You ARE The Church

March 21, 2020 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

You ARE The Church: You Are Not Being Closed – It’s Just The Gathering Place Been Shut!

The Scriptures says that wisdom is PROFITABLE to direct. And because not all of us are in the same wave of grace and strength as a Church to withstand robustly some measures, it’s very important that every sacrifice to help especially the young in Faith are considered – hence the building gathering may be considered shut for the time been, the services for the advancement of the Kingdom Causes are not shut. It’s not a weakening but a wise sense to flourish all.

For Apostle Paul did say, for the WEAK I became WEAK to make them grow together as others to be strong – that’s what a good shepherd of the flocks does. And to the strong, I do all I can to keep them strengthen he said. As we take care for the Sheep, the Lambs who are most vulnerable can’t be forgotten as part of this journey of LIFE and GRACE in the Kingdom Causes of our God to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay.

For we are the Church being built of the Father God in our Lord Christ Jesus by the Word through prayers in the empowering of the Holy Spirit; as such we the Church are not the structurally and architecturally building; hence as a charismatic and dynamic body, we can adapt with the changes to advance the Kingdom Causes of our God as we keep the enemy and cohorts at bay through this period until the world present predicament come to a hold at least.

As Moses and His leadership was able to take along the mobile Church in the wilderness to the promised land of grace in spite of the ups and downs, may every Pastoral leadership I pray, will by God’s wisdom takes God’s people under their Shepherding to the places of stability, strength and counsel in LIFE and GODLINESS during this challenging and difficult times of our Health and Economic life beeing tested again WORLD wide.

The Churches leadership can use the services of the home cell groups or and social media streamlining platforms or and recorded videos and or Audio and video formats to transmit the Word to keep the Church services alive and engaged gracefully and graciously in knowledge and understanding without disruptions. More so, using the telephone lines as timeless avenues for counselling and prayers where needed in cause of channelling cares.

May I make this profound note for everyone to know that during the cause and course of this process that the dynamics in which we go about doing and running Church services will be changing and denominational boundary and limitations will be broken. So get ready to wise up from the limited bonds and conditions you may have build yourself all these while.

Its my prayers that as Pastoral leadership team open up the more to the Holy Spirit, there will be absolute update to lead the flocks of God unhindered in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus stead.

“We then that are STRONG ought to bear the INFIRMITIES of the WEAK, and not to please ourselves. 2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to EDIFICATION. 3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me” Romans 15:1-3.

PASTORAL MINISTRY

June 26, 2019 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

PASTORAL MINISTRY: It’s A SHEPHERD & SHEPHERDING Ministerial Calling!

You are either CALLED or NOT. Everyone CALLED is a MESSENGER. And every MESSENGER is GIVEN a SPECIFIC and SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT with a MESSAGE to FEED the FLOCKS – God’s own Heritage – with the needed KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING towards God and His Christ – John 17:3/Jeremiah 3:15.

Those NOT CALLED, are not MESSENGERS but HIRELING – Thieves and Robbers – John 10:8, 12-13. And with such there is NO MESSAGE nor any specific given assignment of God but that of their self indulgence, gratification, men applaud and egotism under the influence of satanic/demonic and cohorts mission. This is the reason for – Adulteration, Schism, Bewitching, Robbery, Dogmas, Sorcery, Falsehoods, Confusion and such likes in the body Ministry of the Gospel – Philippians 1:15-18.

These sets of self-made up called Pastors, are full of fables, philosophy of men, endless genealogies, vain jangling, teachers of idealism and realism, denominational made up creeds, man-made tradition and dogmas that leads people to further bandages and hence makes God’s WORD of no effect in the Gospel.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

“The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 2 FEED the FLOCK of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for FILTHY LUCRE, but of a READY MIND; 3 neither as being lords over God’s HERITAGE, but being ENSAMPLES to the FLOCK. 4 And when the CHIEF SHEPHERD shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away” 1 Peter 5:1-4.

“I am the GOOD SHEPHERD: the GOOD shepherd giveth his life for the SHEEP” John 10:11.

“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that GREAT SHEPHERD of the SHEEP, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Hebrews 13:20-21.

God’s PASTORAL Set-Man

God’s PASTORAL Set-Man: Feed the SHEEP of God with KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING!

In this age of multifarious and multi-various TELEVISION, RADIO and SOCIAL media platforms – you read, hear and watch all sorts of INFORMATION. Sometimes you wonder from which pit of hell are some of the stuffs coming from.

