JESUS CHRIST – OUR REDEMPTION HAS JUSTIFIED US

By Leave a Comment

JESUS CHRIST – OUR REDEMPTION HAS JUSTIFIED US: HE RECONCILED US TO GOD – WE ARE NOW FORGIVEN, ACQUITTED AND RECEIVED IN CHRIST JESUS! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE UNTO US wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31. 

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 BY WHOM also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2. 

“And you hath HE QUICKENED (MADE ALIVE), who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his GREAT LOVE wherewith he LOVED US, 5 even when we were dead in sins, hath QUICKENED US together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 and hath RAISED US up together, and MADE US sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness TOWARD US through Christ Jesus. 8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: 9 NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST. 10 For WE ARE HIS WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ORDAINED that we should walk in them. 11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 that at that time ye were WITHOUT Christ, being ALIENS from the commonwealth of Israel, and STRANGERS from the covenants of promise, having NO HOPE, and WITHOUT God in the world: 13 but NOW in Christ Jesus ye who SOMETIMES WERE FAR OFF ARE MADE NIGH BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST. 14 For HE IS OUR PEACE, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 and that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 and came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18 for through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19 Now therefore YE ARE NO MORE strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 in whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22 in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit” Ephesians 2:1-22 (Emphasis Mine). 

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, ALL things have BECOME NEW. 18 Now all things are of God, who has RECONCILED us to Himself through Jesus Christ, anTherefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not [a]imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him has GIVEN us the ministry of RECONCILIATION, 19 that is, that God was in Christ RECONCILING the world to Himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses to them, and has COMMITTED to us the WORD of reconciliation. 20 Now then, we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He MADE Him who knew NO sin to be sin FOR us, that we might BECOME the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God IN Him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 NKJV.

OUR BLESSED REDEMPTION: ENACTING AND POSSESSING YOUR UNCONDITIONAL COVENANT DEED IN REDEMPTION! 

“And from Jesus Christ, the faithful and trustworthy Witness, the Firstborn of the dead, and the Ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who [always] LOVES US and who [has once for all] FREED US [or WASHED US] from our sins by His own blood (His sacrificial death)— 6 and FORMED US [or MADE US] into a kingdom [as His subjects], priests to His God and Father—to Him be the GLORY and the POWER and the MAJESTY and the DOMINION forever and ever. Amen” Revelation 1:5-6/AMP. 

It’s your time to enact and possess your possession, thereby authenticating your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus, in order to start enjoying the DEED; the otherwise ‘BILL of – RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES’ of our redemption in Christ Jesus – in the Kingdom. For we are His Chosen to show forth – reveal and manifest the redemption essence as we do life and live godly of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“Coming to Him as to a LIVING STONE, rejected indeed by men, but CHOSEN by God and PRECIOUS, 5 you also, as LIVING STONES, are being built up a SPIRITUAL HOUSE, a HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ . . . 9 But you are a CHOSEN GENERATION, a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, a HOLY NATION, His own SPECIAL people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy” 1 Peter 2:4-5, 9-10/NKJV. 

I pray for you this day, that you will sing a NEW SONG as the REDEEMED sang in the Bible days as typified of them in the Holy writ of Revelation 5:9-10 – this is so, as to ENACTING and APPROPRIATING our unconditional covenant in the REDEMPTION done deed in our Saviour and Lord – Christ Jesus, with Father God, on our behalf. Amen. 

“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. 

“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole FAMILY in heaven and earth is named . . .” Ephesians 3:14-21. 

May you know full well, that when Jesus led captivity captive, He RECEIVED GIFTS for men. And GAVE also GIFTS to men. And your name is named among men to share in this gracious act of REDEMPTION. He RECEIVED SPIRITUAL Covenant DEED on behalf of men in order to actualis REDEMPTION [Ephesians 1:1-14; Revelation 5:9-12; Psalms 68:18]; and He GAVE GIFTS: 

  1.  The MINISTERIAL/SPIRITUAL gifts to perfect [complete, mature] and to enhance the given gifts to men [Ephesians 4:7-16; 1 Corinthians 12:1-31; Romans 12:1-8].
  2. The SPIRITUAL FRUIT to enhance and perfect [mature, complete] men’s character and behavioural intent by the Holy Ghost [Luke 24:49; Acts 1:5-8; Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13; Romans 12:9-21].
  3. The NEW COVENANT in Christ Jesus, to ensure our restoration from the cursed of the fall and the curse of the law that had us in bondage until our redemption was enacted and sealed by the precious blood of crucifixion, to make the New creation in us. [Genesis 3:1-24; Deuteronomy 28:1-68; Galatians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV; Ephesians 1:7-8; 1 Corinthians 11:23-36; Luke 22:19-20 (Matthew 26:26-28); Hebrews 8:7-13; Hebrews 9:13-25; Hebrews 12:22-24] 

Herein is the BLESSEDNESS of the RECEIVED SPIRITUAL COVENANT DEED in our REDEMPTION for your perusal in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“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 . . . 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was SLAIN to RECEIVE POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGHT, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12. 

