict a person’s future by palmistry, using a crystal ball, or similar methods as on sorcery, spells, witchcraft and such likes (Acts 8:1-25; Acts 19:8-20). This is FRAUD and FALSEHOODS that many unfortunately, who does not care to READ, KNOW and UNDERSTAND God’s WORD by the Holy spirit have become victims and are lured into such like bondages with all forms of fear phobias in order to consent to these sentiments.

Dear Believers in Christ, you have the right in Christ Jesus to make JUDGEMENT (EXAMINE) without being judgemental, on any prophecy no matter who SPEAKS or is SPEAKING (Acts 17:10-13), before you affirm your life to it, otherwise, the consequential error is yours and not God, for God is not the AUTHOR of CONFUSION – (1 Corinthians 14:26-33; Matthew 22:29).

THERE’S NO ROOM FOR THE SPIRIT OF FEAR, THREAT, INTIMIDATION AND TORMENT ON GOD’S PEOPLE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT PROPHETIC MINISTRY.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, BUT RATHER THAT YE MAY PROPHESY. 2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. 3 But he that PROPHESIETH speaketh unto men to EDIFICATION, and EXHORTATION, and COMFORT . . . 26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. 27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. 28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. 29 LET THE PROPHETS SPEAK TWO OR THREE, AND LET THE OTHER JUDGE (EXAMINE). 30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. 31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the AUTHOR OF CONFUSION, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints . . .” 1 Corinthians 14:1-40 (Emphasis Mine).

“Wherefore I put thee in REMEMBRANCE that thou STIR UP THE GIFT OF GOD, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath not given us THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:6-7

“Herein is our LOVE MADE PERFECT (COMPLETE, MATURE, WHOLE), that we may have boldness in the DAY OF JUDGMENT (PREDICAMENT, CHALLENGES, QUESTIONING): because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no FEAR IN LOVE; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18 (Emphasis Mine).

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES DAILY, WHETHER THOSE THINGS WERE SO. 12 Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few. 13 But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the people” Acts 17:10-13.

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

“And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: FOR THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS IS THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY” Revelation 19:10.

“We have also A MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY; whereunto ye do well that ye TAKE HEED, AS UNTO A LIGHT THAT SHINETH IN A DARK PLACE, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 knowing this first, that NO PROPHECY OF THE SCRIPTURE IS OF ANY PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. 21 For the PROPHECY came not in OLD TIME by the will of man: but HOLY MEN OF GOD SPAKE as they were MOVED BY THE HOLY GHOST” 2 Peter 1:19-21.

Revelation 12:11; Hebrews 10:23. 1 Corinthians 14:36-40. 1 John 4:1-3. 1 Corinthians 14:31-33; 1 Corinthians 14:2-4; Joel 2:28-29; John 7:37-39; John 14:15-17; Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; Acts 2; Romans 8:14-16, 26-27; Ezekiel 11:19-20; Ezekiel 36:26-27

JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK AGAIN TO REWARD: MAKE A DIFFERENCE NOW – WHILE YOU HAVE YOUR BREATH OF LIFE ON THIS SIDE OF THE HEAVENLY!

“Wherefore we LABOUR, that, whether PRESENT or ABSENT, we may be ACCEPTED of him. 10 For we must all APPEAR before the JUDGMENT SEAT of Christ; that every one may RECEIVE the things done in his body [HUMANITY], according to that he hath done, whether it be GOOD or BAD” 2 Corinthians 5:9-10.

Today is another day like many other days to remind you that – JESUS IS COMING BACK AGAIN ONE DAY – and beside, our heavenly home time call are unpredictable. And while you have this opportunity of being alive, endeavour to – MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND BE A HISTORY MAKER – in someone else’s life, today and always. It’s very important and imperative for your good and goodness, because there shall be a reckoning day where our WORK OF FAITH, LABOUR OF LOVE and PATIENCE OF HOPE [1 Thessalonians 1:3-5], shall be rewarded, whether done opening or secretly. For all Believer’s of God in Christ Jesus shall APPEAR before the JUDGEMENT SEAT of Christ for their respective rewards after the WHITE THRONE JUDGEMENT of the separation of the sheep [the Believer’s] from the goats [the unbeliever’s] at the timing of the Lord God.

“For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the DEAD and LIVING. 10 But why dost thou JUDGE [EXAMINE] thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all STAND before the JUDGMENT SEAT of Christ. 11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God” Romans 14:9-11/Emphasis Mine.

IT’S TIME TO ADD COLOUR TO SOMEONE ELSE LIFE – IT’S A GRACIOUS AND GRACEFUL THING TO DO. AM HERE TO SAY – THANK YOU AS YOU START THE ACT TODAY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD AND GOODNESS.

Take out any or all of these resources in your disposals today – TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT (Skill) and such like, and CALL or and GO visit that friend, relation or someone you know that have not being around for a while; more so, especially the one that have been absence for a while towards the CHURCH COMMUNITY GATHERING, and show sure God’s LOVE and CARES without worries and complaints.

“Beside THOSE THINGS [PERSONAL CHALLENGES] that are WITHOUT [EXTERNAL] , that which cometh upon me DAILY, the CARE of ALL the CHURCHES” 2 Corinthians 11:28/Emphasis Mine.

A SMILE to the orphan, bereaved, wounded, broken, abandoned, forgotten, weary and such like is not only gracious and graceful, but CONTAGIOUS and MEMORABLE. Show some humane of love and cares today to someone in NEED – This is Scripturally called “PURE RELIGION” indeed.

“. . . Let us now GO BACK and VISIT our brethren in EVERY CITY where we have PREACHED THE WORD of the Lord, and see HOW THEY ARE DOING” Acts 15:36.
