CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

By Leave a Comment

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]; IT’S ABOUT LIVING IN THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF KNOWING THAT YOU HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST!  

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that love him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit SEARCHETH all things, yea, the deep things of God . . . 14 But the NATURAL MAN receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are FOOLISHNESS unto him: neither can he KNOW them, because they are SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. 15 But he that is SPIRITUAL JUDGE [EXAMINE] all things, yet he himself is JUDGED [EXAMINE] of no man. 16 For who hath KNOWN THE MIND of the Lord, that he may INSTRUCT him? BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST” 1 Corinthians 2:9-16. 

When Apostle Paul was writing to the mixed multitude Corinthians Church that’s so gifted, as the scripture does indicates that thy lack not behind in spiritual gifting [1 Corinthians 1:7], and yet they were swimming with various vices; he then sensed of their lack of knowledge, and their inability to understand and comprehend spiritual things that they were endowed and endued with to function in the grace. For they were so gifted, but their inability to decipher the spiritual man from the natural man that has been reborn [redeemed] was concerning to him; and more so, they were filled with the Holy Spirit of revelation, which is for them to articulate the mind of God in wisdom – where wisdom is the application of knowledge. It thus means, being gifted without operating in wisdom to bring it forth into a reality  

In 1 Corinthians 2:1-8, he wrote to them as to us of today of the necessity to live by God’s wisdom if we must excel and be exceptional in living above the conscript of the princes of this world in their unwise way of not able to know the mind of God concerning the cross of human redemption until Christ Jesus by the rugged cross of crucifixion SAVED [REDEEMED] us. And in 1 Corinthians 2:9-10, he made known of how the Holy Spirit can reveal to us the mind of God on things about us that no eyes have seen, ears have not heard or neither has entered into the heart of any man knowingly, because of the love for God within us for Him. And Apostle Paul concluded, that by the virtue of our spiritual [reborn] disposition over the natural [unborn] dispositions, we have the MIND of Christ Jesus, to examine and make wise judgement in decisions in the grace over anything. That’s what makes the CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], to take hold of us and make us walk in the wisdom of God that transcends and surpasses the wisdom of this world [1 Corinthians 2:1-8]. For Christ Jesus in us, is the wisdom of God and the power of God [1 Corinthians 1:18-24, 30] to enable us do life and live godly with God’s speed in His stead, in this present world. 

And it’s for the consciousness of making the day to day wise judgement as the reborn of God, we are admonished in 2 Corinthians 13:5-6, to always examine [make self judgement of] ourselves if we are still on track with the MIND of Christ Jesus in our day to day decision, as we do life and live in godliness – except we ARE reprobates [hardened, unexamined, unprincipled], but we ARE not reprobates as Believers of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“EXAMINE yourselves, whether ye be in the FAITH; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is IN you, except ye be REPROBATES? 6 But I trust that ye shall know that we ARE NOT REPROBATES” 2 Corinthians 13:5-6. 

And Apostle Paul was able to X-ray and charge the Philippians Church in Philippians 2:1-11, with a taste of what it means and takes to have the MIND of Christ Jesus in a different perspective and context from the Corinthians Church. He spoke to them and to us of the essence to cultivate – the spirit of consolation, of comfort, of fellowship, of mercies, of oneness, of one mind of humility of respect to esteem others and such like. He likened it to the MIND of Christ Jesus toward God while in humanity, that earned Him the exaltation of the Father God wherein for today and always for all eternity, that at the NAME of Jesus, His NAME becomes ANSWER to all human QUEST; and His NAME is above all names that all mankind must BOW and KNEE to at the mentioning of the name, as He earned from the Father God without controversy. What an attribute. What a priceless tag. What a life to live in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]. That’s what the MIND of Christ Jesus can reproduce in us as we walk in His mind context and default in us – for we have the mind of Christ Jesus as a default in the reborn spirit of our salvation. Make it a living consciousness for you and all about you that are reborn – the New Creation as written: 

“If there be therefore ANY CONSOLATION in Christ, if ANY COMFORT of love, if ANY FELLOWSHIP of the Spirit, if ANY BOWELS AND MERCIES, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be LIKEMINDED, having the same love, being of ONE ACCORD, of ONE MIND. 3. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in LOWLINESS OF MIND let each ESTEEM other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU, WHICH WAS ALSO IN CHRIST JESUS: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he HUMBLED himself, and became OBEDIENT unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly EXALTED Him, and GIVEN Him a NAME which is ABOVE every name: 10 that at the NAME of Jesus every KNEE should BOW, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every TONGUE should CONFESS that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the GLORY of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11. 

