The NEW CREATION Have No PAST

The NEW CREATION Have No PAST: You Can BECOME What You BELIEVE In GRACE!

If any man be in Christ, He is a New Creation – is that difficult to know and understand?

I reason and know at baby birth, watching my lovely and beautiful 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 NEW DAWN to innovate, create, initiate 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.

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 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.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. 15 FOR IN CHRIST JESUS NEITHER CIRCUMCISION AVAILETH ANY THING, NOR UNCIRCUMCISION, BUT A NEW CREATURE. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God” Galatians 6:14-16.

“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.

“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.

” . . . FOR OTHER FOUNDATION CAN NO MAN LAY THAN THAT IS LAID, WHICH IS JESUS CHRIST. 12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13 every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is” 1 Corinthians 3:10-13.

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

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that HE WHICH HATH BEGUN A GOOD WORK IN YOU will PERFORM it until the day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6.

“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. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE JEW AND THE GREEK: FOR THE SAME LORD OVER ALL IS RICH UNTO ALL THAT CALL UPON HIM. 13 For WHOSOEVER shall CALL upon the NAME of the Lord shall be SAVED” 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).

Don’t Be A LAZYBUTT In The KINGDOM

May 13, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

Don’t Be A LAZYBUTT In The KINGDOM: AWAKE TO READING To Make A DIFFERENCE – Be FREE From IGNORANCE And The FEAR Of The UNKNOWN

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

You can’t afford in 21st Century as the REDEEMED in Christ Jesus, to live less than what REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus has offered you and us all; to make us Triumphant, Victorious, More Than Conquerors and an Overcomer of this present world through FAITH until Christ Jesus earnest return; and to take us away into the indescribable and incomprehensible gracious and graceful bosom of His. As such, stop been in a hurry to escape from reality of LIFE and GODLY LIVING because of your being LAZYBUTT – to louse around as if nothing matters. Something matters my dear – it’s about LIFE and GODLY LIVING. You are BORN AGAIN to FULFILL PURPOSE.

We are inexcusable for our ignorance – (Acts 17:30-31). You are only MISTAKEN and accordingly working in ERRORS, because of IGNORANCE of the TRUTH – (Matthew 22:29). Know for sure that it’s your principled responsibility and accountability when you fail through ignorance. Someone may be responsible for your falling in the ditch, you can’t live blaming such somebody for remaining and keeping yourself in the ditch. You are responsible and accountable for the decision you make to either RISE UP to be ABOVE ONLY, or STAY BACK, STAND SAME and STILL, mourning, complaining, excusing, accusing and such likes to fulfil sentimental position.

HENCE, I SAY:

“Informed Leaders Are Readers And World Changers. Until You Read To Know And Understand What You Read, You Are Still Ignorant. Therefore Read, Know And Understand Before You Lead And To Make A Difference” – Chukie MORSI Snr (Chukie MORSI Books Extract)

It’s time to wake up, rise up from your LAZYBUTT and give yourself to READING that will emancipate, rekindle, refresh, synergise and geared you to INNOVATE CREATE EXPLORE, INITIATE and MANOURVE into your unimaginable, better and best days, to make a difference and fulfill PURPOSE in the now of God for you.

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

I PRAY YOU UNDERSTAND MY PASSION FOR YOU TO RISE AND BEGIN AGAIN.

THERE’S A MIRACLE AWAITING YOU AGAIN.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

“Till I come, GIVE ATTENDANCE TO READING, to exhortation, to doctrine” 1 Timothy 4:13.

“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).

“And the TIMES OF THIS IGNORANCE God WINKED (OVERLOOKED) at; but NOW commandeth ALL men every where to REPENT: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31 (Emphasis Mine).

“Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR (ERROR, ERRONEOUS), not KNOWING the scriptures (God’s INTENT), nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).

“Jesus answered and said to them, “YOU ARE MISTAKEN, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God” Matthew 22 29 (NKJV).

Being FRUITFUL In BLOSSOMING and FLOURISHING

May 11, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

Being FRUITFUL In BLOSSOMING and FLOURISHING: In God – AGE Doesn’t Limit Any In FRUITFULNESS!

God gives the enabling grace – anointing – to make us FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in Him. And it is an indication of Him being our ROCK and without UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in Him. Psalms 92:14-15; 2 Corinthians 5:21.

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

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

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

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

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

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

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

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

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

SOME SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT ON FRUITFULNESS

May 10, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

SOME SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT ON FRUITFULNESS: SOWING The SEED Of RIGHTEOUSNESS – To EFFECT The PEACEABLE FRUIT(S) Of RIGHTEOUSNESS!

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

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

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

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

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

“And God is ABLE TO MAKE ALL GRACE ABOUND TOWARD YOU; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 NOW HE THAT MINISTERETH SEED TO THE SOWER BOTH MINISTER BREAD FOR YOUR FOOD, AND MULTIPLY YOUR SEED SOWN, AND INCREASE THE FRUITS OF YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS;) 11 being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God” 2 Corinthians 9:8-11.

