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.

PERSONAL AND NATIONAL PRAYER WALLS

PERSONAL AND NATIONAL PRAYER WALLS: YOU CHANGING THE COURSE OF HUMAN HISTORY BY DIVINITY!

PRAYERS – The gracious mantle of changing the course of human history by divinity – be a part of the train and trailblazers – for the world needs your impact – and prayers it’s an access to it by God in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

“I exhort therefore, that, FIRST of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be MADE for ALL men; 2 for KINGS, and for ALL that are in AUTHORITY; that we may lead a QUIET and PEACEABLE life in all GODLINESS and HONESTY. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” 1 Timothy 2:1-6.

Prayer CHANGES things; it’s your time to PRAY to SAVE yourself and those you care about from BECOMING the PREY and VICTIM of the unrelenting Enemy and Cohorts. We are in a great time of great NEED, and God’s grace is readily available today as always to ANSWER our QUEST and deep hearts yearnings in this difficult and challenging times, as it’s written:

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, LET US HOLD FAST OUR PROFESSION. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the FEELING OF OUR INFIRMITIES; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come BOLDLY UNTO THE THRONE OF GRACE, that we may obtain mercy, AND FIND GRACE TO HELP IN TIME OF NEED” Hebrews 4:14-16.

There’s a very strong NEED today than ever before for you to team up and create a Personal, Community and National PRAYER WALLS to end the appalling devastation on our homes, streets, communities (local, state, national), government and governance.

Do you have a set personal PRAYER WALL? Can you team with one or two or more for a PRAYER WALL chain of at least 5mins a day? I know you can if you resolved.

There is the need to have a PRAYER WALL for Personal and National Affairs with God, if you must make a remarkable eternal effect and difference in your earthly life affairs before God and Mankind. This is only possible when you can recall King Hezekiah PRAYER WALLS to reverse his life span sentence after a verdict has been divinely made upon him as in the Holy writ of Isaiah 38:1-8. Like King Hezekiah, as redeemed royal priesthood, God can tell you what will happen in your circumstances, and you can change the outcome. Too often, we look for somebody else to do it for us. It’s now your time and my time to rise to the platform and make the difference we dearly need and desired.

God will HEAL and wants to HEAL our LAND (Nations) from any forms of ills, but it’s in our prerogative to create the atmosphere to ensure His healing virtue has a free cause to be fulfilled as promised. And it’s simply for these three reasons as written in 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

** When There’s No RAIN (No Productivity) to THRIVE and FULLFIL PURPOSE due to stalled or stunted or collapse or meltdown in economic growth and development.

** When The LOCUSTS (Economic recessions, Corruption and Austerity Measures) invades and rules the land (Nations) due to bad governance/government or failed personal and national economic set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT.

** When PESTILENCE (Divers kinds of Endemic and Epidemic Diseases and Sicknesses) invades the land (Nations) despite all the research and technology in medical science investments year to year to curb the various infirmities.

The scriptures of Chronicles indicates that we can turn the hand of divinity for good towards us for the heavenly outpour. Meaning if divinity was RESPONSIBLE for our pains, we CAN appeal to God and change His intent as the Scriptural context indicates; much more if He’s not, we can for sure and certainty with divinity on our side be able to thrive, accomplish and bring about the change and atmosphere we earnestly crave to have. That is, giving the heavenly permission to interfere for the good of our earthly affairs. Think about it as the Holy writ scriptures thus indicate.

“If I SHUT UP HEAVEN that there be NO RAIN, or if I COMMAND the LOCUSTS to DEVOUR the LAND, or if I SEND PESTILENCE among my PEOPLE;  14 if MY PEOPLE, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and PRAY, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I HEAR from heaven, and will FORGIVE their sin, and will HEAL their land.  15 Now mine EYES shall be open, and mine EARS attend unto the prayer that is made in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

