THIS DECEMBER – IS ALL ABOUT THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER – IS ALL ABOUT THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS: LETS COMMEMORATE AND CELEBRATE HIM IN EVERYWAY!

“Now THE BIRTH of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost . . .  21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins . . . 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, God WITH us.” Matthew 1:18-25.

CHRIST JESUS – He’s the reason for the season. He’s the reason for the celebration. Outside Him there’s no authentic and genuine reason that can be efficacious. And He’s THE WORD, the GOD MANIFEST in humanity. The WORD that’s able to do wholesome division and separation, of the human spirit, soul and body respectively; and all creatures are laid bare before Him in doing life and living godly. He’s THE WORD that the Holy Angel’s harkened unto in life and grace. He’s the sent one of the trinity God, who came for humanity good and goodness and there’s NO CONTROVERSY of any sorts about Him..

For me, when you take Christ from ‘CHRISTMAS’ you have ‘MAS’ which means ‘MAN AT SELF’ while with Christ it means ‘MAN AT SUFFICIENCY’.

CHRISTMAS means – A yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s love to mankind in the birth of our Lord & Saviour Christ Jesus and His cause on earth.

CHRIST means – The anointed one, Messiah, Saviour, The Redeemer and more; while MASS means – to Celebrate, to observe and commemorate.

Therefore, in this Month DECEMBER, let’s commemorate and celebrate Him for He is indeed born in our hearts and in our being. His birth is the rebirth of:

*Peace and goodwill toward men

*Hope, Faith & Love for men

*Fellowship and Relationship

*Salvation for all mankind and more.

However, as wonderful as Christmas commemoration and celebration is, be it known that Christ is enthroned. He’s no longer:

* The babe in the manger

* The servant to death

* The limited one and

* The Christ on the Cross.

He’s now the:

* God on the throne

* Omnipotent- (unlimited, all powerful)

* Omnipresent – (ever present, everywhere the same time) and

* Omniscience (all knowing, all understanding and all wise).

May Christ be all above to you, this Day, this Christmas and this month December. I pray you have a blessed celebration and commemoration.

THIS CHRISTMAS – Do it without DEBT

THIS CHRISTMAS – Do it without DEBT: Don’t be INDEBTED in the name of Commemoration and Celebration!

“Every man shall GIVE AS HE IS ABLE, ACCORDING to the BLESSING of the Lord thy God which he HATH GIVEN THEE” Deuteronomy 16:17.

“Every man ACCORDING as he PURPOSETH in his heart, so let him GIVE; not GRUDGINGLY, or of NECESSITY: for God loveth a CHEERFUL GIVER” 2 Corinthians 9:7.

I know in essence that carrying out the UNWRITTEN DEMANDS we place on ourselves during this Christmas season in respect of GIVING, RECEIVING and SHARING GIFT and or FOOD is enormous; you must know and understand, that though it’s a good intent which I do agree and believe totally with all graciousness and gracefulness as I cherish doing, but it known also, that it’s an unhealthy demand to place on yourself to accomplish when you don’t have the resources to act accordingly.

I hereby suggest to you – let your actions be done with what you have as the scriptures enjoined; and then act accordingly, when and where you can but not in debt and indebtedness that ends you in the sickening of your well-being. For it’s MORE gracious and graceful when you can do it cheerfully without murmuring, complaining and subjecting yourself to any form of psychological and emotional unrest.

And worst still, let not giving and sharing be done while you know that your being is spiritually disarmed to handle challenges, especially when you are behind in the repayment of some incurred indebtedness, and you know that when debt letters and or calls and or the visit of debt collectors comes knocking at your door, that the signal of depression, anguish, wrath, bitterness, regrets and such like will trigger along with other side effects.

I don’t think Christ Jesus would APPROVE all the indebtedness that people indulge themselves in the name of Christmas celebration and commemoration. Nobody is entitled to put you into debt and indebtedness in order to keep such a person happy at your expense; for you are the CUSTODIAN of your peace and happiness and none else – so guard jealously your well-being happiness without compromise to please any before you. It’s best to live within your means – that is, within your FAITH – in the joy, happiness and grace of God in Christ Jesus. For the just in Christ shall live by his/her faith in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 [Galatians 3:11; Romans 1:17; Hebrews 10:38].

