CALL TO PRAYERS – REPORT TO DUTY POST

April 22, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

CALL TO PRAYERS – REPORT TO DUTY POST: Will You PRAY? Can You PRAY? Let’s PRAY!

There’s The need To PRAY – God Promise To Answer When We Play Our Part To Get The Change We duly Need In Such A Time As Now. Create a PRAYER WALL – I mean moments of PRAYERS Daily, as HEZEKIAH did, until our change comes in the FULNESS of Joy (2 Kings 20:1-11; Isaiah 38:1-8)

Prayer Is The Believers’ Inescapable Access To God. God BREATHS through the Believer’s PRAYERS (Revelation 5:7-10; Revelation 8:2-4). Prayer is more than request, it’s the FELLOWSHIP that enhances our RELATIONSHIP of LOVE with the Father God, through His WORD, by the enabling of the Holy Spirit of grace.

PRAYING is employing and giving the HEAVENLY the permission into our EARTHLY affairs. God knows our needs, and knows we have needs, but do wants us to be involve, that is, to be participants in making it happen for our good. SO, LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN. God is faithful, true and sure. Do you believe that?

WHEN YOU PRAY – PRAY IN WISDOM

April 18, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WHEN YOU PRAY – PRAY IN WISDOM: God Will Only ANSWER a PURPOSEFUL Demand!

The kingdom of God is not wishy-washy or either this or that to appeals to sentiments and self seeking satisfaction in circumstances. For our God is a God of ORDER and DECENCY; and He will only COMMEND what He COMMAND.

For example, it’s not a case of demanding either PURPOSE or POWER, and in reverse, of POWER or PURPOSE. PURPOSE speaks of assignment, opportunity and causes; and that, you can’t accomplish with God without His enabling gracious POWER; in other words, you can’t crave in prayer for God’s gracious POWER for no PURPOSE or ASSIGNMENT or CAUSES for it to accomplish.

And as a child of God, this INTENT of PURPOSEFUL demand of God, is applicable whether to your education, career, business, ministry, family, marriage, relationship, finance, leadership, politics, governance and more. This is the reason why many PRAYERS and FASTING are unnecessary; it’s because they are PURPOSELESSLY driven with the intent of POWER or OPPORTUNITY intent. God doesn’t answer a PURPOSELESS REQUEST and POWERLESS DEMAND no matter the noise and emotional sentiments we endeavour to make it look, especially on how much PRAYERS and FASTING and NIGHT VIGIL’S that we do or are doing to accompany such in order to get an answered.

So, watch out how you pray; it’s not just enough when a Minister lays hand and pour ointment on you and declare breakthroughs means an end, you need to reconcile matters of GRACE DEMAND to PURPOSE. Otherwise, after few days or weeks or months, you will find yourself back to zero point again and in delusion. Hence I ask – Is that God’s will and intent for the New Testament and Covenant Church? And I say NO and NO!

It’s only when PURPOSE are right, then the accompanying POWER (opportunity) then works TOGETHER for the good, to ensure that one have the MEANINGFUL FULFILMENT with God. That’s why we must take heed to God’s assignment in our life and we don’t do a wishy-washy attitude with it if we intend having our altitude of grace by God’s APPROVAL and not man’s APPLAUD – (Colossians 4:17; 2 Timothy 2:15; Acts 2:22; Romans 8:28).

Our perfect example is our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. In His humanity was led of the Holy Spirit, meaning not a self show off, to FAST and PRAY. He returned with the POWER of the Holy Spirit accompanying the set PURPOSE of God – the empowering or empowerment of the Holy Spirit which He laid out in the synagogue Services immediately for all to bear Him record – Luke 4:1-2, 14, 16-22. He lived through humanity in that cause or purpose and power with meaningful fulfillment of God’s intent for humanity. In same-like scenario, you can do life with God in all phases of your life, be it in – education, career, business, ministry, family, marriage, relationship, finance, leadership, politics, governance and such like.

Make your PRAYERS count and account for your good, meaningfully and fulfilling. And PRAYERS can only COUNT And ACCOUNT for one’s own good, when Intentionally, it’s done by reconciling DEMAND With PURPOSE.

So PAUSE and THINK – SELAH!

GIVING THANKS, PRAYERS and REMEMBERANCE

February 17, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

GIVING THANKS, PRAYERS and REMEMBERANCE: KNOWING THAT YOUR WORK, LABOUR AND PATIENCE ARE NOT IN VAIN!

There is sufficient cause to remain steadfast in your life in the Lord, as you keep on keeping, on the gracious and graceful kingdom acts.

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye STEDFAST, UNMOVEABLE, always ABOUNDING in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your LABOUR is not in VAIN in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 15:58.

There is the cause to always give THANKS, PRAYERS and REMEMBERANCE for the essence of three gracious and graceful acts in your life in the LORD and His Kingdom advancement. These are:

* The (Your) Work of Faith

* The (Your) Labour of Love

* The (Your) Patience of Hope

You need to give thanks to God always for you and others about you, as you take each passing day step, to advance the CAUSE of God’s Kingdom Business; and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. It’s a gracious and graceful synergy to keep one focus as God’s ambassador and representative on this side of the heavenly in the midst of the challenging and difficult times.

Except otherwise, you then need to ponder about them and measure yourself in the light of the scripture if you are indeed standing sure on the gracious and graceful Kingdom acts of the Lord God. And wherein otherwise, awake from your slumbering and backsliding state and get back on your feet again while its day when you need to work and walk in the grace that WORTH REMEMBERANCE. And knowing that every grace and speed will be yours again in the Lord.

I pray you have a blessed, gracious and graceful day, today in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SOME SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

“And now abideth FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, these three; but the greatest of these is Love” 1 Corinthians 13:13 (Emphasis Mine).

“For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown for His name in ministering to [the needs of] the saints (God’s people), as you do. 11 And we desire for each one of you to show the same diligence [all the way through] so as to realize and enjoy the full assurance of hope until the end, 12 so that you will not be [spiritually] sluggish, but [will instead be] imitators of those who through faith [lean on God with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in His power] and by patient endurance [even when suffering] are [now] inheriting the promises” Hebrews 6:10-12 Amplified.

“. . . 12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; 15 while it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation” Hebrews 3:7-15.
