BETTER & BEST DAYS AHEAD

BETTER & BEST DAYS AHEAD: Be Creative, Innovative And Readily Ready For The New Dawn Of Doing Life After The Pandemic!

Surely there’s an end to everything under the sun – and this Pandemic is not different. Meaning it’s timed to stop surely one day – Proverbs 23:18. And life will roll in action and motion again. How much READINESS and PREPAREDNESS are you making for yourself and all about you at dawn day and dawn time when it comes, is very important now – (Proverbs 21:31; Proverbs 16:1, 3, 7, 9).

I have been kept going in every life passing phases in this SCRIPTURAL wisdom connotations: The END of a thing is BETTER than its BEGINNING;

Do not say, “Why were the FORMER DAYS BETTER THAN THESE?” For you do not INQUIRE WISELY concerning this. Such act of life attitude has helped and kept me going; and still helping me to stay strong and courageous, knowing that the best of anything is in the new start up and not in the old. And knowing that God’s act of faithfulness and steadfastness are new every morning (Lamentations 3:23), why then should one not live in the present tense of God to define ones life today and tomorrow. Your BETTER and BEST DAYS is come and coming out of this PANDEMIC.

Just as I will always say that the New Testament, the New Creation, the New Covenant and such likes, is/are richer and far more superior to the Old Testament, Old Covenant and such likes of the old. Therefore, withdraw from the concept of always looking back and thinking of the good old days. Regrets and living in the past will not elevates you no matter your mourning of the past and it’s history. And it’s a sign of not been innovative, creative and wise up to make good of the present to ensure and endorse the beauty and glory so much desired. It’s time for a new you for the new dawn day coming after pandemic; because our world will not be the same again. DON’T BE A LEFT BEHIND CHRISTIAN!

Am emboldened to inform you that the way we live and do life will change when this pandemic is done away with. An if currently you are not preparing and training yourself for the new you to emerge in order to EFFECTUALLY deal with the changes that will prompt up, you may live to regret for WASTING the LOCKED DOWN time doing no meaningful and purposeful preparation for the emergence and unknown.

Just know that our ways of utilising and managing the resource of TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT (Physical/Mental Exertion) to earn a living may likely change in many ways; and if you’ve not made yourself readily ready to adapt with the changes, there will be a left behind to catch up with the reality of change.

And say not then of been left behind, that the former days are better than the present, because you are not living in the now in the former days neither will the former days define your present day.

It’s time to look inward for your onwards and upwards match to the better and best you in life and grace. Our God is faithful to see us through life. But you must give him something to work with through your inwards (insights) and outwards (foresights) plan, purpose and pursuit.

I pray you have a GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL days in TIME PRESENT and TIME AHEAD in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart. 8 BETTER IS THE END OF A THING THAN THE BEGINNING THEREOF: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. 10 SAY NOT THOU, WHAT IS THE CAUSE THAT THE FORMER DAYS WERE BETTER THAN THESE? FOR THOU DOST NOT ENQUIRE WISELY CONCERNING THIS. 11 Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. 12 For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and MONEY is a DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY OF KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM GIVETH LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:7-12.

“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.

“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 you hath HE QUICKENED (MADE ALIVE), who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his GREAT LOVE wherewith he LOVED US, 5 even when we were dead in sins, hath QUICKENED US together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 and hath RAISED US up together, and MADE US sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness TOWARD US through Christ Jesus. 8 FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD: 9 NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST. 10 For WE ARE HIS WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ORDAINED that we should walk in them. 11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 that at that time ye were WITHOUT Christ, being ALIENS from the commonwealth of Israel, and STRANGERS from the covenants of promise, having NO HOPE, and WITHOUT God in the world: 13 but NOW in Christ Jesus ye who SOMETIMES WERE FAR OFF ARE MADE NIGH BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST. 14 For HE IS OUR PEACE, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 and that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 and came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18 for through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19 Now therefore YE ARE NO MORE strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 in whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22 in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit” Ephesians 2:1-22 (Emphasis Mine).

