THE NEW CREATION MINDSET

THE NEW CREATION MINDSET: THE DAILY ASSURED CONSCIOUSNESS OF BEING TRULY FREE INDEED IN CHRIST JESUS!

“It is for FREEDOM that Christ has SET US FREE. STAND FIRM, then, and DO NOT let yourselves be BURDENED again by a YOKE OF SLAVERY (BONDAGE)” Galatians 5:1 NIV.

DO YOU DAILY PERCEIVE THE SAME ASSURED CONSCIOUSNESS IN YOUR BEING THAT YOU ARE FREE INDEED IN CHRIST JESUS OR YOU STILL QUESTION WHO YOU ARE AND WHEREIN YOU DO STAND IN GRACE THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS?

“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.

What is it, that sets you up and enlightens your day, every morning? Is it based on – the house you live; the sorts of car you drive; the size of your bank account; the empire business and enterprise you’ve established; the career you are into; the size of the Church and Ministries you go to or called to be a Pastor and Pastoring; the trophies, ornaments, treasures or precious stones you’ve accumulated in life; WHAT SETS YOU UP AND BRIGHTENS UP EACH DAY, MY FRIEND EACH MORNING?

What does the quality of your life depends upon and how is it measured. How do you actually define the graciousness and gracefulness of your God given opportunity to do life and live godly on earth in humanity. Does the scripture of Luke 12:15, ever trigger your daily stand and well-being in Christ Jesus; especially in the daily PURSUIT of all that pertains to LIFE and GODLINESS as it’s written?

“And he said unto them, TAKE HEED, and BEWARE of covetousness: for a MAN’S LIFE CONSISTETH not in the ABUNDANCE of the things which he POSSESSETH” Luke 12:15.

For me, WHAT SETS ME UP AND MY DAY, is the  ASSURED assurance that I am a NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus. That I am KNOWN of God, QUALIFIED of God, PREDESTINATED by God, GLORIFIED by God, am CALLED of God, am JUSTIFIED by God and such like; and that I am in FELLOWSHIP with God to enhance my RELATIONSHIP with Him through my SAVIOUR and LORD, Jesus Christ. That’s truly indescribable, overwhelmingly – inspiring, revealing, empowering and incomprehensible. The knowing that God’s LOVES me and His presence LIVES in me and with me and for me, that makes it more PRICELESS. That and many such like too numerous to note within time and space, is what gives me HOPE, FAITH and the needed LOVE to win my day for me and all about me for others in doing life and living godly in grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“God’s loyal LOVE couldn’t have RUN OUT, his merciful love couldn’t have dried up. They’re CREATED NEW every morning. How great your faithfulness! I’m sticking with God (I say it over and over). He’s all I’ve got left.” Lamentations 3:22-24 (The Message Bible).

And for me the more, is the quality of daily well being in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus – that is, the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of being ASSURED that I am a NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus. That God LOVES me and HIS presence lives IN me and He’s WITH me and He’s FOR me – and that knowing and understanding is PRECIOUS and PRICELESS! That’s what gives me HOPE, FAITH and the needed LOVE and synergy to win my day for me and all about me for others. WHAT ABOUT YOU?

The KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING that the NEW CREATION have NO PAST in Christ Jesus anymore makes me assured of my onward and upward trajectory; and, in that my PAST no matter how terrible and unpleasant it was, it CAN’T hold back my TODAY and TOMORROW anymore; and because of what Jesus has DONE in redemption for me, to wash (erased) away my sin and to cleans me from EVERY UNRIGHTEOUSNESS by His precious and REDEEMING BLOOD.

“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 DELIGHTETH 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.

What a true freedom, for me and you to live ASSURED from the synergy of the eternal God, every morning and everyday unashamed, unafraid and unperturbed in Christ Jesus. Amen. And much more, the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING that His STEDFAST LOVE never ceases and are new every morning and everyday towards you and I – That’s GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL indeed to me.

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, ALL THINGS have BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV.

