ACCESSING GOD’S BLESSEDNESS: IT’S BY MINISTERING HIS WORD TO HIM!

Ministering God’s WORD back to Him, gives one the enabling ACCESS to RECEIVE His graciousness and gracefulness in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. When we intentionally and unreservedly MINISTER to the LORD by His WORD in an act of worship and services and in fasting and prayers, He will SPEAK back to us without reservation at the point of our needs. I can tell you that again and again in person even as it’s written also in this context:

“Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2 As they MINISTERED to the Lord, and FASTED, the Holy Ghost SAID, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. 3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away” Acts 13:1-3.

Do you really wants to stop wondering and wandering around and about on that matter that keeps you awake at night and gazing at the ceiling – I mean that matter making you to sob all day long and bothering you with nightmares? Then get CONNECTED and SYNCHRONISE to God’s WORD and BE HEALED and MADE WHOLE indeed – 1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12-14.

There’s an awesomeness in ministering God’s WORD back to Him, in order to receive His graciousness and gracefulness in all matters of doing life and godly living. The utmost PRAYERS, is by standing in the righteousness consciousness of God’s enabling grace in Christ Jesus, and ministering His WORD to Him accordingly in context. God is in bond with His WORD and that keeps Him fueled to act on your behalf by ordering the ministering Angels to act on our behalf by the WORD.

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that DO his commandments, HEARKENING unto THE VOICE OF HIS WORD” Psalms 103:20 (Hebrews 1:7, 14).

His WORD is His BOND and will both heal and get you delivered from the bondage of ignorance and every forms of destruction to your gracious life. Simply because God’s WORD is Christ Jesus Himself, made manifest and being revealed for your wellbeing today, tomorrow and ever more – Hebrews 13:8.

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7 (John 1:1-5, 14).

THE WORD of God is GIVEN to us to BE what Christ Jesus would have BEEN to you NOW as if being physically present. Until you see it in that light, it will all be illusion to comprehend. Hence the essence of THE WORD, not just WORD but THE WORD as in John 1:1-5, 14 and 1 John 5:7, which speaks of THE PERSON of Christ Jesus. He’s THE WORD not just WORD. Until that personification is appropriated into our spirit being – actualization of God’s promises are just illusion. And FAITH will be inoperative to PLEASE God as should be, in order to RECEIVE the needed ANSWERS from Him in all matters of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead – Hebrews 11:6; 1 John 5:3-5.

And I want you to know also, that as in the above statement of – THE WORD and not just WORD – is the same concept of the person of Christ Jesus as – THE WAY, not A WAY, THE TRUTH, not A TRUTH and THE LIFE and not A LIFE, as it thus indicates in John 14:6. The essence of the article “THE” indicates a person or personality, hence not the article “A” as to attribute to Savior and Lord Christ Jesus.

Therefore, begin your NOW – NEW DAWN – with THE WORD by Ministering back to God – His WORD, which is – THE WORD, personified in Christ Jesus stead as it concerns you and who you’ve become in Him by redemption deed. Amen.

Only THE WORD sets FREE; His WORD, Jesus, is THE WAY, THE TRUTH and THE LIFE – to God’s Heart for all human thirst and hunger in the world. Amen.

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were MADE by HIM; and without HIM was not anything MADE that was MADE. 4 In HIM was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . .12 But as many as received HIM, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And THE WORD was MADE flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 12-14.

INCLINE YOUR EAR TO GOD’S SAYINGS: HE’S THE GOD OF PRINCIPLES!

INCLINE YOUR EAR TO GOD’S SAYINGS: HE’S THE GOD OF PRINCIPLES!

“My son, ATTEND to my words; INCLINE thine EAR unto my SAYINGS. 21 Let them not DEPART from thine eyes; KEEP them in the MIDST of thine HEART. 22 For they are LIFE unto those that find them, and HEALTH (MEDICINE) to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy HEART with all DILIGENCE; for out of it are the ISSUES OF LIFE” Proverbs 4:20-23 Emphasis Mine.

