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

By Leave a Comment

CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES: IT’S IN THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT – THEREFORE LIVE AND WALK IN HIM TO ACTUALISED IN FULLNESS!

“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not FULFIL the lust of the flesh . . . 25 If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 25.

Until one begin to WALK in the Spirit as one LIVE in the Spirit, the true CHARACTER realities of the Spirit can’t be ACTUALISED in the FULLNESS of God’s given grace. Meaning, you can’t just lay claim to have LOVE for example, if you can’t WALK IN LOVE, or have goodness, peace, patience and such like more within you, if you can’t WALK in goodness, peace, patience and such like more with others. One need to both LIVE and WALK the WALK within and not just the TALK, in the Spirit.

So, as we take on the day and the week to turn into another day and week, it’s time 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.

Enjoy your day and week folks, because ‘A NEW DAY FOR A NEW YOU IS DAWN’ for a BETTER you and the BEST life, for a GREATER you.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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).

ENACTING YOUR REDEMPTION REALITIES AND PRIVILEGES: NO MORE FINGERS POINTING AND MIDDLEMAN/MEN TO GOD FOR US!

“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 consequence to the following scriptures and not limited – 2 Corinthians 1:20-22; Romans 8:28-30; Colossians 1:12-14 (Amplified); 1 Corinthians 1:9 etc, we can have a stand to express earnestly and declare that Jesus Christ has become our REDEMPTION. And in our REDEMPTION, we can say without prejudice that:

** He has RE-DEEMED (RE-OWNED) us back to God.

** He has JUSTIFIED us in God

** He has CALLED us to God

** He has RECONCILED us to God

** He has GIVEN us ACCESS to God

** He has QUALIFIED us

** He has CHOSEN us

** He has BLESSED us

** He has DELIVERED (RESCUED and DRAWN) us to God

** He has GLORIFIED us

** He has PREDESTINED/PREDESTINATED us

** He has TRANSLATED (TRANSFORMED, TRANSFERRED) us from the KINGDOM and DOMINION of darkness to God, so that we are not or the REFURBISHED and REFORMED people anymore

** He has ANOINTED and SEALED us

** He has EMPOWERED us

** He has LOVED us

** He has ABOUNDED toward us

** He has MADE us ACCEPTED in the beloved

** He has OBTAINED an INHERITANCE for us

** He ESTABLISHES and CONFIRMS us

** He has APPROPRIATED us and CERTIFIED us

** He has GIVEN us the Blessed Holy Spirit in our hearts as a PLEDGE of SECURITY DEPOSIT to GUARANTEE the fulfillment of His promise of eternal LIFE (ZOE) in and to us

** . . . And much more and ABOVE all else that we ARE – FORGIVEN, ACQUITTED and RECEIVED by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Therefore, there’s no more CONDEMNATION in God in Christ Jesus stead – Romans 8:1-2. No more FINGER POINTING and MIDDLE MEN OR MAN to rob you of your REDEMPTION REALITIES and PRIVILEGES in God, because of what Jesus Christ has and is done, who now has become and is our REDEMPTION in God. And you can now ENACT and AUTHENTICATE – your triumph, your victory, your overcoming realm and your more than conquerors testimony of God, in Christ Jesus stead stead – Romans 8:1-2; Acts 4:12; 1 Timothy 2:5; 1 Corinthians 1:30, 1 John 5:4-5; 2 Corinthians 2:14; Ephesians 1:1-23; 1 Corinthians 15:57; Romans 8:37.

Colossians 1:12-14. AMPLIFIED.

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE UNTO US wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31.

“Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he LOVED US, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins . . . We love him, because he first LOVED US” 1 John 4:10, 19.

“. . . 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: 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 . . . 8 wherein he hath ABOUNDED TOWARD US in all wisdom and prudence . . . 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 1:1-23.

