SELAH – To PAUSE And THINK: To SOAR In DOMINION

July 19, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

SELAH – To PAUSE And THINK: To SOAR In DOMINION – The Place Of PASSION (ZEAL), KNOWLEDGE And UNDERSTANDING!

***PASSION, meaning Zeal, strong feeling or intensely emotional about something, is a vitality to life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. However, 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 for this:

“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 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. Simply for this reason to add understanding to knowledge:

“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 what you KNOW and PASSIONATE about is the key to WISDOM for life PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT.

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:

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

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE

July 6, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE: Preach CHRIST, Preach The WORD – There Would Be JOY In The City Of Your Being!

Don’t be Mistaken on the GOSPEL MESSAGE – It’s the POWER and ANSWER to all HUMAN INNERMOST QUEST – yesterday, today and tomorrow.

We live today in the times of pandemic, trials, brutality, bitterness, greed, persecutions, evils, denials, wickedness, hatred and poverty in our worlds, while there’s yet in the midst of all these happenings are God’s abundant provisions of DELIVERANCE, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE – for all hopeless, faithless and loveless challenges and circumstances.

The likelihood of the challenging times today is for most people to blame or curse or accuse or transfer aggressions to others. And some will take advantage of others by appealing to their emotions, sentiments and fears in other to have holds over them in their vulnerability.

And what people needs today in the midst of the situations, circumstances and challenges before them is the UNSPEAKABLE and INDESCRIBABLE JOY of the Lord in their hearts, family and communities; and much more the HOPE, FAITH and LOVE that can well out of their darkness as fountains with peace, worth, blessedness, graciousness, gracefulness and dignity. Hence a person of the HEAVENLY MANDATE, which is YOU, is of a great need and demand for today’s challenges and changing times. And your OBEDIENCE is PARAMOUNT to it all.

And a person of the HEAVENLY MANDATE indeed, will do only one thing: PREACH CHRIST, PREACH THE WORD in the midst of the irrelevancy of one’s and or people challenges and circumstances in order to trigger the needed JOY and PEACE that the individual, family, community and nations might need, in times of today’s challenges and changing times.

In the Apostolic days, all that was needed to bring OVERWHELMING JOY to the City of SAMARIA in the midst of persecution, evils, wickedness, falsehood, sorcery and divining, satanic cohorts preachers was to preach Christ, who is – The Living WORD. And the needed JOY came and took hold of the people while evil, hatred, falsehood and satanic cohorts and such likes, were silently KEPT AT BAY as God’s Kingdom and intent of overwhelming Joy advance to flood in the hearts of the Samaritan City.

I make bold to say that if you must keep your enemy at bay and keep the kingdom of God and intent advance in your life and those about you, PREACH CHRIST, PREACH THE WORD; Preach Not Sentiments, Not Denomination, Not Self egotism, and more importantly not Religion and not rudiments and traditions of this world. For that will create more conflicts than solving human needs and QUESTS.

I am been emboldened to make known to you that there will be a miracle of change in your life and godly living, because – THERE’S A MIRACULOUS POWER IN THE WORD, when CHRIST is PREACHED. The SALVATION that you, family and community you care about needs, is in The WORD, which is the GOSPEL OF CHRIST. Preach it! Live it!! And Joy Overwhelmingly will come!!! AMEN.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For THEREIN is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16.

“And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a GREAT PERSECUTION against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles. 2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him. 3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison. 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that CITY. . . “ Acts 8:1-20.

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

“For God, who commanded the light to shine OUT OF DARKNESS, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us” 2 Corinthians 4:6-7.

TOTAL GOSPEL

July 3, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

TOTAL GOSPEL: TOTAL REDEMPTION!

Government comes and God. Heroes acclaimed comes and go. Only in Christ – therein is true and genuine FREEDOM that endures for all life time – the life we have now and the life to come.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL OF CHRIST: for it is the POWER OF GOD UNTO SALVATION TO EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.

Jesus provides total Redemption by the total Gospel; and Total Gospel emancipates and delivers to wholeness being: SPIRIT, SOUL and BODY. Anything less is fallacy, deception and self-made failure.

Jesus wants you also to increase in grace and speed as He did in humanity in these wise:

** SPIRITUALLY in favour with God

** SOCIALLY in favour with people in human relationship

** PHYSICALLY (Stature) in great health and strength.

** MENTALLY sound in wisdom to profit one in life and to ease godly living: Economically and Intelligently, Psychologically and more.

Jesus could live above only in humanity for our learning as in the following scriptures:

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“And Jesus increased in WISDOM (Mentally) and STATURE (Physically), and in favour with God (Spiritually) and man (Socially)” Luke 2:52.

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23.

“For the WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of SOUL and SPIRIT, and of the JOINTS and MARROW, and is a discerner of the THOUGHTS and INTENTS of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13.

Food For Thought – LIVING ON PURE CONSCIOUSNESS

April 25, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

Food For Thought – LIVING ON PURE CONSCIOUSNESS: Which Are You – Bodily-ruled or Spirit-ruled Believer!

