CHOOSE TO ENVISION YOUR TURNAROUND: YOUR CHOICE IS WHAT’S DEFINING AND MAKING YOUR TODAY AND TOMORROW!
“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will GIVE unto thee the KEYS of the kingdom of heaven: and WHATSOEVER thou shalt BIND (ALLOWED, PERMITTED) on earth shall be BOUND in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt LOOSE (DISALLOWED, UNPERMITTED) on earth shall be loosed in heaven” Matthew 16:18-19/Emphasis Mine.
God MADE – THE RICH and MADE – THE POOR person, but it’s not God that MADE THEM SO – to be RICH or POOR. People BECOME what they ARE and not who they ARE by the CHOICES they MADE and are MAKING, or they ALLOWED to be MADE for them; or had been MADE long before they came to the SHORE of life and grace and they’re RESOLVED to follow suit in the context and concept that it RUNS in their family or in their DNA or it’s the ACCEPTABLE plot in life to BECOME irrespective.
Suppose for example you chose to be corrupt or to elect a corrupt official, leader or government to be in governance, board of trustees of a business, company, entrepreneur and in public or private places of doing life including the CHURCH per se. In that case, you will LIVE by the CONSEQUENCES of it. This is not who you ARE but what you ALLOWED and PERMITS, and this is of CHOICE and not the MAKINGS of God. God will only COMMEND what He COMMANDS; and will ALLOW (PERMIT) what you ALLOW (PERMIT) to be, in that he had created man, placed him on the EARTH with a WILL, which is the POWER of CHOICE to DEFINE the ATMOSPHERE the man wants to see and embrace. [Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 8:4-6; Matthew 18:16-19; Psalms 115:16].
Therefore choose wisely today and always, by ENVISIONING the effects of your CHOICES in LIFE and GRACE – GODLY LIVING, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead.
I do PRAY you SELAH – PAUSE and THINK in making your CHOICES that defines and makes you instead of blaming others or God with transfer aggression.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“Moreover THE WORD of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, WHAT SEEST (ENVISION) THOU? And I said, I SEE (ENVISION) a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well SEEN (ENVISION): for I will hasten MY WORD to PERFORM it” Jeremiah 1:11-12 (Emphasis Mine).
“The Lord MAKETH POOR, and MAKETH RICH: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. 8 He RAISETH up THE POOR out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and he hath set the world upon them. 9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail. 10 The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed” (1 Samuel 2:7-10).
“The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens. 5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high, 6 who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! 7 He RAISETH UP THE POOR OUT OF THE DUST, AND LIFTETH THE NEEDY OUT OF THE DUNGHILL; 8 that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people. 9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house,
and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord” Psalms 113:4-9.
“Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, ASK ME OF THINGS to come CONCERNING MY SONS, and CONCERNING THE WORK OF MY HANDS command ye me. 12 I HAVE MADE THE EARTH, AND CREATED MAN UPON IT: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded” Isaiah 45:11-12.
“The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: BUT THE EARTH HATH HE GIVEN TO THE CHILDREN OF MEN” Psalms 115:16.

“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and WHATSOEVER thou shalt BIND (ALLOWED, PERMITTED) on earth shall be BOUND in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt LOOSE (DISALLOWED, UNPERMITTED) on earth shall be loosed in heaven” Matthew 16:18-19 (Emphasis Mine).
