But if any is to enjoy a more than the usual,\nnormal and generalized blessings, they have to engage in a constant FELLOWSHIP\nto know and understand the path to it, that&#8217;s their RESPONSIBILITY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\">Much more in the same scenario, by virtue of God&#8217;s\nlove in Christ Jesus&#8217; we obtain RELATIONSHIP in our being born of God (comely\ncalled Born Again). But if we are to enjoy the fullness of God, we must\nendeavour to explore a FELLOWSHIP decorum with Him. Adam lost his fellowship at\nEden and it cost him at Eden as we know. Jesus in humanity maximise His\nfellowship and He made all the difference as we know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\">This is not about Church or special programs and busy\nprayer meetings and schedules, but how much of fellowship you are having with\nFather God personally, to enhance and boost your worth in Him and for Him is\nwhat &#8216;This Christmas&#8217; in &#8216;This December&#8217; and &#8216;This Day&#8217; should be about. The\nREASON for the SEASON.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\">It is the fellowship that strengthens relationship. Sin hinders the fellowship and in time destroys the relationship as in Eden. Hence during this season of Christmas, give room for the reason, that is, God&#8217;s love in Christ Jesus in relationship for fellowship to count and account for you. Make time to be &#8216;ALONE WITH FATHER GOD&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\">Every Blessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><em>&#8220;God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.&#8221;<\/em> <strong>(1 Corinthians 1:9).<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><em>&#8220;This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin&#8221;<\/em> <strong>(1 John 1:5-7).<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><em>&#8220;And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed&#8221;<\/em> <strong>(Mark 1:35).<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><em>&#8220;Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore&#8221; <\/em><strong>(Psalms 16:11).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><em>&#8220;Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new&#8221;<\/em><strong> (2 Corinthians 5:17).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><strong>Rev Chukie MORSI<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Christmas Reason: The Expression Season of God&#8217;s Love &#8211; In Relationship &amp; Fellowship!
