THIS CHRISTMAS – WHAT IS IT TO YOU

THIS CHRISTMAS – WHAT IS IT TO YOU: IS IT – CHRISTMAS Or XMAS – I Know It’s CHRIST For Christmas And Not An ‘X’ For XMAS!

(An extract from my yearly publication on Christmas on – Achievers FAITH Digest Publications, e.g. AFD DECEMBER 2014 EDITION). BLESSED READ.

It’s imperative to commemorate and celebrate Christ birth. In being objective, I have sectioned the word Christmas in this way. That is, CHRIST and MAS.

Wherefore, Christ – means, the anointed One, the Messiah, the Saviour, the Holy one of Israel and the Redeemer. And ‘MAS’ for ‘MASS’ means – The Gathering – To Celebrate, Commemorate and Observe.

CHRISTMAS in this context is the yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s love in the birth of Christ and His REDEMPTION cause on Earth.

Hence, signifying the sharing of that grace and the benediction of the triune God which is expressed through their love to mankind as in 2 Corinthians 13:14:

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. Amen”

Some have replaced the ‘Christ’ of Christmas with an ‘X’ for Xmas. Probably because they are ignorant or they can’t comprehend and imagine the good that Christ brings into Christmas, hence they chose the use of the negative connotations that ‘X’ represents. You see it in advert through the media, Christmas cards and such like places to undermine the true essence for which Christ was born and named in Christmas.

CHRIST is not the same as ‘X’ connotation. It is not a worthwhile abbreviation either by any margins.

However there are other opinions about Christmas, while some say Christmas is not important and is not worth any form of commemoration and celebration because it’s a heathen day, a pagan holiday. Others indicate that December 25th is not the day on which Christ was born and some even claimed it’s in October. Some people also say that He was born spiritual and not with physical nature – not in humanity. According to some it is for pagans and Satanists due to the glamorous events and activities that are now associated to this date especially with the financial indiscipline and indebtedness people entangle themselves into as a result of the celebration. and commemoration in quote.

May I say that just because the enemy perverts and distorts the meaning and essence of the celebration of Christmas, does not mean that we should let go of that which we believe is of God – that is, that Christ was BORN for us all according to the scriptures irrespective of individuals or selective fews indignation of Christ birth in humanity. 1 Timothy 3:16; 1 John 4:1-6.

For me and every supposed Spirit born child of God, what is vital in the whole scenario of indifference is that Christ was born in the flesh – humanity. This is without controversy as endorsed in 1 Timothy 3:16. Dates and times not withstanding and should not be an issue, but the act of acknowledging this very fact and truth of God in the light of the Holy Scriptures makes the journey of the Christian FAITH meaningful and fulfilling to anyone that believes in Christ Jesus as saviour and Lord even as it’s written.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And WITHOUT CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the FLESH (HUMANITY), justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16.

“Beloved, believe not EVERY spirit, but TRY (EXAMINE) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that CONFESSETH that Jesus Christ is COME in the FLESH (HUMANITY) is of God: 3 and every spirit that CONFESSETH NOT that Jesus Christ is COME in the FLESH (HUMANITY) is NOT of God: and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now ALREADY is it in the WORLD. 4 Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5 They ARE of the WORLD: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of TRUTH, and the spirit of ERROR” 1 John 4:1-6 (Emphasis Mine).

“That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of EVERY GOOD thing which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

CHRISTMAS is a bonding time for families and those we care about. And one gracious and graceful great thing about Christmas and THIS CHRISTMAS – it’s a time to SETTLE SCORES, FORGIVE, JUSTIFY and EMBRANCE. But in some homes and families, it’s the opposite today and even now; for them it’s a time for in-fighting, counting wrongs, blames, confusion and such likes. These various failures ought not to be so – simply because of the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus that SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS your human (Sense) KNOWLEDGE has been shed and showed in our hearts by the Holy Spirit that indwells in us all – Romans 5:5.

I therefore PRAY as Apostle Paul for you today and even now – that you may KNOW and UNDERSTAND the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus that surpasses and transcends your human concept of five senses KNOWLEDGE of God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus that concerns you, family and those you care about. This is to enable you enjoy the FULNESS of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

MERRY CHRISTMAS! BLESSED CELEBRATION AND COMMEMORATION!!