PRAYERS – THE MANTLE OF CHANGING THE COURSE OF HUMAN HISTORY BY DIVINITY. Let’s get engaged, let’s get on board, let’s do it, as the only living breath we have for our wholeness, fulness, fruitfulness and fulfilment in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“If I SHUT UP HEAVEN that there be NO RAIN, or if I COMMAND the LOCUSTS to DEVOUR the LAND, or if I SEND PESTILENCE among my PEOPLE;  14 if MY PEOPLE, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and PRAY, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I HEAR from heaven, and will FORGIVE their sin, and will HEAL their land.  15 Now mine EYES shall be open, and mine EARS attent unto the prayer that is made in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

“In those days was HEZEKIAH SICK UNTO DEATH. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, SET THINE HOUSE IN ORDER: FOR THOU SHALT DIE, AND NOT LIVE. 2 Then Hezekiah TURNED HIS FACE TOWARD THE WALL, and PRAYED unto the Lord, 3 and said, Remember now, O Lord, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. 4 Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying, 5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years. 6 And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city. 7 And this shall be a sign unto thee from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken; 8 behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down” Isaiah 38:1-8.

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

There’s HEALING And An ANSWER

There’s HEALING And An ANSWER: It’s TIME To PRAY And Not To PLAY And FAINT!

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that MEN OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (WEARY, GIVE UP, LOSE HEART)” Luke 18:1(Emphasis Mine).

When you are against the WALLS of personal, family, and national ECONOMIC CRISIS and PANDEMIC DISEASES and WARS EFFECTS, and such like NATURAL or MAN-MADE disasters –  you need no special vision or Prophet to inform you that you need to CONNECT to the HEAVENLY to resolve your EARTHLY affair matters.

There’s ALWAYS an ANSWER to Human problems – and PRAYER makes  ALL the DIFFERENCE – it’s time to give it a GO as in the Bible days of 2 Chronicles 7:13-15 when there ARE:

* NO RAIN – Meaning NO – job, productivity, employment, opportunities, creativity, innovation, and side effects of no more – love, joy, peace, happiness as should be . . .

* DEVOURING LOCUST – Meaning No productivity, economic meltdown, business/company closure, financial indebtedness, personal or national economic decline, the powerful eating up the poor, and more – injustice, war, hunger, corruption, and such.

* PESTILENCE/EPIDEMICS/PANDEMIC – Meaning Sickness and Diseases of ALL sorts that can kill and ruin lives, stagnant and mained one’s life with pains, suffering, and more as epidemic and pandemic of any sort.

IT’S TIME TO GENUINELY PRAY AND NOT PLAY and FAINT [OR WEARY, GIVE UP] – THERE IS ALREADY AN ECONOMIC EFFECT GRADUALLY SIPPING IN AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC AND WAR EFFECTS ON NATIONS.

WATCH and PRAY before you BECOME a VICTIM instead of a VICTOR.

“WATCH and PRAY, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak” Matthew 26:41.

“If I SHUT UP HEAVEN that there be NO RAIN, or if I command THE LOCUSTS to DEVOUR the land, or if I send PESTILENCE among my people; 14 if MY PEOPLE, which are CALLED by my name, shall HUMBLE themselves, and PRAY, and SEEK my face, and TURN FROM their WICKED ways; then will I HEAR from heaven, and will FORGIVE their sin, and will HEAL their land. 15 Now mine EYES shall be open, and mine EARS attent unto the PRAYER that is made in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that MEN OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (WEARY, GIVE UP, LOSE HEART) Luke 18:1(Emphasis Mine).

“PRAYING always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and WATCHING thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints” Ephesians 6:18.

“But the END OF ALL THINGS IS AT HAND: be ye therefore sober, and WATCH UNTO PRAYER” 1 Peter 4:7.

“Continue in PRAYER, and WATCH in the same with THANKSGIVING” Colossians 4:2.

“And it came to pass, when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire; 2 and had taken the women captives, that were therein: they slew not any, either great or small, but carried them away, and went on their way. 3 So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives. 4 Then David and the people that were with him LIFTED UP THEIR VOICE AND WEPT, UNTIL THEY HAD NO MORE POWER TO WEEP. 5 And David’s two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite. 6 And David was GREATLY DISTRESSED; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God. 7 And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech’s son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David. 8 And David ENQUIRED at the Lord, saying, Shall I PURSUE after this troop? shall I overtake them? And He ANSWERED him, PURSUE: for thou shalt surely OVERTAKE them, AND WITHOUT FAIL RECOVER ALL . . . 18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away: and David rescued his two wives. 19 And there was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil, nor any thing that they had taken to them: David RECOVERED ALL. 20 And David took all the flocks and the herds, which they drave before those other cattle, and said, This is David’s spoil . . .” 1 Samuel 301-31

TO OPERATE IN THE REALM OF SONSHIP

By Leave a Comment

TO OPERATE IN THE REALM OF SONSHIP: BE LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT!

