HAVING AN UNDERSTANDING IN THE GRACE

HAVING AN UNDERSTANDING IN THE GRACE: IT GIVES THE NEEDED ALTITUDE TO OUTSMART YOUR TEACHERS AND TEXTBOOKS [ANCIENTS]!
 
“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.
 
Having an UNDERSTANDING IN THE GRACE wherein you stand in Christ Jesus – is the needed leverage to be – ABOVE ONLY. It gives you the needed ALTITUDE to outsmart your TEACHERS and TEXTBOOKS in your onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“O how LOVE I thy law! it is my MEDITATION all the day. 98 Thou through thy commandments hast MADE ME WISER than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. 99 I have more UNDERSTANDING than ALL my TEACHERS: for thy testimonies are my meditation. 100 I UNDERSTAND more than THE ANCIENTS, because I keep thy precepts” Psalms 119:97-100.
 
I don’t know who has been your TEACHER, INSTRUCTOR, MENTOR and what kind of ANCIENTS (Books, Biography) you have read or reading or understudy or understudying at this moment, but I have meniature short story of life at sunrise to sunset as a teen.
 
Growing up, I hear this continous phrase that our children should be better than us and they should outsmart one in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. For this cause most parents I know work so hard to ensure that their children become exactly that in many ways, though most of those bulk of work to that greatness, are on the child/children shoulder in order for them to BECOME what they are PURPORTED to be in many ways too.
 
I remembered while getting set for my secondary, my dear father and Dad and Papa of blessed memory called me to his bedroom one early morning which is unusual, to give me an instruction to greatness in my life. He called me many times by my name and asked me, how many times did he called me. I did answered him, then said afterwards, what’s my family name. I answered him again accordingly. He said that as I leave to the Boarding School, I should not forget my name and family name. Meaning, live up to it and ABOVE ALL, I should ensure to be better of than he is and those [patriarchal] before him. Meaning, it’s my RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY to BECOME. I heard him well. And INDEED I heard him in every decision I put up to action in the course of that teenage path of life.
 
“But the PATH of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn, That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18/AMP.
 
“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.
 
And as a young teenage that have accepted Christ Jesus into my life then, the only thing I know and could hear within me, supposedly by the Holy Spirit then, was to be PRINCIPLED in my PATH in order to evade distractions and then become. And out of my given pocket spending while in boarding school, I bought extra textbook or workbook way beyond what the school recommended in syllabus and prospectus, just to top up my intent in GRACE. It was not just necessarily as I recall now and as then to meet up with my loving Dad’s intents or demands, but to ensure that I don’t jeopardize my FAITH in Christ Jesus by being a FAILURE or FAILING student, who then have to live on the mercy of my TEACHERS or TUTORS. I wanted to be ABOVE ONLY. And looking back and taking a reflection, down memory lane, it paid off. Am grateful to Dad. Thank you God for giving him to be my father, Dad and Papa and also as my personal instructors in many ways – and he’s forever in hearts and thoughts.
 
“For though ye have ten thousand INSTRUCTORS in Christ, yet have ye not many FATHERS: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel” 1 Corinthians 4:15.
 
Overtime, my class Tutor, will call me to give my classmates teaching classes while he’s away for staff meeting to keep ORDER and DECENCY in the classroom. And my classmates were so surprised of such accordance by the Classroom Tutor, that two of them came to my hostel one day and stole away my gifted Bible from my dear Uncle Austin [Rev A U MORMAH], as a measure to deter me. Thank God one of them gave his life to Christ Jesus afterwards and now Pastor a Church to God’s glory. Also, during classes, I will ask my Tutors of various interest subjects, questions that they were wandering and wondering how manage and how come if I am using the same teaching syllabus and prospectus materials as others and as requested by the School then. Neither the Teacher nor the students knew then that I have read Psalms 119:97-100 in my Bible, of what I can be if I give in to a principled living as the path to channel my life by God’s WORD.
 
And along with Psalmist Scripture that was an instructional awakening for me to be effectual – productive and results oriented, I do embraced also in principle, and by KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, the essence of DILIGENCE and PREPAREDNESS ahead of demand in context, of the scriptures of Proverbs 22:29 and Proverbs 21:31 for an onward and upward trajectory in life and grace. And ever since I knew then that by the SCRIPTURES in context, I could be tailored to OUTSMART my TEACHERS, INSTRUCTORS, MENTORS and the ANCIENT [written records set before time by others in books and other life format], I could take on any subjects of interest that I willingly set myself up to pursue in the grace. And to simply put it, life is dynamic and evolves in different ways to answer the quest of humanity, that’s why you like me by God, in His grace, in His word, by the Holy Spirit, can be whatever you want to be in Him. And for me, the rest today is history to God’s eternal glory and praise and honour. Amen.
 
