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.

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).

SUMMARY: 

The message is a call to believers to hold on to their faith in Christ Jesus, emphasising its importance in overcoming life’s battles and achieving victory. It highlights the enemy’s primary aim to devour faith, which is the divinely instilled mechanism that enacts redemption and enables believers to live in God’s blessedness. 

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.

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 

By Leave a Comment

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. 

There’s a BILL 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 your REDEMPTION reality is made possible FIRSTLY through ACKNOWLEDGING your BILL OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN THE KINGDOM – a DONE DEED by Christ Jesus for you; and SECONDLY by UNDERSTANDING HOW to COMMUNICATE your 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). 

And until you ENSURE, ENACT, and ACTUALISE the essence of REDEMPTION of Christ in you, the COMMUNICATING your FAITH in Christ to life matters will be a struggle, strange, tasking, and burdensome –  contrary to 1 John 5:3. That’s why there are many ‘Amen’, ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Bless me’ Christians despite their efforts in the Church, fasting, prayers and religious practices to make REDEMPTION’s essence real in EVERY AREAS of life. 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. 
  • That knowledge will deliver you from life and scriptural errors, and helps you engage 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 hates 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. 
  • That if your thoughts are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5. 
  • That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, 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. 
  • “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). 

Further Scriptural Reading: Hebrews 6:10-12; Obadiah 1:17; Deuteronomy 1:6-8; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29; Genesis 12:1-3. 

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. 

SUMMARY: 

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. 

Key points include: 

  • RESPONDING is a major act to winning ways in life, not by reacting to prove a point (Joshua 1:8, 2 Corinthians 2:14)  
  • Believers are endowed with the Holy Spirit and equipped to live victoriously, overcoming obstacles (Romans 5:5, John 14:30) 
  • 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) 
  • Joshua 1:8 (meditate on the Word for success) 
  • Romans 5:5 (God’s love poured out through the Holy Spirit) 
  • John 14:30 (Jesus’ response to the prince of this world) 
  • 2 Corinthians 2:14 (triumph in Christ) 
  • Hebrews 12:2 (Jesus, author and finisher of faith) 

The message encourages believers to RESPOND IN GROWTH, not REACT IN DEFEAT.

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.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Seeing ye have PURIFIED your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a PURE heart fervently: 23 BEING BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, BY THE WORD OF GOD, which liveth and abideth for ever. 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: 25 but THE WORD of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is THE WORD which by THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED UNTO YOU” 1 Peter 1:22-25. 

“Giving THANKS unto the Father, which hath made us MEET (QUALIFIED) to be PARTAKERS of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 who hath DELIVERED us from the power of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 for by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 and he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. 19 For it PLEASED the Father that in him should all FULNESS dwell; 20 and, having MADE peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven” Colossians 1:12-20.

BLESSED REDEMPTION

BLESSED REDEMPTION: THE PASSOVER – A MEMORIAL OF 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 is the very simple reason to celebrate and commemorate the crucifixion, death, burial, resurrection, ascension and enthronement of our risen Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. The PASSOVER feast was instituted by God but first celebrated or observed in Egypt. And it’s done as an act of faith and faithfulness towards God for the deliverance of Israelites (Hebrews 11:24-29; Exodus 12:1-36), to MARK and ENACT the people of God’s deliverance from the bondage of slavery into their promised blessing. 

“Now about that time Herod the king stretched out his hand to harass some from the church. 2 Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 3 And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the DAYS OF UNLEAVENED BREAD. 4 So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after PASSOVER” Acts 12:1-5/NKJV. 

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 MEMORIAL – Memorable. Hence, the PASSOVER is the MEMORIAL of our REDEMPTION. Amen. 

Genuine Bible love can be known by its outworking, as seen in Scriptures: 

“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 

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 message explores the significance of the Passover and its connection to Jesus Christ’s sacrifice, emphasising the importance of commemorating His crucifixion, death, burial, resurrection, ascension, and enthronement. 

Key Points: 

  1. Passover: A Memorial of Redemption: The Passover was instituted by God to commemorate Israel’s deliverance from slavery in Egypt (Exodus 12:1-36). It foreshadowed Christ’s sacrifice as the Passover Lamb, securing redemption from sin and bondage (Colossians 1:13-14, Galatians 1:3-5).
  2. Christ, Our Passover: Jesus is the fulfillment of the Passover, sacrificed for our redemption (1 Corinthians 5:6-8). His sacrifice brings deliverance from darkness, sin, and bondage.
  3. Unleavened Bread of Sincerity and Truth: Believers are called to “keep the feast” with unleavened bread, symbolising sincerity and truth, purging malice and wickedness (1 Corinthians 5:8).
  4. Genuine Bible Love: True love is demonstrated by laying down one’s life for others, as Jesus did (1 John 3:16, John 15:12-14). Passover represents this love, calling believers to love and serve others selflessly.
  5. Communion: A Memorial: Jesus instituted communion (Luke 22:7-20) as a memorial of His sacrifice, reminding believers of their redemption and calling them to live in sincerity, truth, and love. 

The message encourages reflection on the significance of Christ’s sacrifice and the call to demonstrate genuine Bible love in daily life.

Your REDEMPTION – A Deed DONE: Jesus PAID it all IN FULL – OF Sin and FOR Sin – at REDEMPTION!

“Giving THANKS unto the Father, which hath made us MEET (QUALIFIED) to be PARTAKERS of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 who hath DELIVERED us from the POWER of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED us into the KINGDOM of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, even the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:12-14. 

I know what it means to be a SINNER, to be FORGIVEN, REDEEMED and ACQUITTED. Set a goal today! God loves and cares about you through Christ Jesus stead.