I therefore say to you to live in your onward and upward trajectory, in the consciousness of knowing that you have the MIND OF CHRIST JESUS, and you can by the indwelling Holy Spirit judge [examine] rightly all things by the scriptural default in context unlike the natural man [unborn] in Christ Jesus. Stop living in self-defeat as one who can’t make wise judgement on things and always beckoning on others to make private and personal decisions for you while being deceived always as a prey and victim for this agent of darkness. And it’s unfortunate that many have become vulnerable to a fault in many ways to such a crafty, cunning and devouring false brethren that have creeped in to steal, kill and destroy as many innocent ones in the faith as they are cohorts of satan that appears and camouflaged as brethren. 

Today, reboot your mind and reset it to synchronise your spirit being and be transformed by the WORD of God that can refresh and renew your mind to begin a new consciousness of having the Mind of Christ Jesus as a reborn child of God, that no man can deceive any more. This will help you to wisely ARTICULATE and PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God for your well-being as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies 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. 

“That ye PUT OFF concerning the former CONVERSATION [CONDUCT] the old man, which is CORRUPT according to the deceitful lusts; 23 and be RENEWED in the spirit of YOUR MIND; 24 and that ye PUT ON the new man, which after God is CREATED in RIGHTEOUSNESS and TRUE HOLINESS” Ephesians 4:22-24. 

I pray that you become what God’s WORD says you ARE and can be, without a shadow of turning, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. I want you to say it repeatedly until it begins to take hold of you by all means: “I HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST” in me.  

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance. 12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, And the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain; They shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13/NKJV. 

“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: 29 whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily” Colossians 1:27-29. 

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ . . . 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain . . . 27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel” Philippians 1:6, 21, 27. 

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11. 

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed, is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you” Philippians 3:1-15. 

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” Galatians 2:20-21. 

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 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.

BE EMBOLDENED: YOU NEED TO ALWAYS TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – NO MATTER WHAT! 

“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 

Beloved in Christ – no matter what’s going on in your life today, I challenge you to always stand EMBOLDENED; and to always TAKE and MAKE – A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – ON and FOR your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. A question came up in Luke 4:22, when Jesus Christ took a stand to speak GRACIOUS WORDS against that which was contrary in His days of people making such sacrilegious or saying some unscriptural terms either directly or indirectly to insinuate the contrary or as some in noting things that can be attributed to cursing and swearing etc; In  today’s world, we see many made-up statements and excuses related to religion, denominations, sectarianism and such like settings as – “return to sender”, by “fire and thunder”, by “fire by force”, by “fire of the Holy Ghost” against another they dislike, “thunder to anyone against their destiny” as a witch-hunt and such like phrases that are of no stand Scripturally even though it makes religious sense appealing to their emotions, sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation, that leads to no avail. 

We must take a STAND on the GRACE wherein we are JUSTIFIED BY FAITH and have ACCESS BY FAITH toward God in Christ Jesus, to speak Scripturally, and of gracious words as our Lord Jesus did in humanity, instead of the onward and upward trajectory culmination of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation that appears and appeals to people vulnerability and quest that are unscriptural for the New Creation Testament. 

“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. 

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

Save yourself from every form of questioning on your JUSTIFICATION in REDEMPTION in Christ JESUS, and from SIN and its effect in terms of these: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH, by taking a STAND UP steadfastly on your FAITH in the GRACE against the enemy and cohorts in order to keep them at bay; and go on holding forth steadfastly the AFFIRMATION of your Faith in Christ Jesus stead, against all odds. Amen. 

Be EMBOLDENED to take a FAITH STAND in GRACE on the WORD as our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. He did take His STAND to FULFIL Father God PURPOSE in His humanity AGAINST all three odds suggestive questionnaire that was thrown on Him, by the ENEMY satan as by his COHORTS in other places, by answering him satan in all – IT’S WRITTEN. [Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-13. I PRAY you know how to say to the ENEMY and COHORTS – it’s WRITTEN too. [1 Peter 5:8-12]. 

Let none keep you on the low or down by any means – to bring back the memory of sin, sinful nature, setback, failures and defeat and such like. In Christ Jesus you are PRICELESS; and have an awesome, fabulous and gorgeous WORTH in grace. 

Your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus is a DID-DONE-DEED – Period! STAND ON it And FOR it daily – no matter what. Be steadfast and steadily STANDING ON your REDEMPTION GROUND; and to keep STANDING AGAINST any contrary. Meaning be more CONSCIOUS of who YOU ARE in CHRIST JESUS, than of what SATAN and COHORTS are about you in SIN and FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS. When you give the enemy and cohorts NO ATTENTION, they will give you NO DIRECTION to travel along. So, don’t give them any form of OXYGEN to breath around your redemption stand in grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

DON’T BE A WALK OVER BELIEVER BY ANYONE OR ANYTHING – RATHER – BE EMBOLDENED TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – NO MATTER WHAT. For in Christ Jesus, you ARE – TRIUMPHANT, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER AND MORE THAN CONQUERORS – all the way. And you – ARE REDEEMED, BEING REDEEMED AND SHALL BE REDEEMED – in Christ Jesus. Amen. 