“But God FORBID that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been CRUCIFIED to me, and I to the world. 15 For in Christ Jesus neither CIRCUMCISION NOR UNCIRCUMCISION AVAILS ANYTHING, BUT A NEW CREATION” Galatians 6:14-15 NKJV.

“God’s loyal LOVE couldn’t have RUN OUT, his merciful love couldn’t have dried up. They’re CREATED NEW every morning. How great your faithfulness! I’m sticking with God (I say it over and over). He’s all I’ve got left.” Lamentations 3:22-24 (The Message Bible).

“Seeing ye have PURIFIED your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 23 BEING BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by THE WORD of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: 25 but THE WORD of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is THE WORD which by the gospel is preached unto you” 1 Peter 1:22-25.

“And he said unto them, TAKE HEED, and BEWARE of covetousness: for a MAN’S LIFE CONSISTETH not in the ABUNDANCE of the things which he POSSESSETH” Luke 12:15.

THE NEW CREATION YOU – HAVE NO PAST

By Leave a Comment

THE NEW CREATION YOU – HAVE NO PAST: YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN THE GRACE!

“But to as many as did RECEIVE and WELCOME Him, He GAVE the right [the authority, the privilege] to BECOME children of God, that is, to those who BELIEVE in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name— 13 who were born, not of blood [natural conception], nor of the will of the flesh [physical impulse], nor of the will of man [that of a natural father], but of God [that is, a divine and supernatural birth—they are born of God—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified]” John 1:12-13.

If any man be in Christ, He is a NEW CREATION the Holy Writ says – is that difficult to know and understand I don’t think so. Unfortunately, many can’t comprehend that unconditionality just like the Nicodemus of John 3:1-8; because it seems so simple and easy and they intend to make it a bit complicated for themselves to realisation, before they can BECOME as God intends His free access and pass toward Him in Christ Jesus, just as it’s written:

“Therefore, if ANYONE is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; OLD things have PASSED away; behold, ALL THINGS have BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17.

I reason and know that at baby birth, watching my lovely, gracious and graceful wife bringing forth the wonderful and fabulous children to BEING, that each of them had no history for me to reckon unto them for any reason. I see in them a brand new personality arriving to CHART and THRIVE a NEW PATH of life. I saw no PAST but a NEW DAWN in them and for them to innovate, create, initiate, manoeuvre and explore the atmosphere they love and would love to have and enjoy in grace and life in humanity and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

That’s what I PERCEIVE when I gave my life to Christ Jesus – in the knowing and understanding, that my PAST has become irrelevant and a NEW me in Christ Jesus is BORN and DAWN – for uniqueness and greatness in relation to all about me in God’s REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Upon the above scenario I am emboldened to say to you – Don’t give up or go wearisome or give in to the fear phobias of starting or completing your life intended plans, purposes and pursuits because of your PAST. For your PAST can’t hold back YOUR TODAY not TOMORROW in Christ Jesus, except you don’t  BELIEVE in your NEW DAWN and PERMIT your past to have a hold on and over you. Your believe will define your corresponding act of FAITH. And you act of FAITH will define your direction of trave in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

God’s REDEMPTION for you in Christ Jesus has CERTIFIED and JUSTIFIED the ACCESS for your full JOY and HAPPINESS that your PAST is insignificance to the DONE DEED to make you a NEW CREATION. In Christ Jesus, you are now built into a NEW FOUNDATION that erased every other foundation known and unknown that have held you back religiously, culturally, traditionally and such like. Romans 5:1-2; Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 3:10-23; Colossians 2:1-23.

I want you to know full well that your FAITH in God can go killing giants and ACHIEVING GREATNESS, even when it seems all things has come to a halt, as you keep ACTING on the WORD. For FAITH is ACTING in and on what you BELIEVE on God’s eternal WORD accordingly. Meaning, nothing can stop you from BECOMING when you keep your BELIEVING-FAITH in Christ Jesus alive.

Therefore, DARE TO DREAM AGAIN, DARE TO BELIEVE AGAIN and DARE TO BECOME AGAIN. That’s what I considered to be the spirit behind every PLANS, PURPOSES and PURSUITS with an achiever mindset to BECOME in Christ Jesus stead. Amen – Romans 4:16-25.