“For as many as ARE the promises of God, in Christ they are [all answered] “Yes.” So through Him we say our “Amen” to the glory of God. 21 Now it is God who ESTABLISHES and CONFIRMS us [in joint fellowship] with you in Christ, and who has ANOINTED us [EMPOWERING us with the gifts of the Spirit]; 22 it is He who has also put His SEAL on us [that is, He has APPROPRIATED us and CERTIFIED us as His] and has GIVEN us the [Holy] Spirit in our hearts as a PLEDGE [like a security deposit to GUARANTEE the fulfillment of His promise of eternal life]” 2 Corinthians 1:20-22 AMPLIFIED.

BE ESTABLISHED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

By Leave a Comment

BE ESTABLISHED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS: THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS!

“But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: A SCEPTRE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is the sceptre of thy kingdom. 9 Thou hast LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS, and HATED INIQUITY; therefore God, even thy God, hath ANOINTED thee with the OIL of gladness ABOVE THY FELLOWS” Hebrews 1:8-9.

Living by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus, delivers from Religious Dogmas, Bondages, Make-Believe and Man-Made Traditions and such like doctrinal bondages. (Romans 10:4-10; 1 Corinthians 1:30).

Sin does not only makes one cheap, ugly, dirty, filthy and priceless or worthless before God, it reproaches, steals, kills and destroys an individual, family, generation, community and nations. That’s why Satan is likened to it.

But RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is of God in Christ Jesus, makes one to stand before God without shame, fear, guilt and inferior of any form of complexity. It establishes and fortifies individual, family, generation, community and nation. It’s a defence and delivers in the days of life and godly troubles and challenges of any sorts.

Therefore, RECONNECT yourself, family, generation, community and nation back to the RIGHTEOUSNESS which is of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Be BLESSED in EVERYWAY in CHRIST JESUS. 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.

“Righteousness EXALTS a nation: but SIN is a REPROACH to any people” Proverbs 14:34.

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35.

“The RIGHTEOUSNESS of the upright shall DELIVER them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness” Proverbs 11:6.

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE unto us wisdom, and RIGHTEOUSNESS, and sanctification, and redemption” 1 Corinthians 1:30

“. . . 3 For they being IGNORANT of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS, and going about to establish their own RIGHTEOUSNESS, have not submitted themselves unto the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that believeth . . .  8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” Romans 10:1-10.

“But seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God, and his RIGHTEOUSNESS; and all these things shall be ADDED unto you” Matthew 6:33.

“And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children. 14 In RIGHTEOUSNESS shalt thou BE ESTABLISHED: thou shalt be FAR from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. 15 Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. 16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. 17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord” Isaiah 54:13-17.

THE BEAUTIFUL YOU

THE BEAUTIFUL YOU: YOU ARE MADE TO THRIVE AND NOT BE A SURVIVAL IN GRACE!

“He has MADE everything BEAUTIFUL and APPROPRIATE in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11/Amplified.

It’s time to COLOUR YOUR WORLDS by what God Made You to Be In Christ Jesus stead – otherwise it’s an ADULTERATION and a COUNTERFEIT, FAKE, MAN-MADE and MAKE -BELIEVE, and that will make you less than God’s definition of you and for you, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION: old things are passed away; behold, all things are BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17/NKJV.

Beloved Friends, just another gracious opportunity to remind you of the need to raise your head up, shoulders high and walk on your high heels of FAITH in Christ Jesus stead, knowing that you are – fearfully, wonderfully and colourfully – MADE – to thrive and not survive in grace in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

You need to embrace the New You in Christ, live it and enjoy it. You are made to THRIVE and not to SURVIVE as an OVERCOMER of the world system in doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. You ARE defined to be TRIUMPHANT, VICTORIOUS, MORE THAN CONQUEROR and OVERCOMER in Christ Jesus stead, in the face of all odds and ends in life and godliness, simply because of what God is DONE in you by Christ Jesus. Amen. [1 John 5:3-5; 2 Corinthians 2:14; Romans 8:37; 1 Corinthians 15:57].

Be Blessed in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS & PRIVILEGES IN CHRIST JESUS

By Leave a Comment

YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS & PRIVILEGES IN CHRIST JESUS: THE CHURCH IS GOD’S PHYSICAL ENABLING TO YOU IN – ‘POSSESSING YOUR POSSESSION’ – IN CHRIST JESUS!