I have share the above fortaste to let you know and understand that you can OUTSMART your TEACHERS, INSTRUCTORS, MENTORS and the ANCIENT in that trade and field of ENDEAVOURS, if you give yourself to the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of that SUBJECT in question. I know God’s WORD works for all who will DILIGENTLY with gracious delight look up to the WORD as the WISDOM NUGGETS in doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING in this world under God in Christ Jesus stead.
 
Therefore, in all your getting, get UNDERSTANDING in the light of the SCRIPTURES on that subjects of life – Trade, Family, Marriage, Relationship, Business, Career, Leadership, Enterprise and such like – for you are the CUSTODIAN of your happiness and joy and not someone else except you give them the permission to rule and dominate over your will power in the grace. [Proverbs 4:7]. This is to enhance the BEST of God in you in order to make it TANGIBLE, LIVEABLE, LOVEABLE, REACHABLE, COMPREHENSIBLE and DELIVERABLE as desired in the LIGHT of the Scriptures. God’s WORD works today and and it’s more ASSURED now than ever before as you choose to ensure it in principle in the grace wherein we stand by God in Christ Jesus. Amen. [Romans 5:1-2].
 
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:
“The beginning of WISDOM is: Get [skillful and godly] wisdom [it is preeminent]! And with all your ACQUIRING, get UNDERSTANDING [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation]” Proverbs 4:7/AMP.
 
“O how love I thy law! it is my MEDITATION all the day. 98 Thou through thy commandments hast MADE ME WISER than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. 99 I have more UNDERSTANDING than all my TEACHERS: for thy testimonies are my meditation. 100 I UNDERSTAND more than THE ANCIENTS, because I keep thy precepts” Psalms 119:97-100.
 
“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before KINGS [HONOUR, DIGNITY]; he shall not STAND before MEAN MEN [UNPRODUCTIVE, SLOTHFUL]” Proverbs 22:29/Emphasis Mine.
 
“But without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.
 
“The HORSE is PREPARED against THE DAY OF BATTLE: but safety is of the Lord” Proverbs 21:31.
 
“The PLANS and PREPARATION of the mind and ORDERLY THINKING belong to man, but from the Lord comes the [wise] answer of the tongue. 2 All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the spirits (the thoughts and intents of the heart). 3 Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your PLANS be established and succeed . . . 9 A man’s mind PLANS his way, but the Lord directs his steps and makes them sure” Proverbs 16:1-3, 9/AMP.

THE ESSENCE OF WISDOM IN DOING LIFE

By Leave a Comment

THE ESSENCE OF WISDOM IN DOING LIFE: THE PRINCIPLE OF HAVING ZEAL/PASSION, KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING!
 
“WISDOM is GOOD with an inheritance:and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. 12 For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that WISDOM GIVETH LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:11-12.
 
WISDOM, the excellent enabling to stand upon in grace in order to do life and godliness and to BECOME in God’s BLESSEDNESS is worth the pursuit in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And Jesus Christ is become our wisdom in God to excellently do life and live godly as it’s written in the Holy Writ:
 
“. . . 22 For THE JEWS REQUIRE A SIGN, AND THE GREEKS SEEK AFTER WISDOM: 23 but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 but unto them which are CALLED, both Jews and Greeks, CHRIST THE POWER OF GOD, and THE WISDOM OF GOD . . 30 But of him are ye in CHRIST JESUS, who of God is MADE unto us WISDOM, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption . . .” 1 Corinthians 1:22-31.
 
And it’s high time to desire this PRINCIPAL thing – called WISDOM, in one’s PASSIONATE endeavour; and to pursue life with or by PASSION/ZEAL, there is the need for KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, in all sphere that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING. For therein is the PATH to GRACIOUSNESS and GRACEFULNESS in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.
 
“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.
 
To ensure the essence of WISDOM for excellence in all about doing life and living godly, herein for your perusal, are PRINCIPLES to think and ponder upon in respect to the pursuit in principle, of – PASSION/ZEAL, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING – to ensure WISDOM:
 
PRINCIPLE 1 – THE PASSION/ZEAL ESSENCE:
 
PASSION, meaning Zeal, strong feeling or intensely emotional about something, is a vitality to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. ZEAL – otherwise PASSION, is good for the living in doing life, but if without KNOWLEDGE, it’s dangerous and deadly in WISDOM ESSENCE, meaning, it can lead to foolishness and frustration. Hence a mere passion or being passionate or zealous about something, is not enough to carry one through in life’s PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. One needs KNOWLEDGE to enhance the PASSION or ZEAL to a fruitful end. It thus also mean that being passionate about something’s as in – Career, Marriage, Relationship, Skill, Trade, Governance, Leadership, Ministry and such like the more, can only be meaningful when there’s an added KNOWLEDGE to such desired PASSION. And this is simply the reason and why, as it’s written for our knowing:
 
“Brethren, my heart’s DESIRE and PRAYER to God for Israel is, that they might be SAVED. 2 For I bear them record that they have a ZEAL (PASSION) of God, but not ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE. 3 For they being IGNORANT of GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS, and going about to ESTABLISH their OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not SUBMITTED themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the END of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth” Romans 10:1-4 (Emphasis Mine).
 
