JESUS THE CHRIST: HE IS – THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS

By Leave a Comment

JESUS THE CHRIST: HE IS – THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS – BEING COMMEMORATED AND CELEBRATED THIS DECEMBER!

“Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST” Matthew 16:20.

CHRIST JESUS – He’s the REASON for the SEASON. He’s the reason for the commemoration and celebration. Outside Him there’s no authentic and genuine reason that can make the season to be efficacious.

For me, when you take Christ from ‘CHRISTMAS’ you have ‘MAS’ which means ‘MAN AT SELF’ while with Christ it means ‘MAN AT SUFFICIENCY’.

CHRISTMAS is a 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 the good and goodness of All mankind.

CHRIST means – The anointed one, The Messiah, The Saviour, The Redeemer and much more – The soon coming King; while the MASS means – to Celebrate, to observe and commemorate.

Therefore, in this Month DECEMBER, let us commemorate and celebrate Him, for He is indeed born in our hearts and in our being. His birth is the rebirth of:

*Peace and goodwill toward men

*Hope, Faith & Love for men

*Fellowship and Relationship

*Salvation for all mankind and more.

However, as wonderful as Christmas commemoration and celebration is, be it known that Christ is enthroned, and,

He is no longer:

* The babe in the manger

* The servant to death

* The limited one and

* The Christ on the Cross.

He’s now the:

* God on the throne

* Omnipotent- (unlimited, all powerful)

* Omnipresent – (ever present, everywhere the same time) and

* Omniscience (all knowing, all understanding and all wise).

May Christ be all above to you, this Day, this Christmas and this December. I pray you have a blessed celebration and commemoration in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name IMMANUEL” Isaiah 7:14.

“Now the BIRTH of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost . . . 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall SAVE his people from their sins . . . 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, God WITH us . . . 25 and knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS” Matthew 1:18-25.

“For unto us a CHILD is BORN, unto us a SON is GIVEN: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this” Isaiah 9:6-7.

“When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the SON OF MAN am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the CHRIST, the Son of the living God . . . 20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST” Matthew 16:13-20.

2ND RULE:

You shall not over BURDEN the Sale Clerk with your worries – Matthew 6:25-34 (note especially vs. 33 – the need to seek right).

We need not let the worry of gifts – Shoes, games, transport, groceries, clothing’s, jewelleries and other forms of shopping and shoppers, to weigh us down and get us into debt. Buy today for nothing to Pay in WORRIES with a heavy hearts and burden later.

3RD RULE:

You shall GIVE yourself with your gift – 2 Corinthians 8:1-5; 2 Corinthians 9:7-11; Psalm 49:6-9.

Give God your heart before your material gains and gifts: Give me your heart, the Lord requires first before anything. Your life is worth to God than your gift.

4TH RULE:

You shall not VALUE gift by their cost – Luke 21:1-5; Matthew 2:11.

The least expensive gift may speak LOVE and with great hearts than the costly.

5TH RULE:

You shall not LEAVE (keep) Christ outside Christmas – Matthew 2:13.

Joseph was with Christ on and in Christmas mood hence he could hear God of the enemy

plan – King Herod’s – against baby Jesus. Don’t let Christmas be used for evil work to you and your family.

6TH RULE:

You shall not ALLOW Father Christmas to replace Christ in your heart and that of your family – Ephesians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:27; Luke 2:11.

Christmas is a very good time to extend God’s love to you to the needy around you. For the have not will always be among us the scriptures says – Deuteronomy 15:11; Mark 14:7.

8TH RULE:

You shall not NEGLECT your Church of gathering for Fellowship and Worship – Hebrews 10:25.

What is the Church? It is the voluntarily gathering of people to fellowship with one another and to worship God in spirit and truth. The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the morning it is called MASS – Celebration and Commemoration while in the evening – it is called BENEDICTION.

9TH RULE:

YOU NEED TO ENQUIRE WISELY WHILE DOING LIFE

YOU NEED TO ENQUIRE WISELY WHILE DOING LIFE: KNOWING IT’S SCRIPTURALLY UNWISE TO SAY – YESTERDAY IS BETTER THAN TODAY!