The Cross deed of Christ Jesus at REDEMPTION is the SILENCER of Satan, Tradition and Religion. Possessing your Possession becomes possible and effectual when you are free from religious and traditional bondages of all sorts in the name of God.

Today, you can experience the needed DELIVERANCE and FREEDOM from all sorts and forms of – RELIGIOUS CREEDS, PHILOSOPHY, OBLATIONS, TRADITIONAL RUDIMENTS, DOGMAS and such like.

Knowing The Truth That Gives True Freedom is knowing Jesus Christ. He’s the TRUTH That SETS Free. And to enhance the truth that sets one FREE, herein are some SCRIPTURAL TRUTH for you to read and meditate – ponder – in your spirit in grace.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST

April 9, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You knowingly LOVE And WASH The Feet Of The BLACK SHEEP Staff Among You!

Only by God’s kind of LOVE – Agape, can one be calm and at peace, dine and wash the feet of the one you know so well had betrayed you to your enemies. Jesus loves all unto the end – for love thrive in the midst of fears, hatred and wickedness. 1 John 4:17-18. Love is the ONLY invincible trap, which I call – LOVE SET TRAP – to send your traitors, conspirators, betrayers and blackmailers to their own night of DARKNESS – effortless and without stress.

Hence our REDEMPTION is perfectly GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL in the power of God’s LOVE.

Love was the trap set to get the DEVIL and COHORTS to enhance our REDEMPTION. Jesus loves all to the end. While he was LOVING His own, SATAN and COHORTS – Judas Iscariot, were at work, not knowing that it’s the Father God gate way and set traps to bring redemption into reality. Satan entered Judas, he made himself a VESSEL OF OFFENCE even in the midst of Christ Jesus offering and devoting love and sacrifice of service to them all as living examples to follow as His DISCIPLES.

Love Is And Was At Its Best, When God in Christ Jesus, knowingly Love And Wash The Feet Of The Black Sheep Staff Among His DISCIPLES – That’s Incredible!

It’s WORTH noting that LOVE is a double edge sword and it’s the only blow that satan and cohorts can’t DECIPHER when it matters. God’s final blow that’s indescribable and incomprehensible.

LOVE was God’s SET TRAP to make our REDEMPTION a reality and to give unprecedented silencing and unforgettable blow to SATAN and COHORTS. It’s time to make your FAITH effectual through LOVE – Galatians 5:6, 13-14.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Which NONE OF THE PRINCES OF THIS WORLD KNEW: for had they known it, they would not have CRUCIFIED the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:8

“Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that OFFENCES WILL COME: but WOE unto him, through WHOM they come!” Luke 17:1.

“Herein is our LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is NO FEAR IN LOVE; but PERFECT LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: because FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18.

“Now before the FEAST OF THE PASSOVER, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, HE LOVED THEM UNTO THE END. 2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him; 3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; 4 HE RISETH FROM SUPPER, AND LAID ASIDE HIS GARMENTS; AND TOOK A TOWEL, AND GIRDED HIMSELF. 5 AFTER THAT HE POURETH WATER INTO A BASON, AND BEGAN TO WASH THE DISCIPLES’ FEET, AND TO WIPE THEM WITH THE TOWEL WHEREWITH HE WAS GIRDED. 6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? 7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. 8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. 9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. 10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, BUT NOT ALL. 11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean. 12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you? 13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. 14 IF I THEN, YOUR LORD AND MASTER, HAVE WASHED YOUR FEET; YE ALSO OUGHT TO WASH ONE ANOTHER’S FEET. 15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. 16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. 17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. 18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me. 19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he. 20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. 21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake. 23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. 24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake. 25 He then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it? 26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. AND WHEN HE HAD DIPPED THE SOP, HE GAVE IT TO JUDAS ISCARIOT, THE SON OF SIMON. 27 AND AFTER THE SOP SATAN ENTERED INTO HIM. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly. 28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him. 29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor. 30 HE THEN HAVING RECEIVED THE SOP WENT IMMEDIATELY OUT: AND IT WAS NIGHT. 31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. 32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him” John 13:1-32.