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

“For ye were SOMETIMES darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: WALK as children of light: 9 (FOR THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS IN ALL GOODNESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH;) 10 proving what is acceptable unto the Lord” Ephesians 5:8-10.

SOWING THE PEACE OF THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

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

ENSURING GODLY CHASTENING THAT YIELDS THE PEACEABLE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

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

BEING FILLED WITH THE FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

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

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

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

May 8, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

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

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In Thee Shall All Nations Be Blessed. 9 So then THEY WHICH BE OF FAITH ARE BLESSED WITH FAITHFUL ABRAHAM . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the PROMISE of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by FAITH in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither JEW NOR GREEK, there is neither BOND NOR FREE, there is neither MALE NOR FEMALE: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

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

ADD TO YOUR FAITH THESE

May 8, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

ADD TO YOUR FAITH THESE: THE INGREDIENTS OF CHARACTER – TO ENSURE YOUR CHARISMA!

FAITH is – the legal and vital tender to do business with the heavens in the earthly affairs. We do BUSINESS in earthly affairs with men by monetarising it – that is, by using FINANCE – Cash or Kind, in transactions; but in the Kingdom, we do BUSINESS in life with God by FAITH – built on His WORD, as a means of transactions in order to receive the heavenly enabling in our earthly affairs. And this act of God’s grace, supersedes the BUSINESS with men indeed. And is done by FAITH built on God’s infallible WORD and not on fantasy or sentiments or on human dogmas and religious make belief.

Hence being diligence in faith it’s a necessity, for it pleases God. It accords heavens reward, it unveils and gives access to stand before kings (place of noble, honour and worth) and not in a place of obscure, unpredictable, unproductive, disgruntled and mean people. Hebrews 11:6; Proverbs 22:29.

Therefore, it’s imperative to start your daily schedules and routines – being today, with a DILIGENT SERVICE OF FAITH with God. Keep the same spirit through the week, months and each passing years, you’ll experience for yourself, the awesome reward of diligent service and work by faith in Christ Jesus.

However, in all that the act of FAITH matters to one in life with God, there are some add-on that are vital to synergies the effectual results of our FAITH transaction and communication – in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. These vitalities that will ensure that our FAITH delivers to us all things that pertains to life and godliness are but not limited (2 Peter 1:1-11) in these add-ons:

** VIRTUE

** KNOWLEDGE

** TEMPERANCE

** PATIENCE

** GODLINESS

** BROTHERLY KINDNESS

** CHARITY (LOVE)

These add-ons ingredients of character, makes you abound in your charismatic grace, and more so, as you stay DILIGENT in FAITH. It gives and makes the Kingdom default toward the HEAVENLY transaction in EARTHLY affairs seamless as we think on these THINGS as in the Holy Writ of Philippians 4:8, but not limited:

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are TRUE, whatsoever things are HONEST, whatsoever things are JUST, whatsoever things are PURE, whatsoever things are LOVELY, whatsoever things are of GOOD REPORT; if there be any VIRTUE, and if there be any PRAISE, THINK ON THESE THINGS”

I pray you God’s grace, wisdom and speed in everyway of living and doing life, as you ADD TO YOUR FAITH THESE NECESSARY INGREDIENTS OF CHARACTER, TO ENSURE YOUR CHARISMA in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS FOR MEDITATIONS:

“But without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before kings; he shall NOT STAND before MEAN men” Proverbs 22:29.

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 HEARING OF THY LOVE AND FAITH, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that THE COMMUNICATION OF THY FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:4-6.

“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. 5 And beside this, GIVING ALL DILIGENCE, ADD TO YOUR FAITH VIRTUE; and to virtue KNOWLEDGE; 6 and to knowledge TEMPERANCE; and to temperance PATIENCE; and to patience GODLINESS; 7 and to godliness BROTHERLY KINDNESS; and to brotherly kindness CHARITY. 8 For if these things be in you, and ABOUND, they make you that ye shall NEITHER BE BARREN NOR UNFRUITFUL in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But he that LACKETH THESE THINGS IS BLIND, AND CANNOT SEE AFAR OFF, AND HATH FORGOTTEN THAT HE WAS PURGED FROM HIS OLD SINS. 10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: 11 for so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ” 2 Peter 1:1-11.

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, and LABOUR OF LOVE, and PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God. 5 For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-5.

The WISDOM Essence Of – ZEAL/PASSION, KNOWLEDGE And UNDERSTANDING

May 6, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

The WISDOM Essence Of – ZEAL/PASSION, KNOWLEDGE And UNDERSTANDING: The Enabling GRACE To STAND Upon In Order To BECOME In Life and Godly Living.

It’s high time to desire the PRINCIPAL thing. That is, to seek for WISDOM in one’s PASSIONATE endeavour; and the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING in all that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING. For therein is the PATH to GRACIOUSNESS and GRACEFULNESS in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“If any of you LACK WISDOM, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ASK IN FAITH, NOTHING WAVERING. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways” James. 1:5-8.

