HAVE FAITH IN GOD

June 2, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

HAVE FAITH IN GOD: DARE TO ACT ON IT ACCORDINGLY!

FOR YOU ARE GIVEN THE MEASURE OF FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS – DARE TO ACT ON IT ACCORDINGLY TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GRACE.

God in His grace in Christ Jesus, has ACCORDINGLY dealt to you THE MEASURE of FAITH to enable you BECOME in Him. By the article “THE” measure and not “A” measure as used in Romans 12:3 and Ephesians 4:7 thus indicates the leverage. In other words, THE measure of FAITH you need to DEAL measurably with the MOUNTAIN, VALLEY, CROOKED ROAD and ROUGH PLACES you are facing right now or later is readily within you. Dare to BELIEVE and act on it accordingly and then BECOME what you BELIEVE. Faith is ACTIVE and not PASSIVE. BELIEVE is Passive and it’s to conceive the WORD for FAITH to act upon. FAITH then is acting on what you BELIEVE of God’s WORD accordingly and correspondingly.

Therefore, stop seeking for the MIRACLE that is already within your reach. For you’ve been GIVEN the enabling GRACE to BECOME ACCORDING to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ Jesus. Amen.

BE BLESSED.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, ACCORDING as God hath DEALT to every man THE MEASURE of FAITH” Romans 12:3.

“But unto EVERY ONE of us is GIVEN GRACE ACCORDING to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7.

“And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, HAVE MERCY ON US. 28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe Ye That I Am Able To Do This? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU” Matthew 9:27-29.

“And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry: 13 and seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it . . . 20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall SAY UNTO THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not DOUBT IN HIS HEART, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall HAVE whatsoever he saith. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things SOEVER ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall HAVE them” Mark 11:12-14, 20-24.

“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. 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 10:8-13.

“The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, YE HAVE DWELT LONG ENOUGH IN THIS MOUNT: 7 TURN YOU, AND TAKE YOUR JOURNEY, AND GO TO THE MOUNT of the Amorites, and UNTO ALL THE PLACES nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. 8 Behold, I HAVE SET THE LAND BEFORE YOU: GO IN AND POSSESS THE LAND which the Lord sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them” Deuteronomy 1:6-8.

“The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and every MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be made LOW: and the CROOKED shall be made STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH places PLAIN: 5 and the GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 40:3-5.

LIFE CHOICES – Dealing With The TRINITY Within

February 24, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

LIFE CHOICES – Dealing With The TRINITY Within – The I, ME, MYSELF: The Three ENEMIES That HINDERS Desired ALTITUDE!

“I therefore so RUN, NOT AS UNCERTAINLY; so FIGHT I, NOT AS ONE THAT BEATETH THE AIR: 27 but I keep UNDER MY BODY (I, ME, MYSELF), and BRING IT INTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I MYSELF should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27 Emphasis Mine.

Every one craves for a high and higher rise in life. There’s the more earnest desire for an onward and upward trajectory irrespective of any, and it’s deepened in every human subconscious thoughts. And higher heights are born in our ATTITUDE for such ALTITUDE we earnestly desired and yearns daily to attain. Unfortunately for some, the enemies within them have created their stunted growth and success and excellence and such like.

The THREE ENEMIES within that needs to be brought under if one must constantly be ahead in LIFE and GODLINESS are these:

** The lust of the flesh

** The lust of the eyes

** The pride of life

These three ENEMIES comes from the trinity within us – I, ME and MYSELF otherwise the Me, Me and Me attitude.

Life is about CHOICE and CHOICES – and to being mindful and to not being mindful, of these three elements, which can make and unmake your worlds of success and fulfillment and excellence, in LIFE and GODLINESS, is worth pondering about. Hence there’s the need to diligently check and guard your being by the Holy Spirit of any of the signs and presence of these elements in the light of the WORD of God.