Finally, Jesus said, “. . . ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU” (Matthew 9:29) – that means, by your FAITH in Him through His WORD, BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE. Romans 10:8-13.

“. . . As ye have therefore RECEIVED Christ Jesus the Lord, SO WALK YE IN HIM: 7 rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 BEWARE LEST ANY MAN SPOIL YOU THROUGH PHILOSOPHY AND VAIN DECEIT, AFTER THE TRADITION OF MEN, AFTER THE RUDIMENTS OF THE WORLD, AND NOT AFTER CHRIST. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power . . .” Colossians 2:1-23.

“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).

THE PROMISES OF GOD – OUR DAILY LOADED BENEFITS

By Leave a Comment

THE PROMISES OF GOD – OUR DAILY LOADED BENEFITS: IT’S TO ENHANCE AND AUTHENTICATE OUR REDEMPTION!

“Let us HOLD FAST the profession of our faith without wavering; FOR HE IS FAITHFUL THAT PROMISED” Hebrews 10:23.

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

Our God does not only want to meet up with our Daily Bread needs but He wants also to shower us with His ADD-ON BONUS, the DAILY LOADED BENEFITS – embedded in our RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in Christ Jesus stead. Imagine having BONUS, an ADD-ON to your your normal daily earnings; that’s what it means to have BENEFITS to the NORMS daily BREAD that is generalised to ALL when you pray.

Our God will daily loads us with His benefits in REDEMPTION in order to authenticate our salvation in Him. That’s why you must not give up or give in to any limiting circumstances until you begin to be actualised God’s benefiting WILL, in your DAILY life.

Herein are simple few major reasons though not limited why Father God in Christ Jesus by the Holy Spirit in His WORD will authenticate His Daily Benefits:

* That you have in all sufficiency & abundance for yourself – wanting nothing – thereby give Him thanks. Philippians 4:17, 19; Ephesians 1:3; 2 Corinthians 8:9 (NIV/LB); John 10:10; 3 John 2.

* That the Gospel might advance & the enemy and cohorts kept at bay without limitations. Luke 8:1-3; Zechariah 1:17; Haggai 2:6-9.

* That you have plenty left over to give to others in great needs without murmuring withholding and complaining. Galatians 6:1-9; Hebrews 6:9-12. Luke 6:38.

* To make you, the saints in Christ Jesus, to abide in the FAITH – for poverty takes people away from the FAITH. And in seeking answers fall prey of ungodly, evil and dubious ways to prosper and achieve the desired greatness. Psalms 23:6; John 15:4-8; Psalms 112:1-3.

* To cleanse the Church of evil. POVERTY itself and POVERTY mentality leads to stealing, robbery, bribery and such likes. Proverbs 30:7-9; Psalms 112:3; Psalms 89:20-29, 34.

* To keep and establish the righteous in Dominion. Ecclesiastes 9:13-18; Ecclesiastes 7:12.

* To establish and authenticate His covenant. Deuteronomy 8:18; Psalms 89:34; Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29; Jeremiah 33:20-21, 25-26; James 1:17.

The ADD-ON BONUS of God it’s more gracious and graceful to live your life not just from the DAILY BREAD but from the DAILY LOADED BENEFITS; that’s the essence of knowing your RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES In REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Blessed be the Lord, who DAILY loadeth us with BENEFITS, even the God of our SALVATION (REDEMPTION). Selah” Psalms 68:19 (Emphasis Mine).

“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy WILL be DONE in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us THIS DAY our DAILY BREAD . . .” Matthew 6:9-15.

“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.

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have OBTAINED LIKE PRECIOUS FAITH with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 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 1:1-4.

God plays no gimmicks as men neither with men. And of two immutability of His counsel – in order to authenticate with assurances to His PROMISES, He has taken an oath in His NAME and His WORD; that’s to say – He can’t and won’t lie, and can’t begin one with you now or ever. His PROMISES to us are EVER SURE And STEADFAST. Hebrews 6:16-20; Numbers 23:19, 23.