Always know in hearts of thoughts that Jesus is risen and Enthroned. He’s no longer:

* THE BABY IN THE MANGER

* THE SERVANT ON THE CROSS

He’s the Lord God on the THRONE and He LIVES, REIGNS and RULES over ALL in ALL.

Therefore be MERRY, enjoy yourself with what you can and have available to yourself no matter how little, in the peace and grace of God in Christ Jesus stead; and where there’s more overflowing, you can then share in grace, love and peace in good will and joyfully in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS WITHOUT DEBT AND INDEBTEDNESS!

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For if there be FIRST a WILLING mind, it is accepted ACCORDING to that a man HATH, and NOT ACCORDING to that he HATH NOT” 2 Corinthians 8:12.

“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.

MAKE YOUR CHRISTMAS – BE MORE THAN A DAY AND MOMENTARY EVENT

MAKE YOUR CHRISTMAS – BE MORE THAN A DAY AND MOMENTARY EVENT: MAKE IT YOUR DAILY EXPERIENCES IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“Blessed be the Lord, who DAILY loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah” Psalms 68:19.

The celebration and commemoration of God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus birth and His redemption cause on earth is what Christmas is all about. The act of Christmas should be a DAILY LIFE experience  and not just A DAY EVENT – Psalms 68:19. For God is set to crown the year with His goodness and abundance day by day, and not for only one time as in month December by the Christmas.

 “Thou CROWNEST the YEAR with thy GOODNESS; and thy PATHS DROP FATNESS” Psalms 65:11.

I know that as one live daily to acknowledge the purpose of God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus birth, and His redemption cause on earth, the BENEFITS of God in this intent will accompany such an individual. That’s the essence of the awakening that THIS CHRISTMAS brings – A DAILY Experience and not a MOMENTARY experience. Hence, in your acts of CHRISTMAS – even This CHRISTMAS, it’s wise to make it your daily habits and benefits – it’s your rights in life in Christ Jesus stead. For God’s mercies and steadfast faithfulness in love for you and all are refreshing and new each day.

“It is of the Lord’s MERCIES that we are not consumed, because his COMPASSIONS fail not. 23 They are NEW EVERY MORNING: great is thy FAITHFULNESS. 24 The Lord is MY PORTION, saith my soul; therefore will I HOPE in him” Lamentations 3:22-24.

It thus mean that God’s love intent for mankind in Christ Jesus at Christmas commemoration and celebration, should become a daily life DOING and EXPERIENCE; it should not become where you have to await for another year again to – look good about yourself, to put on gorgeous outfits, to appear elegant, to eat a very good healthy meal, to pay homage to family’s, friends and the love ones that you care about, to enjoy the best of God in life and to do many other charitable causes for fellow men as God have given you opportunity.

I pray you DAILY experience the goodness of God as you enact the essence of Christ Jesus in THIS CHRISTMAS, for our God do indeed CROWN the years with His goodness and abundance for our BLESSEDNESS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Blessed be the Lord, who DAILY LOADETH us with BENEFITS, even the God of our salvation” Psalms 68:19.

“Thou CROWNEST the YEAR with thy GOODNESS; and thy PATHS DROP FATNESS. 12 They drop upon 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 over with CORN; they shout for JOY, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13.

“It is of the Lord’s MERCIES that we are not consumed, because his COMPASSIONS fail not. 23 They are NEW EVERY MORNING: great is thy FAITHFULNESS. 24 The Lord is MY PORTION, saith my soul; therefore will I HOPE in him” Lamentations 3:22-24.

“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an EVIL HEART OF UNBELIEF, in departing from the living God. 13 But EXHORT one another DAILY, while it is called TO DAY; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made PARTAKERS of Christ, if we HOLD the beginning of our confidence STEDFAST unto the end; 15 while it is said, TO DAY if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation” Hebrews 3:12-15.

THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS: IT’S GOD’S LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS!