The Seven UNCONDITIONAL redemptive covenant deed RECEIVED on our behalf by Jesus Christ as we sit with Him at the right hand of the Father God in the heavenly are summed up in these: 

  1.  Power (Authority) – Power of attorney to exercise dominion, victory, more than conquerors and triumph in life and godly living, in place of oppression, fear, intimidation, inferiority complex, cowardice etc. – Luke 10:19; 2 Timothy 1:7. Etc.
  2. Riches (Prosperity) – In place of poverty, hunger, thirst etc. – 2 Corinthians 8:9; Philippians 4:19; 3 John 2; Psalms 35:27. Etc.
  3. Wisdom (Mental) – In place of ignorance, foolishness etc. – James 1:5, Luke 2:40, 52. Etc.
  4. Strength (Physique) – In place of weakness, sickness, and all ‘ness’ and infirmities etc. – Philippians 4:13; Isaiah 40:28-31. Etc.
  5. Honour (Dignity) – In place of dishonour, disdain, inferiority complex etc. – Colossians 1:13-14; Ephesians 1:7; 2 Timothy. 1:7. Etc.

May the BLESSEDNESS of God for our redemption make you perfect – whole, complete and mature – in the reality of His WORD in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

The PASSOVER – A MEMORIAL OF REDEMPTION

By Leave a Comment

The PASSOVER – A MEMORIAL OF REDEMPTION: OUR BLESSED REDEMPTION IS DONE! 

“For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. 14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in THE CROSS of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is CRUCIFIED unto me, and I unto the world. 15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a NEW CREATURE. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God” Galatians 6:13-16. 

There is this very simple reason to CELEBRATE and COMMEMORATE the crucifixion and death, the burial and resurrection, and the ascension and enthronement, of our risen Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ – it’s for this truth, about our restoration to Dominion that was once lost in EDEN now found by the CROSS for our REDEMPTION. 

“And this day shall be unto you for a MEMORIAL; and ye shall KEEP IT A FEAST to the Lord throughout your generations; ye shall KEEP IT A FEAST by an ORDINANCE for ever . . . 17 And ye shall OBSERVE the FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye OBSERVE this day in your generations by an ORDINANCE for ever . . .24 And ye shall OBSERVE this thing for an ORDINANCE to thee and to thy sons for ever. 25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the LAND which the Lord will GIVE you, according as he hath PROMISED, that ye shall KEEP this SERVICE. 26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, WHAT MEAN YE BY THIS SERVICE? 27 that ye shall say, It is the SACRIFICE of the Lord’s PASSOVER, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and DELIVERED our houses. And the people BOWED the head and WORSHIPPED . . .” Exodus 12:14-28. 

The PASSOVER feast was instituted by God, but first celebrated or observed in Egypt. And it’s done by an act of faith and faithfulness toward God for the deliverance, emancipation and redemption of the Israelites from the horrors and bondages that was in the then Egypt [Hebrews 11:24-29; Exodus 12:1-36]; and to uniquely set apart as a MARKED-out people and to ENACT and AUTHENTICATE His good and goodness toward His people, indicating the deliverance from the bondage of slavery into their promised BLESSEDNESS. 

PASSOVER was a divine contact and ORDINANCE for deliverance, victory, protection, peace, restoration and covenant to set His people free from Egypt, a place of bondage, suffering, death, torture, rigour and absolute hopelessness (Exodus 1:1-22). It was a foreshadow of what Christ has done for us now, as the PASSOVER Lamb sacrifice – crucified – for our REDEMPTION from the clutches and bondage of darkness into His marvellous light (Colossians 1:13-14; Galatians 1:3-5). 

That’s the essence of the communion services that’s been held as often as allowable to be made happen. Jesus’ recall and instituted it again with His disciples. Ensuring that it becomes a MEMORIAL – Memorable. Hence, the PASSOVER is the MEMORIAL of our REDEMPTION. Amen. 

Genuine Bible love can be known. The outworking of genuine Bible love that is known is as enjoined in this Scripture: 

“By this we KNOW love, because He LAID down His life for us. And we also ought to LAY down our lives for the brethren” 1 John 3:16. 

“This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 GREATER love hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” John 15:12-14. 

PASSOVER is expressing the genuine Bible LOVE – Laying your life down for the good of others as Jesus did. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. FOR EVEN CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR US: 8 therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8. 

“Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the PASSOVER must be killed. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat. 9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. 11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the PASSOVER with my disciples? 12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the Passover. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer: 16 for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 for I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is MY BODY which is given for you: this do in REMEMBRANCE of me. 20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the NEW TESTAMENT in MY BLOOD, which is shed for you” Luke 22:7-20. 

“By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter; 25 choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; 26 esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. 27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. 28 THROUGH FAITH HE KEPT THE PASSOVER, AND THE SPRINKLING OF BLOOD, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. 29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned” Exodus 11:24-29. 

Further Scriptural Reading Têxt.: Exodus 12:14-28.; Acts 12:1-4; 1 Corinthians 10:16-18; 1 Corinthians 5:6-8; 1 Peter 1:18-21. 

SUMMARY: 

The message is a reflection on the significance of the Passover and its connection to the redemption of believers in Christ Jesus. It highlights the importance of remembering and commemorating the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which has brought redemption and deliverance to humanity. 