DOING LIFE BY CHARISMA AND CHARACTER 

By Leave a Comment

DOING LIFE BY CHARISMA AND CHARACTER: IT’S MADE POSSIBLE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT IN REDEMPTION! 

“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, you must REMAIN in Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him]” 1 John 2:27/AMP. 

Being CHARISMATIC is a gracious tool in life and godliness for any especially for the born-again believer of God in Christ Jesus. But one’s CHARACTER is the only vehicle to sustain the CHARISMA in doing life and living godly and to continuously enjoy A MORE THAN CONQUERORS, in our REDEMPTION, in Christ Jesus stead. 

It then means CHARISMA is of no PURPOSE, if one is found wanting in CHARACTER. It makes the whole PURPOSE of being MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION caricatured and laughable. For CHARACTER speaks of ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOUR, INTEGRITY and HONESTY, JUSTICE, TRUSTWORTHY and TRUTH and such like in the Holy Spirit that’s given unto us in redemption. 

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED [LAVISHED, SPREAD] abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us” Romans 5:5/Emphasis Mine. 

In life, most people are most likely to be carried away by CHARISMA, which unfortunately is not sustainable because of time without character. Hence this WISDOM NUGGETS is needful for guidance as I hereby state: 

“The CHARISMA – capacity, talents and the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, enterprise and more, may TAKE you to the TOP, but only INTEGRITY, ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOUR and such like, the essence of CHARACTER, will sustain you there with honour and dignity” 

However, to operate graciously and gracefully in life and godliness – CHARISMA and CHARACTER – are ESSENTIALS to doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, in order to ensure a MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; and the NEED to continuously walk in and by the HOLY SPIRIT is imperative, to APPROPRIATE and ENACT these virtues of CHARISMA and CHARACTER on daily basis. 

The knowing and understanding of these essential virtues indicates these scriptural contexts: 

  • CHARISMA (capacity, productivity and talents) is an act of the GIFTS by the Holy Spirit, written in 1 Corinthians 12:9-12; 1 John 2:20, 27. 
  • CHARACTER (attitude, behaviour, integrity, honesty and truth) is an act of the FRUIT of the Holy Spirit as written in Galatians 5:22-23; Matthew 7:15-20; John 15:1-16. 

The Holy Spirit is the personality that ENABLE God’s GRACE to activate a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER. Therefore, to ensure a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER in life and godliness, you need to be BUILT UP by the Holy Spirit by the WORD of God as in the Holy Writ.  

Thriving in God’s BLESSEDNESS through balancing the essence of CHARISMA And CHARACTER makes doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus a complete Gospel. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“But you, beloved, BUILD yourselves UP on [the foundation of] your most holy faith [continually progress, rise like an EDIFICE higher and higher], pray in the Holy Spirit, 21 and keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously and looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ [which will bring you] to eternal life” Jude 20-21 (Amplified). 

“These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the COMFORTER, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall TEACH you all things, and BRING all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you” John 14:25-26. 

“But the ANOINTING which ye have RECEIVED of him ABIDETH in you, and ye need not that any man TEACH you: but as the same ANOINTING TEACHETH you of all things, and is TRUTH, and is NO LIE, and even as it hath TAUGHT you, ye shall ABIDE in him” 1 John 2:27.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS

By Leave a Comment

MORE THAN CONQUERORS: APPROPRIATE AND ENACT TO RECEIVE YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN REDEMPTION! 

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth . . . 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. 

One gracious and graceful thing God DID FOR US in REDEMPTION by Christ Jesus was to ensure and authentic that we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. Hence, Christ Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE GIFTS to us, as our RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in HIM. 

And Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE to us these REDEMPTION rights and privileges to enable us stay afloat as MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. 

There are Seven  (7) Spiritual blessings and Five (5) Ministerial gifts BLESSEDNESS, which are firstly in the heavenly places, and we are to appropriate and enact them on earth. Today, we can virtually see the five in manifestation and operation, but there’s a struggle of the seven, in the Believers day to day living. But Why? 

When you watch some ACTS and LISTEN to the use of the WORD in the cause of most PRAYERS, TEACHING and PREACHING, you wonder if indeed some people know what God has given them, which on their part would only require ACCEPTANCE with THANKSGIVING fora Life of Gratitude, to help one APPROPRIATE and ENACT it into REALITY effortlessly and without sweat. 

In life, when you are given something, say a gift, you receive it with acceptance and with thanksgiving. You don’t go about ASKING again and again for what’s already GIVEN to you. Unfortunately, that’s what most Believers do in PRAYERS, and go further, even in their FASTING galore to measure spirituality – instead of RECEIVING and GIVING THANKS to God the Father in the name of Jesus, they go about ASKING and ASKING and ASKING . . . Instead of them to see the need to maintain a heart of GRATITUDE as the main ATTITUDE, in which they will then enhance their ALTITUDE in life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead in God’s BLESSEDNESS. 

Most times religious obligations, traditions, oblations and bye-laws dogmas have kept us in a particular routine with no substance that can do us any good in Christ. We FAST and PRAY for the same thing and stay in the same act and process just because it seems good religiously and to our sentiments and sensual feelings, even when it’s obvious, we are acting and praying AMISS and in ERRORS. That’s not the Gospel of God in our Redemption in Christ Jesus stead; and as such, we can’t APPROPRIATE and ENACT our rights and privileges WHOLLY and live MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. 

Therefore, it’s your time to express with RECEIVING, and a life of GRATITUDE your rights and privileges in these seven (7) key REDEMPTION DONE DEED for us in Christ Jesus stead.

THESE ARE: 

  • POWER (Authority) – In place of fear, oppression, intimidation etc. (Luke 10:19; 2 Timothy 1:7 etc).
