GOD HAD MADE YOU RIGHTEOUS IN CHRIST JESUS

GOD HAD MADE YOU RIGHTEOUS IN CHRIST JESUS: BE INTENTIONALLY TO LIVE IN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS-CONSCIOUSNESS AND NOT IN THE SIN-CONSCIOUSNESS!

GOD had made us RIGHTEOUS, and has embedded in us with a default of living in the righteousness-consciousness of Him, in Christ Jesus; and we have to be INTENTIONAL and PRAGMATIC about it, in order to ensure it always, in our day-to-day living; otherwise one will give in, to the SIN and the SIN-CONSCIOUSNESS that contravenes the reality of our rights and privileges in redemption.

“Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 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 5:20-21.

You are the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God MADE possible in Christ Jesus; therefore, live in it without alterations, adulteration, perversion, and falsehood. For therein is the BEDROCK to thrive, to glory, to win, to triumph, to be victorious, to be an overcomer, and to be a more than conquerors in life and grace; also, to be dignified and fulfilled purposefully and meaningfully on the heavenly perspective for your earthly manifestations in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. For God by Christ Jesus has given us a righteous stand, upon which we can do life and live godly triumphantly to the fulness of our being.

“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.

And anything else outside God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus for your conscience and consciousness is counterfeit, adulteration, delusional, perversion and falsehood in all all areas of life ramifications and judgement in the light of God’s holy writ upon which we stand. And with SIN CONSCIOUSNESS, you will STAND before God to be scripturally charged as – guilty, shameful and with inferiority complex and prejudice and such like. While with RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS, you can take a STAND in grace to be without the guilty, shame, inferiority complex, prejudice and such like, because you are taking a standing upon the deeds of Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Beloved, it’s your new day, new dawn and a gracious time to raise your head up, shoulders high and on high heels of faith, in the CONSCIOUSNESS of being God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus stead, without prejudice, and dissimulation (hypocrisy) on all grounds.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE unto us wisdom, and RIGHTEOUSNES, 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.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; MUCH MORE THEY WHICH RECEIVE ABUNDANCE OF GRACE AND OF THE GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS shall REIGN IN LIFE by one, Jesus Christ . . . 21 that as sin hath reigned unto death, EVEN SO MIGHT GRACE REIGN THROUGH RIGHTEOUSNESS unto ETERNAL LIFE by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21.

“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 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. 5 For Moses describeth THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF THE LAW, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF FAITH speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) . . .” Romans 10:1-13.

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the BLOOD of Jesus Christ his Son CLEANSETH us from ALL sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we DECEIVE ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we CONFESS our sins, he is FAITHFUL and JUST to FORGIVE us our sins, and to CLEANSE us from all UNRIGHTEOUSNESS. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His WORD is not in us” 1 John 1:5-10.

FEAR NOT – IN SICKNESSES AND DISEASES

By Leave a Comment

FEAR NOT – IN SICKNESSES AND DISEASES: BE IT A NAMED OR UNNAMED VIRILE DISEASE – FOR THERE’S AN ANSWER!

“Say to them that are of a FEARFUL HEART, BE STRONG, FEAR NOT: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; HE WILL COME AND SAVE YOU” Isaiah 35:4.

God HEALS today – He is the same God YESTERDAY, TODAY and TOMORROW – Hebrews 13:8.

To FEAR NOT – is what the Holy Scriptures enjoined us to practice in over 365 times in the Holy Writ. Meaning there’s a FEAR NOT Scriptural context for each day as we do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus stead. And there’s an answer to any KNOWN OR UNKNOWN virile diseases and sicknesses in such respects.

“FEAR THOU NOT; FOR I AM WITH THEE: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness” Isaiah 41:10.

FEAR captivates, it imprisons, it torments, it limits, it cowardice and cast spell, because it’s the devil’s vehicle to police, intimidates and silence your FAITH in Christ Jesus stead.

“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.

For its our FAITH in God, that’s working by LOVE, that’s our ANTIDOTE to FEAR. The FAITH which is based on our redemptive rights and privileges to live and do life in the healing and health made available and possible for you in grace, needs to work by and through love.

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but BY LOVE serve one another” Galatians 5:6, 13.