Have A Blessed Day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

HEREIN ARE SOME WISDOM NUGGETS – SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST in the FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGHTEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-12. 

“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST the WILES of the devil. . . 14 STAND therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness” Ephesians 6:11, 14. 

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature (creation, Person, personality): 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 (Emphasis mine) 

“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 1:13-14. 

“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. 

“Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be TEMPTED OF THE DEVIL. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when THE TEMPTER came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, IT IS WRITTEN, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 and saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him” Matthew 4:1-11 (Luke 4:1-13).

BE EMBOLDENED – TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR FAITH IN THE GRACE

BE EMBOLDENED – TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR FAITH IN THE GRACE: FOR YOU’VE BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS!
 
“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, ACQUITTED of sin, DECLARED BLAMELESS before God] BY FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have PEACE with God [and the joy of reconciliation with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS BY FAITH into this [remarkable state of] grace in which we [firmly and safely and securely] STAND. Let us REJOICE in our HOPE and the CONFIDENT ASSURANCE of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]” Romans 5:1-2/AMP.
 
Beloved in Christ – no matter what’s going on in your life today, I challenge and behold you to always stand EMBOLDENED in the grace; and to TAKE and MAKE – YOUR STAND KNOWN OF YOUR BELIEVE IN THE FAITH – in the REDEMPTION that our God have given us in Christ Jesus stead. There’s so much out there of fear phobia, inferiority complex, intimidation, self or cohorts accusation of your past, that’s hunting and hurting your present; or and self defeat of the assumptions about you and such like; and as to the reality and tangibility of who you are and worth now in Christ Jesus; or probably because of your past or current challenges and circumstances. Am here to inform you for your justification that results your transformation in grace, and of the need to raise your heads up, shoulders high and put on your emboldened redemption in the faith with high heels of confidence of your JUSTIFIED state in Christ Jesus; this is to ensure and assure you God’s enabling, in order for you to be in charge and control and the custodian of your own God’s good and goodness in Redemption. Amen.
 
“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY OR COWARDICE OR FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER and of LOVE and of SOUND judgment and PERSONAL discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7/AMP.
 
“Herein is our love made PERFECT [COMPLETE], that we may have BOLDNESS [CONFIDENCE] in the day of JUDGMENT [JUSTICE, CHALLENGES]: because as HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love; but PERFECT [COMPLETE] love casteth out FEAR: because FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that FEARETH is not MADE PERFECT [COMPLETE ] in love” 1 John 4:17-18/Emphasis Mine.
 
“And this is the CONFIDENCE that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 15 and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him” 1 John 5:14-15.
 
A questioning came up in Luke 4:22, when Jesus Christ takes a STAND UP to speak GRACIOUS WORDS that was contrary in His days and in the ways of speaking emboldened of God’s personalised and personified purpose in one’s life [John 18:37; 1 John 3:8; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:11-12]. And we can see same too and differently in our day to day from many in denominationised and sectarianism settings as in some religious sayings as – “return to sender”, “fire and thunder”, “holy ghost fire” and such like which indicates pure ignorance and condescending out of the redemption Scriptural TRUTH God had offered us in Christ Jesus stead, to sing and speak forth in the new songs of testifying to our faith only of Christ Jesus and not to religious bigotry [Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 19:10; Philemon 1:6; Hebrews 10:23, 35-39]. We must take a robustness in our STAND on the GRACE wherein we are JUSTIFIED BY FAITH and have ACCESS BY FAITH toward God in Christ Jesus, instead of the onward and upward trajectory of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation that appears and appeals to people vulnerability and quest that are unscriptural for the New Creation Testament.
 
“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS [RIGHT STANDING, BLAMELESS]. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of FAITH, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through FAITH, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL nations be BLESSED. 9 So then they which BE of faith ARE blessed with FAITHFUL Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.
 
“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.
 
It’s time to be emboldened of your FAITH STAND in Christ, and save yourself from every form of QUESTIONING on your JUSTIFICATION in REDEMPTION in Christ JESUS, and from SIN and it’s EFFECT in terms to these: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH, by taking a STAND UP on your FAITH in GRACE against the ENEMY and COHORTS in order to keep them at bay; and go on holding forth steadfastly the AFFIRMATION of your Faith in Christ Jesus stead, against all odds. Amen.
 