Some people have twisted the Holy Scriptures to appeal to denominational dogmas, creed, traditions and oblations, while some are not fully explained in order to appeal to certain groups of people’s sentiments and bye-laws and while others are deliberately made to create havoc in the Churches of Christ to appeal to popular opinions as Apostle Paul will say in all these as enjoined in Philippians 1:15-18
“SOME indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and SOME also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not SINCERELY, supposing to ADD AFFLICTION to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, WHETHER IN PRETENCE, OR IN TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

It’s a high TIME for God’s precious PEOPLE to truly CRAVE for genuine KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of God’s precious WORD of LIFE in all sincerity in the midst of the FALSEHOOD, FAKE NEWS, ADULTERATED and COUNTERFEIT that runs and tends to rule in the various MULTIMEDIA platforms in our today worlds.

Therefore I say:
** Do you belong to an assembly or denomination where the fellowship of brethren and worship of God in Christ Jesus takes place? Ensure you BELONG and not a SPIRITUAL HARLOTS runing from Church to Church. Ensure you belong THERE, and is the place where you are FEED with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of your God in Christ Jesus as the Berean Christians, and not with gimmicks, philosophy, traditions, dogmas, oblations, creed, bye-laws and trash, else you will be as guilty as that so-called-Pastoral Shepherd you listen to for any error.

** Are you a GOSPEL Minister to the congregation of God’s precious people?
Ensure you FEED them to the KNOWLEDGE & UNDERSTANDING of our God in doing life on earth for good, while heavenly mindful; and as a goodwill Minister of grace and Pastoral Shepherd of God’s precious people – and Not A Story Teller, Dubious, Cunning, Crafty Manipulator and or as a Extortionate.

“And I will GIVE you SHEPHERDS according to My heart, who will FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

“Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, SET A MAN over the congregation, 17 who may GO OUT before them and GO IN before them, who may LEAD them out and bring them in, that the congregation of the Lord may not be like SHEEP which have no SHEPHERD.” Numbers 27:16-17.

“Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to BEREA. When they arrived, they went into the SYNAGOGUE of the Jews. 11 These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED THE WORD with all READINESS, and SEARCHED the SCRIPTURES DAILY to find out whether these things were so. 12 Therefore many of them BELIEVED, and also not a few of the Greeks, PROMINENT women as well as men” Acts 17:10-12.

Further Scriptural Meditation – 1 Corinthians 2:1-10. Ephesians 47-16; Colossians 1:9-18; Philippians 1:12-30.

THE EAGLE WAY

March 4, 2015 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THE EAGLE WAY: LEADERSHIP AND MENTORSHIP!

A CHILD is BORN, but a SON is MADE. Sonship is not a MERE GIVEN neither should a CHILD BE BORN FOR NOTHING. The EAGLE WAY – It’s about THE EAGLE and EAGLET, that is, LEADERSHIP and MENTORSHIP. For SUCCESS without a SUCCESSOR is failure in disguise; in same scenario, PROSPERITY without POSTERITY in view is a complete unprecedented disaster in waiting.

The EAGLE unlike the OSTRICH is known for replicating it’s kind, that is, are DILIGENT in making the EAGLET to become another KING of the Sky. It’s a believe that the sky is so wide and broad that there can be no room for clashes and jealousy for any that WILLS DILIGENTLY to BECOME and to MAKE others to be on the sky. That’s the act that makes the Eagle to turn the Eaglet to be king of the sky. This phenomenon is same, whether in family, ministry, business, career, politics and in every endeavour of human acts of doing life.

In the same scenario, Jesus said to Peter, FEED (look well after) my SHEEP and my LAMBS. When the SHEEP are well looked after they give life to the LAMBS; and when the LAMBS are well looked after, they BECOME a SHEEP to give life to another lamb. That’s the process of PRODUCTIVITY and reproducing ones kind BECOMES inevitable. Therefore the EAGLE WAY! is to MAKE CONVERTS into DISCIPLES and to MAKE DISCIPLES to MAKE CONVERTS, that is, to replicates to other Disciples.

Hence LEADERSHIP without appropriate MENTORSHIP destroys the SEED of GREATNESS; and MENTORSHIP without appropriate LEADERSHIP is very dangerous to PRODUCTIVE humanity, and as such to ones plans, purposes and pursuits in any endeavour of doing life.

Stop being a BOSS today! Be a LEADER and start MENTORING. Stop being a headless chicken WANDERING around, locate a LEADER and SUBMIT to MENTORSHIP. Greatness is within your reach, cleave to the wind, the Holy Spirit, He will glide you to greatness if you are willing and obedient.

I PRAY YOU LEARN WISDOM TODAY.
