THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS – THE POWER OF CHOICE: CHOOSE LIFE AND LIFE-GIVING WORDS – THAT ARE SCRIPTURAL!

“And all bare him (Jesus) witness, and WONDERED at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

IT IS TIME TO LIVE WHOLE AND SPEAK WELL TO LIVE WHOLE into your total Well-Being: spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5:23/Hebrews 4:12-13). It’s time for you to SPEAK the WORD and LIVE by the WORD; and not just any POSITIVE WORD but SCRIPTURALLY based WORD.

Know full well that POSITIVE WORD may not necessarily be SCRIPTURAL WORD. SCRIPTURAL WORD are LIVING WORD. They are LIFE GIVING WORD, and Christ Jesus is THE WORD (John 1:1-5, 14). And He is the REASON for THIS CHRISTMAS. Speak Him FORTH into your life situation and circumstances.

Speaking The SCRIPTURAL WORD is speaking life to your situation and circumstances – Mark 11:23. And the dead or deadened will hear and come alive; and will rise up to live – John 5:24-27; and you will be QUICKENED to live again, when you speak SCRIPTURALLY BASED-WORD into any situation in Christ Jesus stead.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that HEARETH MY WORD, and BELIEVETH on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when THE DEAD SHALL HEAR THE VOICE of the Son of God: AND THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man” John 5:24-27.

Speaking forth the LIVING and GRACIOUS WORD to all about you – no matter what the circumstances presents at any moment, will DEFINE your life and the atmosphere you desire to see and enjoy just as a THERMOSTAT does define irrespective and not as a thermometer that absorbs and allows external definition.

I pray you enjoy your day in God’s gracious and graceful scripturally based WORD Of LIFE with HOPE, FAITH AND LOVE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“And all bare him (Jesus) witness, and WONDERED at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22.

“A man’s BELLY (BEING) shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH; and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in the POWER of the TONGUE: and they that LOVE it shall eat the FRUIT thereof” Proverbs 18:20-21.

“Thou art SNARED with THE WORDS of thy MOUTH, thou art TAKEN with the WORDS of thy MOUTH” Proverbs 6:2.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION (Declaration/Confession) of our FAITH WITHOUT WAVERING; (for HE is FAITHFUL that PROMISED;)” Hebrews 10:23 (Emphasis Mine).

“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.

“And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the spirit of PROPHECY” Revelation 19:10.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that HEARETH MY WORD, and BELIEVETH on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when THE DEAD SHALL HEAR THE VOICE of the Son of God: AND THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man” John 5:24-27.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you LIFE and DEATH, BLESSING and CURSING: therefore CHOOSE LIFE, that both thou and thy seed may LIVE: 20 that thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: FOR HE IS THY LIFE, AND THE LENGTH OF THY DAYS: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them” Deuteronomy 30:19-20.

“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [that is, separate you from profane and vulgar things, make you pure and whole and undamaged—consecrated to Him—set apart for His purpose]; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete and [be found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Amplified.

“For THE WORD of God is LIVING and ACTIVE and FULL OF POWER [making it OPERATIVE, ENERGIZING, and EFFECTIVE]. It is SHARPER than any TWO-EDGED SWORD, penetrating as far as the DIVISION of the SOUL and SPIRIT [the completeness of a person], and of both JOINTS and MARROW [the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and judging the very THOUGHTS and INTENTIONS of the heart. 13 And NOT A CREATURE EXISTS that is CONCEALED from His sight, but all things are open and EXPOSED, and REVEALED to the eyes of Him with whom we have to give account” Hebrews 4:12-13 Amplified.

THIS CHRISTMAS – THIS DECEMBER – MAKE IT YOUR FAMILY TIME: MAY YOU KNOW THE LOVE OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS I PRAY!