“Herein is our LOVE made perfect, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of JUDGMENT [CHALLENGES]: 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 example, any virile disease has a name, and at the NAME of Jesus, EVERY KNEE (which includes the virile disease) shall BOW, that is, will submit and respect to the authority detects of the WORD of God and CONFESS to His sovereignty in all matters of life and godly living. Hence you need not to FEAR this vehicle and policing avenue of SATANIC and COHORTS spell when it shows up at your door and path in life, at any day and at any moment.

“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:  10 that at the name of Jesus every KNEE should BOW, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:9-11.

And know of a TRUTH that there’s no overdose in the use and application of THE WORD or in THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST and in the efficacious BLOOD OF CHRIST JESUS in resolving our life challenges. Only let us be soaked in the Word and in the power of the Spirit, for no virile disease will come NEAR to abound or stay ON you, for you are the covenanted child of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“He sent his WORD, and HEALED them, and delivered them from their destructions” Psalms 107:20.

I pray that your FAITH in Christ Jesus will well up in you against the spirit of fear, and cause you to swim in the rivers of living Spirit of God, to deadened all Sicknesses and diseases you dread about in Jesus redemptive names. Amen!

Be BLESSED – Be Empowered to live life in full in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Here are some Scriptural Word of Faith concerning  you to ponder and ensure you thrive in grace in Health and Healing.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . I will put none of these DISEASES upon thee . . . for I am the LORD (JEHOVAH-RAPHA) that HEALS you” Exodus 15:26/Emphasis Mine.

“And you will serve the LORD your God . . . I will take SICKNESS away from the midst of you. . . the number of your days I will FULFIL” Exodus 23:25-26.

“. . . He bore our SICKNESSES and DISEASES, and by His stripe you are WHOLE. . .” Matthew 8:16-17 (1 Peter 2:24; Isaiah 53:5).

“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you . . . shall also give life to your MORTAL bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.” Romans 8:11.

“I will give you the keys (authority) of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you BIND [forbid, declare to be IMPROPER and UNLAWFUL] on earth will have [already] been bound in heaven, and whatever you LOOSE [permit, declare LAWFUL] on earth will have [already] been loosed in heaven” Matthew 16:18 (Amplified).

“The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.” 18 He said to them, “I watched Satan fall from heaven like [a flash of] lightning. 19 Listen carefully: I have GIVEN you authority [that you now possess] to TREAD on serpents and scorpions, and [the ability to exercise authority] over all the power of the enemy (Satan); and nothing will [in any way] harm you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice at this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are recorded in heaven.” Luke 10:17-20 (Amplified).

YOU DEARLY NEED – THE FAITH AT REST – THE FAITH ASSURED – AND THE SPIRIT REFRESH

By Leave a Comment

YOU DEARLY NEED – THE FAITH AT REST – THE FAITH ASSURED – AND THE SPIRIT REFRESH: IT’S MADE POSSIBLE BY PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT – THAT’S THE SYNERGY!

“The spirit of a man will SUSTAIN him in sickness (INFIRMITIES), But who can BEAR a BROKEN spirit?” Proverbs 18:14.

“A MERRY heart (spirit) doeth GOOD like a medicine: but a BROKEN spirit DRIETH the bones” Proverbs 17:22.

When your FAITH is at REST, your SPIRIT-BEING  and WELL-BEING are at REST – then you are ASSURED of your daily triumph no matter what; but when your faith is troubled, your spirit is troubled – then your ASSURANCE and CONFIDENCE of triumph dwindles.

And FAITH is of the WORD which is spiritual and is of the Holy Spirit in your spirit, which when not taken care of and looks after, it leads to stress and depression and all forms of fear PHOBIA in your human spirit-being. STRESS is as a results of limited capacity to deal with our various life challenges, be it – family, work, career, ministry, business, academic, relationship, leadership and more.

You need to know full well that you are a spirit-being (spiritual), with a soul (mind, emotions, will and intellect) and living in a body (humus – physical) – (1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12; Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7).

However, there’s a good news, for God has left us with a synergy to enhance us with the grace of rest to deal with all factors that results to stress. It’s called – PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT – that’s PRAYING BY THE HOLY SPIRIT which means SPEAKING FORTH IN OTHER TONGUES – that is, in spiritual tongues/languages to be precise. And you need to get engaged and use it to do and live life. In it you will be REFRESH, REAWAKEN, RENEW, REKINDLE, SYNERGISE and AFLAME to enjoy a stress and depression free life in Christ Jesus. Amen.