Be EMBOLDENED to take a FAITH STAND in GRACE on the WORD as our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ did when He stood in the Temple to declare of His personified purpose with God [Luke 4:1-22] and in many other instances of confrontations by the religious and political elites of His days in humanity. He did take His STAND to FULFIL Father God PURPOSE in His humanity AGAINST all three odds suggestive questionnaire that was thrown on Him, by the ENEMY satan as by his COHORTS in other places, by answering him satan in all – IT’S WRITTEN [Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-13]. I PRAY you know how to say to the ENEMY and COHORTS in their various acts of manifesting and revealing [as wolves in sheep clothing’s, and or like a roaring lion and or as an angel of light] to challenge your faith stand in Christ Jesus by saying – IT’S WRITTEN too as Jesus Christ did. Amen. [1 Peter 5:8-12; Mathew 7:15; 2 Corinthians 11:14].
 
Let none keep you on the low or down by any means – to bring back the memory of sin, sinful nature, setback, failures and defeat and such like. In Christ Jesus you are PRICELESS and have an awesome, fabulous and gorgeous WORTH in grace that no wealth and riches of any can buy [Psalms 49:6-10].
 
Your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus by Father God is a DID, a DONE and a DEED – Period! STAND ON it And FOR it daily – no matter what. Be steadfast and steadily STANDING ON your REDEMPTION GROUND; and to keep STANDING AGAINST any contrary. Meaning be more CONSCIOUSNESS of who YOU ARE in CHRIST JESUS, than of what SATAN and COHORTS are about you in SIN and FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS. When you give the enemy and cohorts NO ATTENTION, they will give you NO DIRECTION to travel along. So, don’t give them any form of OXYGEN to breath around your REDEMPTION stand in grace, wherein you are BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS stead. Amen.
 
DON’T BE A WALK OVER BELIEVER BY ANYONE OR ANYTHING – RATHER – BE EMBOLDENED TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE AND FAITH – NO MATTER WHAT MAY. For in Christ Jesus you ARE – TRIUMPHANT, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER AND MORE THAN CONQUERORS – all the way. And you – ARE REDEEMED, BEING REDEEMED AND SHALL BE REDEEMED – as BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. Amen.
 
Have A Blessed Day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
 
“But that no man is JUSTIFIED by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith . . . 23 But before FAITH came, we were kept UNDER THE LAW, shut up unto the FAITH which should afterwards be REVEALED. 24 Wherefore the LAW was our SCHOOLMASTER to bring us unto Christ, that we might be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH” Galatians 3:11, 23-24.
 
“Knowing that a man is not JUSTIFIED by the works of the law, but by the FAITH of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be JUSTIFIED BY THE FAITH of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified” Galatians 2:16.
 
“Therefore we conclude that a man is JUSTIFIED BY FAITH without the DEEDS of the law” Romans 3:28.
 
“Now may the God of peace Himself SANCTIFY (SET APART) you through and through [that is, SEPARATE you from profane and vulgar things, make you PURE and WHOLE and undamaged—consecrated to Him—SET APART for His purpose]; and may your SPIRIT and SOUL and BODY be kept COMPLETE and [be found] BLAMELESS at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 (Amplified).
 
“For THE WORD of God is LIVING and ACTIVE and FULL of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, and revealed to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13 (Amplified).
 
“. . .3 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: . . . 7 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the RICHES OF HIS GRACE; 8 wherein he hath ABOUNDED toward us in all wisdom and prudence . . .” Ephesians 1:1-23
 
“There is therefore NOW NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” Romans 8:1-2.
 
“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION of our FAITH without WAVERING; (for he is FAITHFUL that promised;)” Hebrews 10:23.
 
“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your adversary the devil, as a ROARING lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST in the FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGHTEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever.

“Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be TEMPTED OF THE DEVIL. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when THE TEMPTER came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, IT IS WRITTEN, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 and saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and MINISTERED unto him” Matthew 4:1-11 [Luke 4:1-13].

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

By Leave a Comment

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]: IT’S ABOUT HAVING GOD’S APPROVAL AND NOT MEN’S APPLAUD [HYPER]!

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: 24 whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that He should be holden of it” Acts 2:22-24.