Key Points: 

  1. Passover: a memorial of redemption: The Passover is a memorial of God’s deliverance of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, and it foreshadows the redemption of believers in Christ Jesus (Exodus 12:14-28).
  2. Jesus Christ: our Passover Lamb: Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of the Passover Lamb, sacrificed for our redemption from sin and its bondage (1 Corinthians 5:6-8).
  3. Redemption is a done deed: Our redemption is a done deed, and we are called to remember and commemorate it (Galatians 6:13-16).
  4. New creation in Christ: Believers are a new creation in Christ, and our redemption is a demonstration of God’s love and goodness (2 Corinthians 5:17-19).
  5. Genuine Bible love: Genuine Bible love is demonstrated by laying down one’s life for others, as Jesus did for us (1 John 3:16, John 15:12-14). 

Scriptural Emphases: 

  • “Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us” (1 Corinthians 5:7). 
  • “This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me” (Luke 22:19). 
  • “By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us” (1 John 3:16). 

Call to Action: 

Believers are encouraged to: 

  • Remember and commemorate the Passover and Jesus’ sacrifice for our redemption. 
  • Lay down their lives for others, demonstrating genuine Bible love. 
  • Celebrate and observe the Lord’s Supper, remembering Jesus’ sacrifice and redemption. 
  • Live as a new creation in Christ, reflecting God’s love and goodness.

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION

By Leave a Comment

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION: BY ENGAGING ONLY ON THE “GOOD FIGHT” OF FAITH! 

“FIGHT the good FIGHT OF FAITH, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses” 1 Timothy 6:12. 

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus is WORTH ALL THE FIGHT to ensure your DOMINON IN REDEMPTION. When I talk of GOOD FAITH, I’m not referring to demonic or satanic consciousness. I’m talking about taking your STAND on who you ARE in Christ Jesus – knowing Christ Jesus is our REDEEMER, giving you access, rights, and privileges to reign in DOMINON – where the enemy and cohorts has no authority over you. Hence Proverbs 24:10 says: 

“If thou FAINT in the DAY of ADVERSITY, thy STRENGTH is SMALL” Proverbs 24:10. 

When life throws ADVERSITIES – job loss, business closure, relationship uncertainty, sickness, marriage, children, financial struggles, career setbacks… How you handle them defines your trajectory – forward, backward, or stuck. So, WHAT DO YOU DO? 

WHAT YOU DO MATTERS – IT’S THE “FIGHT OF FAITH” – TO REIGN IN DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. 

I WANT YOU TO KNOW – THAT IT’S ALL ABOUT YOUR ‘FAITH” – THAT THE ENEMY AND COHORTS ARE AFTER AND NOT THE EVENTS AND HAPPENING IN YOUR LIFE. 

The enemy and cohorts knows if they can SUCCEED in getting you OFF your ‘FAITH’ – that’s your trust and dependence on God’s grace and absolute providence in Christ Jesus – they will not only ruin you, if you give them permission by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, they will also ruin all who God had orchestrated you to be His vessel of use, to extend His BLESSEDNESS to them; for the ENEMY and COHORTS knows, that when you SUCCEED in achieving God’s intended PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in doing life and living godly by FAITH, others will be beneficiaries too. 

The enemy tried to destroy everything about our BELOVED JOB, but couldn’t crush his FAITH, and JOB by his FIGHT of FAITH for his FAITH, was able to come back far better off while declaring in the cause and course of his challenges – “I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVES, AND HE IS ABLE TO SAVE ME EVEN IN THIS FIGHT OF FAITH” (paraphrased).  

“For I KNOW that my REDEEMER liveth, and that he shall STAND at the latter day upon the earth” Job 19:25. 

The ENEMY and COHORTS tried it on Christ too; they were eventually and completely crushed and lost the battle of the FAITH as it’s written: 

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE of this WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30. 

“Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES of this WORLD, that come to NOUGHT: 7 but we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which none of the PRINCES of this WORLD knew: for had they known it, they would not have CRUCIFIED the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8. 

And I know for sure the enemy and cohorts can’t succeed with you except you let them – giving them the needed permission to hurt you and your FAITH especially – by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. 

Therefore, rise up, FIGHT the GOOD FIGHT of FAITH in Christ by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges, for your FAITH is worth FIGHTING for because your destiny and that of others depends on it; don’t just give up or backslide over momentary lack – because I know you can, and will come back better – deal with life through FAITH and PATIENCE – Hebrews 6:11-12; for you can win wholly, faithfully, triumphantly, victoriously, graciously, and gracefully when you stand insured and assured of your FAITH in God’s unwavering ability in you and through you by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. That’s all you need now, today and always. 

NEVER GIVE THE ENEMY AND COHORTS THE OXYGEN THEY CRAVE – IN ORDER NOT TO HURT YOU IN YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD  

Therefore, don’t sit back or stay aloof, because the enemy and cohorts are envious of your worth and greatness, hence their intent. So, FIGHT! FIGHT!! and FIGHT!!! By ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus. 

Don’t give up, or give in, I challenge you today. YOUR FAITH IS WORTH ALL THE FIGHT IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN. I pray God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS abound with you, in life and grace, in every way in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Have a blessed and awesome day. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“This CHARGE I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a GOOD WARFARE; 19 HOLDING FAITH, and a GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having PUT AWAY CONCERNING FAITH have made SHIPWRECK: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20. 

