THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD: IT’S A GIVEN AND ENTRUSTED ENABLING OF GRACE – MADE AVAILABLE TO ENRICH YOU IN CHRIST JESUS’ STEAD!

“THE BLESSING of the Lord BRINGS [true] RICHES, and He ADDS NO SORROW TO IT [for it comes as a BLESSING from God]” Proverbs 10:22 Amplified.

” . . . 3 BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED US with every spiritual BLESSING in the heavenly PLACES in Christ . . .” Ephesians 1:1-12 NKJV.

It’s a high time for you to HARNESS in grace by faith, your FAITH walk with God in Christ Jesus stead, in order to live unhindered in the ABOVE ONLY realms of doing life and living godly. For the BLESSEDNESS of God is a GIVEN and is ENTRUSTED to all that are born of God in Christ Jesus stead; and it’s AVAILABLE to all to to enact and authenticate with no personal or group limitations; and it’s without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) as in our redemption deeds of rights and privileges in the Kingdom.

“Opening his mouth, Peter said: “Most certainly I understand now that God is NOT one to SHOW partiality [to people as though Gentiles were excluded from God’s BLESSING], 35 but in EVERY NATION the person who fears God and does what is right [by seeking Him] is ACCEPTABLE and WELCOMED by Him” Acts 10:34-35 Amplified.

And our promiser and provider is faithful, trustworthy and committed to ensure your rights and privileges in Him are not denied by any factors, be it – human placement, geographical location, tongue, tribes and gender and such like. For His BLESSEDNESS is unto all who calls upon His name.

“FAITHFUL and absolutely TRUSTWORTHY is He who is CALLING you [to Himself for your salvation], and He will DO it [He will FULFILL His call by making you holy, guarding you, watching over you, and protecting you as His own]” 1 Thessalonians 5:24 Amplified.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED US to God by thy blood out of every KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE US unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

“Then Peter said unto them, REPENT, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall RECEIVE the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the PROMISE is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, EVEN AS MANY AS the Lord our God shall CALL” Acts 2:38-39.

And the BLESSEDNESS of God is given and entrusted to all, and it’s available to you today for an onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus stead. And it’s for the following reasons but not limited for you to enact and authenticate in grace by faith. Herein are the reasons for the given and entrusted – and available BLESSEDNESS of God:

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

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

** That you have plenty enough and leftovers 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 and sway people away from the FAITH. Especially in their seeking answers to basic necessities of life and more, they thereby fall prey of ungodly, evil and dubious ways to prosper and achieve the desired needs and greatness. Psalms 23:6; John 15:4-8; Psalms 112:1-3.

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

** To keep and ESTABLISH the righteous in DOMINION – as overcomers, victorious, triumphant and more than a conquerors in Christ Jesus stead. Ecclesiastes 9:13-18; Ecclesiastes 7:12.

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

These above and many as may be revealed to you by the Holy Spirit within, indicates the graciousness and gracefulness of our God in Christ Jesus to see you do life and live godly in righteousness, in the kingdom, on this side of the heavenly in our earthly temporary domain. The whole concept is the essence of you knowing and understanding your RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES In REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Now that you know that the BLESSEDNESS of God is a GIVEN and ENTRUSTED, and also AVAILABLE for you in grace, what manner of person OUGHT you to become in your path of doing life and to live godly in Christ Jesus stead; this is in order to help you to be fulfilled meaningfully the purposefully for the while you are ENDOWED and ENTRUSTED with God’s BLESSEDNESS.  SELAH – PAUSE and THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“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.

“. . . 3 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; 8 wherein he hath ABOUNDED TOWARD US in all wisdom and prudence; 9 having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: 10 that in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: 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: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ” Ephesians 1:1-12.

“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.

“SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES; for in them ye think ye have ETERNAL LIFE: and they are they which testify of me” John 5:39.

THE CHARISMATIC GIFTS

By Leave a Comment

THE CHARISMATIC GIFTS: THESE GIFTS ARE GIVEN TO EDIFY [BUILD UP,  MATURE, COMPLETE AND PROFIT] ALL IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CALLINGS AND SKILLS/TALENTS [ABILITY]!

“There are DIVERSITIES OF GIFTS, but the same Spirit. 5 There are DIFFERENCES OF MINISTRIES, but the same Lord. 6 And there are DIVERSITIES OF ACTIVITIES, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the MANIFESTATION of the Spirit is GIVEN TO EACH ONE FOR THE PROFIT OF ALL” 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 NKJV.