PRINCIPLE 2 – THE KNOWLEDGE ESSENCE:
 
KNOWLEDGE is not very much appreciated until you’ve experience effect of IGNORANCE. Having the needed knowledge for a thing is very vital in our cause to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. This is to enhance one’s endeavours with the required or expected KNOWLEDGE for proficiency and for effectual and efficient results.
 
However, be it known, that as good as KNOWLEDGE is important, it is not enough except there’s an UNDERSTANDING to that KNOWLEDGE in order to make a purpose meaningful and fulfilling. A mere KNOWLEDGE without UNDERSTANDING puffed (PRIDES) up and it’s dangerous. And KNOWLEDGE is good, but if without UNDERSTANDING, it breeds arrogance and rudeness. It’s for the limitation in WISDOM ESSENCE, that there’s the need to add UNDERSTANDING to one’s KNOWLEDGE even as it’s written:
“Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. KNOWLEDGE PUFFED UP, but charity edifieth. 2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. 3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him” 1 Corinthians 8:1-3 (Emphasis Mine).
 
PRINCIPLE 3 – THE UNDERSTANDING ESSENCE:
 
UNDERSTANDING what you KNOW and PASSIONATE about is the key to WISDOM for one’s life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. Hence where ZEAL (passion) and KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING are together in operation in one’s doings of anything, therein is the WISDOM ESSENCE. More so, one can then do life effectually, because the needed WISDOM ESSENCE will give one the enabling to live an accomplished and fulfilled life.
 
For until one UNDERSTANDS full well what one is KNOWLEDGEABLE and PASSIONATE about, there will be life struggle to ensure a THRIVING, COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL and FULFILLING LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Hence, the need to get UNDERSTANDING as it’s written:
 
“WISDOM is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and WITH ALL THE GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7 (Emphasis Mine).
 
“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS is HARD (Difficult, Challenging, Rough, Struggling)” Proverbs 13:15.
 
“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (Unproductive, Ignorant, Foolish, Unwise)” Proverbs 21:16.
 
Wisdom essence will always show up when one ensures that there’s a mixture of Passion, knowledge and understanding in one’s act of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“Through WISDOM is an house BUILDED; and by UNDERSTANDING it is ESTABLISHED: 4 and by KNOWLEDGE shall the chambers be FILLED with all precious and pleasant riches. 5 A WISE man is STRONG; yea, a man of KNOWLEDGE increaseth STRENGTH. 6 For by WISE counsel thou shalt MAKE thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety” Proverbs 24:3-6.
 
“Who is as the WISE man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? A MAN’S WISDOM MAKETH HIS FACE TO SHINE, and the boldness of his face shall be changed” Ecclesiastes 8:1.
 
“My child, LISTEN to what I say, and TREASURE my commands. 2 Tune your ears to WISDOM, and concentrate on UNDERSTANDING. 3 Cry out for insight, and ask for UNDERSTANDING. 4 Search for them as you would for silver; seek them like HIDDEN TREASURES. 5 Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord, and you will gain KNOWLEDGE of God. 6 For the Lord GRANTS WISDOM! From his mouth come KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. 7 He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest. He is a shield to those who walk with integrity. 8 He guards the paths of the just and protects those who are faithful to him. 9 Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair, and you will find the right way to go. 10 For wisdom will enter your heart, and KNOWLEDGE will FILL you with joy. 11 WISE choices will WATCH over you. UNDERSTANDING will KEEP you safe. 12 WISDOM will SAVE you from evil people, from those whose words are twisted. 13 These men turn from the right way to walk down dark paths. 14 They take pleasure in doing wrong, and they enjoy the twisted ways of evil. 15 Their actions are crooked, and their ways are wrong. 16 WISDOM will SAVE you from the immoral woman, from the seductive words of the promiscuous woman. 17 She has abandoned her husband and ignores the covenant she made before God” Proverbs 2:1-17 New Living Translation (NLT).
 
“The kingdom of heaven is like a [very precious] TREASURE hidden in a field, which a man found and hid again; then in his joy he goes and sells all he has and buys that field [securing the treasure for himself]. 45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, 46 and upon finding a single pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it” Matthew 13:44-46 Amplified.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: DELIVERS AND EMANCIPATES ONE FROM DECEPTION

By Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: DELIVERS AND EMANCIPATES ONE FROM DECEPTION – ERRORS [BEING MISTAKEN]!
 
“Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29.
 
“Jesus answered and said to them, “YOU ARE MISTAKEN, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 (NKJV).
 
Erring or being mistaken in Scriptural terms indicates an act of DECEPTION – the idea of being DECEIVED and DECEIVING; but the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” sets one FREE from DECEPTION – from being MISTAKEN, walking erroneously in a world where many wants to be RATIONALISTS to the Scriptural truth which is – The living WORD of God.
 