“For this CAUSE I bow my KNEES unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 of whom the whole FAMILY in HEAVEN and EARTH is NAMED . . . 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 may be ABLE to COMPREHEND with ALL saints what is the BREATH, and LENGHT, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 AND TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, WHICH PASSETH (TRANSCENDS AND SURPASSES) KNOWLEDGE (HUMAN SENSES), THAT YE MIGHT BE FILLED WITH ALL THE FULNESS OF GOD . . .” Ephesians 3:14-21

CHRISTMAS is a bonding time for families and those we care about. And one gracious and graceful great thing about Christmas and THIS CHRISTMAS – it’s a time to SETTLE SCORES, FORGIVE and JUSTIFY others, EMBRACE and STRENGTHEN relationships. Although in some homes and families, it’s the opposite today and even now – for them it’s a time for in-fighting, counting wrongs, blames, creating more confusion, retaliation and revenge and such like. These various failures in human limitations ought not to be so any more – simply because of the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus in us today and always should be; and this Love of God in Christ Jesus in us, thus SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS our human (Sense) KNOWLEDGE;  and this Love of God in Christ Jesus has been shed and showed in our hearts by the Holy Spirit that is given to us, and that indwells in us also, in all of God’s redemption, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“And HOPE maketh not ASHAMED; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth His LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8.

I therefore PRAY as Apostle Paul for you today and even now – that you may KNOW and UNDERSTAND the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus that SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS your human concept of five senses KNOWLEDGE through God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus that concerns you, family and those you care about. May this love of God captivates you to give the needed leverage and enabling for you to enjoy the FULNESS of God in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Make THIS CHRISTMAS your NEW DAY and NEW BEGINNING of expressing daily the LOVE of GOD in CHRIST JESUS which SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS your human five senses KNOWLEDGE concept in all you do to self, family, colleagues and your fellow human beings and mankind.

I WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS – AND A BLESSED CELEBRATION AND COMMEMORATION OF GOD’S LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN.

“When a MAN’S WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“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.

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS: “The WORD” Became FLESH

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS: “The WORD” Became FLESH – HUMAN – And The ANSWER To Your QUEST And All MANKIND!

“. . . 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 . . . 17 For the LAW was given by Moses, but GRACE and TRUTH came by Jesus Christ” John 1:1-5, 14, 17.

This Christmas is all about “The WORD” that became FLESH – HUMAN, whose FULLNESS is of Grace and Truth. And an ANSWER to ALL our QUEST in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

The world today longs for GRACE and TRUTH in our society, which comes purely and can come only genuinely from “The WORD” that became flesh. God spoke “The WORD”, The WORD was received and born in human flesh – humanity. “The WORD” is Christ – the Messiah, Saviour, Deliverer – the REASON we do commemorate and celebrate this SEASON in this Christmas, in this December and for His REDEMPTION cause on earth to all mankind including you.

“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 3:16.

Faith on “The WORD” is all you need, to turn your TEST story to TESTIMONY, your SCARCITY to PLENTY, your FAILURE to SUCCESS, your MESS to MESSAGE,  your SETBACK to STEPPING STONE, your DISAPPOINTMENT to APPOINTMENT, the said SICKNESS and DISEASE to HEALING, HEALTH and WHOLENESS, and many more such like. In summary the ANSWER to your QUEST to have a meaningful, colourful, purposeful and fulfilling life is in the WORD – Jesus the Christ.

“The WORD” is Him – Christ Jesus personified, who is our Saviour King and Lord. He’s our Emmanuel – The God WITH us, IN us and FOR us; the God that DWELLS with us in everyway. “The WORD” is your witness, record and embodiment in heavens unity in Trinity to certify the divine purpose on earth.

Therefore, this CHRISTMAS, as you commemorate and celebrate “The WORD” through faith in Him, may your desire be made manifest in the flesh, that is, comes to reality and fruition; and becomes tangible, reachable, touchable, loveable, liveable, and incarnate.

The WORD is all you need to ANSWER that QUEST that has defiled everything mortal in your life and godly living.

I pray you every grace, blessing and speed in The WORD. Amen.

“Beloved, BELIEVE not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many FALSE prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that CONFESSETH that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH is of God: 3 and every spirit that CONFESSETH NOT that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH is not of God: and this is that spirit of ANTICHRIST, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now ALREADY is it in the world” 1 John 4:1-3

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS: GOD SENT HIS WORD WITH A MISSION!