“For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT, I have FINISHED my COURSE, I have KEPT the FAITH: 8 henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing” 2 Timothy 4:6-8. 

“The THIEF COMETH not, but for to STEAL, and to KILL, and to DESTROY: I AM COME that they might have LIFE, and that they might have it more ABUNDANTLY” John 10:10. 

“. . . 25 For I know that my REDEEMER liveth, and that he shall STAND at the latter day upon the earth. . .” Job 19:1-29. 

“. . . And the Lord TURNED the captivity of Job, when he PRAYED for his friends: also the Lord gave Job TWICE as much as he had before. 11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold. 12 So the Lord BLESSED THE LATTER END of Job MORE THAN HIS BEGINNING . . . 16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations. 17 So Job died, BEING OLD AND FULL OF DAYS” Job 42:10-17. 

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises the importance of standing firm in one’s faith in Christ Jesus, especially during times of adversity. It’s about ensuring one’s dominion in redemption by engaging in the “good fight” of faith (1 Timothy 6:12). The enemy and cohorts are after one’s faith, trying to get them off track, which can ruin not only the individual but also those God intended to bless through them. 

Key points: 

  • Adversities will come, but how one handles them defines their trajectory (Proverbs 24:10). 
  • The enemy can’t succeed if one doesn’t give them permission by not ensuring their dominion in redemption.  
  • Faith in Christ Jesus is worth fighting for; it’s about standing on who one is in Christ and reigning in dominion (John 14:30, 1 Corinthians 2:6-8).  
  • Examples of Job and Christ were given to illustrate the importance of faith and standing firm (Job 19:25, Job 42:10-17). 
  • One should not give up or backslide; instead, fight the good fight of faith with patience and assurance in God’s ability (Hebrews 6:11-12). 

The message encourages readers to rise up, ensure their dominion in redemption, and not let the enemy win. It ends with a prayer for God’s grace and blessedness to abound.

IN YOUR REDEMPTION DEED OF RIGHTS

By Leave a Comment

IN YOUR REDEMPTION DEED OF RIGHTS: ENSURE YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSION IN CHRIST JESUS! 

Beloved of God, it’s imperative that in your redemption deed of rights, you ensure you possess your possession, living godly in Christ Jesus stead. This happens when your faith communicates effectively to life’s matters – earthly or heavenly – in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION (COMMUNICATION) of our FAITH without WAVERING; for He is FAITHFUL that promised” Hebrews 10:23 Emphasis Mine.. 

Beloved in Christ, enough of complain-hallelujah life style over these years, it’s your time in Christ Jesus to enact, ensure and actualise the essence of being born of God. 

There’s a DEED OF RIGHTS IN REDEMPTION with your name ENGRAVED in it by the virtue of being born of God in Christ Jesus, but it’s your prerogative to ask, seek and knock after it to make it a reality for you. 

You need to know also that your REDEMPTION reality can only be made possible: 

  • FIRSTLY, through the ACKNOWLEDGING of your BILL OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN THE KINGDOM as a result of our Christ Jesus – DONE DEED – for you and all in Him; 
  • And SECONDLY by your UNDERSTANDING of the KNOW-HOW of COMMUNICATING your KNOWN FAITH in Christ Jesus to matters of LIFE and GODLINESS in ALL about living life even as it’s written: 

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine). 

Until you ENSURE, ENACT, and ACTUALISE REDEMPTION’s essence in you, your FAITH COMMUNICATION to life matters will struggle, feel strange, tasking, and burdensome – contrary to 1 John 5:3. That’s why there are many ‘AMEN’, ‘HALLELUJA’ and ‘BLESS ME’ Christians, despite their efforts in Church, fasting, prayers, traditions. But this OUGHT not to be so in Christ, REDEMPTION’s essence should impact EVERY AREA of life. 

You APPROPRIATE and ENACT through PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of what God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD via the HOLY SPIRIT. 

Here are REASONS to seek KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of God’s DONE DEED for you in Christ Jesus, to APPROPRIATE your REDEMPTION into reality as a POSSESSION: 

  • That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32. 
  • That knowledge will deliver you from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29. 
  • That your dominion in life is a product of your knowledge – Daniel 11:32. 
  • That a man’s value for knowledge determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6. 
  • That knowledge is power, freedom and dominion, while religion is imprisonment and bondage – Luke 11:52.  
  • That the grace that determines our status is a function of knowledge – 2 Peter 1:2.  
  • That when you run after knowledge, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33. 
  • That People who hate knowledge can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15. 
  • That age is not equal to knowledge and should not be taken for knowledge – Job. 32:7-9. 
  • If your thoughts are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.  
  • When you add a little MORE knowledge to your daily life, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18. 
  • That whatever you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6. 
  • That studying for knowledge is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15. 
  • That the only authentic proof of knowledge is freedom and liberty – John 8:32. 
  • That when you don’t grow in the spirit of knowledge, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18. 
  • That those who seek to know men, don’t know God; when you seek to know God, people will seek to know you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24. 
  • That your knowledge of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.  
  • And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured knowledge – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6 (Emphasis mine).