“But upon MOUNT ZION (THE CHURCH) shall be DELIVERANCE, and there shall be HOLINESS; and the house of Jacob shall POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS” Obadiah 1:17 [Hebrews 12:22-24]/Emphasis Mine.

The CHURCH which is the CITY of God, the EMBASSY, the AMBASSADOR of Christ and the MOUNT ZION – is your major LIFE WIRE to POSSESS God’s BLESSEDNESS and in POSSESSING your POSSESSIONS in the kingdom of our God in Christ Jesus stead. There’s an INHERITANCE for ALL in the kingdom as we soar and thrive  in grace as Christ has made us BECOME in REDEMPTION.

In Possessing your Kingdom privilege rights possession in Christ Jesus, your best place to start is THE CHURCH – the ASSEMBLY gathering of God’s precious and redeemed people. For as goes THE CHURCH, so goes YOU and THE NATION, otherwise it’s catastrophic when this order is overlooked and misappropriated for any selfish and disgruntled reasons.

For the above PRINCIPLE and UNDERSTANDING to ENSURE God’s BLESSEDNESS, you must as a matter of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY, endeavour to BELIEVE, BELONG in the Church of Christ Jesus in order to BECOME a part. The reason been, the Church which is you and the Churches of Christ, which is the mount Zion of God, are assured of three things when this order of grace is followed accordingly. The principle order of grace enables one to access and receive these but not limited:

* DELIVERANCE from all sorts (you name it).

* HOLINESS – God’s nature, accessible to all in order to obtain God’s grace and blessings.

* POSSESSING YOUR POSSESSIONS – all that Christ had obtained for you in REDEMPTION made Possible with the ease of His grace.

In life and grace, people prosper and attained to the BLESSEDNESS of greatness, honour, noble and such like by either or all of these:

** By INHERITANCE in birth

** By CONFERMENT (ENDOWMENT/BESTOWMENT) in work

** By ACHIEVEMENT in personal endeavours

In all these three aspects to greatness mentioned above, our Lord and Saviour, Christ Jesus, obtained, attained and received all on our behalf in God, to ENSURE and ASSURE that our redemption in Him is without prejudice and perfect – whole, complete, total, full and blessed. That’s why your possessing your possession it’s a certainty and we can ENACT and AUTHENTICATE them to reality and tangibility. [Ephesians 1:15-23; Ephesians 3:14-21; John 17:1-9; Philippians 3:20-21; Psalms 68:18; Ephesians 4:8-11; Revelation 5:9-12; etc]. And as He is, so are we in this world to access fully our possession in His purpose for us. [Romans 5:1-2; 1 John 4:17-18; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:3-12].

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

Your POSSIBILITIES can start now. However, envision youself with a great start to possess your possessions in Christ Jesus by being in HIS CHURCH not as an OBSERVER – that is – but as one that has intentionally BELIEVE, BELONG to BECOME as in God’s REDEMPTION plan, purpose and pursuit as it’s written in the scriptures.

SCRIPTURES THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 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 6:10-12 (Emphasis Mine).

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT a BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:8-9 (Emphasis Mine).

“But upon MOUNT ZION (THE CHURCH) shall be DELIVERANCE, and there shall be HOLINESS; and the house of Jacob shall POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS” Obadiah 1:17 (Emphasis Mine).

“But ye are come unto MOUNT SION (ZION), and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the general assembly and CHURCH of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel” Hebrews 12:22-24 (Emphasis Mine).

“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.

“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.

THE HOLY B-I-B-L-E: THE BLESSED-INFORMATION-BRINGING-LIFE-ETERNAL!

“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.

The Holy BIBLE – which is the written Word, the testament, the will and the covenant document of God to mankind, is the only place of ‘THE TRUTH’ – that brings truthful information for transformation and the knowledge for deliverance, complete freedom, restoration and emancipation to all, in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

The Holy Bible may seems to be mysterious to some, but is not a MYSTICAL book, but the PRACTICAL book of inspiration, revelation and empowerment. It’s not A TRUTH that you CONJURE, but THE TRUTH that you PRACTICE – in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY by God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Unlike every other books ever written or to be written, the HOLY BIBLE is not burdensome, irksome, grievous and taskmaster as some claim or acclaimed it to be, but it’s the LIBERATING BOOK for and of complete and wholesome freedom. It’s God’s Holy written documents that both INFORMS and TRANSFORMS the reader and user without prejudice, sentiments and discrimination. And it’s the only written documents whose AUTHOR is ever PRESENT to help one know and understand the content amicably and with ease with NO ADULTERATION and CONFUSION.