You are the DECIDED of your ARISING and ALTITUDE, therefore make the wise CHOICE today – to bring your body under; I mean the five SENSES trinity of I, ME, MYSELF, in subjection to the Holy Spirit guide and guard, under the authority and power of the word of God. That’s the only Kingdom cause way to have Dominion, be more than conquerors, an overcomer, be triumphant and victorious in doing life and living godly in every way in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Know full well that your ATTITUDE indicates your CHARACTER. Your CHARACTER indicates your PERSON. And your PERSON, which is born of your ATTITUDE does not only defines you, but it’s what will SUSTAIN you in your desired ALTITUDE when you arrived at it. Hence a no GOOD ATTITUDE means an ILLUSION to your DESIRED ALTITUDE and SUSTAINABILITY in the POSITION of ALTITUDE.

Herein are common and scriptural sayings that are worth pondering – meditating and thinking – through, in cause of doing life in time and in matters of ATTITUDE (CHARACTER and INTEGRITY):

** “People of genius are admired.

People of wealth are envied.

People of power are feared.

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED” – Arthur Friedman

** “Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there” – Chukie MORSI Snr.

** “And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us in the WORD” – Chukie MORSI Snr.

** “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost” – Billy Graham.

MAKE A WISE CHOICE TODAY – YOU ALTITUDE IS WITHIN YOUR REACH BY YOUR ATTITUDE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And then you need to keep a sharp eye out for competent men—men who fear God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE—and appoint them as LEADERS over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten” Exodus 18:21.

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY—meditate on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“I BESEECH (BEG) you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT your BODIES (FIVE SENSES) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your REASONABLE service. 2 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” Romans 12:1-2.

“For though we WALK in the flesh, we do not WAR after the flesh: 4 (for the WEAPONS of our WARFARE are not CARNAL, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 CASTING down IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the OBEDIENCE of Christ; 6 and having in a readiness to REVENGE all DISOBEDIENCE, when your OBEDIENCE is FULFILLED” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

“Love not the world [the worlds mindset], neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of the world” 1 John 2:15-17.

“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep UNDER MY BODY (I, Me, Myself), and BRING IT INTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I MYSELF should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27.

“Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us” 2 Timothy 2:10-12.

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE yourself toward godliness. 8 For BODILY exercise profits a little, but GODLINESS is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe” 1 Timothy 4:7-10.

“That having been JUSTIFIED by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to MAINTAIN good works. These things are GOOD and PROFITABLE to men” Titus 3:7-8.

“But the FRUIT (CHARACTER) of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” Galatians 5:22-25.

GOD’S PROMISE – GOOD SUCCESS AND FULFILMENT

February 18, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

GOD’S PROMISE – GOOD SUCCESS AND FULFILMENT: POSSIBLE THROUGH FAITH AND DILIGENT MEDITATION IN THE WORD!

It is one thing to have SUCCESS or be SUCCESSFUL by whatever factor of measure, but it’s another thing to be FULFILLED in that SUCCESS. And SUCCESS without FULFILMENT is a nightmare. And in this context, it’s about the inner peace and tranquility of the human spirit that nothing else can satisfy but God.

“He has made everything BEAUTIFUL and APPROPRIATE in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human HEART [a mysterious LONGING which NOTHING under the sun can SATISFY, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 Amplified.

There is SUCCESS and there is GOOD SUCCESS. It’s okay to have success or be successful; but to have God’s kind, which is of GOOD SUCCESS, there is the path to follow. The good Success which God offers comes through DILIGENCE in the MEDITATION of the WORD that gives insights and foresights of God in SUCCESS context.

God’s act of good SUCCESS is to bring you to a place of joy, happiness and FULFILMENT within and without. What is SUCCESS without the inner being of joy, happiness and FULFILMENT in Christ Jesus. It is this difference that makes some claims to be successful are false, because their acclaimed SUCCESS ends up with no joy, happiness and FULFILMENT but an INNER state that is suicidal, insecurity and unimaginable vices as a means to satisfy that quest, void and vacuum that only God offers through the MEDITATION in His WORD.

