WELCOME TO MONTH MAY: MONTH OF EXPLORING, EXPRESSING, AND ENACTING – FAITH IN “GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His RIGHTEOUSNESS, and all these things shall be added to you” Matthew 6:33 [Luke 12:31].

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they BEING IGNORANT of God’s righteousness, and seeking to ESTABLISH THEIR OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not submitted to THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to everyone who believes. 5 For Moses writes about THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF THE LAW, “The man who does those things shall live by them.” 6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) 7 or, “ ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto RIGHTEOUSNESS, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no DIFFERENCE between the JEW and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is RICH unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED”. Romans 10:1-13.

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the scepter of Your kingdom. 7 You love RIGHTEOUSNESS and hate wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has ANOINTED You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions” Psalms 45:6-7.

“And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire.” 8 But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the scepter of Your kingdom. 9 You have LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has ANOINTED You with the oil of gladness MORE THAN Your companions” Hebrews 1:7-9/NKJV.

“Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; 17 for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but RIGHTEOUSNESS and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit” Romans 14:16-17/NKJV.

“For I am NOT ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ, for it is THE POWER of God to SALVATION for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For in it THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD is REVEALED from faith to faith; as it is written, “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

“For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS will REIGN in life through the One, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in JUSTIFICATION of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be MADE righteous. 20 Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, 21 so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might REIGN through RIGHTEOUSNESS to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21/NKJV.

“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, and 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.

January 18, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

EXPERIENCING AND ENSURING – THE WORK AND THE EFFECT – OF GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS IN CHRIST JESUS: THESE ARE PEACE – QUIETNESS – ASSURANCE – AND JOY – IN THE HOLY GHOST!

“For the KINGDOM of God is not MEAT and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that in THESE things SERVETH Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:17-18.

The SYNERGY to STAND – being ASSURED – and ENSURED – of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus – is by EXPERIENCING and ENSURING the WORK and the EFFECT of – God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I PERCEIVE that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that feareth him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35.

There’s nothing as beautiful, lively, lovely, gracious and graceful to know that every step of ones journey, there’s God’s ENSURING, ENRICHING and ASSURING INSURANCE – ALL the WAY. This is the graciousness and gracefulness of LIVING IN THE POSSIBILITIES and TRIUMPHANT DEFAULT in the CONSCIOUSNESS of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. For RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS in every way in the kingdom. You can boldly lift up your hands in WORSHIP and FELLOWSHIP unashamed, unafraid, without intimidation and guilt, and genuinely free within because YOU ARE WHAT YOU ARE by God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus and not by yourself and or making. Amen.

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation: but SIN is a reproach (Setback, Mayhem, Shame) to any people” Proverbs 14:34 (Emphasis Mine).

And you need to know, understand and be aware that there’re the WORK of RIGHTEOUSNESS and the EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS in one’s life as a consequence of what Christ Jesus had done in our redemption. And it’s in our living in the CONSCIOUSNESS of the WORK and EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS that enables one’s path to be ORDERED, ENHANCED and have the ASSURED and INSURED POSSIBILITIES and TRIUMPH in all the way through the year with God.

“For he hath MADE him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; THAT WE MIGHT BE MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM” 2 Corinthians 5:21.

So get on the board and follow the PATH that enables you to DO and WORK the RIGHTEOUS ACTS so that you can experience and ensure the fullness of God who is no respecter of persons as men would do. For YOU ARE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus. Amen. You Must Take A STAND Of Being ENSURED AND ASSURED Of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS In CHRIST JESUS.

“But the PATH of the JUST (RIGHTEOUS) is like the LIGHT OF DAWN, That SHINES brighter and brighter until [it REACHES its full strength and glory in] the PERFECT day” Proverbs 4:18/Amplified.

I pray that as you stand on this GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL act of RIGHTEOUSNESS, the Lord God will PERFECT, MATURE, ESTABLISH and SETTLE you in the EXALTED place in Christ Jesus precious name, Amen.

