ENACTING THE ENABLING – “POWER TO FUNCTION AND GRACE TO BECOME”

March 7, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

ENACTING THE ENABLING – “POWER TO FUNCTION AND GRACE TO BECOME”: THROUGH THE “KNOWLEDGE” – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret. 35 And when the men of that place HAD KNOWLEDGE OF HIM, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased; 36 and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as TOUCHED were MADE PERFECTLY WHOLE” Matthew 14:34-36.

“And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they SPAKE THE WORD of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:31, 33.

Lots of Believer’s supposedly in the Faith of Christ Jesus stead, are living outside the CONTEXT of God’s WORD; many are MORE captivated and influenced by the religious and denominational rites and doctrinal ordinances as they strictly adhere and follow without check and balance – which is through the KNOWLEDGE of God in Christ Jesus stead. For the Scriptures makes it very clear that not ALL HAVE FAITH in the FAITH in Christ Jesus – meaning not all have their spirit being built upon the KNOWLEDGE of God in Christ Jesus, which principle CONTEXT is of the WORD of God that builds and establishes the FAITH in all that comes to God in Christ Jesus. Amen – 2 Thessalonians 3:2 (1-4); Romans 10:17; Acts 20:32; Romans 1:8-12; Hebrews 4:12-13; 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

I want you to know full well, that it’s the KNOWLEDGE of the TRUTH that one possess within, that sets one FREE – SAVES, DELIVERS and LIBERATES – from all forms of limitations and restrictions and bondages outside the CONTEXT of God’s WORD. John 8:32; 1 Timothy 2:4-5; Acts 4:12.

And through KNOWLEDGE you communicate the WORD OF FAITH to matters. it’s only by communicating the WORD OF FAITH to MATTERS of doing life and living godly through the KNOWLEDGE of the GOOD did, that’s DONE and DEED in Christ Jesus, that brings genuine liberty and freedom, that all seeks to attain and possess, in order to be fulfilled in God, in Christ Jesus stead – Philemon 1:4-6; Romans 10:8-13, 17.

“Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I PROFIT you, except I shall SPEAK to you either by REVELATION, or by KNOWLEDGE, or by PROPHESYING, or by DOCTRINE? 7 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a DISTINCTION in the sounds, how shall it be KNOWN what is piped or harped?” 1 Corinthians 14:6-7.

Many are in captivity and in various self-afflicted bondage for their lack of PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE which indeed is dangerous, jeopardous and worrisome each time I recall – how many SUFFERED in the Bible days as written:

“My people are DESTROYED for LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that thought shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6.

“Therefore my people are GONE INTO CAPTIVITY, because they have NO KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst . . .” Isaiah 5:13-15.

Besides, the indicative of the above mentioned scriptures, many also, are working and walking in ERRORS and are been MISTAKEN for lack of KNOWLEDGE as it affects the path of doing life and living godly as the religious SADDUCEES where, in the days of Christ Jesus humanity, as it’s written.

“The same day came to Him (Jesus Christ) the SADDUCEES, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him . . . 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR (IN ERROR AND MISTAKEN), NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor THE POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 Emphasis Mine.

Therefore I plead with you today to get engrossed with doing life and godly living THROUGH KNOWLEDGE for these but not limited reasons:

** DELIVERANCE – THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE:

” . . . but THROUGH KNOWLEDGE shall the just be DELIVERED” Proverbs 11:9.

“Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who GAVE himself for our sins, that he might DELIVER US FROM THIS PRESENT EVIL WORLD, according to the WILL of God and our Father: 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Galatians 1:3-5.

** GRACE AND PEACE, DIVINE POWER AND DIVINE NATURE – THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE:

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4

** TO ESCAPE POLLUTION OF THE WORLD – THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE:

“For if after they have ESCAPED THE POLLUTIONS of the world THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning” 2 Peter 2:20.

** WISDOM AND REVELATION – IN THE KNOWLEDGE!

“. . .16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of WISDOM and REVELATION IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM: 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. . .” Ephesians 1:15-23.

** OVERCOME BARRENNESS AND UNFRUITFULNESS – IN THE KNOWLEDGE!

“For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ” 2 Peter 1:8.

** RENEW, REFRESH, REJUVENATE – IN THE KNOWLEDGE

“And have put on the new man, which is RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE after the image of him that created him” Colossians 3:10.

