HOLDING FORTH UNTO FAITH: FOR YOU ARE – “GOD’S BATTLE AXE AND WEAPONS OF WAR”!

There is and there are, LIFE BATTLES, knowingly or unknowingly. And these Life BATTLES are real to All. But the greatest of ALL life battles, is the BATTLE of your FAITH in Christ. And there’s an ENEMY and CHORTS fighting daily, going to and fro, roaring aggressively and looking for any avenue and opportunity to devour you of your FAITH in Christ.

You need to know full well that the ENEMY and COHORTS knows that if it can get hold of your FAITH, EVERYTHING about you will be DEVOURED.

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – is the VICTORY and TRIUMPH that overcomes the WORLD’S SYSTEM – the world systems that’s run and control by the ENEMY and COHORTS against your well being in Christ Jesus. When the ENEMY and COHORTS roar, or makes attacks on you in its acts of operandi, you need to know and understand that it’s actual PRIMARY aim and objective are not after your MONEY, FAMILY, CAREER, RELATIONSHIP, BUSINESS, MINISTRY and SUCH LIKE – it’s PRIMARY intent is that you DENY,  GIVE UP and QUIT on your FAITH, for your FAITH is the ONLY divinely instilled DEFAULT and LIVING MECHANISM that OVERCOMES and ENACT your REDEMPTION in humanity, to live and do life in everyway in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

We are enjoined to keep HOLDING FAITH in order to FIGHT a GOOD FIGHT of FAITH in any life BATTLES. Therefore, BUILD UP your most Holy FAITH in Christ Jesus, by constantly affirming and enacting your stands in GRACE in your REDEMPTION, as a way of PREPAREDNESS to doing and dealing with the daily CHALLENGES and BATTLE. And by effectually exercising your rights and privileges Christ Jesus stead, you can then rule and reign in  DOMINION IN REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. 9 But resist him, be firm in your faith [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.] 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]” 1 Peter 5:8-10 (Amplified).

I BELIEVE IN MEDICINE – AND I DO HAVE FAITH IN GOD

I BELIEVE IN MEDICINE – AND I DO HAVE FAITH IN GOD: AND OUR GOD – HE’S OUR HEALTH AND HEALER!

“God be MERCIFUL UNTO US, AND BLESS US; and CAUSE HIS FACE TO SHINE upon us; Selah. 2 That thy way may be known upon earth, THY SAVING HEALTH among all nations” Psalms 67:1-2.

I believe in Medicine. I believe in Science. I believe and do have FAITH in God. Neither is in competition with each others; while I know Medicine and science do CURE,  I equally believe, it’s only God that HEALS. Do you believe same as I do?

I am a living experience of the wonders of Medicine and Science in as much of the divine healing and health in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. And much so, of the goodness, graciousness and gracefulness of HealthCare PROVIDERS and GIVERS. I appreciate them ALL – ABSOLUTELY.

Honestly, I can’t thank God enough for the good and great work that the medical professional and clinician as Doctors, Nurses and other HealthCare Providers and Givers are doing in our world through medicine and science. They are wonderful, warmly and heartfelt loving people. Lets keep them in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.

As Parent and Pastor that’s involve in shepherding of people of various stages in life, visiting the hospitals and healthcare centres and such liked, I can boldly say absolutely that the tremendous inputs to humanity by these HealthCare Givers and Providers are enormous and worth my commendation in my worlds of exposure and experience; and what they are offering day to day in sacrifices it’s overwhelmingly gracious; much more in times of various PANDEMIC and WAR ZONES besides their normal Medicare routine in a stable circumstance, we see that their lives are subjected to be at the frontlets of the diseases and sickness which we are all trying to avoid. I duly thumb’s up for them all now and always.

However, in all, the combined efforts of these Medical and HealthCare Givers and Providers is PURELY TO CURE within the levels of the available knowledge and understanding on the research information best to them. They CAN’T HEAL. HEALING and HEALTH they know as I do and probably you also, belongs to God ONLY and ALONE – the ANSWER that’s only given and provided by the creator of the being in question.

“Why art thou CAST DOWN, O my soul? and why art thou DISQUIETED within me? HOPE thou in God: for I shall yet PRAISE him, WHO IS THE HEALTH OF MY COUNTENANCE, and my God” Psalms 42:11/Psalms 43:5.