“And the WORK of righteousness shall be PEACE; and the EFFECT of righteousness QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever” Isaiah 32:17.

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation: but SIN is a reproach (Setback, Mayhem, Shame) to any people” Proverbs 14:34 (Emphasis Mine).

“For he hath MADE him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; THAT WE MIGHT BE MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM” 2 Corinthians 5:21.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS shall REIGN in life by one, Jesus Christ . . . 21 that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace REIGN through RIGHTEOUSNESS unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17, 21.

“For Christ is the END of the LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of THE LAW, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of FAITH speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine heart that God hath RAISED him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” Romans 10:4-10

“Every GOOD gift and every PERFECT gift is from ABOVE, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is NO VARIABLENESS, neither SHADOW of turning. 18 Of his OWN will BEGAT he us with the WORD of truth, that we should be a kind of FIRSTFRUITS of his creatures. 19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to hear, SLOW to speak, SLOW to wrath: 20 for the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:17-20.

RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS

January 12, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS: KEEP OFF SIN – IT’S NOT JUST A MISTAKE OR AN ERROR – BUT UNGODLINESS WITH GOD!

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation, But SIN is a REPROACH to ANY people.” Proverbs 14:34.

Some people think that SIN is just a MISTAKE or an ERROR in cause of life doings. It is far more than that; and its presence in ones life can hinder and obstruct the desired PLAN, PURPOSE AND PURSUIT that enables one to SOAR and GLIDE IN POSSIBILITIES.

KNOW THAT SIN IT’S NOT JUST A MISTAKE OR AN ERROR – BUT AN ACT OF UNGODLINESS WITH GOD; AND IT IS THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD THAT EXALTS.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I PERCEIVE that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that FEARETH him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35.

WHAT THEN IS SIN – IT IS SUM IN THESE THREE CATEGORIES AS:

** The human inherit nature, which is an enmity towards God and bore as a result of the fall in ADAM and EVE of Genesis.

** An act of transgression (overstepping) of God’s law, which is – the violation of, want of obedience to, the revealed will of God to mankind.

** A state of Iniquity, Trespass, Lawlessness and or absence of God’s righteousness as fulfilled in Christ Jesus in one’s life.

THE EFFECT OF SIN ARE:

*** POVERTY

*** SICKNESS and DISEASE

*** SPIRITUAL DEATH:

** And SPIRITUAL DEATH is the absence of God or rather the rejection of Christ Jesus – who is God’s REDEMPTION answer to human failing.

** And SPIRITUAL DEATH leads to PHYSICAL DEATH and finally results to ETERNAL DEATH when one ends up eventually not Born of God in Christ Jesus.

However, by REDEMPTION – FAITH on the finished done work of Christ – has JUSTIFIED us and given us ACCESS to a stand in God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS, which enables one to escape from death to life. Wherein one can have ACCESS and live JUSTIFIED in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Now in Christ Jesus, SIN and it’s EFFECT shall have NO MORE DOMINION over you as you SOAR & GLIDE in POSSIBILITIES – that is, over SIN.

“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.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS are passed away; behold, all things are BECOME NEW . . . 21 For he hath MADE Him to be SIN for us, who KNEW NO SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Him” 2 Corinthians 5:15-21.

Live under God’s RIGHTEOUS and RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS in Christ Jesus, that will enable you have dominion and leverage over SIN and SINFUL CONSCIOUSNESS. The knowing and understanding that God LOVES and CARES about you makes a great difference. And when you live under God’s REVERENTIAL FEAR you will detest SIN and pursue RIGHTEOUSNESS. For the reverential fear of God is the beginning of wisdom – the application of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS shall REIGN in life by one, Jesus Christ.) . . . 21 that as SIN hath REIGNED unto death, even so might grace REIGN through RIGHTEOUSNESS unto ETERNAL LIFE by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17, 21.

