SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For God did not give us a SPIRIT OF TIMIDITY OR COWARDICE OR FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER AND OF LOVE AND OF SOUND JUDGMENT AND PERSONAL DISCIPLINE [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified).

“In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment [with ASSURANCE and BOLDNESS to face Him]; BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love [DREAD does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love DRIVES OUT FEAR, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]” 1 John 4:17-18 (Amplified).

PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS

February 4, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS: IT’S ABOUT FAITHFULNESS IN SOMEONE ELSE ENTRUSTED BUSINESS!

“And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither. 2 And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a PROSPEROUS man; and he was in the house of his MASTER the Egyptian. 3 And his MASTER saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he DID to PROSPER IN HIS HAND” Genesis 39:1-3.

“He that is FAITHFUL in that which is LEAST is FAITHFUL also in MUCH: and he that is UNJUST in the LEAST is UNJUST also in MUCH. 11 If therefore ye HAVE NOT BEEN FAITHFUL in the UNRIGHTEOUS mammon, who will COMMIT to your TRUST the true riches? 12 And if ye have not been FAITHFUL in that which is ANOTHER MAN’S, who shall GIVE you that which is YOUR OWN?” Luke 16:10-12.

One great PRINCIPLED hallmark requirements for any Christian who wants to PROSPER and have GOOD SUCCESS by and with God in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead, is to be found FAITHFUL in someone else ENTRUSTED business and or works in goods and or services. It’s called the principle of STEWARDSHIP otherwise MANAGEMENT.

It’s a requirement that in STEWARDSHIP, a steward be found FAITHFUL, responsible and accountable in the PRINCIPLE of an ENTRUSTED position of someone else’s business – be it in goods and or services, irrespective of whether the ENTRUSTED business is owned by a Christian or a non-Christian.

“Let a man so ACCOUNT of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and STEWARDS of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover it is REQUIRED IN STEWARDS, that a man be found FAITHFUL” 1 Corinthians 4:1-2.

The enemy and cohorts lies of saying that the riches of the Gentiles belongs to you in order to live UNFAITHFUL, IRRESPONSIBLE and UNACCOUNTABLE in the PRINCIPLE of someone else’s ENTRUSTED business, doesn’t hold waters in the kingdom cause of our God.

And you can’t make EXCUSES of it because you are bringing the PROCEEDS to the house of God with such level of inappropriate disobedient to the word of God as King Saul did in Biblical days (1 Samuel 15:22-23) and or Ananias and Sapphira in the Epistles (Acts 5:1-11).

Faithfulness to the cause of stewardship in another’s ENTRUSTED business in the outlay PRINCIPLE is as found in the following but not limited:

* God is FAITHFUL in Himself – 1 Corinthians 1:9.

* Jesus in humanity was FAITHFUL in STEWARDSHIP – Hebrews 3:1-2.

* Moses was found FAITHFUL in STEWARDSHIP – Hebrews 3:3-5.

* Abraham was found FAITHFUL in STEWARDSHIP – Galatians 3:8-9.

* Daniel was found FAITHFUL in STEWARDSHIP – Daniel 6:4.

* Timotheus was found FAITHFUL in STEWARDSHIP – 1 Corinthians 4:16-17.

* Apostle Paul was found FAITHFUL in STEWARDSHIP – 1 Timothy 1:12-13.

*. . . and many such like FAITHFULNESS in STEWARDSHIP in the Scriptures.

CAN YOU BE CONSIDERED FAITHFUL OR BE FOUND FAITHFUL IN STEWARDSHIP IN ANOTHER’S ENTRUSTED BUSINESS?

Many people WANT God to prosper and keep PROSPERING THE WORKS OF THEIR HANDS while in their UNFAITHFULNESS in the principle of someone else ENTRUSTED business affairs – in goods and services. You found this onward and upward trajectory behavior in many places of EMPLOYMENT – where people behavior helps to run the business down; and when you give them OPPORTUNITY to serve – they ruin it; ask them to TAKE CHARGE of things – they steal from it; ask them to LOOK AFTER a business – they become authoritarian to their subordinates; give them access to GOVERN OR LEAD in government – they loot the treasury and undermine governance; and same UNFAITHFUL behavior in many other such like; and yet these unfaithfulness in STEWARDSHIP will wants God to prosper them, which otherwise will never happen because God will always uphold His WORD, in every way of doing life and living godly, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

In God, it’s about FAITHFULNESS and OBEDIENCE to the PRINCIPLE of any given opportune task over someone else ENTRUSTED business affairs be it in any form of good and services, as applicable to – Ministry, Family, Enterprises, Governance, Leadership, Management and such like more – and this is what actually defines our opportunity to own ours. How we deal with the ENTRUSTED services and goods in terms of materials, finance, equipment, people (staff), time, and such like that’s allocated to our care defines if we will definitely have our own materialized before us by the FAITHFUL God that have called us to the COMMUNION of STEWARDSHIP. 1 Corinthians 1:9; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2.