“Jesus Christ THE SAME yesterday, and to day, and for ever” Hebrews 13:8.

It’s Scripturally WISE to say that BETTER is TODAY Than BEFORE – That’s Wisdom in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS; and it’s Scripturally UNWISE to say YESTERDAY is BETTER than TODAY and probably TOMORROW.

“SAY NOT thou, What is the CAUSE that the FORMER days were BETTER than these? for thou dost not ENQUIRE WISELY concerning this” Ecclesiastes 7:10

One great error of errors, it’s when you pray or have prayed for an expectation of God to come to fruition and you go contradicting your expectations – by allowing yourself to be RULED afterwards by what your SENSES [see, hear, smell, taste, feel/touch]  or by what the CIRCUMSTANCES around present before you; and that’s when you are not being RULED and EARNESTLY garrison by what you wants to see happen in the LIGHT of God’s WORD, in His grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. You need to know for sure and certainly, that between WHEN YOU PRAY to God and an ANSWER is come to fruition, your SENSE of focus in the WORD of GRACE and FAITH is very important. Let the gracious WORDS proceeds out of your mouth in FAITH in Christ Jesus stead. Amen

“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 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.

As long as you are focusing and affirming in statements of what you are SENSING and or by the CIRCUMSTANCES before you PRAYED, you can NEVER have what you wants from Father God in Christ. Simply for the truth that a double minded person can’t receive anything from God. 

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, NOTHING WAVERING. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For LET NOT that man think that he shall RECEIVE any thing of the Lord. 8 A DOUBLE MINDED man is UNSTABLE in all his ways” James 1:2-8.

And when you stay ASSURED, STEADFAST and in CONFIDENCE by the WORD of GRACE and FAITH, focusing on what you WANTS to see of God, and not ruled and governed by what you are sensing, know for a certainty, that, there’s no force known and unknown that will be able to stop your request from not coming to fruition and in reality in your God as you have PRAYED. For the ministering spirit, the angelic hosts will perfectly deliver your God GIVEN goods into your hands when they are ASSURED of you acting by the word of God. For they only harkens to the voice of God’s WORD.

“For SURELY there is AN END; and thine EXPECTATION shall NOT be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:18.

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that DO His commandments, HEARKENING unto the VOICE OF HIS WORD” Psalms 103:20.

“And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire . . . 14 Are they not all MINISTERING spirits, sent forth to MINISTER for them who shall be HEIRS of salvation?” Hebrews 1:7, 14.

And on the contrary, what happens when you go thinking and believing that your FORMER days are BETTER than your TODAY and in some cases that your future will be in delusion, you keep at bay the working of God’s WORD on your behalf. Such acts of thinking makes one unwise in receiving anything from God.

When one begin to say that their today is  worst than their before you are not giving the heavens the opportunity to interfere in solving your earthly matters. Hence such attitude is considered an UNWISE reasoning in the kingdom operations to receive from God. For your attitude will unveil your altitudes in gratitude. You need to know full well that God is RICH to all who calls upon Him and that stays in steadfastness by FAITH on His WORD irrespective of the “IF” and “BUT” about them.

“For the scripture saith, Whosoever BELIEVETH on him shall NOT be ASHAMED. 12 For there is NO DIFFERENCE between the Jew and the Greek: for the SAME Lord over all is RICH unto all that CALL upon him. 13 For WHOSOEVER shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED” Romans 10:11-13.

“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.

YOUR FOCUS AND YOUR WORDS ARE THE SEED THAT DEFINES YOUR FAITH IN GRACE FOR YOUR NOW, TODAY AND TOMORROW.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Surely OPPRESSION maketh a WISE man mad; and a GIFT (BRIBE) destroyeth (CORRUPTS) the (GOOD JUDGEMENT OF THE) HEART. 8 BETTER is the END of a thing than the BEGINNING thereof: and the patient in spirit is BETTER than the proud in spirit. 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for ANGER resteth in the BOSOM of fools. 10 SAY NOT thou, What is the cause that the FORMER days were BETTER than these? for thou dost not ENQUIRE WISELY concerning this” Ecclesiastes 7:7-10 Emphasis Mine.