You must also know that in life, SUCCESS is relative. And to have it good, it’s about the illumination and enlightening of God’s WORD through FAITH that overshadows one’s being in that SUCCESS. For INNER peace and tranquility is of God in the human spirit. It is that INNER spirit empowering that gives the overwhelming OUTER joy, happiness and FULFILMENT; otherwise it ends up with a broken spirit despite the SUCCESS, which is destructive. Proverbs 18:14; Proverbs 17:22.

Know for certain that when a Believer is in desperation to be successful outside the SCRIPTURAL terms of reference, it will not be of a clean act or an end. The Scriptures thus indicate that those who are in HASTE to get to SUCCESS outside God underscore the Scriptural context and will not be innocent but will have their hands stain with dirt as it’s written:

“A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: but he that maketh HASTE to be rich SHALL NOT BE INNOCENT. 21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a PIECE of bread that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be rich hath an EVIL eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:20-22.

To experience the good SUCCESS that God offers without stress, sweat, complain, murmuring and such like, you need to plug into the fountain of life; and walk through His path that gives springs of liveliness and livelihood; and are found in DILIGENCE walk in SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION on God’s factor for good SUCCESS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“He that TILLETH his land shall be SATISFIED with bread: but he that followeth VAIN persons is void of understanding” Proverbs 12:11.

“He that TILLETH his land shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN persons shall have POVERTY enough. 20 A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: but he that MAKETH HASTE to be RICH shall not be INNOCENT. 21 To have RESPECT of persons is not good: for a PIECE of bread that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be RICH hath an EVIL eye, and considereth not that POVERTY shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22.

“Be ye STRONG therefore, and let not your HANDS BE WEAK: for your WORK shall be REWARDED” 2 Chronicles 15:7.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt MEDITATE therein day and night, that thou mayest OBSERVE to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt MAKE thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before kings; he shall not STAND before mean men” Proverbs 22:29.

“For with thee is the FOUNTAIN of life: in thy light shall we see light” Psalms 36:9.

“The spirit of a man will SUSTAIN his INFIRMITY; but a WOUNDED spirit who can BEAR?” Proverbs 18:14.

“A MERRY HEART doeth GOOD like a MEDICINE: but a BROKEn spirit DRIETH the BONES” Proverbs 17:22.

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—MEDITATE on these things” Philippians 4:8 NKJV.

“I am convinced and CONFIDENT of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return]” Philippians 1:6 Amplified.

“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest PROSPER and be in HEALTH, even as thy soul PROSPERETH” 3 John 2.

“Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath PLEASURE in the PROSPERITY of his servant” Psalms 35:27.

MONTH FEBRUARY – PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS

February 2, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

MONTH FEBRUARY – PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS: GIVE GOD SOMETHING TO WORK WITH – FOR YOUR PROSPERITY IN HIM!

You are BLESSED of God in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, UNCONDITIONALLY – Ephesians 1:3-6; 2 Peter 1:3-6; 3 John 1:2. And to be BLESSED of God is to be empowered to PROSPER, SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, BECOME and SUCH-LIKE, in life and grace. However, to enact and authenticate the BLESSEDNESS of God in Christ Jesus as regards prospering you and I, there’s the need to have, know and understand the works of your hands. For God will only prosper the Works of your hands to prosper you – meaning – NO WORK OF YOUR HANDS, NO PROSPERITY in Christ Jesus stead. God does no magic for He’s not a magician neither does God do confusion because He’s not confused and not the author of confusion as we see in many places by those seeking a microwave instant answers. Suffix to know that God’s BLESSEDNESS and MIRACLES as some may crave, are the consequences of His WORD – there’s no BUT or IF in it.

I also wants you to know that our uncreated creator and almighty God does HEARS and ANSWERS to PRAYERS – Psalms 65:2; Proverbs 15:29. So, the place of prayers and fasting as an act of fellowship to enhance our relationship with God is imperative, incomprehensible, indescribable and unspeakable in every known and unknown respect with God, by the Holy Spirit, in the BLESSEDNESS of His word, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Matthew 6:5-8, 16-18.