Key points include: 

  • Believers have a Deed of Rights in Redemption but must ensure they possess their possession in Christ. 
  • Effective faith communication is key to enacting redemption’s essence in life. 
  • Ignorance of God’s Word and promises can lead to a burdensome Christian life, while knowledge and understanding bring freedom and dominion.  
  • Reasons to seek knowledge and understanding include: 
  • Freedom from scriptural errors and life’s challenges (Matthew 22:29) 
  • Dominion in life (Daniel 11:32) 
  • Power, freedom, and dominion (John 8:32, Luke 11:52) 
  • Goodness and mercy (Proverbs 1:22, 29-33) 
  • Heaven’s favor (Proverbs 13:15, Hosea 4:6, Isaiah 5:13-15) 
  • Updated thoughts and a better life (Proverbs 24:5, Proverbs 4:18)  

The message encourages believers to prioritise knowledge and understanding of God’s Word, acknowledging their redemption rights, and communicating faith effectively to experience the reality of redemption in every area of life. 

Scriptural references support the importance of knowledge, faith, and understanding in experiencing redemption essence.

HOLDING FORTH UNTO FAITH 

By Leave a Comment

HOLDING FORTH UNTO FAITH: FOR YOU ARE – “GOD’S BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR”! 

There are LIFE BATTLES, knowingly or unknowingly. And these BATTLES are real for everyone. But the greatest life battle is the BATTLE for your FAITH in Christ. And there’s an ENEMY and CHORTS fighting daily, going to and fro, roaring aggressively, looking for any avenue to devour your FAITH in Christ. 

You need to know the ENEMY and COHORTS know that if they get hold of your FAITH, EVERYTHING about you will be DEVOURED. 

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus is the VICTORY and TRIUMPH that overcomes the WORLD’S SYSTEM – that’s controlled by the ENEMY and COHORTS against your wellbeing.  When they attack, their PRIMARY aim isn’t your MONEY, FAMILY, CAREER, RELATIONSHIP, BUSINESS or MINISTRY. It’s to make you DENY, GIVE UP, and QUIT on your FAITH. Why? because your FAITH is the divinely instilled DEFAULT MECHANISM that ENACTS your REDEMPTION, letting you live life in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. 

We are enjoined to HOLD ON FAITH to FIGHT a GOOD FIGHT of FAITH in life BATTLES. So, BUILD UP your most Holy FAITH in Christ Jesus by constantly affirming and enacting your GRACE stands in REDEMPTION. It’s a way to PREPARE for daily CHALLENGES and BATTLES. By effectually exercising your rights and privileges in Christ Jesus, you will rule and reign in DOMINION IN REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. 9 But resist him, be firm in your faith [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.] 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]” 1 Peter 5:8-10 (Amplified). 

“The HORSE is PREPARED for the DAY of BATTLE, But deliverance and victory belong to the Lord” Proverbs 21:31. 

“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest WAR a GOOD WARFARE; 19 HOLDING FAITH, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning FAITH have made shipwreck: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20. 

“FIGHT the GOOD FIGHT of FAITH, lay HOLD on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses” 1 Timothy 6:12. 

“For everyone born of God is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world; and this is the VICTORY that has CONQUERED and OVERCOME the world—our [continuing, persistent] FAITH [in Jesus the Son of God]. 5 Who is the one who is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world? It is the one who believes and recognizes the fact that Jesus is the Son of God” 1 John 5:4-5 (Amplified).

Key points include: 

  • Life battles are real, but the greatest battle is for faith in Christ. 
  • The enemy targets faith, knowing that if it’s devoured, everything else will be lost. 
  • Faith in Christ is the victory that overcomes the world’s system. 
  • The enemy’s attacks on money, family, career, etc., are secondary; the primary aim is to make believers deny, give up, or quit their faith. 
  • Believers are enjoined to hold on to faith, build it up, and exercise their rights and privileges in Christ to reign in dominion. 
  • Scriptural references (1 Peter 5:8-10, Proverbs 21:31, 1 Timothy 1:18-20, etc.) support the importance of faith, vigilance, and perseverance in spiritual battles. 

The message encourages readers to prioritise faith, prepare for battles, and trust in God’s deliverance and victory.

YOUR REDEMPTION TANGIBILITY 

By Leave a Comment

YOUR REDEMPTION TANGIBILITY: IT’S YOU TO HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING BY YOUR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT! 

“That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6. 

It’s your understanding of what God has done IN you, WITH you, and FOR you in Christ Jesus that makes your FAITH effectual – productive and result oriented – in all aspects of life and godly living. I know a man’s ignorance is his own mountain, but knowledge and understanding of the truth sets him free, because your dominion, freedom and effectual faith are products of your knowledge. 