Just as the best place to service a car is with the manufacturer or assigned and designated dealer by the manufacturer, so is the absolute ANSWER to human health and healing. ONLY GOD CAN HEAL. HE’S OUR HEALTH. HE’S OUR HEALER. HE’S OUR HEALING. HE’S OUR JEHOVAH-RAPHA, THE GOD THAT HEALS US.

“And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put NONE OF THESE DISEASES upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: FOR I AM THE LORD [JEHOVAHRAPHA] THAT HEALETH THEE” Genesis 15:26/Emphasis Mine.

Therefore – HAVE FAITH IN GOD – for  our God is our HEALER and HEALTH. Amen. He’s our present help in all that pertains to doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. And may He our Father God, perfect you and make you whole, complete and total in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Be EMBOLDENED In The FAITH

Be EMBOLDENED In The FAITH: There’s No Room For The COWARDICE In The GOSPEL!

“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.

FEAR captivates, it torments and it robs one of purpose, it belittles one, intimidates one, and enshrined the COWARDICE mindsets into one’s being. Then steals ones joy, kills ones vision and destroys ones path to become in LIFE and GRACE.

“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.

“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.

Unlike Fear, FAITH pleases God, overcomes the WORLDS settings and it inspires, stimulates, empowers, strengthen and emboldened ones being in everyway to thrive, live meaningfully, purposefully and fulfilling in LIFE and GRACE.

“Through FAITH we understand that the WORLDS were FRAMED BY THE WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 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 11:3, 6.

Suffix to know that Jesus Christ is Saviour, Lord and King OVER ALL, irrespective of stands today. Hence, been a coward instead of been emboldened of the GOSPEL to make a difference in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament, is unwarranted.

“. . . 36 The WORD which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ—HE IS LORD OF ALL— . . .” Acts 10:34-37 NKJV.

Being emboldened in Christ Jesus through Faith, for FAITH is the only set PATH to ensure TRIUMPH and VICTORY over the current climate of human limitations in the world affairs of DOING LIFE and LIVING Godly in Christ Jesus stead.

“For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

It’s time to say to oneself – IF GOD SAID IT, I BELIEVE IT AND THAT SETTLES IT. Just as in Bible days, they overcome him the enemy and cohorts by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB – Jesus Christ, and by their FAITH TESTIMONY and refused to compromised their FAITH even unto death possibility.

Today – are you EMBOLDENED IN YOUR FAITH in Christ Jesus? Or in the bondage of religion by belonging to a renowned denominational Church? Can you stand up TALL for your FAITH in Christ Jesus today? Which rules in you – FEAR or FAITH? JUST TO LET YOU KNOW – THERE’S NO MIDDLE GROUND!

“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.

Make your FAITH in Christ Jesus VISIBLE to give HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to humanity in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament that has implications spiritually, physically and economically.

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the FEELING OF OUR INFIRMITIES; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come BOLDLY unto the THRONE OF GRACE, that we may OBTAIN MERCY, and FIND GRACE TO HELP IN TIME OF NEED” Hebrews 4:14-16.

“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.

“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. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God . . . 19 For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the creature waiteth for the MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS of God” Romans 8:15-16, 19.

“For God hath not GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:7.

“Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth BOLDLY, to make known the mystery of the GOSPEL, 20 for which I am an AMBASSADOR in bonds: that therein I may speak BOLDLY, as I OUGHT to speak” Ephesians 6:18-20.

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by THE WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY; and they LOVED NOT THEIR LIVES UNTO THE DEATH” Revelation 12:11.

“For I am NOT ASHAMED of the GOSPEL (GOOD NEWS) of Christ, for it is God’s power working unto salvation [for deliverance from eternal death] to everyone who believes with a personal trust and a confident surrender and firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, 17 For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17/AMP [Classic Edition].

ENSURING THE PROFITABLE LIVING IN THE FAITH

By 1 Comment

ENSURING THE PROFITABLE LIVING IN THE FAITH: LIMITED BY AN UNBELIEF!

“BLESSED be the Lord, who DAILY LOADETH US WITH BENEFITS, even the God of our SALVATION. Selah” Psalms 68:19.