In order to authenticate that God is faithful, true and ever sure, He has GIVEN us the Holy Spirit as a SEALED of ownership which also is His PLEDGED to GUARANTEE as DOWN payment and SECURITY DEPOSIT to His promises. 2 Corinthians 1:20-21.

When you are ASSURED of this INSURED act of God, you need not allow worry and anxiety to rule and own your day. It’s your moment to STAND upright, STEP on, HEAD up and straight, SHOULDER high and HEELS high to win your day. Philippians 1:6; 1 John 5:13-15.

“For men verily SWEAR by THE GREATER: and an OATH FOR CONFIRMATION is to them an END of all strife. 17 Wherein God, WILLING MORE ABUNDANTLY to shew unto the HEIRS OF PROMISE THE IMMUTABILITY OF HIS COUNSEL, CONFIRMED IT BY AN OATH: 18 that by TWO IMMUTABLE THINGS, in which it was IMPOSSIBLE for God to LIE, we might have a STRONG CONSOLATION, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the HOPE set before us: 19 which HOPE we have as AN ANCHOR of the soul, both SURE and STEDFAST, and which entereth into that within the veil; 20 whither the forerunner is for us ENTERED, even Jesus, MADE an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec” Hebrews 6:16-20.

“For all the PROMISES of God in Him are YES, and in Him AMEN, to the glory of God through us.  21 Now He who ESTABLISHES US with you in Christ and has ANOINTED US is God,  22 who also has SEALED US and GIVEN US the Spirit in our hearts as a GUARANTEE”  2 Corinthians 1:20-22.

“But YOU HAVE AN ANOINTING from the Holy One, and you know all things . . . 27 But the ANOINTING which you HAVE RECEIVED from Him ABIDES in you, and you do not need that anyone TEACH you; but as the SAME ANOINTING TEACHES you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has TAUGHT you, you will ABIDE in Him”  1 John 2:20, 27.

“Let us hold fast the PROFESSION (CONFESSION) of our hope without WAVERING, for He who promised is FAITHFUL” Hebrews 10:23.

DON’T BE A LAZYBUTT IN THE KINGDOM

DON’T BE A LAZYBUTT IN THE KINGDOM: AWAKE TO READING – MAKE A DIFFERENCE – BE FREE FROM IGNORANCE AND THE FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN!

Ignorance is not just destructive, but enslaves one, keeps one in CAPTIVITY and BONDAGE of all sorts; it’s WORST than a CANCEROUS disease, it short circuits ones present and future greatness, and makes one to own up and give up ones WILL and WORTH unknowingly, thereby DESTROYING ones PURPOSE in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

You can’t afford in 21st Century as the REDEEMED in Christ Jesus, to live less than what REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus has offered you and us all; to make us Triumphant, Victorious, More Than Conquerors and an Overcomer of this present world through FAITH until Christ Jesus earnest return; and to take us and deliver us from the dark and darkness of limitations and failures into the indescribable and incomprehensible gracious and graceful bosom of His good and goodness in doing life and godly living. Hence, you need to stop been in a hurry to escape from reality of LIFE and GODLY LIVING, because of your been LAZYBUTT and in LOUSINESS as if nothing matters. Know today SOMETHING matters in life my dear – and it’s about LIFE and GODLY LIVING. You are BORN AGAIN to be FULFILL in life meaningfully and purposefully in Christ Jesus stead.

The born of God in Christ Jesus stead is inexcusable in matters of playing IGNORANCE – (Acts 17:30-31). And you ARE only MISTAKEN and working in ERRORS  because of  IGNORANCE of the TRUTH – For the TRUTH always SETS one FREE in Christ Jesus stead (Matthew 22:29; John 8:32). Know for sure that it’s your principle failure in responsibility and accountability, when you fail through ignorance. Someone may be responsible for your falling in the ditch, you can’t live to keep blaming such somebody or person’s for you remaining and keeping yourself in the ditch. You are responsible and accountable for the decision you make to either RISE UP to be ABOVE ONLY, or to STAY BACKWARDS, or to STAND SAME in circus and STILL, then mourning, complaining, excusing, accusing and such like. You don’t need to stay vulnerable and downcast to fulfil sentimental position and to embrace pity party to make have a temporary happiness. You need to take a stand in grace to enable you attain the enduring, onward and upward trajectory happiness and fulfilment, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

HENCE I SAY:

“INFORMED LEADERS ARE READERS AND WORLD CHANGERS. UNTIL YOU READ TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU READ, YOU ARE STILL IGNORANT. THEREFORE READ, KNOW AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU LEAD AND TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE” – Chukie MORSI Snr (@ Chukie MORSI Books Extract).