It’s my PRAYERS that you will be found FAITHFUL as STEWARD alias MANAGER’S in someone else’s ENTRUSTED business affairs in our path of doing life and living godly, such that ours will come to REALITY before us, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“This Book of the Law shall not depart from YOUR mouth, but YOU shall meditate in it day and night, that YOU may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then YOU will make YOUR way PROSPEROUS, and then YOU will have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8 NKJV.

“Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that FAVOUR MY RIGHTEOUS CAUSE: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath PLEASURE IN THE PROSPERITY of his servant” Psalms 35:27.

“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in GOOD health [physically], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [spiritually]” 3 John 2 Amplified.

“SERVANTS (EMPLOYEE), be OBEDIENT to them that are your MASTERS (EMPLOYERS) according to the FLESH (HUMANITY), with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; 6 not with EYESERVICE, as MENPLEASERS; but as the SERVANTS of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; 7 WITH GOOD WILL DOING SERVICE, as to the Lord, and not to men: 8 knowing that whatsoever good thing any man DOETH, the same shall he RECEIVE of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. 9 And, ye MASTERS (EMPLOYER’S), do the same things unto them, FORBEARING THREATENING: knowing that your MASTER also is in heaven; neither is there RESPECT of persons with him” Ephesians 6:5-9 (Emphasis Mine).

“SERVANTS (EMPLOYEE), obey in all things your MASTERS (EMPLOYER’S) according to the FLESH; not with EYESERVICE, as MENPLEASERS; but in SINGLENESS of heart, fearing God: 23 and whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 24 knowing that of the Lord ye shall RECEIVE the reward of the inheritance: for ye SERVE the Lord Christ. 25 But he that DOETH wrong shall RECEIVE for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no RESPECT of persons” Colossians 3:22-25.

“MASTERS (EMPLOYER’S), give unto your SERVANTS (EMPLOYEE) that which is JUST and EQUAL; knowing that ye also have a MASTER in heaven” Colossians 4:1.

“Let a man so ACCOUNT of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and STEWARDS of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover it is REQUIRED IN STEWARDS, that a man be found FAITHFUL” 1 Corinthians 4:1-2.

GOD’S BATTLE AXE: DEALING WITH THE BATTLE OF THE MIND!

February 3, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

GOD’S BATTLE AXE: DEALING WITH THE BATTLE OF THE MIND!

“And be RENEWED in the spirit of your MIND” Ephesians 4:23.

Knowingly or unknowingly, there’s a battle and warfare that is ongoing in our minds and in thoughts twenty-four-seven. Unfortunately, the Church has sat so much on SPIRITUAL WARFARE for so long that we have lost a major BATTLE which I called – MENTAL WARFARE – The battle of the mind.

For its ones PICTURE that determines ones FUTURE. It is what you picture in the spirit of your MIND that determines and defines what awaits you in the future. And the vitality for SOUND MIND can NEVER be over-emphasized at all phases of doing life and living godly in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

“For as he THINKS in his heart, so is he [in BEHAVIOR—one who manipulates]. He says to you, “Eat and drink,” Yet his heart is not with you [but it is begrudging the cost]” Proverbs 23:7.

And there are reasons for the mind battle field when you look at the Scriptural context in Mark 5:1-20. This is simply for these reasons though not limited:

* Your mind is certainly a gateway to your life, for every event of your life is determined and defined in the mind.

* Every captive is first arrested in the mind. And your Liberty (freedom) is established or lost in the MIND.

* Your mind is the controller of your destiny. Until you are able to keep your mind under control, your life is out of control.

* As terrible as sin is, Jesus established that sin begins with a seed of thought (Matthew 5:27-30). All the devil does is to sell the thought. When you buy the thought, you become a victim of the act.

* Nobody succeeds by chance; success begins with a thought. Nobody prospers just by effort. Every act of prosperity, advancement in life has its source in the hearted-mind.