“For I say, through the GRACE given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man THE MEASURE OF FAITH” Romans 12:3.

“But unto every one of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE OF THE GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH INTO THIS GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“And this is the CONFIDENCE that we have in him, that, if we ASK ANY THING according to HIS WILL, he HEARETH us: 15 and if we KNOW that he HEAR us, WHATSOEVER WE ASK, we KNOW that we have the PETITIONS that we DESIRED of him” 1 John 5:14-15.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION (CONFESSION, DECLARATION, AFFIRMATION, ANNOUNCING) of our FAITH without wavering; (for he is FAITHFUL that PROMISED)” Hebrews 10:23.

“Seeing then that we have a GREAT high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, LET US HOLD FAST OUR PROFESSION (CONFESSION, DECLARATION, AFFIRMATION, ANNOUNCING). 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come BOLDLY unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” Hebrews 4:14-16.

DECEMBER – IT’S YOUR FREEDOM CHRISTMAS IN JESUS THE CHRIST

By Leave a Comment

THIS DECEMBER – IT’S YOUR FREEDOM CHRISTMAS IN JESUS THE CHRIST: TO END – THE SIN CONSCIOUSNESS AND TO START UP – THE RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS!

“It was for this FREEDOM that Christ set us FREE [completely liberating us]; therefore keep STANDING firm and do not be SUBJECT again to a YOKE OF SLAVERY [which you once removed] . . . 13 For you, my brothers, were CALLED TO FREEDOM; only DO NOT LET YOUR FREEDOM become an opportunity for the SINFUL NATURE (worldliness, selfishness), but through LOVE SERVE and SEEK the best for one another” Galatians 5:1, 13/Amplified.

No More SIN FISHING – FOR YOU ARE GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS In Christ Jesus. Therefore, know of a TRUTH, that the BIRTH of JESUS the CHRIST is to lay the foundation to the end of SIN CONSCIOUSNESS and to start up the NEW CREATION mandate of RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS in Him as it’s written:

“For Christ is the END of the law for RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that BELIEVETH” Romans 10:4.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION: OLD THINGS are PASSED AWAY; behold, all things are BECOME NEW . . . 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 5:17, 21.

It’s time to live FREE  by THIS DECEMBER, THIS CHRISTMAS and even now, for your FREEDOM time is come in EMMANUEL Birth, which is – JESUS THE CHRIST. Matthew 16:20.

“Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was JESUS THE CHRIST”

The REASON for the SEASON of Christmas commemoration and celebration, is all about God’s LOVE in demonstration through the BIRTH of Jesus the Christ. It’s not to activate SIN or make SIN CONSCIOUSNESS, meaning it’s not to make you GUILTY again and again, but to give LOVE and make us receive God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus, because God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus is STRONGER than the stings and pangs of SIN.

Hence the scriptures of Micah says God had buried our inequities under the SEA of forgetfulness and I say to you – NO FISHĪNG or NO MORE FISHING! Meaning, don’t go fishing what God has forgiven you of, no matter the gravity of it. Don’t go feeling guilty with memory of events that had happened. No fishing! This is your freedom Christmas.

“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 DELIGHTEH 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.

Don’t go and visit place or places of reminder, even if it is called a Church. Go to a place or places where you are WELCOME and RECEIVE; and the LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus is celebrated to enhance your FREEDOM and REDEMPTION in Him.

Living in SIN CONSCIOUSNESS will invite the enemy and that will rob you of your worth and dignity especially during this period of expressing true LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS to fellow men because of Christ.

“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.

Let LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS possess your day, that’s what makes Christmas worth expressing and  everything. This CHRISTMAS is about God’s LOVE and your access to FREEDOM in Christ and not to LIVE IN GUILT anymore.

GOD’S GRACE AND BLESSINGS.

“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.

“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 [FREEDOM]; only use not LIBERTY [FREEDOM] for an occasion to the flesh, but by LOVE SERVE one another. 14 For all THE LAW IS FULFILLED IN ONE WORD, even in this; Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself” Galatians 5:6, 13-14.