“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 this CAUSE I bow my KNEES unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 of whom the whole FAMILY in HEAVEN and EARTH is NAMED, 16 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 may be ABLE to COMPREHEND with ALL saints what is the BREATH, and LENGHT, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 AND TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, WHICH PASSETH KNOWLEDGE, THAT YE MIGHT BE FILLED WITH ALL THE FULNESS OF GOD. 20 Now unto him that is ABLE to DO EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ALL all that we ASK or THINK, according to the power that worketh in us, 21 unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen” Ephesians 3:14-21.

“Let LOVE be without hypocrisy. ABHOR what is EVIL. Cling to what is good. 10 Be KINDLY AFFECTIONATE to one another with brotherly LOVE, in honor giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 DISTRIBUTING to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality. 14 BLESS those who PERSECUTE you; BLESS and do not CURSE. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. 17 REPAY no one EVIL FOR EVIL. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, LIVE PEACEABLY with all men. 19 Beloved, do not AVENGE yourselves, but rather GIVE place to WRATH; for it is written, “VENGEANCE IS MINE, I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 Therefore “IF YOUR ENEMY IS HUNGRY, FEED HIM; IF HE IS THIRSTY, GIVE HIM A DRINK; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.” 21 Do not be OVERCOME by evil, but overcome evil with good” Romans 12:9-21 (Ref: Proverbs 25:21-22)

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: CHRISTMAS And CHURCH SERVICES – Find One Near You And Attend!

**What is CHRISTMAS – is the yearly commemoration & Celebration of God’s LOVE to mankind in the BIRTH of our Lord & Saviour Christ Jesus and His REDEMPTION CAUSE on earth.

**What is the CHURCH – is the voluntarily gathering of people to FELLOWSHIP with each other and WORSHIP and SERVE God WORTHILY and ACCEPTABLY under a designated Shepherd – Pastor.

The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the MORNING or at start it is called the GATHERING or COMING TOGETHER – The MASS Service – Celebration and Commemoration – Hebrews 10:24-25; while in the EVENING or at closing it is called BENEDICTION – Professing, Declaration, Proclamation – which is the act of PRAYER in endorsing and invoking the divine Trinity. And that is: “The GRACE – which is The ACTS of Christ; The LOVE – which is The ACTS of the Father God; and The COMMUNION (Fellowship) – which is The ACTS of the Holy Spirit. 2 Corinthians 13:14.

These BENEDICTION ACTS are often said after this manner occasionally: “May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit” be with you and those you care about – This Christmas. Amen.

Therefore, endeavour to attend to the Church services near you if there’s an opening of their door of services on Christmas day. And to know full well that:

“SELFISHNESS makes CHRISTMAS a burden but LOVE makes CHRISTMAS an INDESCRIBABLE celebration and commemoration of PEACE, HOPE, FAITH, JOY and GOODWILL to all mankind”

“And let us CONSIDER one another to PROVOKE unto LOVE and to GOOD WORKS: 25 not FORSAKING the ASSEMBLING of ourselves together, as the MANNER of some is; but EXHORTING one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25.

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.

MY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS DIGEST LETTER TO YOU!

Dear Friend,

SOME TEN GOLDEN RULES TO ASSIST YOU IN THIS CHRISTMAS

WHAT’S CHRISTMAS: A yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s love to mankind in the birth of our Lord and Saviour – Christ Jesus and His cause on earth.

Some Ten Golden Rules I Love You To Observe:

1ST RULE:

You shall prepare your soul for Christmas – Romans 12:1-2.

We need to prepare a room in the Inn of our heart for the Lord in this Christmas –Revelation 3:20; Luke 2:7b

2ND RULE:

You shall not over burden the Sale Clerk with your worries – Matthew 6:25-34 (note especially vs. 33 – the need to seek right).

We need not let the worry of gifts – Shoes, games, transport, groceries, clothing’s, jewelleries and other shopping and shoppers to weigh us down and get into debt.

3RD RULE:

You shall give yourself with your gift – 2 Corinthians 8:1-5; 2 Corinthians 9:7-11; Psalm 49:6-9.

Give God your heart before your material gains and gifts: Give me your heart, the Lord requires first before anything. Your life is worth to God than your gift.

4TH RULE:

You shall not value gift by their cost – Luke 21:1-5; Matthew 2:11.

The least expensive gift may speak LOVE and with great hearts than the costly.

5TH RULE:

You shall not leave (keep) Christ outside Christmas – Matthew 2:13.

Joseph was with Christ on and in Christmas mood hence he could hear God of the enemy plan – King Herod’s – against baby Jesus. Don’t let Christmas be used for evil work to you and your family.

6TH RULE:

You shall not allow Father Christmas to replace Christ in your heart and that of your family – Ephesians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:27; Luke 2:11.