I will like you to take an assignment for yourself by making out time towards searching the scriptures to find out, mark and highlight every SCRIPTURAL place that indicates – THROUGH KNOWLEDGE, BY KNOWLEDGE, IN KNOWLEDGE AND SUCH LIKE. You will discover lots of what you’ve become in God, in Christ Jesus stead. It will bring forth a transformation and translation that will revitalise you beyond words because of the insights and foresight trajectory of the revelation you will receive of God. Give you go from today.

Be Blessed with God’s enabling POWER to FUNCTION and His GRACE to BECOME accordingly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“A wise man is strong; yea, a man of KNOWLEDGE increaseth strength” Proverbs 24:5.

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15 (Ephesians 4:8-16).

“But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 THAT I MAY KNOW HIM, AND THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION, AND THE FELLOWSHIP OF HIS SUFFERINGS, BEING MADE CONFORMABLE UNTO HIS DEATH; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you. 16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing” Philippians 3:7-16.

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with all thy getting get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the Congregation of the DEAD (UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 21:16 Emphasis Mine.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the WAY OF TRANSGRESSORS IS HARD (DIFFICULT)” Proverbs 13:15 Emphasis Mine.

ENSURING THE PROFITABLE LIVING IN THE FAITH

March 5, 2024 By Pastor Chukie 1 Comment

ENSURING THE PROFITABLE LIVING IN THE FAITH: LIMITED BY AN UNBELIEF!

“BLESSED be the Lord, who DAILY LOADETH US WITH BENEFITS, even the God of our SALVATION. Selah” Psalms 68:19.

Our God of the heavens and the earth, have ensured in His assured redemption in Christ Jesus, that all who comes to know and accept Him as the only true God and in Christ Jesus by FAITH, through the effectual working of the Holy Spirit of conviction and conversion, are to be beneficiary’s of His BLESSEDNESS [Acts 20:20-21; John 17:2; John 3:16]. And to ensure His word, we are enjoined to know in the Holy writ of Psalms 68:19, that God in His BLESSEDNESS wants us to have LOADS of the BENEFITS of being His people in Christ Jesus as the chosen generation [1 Peter 2:9-10]. And He ensures that we are LOADED DAILY with His BENEFITS (PROFITS) in the BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead as enjoined the Holy writ of Psalms 68:19 above.

And having a BEFITTING LIFE, means having a PROFITABLE LIVING; and it’s in God’s good hearted thoughts, plans and intentions for His children. And He wants to give ALL His children a hope and a future in His set default in redemption rights and privileges in Christ Jesus – and this rights and privileges in redemption, have been rightly set in place from the beginning of time as a default. And it’s of our CHOICE to ensure that our God’s intent for us to have a PROFITABLE LIVING as we SERVE Him ACCEPTABLY and WORSHIP in WORTHILY in spirit and in truth comes to reality.

“A GLORIOUS THRONE, set on HIGH from the BEGINNING, is the PLACE of our sanctuary (the temple)” Jeremiah 17:12/AMP.

“For I know the THOUGHTS and PLANS that I have for you, says the Lord, THOUGHTS and PLANS for WELFARE and PEACE and NOT FOR EVIL, to give you HOPE in your FINAL OUTCOME” Jeremiah 29:11/AMP [Classic Edition]

Having now known that, to BENEFIT is to PROFIT in any endeavour of exercise, especially in the fulness of God’s given grace, upon which we stand justified by faith and have access by faith, toward God and faith in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ – what manner of person ought we to be in order to have the promised PROFITABLE LIVING [BENEFITING LIFE] to become a daily reality as we do life and live godly.

Now you’ve known God’s gracious intent and plans and thoughts towards you, you need to know that the major predicament, danger, limitation or hindrance that will prohibits and take us off from having the daily ASSURED PROFITABLE LIVING is UNBELIEF. Unbelief is a spiritual cancerous disease that’s unbounding in affecting the reason why many are not actualising the fulness of God’s promised BLESSEDNESS in redemption.

The effects and results of UNBELIEF it’s that it takes one to unscriptural places while others do find themselves in places they ought not to be in seeking for answers. Some ends up in sorcery, divining, witchcraft, magic and such like places eventually as in [Deuteronomy 18:9-14; Acts 19:13-20]; and while some overtime find themselves in the hands of falsehoods ministers as ‘Simon of Samaria’ and many others who appears as angels of light and ministers of God but are ravening wolves in sheep clothing’s and Satan cohorts agents that infiltrating into the Church [Acts 8:9-25 (1-25); 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; Matthew 7:15; Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Peter 5:8-10].