However, as important as the act of PRAYERS and FASTING are – God can only PROSPER you by PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS and not by a mere act of praying and fasting to overshadow our place of being principled in taking responsibility and accountability through diligence and prudence by wisdom, to bring about the reality of our BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. It thus means that:

*GOD DOES NOT PROSPER NOTHING – NEITHER DOES HE PROSPER EMPTINESS OR IDLENESS.

* THERE’S NO PLACE FOR A VACUUM WITH GOD TO PROSPER YOU.

There’s the need for inward look before an outward look as Isaiah 6:1-9 teaches us, to enable an individual to have a profound insights and foresight trajectory to their place in life and grace with God in Christ Jesus stead. For an inward discovery will definitely give an outward recovery no matter how much you think that you have elapsed with time. God is always on time with us and never late in His purpose to work out for our good and goodness. Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10; Philippians 1:6.

That we are born of God, blessed of God, chosen of God, predestinated of God and such like in our REDEMPTION, doesn’t give the rights and privileges of laziness, slothfulness and idleness in the kingdom cause of our God or living in a WISHY-WASHY lifestyle. Ephesians 1:3-6; 2 Peter 1:2-4; 3 John 1:2.

Just know for the record that God doesn’t prosper nothing and God doesn’t prosper laziness and God doesn’t prosper a no work in your hands otherwise any such teaching, prophecy, perception, intuition and messages it’s a counterfeit, fake, adulterated and contradictory to the, authority, fullness and authenticity to the graciousness and gracefulness of the WORD of God in all ramifications of doing life and living godly under God, in Christ Jesus stead, by the Holy Spirit. But God will lift any person from poverty and obscurity to prosperity and good success in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Joshua 1:8; 1 Samuel 2:7-9.

Jesus WORK the WORKS of Father God that sent Him and for three and half years after thirty years of preparation in knowing and understanding the works on and of His hands, He PROSPERED by God to fulfill PURPOSE and the CAUSE for which He came to the world, born of a woman as you and I. 1 John 3:8; John 18:37.

Therefore, give God something to work with – TILL YOUR LAND AND WATCH GOD PROSPER YOU ACCORDINGLY. For He PROSPER you by PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that FAVOUR my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be MAGNIFIED, which hath PLEASURE IN THE PROSPERITY of his servant” Psalms 35:27 (Galatians 5:13).

“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. (Psalms 19:14; Romans 10:8-10; Luke 4:22).

“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [spiritually]” 3 John 1:2 Amplified.

“I must WORK THE WORKS of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can WORK” John 9:4.

“He that is FAITHFUL in that which is LEAST is FAITHFUL also in MUCH: and he that is UNJUST in the LEAST is UNJUST also in MUCH. 11 If therefore ye have NOT BEEN FAITHFUL in the unrighteous mammon, who will COMMIT to your TRUST THE TRUE RICHES? 12 And if ye have NOT BEEN FAITHFUL in that which is ANOTHER MAN’S, who shall GIVE you that WHICH IS YOUR OWN?” Luke 16:10-12.

“He BECOMETH POOR THAT DEALETH WITH A SLACK HAND: but the HAND OF THE DILIGENT MAKETH RICH. 5 He that GATHERETH IN SUMMER is a WISE son: but he that SLEEPETH IN HARVEST is a son that CAUSETH SHAME” Proverbs 10:4-5.

“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.

“While the EARTH remaineth, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, and COLD and HEAT, and SUMMER and WINTER, and DAY and NIGHT shall not cease” Genesis 8:22.

“The SLUGGARD will not PLOW by reason of the COLD; therefore shall he BEG in harvest, and have NOTHING” Proverbs 20:4.

“I went by the FIELD of the SLOTHFUL, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding; 31 and, lo, it was ALL GROWN OVER WITH THORNS, and NETTLES had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down. 32 Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction. 33 Yet a little sleep, a LITTLE SLUMBER, a LITTLE FOLDING OF THE HANDS TO SLEEP: 34 so shall thy POVERTY come as one that travelleth; and thy WANT as an armed man” Proverbs 24:30-34.