“For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they ARE the SONS of God” Romans 8:14.

The realm of SONSHIP in Christ is not for those who merely or just have the Spirit within, but it’s a realm for those who are LED by His presence. Are you being LED by Him on a day to day or you just have Him only for a keep or whenever.

Sonship in this context is a non-gender. Being a CHILD of God is good and great. It only offers you entrance as a baby under tutors and guidance; but in the realm of being a SON – SONSHIP, is wherein you exercise dominion, exercise authority based on PRINCIPLES, and you define your life by wisdom which is of plan, purpose and pursuit statuesque in Christ Jesus; the realm of a SON – SONSHIP, it’s a position that’s endowed with trust and integrity, diligence and prudence, reverential fear and love, responsibility and accountability,  grace and speed, truth and righteousness, willingness and obedience, wisdom and virtue, charisma and character, and such like. The intent is to become God’s ambassador and representative on earth, thereby advancing God’s Kingdom causes on earth and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay, and that’s in everyway of doing LIFE and living GODLY, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

By being LED by Him – the Holy Spirit of TRUTH, you unveil yourself to the realm of REVELATION on the written and unwritten WORD of God which I call the working ACTS of the HOLY SPIRIT within. For SONSHIP POSITION is about being LED by the Holy Spirit through our human spirit on the WORD of God.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, RECONCILING the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us THE WORD OF RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye RECONCILED to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

“If ye love me, keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you ANOTHER COMFORTER, that HE may ABIDE WITH you for ever; 17 even the Spirit of truth; whom THE WORLD CANNOT RECEIVE, because it seeth him not, neither KNOWETH him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth WITH you, and shall be IN you” John 14:15-17.

“For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they ARE the SONS of God. 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have RECEIVED the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth WITNESS with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together . . . 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE” Romans 8:14-17, 28/Emphasis Mine.

“But you have an ANOINTING from the Holy One [you have been set apart, specially GIFTED and PREPARED by the Holy Spirit], and all of you know [the TRUTH because He TEACHES us, ILLUMINATES our minds, and GUARDS us from error]. . . 27 As for you, the ANOINTING [the special gift, the preparation] which you RECEIVED from Him REMAINS [permanently] in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you. But just as His anointing teaches you [giving you insight through the presence of the Holy Spirit] about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as His anointing has taught you, [a]you must remain in Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him]” 1 John 2:20, 27 (AMPLIFIED).

“. . . 9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:6-10 (Emphasis Mine).

“Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a CHILD, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; 2 but is under TUTORS and GOVERNORS until the time appointed of the father. 3 Even so we, when we were CHILDREN, were in bondage under the ELEMENTS of the world: 4 but when the FULNESS of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of SONS. 6 And because YE ARE SONS, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 Wherefore thou art no more a SERVANT, but a SON; and if a SON, then an HEIR of God through Christ” Galatians 4:1-7.

“The spirit of man is the CANDLE (LAMP, SEARCHLIGHT), of the Lord, SEARCHING (EXAMINING) all the inward parts of the belly” Proverbs 20:27 Emphasis Mine.

“But there is a spirit in man: and the INSPIRATION of the Almighty GIVETH them understanding” Job 32:8.

“The Spirit of God hath MADE me, and the BREATH of the Almighty hath GIVEN me life” Job 33:4.

“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the BREATH of life; and man BECAME a LIVING soul” Genesis 2:7.

“For THE WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the DIVIDING (CUTTING) ASUNDER (SEPARATION) of SOUL and SPIRIT, and of THE JOINTS and MARROW, and is a DISCERNER of the thoughts and intents of the HEART. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13.