UNBELIEF have robbed many of their BLESSEDNESS in redemption. And God abhors those who have UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING toward His word – written or spoken or by any format factor in context, to meet their respective needs of Him. UNBELIEF hinders FAITH operation in every endeavour that one intend to embarks upon in the name of God. For without FAITH it’s impossible to please God [Hebrews 11:6]. And it’s impossible to OVERCOME the world system of doing life that contravenes the default of God and that’s set in operation to give one the assured profitable living according to the scripture [1 John 5:4-5]. For all things is possible with God and to them that believe only.

“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is IMPOSSIBLE; but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Matthew 19:26 [Mark 10:27].

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

UNBELIEF creates fears; and fear phobia’s torments, subverts and keeps one from actualising the enabling gracious gifts and power of God [2 Timothy 1:6-7; 1 John 4:17-18; Hebrews 2:14-15; Luke 1:68-75]; the spirit of fear is not only that it leads to bondages, but it’s a bondage and it captivates the human spirit, making life a challenging and difficult atmosphere to ensure that the assured PROFITABLE LIVING becomes a reality.

“Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou STIR UP THE GIFT of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath NOT GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR [TIMIDITY, COWARDICE]; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:6-7.

“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love; but perfect love CASTETH OUT FEAR: because FEAR hath TORMENT. He that FEARETH is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18.

“Forasmuch then as the children are PARTAKERS of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the POWER of death, that is, the devil; 15 and DELIVER them who through FEAR of death were all their LIFETIME SUBJECT TO BONDAGE” Hebrews 2:14-15.

“BLESSED be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath VISITED and REDEEMED his people . . . 74 that he would grant unto us, that we being DELIVERED out of THE HAND of our ENEMIES might SERVE HIM WITHOUT FEAR, 75 in holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life” Luke 1:68-75.

And with the grip of fear, it makes the redeemed intending to serve God question God’s word and doubt Him through UNBELIEF. Hence, UNBELIEF is not of God; God detest UNBELIEF; and Jesus emphasised it severally, over and over in His humanity, that UNBELIEF will rob one of the BLESSEDNESS in Him, in redemption, and hinders the Father God’s intent – which is to LOAD US DAILY, with the benefitting life [profitable living] as ASSUREDLY promised.

“Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, WHY COULD NOT WE CAST HIM OUT? 20 And Jesus said unto them, BECAUSE OF YOUR UNBELIEF: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you” Matthew 17:19-20 [Matthew 13:57-58].

“And he could there DO NO MIGHTY WORK, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. 6 And He MARVELLED because of their UNBELIEF. And he went round about the villages, teaching” Mark 6:5-6 [Mark 16:14-15].

And in the context of the Believer’s of God in Christ Jesus, PROFITABLE LIVING it’s all about experiencing the BENEFITS as a beneficiary – having a BENEFITTING LIFE [PROFITABLE LIVING] in the FAITH of God in Christ Jesus. There’s an assured profitable living in the FAITH wherein God had set us free in Christ Jesus. And Father God in our redemption in Christ Jesus, wants us to profit, that’s to benefit in the fulness of His grace for us. Unbelief is the act of not mixing the word of God with FAITH to PLEASE God and the ABSENCE of God in one’s life – for only by FAITH that one can bring about their earnest desires into fruition through God’s word in Christ Jesus. For the children of ISRAELITES did not PROFIT to enter their promised BLESSEDNESS, simply because of UNBELIEF [a rejection and an absence of God]. They arrogantly did not mix the preached word they heard with faith and it costs them deadly at the end.

“For unto us was the GOSPEL PREACHED, as well as unto them: but THE WORD PREACHED DID NOT PROFIT THEM, not being MIXED with FAITH in them that heard it” Hebrews 4:2.

“For indeed we have had the GLAD TIDINGS [GOSPEL OF GOD] PROCLAIMED to us just as truly as they [the ISRAELITES of old did when the GOOD NEWS of deliverance from bondage came to them]; but the MESSAGE they heard DID NOT BENEFIT them, because it was NOT MIXED WITH FAITH (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they united in faith with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe)” Hebrews 4:2/AMP [Classic Edition].