Build Your Life On PRINCIPLES – and not on METHODS and GIMMICKS and SENTIMENTS. God operates on PRINCIPLES within the CONTEXT of His WORD in Christ Jesus. So, don’t let tradition of men that’s built on DENOMINATIONAL DOCTRINAL DOGMAS, CREEDS and BY-LAW to hold you within and without as if you are in a curt. Build your well-being, in doing life and living godly on the PRINCIPLE of the undiluted and unadulterated WORD of God, so that you can access and receive the fullness and wholeness of your redemptive inheritance in Christ Jesus unhindered.

“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.

The uncreated creator God I know is not a God of formulas and methods and such like; He is the God of PRINCIPLES hence  it’s a high time you should stop living on this ideas of five steps to miracles, seven keys to divine breakthroughs, six turnarounds to automatic promotion, three jumps to heavenly liftings and more of same like. God leads His own by His Spirit based on His WORD, through principles hence you can’t tie Him to a particular formula or method to resolve matters. Simply because someone you know got his or hers ANSWERS by John 3:16 does not necessarily mean God will take that same route for you or another of a kind.

You know what? God had designed and assigned your life path to shine, thrive, blossom and be colorful. You’ve been predestinated of God to SUCCEED in LIFE and GRACE (Ephesians 1:3, 5, 11; 2 Peters 1:2-4). Your PATH is to APPROPRIATE and ENACT your place in God’s Redemption plans for you. If you can just INCLINE your EARS to God’s SAYINGS about you in Life and Grace, just a WORD from Him can define your life forever and makes all the difference in you; this will be more gracious rather than all the deceptions of nine keys or steps or jumps or turnarounds and such like more to become rich and prosperous that will never be because it’s not scriptural, and as such are inferred by men to delude the vulnerable and the ignorant.

I call on you today to make a new starts up, to incline your ears to hear the sayings of God concerning you personally and primarily, in order to unfold your fullness and wholeness in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But the PATH OF THE JUST is as the SHINING LIGHT, that SHINETH MORE and MORE unto the PERFECT (DAWN) DAY. 19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. 20 My son, ATTEND to my words; INCLINE thine EAR unto my SAYINGS. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the MIDST of thine HEART. 22 For they are LIFE unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy HEART with all DILIGENCE; for out of it are the ISSUES OF LIFE” Proverbs 4:18-23 (Emphasis Mine).

“But as it is WRITTEN, EYE hath not SEEN, nor EAR HEARD, neither have ENTERED into the HEART of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that love him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit SEARCHETH all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

“For THE WORD of God is QUICK, and POWERFUL, and SHARPER than any two-edged 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.

“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.

YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD: ENOUGH OF THE UNNECESSARY WORRIES AND ANXIETIES OF ‘ESSESS!

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

If you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT this scriptural truth in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining-lluyia worries and anxieties. And to be BLESSED means to be EMPOWERED to – Succeed, Achieve, Triumph, Become, Create, Earn, Have, Prosper, Innovate and to be Favored and such like more. And THE BLESSING of God is SORROW FREE.

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES rich, and he ADDS no SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.

The BLESSING of God is not a CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE; but it’s the ENABLING, BESTOWED and EMPOWERING GRACE of God to create, earn and acquire these aforementioned (CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE), which most people today do fight and go crazy about no matter the cost and prize tag involved in having or getting them – ( Luke 12:30-32/Matthew 6:31-34). And by these enabling, bestowed and empowering grace called – God’s BLESSING, you can create, earn and have the aforementioned in grace without such SWEAT, STRESS, DISTRESS, DEPRESSION and ALL ‘ESSESS because you KNOW and UNDERSTAND the HOW to appropriate and enact what it means to be BLESSED of God in REDEMPTION.

Your BLESSEDNESS is a DONE DEED in Christ. This makes you MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. Our BLESSEDNESS is first spiritual before it becomes tangible – that’s reality – physical. Your ability to appropriate and enact the BLESSEDNESS by FAITH from the realm of the spiritual, that is, in the heavenly placement wherein the BLESSEDNESS are located (Ephesians 1:3), and Christ is position and seated (Ephesians 1:20) and we are position and seated in Christ Jesus at the right hand of God the Father (Ephesians 2:6). Knowing and having this understanding justifies why we are enjoined to lay our TREASURES above, meaning, in the heavenly, where no thieves and such like can access (Matthew 6:19-21).