“And the very God of peace SANCTIFY (SET APART) you WHOLLY (COMPLETELY); and I pray God your WHOLE SPIRIT (SUBCONSCIOUS, SEARCHLIGHT, CANDLE, LAMP) and SOUL (WILL, MIND, EMOTION, REASONING FACULTY, CONSCIOUS YOU) and BODY (THE JOINTS and MARROW) be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Emphasis Mine).

THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION

By Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION: THE POWER OF GOD THAT CHANGES ALL THINGS – BOTH THE CHANGEABLE AND THE UNCHANGEABLE!

SALVATION of men, which is FRUITFULNESS in the SPIRIT, is the most awesome essence of THE GOSPEL. It’s our global, inescapable and supreme task, as God’s ambassadors in Christ Jesus stead. It’s a high and higher time to live it out daily, in order to populate the heavens and depopulate hell, by advancing the Kingdom cause of our God and in keeping the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay.

When last did you in passion and compassion share the GOSPEL to your unsaved friend, family member, neighbour, colleague and those about where you do life and express your godly living time and again. Make it a new dawn for you to share  this precious GOSPEL faith and fellowship with those especially that you care about and are reachable to begin with. The salvation of a soul is costly and no amount of earthly wealth and possession can quantify and qualify the redemption of a soul. Only the gospel can and will ALWAYS redeem a soul. Give it a go today.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER OF GOD unto SALVATION to every one that BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17

“GO, STAND and SPEAK in the temple to the people ALL THE WORDS of this life” Acts 5:20.

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

“They that TRUST in their WEALTH, and BOAST themselves in the MULTITUDE of their RICHES; 7 NONE OF THEM CAN BY ANY MEANS REDEEM HIS BROTHER, nor give to God a RANSOM for him: 8 (for the REDEMPTION of their SOUL IS PRECIOUS, and it ceaseth for ever:) 9 that he should still live for ever, and not see corruption. 10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others . . .” Psalms 49:6-12.

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 GO YE THEREFORE, and TEACH ALL NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 TEACHING them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” Matthew 28:18-20.

“And he said unto them, GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD, and PREACH the GOSPEL to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and PREACHED EVERY WHERE, the Lord working with them, and CONFIRMING THE WORD with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:15-20.

“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the GOSPEL of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35.

OVERCOMING RESENTMENT

By Leave a Comment

OVERCOMING RESENTMENT: PRAY FOR THOSE THAT HURT, DESPISED AND UNDERMINED YOU – FOR IT THUS WORKS!

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

Are you still BROODING and BROWSING In RESENTMENT? Do you desire to be FREE INDEED and experience true FREEDOM and DAILY TRIUMPH? There’s An ANSWER today for you. And I pray that you might have the WILL to let GOD be PLEASED and let GO of RESENTMENT, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And PLEASING God is responding to His WORD accordingly by FAITH and not by REACTING which is a mark AGAINST His WORD perception that’s contrary to your sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy/hypocritical), which tends to rebellion.

RESENTMENT – means a bitter indignation at having been treated unfairly, unjustly, poorly and such like. RESENTMENT is killing relationship at all levels, destroying families, ruining a healthy governance, destroying community and neighborhoods, creating ministerial discord and schism, and worst of all – it’s robbing many of ANSWERS to their PRAYERS from the Father God.

The feeling can be caused by several different circumstances and situations, however, they all involve a sense of injustice or wrongdoing from an individual. For example, public humiliation, constant discrimination or prejudice, being taken advantage of, feeling unrecognised, envy and jealousy and such like can all result in RESENTMENT.

The best ANTIDOTE to overcome and live triumphantly over and above RESENTMENT is to PRAY for the one you are RESENTING against. The act of PRAYER enables you to EXERCISE FAITH, which PLEASES God; and when you PLEASE God, He makes even your ENEMIES to be at PEACE with you and to WORK for your good. And PLEASING God by FAITH means you have the sense to FORGIVE and equally FORGET, that is, to let GO off you – no matter what and to let in God be – by taking care of such a matter on your behalf – Mark 11:22-26.