“For we KNOW him that hath said, VENGEANCE belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall JUDGE his people. 31 It is a FEARFUL thing to FALL into the HANDS of the living God” Hebrews 10:31-32.

If you must glory, only GLORY in Christ Jesus RIGHTEOUSNESS in you – that’s the CONSCIOUSNESS to live the POSSIBILITIES enabling of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation, But SIN is a REPROACH to any people.” Proverbs 14:34.

“For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking [what one likes], but of RIGHTEOUSNESS and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit” Romans 14:17 Amplified.

“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.

“For the WAGES of SIN is DEATH; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 6:23.

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

“For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who knew no SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:21.

“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.

“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN AGAIN, he cannot see the kingdom of God . . . 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God . . . 16 For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is not condemned: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is condemned already, because he hath not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:3, 5, 16-18.

“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.

“For WHATSOEVER is BORN of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? . . . 6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. 7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8 And there are three that BEAR WITNESS IN EARTH, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one” 1 John 5:4-5, 6-8.

MAXIMIZING YOUR NEW DAWN YEAR FOR POSSIBILITIES

January 11, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

MAXIMIZING YOUR NEW DAWN YEAR FOR POSSIBILITIES: GIVE NO OXYGEN TO – THE ENEMY AND COHORTS – AGAINST YOUR FAITH IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“When a MAN’S WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH EVEN HIS ENEMIES to be AT PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“But WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE him: for he that COMETH to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

Do you want to PLEASE God in order for him to cause your enemy and cohorts to be constrained to work together for your good instead of against you? It’s only by FAITH, that we can PLEASE God. That is, by acting correspondingly on what we BELIEVE of Him, in Christ Jesus, according to His WORD. And to PREVAIL over the world and the enemy and cohorts settings against us, we need to set our life to live by FAITH, which is a consequence of God’s WORD, as I have themed for the YEAR by the WORD [Romans 8:28-30; Acts 19:20; Acts 20:32; Hebrews 11:3; 1 John 5:4-5; Romans 10:8-10, 17; Hebrews 4:12-13; 2 Timothy 3:14-17; 2 Timothy 2:15]

IT’S A NEW DAWN – JANUARY/YEAR – YOU NEED TO FLEE FROM WRATH, ANGER AND BITTERNESS – THERE ARE THE AVENUES IN USED BY THE ENEMY AND COHORTS AGAINST YOU, IN LIVING THE FULNESS OF THE POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT WITH GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to hear, SLOW to speak, SLOW to WRATH: 20 For the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:19-20.

“And ALL BARE HIM (JESUS) witness, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of HIS MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22 (Emphasis Mine).

There’s no tangible excuses in the Kingdom for ANY to live in ANGER, WRATH and BITTERNESS. WRATH and BITTERNESS – are the senior cousins and relatives of ANGER (I call it so); and their presence in any doesn’t help to enhance life but to endangers God’s will and purposes in one’s life. Hence, FLEE away from every of it’s appearance about you.

Therefore, to enjoy the grace and BLESSEDNESS of THE POSSIBILITIES default life of God in the fulness, one need to be very much alert and vigilant to watch out and get rid of ANGER along with WRATH and BITTERNESS before it gets hold on you and rob you of God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for your good; that’s if you wants your life to count and account for your good in everyway in Christ Jesus.

The Wisdom Nuggets here is to FLEE, that’s to RUN AWAY (KEEP AT BAY) from every of the form of appearance – the avenues of WRATH, BITTERNESS and ANGER and such like; and to start living the life of RIGHTEOUSNESS (right standing) with God without GUILT, FEAR and SHAME, PREJUDICE, SENTIMENTS and DISSIMULATION; this is in order to ENSURE the HEAVENS is on your side and to ASSURE the POSSIBILITIES in LIVING THE EXALTED LIFE – unhindered in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

You need to RESOLVE to soar and glide over WRATH, BITTERNESS AND ANGER in your day to day life. I pray you God’s grace, wisdom and speed as you make the resolve and solemn decision. I have flagged some images. They worth intentional viewing to ascertain why you must live free from the said avenues and characterization that may be use by the ENEMY and COHORTS against you in your walk of FAITH in Christ Jesus stead.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS FOR MEDITATIONS:

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to hear, SLOW to speak, SLOW to WRATH: 20 For the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:19-20.