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

Am absolutely delighted to know and equally inform you, that the Birth of Christ Jesus that brought about the reason for the season called CHRISTMAS – even This CHRISTMAS, was and is, God introducing LIGHT again into the world. The SON LIGHT of God that SURPASSED the SUN LIGHT of the human senses.

“For God, who commanded the LIGHT to SHINE out of DARKNESS, hath SHINED in our HEARTS, to give the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of the GLORY of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

It’s that SON LIGHT of God that Apostle Paul experience at MIDDAY. At Midday of SUN LIGHT, Apostle Paul saw and experience two lights – the SON LIGHT and the SUN LIGHT. And instead of the known SUN LIGHT, which supposedly should be at the full beam heights of the human SUN brightness, he saw the SON LIGHT beam on him, which was way beyond measure, that surpasses his known – Acts 26:13. It’s simply because JESUS is the SUN of RIGHTEOUSNESS. His presence dispels DARKNESS and ILLUMINATES beyond all known lights – Malachi 4:2.

I pray that the SON LIGHT light of God will shine in and through you in such a time as This CHRISTMAS, that every indication of darkness will be brought to light and surpass in everyway.

“But unto you that fear my name shall the SUN of RIGHTEOUSNESS arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth and grow up as calves of the stall” Malachi 4:2.

I pray that you find an EXCEEDING GREAT JOY, as you let Jesus becomes your DAY STAR in each DAWN DAY as the SHEPHERD experience and was led towards Him by Him the DAY STAR in guidance at Christ birth – 2 Peter 1:19/Matthew 2:9-10.

May you have a DELIGHTFUL SON LIGHT CHRISTMAS.

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

“When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the STAR, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. 10 When they saw the STAR, they rejoiced with EXCEEDING GREAT JOY” Matthew 2:9-10.

THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS: GOD’S LOVE IS AT WORK – LETS SHARE IT!

“Behold, what MANNER of LOVE the Father hath BESTOWED upon us, that we should be CALLED the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not” 1 John 3:1.

I want you to know that God loves you, and cares for you and everything about you. Never in the history is there such a huge expenditure or exchange of money on goods and services, for gift and care, to extend and share with friends, colleagues, family and love ones as  we see during this season of Christmas.

People do this to extend the default of love embedded in man by God irrespective of their statuesque and belief; and this has now been expressed in this Christmas, in commemoration and celebration of God’s LOVE in Christ BIRTH and His CAUSE on earth.

Sometimes, just letting someone know he or she is love, can speak more volume than gift. Let us in our little way express such love of God as we have received to those around and about us, for our God is love and love is the essence of Christ birth of which is – ‘THIS CHRISTMAS’.

CHRISTMAS – THIS CHRISTMAS, GOD’S LOVE IS AT WORK, LETS SHARE IT TO OTHERS.

God’s grace and blessings in love in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen..

“And HOPE maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us . . . 8 But God COMMENDETH his LOVE toward us, in that, while WE WERE YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have EVERLASTING LIFE.  17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED.” (John 3:16-17).

“Beloved, let us LOVE one another: for LOVE is of God; and every one that LOVETH is BORN of God, and KNOWETH God.  8 He that LOVETH NOT KNOWETH not God; for GOD IS LOVE.  9 In this was manifested the LOVE of God toward us, because that God sent his only BEGOTTEN Son into the world, that we might LIVE through him.  10 Herein is LOVE, not that we LOVED God, but that he LOVED us, and sent his Son to be the PROPITIATION for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so LOVED us, we ought also to LOVE one another.” (1 John 4:7-11).

THIS DECEMBER. . . THIS CHRISTMAS: BE CAREFUL OF THE CHOICE YOU MAKE IN EVERYWAY!

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER. . . THIS CHRISTMAS: BE CAREFUL OF THE CHOICE YOU MAKE IN EVERYWAY!

“Ye have not CHOSEN me, but I have CHOSEN you, and ORDAINED (ANOINTED) you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you . . . 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have CHOSEN you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you” John 15:16, 19.

