THE <\/span><\/strong>CELEBRATION OF OUR JUSTIFICATION IN CHRIST JESUS<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/strong>Luke 15:3-32<\/span><\/strong> \u2018\u2019<\/span><\/strong><\/span> Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him. <\/span>And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. And he spake this parable unto them, saying, What<\/span> man<\/span> of<\/span> you,<\/span> having<\/span> a hundred<\/span> sheep,<\/span> if<\/span> he<\/span> lose<\/span> one<\/span> of<\/span> them,<\/span> doth<\/span> not<\/span> leave<\/span> the<\/span> ninety and nine<\/span> in<\/span> the<\/span> wilderness,<\/span> and<\/span> go<\/span> after<\/span> that which is lost,<\/span> until<\/span> he<\/span> find<\/span> it? <\/span>And<\/span> when<\/span> he<\/span> hath<\/span> found<\/span> it,<\/span><\/em> he<\/span> layeth<\/span> it<\/span><\/em> on<\/span> his\u00a0<\/span>shoulders,<\/span> rejoicing. <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/em><\/strong> when<\/span> he<\/span> cometh<\/span> home,<\/span> he<\/span> calleth together<\/span> his\u00a0<\/span>friends<\/span> and<\/span> neighbors,<\/span> saying<\/span> unto<\/span> them,<\/span> Rejoice with<\/span> me;<\/span> for<\/span> I<\/span> have<\/span> found<\/span> my<\/span> sheep<\/span> which was lost. <\/span>I<\/span><\/em><\/strong> say<\/span> unto<\/span> you,<\/span> that<\/span> likewise<\/span> joy<\/span> shall<\/span> be<\/span> in<\/span> heaven<\/span> over<\/span> one<\/span> sinner<\/span> that<\/span> repenteth,<\/span> more<\/span> than<\/span> over<\/span> ninety and nine<\/span> just persons,<\/span> which<\/span> need<\/span> no<\/span> repentance. <\/span><\/span><\/em>Either<\/span><\/strong> what<\/span> woman<\/span> having<\/span> ten<\/span> pieces of silver,<\/span> if<\/span> she<\/span> lose<\/span> one<\/span> piece,<\/span> doth<\/span> not<\/span> light<\/span> a<\/span> candle,<\/span> and<\/span> sweep<\/span> the<\/span> house,<\/span> and<\/span> seek<\/span> diligently<\/span> till<\/span> she<\/span> find<\/span> it<\/span><\/em>? <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/em><\/strong> when<\/span> she<\/span> hath<\/span> found<\/span> it,<\/span> she<\/span> calleth <\/span>her<\/span> friends and <\/span>her<\/span> neighbors together,<\/span> saying,<\/span> Rejoice with<\/span> me;<\/span> for<\/span> I<\/span> have<\/span> found<\/span> the<\/span> piece<\/span> which<\/span> I<\/span> had<\/span> lost. <\/span>Likewise,<\/span><\/em><\/strong> I<\/span> say<\/span> unto<\/span> you,<\/span> there<\/span> is<\/span> joy<\/span> in the presence<\/span> of<\/span> the<\/span> angels<\/span> of<\/span> God<\/span> over<\/span> one<\/span> sinner<\/span> that<\/span> repenteth. <\/span><\/span><\/em>And<\/span><\/strong> he said, A<\/span> certain<\/span> man<\/span> had<\/span> two<\/span> sons: <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/strong> the<\/span> younger<\/span> of<\/span> them<\/span> said<\/span> to<\/span> his<\/span><\/em> father,<\/span> Father,<\/span> give<\/span> me<\/span> the<\/span> portion<\/span> of<\/span> goods<\/span> that<\/span> falleth<\/span> to<\/span><\/em> me.<\/span><\/em> And<\/span><\/strong> he<\/span> divided<\/span> unto<\/span> them<\/span> his<\/span><\/em> living. <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/strong> not<\/span> many<\/span> days<\/span> after<\/span> the<\/span> younger<\/span> son<\/span> gathered all together,<\/span> and<\/span> took his journey<\/span> into<\/span> a<\/span> far<\/span> country,<\/span> and<\/span> there<\/span> wasted<\/span> his<\/span> substance<\/span> with<\/span> riotous<\/span> living. <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/strong> when<\/span> he<\/span> had<\/span> spent<\/span> all,<\/span> there<\/span> arose<\/span> a<\/span> mighty<\/span> famine<\/span> in<\/span> that<\/span> land;<\/span> and<\/span> he<\/span> began<\/span> to<\/span> be in want. <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/strong> he<\/span> went<\/span> and<\/span> joined<\/span> himself<\/span> to<\/span> a<\/span> citizen<\/span> of<\/span> that<\/span> country;<\/span> and<\/span> he<\/span> sent<\/span> him<\/span> into<\/span> his<\/span> fields<\/span> to<\/span> feed<\/span> swine. <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/strong> he<\/span> would fain<\/span> have<\/span> filled<\/span> his<\/span> belly<\/span> with<\/span> the<\/span> husks<\/span> that<\/span> the<\/span> swine<\/span> did<\/span> eat:<\/span> and<\/span> no man<\/span> gave<\/span> unto<\/span> him. <\/span><\/span>And<\/span><\/strong><\/strong>when<\/span> he<\/span> came<\/span> to<\/span> himself,<\/span> he<\/span> said,<\/span> How many<\/span> hired servants<\/span> of<\/span> my<\/span> father’s<\/span> have bread enough and to spare,<\/span> and<\/span> I<\/span> perish<\/span> with<\/span> hunger!