THERE’S MORE TO PRAYER AND TO – PRAYING AND FASTING

By Leave a Comment

THERE’S MORE TO PRAYER AND TO – PRAYING AND FASTING: PRAYER IS RELATIONSHIP ENHANCED BY FELLOWSHIP!

“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 [Ephesians 1:3, 20; Ephesians 2:6].

Sometimes People talk and almost boast on how much they do fast or have fasted and prayed and praying as to qualify or earn them somehow a spiritual status of greatness; more especially as we are about turning into a new year, some will set days or weeks or months as if they are in a comparable state to prove something. Forgetting that they who go comparing themselves for whatever reason in this Kingdom causes are not Scripturally wise – meaning are foolish, ignorant and immature for such act of comparison intent as written:

“For we DARE not make ourselves of the NUMBER, or COMPARE ourselves with some that COMMEND themselves: but they MEASURING themselves by themselves, and COMPARING themselves among themselves, ARE NOT WISE” 2 Corinthians 10:12.

Prayer or praying and fasting is a vitality and necessity for every Christian faith believer in Christ Jesus of which I acclaimed to belong. I love to vitalise my faith through all that, but as important as any or both vitalities and necessities are, they are void if the objective is not primarily about FELLOWSHIP with God, in order to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God as a result of being born of God and for the good and goodness of God’s cause on earth for mankind in Christ Jesus stead.

“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” Mark 1:35.

And to engage in an effective PRAYERS and probably with FASTING in FELLOWSHIP to enhance RELATIONSHIP with God for any cause, there’s the need to live a life of FORGIVENESS and FORGETFULNESS to necessitate them. Many may say they can or may FORGIVE but can’t possibly FORGET. Can you imagine God, ONLY FORGIVING you of your shortfalls and NOT FORGETTING about it? and you want to claim to live or be living in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead without such knowing and understanding as God’s offspring?

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, WHEN YE PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye SHALL HAVE them.  25 And WHEN YE STAND PRAYING, FORGIVE, if ye have OUGHT AGAINST ANY: that your Father also which is in heaven may FORGIVE you your TRESPASSES.  26 But if ye DO NOT FORGIVE, neither will your Father which is in heaven FORGIVE YOUR TRESPASSES” Mark 11:24-26.

And one needs to know that as God is in Christ Jesus, so ARE we in this world, in order to carry on His GOSPEL mandate without an “IF and BUT” baggages – 1 John 4:17-18 [John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5]. This then indicates that there’s therefore something more of a FOUNDATION and FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES we need to uphold in grace by faith, in order to enhance PRAYERS or PRAYING and FASTING. Thus, there is more to PRAYERS or PRAYING and FASTING toward our – RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP – which are in twine with FORGIVENESS and FORGETFULNESS. Otherwise, prayer will be UNANSWERED and one is only a noise maker of self-gratification and in deceptions, no matter how much you acclaimed to prayers or prayer and fasting.

For PRAYER or PRAYING AND FASTING to be effectual – productive and results oriented, it must have the FOUNDATION and FUNDAMENTAL principles called a RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus stead and enhanced through FELLOWSHIP accordingly. That’s the basic principle that any one who intends to reach out to God must endeavour to establish for themselves otherwise middle men cohorts in the name of God with titles and entitlements, will take advantage of such vulnerability and ignorance, and become a god and wants to do god to such an individual which is unscriptural and unfounded in the Christian FAITH foundation and fundamental, which justification and access by faith is only of – REPENTANCE toward God and FAITH toward Christ Jesus. Amen. [Acts 20:20-21].