About a week ago, I went out to get a replacement pressing Iron for the house while on my way to doing the set day schedule and activities. My natural instinct was to go to the same shopping centre where we bought the last one, knowing it was good and had lasted in use for a while. And as I drove into the parking lot of the shopping mall, I heard a voice within me as always, the Holy Spirit sayings that I should check the MOBILE APP of another shop in another shopping centre location which wasn’t an intended plan by me. So I did check the MOBILE APP as I was instructed, to see the kind of the pressing Iron I intend to buy as I have heard. And when I have done so, I went into the shopping mall that I have just parked, while the MOBILE APP was still active on my phone to see reasons and instructions. To my awesome surprise, as saying, lo and behold, the exact intending pressing Iron was there but there was a problem – 10% difference in the prices and the warranty terms of difference in comparison to the shop that I was instructed to check by the Holy Spirit while at the parking lot. As prudence is the scriptural essence, I left to the shopping mall of the MOBILE APP as I was informed and instructed of the Holy Spirit while at the parking lot. I found PEACE at such obedience and SAVINGS in cost of buying and ASSURANCE of the needed warranty to my purchase. The essence of the CHARISMATIC GIFTS in us is at WORK within me to lead and guide as in our REDEMPTION bill of rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. The essence is just about living life and OBEYING THE INSTRUCTIONS of the Holy Spirit as given through the CHARISMATIC GIFTS within you of Him as written in the Holy Writ of 1 John 2:20, 27.

“But ye have an UNCTION from the Holy One, and ye know all things . . . 27 But the ANOINTING which ye have RECEIVED of him ABIDETH in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the SAME ANOINTING TEACHETH you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him” 1 John 2:20, 27

Why is the said storylines above of the pressing Iron? Does it matter? Won’t common sense should have told me obviously about that or what I should have done that check earlier and anyway before leaving home? Whatever you leaned toward, what’s important in the whole sum, is that, there’s an answer in ESSENCE to any of our situation and circumstances; it also thus indicate, that, no matter the circumstances and situations we found ourselves, knowingly and unknowingly, that, the ever PRESENCE of the CHARISMATIC GIFTS of the Holy Spirit within us does WORKS; and it’s PRESENCE in our Christian life, is to help build up, complete and mature our triune being in everyway and everywhere, while we make daily decisions in our callings, skills/talents (ability), in fulfilling purpose, while doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

When  you get BORN AGAIN (giving your whole being to believe in God through the redemption act of Christ Jesus as your Saviour and Lord) and be BAPTISED with the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit in essence comes along with His CHARISMATIC GIFTS to dwell in you the believing one, to help build you up, complete you and mature your well-being in humanity, in respect of doing live and living godly through any and all of these but not limited:

(A). ***Your Spiritual CALLINGS (Ministerial/Others) – Romans 8:28-30, 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 12:3-8; 1 Corinthians 12:27-30; Ephesians 4:11. Numbers 11:24-30; 1 John 2:20, 27.

(B). ***Your Human SKILLS/TALENTS (ABILITY) – Daniel 1:17; Ecclesiastes 9:11; 2 Chronicles 34:12; 2 Chronicles 2:7-8; Nehemiah 5:8; Proverbs 18:15-16; 1 John 2:20, 27.

Just for clarification, each and everyone of the believing ones in Christ Jesus is given the charismatic gifts by THE MEASURE of God’s grace and not by A MEASURE, according to the given callings and skills/talent (ability) that we are respectively involved in our doing life and godliness. Romans 12:3; Ephesians 4:7; 1 John 2:20, 27. It thus means you have all it takes within you by the Holy Spirit to do life and live godly unlimitedly, except you chose to frustrate such endowed grace that’s given to you to be built up and mature in humanity as some who misuses their opportunities for righteous cause –  Galatians 2:21; Romans 1:18.

“I do not FRUSTRATE (SET ASIDE) the GRACE of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” Galatians 2:21 Emphasis Mine.

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who SUPPRESS the TRUTH in unrighteousness” Romans 1:18 NKJV

Now, know that when Christ Jesus led CAPTIVITY CAPTIVE in His ascending to the heavenly, in the CAUSE of our REDEMPTION, He RECEIVE gifts and GAVE these gifts to us (as explained in some of my past post). Psalms 68:18; Ephesians 4:8-10; Revelation 12:9-12. One aspect of the GIFT is the the gift of the comforter, teacher, helper and more – the blessed Holy Spirit – Ephesians 1 :11-14; John 14:15-17, 26; Luke 24:49; Joel 2:28-32; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:1-20; Acts 10:44-48; Acts 19:1-7; Romans 8:26-27. And the Holy Spirit comes with the CHARISMATIC GIFTS which could be called SPIRITUAL GIFTS. I used the CHARISMATIC GIFTS to differentiate because everything God gave us in Christ Jesus comes  spiritual, which by our act of FAITH in obedience to such gifts, are then made  physical – tangible, touchable and reachable. Ephesians 1:3, 20; Ephesians 2:6; Proverbs 10:22.