“GO TO THE ANT, THOU SLUGGARD; consider her ways, and be wise: 7 which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 8 PROVIDETH her meat in the summer, and GATHERETH her food in the harvest. 9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? 10 Yet a little SLEEP, a little SLUMBER, a little FOLDING of the hands to sleep: 11 so shall thy POVERTY come as one that TRAVELLETH, and thy WANT as an armed man” Proverbs 6:6-11.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED US with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN US in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 having PREDESTINATED US unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath MADE US ACCEPTED in the beloved” Ephesians 1:3-6.\

“Grace and peace be MULTIPLIED unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us ALL THINGS that PERTAIN UNTO LIFE AND GODLINESS, through the KNOWLEDGE of him that hath CALLED us to GLORY AND VIRTUE: 4 whereby are GIVEN unto us EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4.

AFD FEBRUARY 2023 EDITION

February 1, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WELCOME TO THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2023 : MONTH OF ENSURING THAT YOU PROSPER BY – “PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS”
“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [spiritually]” 3 John 1:2 Amplified.

A JOB is what you are employed and tutored to do and you can be sacked, retrenched, dismissed and retired even against your will but A WORK is what you are in-built to do and no man can sack, dismiss, retrench, retire you but you and you alone. It is the discovery of the work and your work in you, that makes the difference to make you do things differently; and that enables you to be creative, innovative and initiative by exploring better ways of prospering the work to prosper the you in life and grace without stress and anxiety, murmuring and complaining. By knowing and understanding what your work is all about, then you know your WORTH and how you tend toward an onward and upward trajectory to THRIVE instead of SURVIVE, because it’s within you. THINK ABOUT IT!

When you know you work, the wisdom to prosper the work to prosper you, comes naturally. And the act of faithfulness, diligence, prudence, responsibility and accountability that’s built on principle become natural to you. And knowing and understanding your work and your worth in your worth, will change your perspective of not not blaming others wherever there is setback in the work. We live in a world where people take delight to blame others to in order to create their own narratives and uprising on someone else downfall. Knowing and understanding your work helps you not to be deter by the forces about, no matter the numbers. GIVING UP IS NOT AN OPTION NEITHER DANCING TO THE COMMONLY ACCEPTABLE AN OPTION WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR WORK.

So, if you wants to prosper, take time to do diligence in self discovery of your work and then ensure all it takes to prosper the work that you may prosper along. Your prosperity is in your hand and not in another. The scripture says in Joshua 1:8, it is you that will make your way PROSPEROUS with GOOD SUCCESS, indicating that they are BAD SUCCESS as it’s written:

When you consider your work a business under God as Jesus Christ consider His work, a business under God, you will prosper and increase with wisdom, physique and in favour with God and man.

“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s BUSINESS? . . . 52 And Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM and STATURE, and in FAVOUR with God and man” Luke 2:49, 52.

“I must WORK THE WORKS of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can WORK” John 9:4.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY, INTEGRITY); he shall not STAND before MEAN (UNPRODUCTIVE, OBSCURED) men” Proverbs 22:29.

And to do business with your work, you have to as a matter of principle to be DILIGENT. And DILIGENCE is not just about hardworking, but about being smart, steadily steady and consistently consistent in FAITH, with a set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in focus, THRIVING to obtain an effectual and productive result. The otherwise is to be slacked of the work to attract failings and failures instead of prosperity and good success as written:

When you DILIGENTLY TILL YOUR LAND – your WORK through innovating exploring creating and initiating, there will be PLENTY of bread to sort you out in life and make you a vessel of blessings to others. To TILL is to CULTIVATE – which means, to PLOW, SOW or PLANT and RAISE or PRODUCE. And to ensure that you till the work – you cultivate by plowing on the work and planting a SEED or CROP or investing say TIME, FINANCE, EFFORT (mental and or physical exertion) and other necessary material to NURTURE that endeavour untill there’s a product – effect or result.