YOU ARE GOD’S CHOICE – HE HAS CHOSEN YOU. THEREFORE CHOSE WISELY AS GOD CHOSE YOU IN LIFE AND GODLINESS, IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

To some, choice or to chose is so smooth and easy, but for those who knows and considers the consequence and end result of their intent in matters of choice and to chose, lots are put into considerations. And for an imminent decision with repercussions, it takes a deep thought in making a choice, knowing the effect of such choice needs to worth everything that might affect your today and tomorrow. For making a choice demands careful thinking through, pondering and meditations because it’s one’s life and all. This I found intrigued in Apostle Paul that worth noting in all the phases of our wanting to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead in everyway.

“For to me, to LIVE is Christ [He is my source of joy, my reason to live] and to DIE is gain [for I will be with Him in eternity]. 22 If, however, it is to be life here and I am to go on living, this will mean useful and productive service for me; SO I DO NOT KNOW WHICH TO CHOOSE [IF I AM GIVEN THAT CHOICE]. 23 But I am hard-pressed between the two. I have the desire to leave [this world] and be with Christ, for that is far, far better” Philippians 1:21-23 Amplified.

You must know for sure that you are the product of your choice. The choices you make in life defines you. The friends you chose and keep will make and define you. Your attitude to your choice will determine your altitude. So, as God’s chosen one, you need to scripturally THINK through, PONDER through and MEDIATE through, before making a costly CHOICE in – THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS.

Therefore, I repeat pleading with you in God’s name in Christ Jesus, that in THIS DECEMBER . . . and in THIS CHRISTMAS, be very careful of the CHOICE you make – because it will define you in everyway, in your path of doing life and living godly in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

I admonish you now as in always, to choose God first, so that He may help you and together, makes sense of the good choices to define your today and tomorrow in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

I truly pray that you make your choice by the scriptures that you might by PEACE promise of God at Christ Jesus birth, you can live through every phase of your CHOICE without murmuring and complaining and questioning. For we WALK by FAITH and not by SIGHT – SENSES. 2 Corinthians 5:7. And Faith is of the WORD to overcome the world pressure and challenges. Romans 10:17; 1 John 5:3-5.

Shalom! Blessed regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH READING AND PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” Joshua 1:8-9 NKJV.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you LIFE and DEATH, BLESSING and CURSING: therefore CHOOSE LIFE, that both THOU and thy SEED may LIVE: 20 that thou mayest LOVE the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest OBEY his voice, and that thou mayest CLEAVE unto him: FOR HE IS THY LIFE, and the LENGTH of thy days: that thou mayest DWELL in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to GIVE them” Deuteronomy 30:19-20.

“Now therefore FEAR the Lord, and SERVE him in SINCERITY and in TRUTH: and PUT AWAY THE GODS which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the Lord. 15 And if it SEEM EVIL unto you to SERVE the Lord, CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY WHOM YE WILL SERVE; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE, we will SERVE the Lord” Joshua 24:14-15.

“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.

“For we WALK by FAITH, not by SIGHT (SENSES)” 2 Corinthians 5:7 Emphasis Mine.

“So then FAITH cometh by hearing, and hearing by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS (IRKSOME, BURDENSOME, TASKMASTER, DIFFICULT, HARD WORK). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMETH the WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5 Emphasis Mine.

“But we are bound to GIVE THANKS ALWAY to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from THE BEGINNING CHOSEN YOU to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 14 whereunto he CALLED you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ” 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14.

“But ye are a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an HOLY nation, a PECULIAR people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath CALLED you out of darkness into his MARVELLOUS light: 10 which in time past were NOT A PEOPLE, but are now THE PEOPLE of God: which had NOT OBTAINED mercy, but now have OBTAINED mercy” 1 Peter 2:9-10.

THIS CHRISTMAS: It’s About God’s GREATER LOVE To You

By Leave a Comment

THIS CHRISTMAS: It’s About God’s GREATER LOVE To You – And You WORTH It!

“GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his life for his friends.” (John 15:13).

There is no better way to express this most excellent way of God’s love other than this season of Christmas. This Christmas expressed genuinely the LOVE of God, which COST Him His Son Christ Jesus, and eventually COST Christ Jesus His life, on the redemptive CROSS.

“GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his life for his friends.” (John 15:13).

It was LOVE at BIRTH and LOVE at DEATH and LOVE on the THRONE for now, today and ever. It’s called, the GREATER LOVE. The love that laid down His life for those He love and will always care about.