That’s why sometimes if not most times, you hear or observed people who in a way to cover up their deception and ignorance, will say – GOD UNDERSTANDS. God understands what? Their erroneous or deceptions or ignorance or state of being mistaken? God doesn’t approve any act of contradictory to His WORD in any context of doing life and living godly. God is in bond with His WORD irrespective to whom and what context it’s applicable.
 
God wants you to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the TRUTH that SETS you FREE, by you making an intentional commitment to see that the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING is your own personal RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY and not someone else’s. Meaning God wants you to be principled to DO or be DOING – that is – to Be DOER of His WORD and not RATIONALISTS, in order for you to be BLESSED in your DEED in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [James 1:22-25].
 
“But be ye DOERS OF THE WORD, and not HEARERS ONLY, DECEIVING YOUR OWN SELVES. 23 For if any be a HEARER OF THE WORD, and NOT A DOER, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a DOER of the work, this man shall be BLESSED in his DEED” James 1:22-25.
 
Herein are three INCAPACITIES state of the RATIONALISTS though not limited in the following context:
1. SELF DECEPTION (Romans 1:18-32).
2. IGNORANCE OF THE SPIRITUAL CONTENT OF THE SCRIPTURES (Acts 13:27; Matthew 22:15-46).
3. THE DISBELIEF IN THE INTERVENTION OF DIVINE POWERS IN MATTERS OF LIFE AND GODLY LIVING (2 Peter 3:1-9; 2 Peter 1:2-4).
 
God does not wants us to be DECEIVED – living and walking in errors due to our ERRING on Scriptural Truth and in our IGNORANCE (lack of knowledge and understanding) of the “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY”. More so, God does not want us to be RATIONALIST to His WORD or RATIONALISING His WORD either, if indeed we want to live in the context of TRUTH and receive the accompanying result of TRUTH and being TRUTHFUL in Him.
 
This Is WISDOM – having the KNOWING And UNDERSTANDING that ensures and assures you of the enabling GRACE to STAND And BECOME in Christ Jesus Stead.
 
I pray you get WISDOM in KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING in order to ensure you are stable in SPIRITUAL MATTERS that pertain to LIVING LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead. AMEN.
 
THIS IS THE WISDOM – THE KNOWING And UNDERSTANDING – THAT ENSURES AND ASSURED THE GRACE TO STAND AND BECOME IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN.
 
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29.
 
“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are MISTAKEN, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 (NKJV).
 
“And the TIMES of this IGNORANCE God WINKED AT; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.
 
“But be ye DOERS OF THE WORD, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not A DOER, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a DOER of the work, this man shall be BLESSED in his DEED” James 1:22-25.
 
“O how love I thy law! it is my MEDITATION all the day. 98 Thou through thy COMMANDMENTS hast MADE me WISER than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. 99 I have more UNDERSTANDING than ALL my TEACHERS: for thy testimonies are my meditation. 100 I UNDERSTAND more than the ANCIENTS, because I keep thy precepts” Psalms 119:97-100.
 
“For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being UNDERSTOOD by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are WITHOUT EXCUSE: 21 because that, when they KNEW God, they GLORIFIED HIM NOT as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools” Romans 1:20-22.
 
“For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they KNEW HIM NOT, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him” Acts 13:27.
 
“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us ALL THINGS that pertain unto LIFE and GODLINESS, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are GIVEN unto us exceeding great and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4.
 
“. . . 8 But, beloved, BE NOT IGNORANT of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” 2 Peter 3:1-9.
 
Further Scriptural Reading Text: 2 Peter 3:1-9.

IT TAKES UNDERSTANDING TO PROFIT IN THE GRACE

By Leave a Comment

IT TAKES UNDERSTANDING TO PROFIT IN THE GRACE: GET THE UNDERSTANDING IN ALL YOUR KNOWING AND PASSION!
 
“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with ALL thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.
 
The principle of good success, excellence and genuine prosperity, is built on a process. That’s why whatever happens without a process is a fraud, for even in our redemption, our God, ensures it all works out in a process to and in Christ Jesus, and not by magical appearance. For genuine miracle is a consequence of God’s WORD that’s scripturally activated in a process within the context. Hence I have always said, and will always say, ‘until you UNDERSTAND whatever you claimed to KNOW or to have KNOWN in any matter of life and godliness, you are not better than the IGNORANT and the UNWISE fool’.
 
For the wisdom to succeed, prosper and excel in life is the application of knowledge. And the act of application requires an understanding of the process of the matter in context. So, there’s the need for the understanding to accompany any knowledgeable context, in order for the needed wisdom that attracts divine favours to be in operations.
 
“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS [Ignorant, puff up, fool, disobedient] is HARD [Difficult Challenging, Rough]” Proverbs 13:15/Emphasis Mine.
 