Our God of the heavens and the earth, have ensured in His assured redemption in Christ Jesus, that all who comes to know and accept Him as the only true God and in Christ Jesus by FAITH, through the effectual working of the Holy Spirit of conviction and conversion, are to be beneficiary’s of His BLESSEDNESS [Acts 20:20-21; John 17:2; John 3:16]. And to ensure His word, we are enjoined to know in the Holy writ of Psalms 68:19, that God in His BLESSEDNESS wants us to have LOADS of the BENEFITS of being His people in Christ Jesus as the chosen generation [1 Peter 2:9-10]. And He ensures that we are LOADED DAILY with His BENEFITS (PROFITS) in the BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead as enjoined the Holy writ of Psalms 68:19 above.

And having a BEFITTING LIFE, means having a PROFITABLE LIVING; and it’s in God’s good hearted thoughts, plans and intentions for His children. And He wants to give ALL His children a hope and a future in His set default in redemption rights and privileges in Christ Jesus – and this rights and privileges in redemption, have been rightly set in place from the beginning of time as a default. And it’s of our CHOICE to ensure that our God’s intent for us to have a PROFITABLE LIVING as we SERVE Him ACCEPTABLY and WORSHIP in WORTHILY in spirit and in truth comes to reality.

“A GLORIOUS THRONE, set on HIGH from the BEGINNING, is the PLACE of our sanctuary (the temple)” Jeremiah 17:12/AMP.

“For I know the THOUGHTS and PLANS that I have for you, says the Lord, THOUGHTS and PLANS for WELFARE and PEACE and NOT FOR EVIL, to give you HOPE in your FINAL OUTCOME” Jeremiah 29:11/AMP [Classic Edition]

Having now known that, to BENEFIT is to PROFIT in any endeavour of exercise, especially in the fulness of God’s given grace, upon which we stand justified by faith and have access by faith, toward God and faith in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ – what manner of person ought we to be in order to have the promised PROFITABLE LIVING [BENEFITING LIFE] to become a daily reality as we do life and live godly.

Now you’ve known God’s gracious intent and plans and thoughts towards you, you need to know that the major predicament, danger, limitation or hindrance that will prohibits and take us off from having the daily ASSURED PROFITABLE LIVING is UNBELIEF. Unbelief is a spiritual cancerous disease that’s unbounding in affecting the reason why many are not actualising the fulness of God’s promised BLESSEDNESS in redemption.

The effects and results of UNBELIEF it’s that it takes one to unscriptural places while others do find themselves in places they ought not to be in seeking for answers. Some ends up in sorcery, divining, witchcraft, magic and such like places eventually as in [Deuteronomy 18:9-14; Acts 19:13-20]; and while some overtime find themselves in the hands of falsehoods ministers as ‘Simon of Samaria’ and many others who appears as angels of light and ministers of God but are ravening wolves in sheep clothing’s and Satan cohorts agents that infiltrating into the Church [Acts 8:9-25 (1-25); 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; Galatians 1:6-9; Jude 1:3-4; Matthew 7:15; Philippians 1:15-18; 1 Peter 5:8-10].

UNBELIEF have robbed many of their BLESSEDNESS in redemption. And God abhors those who have UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING toward His word – written or spoken or by any format factor in context, to meet their respective needs of Him. UNBELIEF hinders FAITH operation in every endeavour that one intend to embarks upon in the name of God. For without FAITH it’s impossible to please God [Hebrews 11:6]. And it’s impossible to OVERCOME the world system of doing life that contravenes the default of God and that’s set in operation to give one the assured profitable living according to the scripture [1 John 5:4-5]. For all things is possible with God and to them that believe only.

“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is IMPOSSIBLE; but with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Matthew 19:26 [Mark 10:27].

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

UNBELIEF creates fears; and fear phobia’s torments, subverts and keeps one from actualising the enabling gracious gifts and power of God [2 Timothy 1:6-7; 1 John 4:17-18; Hebrews 2:14-15; Luke 1:68-75]; the spirit of fear is not only that it leads to bondages, but it’s a bondage and it captivates the human spirit, making life a challenging and difficult atmosphere to ensure that the assured PROFITABLE LIVING becomes a reality.

“Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou STIR UP THE GIFT of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath NOT GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR [TIMIDITY, COWARDICE]; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:6-7.

“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.

“Forasmuch then as the children are PARTAKERS of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the POWER of death, that is, the devil; 15 and DELIVER them who through FEAR of death were all their LIFETIME SUBJECT TO BONDAGE” Hebrews 2:14-15.

“BLESSED be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath VISITED and REDEEMED his people . . .  74 that he would grant unto us, that we being DELIVERED out of THE HAND of our ENEMIES might SERVE HIM WITHOUT FEAR, 75 in holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life” Luke 1:68-75.

