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..

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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!

“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 phases 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 – WHAT IS IT TO YOU

By Leave a Comment

THIS CHRISTMAS – WHAT IS IT TO YOU: IS IT – CHRISTMAS Or XMAS – I Know It’s “CHRIST” For “CHRISTMAS” And Not An ‘X’ For “CHRIST” As In “XMAS”!

What is CHRISTMAS? It is the treasured yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s LOVE to mankind in the BIRTH of our – Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus – and His REDEMPTION CAUSE on earth for all mankind.

It’s imperative to commemorate and celebrate Christ birth. In being objective, I have sectioned the word Christmas in this way. That is, CHRIST and MAS. Wherefore, Christ – means, the anointed One, the Messiah, the Saviour, the Holy one of Israel and the Redeemer. And ‘MAS’ for ‘MASS’ means – The Gathering – To Celebrate, Commemorate and Observe. Hence  CHRISTMAS in this context is the yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s love in the birth of Christ and His REDEMPTION cause on Earth to all mankind.

This thus signifies “CHRISTMAS” as the sharing of that GRACE and the benediction of the triune God which is expressed through their LOVE to mankind in COMMUNION – FELLOWSHIP –  as it’s written:

“The GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ and the LOVE of God, and the COMMUNION of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.

Some have replaced the ‘Christ’ of Christmas with an ‘X’ for Xmas. Probably because they are ignorant or they can’t comprehend and imagine the good that Christ brings into Christmas, hence they chose the use of the negative connotations that ‘X’ represents. You see it in advert through the media, Christmas cards and such like places to undermine the true essence for which Christ was born and named in Christmas.

CHRIST is not the same as ‘X’ connotation. It is not a worthwhile abbreviation either by any margins.

However, there are other opinions about Christmas, while some say Christmas is not important and is not worth any form of commemoration and celebration because

it’s a heathen day, a pagan holiday. Others indicate that December 25th is not the day on which Christ was born and some even claimed it’s in October. Some people also say that He was born spiritual and not with physical nature – not in humanity. According to some it is for pagans and Satanists due to the glamorous events and activities that are now associated to this date especially with the financial indiscipline and indebtedness people entangle themselves into as a result of the celebration. and commemoration in quote.

May I say that just because the enemy perverts and distorts the meaning and essence of the celebration of Christmas, does not mean that we should let go of that which we believe is of God – that is, that Christ was BORN for us all according to the scriptures irrespective of individuals or selective fews indignation of Christ birth in humanity. 1 Timothy 3:16; 1 John 4:1-6.

For me and every supposed Spirit born child of God, what is vital in the whole scenario of indifference is that Christ was born in the flesh – humanity. This is without controversy

as endorsed in 1 Timothy 3:16. Dates and times not withstanding and should not be an issue, but the act of acknowledging this very fact and truth of God in the light of the Holy Scriptures makes the journey of the Christian FAITH meaningful and fulfilling to anyone that believes in Christ Jesus as saviour and Lord as in the scriptures.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And WITHOUT CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of godliness: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH (HUMANITY), JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, SEEN of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

“Beloved, BELIEVE not EVERY spirit, but TRY (EXAMINE) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that CONFESSETH that Jesus Christ is COME in the FLESH (HUMANITY) is of God: 3 and every spirit that CONFESSETH NOT that Jesus Christ is COME in the FLESH (HUMANITY) is NOT of God: and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now ALREADY is it in the WORLD. 4 Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5 They ARE of the WORLD: therefore SPEAK they of the world, and the world HEARETH them. 6 We ARE of God: he that KNOWETH God HEARETH us; he that is NOT of God HEARETH NOT us. Hereby KNOW we the spirit of TRUTH, and the spirit of ERROR” 1 John 4:1-6 (Emphasis Mine).

“That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of EVERY GOOD thing which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

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.

“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.

“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.

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS: “The WORD” Became FLESH – HUMAN – The ANSWER To Your QUEST!

This Christmas is all about “The WORD” that became FLESH – HUMAN, whose FULLNESS is of Grace and Truth. And an ANSWER to ALL our QUEST in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

The world today longs for GRACE and TRUTH in our society, which comes purely and can come only genuinely from “The WORD” that became flesh. God spoke “The WORD”, The WORD was received and born in human flesh – humanity. “The WORD” is Christ – the Messiah, Saviour, Deliverer – the REASON we do commemorate and celebrate this SEASON in this Christmas, in this December and for His REDEMPTION cause on earth to all mankind including you.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

Faith on “The WORD” is all you need, to turn your TEST story to TESTIMONY, your SCARCITY to PLENTY, your FAILURE to SUCCESS, your MESS to MESSAGE,  your SETBACK to STEPPING STONE, your DISAPPOINTMENT to APPOINTMENT, the said SICKNESS and DISEASE to HEALING, HEALTH and WHOLENESS, and many more such like. In summary the ANSWER to your QUEST to have a meaningful, colourful, purposeful and fulfilling life is in the WORD – Jesus the Christ.

“The WORD” is Him – Christ Jesus personified, who is our Saviour King and Lord. He’s our Emmanuel – The God WITH us, IN us and FOR us; the God that DWELLS with us in everyway. “The WORD” is your witness, record and embodiment in heavens unity in Trinity to certify the divine purpose on earth.

Therefore, this CHRISTMAS, as you commemorate and celebrate “The WORD” through faith in Him, may your desire be made manifest in the flesh, that is, comes to reality and fruition; and becomes tangible, reachable, touchable, loveable, liveable, and incarnate.

The WORD is all you need to ANSWER that QUEST that has defiled everything mortal in your life and godly living.

I pray you every grace, blessing and speed in The WORD. Amen.