Having an idea is good, understanding your idea is another ball game. I have seen the assumed rich fall from the penthouse glory to be a beggar and have seen the one time poverty stricken rise to grace from grass. All because the assume rich just landed into wealth by a mere knowledge and zeal without understanding the take and know-how to sustain the position; while the once poverty stricken took to knowledge know-how along with understanding of the journey, arrives there, lives to sustain it, in spite of all challenges and changes of sphere, in life weather conditions.
 
“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION (Gathering, Places) of the dead (Unproductive, Foolish , Ignorant)” Proverbs 21:16/Emphasis Mine.
In the context of discussion, it thus means that:
 
Knowing your spouse is good, but if you don’t understand each other, there’s going to be a bomb explosion one day.
 
Being educated in a career or trade is good, but not understanding your career or trade will cause you a problem to yourself and to others probably one day.
 
Being a Gospel Minister is a gracious privilege. But not understanding the etiquette of being a Shepherd of looking well over God’s heritage will make you a hypocrite and wolf in sheep clothing.
 
Being a leader or in government or position of making decision is good, but if you lack the understanding for leadership and governance, you will destroy the RESOURCES of such position in terms of – PEOPLE, TIME, EFFORTS [PHYSICAL/MENTAL EXERTION], MATERIAL [EQUIPMENT] and FINANCE under your watch.
 
More so, a lack of UNDERSTANDING will cause you to always REACT, make EXCUSES and BLAME others for your inadequacy; It will cause you not to take RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for your actions; and a lack of PURPOSEFUL UNDERSTANDING to achieving meaningful RESULTS.
 
In UNDERSTANDING, the PURPOSE of a thing is ACHIEVE with GRACE. A lack of ALL NEEDED UNDERSTANDING makes people live a life without PURPOSE for themselves and others. It’s time to be PRINCIPLED by doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY through UNDERSTANDING in the GRACE wherein we stand to become all that God in Christ Jesus has done in us, is doing in us and through us by His WORD and the blessed HOLY SPIRIT of grace. Amen.
 
I know why the difference, the scriptures has an answer in all in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: GIVES ETERNAL LIFE ACCESS – IN OUR REDEMPTION!
 
“These words spake Jesus, and LIFTED UP HIS EYES TO HEAVEN, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 as thou hast given Him power over ALL FLESH, that He should give ETERNAL LIFE to as many as thou hast given Him. 3 And this is LIFE ETERNAL, that they might KNOW thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have FINISHED THE WORK which thou gavest Me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou Me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was . . . 24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given Me, be with Me where I am; that they may behold My glory, which thou hast given Me: for thou lovedst Me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, the world hath NOT KNOWN thee: but I have KNOWN thee, and these have KNOWN that thou hast sent Me . . .” John 17:1-26.
 
The most profound High Priest PRAYERS for the CHURCH, the BODY OF CHRIST of which you ARE and can be a PARTAKER of the grace in the Scriptures, was OFFERED by our Lord Jesus Christ while at the verged of the closure of His earthly Ministry in humanity, for the REDEMPTION of mankind – and that includes you knowingly and unknowingly.
 
“Giving thanks to the Father who has QUALIFIED us to be PARTAKERS of the INHERITANCE of the saints in the light. 13 He has DELIVERED us from the POWER of darkness and CONVEYED us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through His blood, the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV.
 
In the Holy Writ Book of John Chapter 17 is written of the most comprehensive INTERCESSORY PRAYERS ever made for the CAUSE of the good of His Church. Jesus in one of the verses OFFERED PRAYERS to the FATHER God that we might come to a place in the grace of the KNOWING [KNOWLEDGE] of the HOLY ONE [FATHER GOD and SON], so that we can ACTUALISE and LIVE in the REALM [SPHERE] of ETERNAL LIFE. A realm wherein we can comprehensively grab the fullness of His DONE DEED for us in Christ.
 
Christ Jesus was and is praying that – We might KNOW our Father God and Him [Christ Jesus] who was SENT by the Father, this thus indicates there is graciousness and gracefulness to attain in such REALM of PRAYERS – [John 17:3]. That is the REALM that can ENSURE that we can be able to articulate and authenticate His WILL [TESTAMENT] in Heaven into our Earthly affairs as He taught the Disciples and as us, on the HOW TO PRAY. Amen.
 
“And it came to pass, that, AS HE WAS PRAYING in a certain place, when he ceased, one of His disciples said unto him, LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY, as John also taught his disciples. 2 And He said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, AS IN HEAVEN, SO IN EARTH. 3 Give us day by day our daily bread. 4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil” Luke 11:1-4.
 
ETERNAL LIFE is the ETERNITY realm of God in doing life. And for us to actualise the fullness of our REDEMPTION in Him, we need to synchronize our spirit-being to that of the ETERNAL LIFE realm of God.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: GIVES ETERNAL LIFE ACCESS – IN OUR REDEMPTION!
 
“These words spake Jesus, and LIFTED UP HIS EYES TO HEAVEN, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 as thou hast given Him power over ALL FLESH, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is LIFE ETERNAL, that they might KNOW thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou Me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was . . . 24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold My glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, the world hath NOT KNOWN thee: but I have KNOWN thee, and these have KNOWN that thou hast sent me . . .” John 17:1-26.
 