MEDITATE on the SCRIPTURES below and be BLESSED in Christ Jesus stead to live free within. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For with stammering lips and ANOTHER TONGUE will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is the REST wherewith ye may cause the WEARY to REST; and this is the REFRESHING: yet they would not hear” Isaiah 28:11-12.

“For if I PRAY in an UNKNOWN TONGUE, my spirit prayeth but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is it then? I will PRAY with the spirit, and I will PRAY with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding” 1 Corinthians 14:14-15.

“Do not get drunk with wine, for that is wickedness (corruption, stupidity), but BE FILLED with the [Holy] Spirit and constantly guided by Him” Ephesians 5:18.

“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 1:20-21.

“PRAYING ALWAYS with ALL PRAYER and supplication IN THE SPIRIT, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints” Ephesians 6:18.

“If you FAINT in the day of ADVERSITY, Your STRENGTH is SMALL” Proverbs 24:10.

“The spirit of man is the CANDLE of the Lord, SEARCHING all the INWARD parts of the belly (BEING)” Proverbs 20:27 (Emphasis Mine).

“But THERE is a spirit in man: and the INSPIRATION of the Almighty GIVETH them understanding” Job 32:8.

“The Spirit of God hath MADE me, and the BREATH of the Almighty hath GIVEN me life” Job 33:4.

“In the same way the Spirit [comes to us and] helps us in our weakness [INFIRMITIES]. We do not know what prayer to offer or how to offer it as we should, but the Spirit Himself [knows our need and at the right time] intercedes on our behalf with sighs and groanings too deep for words. 27 And He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because the Spirit intercedes [before God] on behalf of God’s people in accordance with God’s will” Romans 8:26-27.

“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, 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. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead DWELL in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also QUICKEN (GIVE LIFE TO) your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you . . .14 For as MANY as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the SONS of God” Romans 8:9-11, 14 (Emphasis Mine).

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER

By Leave a Comment

AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER: JESUS DID, SO WERE THE FIRST AND EARLY APOSTLES AND FELLOW BELIEVER’S!

“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 8:28-30.

The power of God is the enabling of God to accomplish His PURPOSE in your life. Hence, a PURPOSELESS living lifestyle, can’t receive God’s POWER to enable the actualisation of the set out divine PURPOSE of God – in the individual – both in life and godliness, in Christ Jesus stead.

“. . . 11 in whom also we have OBTAINED an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who worketh all things after the COUNSEL of his own will . . .” Ephesians 1:3-12.

Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord, live for God’s given CAUSE and PURPOSE in humanity to accomplish God’s intent for humanity. And for that PURPOSE to be accomplished He was not only ANOINTED with the Holy Spirit, He was also EMPOWERED by the Holy Spirit, to fulfill that PURPOSE under God. 1 John 3:8; John 18:37; Luke 4:1-2, 14. Thus, indicating that Christ Jesus in humanity, in order for Him to fulfill God’s PURPOSE, and be able to bear WITNESS of the Gospel truth, could only have accomplished it all by the given POWER of God for that purpose. John 18:37 (John 5:31-33, 36-37; John 8:18; John 10:25).

Just know today for sure and assuredly, that God’s POWER is not a GIVEN for NOTHING. It’s for the PURPOSE of being a WITNESS of God, to humanity in all capacity of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. These places are thus but not limited: marriage, family, ministry, career, business, enterprise, relationship, leadership and such like. In all, it’s about being God’s representative and ambassador with the message of reconciliation to humanity through every avenue of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Acts 1:8; Matthew 24:14; 2 Corinthians 5:17-20; Ephesians 6:20.

The Disciples of Jesus Christ that turns Apostles, live to bear WITNESS of the Gospel of God in Christ Jesus, by the enabling POWER of God in His grace, that was bestowed upon them. Long before Christ Jesus was done of His humanity cause and purpose, He did informed and assured them and to us of today, of the promised POWER of God toward them and us of today, which will give the enabling of fulfilling God’s PURPOSE in humanity for any that comes to Him. Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; Acts 4:33.