It’s time to wake up, rise up like an edifice from your LAZYBUTT and give yourself to READING that will emancipate, rekindle, refresh, synergise and geared you to INNOVATE, CREATE, EXPLORE, INITIATE and MANOEUVRE into your unimaginable, better and best days, while making the difference and fulfilling PURPOSE, in the now of God for you and those you care about in life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

YOU ARE THE BEST OF GOD FOR YOU, YOUR FAMILY, YOUR STREET, YOUR COMMUNITY, YOUR NATION AND YOUR WORLD. DON’T FAIL THROUGH IGNORANCE – IT’S WORST THAN A CANCEROUS DISEASE.

I PRAY YOU UNDERSTAND MY PASSION FOR YOU TO RISE AND BEGIN AGAIN. THERE’S A MIRACLE AWAITING YOU AGAIN. GIVE YOURSELF TO READING. Don’t give up. Don’t give in. Don’t faint. Don’t go weary, Don’t be anxious. Knowledge delivers, emancipates and rewards in life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE

By Leave a Comment

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE: FOR IN GOD IN GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS – AGE DOESN’T LIMIT ANY IN FRUITFULNESS!

God gives the enabling grace – anointing – to make us FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in Him. And it is an indication of Him being our ROCK and no UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in all His ways. Psalms 92:12-15; 2 Corinthians 5:21.

The act of FLOURISHING and FRUITFULNESS is not limited to few. It’s tangible, available, reachable and liveable to all, even at OLD age – FOR THERE’S NO LIMITATIONS IN GRACE – Galatians 3:26-29; Psalms 92:12-15. Hence, there’s no room to make excuse, complain, blame and to assume there’s someone responsible and accountable for your UNPRODUCTIVE and UNFRUITFUL state in life, when and while all signs and indications of blossoming and flourishing are there. If there’s anything to blame, it’s ones IGNORANCE to THINK that a mere blossoming and flourishing is sufficient without FRUITFULNESS. Unfortunately, God winked at ignorance. Acts 17:30-31.

Think about this – Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, while in humanity have to rebuke with a woe to the PHARISEES and SCRIBES, who thinks that a mere paying of their TITHE is sufficient to ACCESS God’s favour and to LEGISLATE spirituality, when they overlook the essence of  FRUITFULNESS and the fruitful character of JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITHFULNESS – Matthew 23:23. THINK about it – to BLOSSOM and FLOURISH but no FRUIT does not WIN God’s favour.

Therefore, get yourself PLANTED in the house of the Lord, in order to FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Don’t be a POTTED plant that is not ROOTED in a place and taken about places, but rather be a PLANTED plant that is ROOTED in the house of the Lord, in order to experience not just the segment of flourishing and blossoming as a Palm tree and a cedar in labor, but as a FRUITFUL one in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Remember that Christ Jesus CURSED a fig tree that was BLOSSOMING and FLOURISHING without FRUIT and FRUITFULNESS. Mark 11:11-14.

I PRAY that you will be ROOTED in your PLANTED place such that you will BLOSSOM and FLOURISH in Grace, and become fruitful in all that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING – 2 Peter 1:2-4.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was HUNGRY: 13 and seeing a FIG TREE AFAR OFF HAVING LEAVES, HE CAME, IF HAPLY HE MIGHT FIND ANY THING THEREON: AND WHEN HE CAME TO IT, HE FOUND NOTHING BUT LEAVES; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, NO MAN EAT FRUIT of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it” Mark 11:11-14.