The most profound High Priest PRAYERS for the CHURCH, the BODY OF CHRIST of which you are and can be a partaker of the grace in the Scriptures, was OFFERED by our Lord Jesus Christ while at the verged of the closure of His earthly Ministry in humanity, for the REDEMPTION of mankind.
In the Holy Writ Book of John Chapter 17 is written of the most comprehensive INTERCESSORY PRAYERS ever made for the CAUSE of the good of His Church. Jesus in one of the verses OFFERED PRAYERS to the FATHER God that we might come to a place in grace of the KNOWING [KNOWLEDGE] of the HOLY ONE [FATHER GOD AND SON], so that we can ACTUALISE and LIVE in the REALM [SPHERE] of ETERNAL LIFE. A realm wherein we can comprehensively grab the fullness of His DONE DEED for us in Christ.
 
Christ Jesus was and is praying that – We might KNOW our Father God and Him [Christ Jesus] who was SENT by the Father, this thus indicates there is graciousness and gracefulness to attain in such REALM of PRAYERS – [John 17:3]. That is the REALM that can ENSURE that we can be able to ensure – articulate and authenticate – His WILL [TESTAMENT] in Heaven into our Earthly affairs as He taught the disciples and us, on the HOW TO PRAY. Amen.
 
“And it came to pass, that, AS HE WAS PRAYING in a certain place, when he ceased, one of His disciples said unto him, LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY, as John also taught his disciples. 2 And He said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, AS IN HEAVEN, SO IN EARTH. 3 Give us day by day our daily bread. 4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil” Luke 11:1-4.
 
ETERNAL LIFE is the ETERNITY realm of God in doing life. And for us to actualise the fullness of our REDEMPTION in Him, we need to synchronize our spirit-being to that of the ETERNAL LIFE realm of God. For Father God has indeed, planted ETERNITY in us all – [Ecclesiastes 3:11/NKJV/AMP]. This is made possible by having the knowing and understanding of THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY in us.
 
“He has MADE everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man CANNOT find out [comprehend, grasp] what God has done [His overall plan] from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 [Amplified].
 
May I make bold to say that it is in keeping your eternal spirit-being alive that one can comprehend in essence the work [working] of God in man. And we are expected to WALK in this ETERNITY REALM if indeed we LIVE in this REALM too – [Galatians 5:25]]. Do you? And if not, it’s time to keep to the expected in order to make your prayers EASIER [EFFORTLESSLY] in the grace wherein we stand by God in Christ Jesus stead. For the eternal realm of eternity in the grace, is far beyond the realms of the FIVE SENSES. For the eternity realm of God in Christ Jesus stead for us is the REALM wherein the FIVE SENSES of mental facilities of reasoning, has been subjected and trained to the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of the WORD of God, in order to sensitized and synchronised in practice, the difference between God’s DIVINE testament realm from the human sense and mental faculties realm of reasons, that’s limited in all ramifications.
 
“But solid food is for full-grown men, for those whose SENSES and MENTAL faculties are TRAINED by practice to discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and noble and what is evil and contrary either to DIVINE or HUMAN law” Hebrews 5:14/Amplified Classic Edition.
 
I pray that you will see the need to articulate and synchronised your spirit BEING to this ETERNAL LIFE realm of eternity in the grace, in order to give and allow the HEAVENLY ACCESS to your EARTHLY affairs to ease your path of doing life and living godly, in Christ Jesus. Amen.

THE HOLY BIBLE – The Timeless Time Book of RECORDS: Embrace It – Love It – Read It – You Will Be Fulfilled!
 
“By faith [that is, with an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God] we understand that the WORLDS (universe, ages) were FRAMED and CREATED [formed, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose] by THE WORD of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible” Hebrews 11:3 AMPLIFIED.
 
The precious Holy BIBLE is my TIMELESS Book of life for the TIME World, which I term as B-I-B-L-E: ‘Blessed Information Bringing Life Eternal’. Which I hereby recommend highly to you in everyway to enable you DO LIFE and LIVE GODLY in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
The Holy Bible – is the timeless writ for our time Generation and Dispensation – and it’s informative for your transformation. Get a copy and study it – it will build up in God and gives you access to God’s given inheritance and godly way to do life in the world.
 
“And now I COMMEND you to God [placing you in His protective, loving care] and [I commend you] to THE WORD of His grace [the counsel and promises of His unmerited favor]. His grace is able to BUILD you up and to GIVE you the [rightful] INHERITANCE among all those who are SANCTIFIED [that is, among those who are set apart for God’s purpose—all believers]” Acts 20:32 AMPLIFIED.
 
In various multimedia formats and individuals conversations today, you can hear people saying we are in 21st century, and as such we should do away with some sorts in the Bible because it conflict with their current time and momentum in life, which is just to suit their selfish, popular choices and demonic and lustful intents.
 