* Until you begin to think differently things will not be different. Every GRACIOUS imagination establishes you, but every human philosophy that one falls for makes a captive of you. YOU ARE A PRODUCT OF YOUR THOUGHT LIFE. For as you THINK, so you BECOME.

* Every EVIL that comes upon Job begins with his imagination of it – Job 3:25. Every EVIL IMAGINATION is an express ACCESS for EVIL.

* Right living begins with right thinking. Great living begins with great thinking and great success begins with great success thought. Hence you don’t reply THOUGHTS with THOUGHTS but with WORDS.

FINALLY – Foreknowing the above and such like, one can say that – until your sense of reasoning and mentality is corrected, your destiny is not secured. For Satan has no access to your spirit, knowing it is in relationship and fellowship with the Father God; but he has access to your mind. It is the gateway to your life. Therefore give no place to the devil or else he will give you a direction.

You are GOD’S BATTLE AXE AND WEAPON OF WAR, do something by RENEWING the spirit of your mind by the WORD to remain SOUND-MINDED. That is the HOW to BATTLE in your MIND.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And be not CONFORMED to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” Romans 12:2.

“For God hath not given us the spirit of FEAR; but of power, and of love, and of a SOUND MIND” 2 Timothy 1:7.

“For though we WALK in the flesh [as mortal men], we are not carrying on our [spiritual] warfare according to the flesh and using the WEAPONS of man. 4 The WEAPONS of our WARFARE are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood]. Our WEAPONS are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. 5 We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking EVERY THOUGHT and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ, 6 being ready to punish every act of disobedience, when your own obedience [as a church] is complete” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (Amplified).

MONTH FEBRUARY – PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS

February 2, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

MONTH FEBRUARY – PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS: GIVE GOD SOMETHING TO WORK WITH – FOR YOUR PROSPERITY IN HIM!

You are BLESSED of God in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, UNCONDITIONALLY – Ephesians 1:3-6; 2 Peter 1:3-6; 3 John 1:2. And to be BLESSED of God is to be empowered to PROSPER, SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, BECOME and SUCH-LIKE, in life and grace. However, to enact and authenticate the BLESSEDNESS of God in Christ Jesus as regards prospering you and I, there’s the need to have, know and understand the works of your hands. For God will only prosper the Works of your hands to prosper you – meaning – NO WORK OF YOUR HANDS, NO PROSPERITY in Christ Jesus stead. God does no magic for He’s not a magician neither does God do confusion because He’s not confused and not the author of confusion as we see in many places by those seeking a microwave instant answers. Suffix to know that God’s BLESSEDNESS and MIRACLES as some may crave, are the consequences of His WORD – there’s no BUT or IF in it.

I also wants you to know that our uncreated creator and almighty God does HEARS and ANSWERS to PRAYERS – Psalms 65:2; Proverbs 15:29. So, the place of prayers and fasting as an act of fellowship to enhance our relationship with God is imperative, incomprehensible, indescribable and unspeakable in every known and unknown respect with God, by the Holy Spirit, in the BLESSEDNESS of His word, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Matthew 6:5-8, 16-18.

However, as important as the act of PRAYERS and FASTING are – God can only PROSPER you by PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS and not by a mere act of praying and fasting to overshadow our place of being principled in taking responsibility and accountability through diligence and prudence by wisdom, to bring about the reality of our BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. It thus means that:

*GOD DOES NOT PROSPER NOTHING – NEITHER DOES HE PROSPER EMPTINESS OR IDLENESS.

* THERE’S NO PLACE FOR A VACUUM WITH GOD TO PROSPER YOU.

There’s the need for inward look before an outward look as Isaiah 6:1-9 teaches us, to enable an individual to have a profound insights and foresight trajectory to their place in life and grace with God in Christ Jesus stead. For an inward discovery will definitely give an outward recovery no matter how much you think that you have elapsed with time. God is always on time with us and never late in His purpose to work out for our good and goodness. Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10; Philippians 1:6.

That we are born of God, blessed of God, chosen of God, predestinated of God and such like in our REDEMPTION, doesn’t give the rights and privileges of laziness, slothfulness and idleness in the kingdom cause of our God or living in a WISHY-WASHY lifestyle. Ephesians 1:3-6; 2 Peter 1:2-4; 3 John 1:2.