In summary, one can say that, the essence of God’s POWER in an individual Christian, is to fullfil God’s PURPOSE in the individual, in order to ensure God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Romans 8:28-30. Hence, if you seek or are seeking after God’s enabling POWER in your life, ensure you’ve resolved the God’s PURPOSE in your life, otherwise you get NOTHING from God, but the counterfeit, adulteration and falsehood, just as many that have been BEWITCHED into SORCERIES as Simon of Acts 8:9-24, who goes about claiming as being attributed with the great POWER of God, in self-denial and self-deception to himself and his followers.

I hereby employ you to – AUGUST YOUR LIFE BY GOD’S ENABLING POWER IN CHRIST JESUS, as Jesus Christ DID experience in humanity, and so were, THE FIRST AND EARLY APOSTLES and FELLOW BELIEVER’S, in Christ Jesus stead did experience. Amen.

“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was LED by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. . . 14 And Jesus RETURNED IN THE POWER of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about . . . 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath ANOINTED me to preach the GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to preach the acceptable year of the Lord . . .” Luke 4:1-22.

“Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED”  Romans 8:28-30.

IN THE KINGDOM – KINGS RULE AND REIGN

By Leave a Comment

IN THE KINGDOM – KINGS RULE AND REIGN: AND THRONES ARE ESTABLISHED BY RIGHTEOUSNESS!

“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” Isaiah 54:14.

To AUGUST – is to reign and rule – in life as the REDEEMED – the ROYAL PRIESTHOOD that’s made KING and PRIEST Unto God.

And for you to rule and reign in the kingdom cause of our God, you Need To Be ESTABLISHED IN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS Of God which is in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTETH A NATION: but sin is a reproach to any people” Proverbs 14:34.

“It is an abomination to KINGS to commit wickedness: FOR THE THRONE IS ESTABLISHED BY RIGHTEOUSNESS” Proverbs 16:12.

“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” Revelation 5:9-10.

“Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, AN HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . . 9 But ye are a CHOSEN GENERATION, a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light” 1 Peter 2:5, 9.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made RIGHTEOUS. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: 21 that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through RIGHTEOUSNESS unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21.

“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.

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost” Romans 14:17.

DARE TO SAY A “NO” WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTER

By Leave a Comment

DARE TO SAY A “NO” WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTERS: IT’S AN ATTRIBUTE OF GRACE – YOU NEED NOT BE SORRY OR REGRET OR BE APOLOGETIC – IN SAYING A NO!

“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.

THANKS BUT “NO” THANKS – Is that too hard to say or make sometimes? Yeah – in majority of times especially in sentimental cases when you are not PRINCIPLED in matters of LIFE and GODLY LIVING, you will struggle to say the “NO” needed to keep you safe and free from bondage and entanglement of any sorts and kinds. Many people lives on regrets today for not rising up to the occasion to say a big honest “NO” and save their day and days ahead of time. Thus, meaning, YOU CAN FALL FOR ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING, when you don’t have a set PRINCIPLE based on the WORD of God that keeps you RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE and DISCIPLINED, for your self-worth in Christ Jesus stead; especially from the test and tastes of this life that is there to lure one away to an unpleasant and unpalatable position.

James 1:2-8, makes it known and understandable – that to be tempted or tested or tried is not a sin; but to let sentiments and prejudice cause you to give in to that which you are being tempted or tested about, will make and cause you to sin; and that will make you to become a PREY and VICTIM of your circumstances instead of a VICTOR if you’ve made a wise decision. And unfortunately that’s of your own making, for not saying emphatically a “NO”; especially in the knowing that God does not tempt any man to sin – nonetheless to break His WORD for any sentiments and prejudice as enjoined in James 1:13-15.

“Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God CANNOT be tempted with evil, NEITHER tempteth he any man: 14 but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his OWN lust, and enticed. 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death” James 1:13-15.

As a child of God, if you must be strong and be fortified in life and faith and to stay steadfast in Christ Jesus stead, you must know and understand when to say “NO”. And saying “NO” boldly and means it when your right of ensuring God’s WORD in your life is been violated and legislated by any person, irrespective of the person life stands and status. More especially when there’s a DEMAND to commitments that makes you SMALL or SMALLER or to DERAIL from the truth, than what God has done in you in Christ Jesus; and also, on matters that SUBTRACT you or from you, that DIVIDES you, decreases and limits you; and matters that will not add, multiply and increase you in life and godly living.