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost” Romans 14:17.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT your BODIES (Senses) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your REASONABLE service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING of your mind, that ye may prove what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, will of God . . . 9 Let LOVE be without DISSIMULATION (HYPOCRISY). ABHOR that which is EVIL; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly AFFECTIONED one to another with BROTHERLY LOVE; in HONOUR PREFERRING one another” Romans 12:1-2, 9-10.

“Recompense to no man EVIL for EVIL. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live PEACEABLY with all men. Dearly beloved, AVENGE not yourselves, but rather GIVE PLACE PLACE unto WRATH: for it is written, VENGEANCE is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not OVERCOME of EVIL, but OVERCOME EVIL with GOOD” Romans 12:17-21.

“If thine ENEMY be HUNGRY, GIVE him BREAD to EAT; and if he be THIRSTY, GIVE him WATER to DRINK: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22.

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not RENDERING evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should INHERIT a blessing. 10 For he that will LOVE life, and see GOOD days, let him REFRAIN his TONGUE from evil, and his LIPS that they speak no guile: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:8-12.

DECEMBER – IT’S YOUR FREEDOM CHRISTMAS IN JESUS THE CHRIST

December 7, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER – IT’S YOUR FREEDOM CHRISTMAS IN JESUS THE CHRIST: TO END – THE SIN CONSCIOUSNESS AND TO START UP – THE RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS!

“It was for this FREEDOM that Christ set us FREE [completely liberating us]; therefore keep STANDING firm and do not be SUBJECT again to a YOKE OF SLAVERY [which you once removed] . . . 13 For you, my brothers, were CALLED TO FREEDOM; only DO NOT LET YOUR FREEDOM become an opportunity for the SINFUL NATURE (worldliness, selfishness), but through LOVE SERVE and SEEK the best for one another” Galatians 5:1, 13/Amplified.

No More SIN FISHING – FOR YOU ARE GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS In Christ Jesus. Therefore, know of a TRUTH, that the BIRTH of JESUS the CHRIST is to lay the foundation to the end of SIN CONSCIOUSNESS and to start up the NEW CREATION mandate of RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS in Him as it’s written:

“For Christ is the END of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that BELIEVETH” Romans 10:4.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION: OLD THINGS are PASSED AWAY; behold, all things are BECOME NEW . . . 21 For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who knew no SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17, 21.

It’s time to live FREE by THIS DECEMBER, THIS CHRISTMAS and even now, for your FREEDOM time is come in EMMANUEL Birth, which is – JESUS THE CHRIST. Matthew 16:20.

“Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST”

The REASON for the SEASON of Christmas commemoration and celebration, is all about God’s LOVE in demonstration through the BIRTH of Jesus the Christ. It’s not to activate SIN or make SIN CONSCIOUSNESS, meaning it’s not to make you GUILTY again and again, but to give LOVE and make us receive God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus, because God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus is STRONGER than the stings and pangs of SIN.

Hence the scriptures of Micah says God had buried our inequities under the SEA of forgetfulness and I say to you – NO FISHĪNG or NO MORE FISHING! Meaning, don’t go fishing what God has forgiven you of, no matter the gravity of it. Don’t go feeling guilty with memory of events that had happened. No fishing! This is your freedom Christmas.

“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH INIQUITY, and PASSETH by the TRANSGRESSION of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH not his ANGER for ever, because he DELIGHTEH in MERCY. 19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will SUBDUE our INIQUITIES; and thou wilt cast ALL their SINS into the DEPTHS of the SEA” Micah 7:18-19.