Some has put up some masquerade acts to display in devilish mood, terrorising and frightening people in the name of Christmas. Don’t get people hurt please.

7TH RULE:

You shall not forget and neglect the needy – James 1:27; 2:14-20.

Christmas is a very good time to extend God’s love to you to the needy around you. For the have not will always be among us the scriptures says – Deuteronomy 15:11; Mark 14:7.

8TH RULE:

You shall not neglect your Church of gathering for Fellowship and Worship – Hebrews 10:25.

What is the Church? It is the voluntarily gathering of people to fellowship with one another and to worship God in spirit and truth. The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the morning it is called MASS – Celebration and Commemoration while in the evening – it is called BENEDICTION.

9TH RULE:

You shall be as a little Child – Mark 10:15

It takes a childhood heart to embrace the spirit of Christ birth called Christmas.

Hence it’s a time of childhood spirit and not childish attitude which we see on our streets during this period.

10TH RULE:

You shall worship and give your heart to Christ – Matthew 2:11; John 3:16; Revelation 3:20; John 1:12.

Let Christ be at the top of your Christmas. Prepare and decorate your hearts much more to your house.

AND FINALLY:

SELFISHNESS makes Christmas a BURDEN but LOVE makes Christmas – PEACE, LOVE, GOOD WILL and JOYFUL.

BLESSED COMMEMORATION and CELEBRATION

Merry Christmas and Blessed Regards

In God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus,

The Christmas REASON

By Leave a Comment

The Christmas REASON: The Expression SEASON Of God’s LOVE to HUMANITY – In RELATIONSHIP And FELLOWSHIP!

By virtue of birth, my wonderful children have an awesome RELATIONSHIP with me. But if any is to enjoy a MORE THAN the usual, normal and generalised blessings, they have to engage in a constant FELLOWSHIP to know and understand the path to it, that’s their RESPONSIBILITY.

Much more in the same scenario, by virtue of God’s love in Christ Jesus’ we obtain RELATIONSHIP in our being born of God (comely called Born Again). But if we are to enjoy the fullness of God, we must endeavour to explore a FELLOWSHIP decorum with Him.

Adam lost his FELLOWSHIP at Eden and it cost him at Eden as we know. Jesus in humanity maximise His FELLOWSHIP in His humanity and He made all the difference as we know.

This is not about Church or special programs and busy prayer meetings and schedules, but how much of FELLOWSHIP you are having and engaging with Father God personally. This is good and necessary, in order to enhance and boost your worth in Him and for Him. This is what ‘THIS CHRISTMAS” in ‘THIS DECEMBER” and ‘THIS DAY” should be about – The REASON for the SEASON.

It is the FELLOWSHIP that strengthens RELATIONSHIP. Sin hinders the fellowship and in time destroys and erases the relationship as in Eden. Hence during this SEASON of Christmas, give room for the REASON, that is, God’s love in Christ Jesus in relationship for fellowship to count and account for you and your good.

Make time to be ‘ALONE WITH FATHER GOD’ and have your own ACQUAINTANCE with Him. For LOVE makes Christmas a gracious event while SELFISHNESS (SELF-CENTEREDNESS) makes it a burden and pain.

May you have an amazing Christmas in all you do I pray.

Every Blessing.

“God is faithful, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“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” 1 John 1:5-7.

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there PRAYED (FELLOWSHIP)” Mark 1:35 (Emphasis Mine).

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Psalms 16:11).

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature (CREATION): old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (Emphasis Mine).

This Is FREEDOM CHRISTMAS – It’s To Stop SIN CONSCIOUSNESS

By Leave a Comment

This Is FREEDOM CHRISTMAS – It’s To Stop SIN CONSCIOUSNESS: No More SIN Fishing – FOR YOU ARE GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS In Christ Jesus!

It’s time to live FREE by THIS CHRISTMAS and even now, for our FREEDOM time is come in Christ Birth.

The reason for the season of Christmas commemoration and celebration is all about God’s LOVE in demonstration through the BIRTH of Christ. It’s not to activate SIN or make SIN CONSCIOUSNESS, meaning it’s not to make you GUILTY again and again, but to give and make us receive God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus, because God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus is STRONGER than the stings and pangs of SIN.

Hence the scriptures of Micah says God had buried our inequities under the SEA of forgetfulness and I say to you – NO FISHĪNG or NO MORE FISHING!

Meaning, don’t go fishing what God has forgiven you of, no matter the gravity of it. Don’t go feeling guilty with memory of events that had happened. No fishing! This is your freedom Christmas.