I make an emboldened stand, saying that God’s WORD, that was made manifest to us in the FLESH – Humanity – was sent to us intentionally. His WORD came for a mission, that’s to say, there was a PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUITS for the Christmas story. And that makes it more than the shopping – for there’s a REASON for the SEASON.

The WORD that became HIM, that’s FLESH – HUMAN [HUMANITY], was sent to do two primary work:

** To HEAL the triune-man: spirit, soul and body. – (spiritual, physical, emotional, social, mental and such like).

** To SEEK, SAVE and DELIVER mankind from every act of destruction either as of sin, man-made, satanic and cohorts, and/or of natural causes thereby giving freedom from their effects, which are: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH.

“For the Son of man is COME to SEEK and to SAVE that which was LOST” Luke 19:10.

This Christmas, lay hold to your healing, Salvation and deliverance. Don’t just eat, drink and exchange gift and stop there, when there are cases that demands complete wholeness of healing and deliverance that’s hanging over you.

Take God by His WORD in faith, in this season of this Christmas, and receive your complete wholeness in – Healing, Salvation, Deliverance and such like – in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

And say therefore to you in – THIS CHRISTMAS – may you be HEALED and be WHOLE in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

I pray you have a glorious and gracious commemoration and celebration. I pray your Christmas would be whole, complete and not in part.

THIS DECEMBER – THIS CHRISTMAS: FIND JOY AND HAPPINESS IN THE EYES OF THE CHILDREN!

This is my CHRISTMAS – it’s found in the eyes of GRANDCHILDREN – The BEAM of CHRISTMAS LOVE and STORIES – are always BORN in their hearts and smiling faces.

Are you in worries and trouble of any sorts in this Christmas, see love in face of the child and children about you. They make the fulness of the JOY and HAPPINESS about us.

This is BLESSEDNESS – when you become in heart as a little child today – in humility and grace – to approach this Christmas SEASON with the graciousness and gracefulness of the REASON, as found in the eyes of children.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the GREATEST in the kingdom of heaven? 2 And Jesus called a little CHILD unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3 and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be CONVERTED, and BECOME as LITTLE CHILDREN, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall HUMBLE himself as this LITTLE CHILD, the same is GREATEST in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoso shall RECEIVE one such LITTLE CHILD in my name RECEIVETH me” Matthew 18:1-5.

“And the angel said unto them, FEAR NOT: for, behold, I bring you GOOD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY, which shall be to all people. 11 For unto you is BORN THIS DAY in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host PRAISING God, and saying, 14 GLORY to God in the highest, and on earth PEACE, GOOD WILL toward men” Luke 2:10-14.

THIS CHRISTMAS – THIS DECEMBER: LET JESUS THE CHRIST AND LORD –  BE BORN IN YOUR HEART!

“All the ENDS of the WORLD shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the NATIONS shall WORSHIP before thee. 28 For the KINGDOM is the Lord’s: and HE is the GOVERNOR among the NATIONS. 29 All they that be fat upon EARTH shall eat and WORSHIP: all they that go DOWN to the DUST shall BOW before him: and none can keep ALIVE his own soul.” Psalms 22:27-29.

When I go to bed almost in every evening night falls and say my benediction in committing and rededicating my being and well-being into the hands of my uncreated creator Father God, I feel so assured and insured that whatever happened in the midst of my sleep, that He who holds the world and my being in the hollow of His hands will make it all good. Revelation 4:11; Isaiah 45:11-12; Isaiah 49:16.

And it’s with the same attitude of gratitude, that I take on to live purposefully and meaningfully to fulfill His pleasure, glory and majesty; for when I wake up in the morning to behold the brand new dawn day given to me, to explore by my same unchanging changer God without struggle, fear and worries in the midst of a turbulent and unpredictable world, it’s all for the decision I made years ago. Hence, there’s the daily hope of living in grace and BLESSEDNESS in stress-less and sweat-less sphere in spite of the enormous daily task worth not mentioning here.

So, ALL these sleeping and waking up as described above, are ONLY possible because I have resolved the most important factor given freely to all mankind by the creator Himself (Psalms 24:1; Revelation 4:11). This I did over four decades ago, to make JESUS, the CHRIST to be both my Saviour and Lord in every facet of my being for the good and goodness of my well being.