Just know for the record that God doesn’t prosper nothing and God doesn’t prosper laziness and God doesn’t prosper a no work in your hands otherwise any such teaching, prophecy, perception, intuition and messages it’s a counterfeit, fake, adulterated and contradictory to the, authority, fullness and authenticity to the graciousness and gracefulness of the WORD of God in all ramifications of doing life and living godly under God, in Christ Jesus stead, by the Holy Spirit. But God will lift any person from poverty and obscurity to prosperity and good success in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Joshua 1:8; 1 Samuel 2:7-9.

Jesus WORK the WORKS of Father God that sent Him and for three and half years after thirty years of preparation in knowing and understanding the works on and of His hands, He PROSPERED by God to fulfill PURPOSE and the CAUSE for which He came to the world, born of a woman as you and I. 1 John 3:8; John 18:37.

Therefore, give God something to work with – TILL YOUR LAND AND WATCH GOD PROSPER YOU ACCORDINGLY. For He PROSPER you by PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that FAVOUR my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be MAGNIFIED, which hath PLEASURE IN THE PROSPERITY of his servant” Psalms 35:27 (Galatians 5:13).

“This Book of the Law shall not depart from YOUR mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that YOU may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then YOU WILL MAKE YOUR WAY PROSPEROUS, and then YOU WILL have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8 NKJV. (Psalms 19:14; Romans 10:8-10; Luke 4:22).

AFD FEBRUARY 2023 EDITION

WELCOME TO THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2023 : MONTH OF ENSURING THAT YOU PROSPER BY – “PROSPERING THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS”
“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [spiritually]” 3 John 1:2 Amplified.

A JOB is what you are employed and tutored to do and you can be sacked, retrenched, dismissed and retired even against your will but A WORK is what you are in-built to do and no man can sack, dismiss, retrench, retire you but you and you alone. It is the discovery of the work and your work in you, that makes the difference to make you do things differently; and that enables you to be creative, innovative and initiative by exploring better ways of prospering the work to prosper the you in life and grace without stress and anxiety, murmuring and complaining. By knowing and understanding what your work is all about, then you know your WORTH and how you tend toward an onward and upward trajectory to THRIVE instead of SURVIVE, because it’s within you. THINK ABOUT IT!

When you know you work, the wisdom to prosper the work to prosper you, comes naturally. And the act of faithfulness, diligence, prudence, responsibility and accountability that’s built on principle become natural to you. And knowing and understanding your work and your worth in your worth, will change your perspective of not not blaming others wherever there is setback in the work. We live in a world where people take delight to blame others to in order to create their own narratives and uprising on someone else downfall. Knowing and understanding your work helps you not to be deter by the forces about, no matter the numbers. GIVING UP IS NOT AN OPTION NEITHER DANCING TO THE COMMONLY ACCEPTABLE AN OPTION WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR WORK.

So, if you wants to prosper, take time to do diligence in self discovery of your work and then ensure all it takes to prosper the work that you may prosper along. Your prosperity is in your hand and not in another. The scripture says in Joshua 1:8, it is you that will make your way PROSPEROUS with GOOD SUCCESS, indicating that they are BAD SUCCESS as it’s written:

When you consider your work a business under God as Jesus Christ consider His work, a business under God, you will prosper and increase with wisdom, physique and in favour with God and man.

“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s BUSINESS? . . . 52 And Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM and STATURE, and in FAVOUR with God and man” Luke 2:49, 52.

“I must WORK THE WORKS of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can WORK” John 9:4.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY, INTEGRITY); he shall not STAND before MEAN (UNPRODUCTIVE, OBSCURED) men” Proverbs 22:29.

And to do business with your work, you have to as a matter of principle to be DILIGENT. And DILIGENCE is not just about hardworking, but about being smart, steadily steady and consistently consistent in FAITH, with a set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in focus, THRIVING to obtain an effectual and productive result. The otherwise is to be slacked of the work to attract failings and failures instead of prosperity and good success as written:

When you DILIGENTLY TILL YOUR LAND – your WORK through innovating exploring creating and initiating, there will be PLENTY of bread to sort you out in life and make you a vessel of blessings to others. To TILL is to CULTIVATE – which means, to PLOW, SOW or PLANT and RAISE or PRODUCE. And to ensure that you till the work – you cultivate by plowing on the work and planting a SEED or CROP or investing say TIME, FINANCE, EFFORT (mental and or physical exertion) and other necessary material to NURTURE that endeavour untill there’s a product – effect or result.