“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 . . . 18 And to whom SWARE He that they should NOT ENTER INTO HIS REST, BUT TO THEM THAT BELIEVED NOT? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of UNBELIEF” Hebrews 3:12-13, 28-19.

Many will God to hell on eternal damnation for their UNBELIEF. For simply on them not believing that God’s love for them in His Son Jesus Christ, and for the UNBELIEF cause in totality in the rejection of the redemption essence and for the UNBELIEF cause in undermining the complete and wholesome actualisation of the PROFITABLE LIVING, as enjoined in the scriptures for their well-being.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HATH NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“And [at the same time] Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and confidently, saying, “It was necessary that God’s message [of salvation through faith in Christ] be spoken to you [Jews] first. Since you REPUDIATE it and JUDGE yourselves unworthy of eternal life, now we turn to the Gentiles . . . 48 When the Gentiles HEARD this, they began rejoicing and glorifying [praising and giving thanks for] the word of the Lord; and all those who had been appointed (designated, ordained) to eternal life [by God] BELIEVED [in Jesus as the Christ and their Savior]” Acts 13:46, 48/AMP.

“. . . 9 For in Him [Christ Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 AND YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM [CHRIST JESUS], which is the head of all principality and power . . .” Colossians 2:8-15.

The Bible, which is God-breathed WORD, it’s God’s instructions, counsel, correction, restoration, training and such like, for our PROFITABLE LIVING in Christ Jesus stead. And it’s as we LIVE through the SCRIPTURES in faith on the WORD of grace, we can share in the promised BLESSEDNESS, as many others before us, in our PROFITABLE LIVING inheritance in Him.

“All SCRIPTURE is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is PROFITABLE for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work“ 2 Timothy 3:16-17/Amplified [AMP].

“For WHATEVER was WRITTEN in earlier TIMES was WRITTEN for our INSTRUCTION, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the SCRIPTURES we might have HOPE and OVERFLOW with CONFIDENCE in His PROMISES” Romans 15:4/Amplified [AMP].

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD OF HIS GRACE, which is able to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among ALL them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

Therefore, I do hope that you can now be intentional and pragmatical today, to be resolved within you, to start living by FAITH and BELIEVING God and His WORD, instead of living in UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING that robs you of the best of God, as you choose to step up in an onward and upward trajectory, as do life and live godly, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Blessed read.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For WHATSOEVER things were WRITTEN AFORETIME were WRITTEN for our LEARNING, that we through patience and comfort of the SCRIPTURES might HAVE hope” Romans 15:4.

“For WHATEVER was thus WRITTEN in FORMER days was WRITTEN for our INSTRUCTION, that by [our steadfast and patient] endurance and the encouragement [drawn] from the SCRIPTURES we might HOLD FAST to and CHERISH hope” Romans 13:4/Amplified [Classic Edition]

“For unto us was the GOSPEL PREACHED, as well as unto them: but the WORD PREACHED did not PROFIT them, not being MIXED WITH FAITH in them that heard it” Hebrews 4:2.

“For indeed we have had the GOOD NEWS [of salvation] PREACHED to us, just as the Israelites also [when the GOOD NEWS of the promised land came to them]; but the message they heard did not BENEFIT them, because it was not UNITED with FAITH [in God] by those who heard” Hebrews 4:2/Amplified [AMP].

“For indeed we have had the GLAD TIDINGS [GOSPEL of God] PROCLAIMED to us just as truly as they [the Israelites of old did when the GOOD NEWS OF DELIVERANCE from bondage came to them]; but the MESSAGE they heard did not BENEFIT them, because it was not MIXED with FAITH (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they UNITED in FAITH with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe)” Hebrews 4:2/Amplified [CLASSIC EDITION].

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED. 9 So then THEY which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.

“But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. 8 For bodily exercise PROFITETH little: but GODLINESS is PROFITABLE unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come . . . 13 Till I come, give ATTENDANCE to READING, to EXHORTATION, to DOCTRINE. 14 NEGLECT NOT THE GIFT that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 15 meditate upon these things; GIVE thyself WHOLLY to them; that thy PROFITING may appear to all” 1 Timothy 4:7-8, 13-15.

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us all things that pertain unto LIFE and GODLINESS, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are GIVEN unto us exceeding great and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having ESCAPED the CORRUPTION that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4.