Every other BOOKS you READ, but the HOLY BIBLE is the only authentic and living BOOK that READS you, knows you, access and sets you free to give inner peace and tranquility at the same time at no cost, on the FAITH in Christ Jesus stead. And because it’s not bound or leads to bondage, it SETS everyone that comes to it’s request in their quest in faith with freedom from all forms of addiction, bondage and captivity at no charge.

The BIBLE means to me the – (B)BLESSED (I)INFORMATION (B)BRINGING (L)LIFE (E)ETERNAL: I therefore urge and plead to you to earnestly crave to – LOVE IT, READ IT, STUDY IT, MEDITATE ON IT and PRACTICE IT, for your good and you’ll find PEACE and FREEDOM that no man can price and prize you with. Hence, I am COMMENDING it to you right now as a friend, because I know it will ANSWER that QUESTION that still hangs  about you. It will CHANGE your life and wellbeing for the good, but you have to primarily READ it for yourself in first-hand in order – to know and understand whatever in context; and to safeguard you from external pervert, adulteration and confusion; and to make it happen for your good and goodness without prejudice.

“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.

I do LOVE the Holy Bible, more and more in each passing moments of READING . . . hence I INTENTIONALLY and DELIBERATELY recommends it now to you. It’s my Highly recommended TRUTH for you – you need to make an effort to READ, KNOW And UNDERSTAND – The HOLY BIBLE. The Author is always present, the Blessed Holy Spirit, to help while you do read and study and meditate upon it to have answers to your quest and experience emancipation at no cost of any sorts as you have faith in Christ Jesus stead. The Holy Bible is an ASSURED book of God’s prophetic WORD without prejudice for the good of all irrespective.

“So we have the PROPHETIC WORD made more certain [ASSURED]. You do well to pay [close] attention to it as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and light breaks through the gloom and the morning star arises in your hearts. 20 But understand this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of or comes from one’s own [personal or special] interpretation, 21 for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” 2 Peter 1:19-21/Amplified.

The Holy Bible – The Holy Writ – The Holy Scripture – The WORD of God – is God’s enabling VOICE for your yesterday, today and tomorrow. READ, SEARCH, PONDER and FIND YOUR LIFE PURPOSE IN IT. I sincerely and highly recommend it to you now.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK – Every grace!

“Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but THE WORD OF GOD IS NOT BOUND.” (2 Timothy 2:9).

He’s the blessed, gracious, and graceful Holy Spirit. Will you give Him your TIME and OPPORTUNITY this day to LEAD you?. Don’t just HAVE Him, but let Him LEAD you. I can ASSURE you, it will be a GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL day. Your dawn day will be a done day. His presence will illuminate you from all darkness into God’s marvelous light of liberation to THRIVE, TRIUMPH, VICTORY, OVERCOME AND MORE THAN CONQUEROR.

“For God, who COMMANDED the LIGHT to shine OUT OF DARKNESS, hath SHINED in our HEARTS (HUMAN SPIRIT), to give the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of the glory of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

I PRAY that every grace and blessings be yours today in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“If ye love me, keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth WITH you, and shall be IN you” John 14:15-17.

“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead DWELL IN YOU, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also QUICKEN your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you . . .14 For as many as ARE LED by the Spirit of God, they are the SONS of God.  15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, ABBA, Father . . . 26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.  27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.  28 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 8:11, 14-15, 26-30.

“But ye are a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an HOLY nation, a PECULIAR people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you OUT OF DARKNESS into his MARVELLOUS LIGHT: 10 which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had NOT OBTAINED mercy, but now HAVE OBTAINED mercy” 1 Peter 2:9-10

BE A BEREÄN – EXAMINE BEFORE YOU SAY AMEN

By Leave a Comment

BE A BEREÄN – EXAMINE BEFORE YOU SAY AMEN: IT DOESN’T MATTER WHO SPEAKS OR WRITE!