So today, this day, in this December of the commemoration and celebration of Christmas, in honour of the birth of Jesus the Christ and Lord, I plead with you to make Him Jesus the Christ, your personal SAVIOUR and LORD in all that pertains to doing life and living godly. Then you can actual God’s meaningful purpose and fulfilment without prejudice.

THIS CHRISTMAS – IN SHARING GIFT

By Leave a Comment

THIS CHRISTMAS – IN SHARING GIFT: SHARE IN ALL – IN LOVE!

This CHRISTMAS, in all your SHARING, SHARE in LOVE. The best, ultimate of all gift is SALVATION to friends, family and love ones. Every gift may fade away with time and circumstances, but SALVATION of a loved one can never fade away – for love doesn’t fade or fail. [1 Corinthians 13].

The GRACE that brings Salvation to all men, is bonded in the Christmas LOVE. Extend such love to friends and love ones in your Christmas gift sharing.

Let the act to share IN LOVE be supreme to the sharing by the cost of the gift. Value gift not just by the cost only, but by the spirit of love in the gift. Remember the widows mite. It may be the more honourable thing for the Lord to unveil you His blessings.

In this year CHRISTMAS, make your Christmas a delight and not a burden – by Sharing LOVE . . . Sharing FAITH . . . Sharing HOPE . . . Sharing GIFT And Sharing GOODWILL To OTHERS beyond you in LOVE!.

SELFISHNESS makes Christmas a BURDEN but LOVE makes Christmas an INDESCRIBABLE celebration and commemoration of PEACE, HOPE, FAITH, JOY and GOODWILL.

I pray you with God’s grace and blessings.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“And now abide FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, these three; but the GREATEST of these is Love” 1 Corinthians 13:13.

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers, 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, LABOR OF LOVE, and PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father, 4 knowing, beloved brethren, your election by God” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-4.

“Let LOVE be without HYPOCRISY. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 Be KINDLY affectionate to one another with BROTHERLY LOVE, in honor giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 distributing to the needs of the saints, GIVEN TO HOSPITALITY” Romans 12:9-13.

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS AND THE CHURCH SERVICES

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER . . . THIS CHRISTMAS AND THE CHURCH SERVICES: ENDEAVOUR TO FIND ONE NEAR YOU AND ATTEND!

**What is CHRISTMAS – is the yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s LOVE to mankind in the BIRTH of our – Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus – and His REDEMPTION CAUSE on earth for all mankind.

**What is the CHURCH – is the voluntary gathering of people to FELLOWSHIP to enhance their common RELATIONSHIP in Christ Jesus with each other – and to WORSHIP and SERVE God WORTHILY and ACCEPTABLY – under a designated Shepherd – Pastor.

The service in the Church gathering highlights the CHRISTMAS. In the MORNING service or at START of service – it is called the GATHERING or COMING TOGETHER – otherwise THE MASS Service – the Celebration and Commemoration [Hebrews 10:24-25]; while in the EVENING gathering or at CLOSING of service it is called BENEDICTION – a time of PROFESSING, DECLARATION, PROCLAMATION and ANNOUNCING to the FAITH in Christ Jesus stead – which is the act of PRAYER in endorsing and invoking the divine Trinity. And that is ascribed in this scriptural context and injunctions in terms:

“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.

It’s good to know in the scriptural context and injunctions in terms are of the 2 Corinthians 13:14, what it thus signifies:

* The GRACE – which is, the ACTS of Christ;

* The LOVE – which is The ACTS of the Father God; and

* The COMMUNION (Fellowship) – which is The ACTS of the Holy Spirit.

These BENEDICTION ACTS are often said after this manner occasionally at most Churches gatherings as a declaration, affirmation, and announcement:

“May the GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ, the LOVE of God and the COMMUNION of the Holy Spirit be with you” and I add this phrase to it – and those you care about – even as in this Christmas. Amen.

I therefore employ you to endeavour to attend to the CHURCH GATHERING services near you if there’s an opening of their door of services on Christmas day. Absenteeism is not an option if know full well that:

“SELFISHNESS makes CHRISTMAS a burden while LOVE makes CHRISTMAS an INDESCRIBABLE celebration and commemoration of PEACE, HOPE, FAITH, JOY and GOODWILL to all mankind” Amen.