“But my HORN [my emblem of strength and power] You have EXALTED like that of a wild ox; I am ANOINTED with FRESH OIL [for Your service]. 11 My eye has looked on my foes; My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me. 12  The righteous will FLOURISH like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful]; They will GROW like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable]. 13 Planted in the house of the Lord, They will FLOURISH in the courts of our God. 14  [Growing in grace] they will still THRIVE and bear FRUIT and PROSPER in old age; They will FLOURISH and be vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment]; 15 [They are living memorials] to declare that the Lord is upright and faithful [to His promises]; He is my ROCK, and THERE IS NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in Him” Psalms 92:10-15 Amplified

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] SCRIBES and PHARISEES, hypocrites! For you give a TENTH (tithe) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on minor matters], and have NEGLECTED the weightier [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: JUSTICE and MERCY and FAITHFULNESS; but these are the [primary] things you OUGHT to have done without NEGLECTING the others” Matthew 23:23 Amplified.

“Let not then your good be evil spoken of: 17 for the kingdom of God is not MEAT (FOOD) and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:16-18.

THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD: ENABLED BY FAITH TO RELIEVED US FROM FEAR PHOBIAS!

There’s a uniqueness about your life that you need to harness to create the atmosphere you love to see and enjoy and to share with all about you, but it’s not coming into reality because the spirit of FEAR PHOBIAS have taken over you to rule and reign over the FAITH that empowers you to succeed and prosper in God in Christ Jesus stead.

Know full well and for sure, that the BLESSEDNESS of God in you, it’s beautiful, adorable, precious, priceless, memorable, gracious and such like in Christ Jesus. Amen. You can only enhance and enact it’s presence by FAITH and not by FEAR. You can HARNESS it’s presence to enable you innovate, create, initiate and explore the fullness of God in you by FAITH and not by FEAR. Hence we are enjoined by the scripture to do life and godly living through walking by FAITH and not walking by SIGHT – senses (by what we – see, smell, taste, touch/feel and hear). For in the realm of sight (senses), there the spirit of FEAR PHOBIAS operates and manifest – thereby administering the characteristics and it’s effects.

“For we WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT [living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises]” 2 Corinthians 5:7 Amplified.

And by FAITH we live in triumph and victory over the world sense of governance in doing life and godly living in our dealing with matters on EARTH. FAITH is the heavenly kingdom de facto currency to trade in exchange of the heavenly to bring about the earthly affairs into reality. And the BLESSEDNESS of God, that is the potent enabling, only in manifestations and operations by faith as it’s written:

“For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

The great enemy of FAITH is FEAR. Fear is the enemy and cohorts policing officer to ridicule, torment,  embarrass, frighten, jeopardise, limit and such like, on any person set goals – purpose and plan. Fear intimidates, makes timidity, enslaves boldness and robs one of enhancing the GOOD and GOODNESS within that God in Christ Jesus has embedded in us as written:

“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.

Young Timothy was gifted and ENDOWED with The BLESSEDNESS of God, but FEAR of the unknown and in taking a bold step, stopped him and made him inactive, timid and non functional  in the GRACE upon and within him. It took Apostle Paul to speak into him with reminder, awaken him and bring him to the reality of who he’s and what God has ENDOWED him. Reminding him to know, that what God has ENDOWED him with, he should not allow the spirit of FEAR to grip him and rob him of it. Thus indicating that FEAR is a spirit, meaning has a characteristics that must be overcome with by FAITH characteristics as it’s written:

“That is why I REMIND you to fan into flame the GRACIOUS GIFT of God, [that inner fire—the special ENDOWMENT] which is in you through the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 7 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 1:6-7.

And by working in perfect – wholesome, complete and mature genuine LOVE of God in Christ Jesus stead, in respect to God’s BLESSEDNESS in context, that’s what cast out – cast off, put off and sentence FEAR out of the vicinity. Simply because FAITH works by LOVE. The LOVE that operating and administering in the REDEMPTION rights and privileges of – THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD; this LOVE that works by FAITH, it’s without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) to any and irrespective, in Christ Jesus.

“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.

“For in Jesus Christ neither CIRCUMCISION availeth anything, nor UNCIRCUMCISION; but FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE” Galatians 5:6.