And even in some ungodly minded government and churches quarters have dive into discussing matters within the Bible they should be completely be far away from, simply because they wants to please self and popular choices to keep their votes and job; and as such are not necessarily or of necessity, seeing the divinity of the Holy Writ – The HOLY BIBLE which is The TIMELESS WORD of God and ANSWERS to the TIME World of today and tomorrow.
 
Surely today, at various levels, the individual or collective instigators are paying for the price of this errors everyday and everyway which some people ignorantly overlooked. Look at nations, churches and individuals involved, their days are numbered with the DIVINE WORD of God judgement on them with the nature of conflicts as to hunger, war, terrorism, natural and unnatural pandemic sicknesses and diseases, bad governance and decisions, amidst with some terrible natural and human causes to deal with now and then.
 
May I inform all with such adulterated prejudice and sentiments and dissimulation, that the BIBLE is a timeless record of God’s intent to all mankind for all ages. It’s as relevant today as it was yesterday and will be same tomorrow, in spite of individual or collective force against it.
 
“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.
 
You needs to know that OTHER BOOKS YOU READ, but the BIBLE READS YOU, and it’s the ONLY Book that the Author is always present as you read to give you knowledge and understanding of its content and context. That is the mark difference in all too. It may seems a mystery book, but it’s not mystical. It’s not a book you conjure but a book you do life with because it’s a timeless practicable book; and its revealing, inspiring and Empowering to those who looks up to it.
 
You can either love it or hate it. It does not need my help or any to defend it’s purpose. May I remind you that it is a two-edged tool to work for the good of all that loves it and to work against all that hates it’s appearances.
 
I urge you to choose and love the Timeless Holy Book call – BIBLE, for your own good.
Let The Holy Writ – The TIMELESS WORD For The TIME World – The HOLY BIBLE – Answers To Your QUEST Today – You Will Found FULFILMENT In Everyway. Amen.

IT’S TIMELESS TIMES – SUCH A TIME AS THIS GENERATION

IT’S TIMELESS TIMES – SUCH A TIME AS THIS GENERATION: DON’T BE IN A DESPONDENT STATE – SEEK A FRIEND, PASTOR, COUNSELOR!
 
“Without COUNSEL PURPOSES ARE DISAPPOINTED: but in the MULTITUDE of COUNSELLORS they are ESTABLISHED” Proverbs 15:22.
 
It’s TIMELESS TIMES with many reasons to be in DESPONDENT state – an UNHEALTHY state – and in such time as of this generation, you don’t have to be in a DESPONDENT state. And to have leverage and an onward and upward trajectory of God in Christ Jesus stead, it’s your time to crave, seek, pursue and follow the path that will help you get the needed KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING through counselling – so that you might thrive and live towards an onwards and upwards trajectory, from every dark and darkness that has bewildered or is bewildering you right now in cause of time and in life. Know of a truth that there’s light of God to shine out of the midst of the dark and darkness by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“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.
 
More so, you can get helps through finding [and confiding on] a reliable and trusted FRIEND, PASTOR and COUNSELOR to help you out of any of the dark and darkness in whatever form of DESPONDENCY into the light of life in Christ Jesus stead; and by such wisdom nugget counsel, you can thrive and live again in God’s grace, wisdom and speed in everyway in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“A man that hath friends must SHEW himself FRIENDLY: and there is a friend that STICKETH CLOSER than a brother” Proverbs 18:24.
 
It’s always good and healthy for me in taking or making out time – on a one to one timeline – to share life matter with my gracious person amongst many, a gracious and TRUSTED Sister, friend and confident person at relax and leisure moment when it matters without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation. And you can find one and keep it alive, refreshing, rejuvenating, rekindling and ongoing while it last as I do.
 
Life is good and enriching with God and for you, in having one good, God reverential fearing Friend, Pastor and or Counselor; having one of them at least that you can rely upon and trust without shame, fear, sentiments, and you can also be honest and open-hearted toward, to share with – even in tears on a shameful fault without being judgemental, that will help you and give you the enabling gracious path that you need to ensure and assure you thrive again; and to fulfil the God-given and God-driven-purpose that’s being affected by your current despondent state.
 
“Without COUNSEL PURPOSES ARE DISAPPOINTED: but in the MULTITUDE of COUNSELLORS they are ESTABLISHED” Proverbs 15:22.
 
It’s true that there may have been many disappointed friend, pastor and or counselor to TRUST and RELY UPON, but I know you can still be able to find one TRUSTED one among many, as you ensure you are TRUSTWORTHY too in expecting same from OTHERS. And you can find one today, that can BOOSTER your FAITH, HOPE and LOVE of God in Christ Jesus stead, no matter how bad it seems; this is only possible if you can make an effort to reach out to them without shame, pride and arrogance, rather than staying in a state of being DESPONDENT about life generally – for there’s a gracious opportunities out there under God, to give you the leverage you need for an onward and upward trajectory in doing life and loving godly by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine HEART, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.
 