The GREATER LOVE is a GIVING LOVE, even when someone else don’t deserve it. It’s love unspeakable, unfathomable, unimaginable and indescribable – it’s an unconditional love. It’s love without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation – hypocrisy. It’s love that surpasses and transcends human sense knowledge. The love that serves, breakthrough barriers by bridging gaps and lubricates our FAITH stands in Christ Jesus to victory and triumph. The God’s kind of love that’s expressed daily in our inner being by the Holy Spirit that dwells in us – Romans 5:5, 8; Romans 12:9-10; Galatians 5:6, 13; Ephesians 3:17-19.

And because you’re worth it, God show forth this GREATER LOVE in Christ Birth, hence you need to max every good thing this love is all about in the course of life. Let none belittle you or take you for granted. You Are Worth – This Greater Love – This Christmas, This December and afterwards.

THIS CHRISTMAS – ENJOY GOD’S GREATER LOVE

I pray for you, that God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in the GREATER LOVE in Christ Jesus stead may abound with you now and always. Amen.

And may you, having been [deeply] rooted and [securely] grounded in LOVE, 18 be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the width and length and height and depth of His LOVE [fully experiencing that amazing, endless love]; 19 and [that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES [mere] knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself]” Ephesians 3:17-19 Amplified.

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS – THE POWER OF CHOICE

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS – THE POWER OF CHOICE: CHOOSE LIFE AND LIFE-GIVING WORDS – THAT ARE SCRIPTURAL!

“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 IS TIME TO LIVE WHOLE AND SPEAK WELL TO LIVE WHOLE into your total Well-Being: spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5:23/Hebrews 4:12-13). It’s time for you to SPEAK the WORD and LIVE by the WORD; and not just any POSITIVE WORD but SCRIPTURALLY based WORD.

Know full well that POSITIVE WORD may not necessarily be SCRIPTURAL WORD. SCRIPTURAL WORD are LIVING WORD. They are LIFE GIVING WORD, and Christ Jesus is THE WORD (John 1:1-5, 14). And He is the REASON for THIS CHRISTMAS. Speak Him FORTH into your life situation and circumstances.

Speaking The SCRIPTURAL WORD is speaking life to your situation and circumstances – Mark 11:23. And the dead or deadened will hear and come alive; and will rise up to live – John 5:24-27; and you will be QUICKENED to live again, when you speak SCRIPTURALLY BASED-WORD into any situation in Christ Jesus stead.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that HEARETH MY WORD, and BELIEVETH on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when THE DEAD SHALL HEAR THE VOICE of the Son of God: AND THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man” John 5:24-27.

Speaking forth the LIVING and GRACIOUS WORD to all about you – no matter what the circumstances presents at any moment, will DEFINE your life and the atmosphere you desire to see and enjoy just as a THERMOSTAT does define irrespective and not as a thermometer that absorbs and allows external definition.

I pray you enjoy your day in God’s gracious and graceful scripturally based WORD Of LIFE with HOPE, FAITH AND LOVE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“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.

“A man’s BELLY (BEING) shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH; and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in the POWER of the TONGUE: and they that LOVE it shall eat the FRUIT thereof” Proverbs 18:20-21.

“Thou art SNARED with THE WORDS of thy MOUTH, thou art TAKEN with the WORDS of thy MOUTH” Proverbs 6:2.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION (Declaration/Confession) of our FAITH WITHOUT WAVERING; (for HE is FAITHFUL that PROMISED;)” Hebrews 10:23 (Emphasis Mine).

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the WORD of their TESTIMONY; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11.

“And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the spirit of PROPHECY” Revelation 19:10.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that HEARETH MY WORD, and BELIEVETH on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when THE DEAD SHALL HEAR THE VOICE of the Son of God: AND THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man” John 5:24-27.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you LIFE and DEATH, BLESSING and CURSING: therefore CHOOSE LIFE, that both thou and thy seed may LIVE: 20 that thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: FOR HE IS THY LIFE, AND THE LENGTH OF THY DAYS: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them” Deuteronomy 30:19-20.

“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify 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.