“If the iron be BLUNT, and he do not WHET the edge, then must he put to MORE STRENGTH: but WISDOM is PROFITABLE to direct” Ecclesiastes 10:10.

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have SHEWED you, and have TAUGHT you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE TOWARD God, and FAITH TOWARD our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES: IT’S IN THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

March 5, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES: IT’S IN THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT – JUST LIVE AND WALK IN HIM!

“For ye WERE sometimes darkness, but now ARE ye light in the Lord: WALK as children of light: 9 (for the FRUIT of the SPIRIT is in all GOODNESS and RIGHTEOUSNESS and truth;) 10 PROVING what is ACCEPTABLE unto the Lord” Ephesians 5:8-10.

Until one begins to WALK IN THE SPIRIT as one LIVE IN THE SPIRIT, the true CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES and it’s REALITIES of the Spirit can’t be ACTUALISED in the FULLNESS of God’s given grace wherein we stand in the Faith that JUSTIFIES us and give us ACCESS to God in Christ Jesus. It thus means, you can’t just lay claim to HAVE LOVE, for example if you can’t WALK IN LOVE, or have goodness, peace, patience and more within you, you can’t walk in goodness, peace, patience and more with others. One need to both LIVE and WALK the WALK within, in the Spirit and not just the TALK.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by faith into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

So, as we take on to do life daily and the week to week, to turn into another week to week into another month to another month into the years as the Lord God tarries, it’s time not to hold back but to TRANSLATE your God given fruit of the Spirit by WALKING in them as you LIVE consciously in them. That’s how the CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES are FORMATTED and SYNCHRONISED within us into the image of Christ Jesus stead.

“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are CHANGED into the SAME IMAGE from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” 2 Corinthians 3:17-18.

Enjoy your day folks, because ‘A NEW DAY IS DAWN’ for a NEW YOU and for your BEST life, for a GREATER you in the greater God. Therefore, go do the LIVING and the WALKING, and not just in a mere TALK or TALKING of it only.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: 15 but if I tarry long, that thou mayest KNOW how thou OUGHTEST to BEHAVE (CONDUCT) thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. 16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:14-16 Emphasis Mine.

“I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye WALK worthy of the VOCATION wherewith ye are CALLED, 2 with all LOWLINESS and MEEKNESS, with LONGSUFFERING, FORBEARING one another in LOVE; 3 ENDEAVOURING to keep the UNITY of the Spirit in the bond of PEACE” Ephesians 4:1-3.

“This I say then, WALK IN THE SPIRIT, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh . . . 22 But the FRUIT 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 5:16, 22-25.

“For a GOOD TREE bringeth not forth CORRUPT FRUIT; neither doth a CORRUPT TREE bring forth GOOD FRUIT. 44 For every tree is known by his OWN fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 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 6:43-45 (Matthew 12:32-34).

“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.

SCRIPTURAL PONDERING – THE EAGLE WAY

March 4, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

SCRIPTURAL PONDERING – THE EAGLE WAY: DEALING WITH AN ENEMY!

“For though we WALK in the FLESH, we do not WAR after the FLESH: 4 (for the WEAPONS of our WARFARE are not CARNAL, but mighty through God to the PULLING down of strong holds;) 5 CASTING down IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalteth itself AGAINST the KNOWLEDGE of God, and BRINGING into CAPTIVITY every thought to the OBEDIENCE of Christ; 6 and having in a READINESS to revenge all DISOBEDIENCE, when your OBEDIENCE is fulfilled” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

“And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. 18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning FALL from heaven. 19 Behold, I give unto you POWER to TREAD on SERPENTS and SCORPIONS, and OVER ALL the POWER of the ENEMY: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven” Luke 10:17-20.

“Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. 29 HE GIVETH POWER TO THE FAINT; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 30 EVEN THE YOUTHS SHALL FAINT AND BE WEARY, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31 but they that wait upon the Lord shall RENEW THEIR STRENGTH; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” Isaiah 40:28-31.

“For which cause we FAINT not; but though our OUTWARD man perish, yet the INWARD man is RENEWED day by day” 2 Corinthians 4:16.

“THEY GO FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God” Psalms 84:7.

WELCOME TO MONTH MARCH 2023: MONTH TO DARE TO LIVE BY GOD’S ENABLING

March 1, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WELCOME TO MONTH MARCH 2023: MONTH TO DARE TO LIVE BY GOD’S ENABLING – POWER AND GRACE!