Don’t go and visit place or places of reminder, even if it is called a Church. Go to a place or places where you are WELCOME and RECEIVE; and the LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus is celebrated to enhance your FREEDOM and REDEMPTION in Him.

Living in SIN CONSCIOUSNESS will invite the enemy and that will rob you of your worth and dignity especially during this period of expressing true LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS to fellow men because of Christ.

“For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who knew no SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:21.

Let LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS possess your day, that’s what makes Christmas worth expressing and everything. This CHRISTMAS is about God’s LOVE and your access to FREEDOM in Christ and not to LIVE IN GUILT anymore.

GOD’S GRACE AND BLESSINGS.

“For in Jesus Christ NEITHER CIRCUMCISION AVAILETH ANY THING, NOR UNCIRCUMCISION; but FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been CALLED unto LIBERTY [FREEDOM]; only use not LIBERTY [FREEDOM] for an occasion to the flesh, but by LOVE SERVE one another. 14 For all THE LAW IS FULFILLED IN ONE WORD, even in this; Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself” Galatians 5:6, 13-14.

GOD’S LIGHT ON OUR MIDDAY

October 12, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

GOD’S LIGHT ON OUR MIDDAY: TO SAVE US FROM THE SELF/RELIGIOUS ZEALOT PURPOSE INSTEAD OF GOD’S DIVINE PURPOSE!

“At MIDDAY, O king, I saw in the way a LIGHT from heaven, above the BRIGHTNESS of the sun, SHINING round about me and them which journeyed with me” Acts 26:13.

At MIDDAY, the Sun is at it’s best, brightening and illuminating as many reachable places. In some TIME ZONE’S, you can’t directly look upward on the Sun at MIDDAY because of the intensity of the beam of light that it’s glowing, radiating, reflecting and illuminating upon such places. It was in such atmosphere that God chose to show and beam the superiority and illumination of His divine Sun light of righteousness over humanity Sun beam of light.

It’s time to let God shine His light at Midday on you, especially if you are unsure and thinks you are walking wrongly and doing life on assumptions and or foolishness in where you’ve found yourself at the moment. Sometimes one becomes so zealous and no knowledge, and full of knowledge and no understanding. Hence, no PURPOSEFUL living. It takes wisdom to live PURPOSEFULLY in God’s timeless timeline sphere.

When the zealous/zealot religious Saul had an encounter with divinity at MIDDAY, he became Apostle Paul. It took God’s “SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS” – JESUS CHRIST – to outshine the humanity MIDDAY light on Apostle Paul to take him out of his STAND as a RELIGIOUS zealot purposeful person called Saul, to God’s gracious DIVINE purpose person called Apostle Paul.

“But unto you that FEAR (REVERENTIAL FEAR) my name shall the SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS arise with HEALING in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall” Malachi 4:2 Emphasis Mine.

And there are many today, in their zealousness to please God, have gone about establishing their own purposeful RIGHTEOUS cause and not after God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of Christ Jesus. Know full well this day, that it’s only God’s purpose that can make all things work together for our good in all circumstance of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead.

“For ye have heard of my CONVERSATION in time past in the Jews’ RELIGION, how that beyond measure I PERSECUTED the church of God, and WASTED it: 14 and PROFITED in the Jews’ RELIGION above many my equals in mine own nation, being more EXCEEDINGLY ZEALOUS of the TRADITIONS of my fathers. 15 But when it pleased God, who SEPARATED me from my mother’s womb, and CALLED me by his grace” Galatians 1:13-15.

“Brethren, my heart’s DESIRE and PRAYER to God for Israel is, that they might be SAVED. 2 For I bear them RECORD that they have a ZEAL of God, but NOT ACCORDING to knowledge. 3 For they being IGNORANT of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS, and GOING ABOUT to ESTABLISH their OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not SUBMITTED themselves unto THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God. 4 For CHRIST is the END of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that believeth” Romans 10:1-4.