“And how I KEPT BACK NOTHING that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have SHEWED you, and have TAUGHT you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and REJOICE in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

And to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus Christ, the act of communion – FELLOWSHIP, is a necessity and vitality for one to fulfill PURPOSE with God. [1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10]. The act of FELLOWSHIP is to enhance RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus stead, and this act to enhance is only possible with a spirited heart of forgiving (FORGIVENESS) and forgetting (FORGETFULNESS) on the human part toward God in Christ Jesus, toward self and toward others. You can’t get yourself entangle with unforgiveness and unforgettable attitude to God, to self and to others and wants to enjoy God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. For it’s upon this principle aforementioned, that PRAYERS – PRAYING AND FASTING – act can be of EFFECTUAL – productive and result oriented with the peace, assurance that transcends and surpasses human comprehension and understanding. [Mark 11:20-26; Matthew 5:38-48; James 5:13-18, Philippians 4:6-7. Ephesians 3:14-20].

I pray that you receive the grace for an effectual and efficient FELLOWSHIP and RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus stead, that will enhanced your PRAYER life through the Spirit of forgiveness and forgetfulness with – God, Self and others –  in Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

BE EMBOLDENED: TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – NO MATTER WHAT!

“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

Beloved in Christ – no matter what’s going on in your life today, I challenge you to always stand EMBOLDENED; and to TAKE and MAKE – A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – ON and FOR your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. A questioning came up in Luke 4:22, when Jesus Christ takes a stand to speak GRACIOUS WORDS that was contrary in His days of curses and swearing and such like as we see in our day to day from many in denominationised and sectarianism settings as – “return to sender”, “fire and thunder”, and such like. We must take a STAND on the GRACE wherein we are JUSTIFIED BY FAITH and have ACCESS BY FAITH toward God in Christ Jesus, instead of the onward and upward trajectory of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation that appears and appeals to people vulnerability and quest that are unscriptural for the New Creation Testament.

“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.

Save yourself from every form of questioning on your JUSTIFICATION in REDEMPTION in Christ JESUS, and from SIN and it’s effect in terms of these: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH, by taking a STAND UP on your FAITH in GRACE against the enemy and cohorts in order to keep them at bay; and go on holding forth steadfastly the AFFIRMATION of your Faith in Christ Jesus stead, against all odds. Amen.

Be EMBOLDENED to take a FAITH STAND in GRACE on the WORD as our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. He did take His STAND to FULFIL Father God PURPOSE in His humanity AGAINST all three odds suggestive questionnaire that was thrown on Him, by the ENEMY satan as by his COHORTS in other places, by answering him satan in all – IT’S WRITTEN. Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-13. I PRAY you know how to say to the ENEMY and COHORTS – it’s WRITTEN too. 1 Peter 5:8-12.

Let none keep you on the low or down by any means – to bring back the memory of sin, sinful nature, setback, failures and defeat and such like. In Christ Jesus you are PRICELESS; and have an awesome, fabulous and gorgeous WORTH in grace.

Your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus is a DID-DONE-DEED – Period! STAND ON it And FOR it daily – no matter what. Be steadfast and steadily STANDING ON your REDEMPTION GROUND; and to keep STANDING AGAINST any contrary. Meaning be more CONSCIOUSNESS of who YOU ARE in CHRIST JESUS, than of what SATAN and COHORTS are about you in SIN and FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS. When you give the enemy and cohorts NO ATTENTION, they will give you NO DIRECTION to travel along. So, don’t give them any form of OXYGEN to breath around your redemption stand in grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

DON’T BE A WALK OVER BELIEVER BY ANYONE OR ANYTHING – RATHER – BE EMBOLDENED TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR BELIEVE – NO MATTER WHAT. For in Christ Jesus you ARE – TRIUMPHANT, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER AND MORE THAN CONQUERORS – all the way. And you –  ARE REDEEMED, BEING REDEEMED AND SHALL BE REDEEMED – in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Have A Blessed Day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION of our FAITH without WAVERING; (for he is FAITHFUL that promised;)” Hebrews 10:23.

“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, STRENGHTEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-12.

“Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be TEMPTED OF THE DEVIL. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when THE TEMPTER came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, IT IS WRITTEN, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 and saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: FOR IT IS WRITTEN, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him” Matthew 4:1-11 (Luke 4:1-13).

* 2ND WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not over BURDEN the Sale Clerk with your worries – Matthew 6:25-34 (note especially vs. 33 – the need to seek right).