The New Creation BLESSEDNESS of the NEW TESTAMENT, is not condition and not in any conditionality as in the OLD TESTAMENT essence that’s built and synthesized with conditionalities of an “IF” before you can access the BLESSEDNESS of God – Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-4; Revelation 5:9-12; Deuteronomy 28:1-14. For Christ Jesus in our REDEMPTION took care of the conditionalities of the old. So, let no man put you under subjection and subjective situation before you can earn your rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead after you’ve born anew as New Creation.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

“And it shall come to pass, IF thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and all these BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God . . . 9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, IF thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways . . 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; IF that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them . . .” Deuteronomy 28:1-14.

Therefore, APPROPRIATE and ENACT the scriptural TRUTH in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining-lluyia worries and anxieties and begin to enjoin your REDEMPTION provisions in Christ Jesus stead.

Have a BLESSED (an EMPOWERED) day. And be emboldened to say to somebody today – “YOU ARE BLESSED” – Meaning, Be EMPOWERED TO SUCCEED in LIFE and GRACE. Amen.

YOU ARE BLESSED – JUST APPROPRIATE AND ENACT IT IN GRACE TODAY.

“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 (GODLY LIVING), through the knowledge of him that hath CALLED us to GLORY and VURTUE: 4 whereby are GIVEB 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” 2 Peter 1:2-4.

GENUINE CHARISMA AND CHARACTER

By Leave a Comment

GENUINE CHARISMA AND CHARACTER: MADE POSSIBLE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT IN REDEMPTION!

Being CHARISMATIC is a gracious tool in life and godliness for any especially for the born again believer of God in Christ Jesus. But one’s CHARACTER is the only vehicle to sustain the CHARISMA in doing life and living godly and to continuously enjoy A MORE THAN CONQUERORS, in our REDEMPTION, in Christ Jesus stead.

It then means CHARISMA is of no PURPOSE, if one is found wanting in CHARACTER. It makes the whole PURPOSE of being MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION caricatured and laughable. For CHARACTER speaks of ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOUR, INTEGRITY and HONESTY, JUSTICE, TRUSTWORTHY and TRUTH and such like in the Holy Spirit.

In life most people are most likely to be carried away by CHARISMA, which unfortunately is not sustainable in cause of time without character. Hence this WISDOM NUGGETS is needful for guidance as I hereby state:

“The CHARISMA – capacity, talents and the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, enterprise and more, may TAKE you to the TOP, but only INTEGRITY, ATTITUDE, BEHAVIOUR and such like, the essence of CHARACTER, will sustain you there with honor and dignity”.

However, to operate graciously and gracefully in life and godliness  – CHARISMA and CHARACTER – are ESSENTIALS to doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, in order to ensure a MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; and the NEED to continuously walk in and by the HOLY SPIRIT is imperative, to APPROPRIATE and ENACT these virtues of CHARISMA and CHARACTER on daily basis.

The knowing and understanding of these essential virtues indicates these scriptural context:

*** CHARISMA (capacity, productivity and talents) is an act of the GIFTS by the Holy Spirit, written in 1 Corinthians 12:9-12; 1 John 2:20, 27.

*** CHARACTER (attitude, behavior, integrity, honesty and truth) is an act of the FRUIT of the Holy Spirit as written in Galatians 5:22-23; Matthew 7:15-20; John 15:1-16.

The Holy Spirit is the personality that ENABLE God’s GRACE to activate a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER. Therefore, to ensure a genuine CHARISMA and CHARACTER in life and godliness, you need to be BUILT UP by the Holy Spirit by the WORD of God as in the Holy Writ.

Thriving in God’s BLESSEDNESS through balancing the essence of CHARISMA And CHARACTER makes doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus a complete Gospel.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“But you, beloved, BUILD yourselves UP on [the foundation of] your most holy faith [continually progress, rise like an EDIFICE higher and higher], pray in the Holy Spirit, 21 and keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously and looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ [which will bring you] to eternal life” Jude 20-21 (Amplified).