Its time to raise your head and shoulders, chest out and walk through life in freedom without fear or intimidation because of what Christ has done in you – <\/span>JUSTIFICATION.<\/span><\/strong> Whether you realise this truth or not \u2013 when you are born again, you are justified in Christ Jesus our Lord through faith that brought our salvation. To be justified in Christ Jesus is to be declared guiltless. As one who did not commit that which he is accused of committing!<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0<\/span>Why celebrate. . .<\/span><\/strong> Because there is joy in heaven for your justification in the Lord.<\/em><\/strong> <\/span>(Luke 15:7, 10, 22-32; Romans 5:1-2<\/span><\/strong>). It is time to reign in life from our <\/span>POSITION<\/span><\/strong> of <\/span>JUSTIFICATION<\/span><\/strong> in Christ Jesus and not from our <\/span>CONDITION<\/span><\/strong>. Hence you must live your life without fear, guilt, inferiority or intimidation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a02Timothy 1:7 <\/span><\/strong>\u2018\u2019<\/span><\/em><\/span>For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind <\/span><\/em>\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/strong>Luke1:74-75<\/span><\/strong> \u2018\u2019<\/span><\/span>That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered<\/strong> out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life\u2019\u2019.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Hebrews 2:14-15 <\/span><\/strong>\u2018\u2019<\/span><\/strong><\/span>Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver<\/strong> them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Your circumstances or condition will not only fail, intimidate and limit you with time \u2013 but also rob you of reigning, triumphing and overcoming in life. Our situations will cripple our peace in the long run, no matter how glorious they are today. Hence as achievers in Christ Jesus we must live in a new consciousness by the reasons of what Christ has done in us. The consciousness of the one that God has justified. Live in the fullness of the freedom that God offers in His Kingdom.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a02Corinthians 2:14 <\/span><\/strong>\u2018\u2019 . . .<\/span><\/em><\/span> thanks be unto God, which always<\/strong> causeth us to triumph<\/strong> in Christ, and maketh manifest the savor of his knowledge by us in every place\u2019<\/span><\/em>\u2019<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a01Corinthians 15:57<\/span><\/strong>\u2018\u2019 <\/span><\/em><\/span>. . . thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory<\/strong> through our Lord Jesus Christ<\/span><\/em>\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/em>Romans 8:37<\/span><\/strong> \u2018<\/span>\u2018. . . <\/span><\/em><\/span>we are more than conquerors<\/strong> through him that loved us\u2019<\/span><\/em>\u2019<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For this knowledge, wise men like King David, with all his achievements, continually maintained a joyous celebration, declaring the Lord as his shepherd and source of total wellbeing. That is, doing life and exhibiting a life style of <\/span>JUSTIFICATION<\/span><\/strong> from his <\/span>Position in<\/strong> the Lord<\/span>.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Psalm 23 <\/span><\/strong>\u2018\u2019<\/span><\/em><\/span>A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever<\/span><\/em>\u2019\u2019<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Let us celebrate, invite a friend or family this month to your home and have a joyous occasion.\u00a0 It is worth more than anything material. There is nothing that can compare with a lifestyle filled with joyous celebration through and through.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