Blessed regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And let us CONSIDER one another to PROVOKE unto LOVE and to GOOD WORKS: 25 not FORSAKING the ASSEMBLING of ourselves together, as the MANNER of some is; but EXHORTING one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25.

“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.

The Christmas REASON

The Christmas REASON: The Expression SEASON of God’s LOVE to HUMANITY – in RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP!

“God is faithful, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there PRAYED (FELLOWSHIP)” Mark 1:35/Emphasis Mine.

This December . . . and in This Christmas, the season is more than just celebrations and commemoration season. It’s about you enacting and authenticating your LOVE to God as He does toward you in Christ Jesus in order for you to fulfill your life given purpose in Him.

“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.

“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.

And I know, that, by the virtue of birth, my wonderful children have an awesome RELATIONSHIP with me; but if any is to enjoy a MORE THAN the usual, normal and generalised BLESSEDNESS beyond the right to birth-marked, they have to engage in a constant FELLOWSHIP to know and understand the path to it – and that path undertaking, it’s their RESPONSIBILITY to make it happen.

Much more in the same scenario, by virtue of God’s love in Christ Jesus’ we obtain RELATIONSHIP in our being born of God (comely called Born Again). But if we are to enjoy the fullness of God, we must endeavour to explore the FELLOWSHIP decorum with Him in Christ Jesus stead. For Lord and Savour Jesus Christ, though He’s God’s son in relationship, has to learn OBEDIENCE through FELLOWSHIP in same scenario in order to obtaining of God all it takes to be, while in humanity as us today.

“. . . 5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. 6 As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. 7 Who in the DAYS of his FLESH [HUMANITY], when he had OFFERED up PRAYERS [FELLOWSHIP] and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to SAVE him from death, and was heard in that He FEARED [REVEREND]; 8 though he were a Son, yet LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE by the things which he suffered; 9 and being made perfect, he became the AUTHOR of eternal salvation unto all them that OBEY him; 10 CALLED of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec” Hebrews 5:1-10/Emphasis Mine.

“God is faithful, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there PRAYED (FELLOWSHIP)” Mark 1:35/Emphasis Mine.

Adam lost his FELLOWSHIP at Eden and it cost him dearly for all humanity at Eden as we know. Jesus in humanity maximise His FELLOWSHIP in His humanity and He made all the difference as we know it for the good of all humanity too.

Hence Month December and this Christmas is not about Church or special programs and busy prayer meetings and schedules, but how much of FELLOWSHIP you are having and engaging with Father God personally. This is good and necessary, in order to enhance and boost your worth in Him and for Him. This is what ‘THIS CHRISTMAS’ in ‘THIS DECEMBER’ and ‘THIS DAY’ should be about – The REASON for the SEASON.

It is the FELLOWSHIP that strengthens RELATIONSHIP. Sin hinders the fellowship and in time destroys and erases the relationship as in Eden. Hence during this SEASON of Christmas, give room for the REASON, that is, God’s love in Christ Jesus in relationship for fellowship to count and account for you and your good.

Make time to be ‘ALONE WITH FATHER GOD’ and have your own ACQUAINTANCE with Him. For LOVE makes Christmas a gracious event while SELFISHNESS (SELF-CENTEREDNESS) makes it a burden and pain.

May you have an amazing Christmas in all you do I pray.

Every Blessing.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“God is faithful, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“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” 1 John 1:5-7.

“And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there PRAYED (FELLOWSHIP)” Mark 1:35/Emphasis Mine.

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Psalms 16:11).

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW creature (CREATION): old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (Emphasis Mine).

“But God FORBID that I should glory, SAVE in the CROSS of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is CRUCIFIED unto me, and I unto the world. 15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a NEW CREATURE. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God” Galatians 6:14-16.

“I am CRUCIFIED with Christ: nevertheless I LIVE; yet not I, but Christ LIVETH in me: and the LIFE which I now LIVE in the flesh I LIVE by the faith of the Son of God, who LOVED me, and GAVE himself for me. 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” Galatians 2:20-21.
