COLOUR YOUR WORLDS: DO YOUR LIFE A FAVOUR BY COLOURING YOUR ‘WORLDS’ THROUGH FAITH!

“The earth is the Lord’s, and the FULNESS thereof; the WORLD, and they that DWELL therein” Psalms 24:1.

You are the custodian of your happiness, joy, peace, dignity, honor and more in the world wherein God have placed you to have an oversight upon.

I don’t know what your ‘WORLDS’ seems to be, at this very moment. But one thing I do know is that you can create the atmosphere of the gracious ‘worlds’ you will love to live on daily.

“Through FAITH we understand that the WORLDS were FRAMED by the WORD of God, so that things which are SEEN were not MADE of THINGS which do APPEAR” Hebrews 11:3.

You faith in God through His WORD and by the working power of the blessed Holy Spirit can make all the difference.

Your intended worlds of excitement and rejuvenation, in respect to joy, peace, love, relationship, marriage, family, finance, career, ministry and more, are embedded on and in your FAITH.

You can frame, color your worlds today with the atmosphere you will really love to do life with. I pray you God’s grace and blessings as you remain steadfast in Faith to color your worlds.

“Crowns and thrones may perish

Kingdoms rise and wane

But the Church of Jesus constant will remain:

Gates of hell can never

‘Gainst that Church prevail;

We have Christ’s own promise –

And that cannot fail” – S. Baring-Gould.

Yea, Individuals, Kingdoms, Nations, Empires, Politicians, Political and Military dictators, Kings and Satanic Evil Cohorts, have risen and fallen; lost their greatness and collapsed, reigned and died; yet the Church of Jesus Christ, the greatest UNPARALLELED force known on earth, beneath the earth and in the heavens, keeps marching on triumphantly in the face of absolute oppositions and challenges; and in the midst of all the hates and attacks of the ENEMY and COHORTS.

“Thy KINGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM, and thy DOMINION endureth throughout ALL GENERATIONS” Psalms 145:13.

Therefore as God’s Battle Axe and Weapons of War, God’s Church in Christ Jesus, it’s time to ARISE and BUILD with that selfless hearts of FAITH, HOPE and LOVE again, in order to set things alright in the human DECADENCE and PERVERSIONS and PESTILENCE that we all see EVERY DAY on our denominationized Churches, Homes, Streets, Roads, Governments, Communities and in every places of living and doing life.

It’s time to readily VOLUNTEER and be WILLING as God’s UNPARALLELED STRENGTH that’s designed and structured as a default to come through ZION, which is the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. For there, we shall RULE and REIGN over the ENEMY and COHORTS, in all their mode of operandi. For the refreshing, anointing and rejuvenating energy of the youth synergy for innovation, creativity, exploring and initiative, is within our being, to do EXPLOIT in the Kingdom of our God in Christ Jesus stead.

THIS IS OUR MOMENT TO READILY VOLUNTEER AND BE WILLING TO GIVE HOPE AND A FUTURE TO OUR GENERATION WITHOUT COMPRISES OF OUR FAITH IN OUR GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. ARE YOU READILY READY TO VOLUNTEER? WILL YOU WATCH THE ENEMY AND COHORTS HAVE THEIR WAY WHILE YOU WATCH? I HAVE VOLUNTEERED AND SAID YES LORD TO YOUR WILL!

We must know full well as the living and alive Church, that we live in the days where only by wisdom we can prevail, do valiantly and exploit in the name of the Lord God. For we as the Church have been given so much tremendous authority and power to bring about the atmosphere we earnestly desired to color our worlds with God’s goodness, graciousness and gracefulness until Christ Jesus returns for the fullness of our God and well-being.

YOU ARE GOD’S BATTLE AXE – FEAR NOT

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE GOD’S BATTLE AXE – FEAR NOT: YOUR FREEDOM AND OVERCOMING IN CHRIST JESUS IS A DONE DEED!

Fear is the enemy and cohorts assigned policing factor to make any captive, long before it MAKES any a prey and victim. Hence, we mustn’t welcome or entertain any act of fear or fear phobia’s around us in words or deeds. We are born of God in Christ Jesus to be emboldened and not to live, work and walk along doing life and living godly in the spirit of fear. Know for certain, that where fear exist, God is not there and faith doesn’t exist.