“Let LOVE be without DISSIMULATION (hypocrisy). Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good” Romans 12:9.

And there are over 365 Scriptures of “FEAR NOT” available to and for us in the holy writ, to enable us not to allow FEAR to rob us of living in TRIUMPH and VICTORY, being an OVERCOMER and a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. For Christ Jesus took our nature in humanity, thereby used the victory to help us subdued fear and the architect of fear – Satan and his cohorts; and by that we might and can serve God today, in holiness and righteousness without FEAR, all the days of our life in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Therefore, wake up from your slumbering state and the intimidating SPIRIT OF FEAR PHOBIAS to the empowering by FAITH, that you may be able to innovate, create, initiate and explore that which God has given us and set out in His plan, purpose and pursuit for you. And you can now arise to attend to the things that overtime would have made you have a meaningless and fulfilling life and godly living, in everyway, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

ACT ON FAITH TODAY AND NOT TOMORROW – THIS WILL ENHANCE THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD IN YOU – AND YOU WILL BE RELIEVED OF THE FEAR PHOBIAS IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“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.

“That is why I REMIND you to fan into flame the GRACIOUS GIFT of God, [that inner fire—the special ENDOWMENT] which is in you through the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 7 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 1:6-7.

SOME SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT ON – FRUITFULNESS AND MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT

By Leave a Comment

SOME SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT ON – FRUITFULNESS AND MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT: SOWING The SEED OF RIGHTEOUSNESS – TO EFFECT THE PEACEABLE FRUIT(S) OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN YOU!

God wants you to be FRUITFUL in every way in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. His FRUIT(S) of RIGHTEOUSNESS are consequence of SOWING the SEED of RIGHTEOUSNESS. For like begat likes, just as a Lion don’t give birth to a Goat and a Mango fruit does not reproduce a Cashew fruit – Genesis 1:11-12; Matthew 12:33-36; Luke 6:43-45 . Our character fruit of righteousness will always reproduce after its kind as we continuously sow the character seed of righteousness in every way of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead.

And the WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNES which is PEACE toward God and humanity, has a corresponding EFFECT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, even as it’s written:

“And the WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNESS shall be PEACE; and the EFFECT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS QUIETNESS and ASSURANCE for ever” Isaiah 32:17.

As a results of the WORK and EFFECT of RIGHTEOUSNESS in FRUITFULNESS, herein are SOME SCRIPTURAL WRIT PRINCIPLES that are worth pondering and noting:

1*. IT IS ONLY THE GOD OF ALL GRACE THAT’S ABLE TO INCREASE YOUR FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AS YOU SOW YOUR SEED:

“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: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 NOW HE THAT MINISTERETH SEED TO THE SOWER BOTH MINISTER BREAD FOR YOUR FOOD, AND MULTIPLY YOUR SEED SOWN, AND INCREASE THE FRUITS OF YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS;) 11 being enriched in everything to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God” 2 Corinthians 9:8-11.

2*. THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS IN ALL GOODNESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH:

“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.

3*. SOWING THE PEACE OF THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WORTH A LIVING:

“But the WISDOM that is from ABOVE (HEAVENLY) is first PURE, then PEACEABLE, GENTLE, and EASY to be intreated, full of MERCY and GOOD FRUITS, without PARTIALITY, and without HYPOCRISY. 18 And THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is SOWN in peace of them that make peace” James 3:17-18.

4*. ENSURING GODLY CHASTENING THAT YIELDS THE PEACEABLE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

“. . .  11 Now no CHASTENING for the PRESENT seemeth to be joyous, but grievous (severe, painful): nevertheless afterward it YIELDETH THE PEACEABLE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS unto them which are exercised thereby” Hebrews 12:1-11 Emphasis Mine.

  1. BEING FILLED WITH THE FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS MAKES YOU:

“And this I pray, that your LOVE may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; 10 that ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ; 11 BEING FILLED WITH THE FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God” Philippians 1:9-11.

