THE ESSENCE OF WISDOM IN DOING LIFE

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.

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.

“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.

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.

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

By Leave a Comment

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.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS

By Leave a Comment

MORE THAN CONQUERORS: APPROPRIATE AND ENACT TO RECEIVE YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN REDEMPTION!

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth . . . 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGHT, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12.
 
One gracious and graceful thing God DID FOR US in REDEMPTION by Christ Jesus was to ensure and authentic that we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; hence, Christ Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE GIFTS to us, as our RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in HIM.
 
And Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE to us these REDEMPTION rights and privileges to enable us stay afloat as MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION.
 
There are Seven(7) Spiritual blessings and Five (5) Ministerial gifts BLESSEDNESS, which are firstly in the heavenly places, and we are to appropriate and enact them on earth. Today, we can virtually see the five in manifestation and operation, but there’s a struggle of the seven, in the Believers day to day living. But Why?
 
When you watch some ACTS and LISTEN to the use of WORD in the cause of most PRAYERS, TEACHING and PREACHING, you wonder if indeed some people knows that what God has given them, which on their part would only requires ACCEPTANCE with THANKSGIVING for THANKS-LIVING, to help one APPROPRIATE and ENACT it into REALITY effortless and without sweat.
 
In life, when you are given something, say a gift, you receive it with acceptance and with thanksgiving.
 
You don’t go about ASKING again and again for what’s already GIVEN to you. Unfortunately that’s what most Believers have made their acts in PRAYERS, and go further, even in their FASTING galore to measure spirituality – instead of RECEIVING and GIVING THANKS to God the Father in the name of Jesus, they go about ASKING and ASKING and ASKING . . . Instead of them to see the need to maintain a heart of GRATITUDE as the main ATTITUDE, in which they will then enhance their ALTITUDE in life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead in God’s BLESSEDNESS.
 
Most times religious obligations, traditions, oblations and bye-laws dogmas has kept us in a particular routine with no substance that can do us any good in Christ. We FAST and PRAY for same thing and stay in same acts and process just because it seems good religiously and to our sentiments and sensual feelings, even when it’s obvious we are acting and praying AMISS and in ERRORS. That’s not the Gospel of God in our Redemption in Christ Jesus stead; and as such, we can’t APPROPRIATE and ENACT our rights and privileges WHOLLY and live MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION.
 
Therefore, it’s your time to express with RECEIVING, THANKSGIVING for THANKS-LIVING, your rights and privileges in these seven (7) key REDEMPTION DONE DEED for us in Christ Jesus stead. THESE ARE:
 
POWER (Authority) – In place of fear, oppression, intimidation etc (Luke 10:19; 2 Timothy 1:7 etc).
 
RICHES (Prosperity) – In place of poverty, hunger, famine, lack etc (3 John 2; 2 Corinthians 8:9; Philippians 4:19; Ephesians 1:3).
 
WISDOM (Mental) – Sound mind & mental IQ in place of ignorance, foolishness etc (James 1:5; Luke 2:40, 52 etc).
 
STRENGTH (Physique) – In place of weakness, sickness, and all ‘ness etc (Philippians 4:13; Isaiah 40:28-30 etc).
 
HONOUR (Dignity) – In place of dishonour, shame, disdain, inferiority etc (Colossians 1:13-14; Ephesians 1:7; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21).
 
GLORY (Beauty & Adoration) – In place of reproach, embarrassment, ashes, shame etc (Isaiah 63:3; 1 Peter 2:5, 9 etc).
 
BLESSING (Empowering & Bestowed Grace) – In place of curses, setbacks, stagnation etc (Ephesians 1:3; Proverbs 10:22; 2 Peter 1:2-4 etc).
 
I pray that THESE that Christ has RECEIVED and GIVEN us in His REDEMPTION DEED will be APPROPRIATED and ENACTED in our life accordingly for an effortless mark without sweat in doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

WHEN YOU PRAY: PRAY IN WISDOM!

WHEN YOU PRAY: PRAY IN WISDOM!

God will only answer to a PURPOSEFUL demand – His answering ensures His POWER and GRACE to enable one to FUNCTION and to BECOME – in Christ Jesus stead.

“Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 cease not to give THANKS for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may GIVE unto you the spirit of WISDOM and REVELATION in the KNOWLEDGE of him: 18 the eyes of your UNDERSTANDING being ENLIGHTENED; that ye may KNOW what is the HOPE of his calling, and what the RICHES of the glory of his INHERITANCE in the saints . . .” Ephesians 1:15-23.

God is ever ready to HEAR your voice and to ANSWER your PRAYERS; but He will love us to PRAY in WISDOM – through the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of His WILL in Christ Jesus; this is to enable us receive ANSWERS and unhindered by any factors place by our self-making or by any external laid down man-made religious ordinance outside His REDEMPTION deed of rights and privileges for us.