Herein for your perusal are PRINCIPLES to think and ponder upon as to matters of – PASSION/ZEAL, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING:

PASSION/ZEAL:

***PASSION, meaning Zeal, strong feeling or intensely emotional about something, is a vitality to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. ZEAL – otherwise passion is good, but if without KNOWLEDGE, it’s dangerous and deadly – full of foolishness and frustration. Hence a mere passion or being passionate or zealous about something, is not enough to carry one through in life’s PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. One needs KNOWLEDGE to enhance the PASSION or ZEAL to a fruitful end.

It thus also means, being passionate about somethings as: Career, Marriage, Relationship, Skill, Trade, Governance, Leadership, Ministry and more, can only be meaningful when there’s an added KNOWLEDGE to such desired PASSION. And is simply as written for our knowing:

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a ZEAL (PASSION) of God, but not according to KNOWLEDGE. 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” Romans 10:1-4 (Emphasis Mine).

KNOWLEDGE:

***KNOWLEDGE is not very appreciated until you’ve experience effect of IGNORANCE. It’s very vital in our cause to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT to enhance one’s endeavours with the required or expected KNOWLEDGE for proficiency and for effectual and efficient results.

It thus means that, as good as KNOWLEDGE is important, it is not enough except there’s an UNDERSTANDING to that KNOWLEDGE in order to make it meaningful. A mere KNOWLEDGE without UNDERSTANDING puffed (PRIDES) up and it’s dangerous. And KNOWLEDGE is good, but if without UNDERSTANDING, it breeds arrogance and rudeness. It’s for the limitations, there’s the need to add understanding to one’s knowledge even as it’s written:

“Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. KNOWLEDGE PUFFED UP, but charity edifieth. 2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. 3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him” 1 Corinthians 8:1-3 (Emphasis Mine).

UNDERSTANDING:

***UNDERSTANDING what you KNOW and PASSIONATE about is the key to WISDOM for one’s life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. Hence where ZEAL (passion) and KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING are together, therein is the WISDOM to do life and much more, the WISDOM to be accomplished and fulfilled in life, will always show up.

For until one UNDERSTANDS full well what one is KNOWLEDGEABLE and PASSIONATE about, there will be life struggle to a THRIVING, COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL and FULFILMENT in LIFE and GODLINESS. Hence, the need to get UNDERSTANDING as it’s written:

“WISDOM is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and WITH ALL THE GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7 (Emphasis Mine).

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS is HARD (Difficult, Challenging, Rough, Struggling)” Proverbs 13:15.

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (Unproductive, Ignorant, Foolish, Unwise)” Proverbs 21:16.

The Knowing And Understanding Of – THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

May 4, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

The Knowing And Understanding Of – THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: It Delivers And Emancipates One From ERRORS – And From Being MISTAKEN!

Erring or being Mistaken in Scriptural terms indicates the idea of being DECEIVED and DECEIVING; but the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” sets one FREE from being MISTAKEN and walking erroneously in a world where many wants to be RATIONALISTS to the Scriptures which is – The Living WORD of God.

That’s why you sometimes if not most times, hear people in a way to cover up their deception and ignorance, will say – GOD UNDERSTANDS. God understands what? Their erroneous or deceptions or ignorance or state of being mistaken?

God wants you to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the TRUTH that SETS you FREE, by you making an intentional commitment to see that the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING is your own personal RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY and not someone else’s. Meaning God wants you to be principled to DO or be DOING – that is – to Be DOER of His WORD and not RATIONALISTS, in order to be BLESSED INDEED – James 1:22-25.

Herein are three INCAPACITIES but not limited of the state of the RATIONALISTS:

*1* Self Deception (Romans 1:21-22).

*2* Ignorance of the Spiritual Content of the Scriptures (Acts 13:27).

*3* The Disbelief in the INTERVENTION of DIVINE POWERS in matters of life and godly living (2 Peter 3:4-9; 2 Peter 1:2-4).

God does not wants us to be DECEIVED – living and walking in errors due to our ERRING on Scriptural Truth and in our IGNORANCE (lack of knowledge and understanding) of the THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY.

This Is WISDOM – having the KNOWING And UNDERSTANDING that ensures and assures you of the enabling GRACE to STAND And BECOME in Christ Jesus Stead.

I pray you get WISDOM in KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING in order to ensure you are stable in SPIRITUAL MATTERS that pertain to LIVING LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead. AMEN.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR, not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29.

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

“And the TIMES of this IGNORANCE God WINKED AT; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.

“But be ye DOERS OF THE WORD, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not A DOER, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a DOER of the work, this man shall be BLESSED in his DEED” James 1:22-25.

“O how love I thy law! it is my MEDITATION all the day. 98 Thou through thy COMMANDMENTS hast MADE me WISER than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. 99 I have more UNDERSTANDING than ALL my TEACHERS: for thy testimonies are my meditation. 100 I UNDERSTAND more than the ANCIENTS, because I keep thy precepts” Psalms 119:97-100.

Further Scriptual Reading: Romans 1:21-22; Acts 13:27; 2 Peter 3:4-9; 1:2-4.