  1. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS MUCH MORE THAN FOOD AND DRINK – IT’S ABOUT RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE AND JOY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT:

“Let not then your GOOD BE EVIL SPOKEN OF: 17 for the kingdom of God is not MEAT (FOOD) and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that IN THESE THINGS SERVETH Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:16-18 Emphasis Mine.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, THE HERB YIELDING SEED, AND THE FRUIT TREE YIELDING FRUIT AFTER HIS KIND, WHOSE SEED IS IN ITSELF, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good” Genesis 1:11-12.

“Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. 34 O generation of vipers, HOW CAN YE, BEING EVIL, SPEAK GOOD THINGS? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. 35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. 36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment” Matthew 12:33-36.

“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.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

By Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: KNOWING And UNDERSTANDING The ESSENCE!

Am yet to found one Believer in Christ who who does not wants to actualize and see that everything about their Faith in Christ Jesus, is TANGIBLE, REACHABLE and LIVEABLE. Unfortunately not all are experiencing the FULLNESS of Christ Jesus stead in their day to day living, as expected IN THE GRACE wherein we STAND as in the Holy Writ.

“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.

In ESSENCE, actualizing our REDEMPTION REALITY in Christ Jesus, can only be made possible through firstly – KNOWLEDGE – that is, by the ACKNOWLEDGING; and secondly it’s with the UNDERSTANDING of one’s FAITH in Christ Jesus – being COMMUNICATED to matters of Life and Godly Living as it’s written in the Holy Writ:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).

And until you can ACTUALISE the ESSENCE of REDEMPTION of Christ Jesus in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ Jesus will always be a – struggle, strange, burdensome, irksome and taskmaster like. It’s for this lack of the knowledge and understanding of THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY that there are many MERE – ‘AMEN’, HALLELUJAH’ ‘I RECEIVE’ and ‘BLESS ME’ – Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ. This OUGHT not to be so in Christ Jesus and for all that Christ Jesus is to us in God.

I am emboldened to say that you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a personal knowledge and understanding, of THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY in your redemption in Christ Jesus, of all that God has – DONE IN you, DONE FOR you, DONE WITH you and He’s DOING THROUGH you, supposedly and indeed.

Here are few ESSENCE to enable you see a gracious reasons to earnestly crave and seek for THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY through ACKNOWLEDGING and UNDERSTANDING of all that God deed for you in Christ Jesus; this is to help you APPROPRIATE and ENACT with ease your REDEMPTION into reality and as a POSSESSION. It is the KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING:

** That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

** That knowledge will deliver from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29

** That your dominion in life is a product of your knowledge – Daniel 11:32.

** That a man’s value for knowledge determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.

** That knowledge is power, freedom and dominion, while religion is imprisonment and bondage – Luke 11:52.

** That the grace that determines our status is a function of knowledge – 2 Peter 1:2.

** That when you run after knowledge, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.

** That People who hate knowledge can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

** That age is not equal to knowledge and should not be taken for knowledge – Job. 32:7-9.

** That if your thoughts are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.

** That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.

** That whatever you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.

** That studying for knowledge is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.

** That the only authentic proof of knowledge is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.

** That when you don’t grow in the spirit of knowledge, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.

** That those who seek to know men, don’t know God; when you seek to know God, people will seek to know you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.

** That your knowledge of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.

** And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured knowledge – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

These writ above though not limited, indicates the essence of KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the Holy in order to access the FULNESS of Him. Hence I say, Don’t SETTLE and BECOME a believer in Christ Jesus, who is envelope just with – ‘BLESS ME’, ‘HALLELUJAH’, ‘I RECEIVE’,  ‘AMEN’ and such like – seek after knowing and understanding the Holy one for your ESSENCE and FULNESS.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS” Obadiah 1:17.

“The Lord our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: 7 turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. 8 Behold, I have set the land before you: GO in and POSSESS the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them” Deuteronomy 1:6-8.

“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 . . . 13 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 . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by FAITH in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither JEW NOR GREEK, there is neither BOND NOR FREE, there is neither MALE NOR FEMALE: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a GREAT NATION, and I will BLESS thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: AND IN THEE SHALL ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3.