It’s time to let DIVINITY to SHINE on your earthly affairs if you want to run without sweat and stress. Allowing God’s set “SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS” TIMELESS timeline on your “MIDDAY” TIMED timeline, will ensure you live to fulfill PURPOSE with God in Christ Jesus stead, meaningfully in LIFE and GRACE. Amen.

Get connected to God’s SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS – JESUS CHRIST and all will be well again and again. And all things will turn around at your midday into God’s day in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his Purpose. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of one the free gift came upon all men unto JUSTIFICATION of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be MADE RIGHTEOUS. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. BUT WHERE SIN ABOUNDED, GRACE DID MUCH MORE ABOUND: 21 that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through RIGHTEOUSNESS unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21.

BE ESTABLISHED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

September 18, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

BE ESTABLISHED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS: THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS!

“But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: A SCEPTRE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the sceptre of thy kingdom. 9 Thou hast LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS, and HATED INIQUITY; therefore God, even thy God, hath ANOINTED thee with the OIL of gladness ABOVE THY FELLOWS” Hebrews 1:8-9.

Living by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus, delivers from Religious Dogmas, Bondages, Make-Believe and Man-Made Traditions and such like doctrinal bondages. (Romans 10:4-10; 1 Corinthians 1:30).

Sin does not only makes one cheap, ugly, dirty, filthy and priceless or worthless before God, it reproaches, steals, kills and destroys an individual, family, generation, community and nations. That’s why Satan is likened to it.

But RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is of God in Christ Jesus, makes one to stand before God without shame, fear, guilt and inferior of any form of complexity. It establishes and fortifies individual, family, generation, community and nation. It’s a defence and delivers in the days of life and godly troubles and challenges of any sorts.

Therefore, RECONNECT yourself, family, generation, community and nation back to the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Be BLESSED in EVERYWAY in CHRIST JESUS. AMEN.

“Righteousness EXALTS a nation: but SIN is a REPROACH to any people” Proverbs 14:34.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35.

“The RIGHTEOUSNESS of the upright shall DELIVER them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness” Proverbs 11:6.

“. . . 3 For they being IGNORANT of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS, and going about to establish their own RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not submitted themselves unto the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that believeth . . . 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” Romans 10:1-10.

This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord” Isaiah 54:13-17.

THE QUEST FOR GOD AND HIS KINGDOM

August 16, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THE QUEST FOR GOD AND HIS KINGDOM: HIS KINGDOM IS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE AND JOY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT!

“For the KINGDOM of God is not a matter of EATING and DRINKING [what one likes], but of RIGHTEOUSNESS and PEACE and JOY in the Holy Spirit” Romans 14:17 (Amplified).

The Kingdom of God in course of doing life and living godly in grace – is much more about RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE and JOY in the Holy Spirit than about FOOD and DRINK and PLEASURE as many will crave and even sell their FAITH and conscience to have and possess.

God’s kingdom is of righteousness because the WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is of Christ Jesus and it’s efficacious and fruitful to give the right to stand before God and be emboldened in grace – without shame, fear, unsafe, unsecure, inferiorly and such like as it’s written of the WORK and EFFECT:

“And the WORK of RIGHTEOUSNESS shall be PEACE; and the EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever” Isaiah 32:17.

“And the FRUIT of righteousness is SOWN in PEACE of them that make PEACE” James 3:18.

The WORK to have a righteous STAND with God in Christ Jesus stead gives PEACE and the EFFECT of that righteous STAND gives QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever. What a position to take a stand and enjoy God through life in grace.

“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.

Do ensure that your WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNESS with God leads you to PEACE – meaning, brings about PEACE and the RIGHTEOUS EFFECT eventually gives ASSURANCE and QUIETNESS, and not confusion and schism and hopelessness.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