“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are MISTAKEN, not KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29/NKJV.

It’s a high time not to be MISTAKEN anymore in any matter of DOING LIFE and LIVING IN GODLINESS, in Christ Jesus stead; it’s time to be SCRIPTURALLY certain in CONTEXT, before saying – AMEN! Otherwise, you will walk erroneously and have yourself to blame for such ignorance.

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be SWIFT to HEAR, SLOW to SPEAK (ACT), SLOW to WRATH: 20 for the WRATH of man WORKETH not the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God” James 1:19-20 (Emphasis Mine).

To say ‘AMEN’ is gracious and graceful if you understand the INTENT and CONTEXT. For to ‘AMEN’ is to spiritually agreed within you of a CAUSE with your spirit, in affirmation to God’s WORD by the Holy Spirit on a matter, spoken or written by you or someone else. An “AMEN” is more than a mere word, it has spiritual implication and assertion, hence it’s not for a joke or wishy-washy affirmation statements. Hence, saying “AMEN” to everything before you hear and read or while you hear or read the handwriting on the wall, without the knowing and understanding of the SCRIPTURAL context is erroneous. For many have become CAPTIVES of their erroneous making and SUFFERED severely for their ignorance, in taking an instruction that wasn’t EXAMINED SCRIPTURALLY before ACTING upon it.

“MY PEOPLE are DESTROYED for LACK OF KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also REJECT thee, that thou 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 have gone into CAPTIVITY, Because they have NO KNOWLEDGE; Their HONORABLE men are FAMISHED, And their MULTITUDE dried up with THIRST. 14 Therefore SHEOL has enlarged itself And opened its mouth beyond measure; Their glory and their multitude and their pomp, And he who is jubilant, shall descend into it. 15 People shall be brought down, Each man shall be humbled, And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled” Isaiah 5:13-15/NKJV.

Sometimes when I read and examine the content and context of what people are saying AMEN and BLESS me toward, I wonder what kind of generation is being raised in the Body of Christ, who ought to make a difference by the WORD with the illumination of the Holy Spirit given to us and not by just affirming in allegiance to a man or creed they ignorantly look up to and or for their own selfishness or self-centered hype and applaud, truly gives and makes me very concerned.

WHAT GENERATION DO YOU CLASS YOURSELF? IS IT A GENERATION “BLESS ME”, OR GENERATION “AMEN” OR GENERATION “BLESS ME AND AMEN”, OR WHICH? OR THE GENERATION THAT EXAMINES TO ENSURE THAT GOD’S WORD RULES AND REIGN SUPREME NO MATTER WHO SPEAKS OR WRITE OR HAVE WRITTEN?

I am just pondering how people just say AMEN and BLESS ME to every form of post, which may be written or spoken in various media formats, simply because someone classed important said it. Did people ever READ the CONTENT, LISTEN and UNDERSTOOD the STATEMENT and much more affirm if it is SCRIPTURALLY written or recorded and it’s what it means in grace? There’s the need to be as the BEREAN Christian Believer’s in Christ Jesus stead, who do SEARCH and EXAMINE in order to ENSURE and be assured that their FAITH in a CONTEXT is scripturally believable and affirmatively.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.  11 These were more NOBLE than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED the word with all READINESS of mind, and SEARCHED the SCRIPTURES daily, whether THOSE THINGS were so.  12 Therefore many of them BELIEVED; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

When you amen as God’s child what only makes common sense and there’s no INSPIRATION, REVELATION and EMPOWERMENT of the Holy Spirit of grace by the WORD in such CONTEXT, it becomes a joke. And a joke does not bring about God’s grace to any one or enhances you to become what that statement is in grace wherein you can stand to access God’s enabling in all things that pertains to doing life and living godly.

** For example, someone said God wants to make you a millionaire, come forth and give a millionaire offering. You jump up and say amen. That’s falsehood. God never promised that in the scriptures. Besides, if you become a millionaire overnight by being hastened and your problems become millions, what difference does it make then in you. Will it not to have been better living by God’s gracious act of prosperity as in the Scriptures (3 John 2/Deuteronomy 8:18), than the sudden millionaire spell and syndrome that’s unscriptural?