To dare to live by God’s *POWER AND GRACE* is toward being earthly useful and heavenly mindful, in order to FUNCTION and BECOME in God’s PURPOSE concerning you – in life and godliness.

“And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

Living in the fulness of God in Christ Jesus stead does not come by accident or coincidence but by the consequence of God’s WORD that’s set in REDEMPTION default-motion, to fulfil His PURPOSE, by His enabling GRACE and POWER, to enact His BLESSEDNESS toward us, in Christ Jesus stead for His PLEASURE.

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive GLORY and HONOUR and POWER: for thou hast CREATED all things, and for thy PLEASURE they are and were created” Revelation 4:11.

For we are CREATED and MADE by God’s design as in all creation, for His PLEASURE. Hence all glory, honour and power are of God and for God in Christ Jesus stead as written.

** What then is God’s POWER? – It is the enabling of God to FUNCTION and PERFORM in Life and Godliness – toward God’s PURPOSE.

** What then is God’s GRACE – The enabling of God to BECOME in Life and Godliness – toward God’s PURPOSE.

I want you to know full well, that God’s POWER in context, it’s not magical or a curious acts; and neither is it, mystical, occultic nor sorcery or attributes to demonic divination and witchcraft as we do see in many places of gathering, in the name of ‘signs and wonders and miracles’ in quotes.

Therefore, know for certain that what I am sharing here is about the enabling of God that MAKES and POSITION one with DARING spirit in life, to enable one FUNCTION by God’s Spirit and might, quickening one’s inability and weakness, in order to FULFILL Gods PURPOSE in LIFE and GODLINESS. (Acts 1:8; Zechariah 4:6/Ephesians 6:10, 19; Romans 8:28-30; 2 Peter 1:3-4).

It’s time to know again that your ABILITIES are IRRELEVANT to God’s ABILITY. And God only needs your AVAILABILITY and not your ABILITY if you must FUNCTION in His stead and BECOME in His stead. That is the exact picture God gave to Apostle Paul for him to genuinely carry His inspiration, revelation and empowerment to write more than anyone, of the New Testament Epistles.

For Apostle Paul to attained to the excellency of God in Christ Jesus, he considered his human ABILITY as dung in order to FUNCTION by God’s POWER and BECOME by His GRACE – though being a learned Lawyer under Sanhedrin, circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. Philippians 3:4-8.

To authenticate the essence of God’s POWER and GRACE, each time Apostle Paul tried to use his ABILITY to do God’s Kingdom Business, he was denied over and over again. All he hears from God was – “My GRACE is sufficient to make you BE – BECOME, while My POWER is made mighty in your availability to make you FUNCTIONAL in His PURPOSE. 2 Corinthians 12:9; Ephesians 1:11; Romans 8:28.

“Each time he said, “My GRACE is all you need. My POWER works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the POWER of Christ can work through me” 2 Corinthians 12:9 NLT (Emphasis Mine).

Therefore, if you wants God’s POWER to FUNCTION and GRACE to BECOME in God’s PURPOSE, you need to make yourself AVAILABLE on God’s terms and not on yours – for your ABILITY is zero and of no consequence in matters of God, in His GRACE and POWER, and in His BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen!

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the POWER of his might . . .19 and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel” Ephesians 6:10, 19.

“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.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED US with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN US in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 having PREDESTINATED US unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath MADE US ACCEPTED in the beloved. 7 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, the FORGIVENESS of sins, according to the riches of his grace . . .11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who worketh all things after the COUNSEL of his own will” Ephesians 1:3-7, 11.

“Though I might also have CONFIDENCE in the FLESH (HUMAN – ABILITY, POWER). If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the FLESH (HUMAN – ABILITY, POWER), I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, AND DO COUNT THEM but DUNG, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith” Philippians 3:4-8 (Emphasis Mine).

“And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. 21 But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests? 22 But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ. 23 And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him: 24 but their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him. 25 Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket. 26 And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple. 27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 28 And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. 29 And he spake BOLDLY in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him. 30 Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Cæsarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus” Acts 9:20-30.

Month MARCH 2024: Month of ensuring “PROFITABLE LIVING” in Christ Jesus stead!

AFD MARCH 2024 EDITION

WELCOME TO “MARCH 2024” MONTH THEME: THE “PROFITABLE LIVING” MONTH!