“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH INIQUITY, and PASSETH by the TRANSGRESSION of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH not his ANGER for ever, because he DELIGHTEH in MERCY. 19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will SUBDUE our INIQUITIES; and thou wilt cast ALL their SINS into the DEPTHS of the SEA” Micah 7:18-19.

Don’t go and visit place or places of reminder, even if it is called a Church. Go to a place or places where you are WELCOME and RECEIVE; and the LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus is celebrated to enhance your FREEDOM and REDEMPTION in Him.

Living in SIN CONSCIOUSNESS will invite the enemy and that will rob you of your worth and dignity especially during this period of expressing true LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS to fellow men because of Christ.

“For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who knew no SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Let LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS possess your day, that’s what makes Christmas worth expressing and everything. This CHRISTMAS is about God’s LOVE and your access to FREEDOM in Christ and not to LIVE IN GUILT anymore.

GOD’S GRACE AND BLESSINGS.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

BE EMBOLDENED

BE EMBOLDENED: TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – NO MATTER WHAT!

Beloved in Christ – no matter what’s going on in your life today, I challenge you to always stand EMBOLDENED; and to TAKE and MAKE – A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – ON and FOR your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead.

Save yourself from every form of questioning on your justified REDEMPTION in Christ; and from SIN and it’s effect in terms of these: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH, by taking a STAND UP against the enemy and cohorts in order to keep them at bay; and holding forth steadfastly the affirmation of your Faith in Christ Jesus against all odds. Amen.

Let none keep you on the low or down by any means – to bring back the memory of sin, sinful nature, setback, failures and defeat and such likes. In Christ Jesus you are PRICELESS; and have an awesome, fabulous and gorgeous WORTH in grace.

Your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus is a DONE DEED – Period! STAND ON it And FOR it daily – no matter what. Be steadfast and steadily STANDING ON your REDEMPTION GROUND; and to keep STANDING AGAINST any contrary.

Meaning be more CONSCIOUSNESS of who YOU ARE in CHRIST JESUS, than of what SATAN and COHORTS are in SIN and FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS.

When you give the enemy and cohorts NO ATTENTION, they will give you NO DIRECTION to travel along.

DON’T BE A WALK OVER BELIEVER BY ANYONE OR ANYTHING – RATHER – BE EMBOLDENED TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – NO MATTER WHAT.

Have A Blessed Day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

HEREIN ARE SOME WISDOM NUGGETS – SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION:

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION of our FAITH without WAVERING; (for he is FAITHFUL that promised;)” Hebrews 10:23.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST in the FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGHTEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-12.

“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST the WILES of the devil. . . 14 STAND therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness” Ephesians 6:11, 14.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature (creation, Person, personality): OLD things are passed away; behold, all things are become NEW . . . 21 For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who knew no SIN; that we MIGHT be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in HIM” 2 Corinthians 5:17, 21 (Emphasis mine)

“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.

“Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that the BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE the promise of the Spirit through faith” Galatians 3:13-14.

MONTH DECEMBER 2020

MONTH DECEMBER 2020: EMMANUEL – JESUS THE CHRIST – BORN IN OUR HEARTS!

Month DECEMBER as all know, is the Month TWELVE (12) of the Georgian Calendar Months. It happen to be the last in the numerical Monthly count of the yearly numbering. Besides this, there are other indications of the number TWELVE. Herein are few for your perusal:

** The number 12 is ubiquitous — it’s the number of months in a year, hours on a clock face and the number of members on a typical court jury.

** The number 12 is mentioned often in the New Testament of the Bible, such as Jesus’ selection of 12 apostles. That choice was deliberate, with each apostle representing one of the 12 tribes of Israel. In the most of cases number 12 is actually a representation of authority and perfection.

** This number can also represent the church and faith in general. It can be also used as a symbol of divine rule, actually the symbol of the perfect government of God.

While Month DECEMBER is unique in many ways, in terms of been the twelve as mentioned above, it’s also gracious to enhance the goodness and blessedness of the BEAUTY in DECEMBER as per the Scriptural writs of the month DECEMBER theme:

“For unto you is born THIS DAY in the city of David a SAVIOUR, which is Christ the Lord” Luke 2:11.

“Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST” Matthew 16:20.

“Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, GOD WITH US” Matthew 1:23.

THIS DAY – BEING TODAY – LET – EMMANUEL – JESUS THE CHRIST – BE BORN – IN YOUR HEARTS. Upon this phrase in terms that the Month DECEMBER 2020 is Themed.