“He that TILLETH HIS LAND shall be satisfied with bread: but he that FOLLOWETH VAIN persons is void of understanding” Proverbs 12:11.

When you are consistently consistent in a steady spirit and faith in that which you set your hearts to do, you will never be disappointed. That’s the spirit of DILIGENCE. It’s REWARDING and EMPOWERING.

“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 11:6.

It’s too early to PLAY the LAZY, SLOTHFUL and SLUGGARD card as a fool. It’s time to INITIATE, CREATE, INNOVATE and EXPLORE all the necessary possibilities in the work set plan, purpose and pursuit. And DILIGENCE makes it all POSSIBLE.

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK.

WELCOME TO MONTH FEBRUARY – DOING LIFE DIFFERENTLY

February 1, 2023 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WELCOME TO MONTH FEBRUARY – DOING LIFE DIFFERENTLY: AS CHRIST’S AMBASSADOR!

Do something different this month. Break through that fear of boredom and set patterns and methods. Ensure your life on principles, for our God, is not of methods but of principles. Therefore do something differently from the set usual that have not made anything refreshing, rejuvenating and blossoming in you, by doing it in this wise, but not limited:

* Close the kitchen and take time out to have a special meal with family and possibly friends outside home or the usual. Take your spouse out for a different kind of date from the usual. Drive through a different route to and from Church, work or places of interest. Make new and different kind of friends and interest along. Mark 6:39-32; 1 John 3:16-17; James 2:14-18.

* Break through the usual pattern of settings in order to refresh and rejuvenate your laugh. As a Pastor close the church for a week and take members for a picnic or places of interest and have leisure as Jesus did, you won’t lose them. Go for a sporting, boat ride or ship cruise were possible. Go worship in a different Church outside your denomination or setting, or go to another branch of your denomination setting and live free to learn of others beyond your usual. In heaven we crave after, there’s no DENOMINATION but BRETHREN, therefore learn now to fellowship with others beyond your settings. 1 Corinthians 1:9; Mark 6:30-32; Galatians 3:6-9, 26-29; James 1:26-27; Acts 15:35-36.

* Feed your enemy, give them a drink, for when a man’s way please the Lord, He makes his enemy to be at peace with him. Do you believe it, and can you do it? Proverbs 25:21-22; Romans 12:19-21; Proverbs 16:7; Matthew 5:38-48; 1 John 3:14-15.

* Take someone new to the groceries for shopping and pay the bills. Where possible give someone a home or shelter, mobility and suchlike. Galatians 6:9-10.

*Live your life outside the box this month. Make peace, relate with those that hurts you though they are the wrong and give God something to work with. Matthew 5:38-48; Romans 12:18-19.

* Resolve not to murmur, complain, nag and blame but take responsibility for once at least this month. It’s time to speak well and whole to all about you again and again. 1 Corinthians 10:10; Proverbs 6:2; Proverbs 18:20-21; Luke 4:22: Hebrews 10:23.

*Dare to do something different this month by taking a good time of yours for an hour or a day or couples to give someone a helping hand of your skill or trade or mentoring without asking for a pay or reward, more especially to the have not or unskilled or limited by some factors. 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12; Galatians 5:13; Ephesians 6:5-9; Luke 2:46, 52.

* You are of the new testament, live your life beyond borders, hence visit your Unchurch friends and share love, hope and faith with them. For once, be of earthly good in your heavenly mindedness. Colossians 4:5-6; 1 Thessalonians 4:12; 1 Thessalonians 3:12-13; Galatians 5:6; Galatians 3:6-9, 26-29.

BREAK THROUGH YOUR FEARS – ESPECIALLY YOURSELF THIS MONTH: BE A DIFFERENT AMBASSADOR FROM THE USUAL.

Do all things in grace, surely you will be bless.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Finally, brethren, WHATSOEVER things are true, WHATSOEVER things are honest, WHATSOEVER things are just, whatsoever things are pure, WHATSOEVER things are lovely, WHATSOEVER things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him ALL THINGS, both what they HAD DONE, and what they HAD TAUGHT. 31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves APART into a DESERT PLACE, and REST A WHILE: for there were MANY COMING AND GOING, AND THEY HAD NO LEISURE SO MUCH AS TO EAT. 32 And they DEPARTED into a DESERT PLACE by ship PRIVATELY” Mark 6:30-32.

“Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God” 2 Corinthians 5:20.