The great Apostle and emeritus Paul, who wrote by the inspiration, revelation and empowerment the Holy Spirit of grace more than a third of the epistle of the New Testament Bible which we all do read to do life daily, was EXAMINE daily of the SPOKEN or WRITTEN epistles of his – (Acts 17:10-13; 2 Peter 3:14-18); more else, the need to SEARCH and EXAMINE these last days of accreditation with people accustomed to mere of more titles, adulteration, falsehood, photoshop, self-imaging and mere words coated with philosophy of common sense than the WORD affirmation. There’s the need for more examination to clean the Church and society of such menaces, perverts, wickedness and evils we see today. Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; Philippians 1:15-18.

There’s the NEED to EXAMINE what you read or hear for your own good in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, before you become a joke with the joker. Therefore, THINK and LEARN from the BEREÄN BELIEVER’S’ towards Apostle Paul as it’s written. Don’t be MISTAKEN anymore in any matter of life and godliness – Be SCRIPTURALLY certain in CONTEXT, before saying – “AMEN”. Matthew 22:29.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.  11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED the word with all readiness of mind, and SEARCHED the SCRIPTURES daily, whether those things were so.  12 Therefore many of them BELIEVED; also of HONOURABLE women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few” Acts 17:10-12.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR, not KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES, nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29.

“But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou OUGHTEST TO BEHAVE THYSELF in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” 1 Timothy 3:15.

“Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be DILIGENT that ye may be found of him in peace, WITHOUT SPOT, and BLAMELESS. 15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; 16 as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things HARD TO BE UNDERSTOOD, which they that are UNLEARNED AND UNSTABLE WREST, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the ERROR of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness. 18 But GROW IN GRACE, AND IN THE KNOWLEDGE of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen” 2 Peter 3:14-18.

“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.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that NEEDETH not to be ASHAMED, RIGHTLY DIVIDING (APPLYING) the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15 Emphasis Mine.

“We have also a MORE SURE WORD of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a LIGHT that shineth in a DARK place, until the DAY DAWN, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of the SCRIPTURE is of any PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the WILL of man: but HOLY men of God SPAKE as they were MOVED (LED) by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:19-21/Emphasis Mine.

“I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who CALLED you in the grace of Christ, to a DIFFERENT gospel, 7 which is NOT ANOTHER; but there are some who TROUBLE you and want to PERVERT the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, PREACH any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone PREACHES any other GOSPEL to you than what you have received, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9/NKJV.

“Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to CONTEND EARNESTLY FOR THE FAITH which was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For CERTAIN MEN have crept in UNNOTICED, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, UNGODLY men, who turn the grace of our God into LEWDNESS and DENY the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ” Jude 1:3-4/NKJV.

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even from ENVY and STRIFE, and some also from GOODWILL: 16 The former PREACH Christ from SELFISH AMBITION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to add affliction to my chains; 17 but the latter OUT OF LOVE, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. 18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in PRETENSE or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18/NKJV.

“Truly, these TIMES OF IGNORANCE God OVERLOOKED, but now COMMANDS all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31/NKJV.

FOLLOWING GOD’S PLAN, PURPOSE AND PURSUIT

By Leave a Comment

FOLLOWING GOD’S PLAN, PURPOSE, AND PURSUIT: GIVES FULFILMENT IN CHRIST JESUS’ STEAD!

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

There’s the CHOICE of being – FULFILLED in life and godliness (godly living) – and the CHOICE of being – MERELY SUCCESSFUL in life as many have found themselves.

The quest there in the above concept is this – can you afford to move from a place of GLAMOUR SUCCESS to a DESERT PLACE in life when it’s God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for you? And especially when you know that in God’s plan, purpose and pursuit, could be your place of FULFILLMENT indeed. I want you to know for sure that doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus, is all about following God’s PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for your life and possible ministry rather than just having a mere glamour SUCCESS for men applaud and hype. Following God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for your life it’s the only guarantees for God’s APPROVAL and your fulfilment in Him.