“. . . 31 And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:1-33.

The kingdom of God is not wishy-washy or either this or that, in order to appeal to sentiments and self-seeking satisfaction in our circumstances. For our God is a God of ORDER and DECENCY (1 Corinthians 14:40; 1 Timothy 3:15; Titus 1:5); and He will only COMMEND what He COMMAND.

And the kingdom of God is not a case of asking God of His POWER and GRACE for a PURPOSE without you being able to FUNCTION and BECOME or of you asking for God’s enabling POWER and GRACE for a no PURPOSE of God to FUNCTION and BECOME. God’s given and driven enabling POWER and GRACE is for a PURPOSE. It’s in OBEDIENCE to that PURPOSE of God that one can FUNCTION and BECOME accordingly and respectively.

PURPOSE speaks of assignment, opportunity and causes to accomplish while POWER and GRACE speaks of the ENABLING to FUNCTION – meaning to accomplish and BECOME in the assigned PURPOSE that’s given and driven of God in Christ Jesus stead; and that means, you can’t accomplished PURPOSE with God, without His enabling gracious POWER and GRACE being available for and with you; also, you can’t crave in prayer for God’s gracious and enabling POWER and GRACE for a no PURPOSE or ASSIGNMENT or CAUSES for it to accomplish in order to BECOME as given and driven. Therefore SELAH – PAUSE and THINK.

“And he goeth up into a mountain, and CALLETH (RIGHT TO THE GRACE TO BECOME) unto him whom he would: and they came unto him. 14 And he ordained twelve, that they should BE with him, and that he might SEND (MISSION) them forth to PREACH (PURPOSE), 15 and to have POWER (ENABLING TO FUNCTION) to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils” Mark 3:13-15 Emphasis Mine.

And as a child of God, the intent of PURPOSE of God in your life, is applicable whether to your education, career, business, ministry, family, marriage, relationship, finance, leadership, politics, governance and such like more. It’s for the lack of PURPOSE that there are many ABUSE – ABNORMAL USE and FUNCTION – of things and matters that the outcomes ought to have been gracious and glorious. And for this lack of PURPOSE that many PRAYERS and FASTING receives and yields NO results as expected; this is reason when PRAYERS, that are not PURPOSEFULLY driven and channelled, in commensurate to the desire WILL of God, the enabling POWER and GRACE, are not MADE available. God doesn’t answer a PURPOSELESS REQUEST that’s demanding for His POWER and GRACE no matter the noise, emotion and sentiments that are attached with it for any endeavour to function and become.

You need to know for sure and certainly, why the essence of PURPOSE is very important – especially, counting on how much PRAYERS and FASTING we do, and sometimes if not most times, we do accompany it with enormous NIGHT VIGIL’S that we do or are doing to ascertain God’s POWER and GRACE in order to FUNCTION and BECOME in Him in Christ Jesus stead.

So, watch out HOW you PRAY; you need to PRAY in WISDOM as I am laying out in this writ. For, it’s not just enough when a Minister lays hand and pour ointment on you and declare breakthroughs means an end, you need to reconcile the matter of POWER and GRACE that you are asking and receiving of God in order to FUNCTION and BECOME with the PURPOSE for such. Otherwise, after few days or weeks or months, you will find yourself back to zero point again and in delusion while things have not worked out. Especially when your Church services Ministers have prayed and or you’ve observed the necessary religious and doctrinal ordinances to make it all good for your goodness and at no avail.

It’s only when PURPOSE are rightly with the context of God’s WILL, then the accompanying POWER (rights, capacity, opportunity) to FUNCTION and the enabling GRACE to BECOME, makes all things to work together for the good and goodness of any – this is simply, to ensure that one have the meaningful FULFILMENT with God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. That’s why we must take heed to God’s assignment in our life, and we don’t do a wishy-washy attitude with it if we intend having our altitude – onward and upward trajectory – of God’s APPROVAL as Christ Jesus received and not man’s APPLAUD that leads to self damnation – (Colossians 4:17; 2 Timothy 2:15; Acts 2:22; Romans 8:28).

Our perfect insight and foresight explanation in all I have discussed above is in our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ living example for us in His humanity. In His humanity, He was LED of the Holy Spirit, meaning not a self-made show-off agenda, to FAST and PRAY as in Luke 4:1-2 and Matthew 4:1-2. And afterwards, He returned with the POWER and GRACE of the Holy Spirit, and was accompany with the set PURPOSE of God – the enabling of the Holy Spirit to function and become, which He laid out in the synagogue Services immediately for all to bear Him record and witness as found in – Luke 4:1-2, 14, 16-22. He lived vividly through humanity in that CAUSE and PURPOSE with POWER and GRACE, and with meaningful fulfilment of God’s intent for humanity in Him. In same-like scenario, you can do life with God in all phases of your life, be it in – education, career, business, ministry, family, marriage, relationship, finance, leadership, politics, governance and such like.