CHARISMA could be defined as the ability or synergy within that gives one the enabling to attract, charm, booster and influence others towards a given driven CAUSE – Plan, Purpose and Pursuit. CHARISMA is often said to be a mysterious ineffable quality, you either have it or don’t have it, but however everyone needs it to do life in their CALLINGS and Talent to be fulfilled in God. For the term charisma (/kəˈrɪzmə/; pl. charismata, adj. charismatic) has two senses: COMPELLING ATTRACTIVENESS or charm that can inspire devotion in others; also, a DIVINELY CONFERRED power or talent to make you be what you wants to be in LIFE and GODLINESS. And all these by the Holy Spirit through the WORD makes one to be fulfilled meaningfully in Christ Jesus stead.

The Holy Spirit is the personality that ENABLE God’s GRACE to activate a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER. Therefore, to ensure a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER in life and godliness, you need to be BUILT UP by the Holy Spirit in the WORD of God as it’s written:

“But you, beloved, BUILD yourselves UP on [the foundation of] your most holy faith [continually progress, rise like an EDIFICE higher and higher], pray in the Holy Spirit, 21 and keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously and looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ [which will bring you] to eternal life” Jude 1:20-21 (Amplified).

And for the BELIEVER’S in Christ, our CHARISMATIC or CHARISMA life which is as a results of SPIRITUAL GIFTS  (endowment) cum TALENTS are sustained in grace by the SPIRITUAL FRUIT (Character) of the Holy Spirit. It must be noted that the sustainability of your CHARISMA or CHARISMATIC life, is by the CHARACTER you exhibit in and through it. Otherwise it becomes a CARICATURE in every respect of manifestation and operations. These spiritual fruit that formulate ones character to uphold integrity and etiquette of one’s charisma or charismatic gifts and acts are but not limited as in these Scriptures: Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Peter 1:5-8; Philippians 4:8.

There are nine (9) major of these charismatic gifts that are given to us to be BUILT UP and MATURED to HELP us to live in the  realm of being ABOVE ONLY, meaning, from the ordinary common realm in cause of doing life and living godly. So the believing ones have no excuse of living a limited life by any measure or be subjected or controlled or dominated by any as a helpless one. Each is to use the charismatic gifts to PROFIT and EDIFY – BUILD UP – and MATURE each order in Christ Jesus and not the other way round as we see some today: ROBBING, CONTROLLING, SUBJECTING, DOMINEERING OTHERS, who are less or and in a vulnerable state by their CHARISMATIC GIFTS; while they are OTHERS who used theirs to create SCHISM – DIVISION, CONTENTION, ENVY, STRIFE and such like, in the local and collective BODY MINISTRY of Christ Jesus – Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Corinthians 1:10-17; 1 Corinthians 14:12, 26, 33; 1 Corinthians 12:12-27. And for such that cause schisms, contentions, disorders and such like,  you need keep away and at bay, as Apostle Paul warns too – Romans 16:17-18; Timothy 1:18-20; 1 Corinthians 11:17-19; 1 Corinthians 3:2-9; 1 Corinthians 1:10-17.

However, these NINE (9) CHARISMATIC GIFTS can be classified in this context of 1 Corinthians 12:9-11 in this principle:

  1. The REVELATION Gifts – The gifts that REVEALS things: THE WORD OF WISDOM; THE WORD OF KNOWLEDGE; THE DISCERNING OF SPIRITS.
  2. The POWER Gifts – The gifts that DOES things: THE GIFT OF FAITH; THE WORKING OF MIRACLES; THE GIFTS OF HEALINGS.
  3. The INSPIRATIONAL Gifts – The gifts that INSPIRE things: THE GIFT OF PROPHECY, THE INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES; THE DIVERSE (DIFFERENT) KINDS OF TONGUES.