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this PURPOSE the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil” 1 John 3:8 (John 18:37)

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED (ACCREDITED , ATTESTED) of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22/Emphasis Mine.

“And we know [with great CONFIDENCE] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] CAUSES all things to work together [as a PLAN] for good for those who love God, to those who are CALLED according to His PLAN and PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/Amplified (Ephesians 1:11).

“Study and do your best to present yourself to God APPROVED, a workman [tested by trial] who has no reason to be ashamed, accurately handling and skillfully teaching the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15/Amplified.

A person who is keen for a MERE glamour SUCCESS inclination and attachment, will not see the need to leave such GLAMOUR place (position) to attend to a single-person business outfit’s or Gospel Ministry –  especially as to go to such a place in the DESERT (remote) which was accomplished by Philip the Evangelist – who sees obedience to God’s instructions far higher and fulfilling as written in Acts 21:8, 26-29.

“. . . 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT REJOICING IN THAT CITY . . . 26 But an angel of the Lord SAID to Philip, RISE and PROCEED southward or at midday on the road that runs from Jerusalem down to Gaza. This is the DESERT route]. 27 So he GOT UP and WENT. And behold, an Ethiopian, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure, had come to Jerusalem to worship. 28 And he was [now] returning, and sitting in his chariot he was reading the book of the prophet Isaiah. 29 Then the [Holy] Spirit SAID to Philip, GO FORWARD and join yourself to this chariot . . .” Acts 21:1-8, 26-40.

And such obedience of Evangelist Philip to DIVINE order and command, is only possible of a person whose objective is not about being successful or have a global or glamour success but of being in obedience and FULFILMENT in Christ Jesus stead in God; that’s someone whose goal is to be a follower of God’s plan, purpose and pursuit – and who truly believes in WHOLENESS of God’s lead and will go WHEREVER the Lord LEADS as Philip did in Acts 8. That’s what I call and consider as one who is – OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE or ASSIGNMENT irrespective of the norm and prejudice that’s about the person.

Hence I am asking you today – WHAT IS YOUR WORTH IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN CHRIST JESUS? or How do you WORTH yourself in life and godly living in Christ Jesus? Is it by material achievement called SUCCESS or by being ACCOMPLISHED in God’s given vision and mission called FULFILMENT in His assignment irrespective of the norm about you?

Are you just a mere glamour SUCCESS driven inclination person or a person of FULFILMENT in the heavenly assignment. Note for sure that SUCCESS is good but relative and it’s of God however; but God’s desires is for us in Christ Jesus’ stead to have and achieve SUCCESS but far beyond just being successful. For we are blessed of God and He wants the best for us and to have us successful in our life’s endeavours but not at the EXPENSE of His eternal plan, purpose, and pursuit for our well-being in Him. Amen. So, there’s the need to balance the pursuit for success and to being fulfilled in God by following His plan, purpose and pursuit for us respectively.

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

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ: . . . 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, . . . 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, 5, 11.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

Unlike SUCCESS which is relative, FULFILMENT is not just only of God, but it’s a place of being readily, willingly and obediently set to accomplish in the wholeness, completeness and fulfilling of the Lord’s given and driven –  PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT – in LIFE and GODLY living. And it’s about doing this God’s given and driven in an unhindered and uncompromised way, with any sorts outside God’s intent, just as our Lord  Christ Jesus did (1 John 3:8; John 18:37) and Apostle Paul did in obedience (Philippians 3:1-16), and exhorted, admonished and charged Archippus to likewise do also as written:

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

BEING FULFILLED in life and godliness (godly living) is about living a God-GIVEN and DRIVEN PURPOSE LIFE; that’s what brings about MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus’ stead; and which is far beyond – just being a merely SUCCESSFUL person by material accumulation that’s of no heavenly implications under God’s assigned plan, purpose and pursuit.

Therefore I urge you today to follow God’s PLAN, PURPOSE, and PURSUIT for your fulfilment in Him, in Christ Jesus’ stead, because success is RELATIVE in matters of doing life and living godly.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this PURPOSE the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil” 1 John 8:3.

“Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. TO THIS END WAS I BORN, AND FOR THIS CAUSE CAME I INTO THE WORLD, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Everyone that is of the truth heareth my voice” John 18:37.

“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: . . . 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, . . . 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, 5, 11.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

“Philip [the deacon, not the apostle] went down to the city of SAMARIA and PROCLAIMED the Christ (the Messiah) to them [the people]; 6 And GREAT CROWDS of people with one accord listened to and heeded what was said by Philip, as they heard him and watched the miracles and wonders which he kept performing [from time to time]. 7 For foul spirits came out of many who were possessed by them, screaming and shouting with a loud voice, and many who were suffering from palsy or were crippled were restored to health. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT REJOICING IN THAT CITY . . . 26 But an angel of the Lord said to Philip, Rise and proceed southward or at midday on the road that runs from Jerusalem down to Gaza. This is the DESERT route]. 27 So he GOT UP and WENT. And behold, an Ethiopian, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure, had come to Jerusalem to worship. 28 And he was [now] returning, and sitting in his chariot he was reading the book of the prophet Isaiah. 29 Then the [Holy] Spirit SAID to Philip, GO FORWARD and join yourself to this chariot . . .” (Acts 8:1-40) Kindly read the entire chapter for context.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

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

POSSESSING YOUR REDEMPTION POSSESSION IN CHRIST JESUS

By Leave a Comment

POSSESSING YOUR REDEMPTION POSSESSION IN CHRIST JESUS: THE “DEED OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES” MADE POSSIBLE BY YOUR FAITH COMMUNICATION!

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

Beloved in Christ, enough of complain-hallelujah life style in your – day in and day out, much more over these years in circle and circus; it’s your time in Christ Jesus to ENACT, ENSURE and ACTUALISE the essence of being born of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

There’s the DEED OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN REDEMPTION with your name ENGRAVED in it by the virtue of being born of God in Christ Jesus; but it’s your prerogative to ASK, SEEK and KNOCK after it in order to make it a reality for you. You ask, seek and knock to obtain because you’ve ACKNOWLEDGED this good deed of God in Christ Jesus stead concerning you:

“ASK, and it shall be given you; SEEK, and ye shall find; KNOCK, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 for every one that ASKETH receiveth; and he that SEEKETH findeth; and to him that KNOCKETH it shall be opened” Matthew 7:7-8

You need to know also that your REDEMPTION reality can only be made possible by these but not limited:

** FIRSTLY through the ACKNOWLEDGING of your DEED OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN THE KINGDOM as a result of our Christ Jesus – His DONE DID DEED – for you and all in Him.

“That the COMMUNICATION OF YOUR FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) . . .” Philemon 1:6.

** And SECONDLY by your UNDERSTANDING of the KNOW-HOW of COMMUNICATING your KNOWN FAITH in Christ Jesus to matters of LIFE and GODLINESS in ALL about living life even as it’s written:

“. . . the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

And until you can ENSURE, ENACT and ACTUALISE the essence of REDEMPTION of Christ in you and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ to life matters will always be a struggle, strange, tasking and a burdensome in many ways which is contrary to God’s gracious WORD in 1 John 5:3. It’s for these limitations that there are many unfortunately ‘AMEN’, ‘HALLELUIA’ ‘I RECEIVE’ and ‘BLESS ME’ Christians around, despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ, unending fasting and prayers and various set traditional dogmas, creeds, religious steps they might have taken to make the essence of REDEMPTION in EVERY AREAS of doing life. Beloved in Christ Jesus, these OUGHT not to be so in Christ Jesus, knowing and understanding the all that Christ Jesus is BECOME to us in Him by REDEMPTION.

You can only APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of your REDEMPTION in Christ of all that God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD through the promised given HOLY SPIRIT, supposedly.

Here are few REASONS to seek for KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of all that God DONE DID DEED for you in Christ Jesus, in order to APPROPRIATE your REDEMPTION into reality as a POSSESSION:

** 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.

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

Further Scriptural Reading: Hebrews 6:10-12; Obadiah 1:17; Deuteronomy 1:6-8; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29; Genesis 12:1-3.