Make your PRAYERS count and account for your good, meaningfully and fulfilling. And PRAYERS can only COUNT and ACCOUNT for one’s own good, when intentionally, it’s done by reconciling DEMAND for POWER and GRACE with PURPOSE in Christ Jesus stead.

So, PAUSE and THINK – SELAH!

YOU NEED TO ENQUIRE WISELY WHILE DOING LIFE

By Leave a Comment

YOU NEED TO ENQUIRE WISELY WHILE DOING LIFE: KNOWING IT’S SCRIPTURALLY UNWISE TO SAY – YESTERDAY IS BETTER THAN TODAY!

“Jesus Christ THE SAME yesterday, and today, and for ever” Hebrews 13:8.

It’s Scripturally WISE to say that BETTER is TODAY Than BEFORE – That’s Wisdom in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS; and it’s Scripturally UNWISE to say YESTERDAY is BETTER than TODAY and probably TOMORROW.

“SAY NOT thou, What is the CAUSE that the FORMER days were BETTER than these? for thou dost not ENQUIRE WISELY concerning this” Ecclesiastes 7:10

One great error of errors, it’s when you pray or have prayed for an expectation of God to come to fruition and you go contradicting your expectations – by allowing yourself to be RULED afterwards by what your SENSES [see, hear, smell, taste, feel/touch]  or by what the CIRCUMSTANCES around present before you; and that’s when you are not being RULED and EARNESTLY garrison by what you wants to see happen in the LIGHT of God’s WORD, in His grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. You need to know for sure and certainly, that between WHEN YOU PRAY to God and an ANSWER is come to fruition, your SENSE of focus in the WORD of GRACE and FAITH is very important. Let the gracious WORDS proceeds out of your mouth in FAITH in Christ Jesus stead. Amen

“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 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.

As long as you are focusing and affirming in statements of what you are SENSING and or by the CIRCUMSTANCES before you PRAYED, you can NEVER have what you wants from Father God in Christ. Simply for the truth that a double minded person can’t receive anything from God. 

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 5 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 1:2-8.

And when you stay ASSURED, STEADFAST and in CONFIDENCE by the WORD of GRACE and FAITH, focusing on what you WANTS to see of God, and not ruled and governed by what you are sensing, know for a certainty, that, there’s no force known and unknown that will be able to stop your request from not coming to fruition and in reality in your God as you have PRAYED. For the ministering spirit, the angelic hosts will perfectly deliver your God GIVEN goods into your hands when they are ASSURED of you acting by the word of God. For they only harkens to the voice of God’s WORD.

“For SURELY there is AN END; and thine EXPECTATION shall NOT be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:18.

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that DO His commandments, HEARKENING unto the VOICE OF HIS WORD” Psalms 103:20.

“And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire . . . 14 Are they not all MINISTERING spirits, sent forth to MINISTER for them who shall be HEIRS of salvation?” Hebrews 1:7, 14.

And on the contrary, what happens when you go thinking and believing that your FORMER days are BETTER than your TODAY and in some cases that your future will be in delusion, you keep at bay the working of God’s WORD on your behalf. Such acts of thinking makes one unwise in receiving anything from God.

When one begin to say that their today is  worst than their before you are not giving the heavens the opportunity to interfere in solving your earthly matters. Hence such attitude is considered an UNWISE reasoning in the kingdom operations to receive from God. For your attitude will unveil your altitudes in gratitude. You need to know full well that God is RICH to all who calls upon Him and that stays in steadfastness by FAITH on His WORD irrespective of the “IF” and “BUT” about them.

“For the scripture saith, Whosoever BELIEVETH on him shall NOT be ASHAMED. 12 For there is NO DIFFERENCE between the Jew and the Greek: for the SAME Lord over all is RICH unto all that CALL upon him. 13 For WHOSOEVER shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED” Romans 10:11-13.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a roaring lion, WALKETH ABOUT, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you” 1 Peter 5:8-10.

YOUR FOCUS AND YOUR WORDS ARE THE SEED THAT DEFINES YOUR FAITH IN GRACE FOR YOUR NOW, TODAY AND TOMORROW.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Surely OPPRESSION maketh a WISE man mad; and a GIFT (BRIBE) destroyeth (CORRUPTS) the (GOOD JUDGEMENT OF THE) HEART. 8 BETTER is the END of a thing than the BEGINNING thereof: and the patient in spirit is BETTER than the proud in spirit. 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for ANGER resteth in the BOSOM of fools. 10 SAY NOT thou, What is the cause that the FORMER days were BETTER than these? for thou dost not ENQUIRE WISELY concerning this” Ecclesiastes 7:7-10 Emphasis Mine.