Fear breeds torments, shame, brokenness and intimidation. It robs one of vision, guidance, confidence, assurance, health and such like the more.

Fear can cripple one’s joy, happiness and success when not checked by love and faith in the hope of our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. For our genuine freedom from fear is our FAITH on the done work of Christ for us in REDEMPTION.

“Who hath DELIVERED us from the POWER OF DARKNESS, and hath TRANSLATED us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins” Colossians 1:13-14.

There are over 365 fear not in the Scriptures to keep you through the 365/366 days in a normal and leap year. But you have to step out in FAITH in the done work of God in Christ Jesus, to OVERCOME fear and the fear phobias.

You need to be emboldened in Christ Jesus stead today, by dusting off the spirit of cowardice and intimidation; and then raise your head up, shoulders high and then put on the high heels of FAITH to take on the enemy and cohorts policing factor called FEAR with your FAITH, when it shows up in your PATH of doing life and living godly. For you are God’s Battle Axe and Weapons of War.

May you come to know and ensure, that God by Christ Jesus, have DELIVERED you from the grip and power of the ENEMY and COHORTS; and TRANSLATED and POSITIONED you in His emboldened Kingdom of PEACE, RIGHTEOUSNESS and JOY in the Holy Ghost. Amen.

GOD’S PROMISE – GOOD SUCCESS AND FULFILMENT

By Leave a Comment

GOD’S PROMISE – GOOD SUCCESS AND FULFILMENT: POSSIBLE THROUGH FAITH AND DILIGENT MEDITATION IN THE WORD!

It is one thing to have SUCCESS or be SUCCESSFUL by whatever factor of measure, but it’s another thing to be FULFILLED in that SUCCESS. And SUCCESS without FULFILMENT is a nightmare. And in this context, it’s about the inner peace and tranquility of the human spirit that nothing else can satisfy but God.

“He has made everything BEAUTIFUL and APPROPRIATE in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human HEART [a mysterious LONGING which NOTHING under the sun can SATISFY, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 Amplified.

There is SUCCESS and there is GOOD SUCCESS. It’s okay to have success or be successful; but to have God’s kind, which is of GOOD SUCCESS, there is the path to follow. The good Success which God offers comes through DILIGENCE in the MEDITATION of the WORD that gives insights and foresights of God in SUCCESS context.

God’s act of good SUCCESS is to bring you to a place of joy, happiness and FULFILMENT within and without. What is SUCCESS without the inner being of joy, happiness and FULFILMENT in Christ Jesus. It is this difference that makes some claims to be successful are false, because their acclaimed SUCCESS ends up with no joy, happiness and FULFILMENT but an INNER state that is suicidal, insecurity and unimaginable vices as a means to satisfy that quest, void and vacuum that only God offers through the MEDITATION in His WORD.

You must also know that in life, SUCCESS is relative. And to have it good, it’s about the illumination and enlightening of God’s WORD through FAITH that overshadows one’s being in that SUCCESS. For INNER peace and tranquility is of God in the human spirit. It is that INNER spirit empowering that gives the overwhelming OUTER joy, happiness and FULFILMENT; otherwise  it ends up with a broken spirit despite the SUCCESS, which is destructive. Proverbs 18:14; Proverbs 17:22.

Know for certain that when a Believer is in desperation to be successful outside the SCRIPTURAL terms of reference, it will not be of a clean act or an end. The Scriptures thus indicate that those who are in HASTE to get to SUCCESS outside God underscore the Scriptural context and will not be innocent but will have their hands stain with dirt as it’s written:

“A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: but he that maketh HASTE to be rich SHALL NOT BE INNOCENT. 21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a PIECE of bread that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be rich hath an EVIL eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:20-22.

To experience the good SUCCESS that God offers without stress, sweat, complain, murmuring and such like, you need to plug into the fountain of life; and walk through His path that gives springs of liveliness and livelihood; and are found in DILIGENCE walk in SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION on God’s factor for good SUCCESS.

This is the only way to keep your sixth sense – which is of FAITH, activated over your five senses – Smell, Touch/Feel, See, Hear, and Taste, which are limited to your dealings in life and godly living.