MORE THAN CONQUERORS

MORE THAN CONQUERORS: APPROPRIATE AND ENACT TO RECEIVE YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN REDEMPTION!

One gracious and graceful thing God DID FOR US in REDEMPTION by Christ Jesus was to ensure and authentic that we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION; hence, Christ Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE GIFTS to us, as our RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES in HIM.

And Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE to us these REDEMPTION rights and privileges to enable us stay afloat as MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION.

There are Seven (7) Spiritual blessings and Five (5) Ministerial gifts BLESSEDNESS, which are firstly in the heavenly places, and we are to appropriate and enact them on earth. Today, we can virtually see the five in manifestation and operation, but there’s a struggle of the seven, in the Believers day to day living. But Why?

When you watch some ACTS and LISTEN to the  use of WORD in the cause of most PRAYERS, TEACHING and PREACHING, you wonder if indeed some people knows that what God has given them, which on their part would only requires ACCEPTANCE with THANKSGIVING for THANKS-LIVING, to help one APPROPRIATE and ENACT it into REALITY effortless and without sweat.

In life, when you are given something, say a gift, you receive it with acceptance and with thanksgiving. You don’t go about ASKING again and again for what’s already GIVEN to you. Unfortunately that’s what most Believers have made their acts in PRAYERS, and go further, even in their FASTING galore to measure spirituality – instead of RECEIVING and GIVING THANKS to God the Father in the name of Jesus, they go about ASKING and ASKING and ASKING . . . Instead of them to see the need to maintain a hearts of GRATITUDE as the main ATTITUDE, in which they will then enhance their ALTITUDE in life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead in God’s BLESSEDNESS.

Most times religious obligations, traditions, oblations and bye-laws dogmas has kept us in a particular routine with no substance that can do us any good in Christ. We FAST and PRAY for same thing and stay in same acts and process just because it seems good religiously and to our sentiments and sensual feelings, even when it’s obvious we are acting and praying AMISS and in ERRORS. That’s not the Gospel of God in our Redemption in Christ Jesus stead; and as such, we can’t APPROPRIATE and ENACT our rights and privileges WHOLLY and live MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION.

Therefore, it’s your time to express with RECEIVING, THANKSGIVING for THANKS-LIVING, your rights and privileges in these seven (7) key REDEMPTION DONE DEED for us in Christ Jesus stead. THESE ARE:

** POWER (Authority) – In place of fear, oppression, intimidation etc (Luke 10:19; 2 Timothy 1:7 etc).

** RICHES (Prosperity) – In place of poverty, hunger, famine, lack etc (3 John 2; 2 Corinthians 8:9; Philippians 4:19; Ephesians 1:3).

** WISDOM (Mental) – Sound mind & mental IQ in place of ignorance, foolishness etc (James 1:5; Luke 2:40, 52 etc ).

** STRENGTH (Physique) – In place of weakness, sickness, and all ‘ness etc (Philippians 4:13; Isaiah 40:28-30 etc).

** HONOR (Dignity) – In place of dishonor, shame, disdain, inferiority etc (Colossians 1:13-14; Ephesians 1:7; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21).

** GLORY (Beauty & Adoration) – In place of reproach, embarrassment, ashes, shame etc (Isaiah 63:3; 1 Peter 2:5, 9 etc).

** BLESSING (Empowering & Bestowed Grace) – In place of curses, setbacks, stagnation etc (Ephesians 1:3; Proverbs 10:22; 2 Peter 1:2-4 etc).

I pray that THESE that Christ has RECEIVED and GIVEN us in His REDEMPTION DEED will be APPROPRIATED and ENACTED in our life accordingly for an effortless mark without sweat in doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAD BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL blessings in HEAVENLY places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth . . . 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGHT, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12.

“Thou hast ASCENDED on high, thou hast LED captivity captive: thou hast RECEIVED gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them” Psalms 68:18.

“Wherefore he saith, When he ASCENDED up on high, he LED captivity captive, and GAVE gifts unto men . . . 11 And he GAVE some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers” Ephesians 4:7-11.

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

CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES: IT’S IN THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT – JUST LIVE AND WALK IN HIM!