There’s the need to know full well, that God makes all things to work together for our good in everyway in Christ Jesus stead; this He has done in Christ Jesus, by JUSTIFYING – FORGIVING and FORGETTING, DISCHARGING and ACQUITTING – us of wrong doings, by in washing away, erasing off, letting go off our sin and it’s effect on us, by nailing them all – on the CROSS of our REDEMPTION. Romans 5:1-2; Romans 8:28; Ephesians 4:32; Colossians 3:13; Micah 7:18-19.

My wife once SOLD to me the Wisdom Nugget that I BOUGHT from her that SPIRITED up my journey in grace in this regards, which is this:

“When you truly BELIEVE to have ANSWERS to your PRAYERS by Father God, you’ll discover that you CAN’T RESENT against the person you are always PRAYING for no matter what; but you will ALWAYS RESENT towards the person you don’t PRAY for and not always have in PRAYERS, no matter the circumstances that lies in-between in you – hence there’s the need to PRAY, to cancel RESENTMENT”

This bought over WISDOM NUGGET of hers concept by grace, has become the motto that shapes our life the more. This gracious concept I have learnt from my wife, and it has always works and still works today and even now. Give it a goal today, even now where you can.

I repeat – Give it a goal today, right now and you will be truly BLESSED in everyway in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD . . . 24 Therefore I say unto you, What THINGS SOEVER ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them. 25 And when ye STAND PRAYING, FORGIVE, if ye have OUGHT AGAINST ANY: that your Father also which is in heaven may FORGIVE you your trespasses. 26 But if ye DO NOT FORGIVE, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses” Mark 11:22-26.

“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 publican so? 48 Be ye therefore PERFECT, even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT”. Matthew 5:43-48.

“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.

“Let love be WITHOUT dissimulation. 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; 11 not SLOTHFUL in business; FERVENT in spirit; serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 13 distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. 14 BLESS them which persecute you: BLESS, and curse not. 15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. 16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. 17 RECOMPENSE to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live PEACEABLY with all men. 19 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 12:9-21.

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, AN EYE FOR AN EYE, and A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH: 39 but I say unto you, That ye RESIST NOT EVIL: but whosoever shall SMITE thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also. 41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. 42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away” Matthew 5:38-42.

LETS PRAY FOR OUR ECCLESIASTICAL CHURCH MINISTERS

LET’S PRAY FOR OUR ECCLESIASTICAL CHURCH MINISTERS: THERE WILL BE HEALING IN OUR LAND!

“Praying ALWAYS with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 And for me, that UTTERANCE may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth BOLDLY, to make known the MYSTERY of the GOSPEL” Ephesians 6:18-19

There’s the need to PRAY for your Church Minister’s and the leadership team in order to:

 * Advance the Kingdom causes of our God

 * Keep the Enemy and Cohorts at Bay in everyway

 * Bring forth the needed Healing to the Community/Society at Large.

Are you a Christian? Great! Do you belong to a local Church/denomination settings, and you an indeed a committed member? That’s Marvellous!! It will be more gracious and graceful to PRAY MORE for your Pastor’s and Church leadership, to make profit of your God given time than expending precious time on those your groans, murmurs and complaints about your Church and Members problems all the time.

“PRAY FOR US: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly” Hebrews 13:18.

Your prayers in the THERE Church of yours, can do more to Advance the kingdom causes of God, keep the enemy and cohorts at bay, and give birth to the needed healing to the community and society at large, than your mere talking more of the problems surrounding your Church and community with all the God given time.

“Now I BESEECH you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ’s sake, and for the love of the Spirit, THAT YE STRIVE TOGETHER WITH ME IN YOUR PRAYERS TO GOD FOR ME; 31 that I may be DELIVERED from them that do not believe in Judæa; and that MY SERVICE which I have for Jerusalem may be ACCEPTED of the saints; 32 that I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be REFRESHED” Romans 15:30-32.

Civil leaders may try and endeavour to do their civic duties BUT if the Church can’t change society for the good of all, no one can. The Church is God’s measuring tape of HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to the society and community. That is the truth! That’s why your PRAYERS will be EFFICACIOUS to make the change and difference for now, today and tomorrow.