Each of the above gifts are given to everyone severally by the Holy Spirit as one earnestly desire their PRESENCE in one’s work and walk with God in Christ Jesus stead. Whether is about your ministerial calling and or to others as business and entrepreneurship, family, marital and friendship relationship, career pursuit, leadership and governance at any level, matters of creativity, innovation, exploring and such like, the CHARISMATIC GIFTS are here for your well-being to grow, thrive and to be fulfilled meaningfully. 1 Corinthians 12: 1; 1 Corinthians 14:12, 39-40.

I pray that you find the reason not to depend on yourself, but on the Holy Spirit of promise, that He might give you the needed CHARISMATIC GIFTS, in order to fulfill PURPOSE, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING, in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast RECEIVED GIFTS FOR MEN; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them” Psalms 68:18.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED US to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE US unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth . . . 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was SLAIN TO RECEIVE power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing” Revelation 5:9-12.

“But unto EVERY ONE OF US IS GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the gift of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and GAVE GIFTS UNTO MEN. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)” Ephesians 4:7-10.

“As for these four children, God GAVE them knowledge and SKILL in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams” Daniel 1:17.

“For I say, through THE GRACE GIVEN unto me, to EVERY MAN that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man THE MEASURE of faith” Romans 12:3.

“Now concerning SPIRITUAL GIFTS, brethren, I do not want you to be IGNORANT: 2 You know that you were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, however you were led. 3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. 4 There are DIVERSITIES OF GIFTS, but the same Spirit. 5 There are DIFFERENCES OF MINISTRIES, but the same Lord. 6 And there are DIVERSITIES OF ACTIVITIES, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is GIVEN to each one FOR THE PROFIT OF ALL: 8 for to one is given THE WORD OF WISDOM through the Spirit, to another THE WORD OF KNOWLEDGE through the same Spirit, 9 to another FAITH by the same Spirit, to another GIFTS OF HEALINGS by the same Spirit, 10 to another THE WORKING OF MIRACLES, to another PROPHECY, to another DISCERNING OF SPIRITS, to another DIFFERENT KINDS OF TONGUES, to another the INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES. 11 But one and the SAME SPIRIT WORKS ALL THESE THINGS, distributing to each one individually as He wills” 1 Corinthians 12: 1-11.

“But ye have an UNCTION from the Holy One, and ye know all things . . . 27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him” 1 John 2:20, 27.

“In Him also we have received an inheritance [a destiny—we were claimed by God as His own], having been predestined (chosen, appointed beforehand) according to the purpose of Him who works everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him as our Lord and Saviour] would exist to the praise of His glory. 13 In Him, you also, when you heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation, and [as a result] believed in Him, were STAMPED with the SEAL OF THE PROMISED Holy Spirit [the One promised by Christ] as owned and protected [by God]. 14 The Spirit is the GUARANTEE [the first installment, the pledge, a foretaste] of our inheritance until the redemption of God’s own [purchased] possession [His believers], to the praise of His glory” Ephesians 1:11-14 Amplified.

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 graciousnesss 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.

“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.

“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.

“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 . . . 5 and hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 6 But God COMMENDETH his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:1-6.

“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.

“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).

GRATITUDE – A THANKS GIVING AND THANKS LIVING HEARTEDNESS

By Leave a Comment

GRATITUDE – A THANKS GIVING AND THANKS LIVING HEARTEDNESS: IT’S THE POWER AND ESSENCE OF HIGHER ALTITUDE!

“And WHATSOEVER ye DO in WORD or DEED, DO ALL in the name of the Lord Jesus, GIVING THANKS to God and the Father by Him” Colossians 3:17.

GRATITUDE – is the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness. GRATITUDE of hearts is a gracious and graceful ATTITUDE for one’s ALTITUDE in doing life and living godly in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Hence there’s the need to live a GRATEFUL and THANKFUL life in all circumstances and situations irrespective of one’s status, creed, colour, gender and tongue.

When you come to a place of ACKNOWLEDGING in life and grace, a place of not only GIVING God THANKS at the point of INCIDENCE, but you have a LIVING ATTITUDE to give THANKS ALWAYS without prejudice, therein is a set place knowingly and unknowingly, of awesome ALTITUDE. That’s an atmosphere, wherein you just LIVE in the REALM of THANKS – and such a heartfelt ATTITUDE of the will, will ALWAYS reciprocate and create an enabling for an ALTITUDE that’s beyond human words, but found in knowledge and understanding, as the Holy writ do encourage.

“By him therefore let us OFFER the SACRIFICE of PRAISE to God CONTINUALLY, that is, the FRUIT of our lips GIVING THANKS to his name” Hebrews 13:15.