And with the grip of fear, it makes the redeemed intending to serve God question God’s word and doubt Him through UNBELIEF. Hence, UNBELIEF is not of God; God detest UNBELIEF; and Jesus emphasised it severally, over and over in His humanity, that UNBELIEF will rob one of the BLESSEDNESS in Him, in redemption, and hinders the Father God’s intent – which is to LOAD US DAILY, with the benefitting life [profitable living] as ASSUREDLY promised.

“Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, WHY COULD NOT WE CAST HIM OUT? 20 And Jesus said unto them, BECAUSE OF YOUR UNBELIEF: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you” Matthew 17:19-20 [Matthew 13:57-58].

“And he could there DO NO MIGHTY WORK, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. 6 And He MARVELLED because of their UNBELIEF. And he went round about the villages, teaching” Mark 6:5-6 [Mark 16:14-15].

And in the context of the Believer’s of God in Christ Jesus, PROFITABLE LIVING it’s all about experiencing the BENEFITS as a beneficiary – having a BENEFITTING LIFE [PROFITABLE LIVING] in the FAITH of God in Christ Jesus. There’s an assured profitable living in the FAITH wherein God had set us free in Christ Jesus. And Father God in our redemption in Christ Jesus, wants us to profit, that’s to benefit in the fulness of His grace for us. Unbelief is the act of not mixing the word of God with FAITH to PLEASE God and the ABSENCE of God in one’s life – for only by FAITH that one can bring about their earnest desires into fruition through God’s word in Christ Jesus. For the children of ISRAELITES did not PROFIT to enter their promised BLESSEDNESS, simply because of UNBELIEF [a rejection and an absence of God]. They arrogantly did not mix the preached word they heard with faith and it costs them deadly at the end.

“For unto us was the GOSPEL PREACHED, as well as unto them: but THE WORD PREACHED DID NOT PROFIT THEM, not being MIXED with FAITH in them that heard it” Hebrews 4:2.

“For indeed we have had the GLAD TIDINGS [GOSPEL OF GOD] PROCLAIMED to us just as truly as they [the ISRAELITES of old did when the GOOD NEWS of deliverance from bondage came to them]; but the MESSAGE they heard DID NOT BENEFIT them, because it was NOT MIXED WITH FAITH (with the leaning of the entire personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness) by those who heard it; neither were they united in faith with the ones [Joshua and Caleb] who heard (did believe)” Hebrews 4:2/AMP [Classic Edition].

“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of UNBELIEF, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be HARDENED through the DECEITFULNESS of sin . . . 18 And to whom SWARE He that they should NOT ENTER INTO HIS REST, BUT TO THEM THAT BELIEVED NOT? 19 So we see that they could not enter in because of UNBELIEF” Hebrews 3:12-13, 28-19.

Many will God to hell on eternal damnation for their UNBELIEF. For simply on them not believing that God’s love for them in His Son Jesus Christ, and for the UNBELIEF cause in totality in the rejection of the redemption essence and for the UNBELIEF cause in undermining the complete and wholesome actualisation of the PROFITABLE LIVING, as enjoined in the scriptures for their well-being.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be SAVED. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HATH NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“And [at the same time] Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and confidently, saying, “It was necessary that God’s message [of salvation through faith in Christ] be spoken to you [Jews] first. Since you REPUDIATE it and JUDGE yourselves unworthy of eternal life, now we turn to the Gentiles . . . 48 When the Gentiles HEARD this, they began rejoicing and glorifying [praising and giving thanks for] the word of the Lord; and all those who had been appointed (designated, ordained) to eternal life [by God] BELIEVED [in Jesus as the Christ and their Savior]” Acts 13:46, 48/AMP.

“. . . 9 For in Him [Christ Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 AND YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM [CHRIST JESUS], which is the head of all principality and power . . .” Colossians 2:8-15.

The Bible, which is God-breathed WORD, it’s God’s instructions, counsel, correction, restoration, training and such like, for our PROFITABLE LIVING in Christ Jesus stead. And it’s as we LIVE through the SCRIPTURES in faith on the WORD of grace, we can share in the promised BLESSEDNESS, as many others before us, in our PROFITABLE LIVING inheritance in Him.

“All SCRIPTURE is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is PROFITABLE for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work“ 2 Timothy 3:16-17/Amplified [AMP].

“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 [AMP].

“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.