You are WELCOME to the Month MARCH – the Month of “PROFITABLE LIVING” as you step up and take your JUSTIFIED and ACCESS stand in the FAITH in Christ Jesus; it’s the Month for you to ensure that your assured rights and privileges in REDEMPTION as given in God’s promise BLESSEDNESS, now becomes your reality and your onward and upward trajectory, in obtaining your predestined INHERITANCE in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and REJOICE in HOPE of the GLORY of God” Romans 5:1-2.

This an opportune MONTH to start acting on the believe of God’s word by FAITH, especially in your justified and access stand in the grace, in order to ensure that the assured “PROFITABLE LIVING” as promised in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead, now BECOMES your reality in your DOING LIFE and LIVING GODLY by the word in contrary to the children of Israel whose UNBELIEF robs them of their reality. For GODLINESS is PROFITABLE in all that pertains to doing life in this world and the life to come.

“For UNTO us was the GOSPEL PREACHED, as well as UNTO them: but the WORD PREACHED did not PROFIT [BENEFIT] them, not being MIXED WITH FAITH in them that heard it” Hebrews 4:2/Emphasis Mine.

For in Hebrews 4:2, the scripture gives a clear summary picture of the children of Israel mindset, on why they couldn’t have their assured inheritance and enter the FULLNESS of the promised land with the promised BLESSEDNESS; and are yet the a covenant people with promised blessings, but it were eluded and eroded from many of them in their time. The short and simple storyline is because the children of Israel were asked to produce one person from each tribes to make up the twelve tribes mission, who were to go and spy the land in respect of God’s plan for them to possess the land and have it as an inheritance in their own promised BLESSEDNESS of the Gospel PREACHED to them.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which ARE of FAITH, the same ARE the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the HEATHEN through FAITH, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED. 9 So then THEY which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.

And the twelve chosen, all heard the same pulpit GOSPEL messages of God’s promised BLESSEDNESS for the land to possess as an inheritance as PREACHED to them. Since there were no written WORD as it is today, they all heard the unadulterated and undiluted Gospel word from the same servant of God – Moses; and all messages in public to all, and in same day and date, were all preached to of the Gospel of promise as the scriptures enjoined to all and especially to same people [twelve] who were going for the spying expedition; unfortunately, the Gospel PREACHED to them did not PROFIT [BENEFIT] them because of the UNBELIEF to God’s PREACHED word; and worst still, is the UNBELIEF feedback from the ten to the congregation which undermined the other two [Joshua and Caleb] who believed the PREACHED word and came back with hope and assurance to profit [benefit] the people of God.

The consequence and a result of the UNBELIEF, is that many died in the wilderness and couldn’t enter into their inherit nor the promised BLESSEDNESS of God as GIVEN and PREACHED to them. It was only the two [Joshua and Caleb] of the twelve spies and few others younger generations who believed the gospel that was PREACHED to them by the two [Joshua and Caleb], entered their INHERITANCE and the promised BLESSEDNESS of God as per the Gospel PREACHED and BELIEVED. More so, the GOSPEL didn’t PROFIT [BENEFIT] them because they didn’t MIXED the same PREACHED Gospel messages with FAITH in the faithfulness of God to His unfailing and authoritative WORD, that He’s able to ensure that the assured promised BLESSEDNESS will come to fruition in their life’s for an inheritance.

“And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be NOT SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT the PROMISES” Hebrews 6:11-12.

“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, but [will instead be] IMITATORS 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 6:11-12/Amplified [AMP].

And there are many out there today who earnestly desire the promises of God by the Gospel come to pass and have fruition in their lives but are not having it come to reality as promised. And in most of the time, it’s the same UNBELIEF and not MIXING up the preached GOSPEL by FAITH. And some, instead of them returning to the WORD of God to resolve the missing links, some have resolved to seek or go into the another form of Gospel that leads to PERVERT, ADULTERATION and INDOCTRINATIONS and religious oblations and such like as Apostle Paul warns and other Apostle request that we contend steadfastly in the faith against them [Philippians 1:15-18; Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; 1 Peter 5:8-10].

Today some have RESOLVED and are DEVOTED to religion and religiosity and of course are getting no way with it apart from further bondages. While others are cumbersome with lots and loads of INFORMATION without experiencing the TRANSFORMATION desired of God’s promised word to them because it’s not mixed with FAITH that results to the REVELATION of the word of God. Faith is of the realms of revelation and not just a mere word or statement. That’s why a mere BELIEVE is not enough, because the devil also believes, but trembles and have no access into the redemptive BLESSEDNESS of God for the REDEEMED in Christ Jesus by faith.