Until one begin to WALK IN THE SPIRIT as one LIVE IN THE SPIRIT, the true CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES and it’s realities of the Spirit can’t be actualized in the fullness of God’s given grace. It thus means, you can’t just lay claim to HAVE LOVE for example if you can’t WALK IN LOVE, or have goodness, peace, patience and more within you, if you can’t walk in goodness, peace, patience and more with others. One need to both LIVE and WALK the WALK within, in the Spirit and not just the TALK.

So, as we take on to do life daily and the week to week, to turn into another week to week, it’s time to TRANSLATE your God given fruit of the Spirit by WALKING in them as you LIVE consciously in them. That’s how the CHARACTER ATTRIBUTES are FORMATTED within us.

Enjoy your day folks, because ‘a new day is dawn’ for a new you and the best life, for a greater you. DO THE LIVING and THE WALKING and not just in a mere TALK or TALKING of it.

“These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: 15 but if I tarry long, that thou mayest KNOW how thou OUGHTEST to BEHAVE (CONDUCT) thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. 16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:14-16 Emphasis Mine.

“I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye WALK worthy of the VOCATION wherewith ye are CALLED, 2 with all LOWLINESS and MEEKNESS, with LONGSUFFERING, FORBEARING one another in LOVE; 3 ENDEAVOURING to keep the UNITY of the Spirit in the bond of PEACE” Ephesians 4:1-3.

“This I say then, WALK IN THE SPIRIT, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh . . . 22 But the FRUIT of the Spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, LONGSUFFERING, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, 23 GENTLENESS, SELF-CONTROL. Against such there is no law.  24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  25 IF WE LIVE IN THE SPIRIT, LET US ALSO WALK IN THE SPIRIT” Galatians 5:16, 22-25.

“For a GOOD TREE bringeth not forth CORRUPT FRUIT; neither doth a CORRUPT TREE bring forth GOOD FRUIT. 44 For every tree is known by his OWN fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. 45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the ABUNDANCE of the heart his MOUTH speaketh” Luke 6:43-45 (Matthew 12:32-34).

“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.

WHEN YOU PRAY – PRAY IN WISDOM

By Leave a Comment

WHEN YOU PRAY – PRAY IN WISDOM: GOD WILL ANSWER A PURPOSEFUL DEMAND – WITH POWER AND GRACE TO FUNCTION AND BECOME – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 cease not to give THANKS for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may GIVE unto you the spirit of WISDOM and REVELATION in the KNOWLEDGE of him: 18 the eyes of your UNDERSTANDING being ENLIGHTENED; that ye may KNOW what is the HOPE of his calling, and what the RICHES of the glory of his INHERITANCE in the saints . . .” Ephesians 1:15-23.

God is ever ready to HEAR your voice and to ANSWER your PRAYERS; but He will love us to PRAY in WISDOM – through the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of His WILL in Christ Jesus; this is to enable us receive ANSWERS and unhindered by any factors place by our self-making or by any external laid down man-made religious ordinance outside His REDEMPTION deed of rights and privileges for us.

“. . . 31 And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:1-33.

The kingdom of God is not wishy-washy or either this or that, in order to appeal to sentiments and self-seeking satisfaction in our circumstances. For our God is a God of ORDER and DECENCY (1 Corinthians 14:40; 1 Timothy 3:15; Titus 1:5); and He will only COMMEND what He COMMAND.

And the kingdom of God is not a case of asking God of His POWER and GRACE for a PURPOSE without you being able to FUNCTION and BECOME or of you asking for God’s enabling POWER and GRACE for a no PURPOSE of God to FUNCTION and BECOME. God’s given and driven enabling POWER and GRACE is for a PURPOSE. It’s in OBEDIENCE to that PURPOSE of God that one can FUNCTION and BECOME accordingly and respectively.

PURPOSE speaks of assignment, opportunity and causes to accomplish while POWER and GRACE speaks of the ENABLING to FUNCTION – meaning to accomplish and BECOME in the assigned PURPOSE that’s given and driven of God in Christ Jesus stead; and that means, you can’t accomplished PURPOSE with God, without His enabling gracious POWER and GRACE being available for and with you; also, you can’t crave in prayer for God’s gracious and enabling POWER and GRACE for a no PURPOSE or ASSIGNMENT or CAUSES for it to accomplish in order to BECOME as given and driven. Therefore SELAH – PAUSE and THINK.