Satan may not be everywhere at the same time to place a demand on you in particular, but there are cohorts of Satan outworking in our place of doing life – Home, Church, Shopping Centres, Market Places, Workplaces, Business and Governmental Places, Political Places and Contract Signing Places and such like. And that means, as the scripture enjoin that we should be smartly vigilant and sensitive and alert and be guard against the cohorts acts of operandi, otherwise you be PARTAKER of their intent and may become a VICTIM in regret for not saying the “NO” to their suggestions instead of the “YES” you gave by word or actioned in kind.

“Be sober, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you” 1 Peter 5:8-10.

An emboldened PRINCIPLE must be upheld in our day to day life in this world in order to say a “NO” to cohorts intent, otherwise you will live a life of fear, intimidation, guilt, shame, inferiority and regret for not saying the needed “NO” to the divers lustful temptations that appears before you now and then – James 1:13-15; James 4:1-3; Proverbs 4:23.  And there’s an enabling grace within you to say “NO” in the light of the scripture of Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT and GODLY lives in this present age . . .” Titus 2:11-15 NIV

Being EMBOLDENED to say “NO” when it MATTERS, it’s an attributes of God’s grace in you. It saves you from troubles and all forms of regrets; and then heals, delivers, secures, directs, strengthens, equips, empowers; and it does many more such like attributes of graciousnesss and gracefulness for your goodness, in one’s act of doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

It’s time not to fall traps of sentiments that the ENEMY and COHORTS in their crafty act, will use to lure you out of FAITH through FEARS, INTIMIDATION and the like, into things you know very well, that you will not normally say “YES” to, and which in world of God’s knowledge deserves a big fat answer that spells “NO” at any time and at such moment of presentation before you – knowingly and unknowingly.

Therefore I say to you:

DARE TO SAY A “NO” WHEN IT’S TIMELY NECESSARY AND MATTERS – IT’S AN ATTRIBUTE OF GRACE – YOU NEED NOT BE SORRY OR REGRET OR APOLOGETIC – IN SAYING A “NO” TO ANY – NO MATTER THEIR STANDS AND STATUS IN LIFE.

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT and GODLY lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to REDEEM us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should TEACH. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. DO NOT LET ANYONE DESPISE YOU” Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).

“But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 But let your ‘YES’ BE ‘YES,’ AND YOUR ‘NO,’ ‘NO.’ For whatever is more than these is from the EVIL ONE” Matthew 5:34-37 (NKJV)

“But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “YES” BE “YES,” AND YOUR “NO,” “NO,” lest you fall into judgment” James 5:12 (NKJV).

“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).

“For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—WAS NOT YES AND NO, BUT IN HIM WAS YES. 20 FOR ALL THE PROMISES OF GOD IN HIM ARE YES, AND IN HIM AMEN, to the glory of God through us. 21 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, 22 who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee” 2 Corinthians 1:19-22 (NKJV).

“No temptation has OVERTAKEN you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, Who WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO BE TEMPTED BEYOND WHAT YOU ARE ABLE, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV).

THE NEW WINE – MAKES A NEW CREATION

THE NEW WINE – MAKES A NEW CREATION: A NEW CREATION MAKES A NEW YOU – NO PAST – TRULY FREE INDEED!

“Therefore if the Son makes you FREE, you shall be FREE indeed” John 8:36.

What is it that set up your day, every morning? Is it the house you live; is it the car you drive; is it the size of your bank account; is it the empire business and enterprise you’ve established; is it the career you are into; is it the size of the Church and Ministries you go to or called to Pastor; is it the trophies or precious stones you’ve accumulated in life; and actually WHAT SETS YOU UP EACH DAY, MY FRIEND? These and many such like, it’s worth pondering in all matters of doing life and living godly in grace, in Christ Jesus stead.