“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.

“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.

“And this is the CONFIDENCE that we have in him, that, if we ASK ANY THING according to HIS WILL, he HEARETH us: 15 and if we KNOW that he HEAR us, WHATSOEVER WE ASK, we KNOW that we have the PETITIONS that we DESIRED of him” 1 John 5:14-15.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION (CONFESSION, DECLARATION, AFFIRMATION, ANNOUNCING) of our FAITH without wavering; (for he is FAITHFUL that PROMISED)” Hebrews 10:23.

“Seeing then that we have a GREAT high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, LET US HOLD FAST OUR PROFESSION (CONFESSION, DECLARATION, AFFIRMATION, ANNOUNCING). 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come BOLDLY unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” Hebrews 4:14-16.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS

By Leave a Comment

MORE THAN CONQUERORS: YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN REDEMPTION!

“Nay, in all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through HIM that LOVED us” Romans 8:37

IT’S TIME TO APPROPRIATE AND ENACT TO RECEIVE THE NEEDED ENABLING OF WHO YOU ARE AS MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN CHRIST JESUS.

One gracious and graceful thing God DID FOR US in REDEMPTION by Christ Jesus was and is, to ensure and authentic that we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; hence, Christ Jesus RECEIVE and GIVE GIFTS to us, as our RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in HIM.

And Jesus RECEIVED and GAVED to us these REDEMPTION rights and privileges to enable us to stay afloat as MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION.

There are Seven (7) Spiritual blessings and Five (5) Ministerial gifts, which are firstly in the heavenly places, and we are to appropriate and enact them on earth. Today, we can virtually see the five in manifestation and operation, but a struggle of the seven, in the Believers day to day living. But Why?

When you watch some ACTS and LISTEN to the use of WORD in the cause of most PRAYERS, TEACHING, and PREACHING, you wonder if indeed some people know that what God has given them, only requires ACCEPTANCE with THANKSGIVING and THANKS-LIVING to help one APPROPRIATE and ENACT it into REALITY.

In life, when you are given something, say a gift, you receive and accept it with thanks. You don’t go about ASKING again and again for what’s already GIVEN to you. Unfortunately, a continuous attitude of ASKING for the same, is what most Believers have made their acts in Prayers, even in their Fasting galore to measure spirituality; and instead of RECEIVING and GIVING THANKS they are ASKING and ASKING and ASKING . . . Instead of them to see the need to maintain a hearts of GRATITUDE as the ATTITUDE in which they will then enhance their ALTITUDE in life and godliness in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus.

Most times Believers are occupied with programs that’s more or else attached with religious obligations, traditions/customs of men, oblations and bye-laws dogmas, and such like; and these in most cases had kept us in a particular routine and settings with no substance that can do us any good in Christ Jesus stead. We FAST and PRAY for same thing and stay in same acts and process just because it seems good even when it’s obvious we are acting and praying AMISS and in ERRORS and UNSCRIPTURAL. That’s not the Gospel of God in our Redemption in Christ Jesus; and as such, we can’t APPROPRIATE and ENACT our rights and privileges WHOLLY, COMPLETELY and live same time in MORE THAN CONQUERORS in our REDEMPTION.

Therefore, it’s your time to express in order to enact and authenticate your FAITH with the heartfelt attitude of RECEIVING, THANKSGIVING and THANKS-LIVING, which the principle core to your rights and privileges in these seven (7) key REDEMPTION DONE DEED for us in Christ as stated:

** POWER (Authority) – In place of fear, oppression, intimidation etc (Luke 10:19; 2 Timothy 1:7 etc).

** RICHES (Prosperity) – In place of poverty, hunger, famine, lack etc (3 John 2; 2 Corinthians 8:9; Philippians 4:19; Ephesians 1:3).

** WISDOM (Mental) – Sound mind & mental IQ in place of ignorance, foolishness etc (James 1:5; Luke 2:40, 52 etc).

** STRENGTH (Physique) – In place of weakness, sickness, and all ‘ness etc (Philippians 4:13; Isaiah 40:28-30 etc).

** HONOUR (Dignity) – In place of dishonour, shame, disdain, inferiority etc (Colossians 1:13-14; Ephesians 1:7; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21).

** GLORY (Beauty & Adoration) – In place of reproach, embarrassment, ashes, shame etc (Isaiah 63:3; 1 Peter 2:5, 9 etc).

** BLESSING (Empowering & Bestowed Grace) – In place of curses, setbacks, stagnation etc (Ephesians 1:3; Priverbs 10:22; 2 Peter 1:2-4 etc).

I pray that THESE that Christ has RECEIVED and GIVEN us in His REDEMPTION DEED will be APPROPRIATED and ENACTED in our life accordingly.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