It’s not about how much or how long you fast, sleep in church, carry the Bible, or the DO’S and DON’TS you practice religiously to meet up with your denominational bylaws, creeds and dogmas. It’s about how much you KNOW and UNDERSTAND the GOOD in REDEMPTION that God has DONE IN you IN Christ Jesus. That’s what makes your FAITH communication EFFECTIVE – productive and result oriented –in all aspects of life 

Your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus is FIRSTLY ACKNOWLEDGING the good God has done in you, and SECONDLY UNDERSTANDING that good. That’s how you APPROPRIATE, ENACT, and MAKE TANGIBLE REDEMPTION – turning spiritual perception into earthly reality. Otherwise, FAITH in Christ won’t COMMUNICATE life but death, becoming a burden and question instead of a VICTORY and TRIUMPH. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“That the communication of thy FAITH may become effectual by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6. 

“We having the same spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore speak” 2 Corinthians 4:13. 

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (UNPRODUCTIVE, OBSCURED, SLOTHFUL SLUGGARD, MEAN)” Proverbs 21:16 (Emphasis Mine). 

“Good UNDERSTANDING giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard (Difficult)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine). 

“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do KNOW their God shall be STRONG, and do EXPLOITS” Daniel 11:32. 

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye CONTINUE in my WORD, then are ye my DISCIPLES indeed; 32 and ye shall KNOW the truth, and the truth shall MAKE you FREE” John 8:31-32. 

“For SIN shall NOT have DOMINION over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace” Romans 6:14. 

Further Scriptural Reading Text: Mark 11:11-14, 20-24; Hebrews 11:1-6. 

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises the importance of understanding and acknowledging God’s redemption in Christ Jesus to experience its tangible benefits in life. It highlights that redemption’s effectiveness depends on recognising the good God has done in you and understanding that good. 

Key points include: 

  • Your faith becomes effectual when you acknowledge and understand God’s work in you, making it productive and result-oriented in all aspects of life.  
  • Ignorance is a hindrance, but knowledge and understanding of the truth set you free, granting dominion and effectual faith. 
  • External religious practices (fasting, church attendance, Bible carrying, do’s and don’ts) aren’t enough; knowing and understanding redemption’s goodness is key. 
  • Acknowledging and understanding God’s good work in you turns spiritual perception into earthly reality, making faith a victory and triumph. 
  • Scriptural references (Philemon 1:6, 2 Corinthians 4:13, Proverbs 21:16, etc.) support the importance of understanding, knowledge, and acknowledging God’s work for a victorious Christian life. 

The message encourages readers to focus on understanding and acknowledging redemption’s goodness to experience its tangible benefits and live a purposeful life in Christ.

ENSURE YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS IN YOUR REDEMPTION BILL OF RIGHTS: ONLY MADE POSSIBLE BY YOUR FAITH COMMUNICATION! 

Beloved in Christ, enough of complain-hallelujah lifestyle over these years, it’s your time in Christ Jesus to enact, ensure and actualise the essence of being born of God.

And this OUGHT not to be so in Christ and for all Christ is to us in Him by REDEMPTION. 

You can only APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of your REDEMPTION in Christ of all that God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU, and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD through the promised given HOLY SPIRIT, supposedly. 

Here are reasons to seek knowledge and understanding of all God DONE DEED for you in Christ Jesus, to appropriate your REDEMPTION into reality as a POSSESSION: 

  • That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises the importance of knowing and understanding your redemption rights in Christ Jesus. It encourages believers to move beyond a “complain-hallelujah lifestyle” and instead, take possession of their possessions in redemption by acknowledging and communicating their faith effectively. 

Key points include: 

  • Your name is engraved in the Bill of Rights in Redemption, but you must ask, seek, and knock to make it a reality. 
  • Redemption is made possible by acknowledging your rights and privileges in the Kingdom (a done deed by Christ) and understanding how to communicate your faith in life matters. 
  • Without this understanding, communicating faith can be a struggle, tasking, and burdensome, contrary to 1 John 5:3. 
  • Personal knowledge and understanding of redemption are crucial to appropriating and enacting it in your life. 
  • The message lists reasons to seek knowledge and understanding of God’s done deed in Christ, including freedom, dominion, power, and effectiveness in life. 
  • Scriptural references support the importance of knowledge, understanding, and communicating faith for a victorious Christian life. 

The message urges believers to value knowledge, grow in understanding, and apply redemption principles to possess their possessions and live a purposeful life in Christ.

DOMINION IN REDEMPTION

By Leave a Comment

DOMINION IN REDEMPTION: IT’S By RESPONDING AND NOT BY REACTING! 

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE of this WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30. 

You are RESPONSIBLE for what you BECOME by how you handle what happens to you in life day by day. You can choose to stand on  your DOMINION rights and privileges in REDEMPTION through Christ Jesus stead, and in RESPONDING to matters with godly living, or you can go about REACTING – complaining, blaming, nagging, etc., thereby walking away from your DOMINION rights and privileges in REDEMPTION, that gives you the enabling to have leverage in an onward and upward trajectory over your challenges and difficulties irrespective of the source and cause. 

KNOW FOR CERTAINTY THAT YOUR RESPONDING MUST BE BY THE WORD – IN THE KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONTEXT – AND NOTHING ELSE AND MORE – OTHERWISE YOU ARE REACTING AND GOD’S WORD BECOMES INOPERATIVE FOR YOU IN THAT CONTEXT. 