There’s nothing as dangerous as endeavouring to win favour outside the context of anything that has a stand – an ethics and etiquette – that worth priceless. As I have said in some writ, when you take a text out of a context, it becomes a con – and we all know when someone becomes a con person, con artist, conman and such like, we all will naturally distance ourselves from anyone who is already known to be a con in such spheres of doing life except you share in such person acts of behavioural bargains. If we can be able to distance ourselves, how much more when such it’s in conflict with God’s Scriptural CONTEXT and INSTRUCTIONS to our doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And God does not share His glory with mortal men in their hyper and applaud:

“And Herod was highly DISPLEASED with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with ONE ACCORD to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country. 21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, SAT upon his throne, and made an ORATION unto them. 22 And the people gave a SHOUT [APPLAUSE, HYPER], saying, It is the VOICE of a god, and not of a man. 23 And immediately the angel of the Lord SMOTE him, because he GAVE not God the GLORY: and he was EATEN of worms, and gave up the GHOST [DIED]” Acts 12:20-23.

There are many out there who will do anything outside the book to get the applause that men can give them to enable them outdo and undo others – and you can see it in places of doing life – workspaces, factory, business transaction, family circles, Church leadership position, government Offices and other expected civic places that’s – nongovernmental and many such like. For this kind of behaviour, Apostle Paul warned, charged and exhorted young Bishop Timothy, to note that leadership position for example it’s not for self-gains and should not be taken lightly; and people should not for any human reasons on selfish applause be placed in places they are not qualified to be otherwise it will undermine God’s authority and misplaced priority in honouring and magnifying God’s WORD that’s above all things as God had done.

“I CHARGE thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the ELECT angels, that thou OBSERVE these things without PREFERRING one before another, doing nothing by PARTIALITY. 22 LAY HANDS SUDDENLY ON NO MAN, neither be PARTAKER of other MEN’S SINS: keep thyself PURE” 1 Timothy 5:21-22.

“I will worship toward Your holy temple and praise Your name for Your loving-kindness and for Your truth and faithfulness; for You have EXALTED above all else Your NAME and Your WORD and You have MAGNIFIED Your WORD above all Your name!” Psalms 138:2/Amplified Classic Edition.

It’s of this emboldened spirit of getting God’s APPROVAL in all things in context and not just on somethings, that Apostle Peter was speaking of our Lord Jesus Christ in Acts 2:22-24. He was giving an admonishment about our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ – who is the author and finisher of our faith [Hebrews 12:2], and who is our God’s given and living example in doing God’s kingdom business in our earthly affairs [Hebrews 1:1-4], and by whom we ARE God’s ambassador on earth – to note how He ensured that He RECEIVED God’s APPROVAL and not men APPLAUSE, to do God’s given purpose and assignments in humanity [Luke 2:1-2, 14, 16-18, 22]. Jesus Christ cause in humanity was always to get God’s APPROVAL [intent] in every step because He knows, it must always be of the FATHER’S WILL to be done and not MEN’S WILL for egotism, self-gratification and self-centeredness and such like.

“. . . 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear WITNESS of me . . . 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him” John 10:22-38.

Apostle Paul had in his keen interest for us to live through God’s approval and signature in all we do to fulfil purpose and life, in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE. He then charged the Believers of God as you and me and as to Timothy, to endeavour to STUDY, to enable us get God’s APPROVAL [SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT] to a cause, so that we can be able to rightly apply the word of God appropriately in all matters of doing life and living godly. And to be embroidered to stand up against the enemy and cohorts voices when they show up too. For pure wisdom to do life and live godly is the application of knowledge. And where there’s no knowledge of a thing, it’s not only that IGNORANCE WILL PREVAIL, people will ABUSE PURPOSE of the intended. People had abused their relationship [spouses, children, family, friendship] for the lack of knowledge to the cause and context; people had abused position of leadership and authority for lack of knowledge of the context; people do evil and wickedness as abusers to undermine others especially toward the vulnerable and such like because of the lack of the knowledge to the context of the cause; you can name lots of places abuse have taken place or happening right now because of the stupidity and foolishness born out of ignorance to a cause [purpose] – and it’s all for the lack of wisdom – application of knowledge to such cause.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING [APPLYING, HANDLING] the WORD of TRUTH” 2 Timothy 2:15/Emphasis mine.

God wants us to live a life of CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], to enable us be His true ambassador for Christ. And being God’s representative on earth [Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 115:15-18; Psalms 8:4-8; 2 Corinthians 5:20], is not limited to a particular person or nation but to all who intend to do God’s purpose in RIGHTEOUSNESS; meaning those who wants to get on His APPROVED context and not in men trying to use UNRIGHTEOUSNESS to get His APPROVAL for their APPLAUSE. For Gods glory is not to be shared with men. This is the caution and exhortations that Apostle Peter gives of God’s openness to all as He’s not a respecter of men; while Apostle Paul also in a different respective context gave a dire warning to the Believers who wants to be on God’s good book and purpose not to dare God, by using the unrighteousness cause of men to an approval and signature to get God’s righteous approved cause.

“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.