And as a child of God, the intent of PURPOSE of God in your life, is applicable whether to your education, career, business, ministry, family, marriage, relationship, finance, leadership, politics, governance and such like more. It’s for the lack of PURPOSE that there are many ABUSE -ABNORMAL USE and FUNCTION – of things and matters that the outcomes ought to have been gracious and glorious. And for this lack of PURPOSE that many PRAYERS and FASTING receives and yields NO results as expected; this is reason when PRAYERS, that are not PURPOSEFULLY driven and channeled, in commensurate to the desire WILL of God, the enabling POWER and GRACE, are not MADE available. God doesn’t answer a PURPOSELESS REQUEST that’s demanding for His POWER and GRACE no matter the noise, emotion and sentiments that are attached with it for any endeavor to function and become.

You need to know for sure and certainly, why the essence of PURPOSE is very important – especially, counting on how much PRAYERS and FASTING we do, and sometimes if not most times, we do accompany it with enormous NIGHT VIGIL’S that we do or are doing to ascertain God’s POWER and GRACE in order to FUNCTION and BECOME in Him in Christ Jesus stead.

So, watch out HOW you PRAY; you need to PRAY in WISDOM as I am laying out in this writ. For, it’s not just enough when a Minister lays hand and pour ointment on you and declare breakthroughs means an end, you need to reconcile the matter of POWER and GRACE that you are asking and receiving of God in order to FUNCTION and BECOME with the PURPOSE for such. Otherwise, after few days or weeks or months, you will find yourself back to zero point again and in delusion while things have not worked out. Especially when your Church services Ministers have prayed and or you’ve observed the necessary religious and doctrinal ordinances to make it all good for your goodness and at no avail.

It’s only when PURPOSE are rightly with the context of God’s WILL, then the accompanying POWER (rights, capacity, opportunity) to FUNCTION and the enabling GRACE to BECOME, makes all things to work together for the good and goodness of any – this is simply, to ensure that one have the meaningful FULFILMENT with God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. That’s why we must take heed to God’s assignment in our life and we don’t do a wishy-washy attitude with it if we intend having our altitude – onward and upward trajectory – of God’s APPROVAL as Christ Jesus received and not man’s APPLAUD that leads to self damnation – (Colossians 4:17; 2 Timothy 2:15; Acts 2:22; Romans 8:28).

Our perfect insight and foresight explanation in all I have discussed above is in our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ living example for us in His humanity. In His humanity, He was LED of the Holy Spirit, meaning not a self-made show-off agenda, to FAST and PRAY as in Luke 4:1-2 and Matthew 4:1-2. And afterwards, He returned with the POWER and GRACE of the Holy Spirit, and was accompany with the set PURPOSE of God – the enabling of the Holy Spirit to function and become, which He laid out in the synagogue Services immediately for all to bear Him record and witness as found in – Luke 4:1-2, 14, 16-22. He lived vividly through humanity in that CAUSE and PURPOSE with POWER and GRACE, and with meaningful fulfillment of God’s intent for humanity in Him. In same-like scenario, you can do life with God in all phases of your life, be it in – education, career, business, ministry, family, marriage, relationship, finance, leadership, politics, governance and such like.

Make your PRAYERS count and account for your good, meaningfully and fulfilling. And PRAYERS can only COUNT and ACCOUNT for one’s own good, when Intentionally, it’s done by reconciling DEMAND for POWER and GRACE with PURPOSE in Christ Jesus stead.

So PAUSE and THINK – SELAH!

INCLINE YOUR EARS TO THE HOLY SPIRIT SAYINGS: YOUR DEFINITION IS IN IT!

Speak LORD – was all that the young Samuel requested of the Lord in 1 Samuel 3:1-21, to make the DIFFERENCE in his life that two books was needed to write the acts and autobiography of him, in dealing with the LORD GOD, in doing life and living godly.