“Thou BELIEVEST that there is one God; thou doest well: the DEVILS also BELIEVE, and TREMBLE” James 2:19.

There’s DANGER of UNBELIEF in our midst today – and many have not MIXED the gospel PREACHED and BEING PREACHED to them with FAITH; as such, many are not having and experiencing the PROFITABLE LIVING by the WORD as promised in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS; hence we have now a FAITHLESS generation – and their UNBELIEVING makes faith inactive and they can’t fathom God in all their doings – full of zealousness without revelation knowledge of the word that’s of FAITH. And an UNBELIEF to God’s WORD is detestable to God. And none can have a PROFITABLE LIVING by the GOSPEL in a state of unbelief and more so, not mixing the word of God by faith. [Mark 6:5-6; Hebrews 4:2; John 3:16-18; Acts 13:46, 48]. Just know that to BELIEVE is PASSIVE while FAITH is ACTIVE – meaning, FAITH is acting correspondingly on what you BELIEVE of God’s WORD in the context accordingly. Hence a mere BELIEVE is not enough to PROFITABLE LIVING with God untill FAITH is activated – acted upon in the revelation of that word in context.

“For WHATSOEVER things were WRITTEN AFORETIME were WRITTEN for our LEARNING, that we through patience and comfort of the SCRIPTURES might HAVE hope” Romans 15:4.

The Bible, the WORD is God’s instructions for our profitable living. And undermining it’s place in our lives will cause us from profitable living in spite of all our religion and religiosity.

Today, I welcome you to Month MARCH, the month of PROFITABLE LIVING in our assured promised word of God, in our rights and privileges in redemption, in Christ Jesus stead, Amen; and therefore, call you to awake to a PROFITABLE LIVING as God’s child. God had by His grace promised to give us a hope and a future. It comes by believing in His promised word without compromise and adulteration and indoctrinations to denominational creed, bylaws and traditional dogmas but by having FAITH – that’s to acting upon the word of God accordingly as written and preached in the context of any subject irrespective and without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation.

Be Blessed.

DO YOU THIRST AND HUNGER FOR GOD’S BEST

February 28, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

DO YOU THIRST AND HUNGER FOR GOD’S BEST: HIS ENABLING GRACE TO BECOME WILL ABOUND TOWARDS YOU!

“BLESSED are they which do HUNGER and THIRST after RIGHTEOUSNESS: for they shall be FILLED (SATISFIED)” Matthew 5:6 (Emphasis Mine).

Do you really thirst and hunger for the best of God in your life? There’s hope and answers. For God’s best is found in His RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. Meaning if you wants to unlock God’s best, you need to earnestly desire, that is, to thirst and hunger for His done deed of RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus for you – that will usher you to all things that pertains to LIFE and GODLINESS.

“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.

Today, you may be at the edges and turning pages of your life with the challenges about you thinking if there’s still hope in this life; am hear to say to you that that it could also be the turning day of your life into the realm of the Spirit of God for your BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. The realm of the realm of the Spirit of God is that realms of grace that opens the doors of inspiration, revelation and empowerment. The realm to enable you to THRIVE and ACHIEVE greater heights, and to take on all it takes to live, do life and accomplish all you earnestly desire towards SUCCESS and FULFILMENT.

It’s wise to take the advantage of the scriptures today to turn your SCARCITY into PLENTY, your MESS into a MESSAGE, your FAILURE into SUCCESS, your LIMITATIONS into OPPORTUNITY, your IMPOSSIBILITY into POSSIBILITIES and much more such likes – for God is ABLE to make all grace ABOUND towards you for your good.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man THIRST, let him COME unto me, and DRINK. 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall FLOW RIVERS OF LIVING WATER. 39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)” John 7:37-39.

“And God is ABLE to make ALL grace ABOUND toward you; that ye, ALWAYS having all SUFFICIENCY in ALL things, may ABOUND to EVERY good work” 2 Corinthians 9:8.

“Grace and peace be MULTIPLIED unto you through the KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath given unto us ALL THINGs that PERTAIN unto LIFE and GODLINESS, through the KNOWLEDGE of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4.