BLESSED REDEMPTION – EQUIPPING HIS CHURCH

April 9, 2021 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

BLESSED REDEMPTION – EQUIPPING HIS CHURCH: HE GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS TO MEN!

Jesus GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to PERFECT and MATURE His people spiritually as found but not limited in the scriptures of Ephesians 4:7-16. These MINISTERIAL GIFTS are: APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS and TEACHERS and such likes as may be found in the Holy Writ.

I want you to KNOW and UNDERSTAND for sure that he didn’t give his MINISTERIAL GIFTS to LEGISLATE spirituality to his Church in Christ Jesus stead. For he has GIVEN the HOLY SPIRIT to help His Church to ENACT, AUTHENTICATE and ENSURE His WORD that comes by the GIVEN ministerial gifts in His love. Romans 5:5; 2 Corinthians 1:21-22; 2 Corinthians 5:5. Hence, none should be CONFUSED or LORD over in any form of legislation in the name of spirituality in Christ Jesus, which leads to BONDAGES, RELIGIOUS DOGMAS, MAKE-BELIEVE and FALSEHOODS DOCTRINES that becomes a will-worship Traditions making the WORD of God of no effects. Colossians 2:1-23; Mark 7:7-9; Matthew 15:5-9.

In COURSE and CAUSE of our PASSOVER, our Saviour-King and Lord – Jesus Christ, did not only RECEIVED GIFTS for us in His REDEMPTION DEED, He also GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to us, to enhance and enable the building up to maturity and perfection of His Church, in fulfilment to God’s eternal PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUITS.

For in Christ Jesus we ARE REDEEMED, we ARE BEING REDEEMED and we SHALL BE REDEEMED. It thus indicates the essence of us being GIVEN MINISTERIAL GIFTS to help us live meaningfully, purposefully And fulfilling as His Church to display His glory and wisdom on Earth.

Hence the need to know full well that when Jesus led captivity captive, He did not only RECEIVED GIFTS for men but He also GAVE GIFTS to men to fulfill Father God’s intent for His people in order for them to walk in KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of Him and to be secured from falsehood, adulteration, alteration and ignorance that the ENEMY and COHORTS of our FAITH in Christ Jesus will Pose. Meaning the GIVEN MINISTERIAL GIFTS was and is to EQUIP HIS CHURCH. Anything contrary is not just BONDAGE but FALSEHOOD and MAN-MADE MAKE BELIEVE leading to HELL. Hence I love this AUTHOR UNKNOWN publication writ, which reads:

“BUILDING the CHURCH merely on MIRACLES makes the Church a SUPERMARKET: people come and shop for their miracles and leave”

If you BUILD the CHURCH merely on HEALING you make the Church a HOSPITAL: People come to be HEALED and leave “And if you BUILD the CHURCH merely on the PROPHETIC, you make the Church a PSYCHIC and DIVINATION CENTRE: People come to be READ and leave” BUT if you BUILD the Church PURELY as A WORD BASED CHURCH, every other thing people seek naturally just happens”

Hence, I would commend us to Apostle Paul counsel in the graciousnesss and gracefulness of the Scriptures as it’s written:

“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.

Dear friend, know for sure that Jesus GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to FEED God’s people with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, thereby to EDIFY, PERFECT and MATURE His people spiritually. So if you must go to a place of fellowship and worship, ENSURE your total well being in Christ is going to such in place or platform as found in the scriptures as written:

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

To authenticate the Church position, God EQUIP His CHURCH by giving MINISTERIAL GIFTS to MEN; this is in order to ensure and assure of the wholeness of our Blessed REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Amen.