So THINK and start acting NOW!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but FAITH WORKING through LOVE . .  . If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5: 6, 25.

“For we WALK by FAITH, not by SIGHT (five senses)” 2 Corinthians 5:7.

“And HOPE maketh not ASHAMED; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad in OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” Romans 5:5.

“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, EVEN OUR FAITH. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. 10 For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH confession is MADE unto SALVATION” Romans 10:8-10.

“We having the same spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore SPEAK” 2 Corinthians 4:13.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by his FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38).

“Now FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through FAITH we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But without FAITH it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.

“. . . 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall SAY unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not DOUBT in his HEART, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he SAITH. 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye DESIRE, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them” Mark 11:12-14, 20-24.

THE GIVING OF THANKS AND PRAYERS AND REMEMBERANCE: KNOWING THAT YOUR WORK, LABOUR AND PATIENCE ARE NOT IN VAIN!

There is sufficient cause to remain steadfast, unmoveable and abounding in God’s Kingdom cause in your life in the Lord, as you keep on keeping, on the gracious and graceful kingdom rewarding purpose for you as written:

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye STEDFAST, UNMOVEABLE, always ABOUNDING in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your LABOUR is not in VAIN in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 15:58.

There is the cause to always give THANKS, PRAYERS and REMEMBERANCE for the essence of three gracious and graceful acts in your life in the LORD and His Kingdom advancement. These are:

* The (Your) Work of Faith

* The (Your) Labor of Love

* The (Your) Patience of Hope

You need to give thanks to God always for you and others about you, as you take each passing day step, to advance the CAUSE of God’s Kingdom Business; and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. It’s a gracious and graceful synergy to keep one focus as God’s ambassador and representative on this side of the heavenly in the midst of the challenging and difficult times.

Except otherwise, you then need to ponder about them and measure yourself in the light of the scripture if you are indeed standing sure on the gracious and graceful Kingdom acts of the Lord God. And wherein otherwise, awake from your slumbering and backsliding state and get back on your feet again while its day when you need to work and walk in the grace that WORTH REMEMBERANCE. And knowing that every grace and speed will be yours again in the Lord.

SOME SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, and LABOUR OF LOVE, and PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-4 (Emphasis Mine).

“And now abideth FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, these three; but the greatest of these is Love” 1 Corinthians 13:13 (Emphasis Mine).

“For God is not UNJUST (UNRIGHTEOUS, UNFAITHFUL) so as to forget your WORK and the LOVE which you have SHOWN for His name in ministering to [the needs of] the saints (God’s people), as you do. 11 And we desire for each one of you to show the same DILIGENCE [all the way through] so as to realize and enjoy the full ASSURANCE of hope until the end, 12 so that you will not be [spiritually] SLUGGISH (SLOTHFUL), but [will instead be] IMITATORS (FOLLOWERS) of those who through FAITH [lean on God with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in His power] and by PATIENT endurance [even when suffering] are [now] INHERITING the promises” Hebrews 6:10-12 Amplified (Emphasis Mine).

“. . . 12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of UNBELIEF, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be HARDENED through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made PARTAKERS of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence STEDFAST unto the end; 15 while it is said, Today if ye will hear his voice, HARDEN not your hearts, as in the provocation” Hebrews 3:7-15.

FAITHFUL SAYING: CHARACTER AND INTEGRITY!

“And then you need to keep a sharp eye out for COMPETENT men—men who FEAR God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE—and APPOINT them as LEADERS over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten” Exodus 18:21.

Herein are common and scriptural sayings that are worth pondering – meditating and thinking – through, in cause of doing life in time and in matters of CHARACTER and INTEGRITY.

** “People of genius are admired.

People of wealth are envied.

People of power are feared.

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED”

                          – Arthur Friedman

** Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there.

** And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us in the WORD.

** “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost”

                                – Billy Graham

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY—meditate on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us” 2 Timothy 2:10-12.

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE yourself toward godliness. 8 For BODILY exercise profits a little, but GODLINESS is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe” 1 Timothy 4:7-10.

“That having been JUSTIFIED by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to MAINTAIN good works. These things are GOOD and PROFITABLE to men” Titus 3:7-8.

“But the FRUIT (CHARACTER) of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” Galatians 5:22-25.