Just as we seek after trusted Pastor’s and friends, to FEED us without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation, it’s important to ensure that such counsel and counselling of help it’s built on the PRINCIPLE of rightful knowledge and understanding in God’s Word to authenticate your redemption in Christ Jesus – this is to enable you do life in the grace, effectually and efficiently; hence, you must endeavour to get a trusted, and God reverential fearing FRIEND – PASTOR – COUNSELOR, that won’t market you for their selfish, self-centerdness and self-gratification, while on your part, you can be HONEST enough to detail matters even to a fault and feel safe in everyway in LIFE and GRACE.
 
Although it may be rare to get a trusted, honest and God reverential fearing sometimes, but they ARE there who are of a goodwill and love of God in Christ Jesus stead, when you take a step of faith to act by the Holy Spirit within you for direction. You mustn’t stand or sit STATIC in life and suffer in the midst of endless helps out there for your good and well-being. God has more to do in and through you than you can imagine in your LONE or LONELY path or self-defeat position. No matter how bad things are about you today to be cornered to a despondent state, always remember this scriptural thoughts:
 
“. . . 16 for a just [justified, righteous] man FALLETH seven times, and RISETH up again . . .” Proverbs 24:15-18/Emphasis Mine.
 
It’s time to BELIEVE again in order to create, innovate, initiate and explore God’s given opportunity and endowment that are out there. Get a trusted and faithful friend and or Pastor and or counselor, that you can sit together and share your hearts without shame, fear and prejudice even if it’s to a fault by being honest to yourself and to God and to your counselor.
 
There’s hope in God. There’s a miracle. God is faithful, true and sure. His gift and callings are without repentance [irrevocable] except you refused yourself of God’s enabling opportunity in His grace and BLESSEDNESS. I know it, hence I challenge you today – don’t give up due to one mistake or failure or moment that went very badly directly or indirectly by you. In God, there’s a rising up again. DON’T BE A LONER WHERE THERE’S OPPORTUNITY AND HOPE IN CHRIST JESUS!
 
May you find a reason to rise again today. God loves and cares about you, even so do in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

THE EAGLE WAY: LEADERSHIP AND MENTORSHIP!

By Leave a Comment

THE EAGLE WAY: LEADERSHIP AND MENTORSHIP!

“For unto us a CHILD IS BORN, unto us a SON IS GIVEN (MADE): and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace . . .” Isaiah 9:6-7/Emphasis Mine [Read Galatians 4:1-7].

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

The EAGLE unlike the OSTRICH is known for replicating it’s kind, that is, are DILIGENT in making the EAGLET to become another KING of the Sky. It’s a believe that the sky is so wide and broad that there can be no room for clashes and jealousy for any that WILLS DILIGENTLY, to BECOME; and to MAKE others to be on the sky. That’s the earnest act that makes the Eagle to turn the Eaglet to be king of the sky. This phenomenon is same, whether in FAMILY, MINISTRY, BUSINESS, CAREER, POLITICS, LEADERSHIP, CHARITABLE CAUSES and SUCH LIKES; it is in every endeavour of human acts of doing life.

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

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

Stop being a BOSS today! Be a LEADER and start MENTORING. Stop being a headless chicken WANDERING around, locate a LEADER and SUBMIT to MENTORSHIP. Don’t be a SHEEP without a SHEPHERD. Greatness is within your reach, cleave to the wind – the Holy Spirit – He will glide you to greatness if you are willing and obedient.

Greatness Is Within Your Reach. It’s Time for Productivity – THE EAGLE WAY.

I PRAY YOU LEARN WISDOM TODAY.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION

By Leave a Comment

MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION: THE PRINCIPAL PHASES TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND!

I have come to know and understand in over four decades walking and working in grace, that there are four (4) principle phases or acts of Redemption, that every Born Child of God in Christ MUST come to know and understand, to help them APPROPRIATE and ENACT their REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus with ease.

The KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of these principle phases or acts of REDEMPTION will keep you afloat in grace as MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; otherwise one will be a wanderer and wondering in the congregation of IGNORANCE no matter how long you’ve been around ‘in Christ’ or ‘in Church life’. Knowledge and understanding DELIVERS!

THESE PRINCIPAL PHASES ARE:

Phase 1: What God, through Christ DID FOR US in His great Substitution Work in Redemption.

Phase 2: What the Holy Spirit, through the WORD, DOES IN US in the New Birth and in the in-filling of the Holy Spirit.

Phase 3: What Jesus is DOING FOR US now in His Present-Day Ministry at the Right-Hand of Father God.

Phase 4: What His WORD and His LOVE DO THROUGH US in Gospel Ministry.

Knowing and understanding these will change your in look (Insights) and outlook (Foresights) in Redemption. Appropriating and Enacting your MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION will BECOME ease and norm in living and doing life.
