But if any is to enjoy a more\nthan the usual, normal and generalised BLESSEDNESS of GRACIOUSNESS and\nGRACEFULNESS, they have to engage in a constant FELLOWSHIP and COMMUNION to\nknow and understand the path to it, that&#8217;s their RESPONSIBILITY and\nACCOUNTABILITY.<\/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 love in Christ\nJesus&#8217; we obtain RELATIONSHIP in our being born of God (comely called Born\nAgain). But if we are to enjoy the fullness of God, we must endeavour to\nexplore a FELLOWSHIP decorum with Him. Adam lost his fellowship at Eden and it\ncost him at Eden as we know till date with the afterward generations of him.\nJesus in humanity maximise His FELLOWSHIP and He made all the difference as we\nknow.<\/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 prayer meetings\nand schedules, but how much of fellowship you are having with Father God\npersonally, to enhance and boost your worth in Him and for Him is what &#8216;This\nChristmas&#8217; in &#8216;This December&#8217; and &#8216;This Day&#8217; should be about. The REASON for\nthe 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\nfellowship and in time destroys the relationship as in Eden. Hence during this\nseason of Christmas, give room for the reason, that is, God&#8217;s love in Christ\nJesus in relationship for fellowship to count and account for you. Make time to\nbe &#8216;ALONE WITH FATHER GOD&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\">Every Blessing in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-light-green-cyan-color\"><strong>SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:<\/strong><\/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><\/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><\/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><\/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!