Sometimes, someone might’ve brought you down to the ditch or valley you are in right now -maybe to use you for selfish gains or hurt your progress – but YOU must know you are RESPONSIBLE to rise above it.  Don’t stay in REACTING Mode, MOANING, COMPLAINING, NAGGING and even hurting yourself for nothing over the event, with no scriptural progress, just standstill and regrets. Meanwhile,  there’s a lavished opportunity to be an overcomer, triumphant, victorious, and a more than conqueror –  that’s embedded in your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, awaiting you to turn the bad to good, to turn the mess to a message, turn test to testimony, and failure to success. 

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

“This Book of the Law shall not depart from your MOUTH, but you shall MEDITATE in it day and night, that you may OBSERVE to do according to all that is WRITTEN in it. For then YOU will make your way PROSPEROUS, and then YOU will have GOOD SUCCESS “ Joshua 1:8/NKJV 

You can make a great DIFFERENCE in yourself when you choose to RISE UP RESPONSIBLY above your circumstances in grace. RESPONDING to life matters by your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION instead of REACTING is the lifeline to DEMONSTRATE and MAKE your DISTRACTOR wrong, and to BECOME an ACHIEVER in and through the MIDST of any situation that brought or kept you low previously. I know what I am saying, and I pray you get it right too. 

YOU CAN – RESPOND TO GROW FLOWERS OTHERWISE REACT TO GROW WEEDS – IT’S YOUR CHOICE AND YOUR CALL TO MAKE.  

You may not control your opponents’ ATTITUDES and challenges around you, but you are RESPONSIBLE for your ATTITUDES that define your ALTITUDE. Do life with your DOMINON rights and privileges in REDEMPTION, tackling MATTERS effortlessly with God’s word, standing steadfast in Christ Jesus, achieving greatness with God in an effortless condition of His grace and BLESSEDNESS toward your circumstances. 

If you MUST live in DOMINION, I say again, if you MUST live through DOMINION in REDEMPTION, you must be prepared to RESPOND in grace rather than REACT to daily circumstances driven by fleshly DEMANDS. Give no OXYGEN to the ENEMY and COHORTS and circumstances’ demands. Your realm in REDEMPTION is a mystery to all, and I hope and pray you know it for yourself without PREJUDICE, SENTIMENTS and DISSIMULATION.  

 RESPONDING to MATTERS under the sun with your Dominion rights and privileges in REDEMPTION makes you mature, wise, and CALCULATING – like an Eagle to the prey, taking down the ENEMY and Cohorts. You SOAR IN DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, taking circumstances unaware, in grand style. But REACTING makes you cheap, unwise, and vulnerable to circumstances, to the enemy and cohorts’ intent, making you their PREY and VICTIM – which isn’t good for you, when you OUGHT to be soaring. 

Let’s learn from our Lord Jesus’ grand STYLE, WISDOM that brought the devil and cohorts down for our DOMINON IN REDEMPTION – Our Father God offered us His graciousness, endowed and endued us lavishly with the Holy Spirit of promise in Christ Jesus – thereby enabling us to live and walk fully in life and godliness UNRESERVEDLY, UNAPOLOGETICALLY and UNCOMPROMISINGLY. 

“Howbeit we speak WISDOM among them that are PERFECT [MATURE, WHOLE, COMPLETE]: yet not the WISDOM of this world, nor of the PRINCES of this WORLD, that come to NOUGHT: 7 but we speak the WISDOM of God in a MYSTERY , even the HIDDEN WISDOM, which God ORDAINED before the world unto our glory: 8 which NONE of the PRINCES of this world KNEW: for had they KNOWN it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8. 

“Such hope [in God’s PROMISES] never DISAPPOINTS us, because God’s LOVE has been abundantly POURED [LAVISHED] out within our HEARTS [HUMAN SPIRIT] through the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN [ENDOWED, ENDUED] to us” Romans 5:5. 

RESPONDING IS A MAJOR ACT TO WINNING WAYS IN LIFE – NOT BY REACTING TO PROVE A POINT. RESPONDING IS BY THE WORD – IN KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONTEXT – AND NOTHING ELSE, NOTHING MORE. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28. 

“Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: 9 knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more DOMINION over him. 10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. 11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 12. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 14 For sin shall NOT have DOMINION over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace” Romans 6:8-14. 

“What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? 5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast CROWNED him with glory and honour. 6 Thou MADEST him to have DOMINION over the WORKS of thy hands; thou hast put all things UNDER his feet: 7 all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; 8 the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas” Psalms 8:4-8. 

“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. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is THE LAMB THAT WAS SLAIN TO RECEIVE POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12. 

“But of him ARE ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31 

“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” Galatians 3:13-14. 

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

“And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come SALVATION, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the POWER of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they OVERCAME him by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB, and by THE WORD of their TESTIMONY; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11. 

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

“In whom we have REDEMPTION through HIS BLOOD, the FORGIVENESS of sins, according to the RICHES of His Grace” Ephesians 1:7. 

“Looking unto Jesus the AUTHOR and FINISHER of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God” Hebrews 12:2. 

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE of this WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30. 

“Howbeit we speak WISDOM among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES of this WORLD, that come to NOUGHT: 7 but we speak the WISDOM of God in a MYSTERY, even the HIDDEN WISDOM, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which none of the PRINCES of this WORLD knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8.