“For the WRATH of God is REVEALED from heaven AGAINST ALL UNGODLINESS and UNRIGHTEOUSNESS OF MEN, who hold the TRUTH IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 32 who KNOWING the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have PLEASURE in them that do them” Romans 1:18, 32.

Therefore, knowing the danger and wrath of working through men’s crazy approval cause to make you feel important and good while you know you are going to face God’s wrath, why not today, even now, resolved intentionally and pragmatically, to do God’s approved purpose in context unreservedly, by STUDYING the WORD of God like the Berea Christian of Acts 17:10-12 and by taking up Apostle Paul exhortation to Timothy as written in 1 Timothy 4:14-17. These will make you to walk in wisdom – rightly applying the word through knowledge.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto BEREA: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED THE WORD with all READINESS of mind, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES DAILY, whether those things were so. 12 Therefore many of them BELIEVED; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

“But continue thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15 and that from a child thou hast KNOWN the holy SCRIPTURES, which are ABLE TO MAKE THEE WISE unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT [MATURE, COMPLETE, WHOLE], throughly FURNISHED unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17/Emphasis mine.

It’s my PRAYERS that you will not struggle in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], as you do life by ensuring and assuring God’s approval is what’s always in your top heartfelt without men’s approval to your being God’s true Ambassador for Christ.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance. 12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, And the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain; They shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13/NKJV.

“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: 29 whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily” Colossians 1:27-29.

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ . . . 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain . . . 27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel” Philippians 1:6, 21, 27.

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11.

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you” Philippians 3:1-15.

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” Galatians 2:20-21.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 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.

LIVING IN CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

By Leave a Comment

LIVING IN CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]: YOU MUST INTENTIONALLY DO AWAY WITH UNBELIEF!

“And to whom SWARE He that they should NOT ENTER into His REST, but to them that BELIEVED NOT? 19 So we see that they could NOT ENTER in because of UNBELIEF” Hebrews 3:18-19.

The good and faithful, true and sure God that we claim to serve acceptably and unreservedly and to worship worthily, in spirit and truth, is the same God that searches the hearts and thoughts of men to ensure that their motives are of a contrite and broken hearts [spirit] all the way. [Psalms 51:17; Psalms 34:18; Isaiah 62:2; Revelation 2:23; Jeremiah 17:10].

And because God does not share His glory with any, hence Lucifer that turns Satan the devil with the third stars call demons were all kicked out of heavens for such enabling thoughts and imagination and worse to have attempted to carry such impossible mission in God’s highly sanctified and consecrated throne of holiness and righteousness. [Ezekiel 28:11-19; Isaiah 14:12-19; Revelation 12:3-5]. God is a jealous God and won’t share His shekinah glory with a mere mortal in the flesh too just as He dealt with devil in the spirit for his complete negligence of the purity and sanctity of the heavenly.

It thus means that the thought of living a life of grace toward God in Christ Jesus with an unbelieving spirit it’s not permissible in the New Creation Church of Christ Jesus as it was not permitted in the Old Creation Church of the wilderness through Moses. [Hebrews 3:18-19; Hebrews 11:6; Romans 4:19-21; Mark 11:20-24]. Unbelief has no place and reckoning in the kingdom of God for any who seeks His heavenly intervention in their earthly affairs in Christ Jesus – it’s always repentance toward God and Faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ [Acts 20:20-21]. It thus means that those who wants to have alternative plan A to plan Z as a rescue plan under God as they have an act of UNBELIEF of God’s enabling in all things that pertains to life and godliness [2 Peter 1:2-5; John 1:12], are living in self-deception and lying to themselves and cohorts. And nothing from God will answers to UNBELIEF state for any cause or context within the Kingdom provisions.

You can’t be set to live the CHRISTLIKENESS life of being CHRISTLIKE by the spirit of UNBELIEF toward God in Christ Jesus. The children of Israel of the Church in the wilderness under Moses, didn’t enter their place of rest in fulfilling God’s purpose for them meaningfully, because of UNBELIEF. An UNBELIEF toward God is worst than any measures of describing a cancerous condition. Thus, indicating that God does not accommodate those who live a double-minded attitude towards His WORD in any context. For such does not receive anything from God irrespective.

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, NOTHING WAVERING. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall RECEIVE ANY THING of the Lord. 8 A DOUBLE MINDED man is unstable in all his ways” James 1:5-8.

“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 11:20-24.

It’s impossible to receive anything of God through UNBELIEVE. For God only reward only the act of Faith toward Him in Christ Jesus. And Faith is the de facto of God to be victorious on the earth and be heavenly connected without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. For while we may live in the flesh, our life battle are of faith. We fight the fight of faith. God is of Faith and not of the flesh where unbelief dwell [Hebrews 11:6; 1 John 5:4-5; 2 Corinthians 5:7; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6; 1 Timothy 6:12.].