“. . . 10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. 11 And it came to pass, when Moses HELD UP HIS HAND, THAT ISRAEL PREVAILED: AND WHEN HE LET DOWN HIS HAND, AMALEK PREVAILED. 12 But Moses’ hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur STAYED UP HIS HANDS, THE ONE ON THE ONE SIDE, AND THE OTHER ON THE OTHER SIDE; and his hands were STEADY until the going down of the sun. 13 And Joshua DISCOMFITED Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword . . .” Exodus 17:8-16

Christ is building His Church, you can be a part of it through prayers than being a sideline inspector, spectator and gossip talker and author of anarchy and schism. The society and community are so polarised today with all sorts of ills. The Church is on demand to bring the change but needs Kingdom grace today than ever before, to heal humanity and society.

“Continue in PRAYER, and WATCH in the same with thanksgiving; 3 WITHAL PRAYING ALSO FOR US, that God would open unto us a door of UTTERANCE, to SPEAK THE MYSTERY of Christ, for which I am also in bonds: 4 that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak” Colossians 4:2-4.

JUST PRAY, THE MORE! And God Will surely HEAL the LAND, and that needs of yours and that of the larger community and humanity will be met in grace.

LETS PRAY FOR OUR ECCLESIASTICAL LEADERS – AS OUR GOD BUILD HIS CHURCH THROUGH THEM

I pray you God’s grace and speed in this mantle of knowledge and understanding for your good in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“If I SHUT up heaven that there be NO rain, or if I command the locusts to DEVOUR the land, or if I SEND pestilence among my people; 14 if MY PEOPLE, which are called by my name, shall HUMBLE themselves, and PRAY, and SEEK my face, and TURN from their WICKED ways; then will I HEAR from heaven, and will FORGIVE their sin, and will HEAL their land. 15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears ATTENT unto the prayer that is made in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

“. . . 16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER, THAT YOU MAY BE HEALED AND RESTORED. The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]” James 5:13-16 Amplified.

“. . . 23 And BEING LET GO, they went to THEIR OWN COMPANY, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. 24 And when they heard that, they LIFTED UP THEIR VOICE to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is: 25 who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? 26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. 27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, 28 for to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done. 29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, THAT WITH ALL BOLDNESS THEY MAY SPEAK THY WORD, 30 by stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. 31 And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were ASSEMBLED TOGETHER; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they SPAKE THE WORD OF GOD WITH BOLDNESS. 32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common. 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all  . . “ Acts 4:1-37.

There’s HEALING And An ANSWER

There’s HEALING And An ANSWER: It’s TIME To PRAY Not PLAY!

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that MEN OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (WEARY, GIVE UP, LOSE HEART)” Luke 18:1(Emphasis Mine).

When you are against the WALLS of personal, family and national ECONOMIC CRISIS and PANDEMIC DISEASES and WARS EFFECTS, and such like natural or man made disasters –  you need no special vision or Prophet to inform you that you need to CONNECT to the HEAVENLY in order to resolve your EARTHLY affair matters.

There’s An ANSWER – PRAYER Makes The DIFFERENCE – it’s time to give it a GO as in the Bible days of 2 Chronicles 7:13-15, when there ARE:

* NO RAIN – Meaning NO – job, productivity, employment, opportunities, creativity, innovation, and no more – love, joy, peace, happiness as should be . . .

* DEVOURING LOCUST – Meaning No productivity, economic meltdown, business/company closure, financial indebtedness, and personal or national economic decline, the powerful eating up the poor and more – injustice, war, hunger, corruption and such like.

* PESTILENCE/EPIDEMICS/PANDEMIC – Meaning Sickness and Diseases of ALL sorts that can kill and ruin lives, stagnant and man one’s life with pains, suffering and more.

IT’S TIME TO GENUINELY PRAY AND NOT PLAY – THERE IS ALREADY AN ECONOMIC EFFECT GRADUALLY SIPPING IN AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC AND WAR EFFECTS ON NATIONS.

WATCH and PRAY before you BECOME a VICTIM instead of a VICTOR.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“WATCH and PRAY, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak” Matthew 26:41.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that MEN OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (WEARY, GIVE UP, LOSE HEART)” Luke 18:1(Emphasis Mine).