EMMANUEL – mean – God With Us – thus signifies God dwelling (or comes to dwell) with humanity – thereby creates a new passage for a new kind of RELATIONSHIP between us and Him. We lost this FELLOWSHIP in Eden of Adam; but God in His LOVE at the Birth of JESUS The Christ, RESTORED this awesome FELLOWSHIP to enhance our RELATIONSHIP In Him, in the CAUSE of His REDEMPTION for us in Christ Jesus stead.

God in humanity is JESUS in name; while CHRIST depicts Him as – the Messiah, the Saviour, the Redeemer and the Holy one of Israel for His cause on earth for human redemption.

We’ve been called into this FELLOWSHIP that we might enjoy God and the heavens on earth again, so we can say that as He is, so are we in this world and can joyfully ask of His will in our domain on this side of heaven call the earth as it’s written in the Holy Writ – 1 John 4:17, Matthew 6:10. This is the REASON then for the SEASON, the DECEMBER mood that comes along with CHRISTMAS which thus is:

“The Yearly And Annual COMMEMORATION And CELEBRATION of God’s LOVE In Christ Jesus And His REDEMPTION CAUSE On EARTH”

It is as we EXPLORE this relationship and fellowship of JESUS The Christ and as our God EMMANUEL, who is now here living – IN us, FOR us and WITH us – that is when our PATH OF LIFE is ordered and we can then enjoy to the FULNESS the abounding PLEASURES of God in His grace and BLESSEDNESS forevermore.

Today as in this Month DECEMBER that prelude the CHRISTMAS season, let us take advantage of the indwelling EMMANUEL – JESUS the Christ, to enjoy continuously, God’s presence in fellowship with us and in our path of life – to keep us thriving, blossoming and glowing with His pleasures in life and godliness.

Therefore Today, THIS DAY, I pray that Emmanuel comes to be in your life, in this Month DECEMBER, this season that prelude the Christmas, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1Corinthians 1:9.

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy PRESENCE is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” Psalms 16:11.

There Is The Need For A VOICE Not An ECHO In Today’s World

There Is The Need For A VOICE Not An ECHO In Today’s World: Especially In The WILDERNESS of Life – Be The VOICE!

God EYES is going to and fro through the earth and in the business of making and raising a VOICE that will speak forth graciously and gracefully to the worlds about them with an answer of the WORD of HOPE, FAITH and LOVE. I dare on you to join the journey today. But it known that God is not about the ECHO, CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKERS that are distorting or will distort the good will of the worlds about them and their community. For God is not the AUTHOR of CONFUSION; and where His Spirit is at work, there is LIBERATION, WHOLENESS, PEACE and FREEDOM; and not involved in the CONFUSION that’s resulting to SCHISM today. God is not confused neither does He confused His own. 1 Corinthians 14:33; 2 Corinthians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 12:3.

When people are in life VALLEYS and the MOUNTAINS and HILLS seems so high; and the life roads seems so ROUGH; and the path of life and path for life seems so CROOKED; what they need is a VOICE not an ECHO, CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKERS to speak into their life. They need a VOICE, such that the Mountain and hills becomes a plain, the valley is exalted, the rough road becomes smooth and the crooked path becomes straight.

And today I am asking you – Are you then a VOICE or an ECHO, CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKER? Won’t you love to be God’s VOICE to the worlds about you, especially your family and the community you surround yourself with? Examine within and make it right today. Be a VOICE in today’s world and not an ECHO, a CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKER. God is in the making of a VOICE as you. A VOICE with NO VILE in the MOUTH, but GRACIOUS and PRECIOUS within. And If you intend to be God’s MOUTH piece, His earthly VOICE vessel, there is the need to empty the VILE from the PRECIOUS within. For out of the abundance of the hearts, a VOICE is known by the heavens to be His MOUTH piece.

THERE IS THE NEED FOR A VOICE NOT AN ECHO IN TODAY’S WORLD – ESPECIALLY IN THE WILDERNESS OF LIFE – BE THE VOICE

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“A good man out of the GOOD TREASURE of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the EVIL TREASURE of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART HIS MOUTH SPEAKETH” Luke 6:45 (Matthew 12:34).

“And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the PRECIOUS from the VILE, thou shalt BE AS MY MOUTH: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them” Jeremiah 15:19.

“The VOICE of him that crieth in THE WILDERNESS, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and every MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be made LOW: and the CROOKED shall be made STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH places PLAIN: 5 and the GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and all flesh shall see it together: for the MOUTH of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 40:3-5.