It’s a high time if you are not, you become a Spirit-Ruled and not Bodily-Ruled Believer in Christ Jesus – (Romans 8:1-3; 14-16; Galatians 5:16, 24-25). Bodily-Ruled Believer makes you a five sense ruled person. That’s when your governing lead is by what you hear, smell, see, taste and touch. That keeps you in the flesh, easily to be deceive by the forces of this world. But when you are Spirit-Ruled Believer, you are governed by the Holy Spirit through the WORD of God. You define matters by the heavenly insights and foresights in the earthly affairs.

If I may ask, are you a Bodily-ruled or Spirit-ruled in your day to day act of doing life?

May I remind you to know that Man as tripartite (triune) being consisting of – Body, Soul and Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:23 and Hebrews 4:12-13), respond differently. The response and results depends if it’s Bodily-Ruled or Spirit-Ruled. In the words of Kenneth Hagin of blessed memory, which I equally agreed to, I can say that:

* FEELING is the VOICE of the BODY.

* REASON is the VOICE of the SOUL

* CONSCIENCE is the VOICE of the SPIRIT

You are the ARCHITECT of your today and tomorrow; therefore, don’t SAY or WRITE something that your CONSCIENCE can’t live to stand by and see or watch, both in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Make only the good happen by being a Spirit-Ruled Believer in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE And THINK.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of OFFENCE toward God, and toward men” Acts 24:16.

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are TRUE, whatsoever things are HONEST, whatsoever things are JUST, whatsoever things are PURE, whatsoever things are LOVELY, whatsoever things are of GOOD REPORT; if there be any VIRTUE, and if there be any PRAISE, THINK on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“So then they that are in the FLESH (Bodily-Ruled) cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit (Spirit-Ruled), if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness . . . 14 For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” Romans 8:8-11, 14 (Emphasis Mine).

REDEEMED – From SIN & It’s Effect

April 7, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

REDEEMED – From SIN & It’s Effect: Poverty, Sickness And Spiritual Death!

Do you know what – I am so excited, graciously rejuvenating and absolutely overwhelmed with unspeakable joy and peace, in the daily knowing that Christ had REDEEMED us from the CURSE of the FALL and of the LAW – for the LAW was as a results of the FALL. This makes my intent to POSSESSING YOUR POSSESSIONS more of a reality, awesomely and amazingly driven.

Much more, we are REDEEMED from the summed curse EFFECT and STING of SIN: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. When you know and understand this, then your only responsibility is to appropriate, enact and ensure it by grace through FAITH. For it’s your spiritual vital and legal rights to POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS in Christ. Amen.

In the Old Testament, the BLESSING of God was based on CONDITION, but in the New Testament, God’s BLESSING is GIVEN, based on the DONE work of Christ. Hence our REDEMPTION BLESSING – IS A DONE DEED. Just your act of Faith on the believe of the done deed is all you need to do. Even as Abraham BELIEVE the GOSPEL PREACHED to Him and he RECEIVED, so can we RECEIVE ‘WHEN’ not on the ‘IF’, when we also BELIEVE as it’s written – 2 Corinthians 4:13. Praise God. Hallelujah. Amen.

Be BLESSED!

“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.

“We having the SAME spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore SPEAK” 2 Corinthians 4:13.

SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION – No Weapon Against: When You Are Established In Righteousness!

“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.

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

“For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who knew NO SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:21.

“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.

MARCH2018: MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION

March 3, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

MARCH2018: MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION – The Principle Phases To Know & Understand!

I have come to know and understand in over 43yrs walk in grace, that there are four (4) principle phases or acts of Redemption, that every Born Child of God in Christ MUST come to know and understand, to help them APPROPRIATE and ENACT their REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus with ease.

The KNOWING & UNDERSTANDING of these principle phases or acts of REDEMPTION will keep you afloat in grace as MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; otherwise one will be a wanderer in the congregation of IGNORANCE no matter how long you’ve been around ‘in Christ’ or ‘in Church life’.

THESE PRINCIPLE PHASES ARE:

**Phase 1. What God, through Christ DID FOR US in His great Substitution Work in Redemption.

**Phase 2. What the Holy Spirit, through the Word, DOES IN US in the New Birth and in the in-filling of the Holy Spirit.

**Phase 3. What Jesus is DOING FOR US now in His Present-Day Ministry at the Right-Hand of Father God.

**Phase 4. What His Word and His Love DO THROUGH US in Gospel Ministry.

Knowing and understanding these will change your inlook (Insights) and outlook (Foresights) in Redemption. Appropriating and Enacting your MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION will BECOME ease and norm in living and doing life.

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY (PATH) of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (Ignorant, unproductive, inactive)” Proverbs 21:16 (Emphasis Mine).

“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.

SPIRITUAL EXERCISE: WISDOM MYSTERY

January 25, 2018 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

SPIRITUAL EXERCISE: WISDOM MYSTERY – Are YOU CRAVING For WISDOM To BECOME?

In REDEMPTION we received WISDOM and Jesus Christ has become our WISDOM of God in Redemption (1 Corinthians 1:30; Revelation 5:9-12).

However, are you one craving for WISDOM mystery? Then examine YOURSELF in the ENLIGHTENMENT of the Holy Writ Scripture of Proverbs 8.

1 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
21 that I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
22 The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
26 while as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 when he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 when he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the Lord.
36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul:
all they that hate me love death.