The message emphasises living in DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, highlighting the importance of RESPONDING in grace rather than REACTING to life’s challenges. It encourages believers to rise above circumstances, take responsibility for their attitudes, and exercise their DOMINION rights and privileges in REDEMPTION through Christ Jesus.

  • DOMINION IN REDEMPTION enables turning bad to good, mess to message, test to testimony, and failure to success (Genesis 1:26-28) 
  • Reacting makes one cheap, unwise, and vulnerable, while responding makes one mature, wise, and calculating  
  • Jesus’ grand style and wisdom brought down the devil and cohorts, demonstrating God’s power and wisdom (Hebrews 12:2) 

Key scriptural references: 

  • Genesis 1:26-28 (dominion over creation)

THE PASSOVER – A MEMORIAL OF REDEMPTION 

By Leave a Comment

THE PASSOVER – A MEMORIAL OF REDEMPTION: LET’S THEN CELEBRATE & COMMEMORATE OUR BLESSED REDEMPTION! 

“Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are UNLEAVENED. FOR EVEN CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR US: 8 therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8. 

The PASSOVER – A MEMORIAL OF REDEMPTION, is the very simple reason to CELEBRATE and COMMEMORATE the Crucifixion, Death, Burial, Resurrection, Ascension and Enthronement of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. 

“For though he was CRUCIFIED through weakness, yet he liveth by THE POWER OF GOD. For we also are weak in him, but WE SHALL LIVE WITH HIM BY THE POWER OF GOD toward you” 2 Corinthians 13:4. 

The PASSOVER feast was INSTITUTED by God, but first OBSERVED and Celebrated in Egypt. And it’s done as an act of FAITH and FAITHFULNESS toward God for the deliverance of Israelites and to MARK and ENACT the people of God’s deliverance from the bondage of slavery into their promised BLESSEDNESS. For in redemption, our deliverance is safe and secured in the grace in Christ Jesus stead [Hebrews 11:24-29; Exodus 12:1-36; (Colossians 1:13-14; Ephesians 1:7; Galatians 1:3-5)]. 

PASSOVER was a divine contact and ORDINANCE for deliverance, victory, protection, peace, restoration and covenant to set His people free from Egypt, a place of bondage, suffering, death, torture, rigour and absolute hopelessness [Exodus 1:1-22]. It was a FORESHADOW of what Christ has now done for us, as the PASSOVER Lamb that is sacrifice – CRUCIFIED – for our REDEMPTION from the clutches and bondage of darkness into His marvellous light and the Kingdom of His graciousness and gracefulness. 

“Then came the day of UNLEAVENED BREAD, when the PASSOVER must be KILLED. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the PASSOVER, that we may eat. 9 And they said unto him, where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. 11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the PASSOVER with my disciples? 12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the PASSOVER. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this PASSOVER with you before I suffer: 16 for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 for I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is MY BODY which is given for you: this do in REMEMBRANCE of me. 20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the NEW TESTAMENT in MY BLOOD, which is shed for you” Luke 22:7-20. 

That’s the essence of the COMMUNION services that’s been held as often as allowable to be made happen. Jesus’ recall and instituted it again with His disciples. Ensuring that it becomes a MEMORIAL – Memorable. Hence, the PASSOVER is the MEMORIAL of our REDEMPTION. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD, which taketh away the sin of the world. 30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me . . . 35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples; 36 and looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD! 37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus” John 1:29-30, 35-37. 

“Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. FOR EVEN CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR US: 8 therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” 1 Corinthians 5:6-8. 

“Then came the day of UNLEAVENED BREAD, when the PASSOVER must be KILLED. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the PASSOVER, that we may eat. 9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. 11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the PASSOVER with my disciples? 12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the Passover. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer: 16 for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 for I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is MY BODY which is given for you: this do in REMEMBRANCE of me. 20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the NEW TESTAMENT in MY BLOOD, which is shed for you” Luke 22:7-20. 

Further Scriptural Reading: Exodus 12:14-28. Acts 12:1-4; 1 Corinthians 10:16-18; 1 Corinthians 5:6-8; 1 Peter 1:18-21. 

SUMMARY: 

The Passover is a memorial of redemption, reminding us of Christ’s sacrifice and our deliverance from bondage. God instituted the Passover feast, first observed in Egypt, as an act of faith and faithfulness, marking Israel’s deliverance from slavery. This foreshadowed Christ’s sacrifice as the Passover Lamb, redeeming us from darkness and bondage. 

Key points: 

  • Christ is our Passover Lamb, sacrificed for our redemption (1 Corinthians 5:7) 
  • The Passover represents deliverance, victory, protection, peace, and covenant 
  • Jesus instituted the Communion service, saying, “Do this in remembrance of me” (Luke 22:19) 
  • Believers are to purge old leaven, living with sincerity and truth (1 Corinthians 5:8) 
  • The Passover is a memorial of our redemption, fulfilled in Christ (Exodus 12, Luke 22:7-20) 

The message encourages celebrating and commemorating Christ’s crucifixion, death, burial, resurrection, ascension, and enthronement, reflecting on redemption’s significance.