Therefore, I do hope that you can now be intentional and pragmatical today, to be resolved within you, to start living by FAITH and BELIEVING God and His WORD, instead of living in UNBELIEF and UNBELIEVING that robs you of the best of God, as you choose to step up in an onward and upward trajectory, as do life and live godly, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Blessed read.

FAITHFUL SAYINGS – FOR LIFE AND GODLY LIVING: UNDENIABLE VIRTUES – CHARACTER AND INTEGRITY!

“And then you need to keep a sharp eye out for COMPETENT men—men who FEAR God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE—and APPOINT them as LEADERS over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten”  Exodus 18:21.

Herein are some common sayings as well as some scriptural sayings, that are worth pondering – meditating and thinking – about and through, in cause of doing life and godliness in times and in matters of CHARACTER and INTEGRITY.

** “People of genius are admired.

People of wealth are envied.

People of power are feared.

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED”

 – Arthur Friedman

** Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there.

** And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us in the WORD. John 14:16-17; Romans 5:5.

** “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost”

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY—meditate on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us” 2 Timothy 2:10-12.

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE yourself toward godliness. 8 For BODILY exercise profits a little, but GODLINESS is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe” 1 Timothy 4:7-10.

“That having been JUSTIFIED by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to MAINTAIN good works. These things are GOOD and PROFITABLE to men” Titus 3:7-8.

“But the FRUIT (CHARACTER) 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 5:22-25.

The FAITH That WORKS: OPERATES In LOVE!

The FAITH That WORKS: OPERATES In LOVE!

“For [if we ARE] in Christ Jesus NEITHER circumcision NOR uncircumcision means anything, but only FAITH ACTIVATED and EXPRESSED and WORKING THROUGH LOVE . . . 13 For you, my brothers, were CALLED to FREEDOM; only do not let your FREEDOM become an opportunity for the sinful nature (worldliness, selfishness), but THROUGH LOVE SERVE and SEEK the best for one another” Galatians 5:6, 13/Amplified.

The FAITH that WORKS it’s found in them that LOVES God. Do you LOVE God? The reason being this: ALL THINGS will always WORK for those who LOVES God as they walk in the Kingdom Cause of God’s PURPOSE for them. Meaning,  they are addicted to walk in OBEDIENCE to God’s WORD to win life battles through FAITH (1John 5:3-5). FOR GOD WILL ALWAYS COMMEND WHAT HE COMMAND.

For FAITH works by LOVE. Until LOVE is enthroned in our hearts, in our day to day dealings with God and others, in RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP – there will always be a struggle in attaining to the FREEDOM we seek.

For LOVE is the summation of the LAW, and it’s unparalleled to the bondages of bye laws, traditions, oblations, creeds and dogmas of man-made enclaves to reach or please God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore – SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“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” Romans 8:28.

“Owe no man any thing, but to LOVE one another: FOR HE THAT LOVETH ANOTHER HATH FULFILLED THE LAW. 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10 LOVE worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore LOVE is the FULFILLING OF THE LAW” Romans 13:8-10.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

“Now the end of the commandment is CHARITY (LOVE) out of a PURE heart, and of a GOOD conscience, and of FAITH unfeigned” 1 Timothy 1:5.

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 Greater LOVE hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” John 15:12-14.

“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 . . . 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye LOVE one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1, 34-35.

The FAITH That WORKS: It PLEASES God through DILIGENCE!

The FAITH That WORKS: It PLEASES God through DILIGENCE!

“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.

The FAITH that WORKS, that is, productive and results oriented, is the FAITH that Is expressed through DILIGENCE. For diligence PLEASE God, and thus it locates and positions one effortlessly with kings – nobility, dignity and honour instead of the obscured, unproductive and mean men.

“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he maketh even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

And when you PLEASE God by your diligent ways, He makes the ENEMY and COHORTS to be at PEACE with you. What a better way to keep your enemy and cohorts at bay effortless in LIFE and GRACE, in order to keep you advancing the Kingdom Causes of our Good.

And DILIGENCE is to be steadfast, steadily steady, earnestly earnest , smartly smart, energetic effort and consistently consistence onto the set and or given focus; and being SMART – effectual and efficient to accomplish the desired intent.

Know full well that life in grace is not by HARDWORKING, it’s by being SMARTWORKING.

The FAITH That WORKS – PLEASES God through DILIGENCE. And PLEASING God REWARDS Through DILIGENCE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