Do you want a pure rest with God in Christ Jesus in order to obtain your full salvation rights and privileges in redemption? You have to live by the WORD OF FAITH and not that of UNBELIEF. [Romans 10:8-10, 17; Hebrews 6:10-12; Romans 14:23 (Hebrews 10:38; Galatians 3:12; Romans 1:16-17; Habakkuk 2:4)]. Unbelief toward God in Christ Jesus is a self set denial from any good and goodness of God. You can’t serve God with haphazard attitude – you either stick to God fully in His faithfulness or walk away with the default of disappointment that’s set on the place of UNBELIEF [Hebrews 10:23, 35-39].

Therefore, know that in living the CHRISTLIKENESS [being CHRISTLIKE], there’s no place for self-deception and self-gratification through double mindedness toward God in Christ Jesus stead. Any of such that’s contrary to faith toward God is considered an enemy of God which could be any of these:

* The Enemy WITHIN – The Flesh [five senses – hear, see, feel, taste and touch (feel)].

* The Enemy you SEE – The world [and it’s systems].

* The Enemy we KNOW – Satan and cohorts [demons].

* The Enemy we DO – Religion [found through denomination, sectarianism and such like].

It’s my earnest PRAYERS that you walk by faith and not in unbelief toward God [you can search through in many of my writs on faith] to help you learn to walk by faith toward God in Christ Jesus, so that you can find fulfilment and have a meaningful purpose in your doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

BE EMBOLDENED – TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR FAITH IN THE GRACE

BE EMBOLDENED – TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR FAITH IN THE GRACE: FOR YOU’VE BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS!

“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, ACQUITTED of sin, DECLARED BLAMELESS before God] BY FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have PEACE with God [and the joy of reconciliation with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS BY FAITH into this [remarkable state of] grace in which we [firmly and safely and securely] STAND. Let us REJOICE in our HOPE and the CONFIDENT ASSURANCE of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]” Romans 5:1-2/AMP.

Beloved in Christ – no matter what’s going on in your life today, I challenge and behold you to always stand EMBOLDENED in the grace; and to TAKE and MAKE – YOUR STAND KNOWN OF YOUR BELIEVE IN THE FAITH – in the REDEMPTION that our God have given us in Christ Jesus stead. There’s so much out there of fear phobia, inferiority complex, intimidation, self or cohorts accusation of your past, that’s hunting and hurting your present; or and self defeat of the assumptions about you and such like; and as to the reality and tangibility of who you are and worth now in Christ Jesus; or probably because of your past or current challenges and circumstances. Am here to inform you for your justification that results your transformation in grace, and of the need to raise your heads up, shoulders high and put on your emboldened redemption in the faith with high heels of confidence of your JUSTIFIED state in Christ Jesus; this is to ensure and assure you God’s enabling, in order for you to be in charge and control and the custodian of your own God’s good and goodness in Redemption.  Amen.

“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY OR COWARDICE OR FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER and of LOVE and of SOUND judgment and PERSONAL discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7/AMP.

“Herein is our love made PERFECT [COMPLETE], that we may have BOLDNESS [CONFIDENCE] in the day of JUDGMENT [JUSTICE, CHALLENGES]: because as HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love; but PERFECT [COMPLETE] love casteth out FEAR: because FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that FEARETH is not MADE PERFECT [COMPLETE ] in love” 1 John 4:17-18/Emphasis Mine.

“And this is the CONFIDENCE that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 15 and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him” 1 John 5:14-15.

A questioning came up in Luke 4:22, when Jesus Christ takes a STAND UP to speak GRACIOUS WORDS that was contrary in His days and in the ways of speaking emboldened of God’s personalised and personified purpose in one’s life [John 18:37; 1 John 3:8; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:11-12]. And we can see same too and differently in our day to day from many in denominationised and sectarianism settings as in some religious sayings as – “return to sender”, “fire and thunder”, “holy ghost fire” and such like which indicates pure ignorance and condescending out of the redemption Scriptural TRUTH God had offered us in Christ Jesus stead, to sing and speak forth in the new songs of testifying to our faith only of Christ Jesus and not to religious bigotry [Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 19:10; Philemon 1:6; Hebrews 10:23, 35-39]. We must take a robustness in our STAND on the GRACE wherein we are JUSTIFIED BY FAITH and have ACCESS BY FAITH toward God in Christ Jesus, instead of the onward and upward trajectory of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation that appears and appeals to people vulnerability and quest that are unscriptural for the New Creation Testament.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS [RIGHT STANDING, BLAMELESS]. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of FAITH, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through FAITH, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL nations be BLESSED. 9 So then they which BE of faith ARE blessed with FAITHFUL Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.