For me, what sets me up and my day, is the knowing and being assured that I am a NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus. That I am KNOWN of God, QUALIFIED of God, PREDESTINATED by God, GLORIFIED by God, am CALLED of God, am JUSTIFIED by God, and that I am in FELLOWSHIP with God to enhance my RELATIONSHIP with Him through my SAVIOUR and LORD, Jesus Christ. That’s truly indescribable, overwhelming and incomprehensible. The knowing that God’s LOVES me and His presence LIVES in me and with me and for me, that makes it more PRICELESS. That and many such like too numerous to note within time and space, is what gives me HOPE, FAITH and the needed LOVE to win my day for me and all about me for others in doing life and living godly in grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [2 Corinthians 5:27-21; Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV; Ephesians 1:1-12; Romans 8:28-40; 1 Corinthians 1:9; John 14:16-17; 1 Peter 2:9-10; Revelation 1:5-6; Revelation 5:9-12].

Simply put, the knowing that the NEW CREATION that I have BECOME of God, have NO PAST in Christ Jesus anymore; and my PAST no matter how terrible and unpleasant it was, it can’t hold back my today and future anymore, because of what Christ Jesus has done to wash them away into the sea of forgetfulness and cleansed me from every unrighteousness by His precious and redeeming blood. [2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Galatians 6:14-16].

“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH iniquity, and PASSETH by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH not his anger for ever, because he DELIGHTETH in mercy. 19 He will TURN again, he will have COMPASSION upon us; he will SUBDUE our iniquities; and thou wilt CAST ALL THEIR SINS INTO THE DEPTHS OF THE SEA” Micah 7:18-19.

What a true freedom, to live assured from the eternal God, every morning and everyday. The knowing that His stedfast love are new every morning and everyday towards you and me is gracious indeed.

Do you PERCEIVE the same in your being today and now. I hope and PRAY same for you in Christ Jesus, that you might know what it means to be freely free indeed.

AUGUST YOUR PATH WITH DILIGENCE

AUGUST YOUR PATH WITH DILIGENCE: YOU WILL THEN STAND IN THE PLACE OF HONOUR, DIGNITY, NOBILITY AND OPPORTUNITY!

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY, NOBILITY, OPPORTUNITY); he shall not STAND before MEAN (OBSCURED, UNPRODUCTIVE) men” Proverbs 22:29.

You are a PRODUCT of your life PATH. It’s not the end that justify the means as popularly said, but in essence, in life and in the kingdom of God principles, it’s the PATH that defines your eventual outcome.

You tomorrow is a product of your today. Your DILIGENCE PATH in your TODAY will surely evolve the KING in you for today and TOMORROW. So THINK and AUGUST your life rightly in grace and godliness.

God rewards DILIGENCE. Make it your footsteps and footprints to greatness. Keep at bay the MEAN – OBSCURED and UNPRODUCTIVE life game.

“But THE PATH of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18.

WHEN AT CROSSROADS: AUGUST YOUR LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that he which hath BEGUN A GOOD WORK in you will PERFORM it until the DAY of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6.

Are you at crossroads on defining which life PATH to follow in order to AUGUST your life well-being? I know of someone who owns life and had defined it because He had experience it too and AUGUST many innumerable life’s including mine. HIS NAME IS JESUS CHRIST – SAVIOUR AND LORD OF ALL

Just call on Him right now today, and you will never be the same again. The reason being that He’s the same person today as He was yesterday and will be tomorrow for your well-being.

“Jesus Christ the SAME yesterday, and today, and for ever” Hebrews 13:8.

Knowing this, that your secret, innermost path will define or show you up one day; and the beauty and shining light you desire of yourself today is embedded, made and defined already by the secret path of yesterday.

You can start afresh again if you failed yesterday, don’t give up for any reason at all. For God is able in Christ Jesus stead to make it all well for you again in all matters of doing life and living godly.

ORDER YOUR STEP RIGHT

ORDER YOUR STEP RIGHT: YOU WILL AUGUST YOUR LIFE ALRIGHT!

“The STEPS of a good man are ORDERED by the Lord: and he DELIGHTETH in his WAY. 24 Though he FALL, he shall not be UTTERLY cast down: for the Lord UPHOLDETH him with his hand” Psalm 37:23-24.

When you order your step path alright, you can never miss out in your journey or your destination. For you are the custodian of your well-being in Christ Jesus. Nobody has right into your life and well-being except you give them the right – the permission – into it.

Every step of faith you act upon defines your next level, so order your step alright because your today and tomorrow depends on it. Divinity will always intervene for the good of a well-ordered step. Romans 8:28-30.