“He that TILLETH HIS LAND shall be satisfied with bread: but he that FOLLOWETH VAIN persons is void of understanding” Proverbs 12:11.

When you are consistently consistent in a steady spirit and faith in that which you set your hearts to do, you will never be disappointed. That’s the spirit of DILIGENCE. It’s REWARDING and EMPOWERING.

“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.

It’s too early to PLAY the LAZY, SLOTHFUL and SLUGGARD card as a fool. It’s time to INITIATE, CREATE, INNOVATE and EXPLORE all the necessary possibilities in the work set plan, purpose and pursuit. And DILIGENCE makes it all POSSIBLE.

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK.

MONTH FEBRUARY: MONTH OF ENSURING THAT YOU PROSPER BY – “PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS”

“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [spiritually]” 3 John 1:2 Amplified.

When you know you work, the wisdom to prosper the work to prosper you, comes naturally. And the act of faithfulness, diligence, prudence, responsibility and accountability that’s built on principle becomes natural to you. And knowing and understanding your work and your worth in your worth, will change your perspective of not blaming others wherever there is setback in the work. We live in a world where people take delight to blame others to in order to create their own narratives and uprising on someone else downfall. Knowing and understanding your work helps you not to be deter by the forces about, no matter the numbers. GIVING UP IS NOT AN OPTION NEITHER DANCING TO THE COMMONLY ACCEPTABLE AN OPTION WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR WORK.

So, if you want to prosper, take time to do diligence in self-discovery of your work and then ensure all it takes to prosper the work that you may prosper along. Your prosperity is in your hand and not in another. The scripture says in Joshua 1:8, it is you that will make your way PROSPEROUS with GOOD SUCCESS, indicating that they are BAD SUCCESS as it’s written:

When you consider your work a business under God as Jesus Christ consider His work, a business under God, you will prosper and increase with wisdom, physique and in favor with God and man.

“I must WORK THE WORKS of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can WORK” John 9:4.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY, INTEGRITY); he shall not STAND before MEAN (UNPRODUCTIVE, OBSCURED) men” Proverbs 22:29.

When you DILIGENTLY TILL YOUR LAND – your WORK through innovating exploring creating and initiating, there will be PLENTY of bread to sort you out in life and make you a vessel of blessings to others. To TILL is to CULTIVATE – which means, to PLOUGH, SOW or PLANT and RAISE or PRODUCE. And to ensure that you till the work – you cultivate by plowing on the work and planting a SEED or CROP or investing say TIME, FINANCE, EFFORT (mental and or physical exertion) and other necessary material to NURTURE that endeavor until there’s a product – effect or result.

“He that TILLETH HIS LAND shall be satisfied with bread: but he that FOLLOWETH VAIN persons is void of understanding” Proverbs 12:11.

“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.

MAKE DILIGENCE PRACTICE A DEFAULT: IT’S PLEASING, REWARDING AND EMPOWERING!

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY, INTEGRITY); he shall not STAND before MEAN (UNPRODUCTIVE, OBSCURED) men” Proverbs 22:29.

DILIGENCE is not just hardworking but to be smart, steadily steady and consistently consistent in FAITH, with a set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in focus, THRIVING to obtain an effectual and productive result.

When you DILIGENTLY TILL YOUR LAND for example, there will be PLENTY of bread to sort you out in life and make you a vessel of blessings to others. To TILL is to CULTIVATE – which means, to PLOW, SOW or PLANT and RAISE or PRODUCE a crop for example. That’s to say, you don’t just PLOW, but you ensure the PLOW land by planting a SEED or CROP or investing say TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT (mental and or physical exertion), to NURTURE that endeavour untill there’s a product – effect or result.

“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.

It’s too early to PLAY the LAZY, SLOTHFUL and SLUGGARD card as a fool. It’s time to INITIATE, CREATE, INNOVATE and EXPLORE. DILIGENCE makes it all POSSIBLE.