“And without CONTROVERSY great is the MYSTERY of GODLINESS: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

“Beloved, BELIEVE not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many FALSE prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that CONFESSETH that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH is of God: 3 and every spirit that CONFESSETH NOT that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH is not of God: and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now ALREADY is it in the world” 1 John 4:1-3

Be in control of your well being and let not COMPARISON of others and the LUST to show off, ruin your gracious happiness in Christ and family, in such a time as – This Christmas!

Let it be ‘MERRY CHRISTMAS’ and not a ‘SADDENED CHRISTMAS’ for you, family, love ones and all those you care about.

The Christmas REASON

By Leave a Comment

The Christmas REASON: The Expression SEASON of God’s LOVE to HUMANITY – in RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP!

By virtue of birth, my wonderful children have an awesome RELATIONSHIP with me. But if any is to enjoy a MORE THAN the usual, normal and generalised blessings, they have to engage in a constant FELLOWSHIP to know and understand the path to it, that’s their RESPONSIBILITY.

Much more in the same scenario, by virtue of God’s love in Christ Jesus’ we obtain RELATIONSHIP in our being born of God (comely called Born Again). But if we are to enjoy the fullness of God, we must endeavour to explore a FELLOWSHIP decorum with Him.

Adam lost his FELLOWSHIP at Eden and it cost him at Eden as we know. Jesus in humanity maximise His FELLOWSHIP in His humanity and He made all the difference as we know.

This is not about Church or special programs and busy prayer meetings and schedules, but how much of FELLOWSHIP you are having and engaging with Father God personally. This is good and necessary, in order to enhance and boost your worth in Him and for Him. This is what ‘THIS CHRISTMAS’ in ‘THIS DECEMBER’ and ‘THIS DAY’ should be about – The REASON for the SEASON.

It is the FELLOWSHIP that strengthens RELATIONSHIP. Sin hinders the fellowship and in time destroys and erases the relationship as in Eden. Hence during this SEASON of Christmas, give room for the REASON, that is, God’s love in Christ Jesus in relationship for fellowship to count and account for you and your good.

Make time to be ‘ALONE WITH FATHER GOD’ and have your own ACQUAINTANCE with Him. For LOVE makes Christmas a gracious event while SELFISHNESS (SELF-CENTEREDNESS) makes it a burden and pain.

May you have an amazing Christmas in all you do I pray.

Every Blessing.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“God is faithful, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.  6 If we say that we have FELLOWSHIP with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:  7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have FELLOWSHIP one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin” 1 John 1:5-7.

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there PRAYED (FELLOWSHIP)” Mark 1:35 (Emphasis Mine).

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Psalms 16:11).

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature (CREATION): old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (Emphasis Mine).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

GOD’S GRACE AND BLESSINGS.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

We need to PREPARE a room in the INNER being of our heart for the Lord in this Christmas – Revelation 3:20; Luke 2:7b

* 2ND WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall not over BURDEN the Sale Clerk with your worries – Matthew 6:25-34 (note especially vs. 33 – the need to seek right).

We need not let the worry of gifts – Shoes, games, transport, groceries, clothing’s, jewelleries and other forms of shopping and shoppers, to weigh us down and get us into debt. You need to escape from the bondage of – BUY today for nothing to PAY in WORRIES and ANXIOUSNESS with a HEAVY HEARTS and BURDEN later – resulting and leading to depression.

* 3RD WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall GIVE yourself with your gift – 2 Corinthians 8:1-5; 2 Corinthians 9:7-11; Psalm 49:6-9.

GIVE God your HEART before you GIVE your material gains and gifts: Give me your heart, the Lord requires first before anything. Your life is worth to God than your gift. GIVING IS LIVING.

* 4TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall not VALUE gift by their cost – Luke 21:1-5; Matthew 2:11.

The least expensive gift may speak LOVE and with great hearts than the costly.

* 5TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall not LEAVE (keep) Christ outside Christmas – Matthew 2:13.

Joseph was with Christ during Christmas celebration mood, hence he could hear God of the enemy and cohorts intent and plan – for King Herod’s had set a danger plan against baby Jesus. Don’t let Christmas be used for evil work against you and your family.

* 6TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall not ALLOW Father Christmas to REPLACE Christ in your heart and that of your family – Ephesians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:27; Luke 2:11.

Some will put up some masquerade and sorcery circus acts to display in devilish mood, terrorising and frightening people in the name of Christmas. Don’t get people hurt please. Stay far away from such attraction.

* 7TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall not FORGET and NEGLECT the needy – James 1:27; 2:14-20.

Christmas is a very good time to extend God’s love in you to the needy around you. For the have not will always be among us the scriptures says – Deuteronomy 15:11; Mark 14:7.

* 8TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall not NEGLECT your Church – the place of gathering for Fellowship, serve and Worship of God in Christ Jesus stead – Hebrews 10:25.

What is the Church? It is the voluntary gathering of people to FELLOWSHIP with one another in the LOVE of Christ, to SERVE God ACCEPTABLY and to WORSHIP God WORTHILY in spirit and truth. The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the morning it is called MASS – Celebration and Commemoration while in the evening – it is called BENEDICTION. John 4:20-24; Philippians 3:3; 1 Corinthians 1:9, 1 Corinthians 14:25.

* 9TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall be humble as a LITTLE Child – Mark 10:15. It takes a childhood heart to embrace the spirit of Christ birth for the called Christmas. Hence it’s a time of childhood spirit and not childish attitude which we may see on our streets and community during this period.

* 10TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST:

You shall WORSHIP and give your heart toward God in Christ Jesus – Matthew 2:11; John 3:16; Revelation 3:20; John 1:12. Let Christ be at the top of your Christmas commemoration and celebration. Prepare and decorate your hearts much more to your house.