“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.

It’s time to be emboldened of your FAITH STAND in Christ, and save yourself from every form of QUESTIONING on your JUSTIFICATION in REDEMPTION in Christ JESUS, and from SIN and it’s EFFECT in terms to these: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH, by taking a STAND UP on your FAITH in GRACE against the ENEMY and COHORTS in order to keep them at bay; and go on holding forth steadfastly the AFFIRMATION of your Faith in Christ Jesus stead, against all odds. Amen.

Be EMBOLDENED to take a FAITH STAND in GRACE on the WORD as our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ did when He stood in the Temple to declare of His personified purpose with God [Luke 4:1-22] and in many other instances of confrontations by the religious and political elites of His days in humanity. He did take His STAND to FULFIL Father God PURPOSE in His humanity AGAINST all three odds suggestive questionnaire that was thrown on Him, by the ENEMY satan as by his COHORTS in other places, by answering him satan in all – IT’S WRITTEN [Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-13]. I PRAY you know how to say to the ENEMY and COHORTS in their various acts of manifesting and revealing [as wolves in sheep clothing’s, and or like a roaring lion and or as an angel of light] to challenge your faith stand in Christ Jesus by saying – IT’S WRITTEN too as Jesus Christ did. Amen. [1 Peter 5:8-12; Mathew 7:15; 2 Corinthians 11:14].

Let none keep you on the low or down by any means – to bring back the memory of sin, sinful nature, setback, failures and defeat and such like. In Christ Jesus you are PRICELESS and have an awesome, fabulous and gorgeous WORTH in grace that no wealth and riches of any can buy [Psalms 49:6-10].

Your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus by Father God is a DID, a DONE and a DEED – Period! STAND ON it And FOR it daily – no matter what. Be steadfast and steadily STANDING ON your REDEMPTION GROUND; and to keep STANDING AGAINST any contrary. Meaning be more CONSCIOUSNESS of who YOU ARE in CHRIST JESUS, than of what SATAN and COHORTS are about you in SIN and FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS. When you give the enemy and cohorts NO ATTENTION, they will give you NO DIRECTION to travel along. So, don’t give them any form of OXYGEN to breath around your REDEMPTION stand in grace, wherein you are BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS stead. Amen.

DON’T BE A WALK OVER BELIEVER BY ANYONE OR ANYTHING – RATHER – BE EMBOLDENED TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE AND FAITH – NO MATTER WHAT MAY. For in Christ Jesus you ARE – TRIUMPHANT, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER AND MORE THAN CONQUERORS – all the way. And you –  ARE REDEEMED, BEING REDEEMED AND SHALL BE REDEEMED – as BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. Amen.

Have A Blessed Day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But that no man is JUSTIFIED by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith . . . 23 But before FAITH came, we were kept UNDER THE LAW, shut up unto the FAITH which should afterwards be REVEALED. 24 Wherefore the LAW was our SCHOOLMASTER to bring us unto Christ, that we might be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH” Galatians 3:11, 23-24.

“Knowing that a man is not JUSTIFIED by the works of the law, but by the FAITH of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be JUSTIFIED BY THE FAITH of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified” Galatians 2:16.

“Therefore we conclude that a man is JUSTIFIED BY FAITH without the DEEDS of the law” Romans 3:28.

“Now may the God of peace Himself SANCTIFY (SET APART) you through and through [that is, SEPARATE you from profane and vulgar things, make you PURE and WHOLE and undamaged—consecrated to Him—SET APART for His purpose]; and may your SPIRIT and SOUL and BODY be kept COMPLETE and [be found] BLAMELESS at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 (Amplified).

“For THE WORD of God is LIVING and ACTIVE and FULL of power [making it operative, energizing, and effective]. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit [the completeness of a person], and of both joints and marrow [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And not a creature exists that is concealed from His sight, but all things are open and exposed, and revealed to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13 (Amplified).

“. . .3 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: . . . 7 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the RICHES OF HIS GRACE; 8 wherein he hath ABOUNDED toward us in all wisdom and prudence . . .” Ephesians 1:1-23

“There is therefore NOW NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” Romans 8:1-2

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

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your adversary the devil, as a ROARING lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST in the FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGHTEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-12.

“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST the WILES of the devil. . . 14 STAND therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness” Ephesians 6:11, 14.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE [CREATION, PERSON, PERSONALITY]: 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/Emphasis mine.

“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 1:13-14.

“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.

“Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be TEMPTED OF THE DEVIL. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when THE TEMPTER came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, IT IS WRITTEN, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 and saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and MINISTERED unto him” Matthew 4:1-11 [Luke 4:1-13].