I therefore urge you to ensure that your THANKS GIVING act of GRATITUDE becomes a THANKS LIVING ATTITUDE for your ALTITUDE.

“Be CAREFUL FOR NOTHING; but IN EVERY THING by prayer and supplication with THANKSGIVING let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the PEACE of God, which PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:6-7.

“And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be FILLED with the Spirit; 19 speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; 20 GIVING THANKS ALWAYS for ALL THINGS unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” Ephesians 5:18-20.

“For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. 15 By him therefore let us OFFER the sacrifice of praise to God CONTINUALLY, that is, the FRUIT of our lips GIVING THANKS to his name. 16 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased” Hebrews 13:14-16.

“In every thing GIVE THANKS: for this is the WILL of God in Christ Jesus concerning you” 1 Thessalonians 5:18.

“And they sang together by course in PRAISING and GIVING THANKS unto the Lord; because he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever toward Israel. And all the people SHOUTED with a great shout, when they praised the Lord, because the FOUNDATION of the house of the Lord was laid” Ezra 3:11.

“Be ye therefore FOLLOWERS of God, as DEAR children; 2 and WALK IN LOVE, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. 3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; 4 neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: BUT RATHER GIVING OF THANKS . . .” Ephesians 5:1-5

“Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We GIVE THANKS to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints . . .” Colossians 1:8.

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and GIVING OF THANKS, be made for all men” 1 Timothy 2:1.

You CAN Triumph and Overcome THAT Unwarranted LIFE Pressure

You CAN Triumph and Overcome THAT Unwarranted LIFE Pressure: There’s The STAND in The GRACE to Say ‘NO’ in You!

“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.

It’s a high time to BUILD your life on PRINCIPLE – the PRINCIPLE that’s BASED ON God’s WORD and BUILT FROM the WORD of God. You need to ensure and be assured that what’s paramount in all your decisions on daily basis is PRINCIPLES that stands on God’s WORD of GRACE, in all you do in LIFE and GODLINESS. You can’t afford as the REDEEMED of God to fall PREY of the ENEMY and COHORTS, except for your inability to take and have a built up PRINCIPLE that STAND by your FAITH and GRACE in Christ Jesus stead. When you don’t have a PRINCIPLED stand that’s BASED ON God’s WORD and that’s BUILT FROM God’s WORD, you will FALL a PREY to any MANOEUVRE that comes on your path of life by the ENEMY and COHORTS in waiting to devour.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY THE DEVIL, as a ROARING lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the SAME AFFLICTIONS are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11.

May I say and assure you that in Christ Jesus stead, you can make it GREAT in life and BECOME what God has MADE you be in salvation through REDEMPTION; and by the entrusted GRACE of God, if you CAN know the HOW to say ‘NO’ to ALL THINGS that LIMITS you and CONTRAVENE your ACTS of FAITH in Christ Jesus, NOTHING can stop your intended desire in and with God, in Christ Jesus stead –  no matter what it is.

Grace to me in sum, is – God’s Riches At Christ Expense. And there’s an inner deposited ability and capacity embedded in your Salvation in Christ Jesus, and is called GRACE, and it’s to help you say NO to POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. It thus means you can say NO to anything that limits you from where God in Christ Jesus have enthroned you in Him. You have a choice to resist steadfastly any act of sinful demands, worldly prepositions and lustful pressures that crosses your path of destiny in order for you to succeed, be fulfilled and to eat the good of the land wherein you dwell, work, school and do life.

Colourful living and glorious life is not cheap, it demands the EXERCISING of the will of the GRACE that CAN say NO to setbacks and failure steadfastly. And you are GIVEN THE MEASURE of GRACE and FAITH to say “NO”. Therefore blame no one any more if you falter to be PRINCIPLED to exercise the will given measure to VICTORY, TRIUMPH and DOMINION.

If you CAN discipline and principle yourself to say NO, you will and can keep yourself above the waters that’s aimed to limit you from your godly position of greatness in Christ Jesus; and in knowing and understanding what the Scripture has said about you.

Saying “NO” is godly and it’s a principle to stand upon to live the “I CAN” in LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead as it’s written:

“I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ which strengtheneth me” Philippians 4:13.

BE BLESSED – BE EMPOWERED TO SUCCEED.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It TEACHES us to say ‘NO’ to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. . . “ Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

“But unto every one of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7.

“For I say, through the GRACE GIVEN unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man THE MEASURE of FAITH” Romans 12:3

“I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ which strengtheneth me” Philippians 4:13.

“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.

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 wants 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 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.

“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.