The Audio wave, Visual wave, Voice wave, Internet connections and such like more of the  communication channels of the multimedia surrounds us all, but only those that TUNED in or CONNECT get substance from those multimedia formats and not those that mere wishes, doing nothing. It is in the DOING and not in the MERE DREAMING and WISHING.

“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.

In the same scenario, if you don’t INCLINE your HEARING ears to let the LORD God speak to you His WORD by the Holy Spirit, you can’t BECOME of Him nor enter your life Fullness no matter how much time you spend in sleeping in the Church.

It’s a high time to make room to hear Him speak to you by MINISTERING to Him personally. This will end the stagnant state of things about you. The Heaven’s will APROVE you beyond men APPLAUD. You will then glow in grace and wholeness until the fullness of your day is come. And God will be ordering your step and path to places of graciousness and gracefulness with speed.

THE PATH OF THE JUSTIFIED IN CHRIST IS TO INCLINE THEIR HEARING EARS TO GOD’S SAYINGS.

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK!

“If ye love me, keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall GIVE you another COMFORTER, that he may ABIDE with you forever; 17 even the Spirit of TRUTH; whom the world CANNOT RECEIVE, because it seeth him not, NEITHER KNOWETH him: but ye KNOW him; for he dwelleth WITH you, and shall be IN you” John 14:15-17.

MORE THAN CONQUERORS: APPROPRIATING IN THE TRINITY OF – GRACE, LOVE AND COMMUNION!

Month MARCH by the Gregorian calendar year, is the third in the numbering of the months. And TODAY is the THIRD Day of The THIRD Month – MARCH of the year. And the number Three (3) speaks of TRINITY, as well as PERFECTION, meaning UNITY, COMPLETENESS, FULNESS, MATURITY and WHOLENESS.

And as in TRINITY in our BENEDICTION, we can appropriate the fullness, wholeness, unity, completeness, perfection and maturity of our GRACE, LOVE and COMMUNION, in our REDEMPTION rights and privileges, as MORE THAN CONQUERORS, in the light of the scriptures, as it’s written:

“The GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the LOVE of God, and the COMMUNION of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.

“For there are THREE that bear RECORD in HEAVEN, the FATHER, the WORD, and the HOLY GHOST: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.

It thus mean therefore, that our being Born Again as Believer in Christ Jesus is a great news; but the KNOWING and APPROPRIATING that you ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus, is more gracious and graceful. Hence, we need to APPROPRIATE the REDEMPTION rights and privileges in our moments to moments of DOING LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

Also, the KNOWING that you are REDEEMED by virtue of REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus is awesome; but it’s your being able to APPROPRIATE the essence in your day to day living in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus, as a REDEEMED child of God that is the most awesome, practical and productive in all.

And by the essence of the TRINITY in GRACE, LOVE and COMMUNION provisions in our REDEMPTION, you need to know it’s in your place in Christ Jesus, to APPROPRIATE and ENACT your redeemed position as MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. This is made possible for us to color our worlds and to enjoy to the fulfillment of the very Best of God in the face and phase of the changes and challenges in our WORLD of doing life today. And you must and should know without an iota of doubts that the journey begins NOW and NOT TOMORROW, in this walk in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.

Amen” Ephesians 3:20-21 Amplified.

INCLINE YOUR EARS – AND LET THE HOLY SPIRIT SPEAK TO YOU!

Month March is the third month of the Gregorian Calendar year. And today is the THIRD Day of The THIRD Month – MARCH of the year. As the number Three (3) may have spoken of TRINITY, but it does also speaks of PERFECTION, meaning COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and WHOLENESS.

When last did you hear God speak by the Holy Spirit to you and how often. I don’t mean speaking through someone else but to you personally as His own sheep in your journey of grace with Him. It’s time to incline your ears to the Holy Spirit SAYINGS! Proverbs 4:18-22.

Let this month be the beginning of the WHEN you begin to hear God by the Holy Spirit speak to you, especially in these days of falsehood: false ministers and brethren in names, who are wolves in sheep clothing, who manifest as angels of lights and roars as the lion in their pretense to make their own good and gains out of you.

I pray you wholeness and completeness as you make your day to count and account for your good and goodness with the TRINITY, speaking into your wellbeing and you hearing the voice of God correspondingly.

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.