We need not let the worry of gifts – Shoes, games, transport, groceries, clothing’s, jewelleries and other forms of shopping and shoppers, to weigh us down and get us into debt. You need to escape from the bondage of – BUY today for nothing to PAY in WORRIES and ANXIOUSNESS with a HEAVY HEARTS and BURDEN later – resulting and leading to depression.

The least expensive gift may speak LOVE and with great hearts than the costly.

* 8TH WISDOM NUGGETS DIGEST: You shall not NEGLECT your Church – the place of gathering for Fellowship, serve and Worship of God in Christ Jesus stead – Hebrews 10:25.

What is the Church? It is the voluntary gathering of people to FELLOWSHIP with one another in the LOVE of Christ, to SERVE God ACCEPTABLY and to WORSHIP God WORTHILY in spirit and truth. The service in the Church highlights the Christmas. In the morning it is called MASS – Celebration and Commemoration while in the evening – it is called BENEDICTION.

THIS MONTH DECEMBER: THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS

By Leave a Comment

THIS MONTH DECEMBER: THE CHRIST OF CHRISTMAS – IS BEING COMMEMORATED AND CELEBRATED!

“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.

CHRIST JESUS – He’s the reason for the season. He’s the reason for the celebration. Outside Him there’s no authentic and genuine reason that can be efficacious. And He’s THE WORD, the GOD MANIFEST in humanity. The WORD that’s able to do wholesome division and separation, of the human spirit, soul and body respectively; and all creatures are laid before to do life and live godly. He’s THE WORD that the Holy Angel’s harkened unto in life and grace. He’s the sent one of the trinity God, who came for humanity good and goodness and there’s NO CONTROVERSY of any sorts about Him..

For me, when you take Christ from ‘CHRISTMAS’ you have ‘MAS’ which means ‘MAN AT SELF’ while with Christ it means ‘MAN AT SUFFICIENCY’.

CHRISTMAS means – A yearly commemoration and Celebration of God’s love to mankind in the birth of our Lord & Saviour Christ Jesus and His cause on earth.

CHRIST means – The anointed one, Messiah, Saviour, The Redeemer and more; while MASS means – to Celebrate, to observe and commemorate.

Therefore, in this Month DECEMBER, let’s commemorate and celebrate Him for He is indeed born in our hearts and in our being. His birth is the rebirth of:

*Peace and goodwill toward men

*Hope, Faith & Love for men

*Fellowship and Relationship

*Salvation for all mankind and more.

However, as wonderful as Christmas commemoration and celebration is, be it known that Christ is enthroned. He’s no longer:

* The babe in the manger

* The servant to death

* The limited one and

* The Christ on the Cross.

He’s now the:

* God on the throne

* Omnipotent- (unlimited, all powerful)

* Omnipresent – (ever present, everywhere the same time) and

* Omniscience (all knowing, all understanding and all wise).

May Christ be all above to you, this Day, this Christmas and this month December. I pray you have a blessed celebration and commemoration.

“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 any thing 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 . . .14 And THE WORD was MADE FLESH (HUMAN), 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, 14 Emphasis Mine.

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, HEARKENING unto the voice of his WORD” Psalms 103:20.

“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.

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE OF THIS WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30.

“Howbeit we speak WISDOM among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES OF THIS WORLD, that come to nought: 7 but we speak THE WISDOM of God in a MYSTERY, even the HIDDEN WISDOM, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which NONE OF THE PRINCES OF THIS WORLD knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8.

BE A VOICE – GOD IS IN THE NEED FOR A VOICE NOT AN ECHO TO TODAY’S WORLD

By Leave a Comment

BE A VOICE – GOD IS IN THE NEED FOR A VOICE NOT AN ECHO TO TODAY’S WORLD: A VOICE OF – HOPE, FAITH AND LOVE – TO OUR WORLD OF DOING LIFE AND GODLY LIVING!

“For the EYES of the Lord RUN TO and FRO throughout the WHOLE EARTH, to SHEW HIMSELF STRONG in the BEHALF of them whose HEART is PERFECT toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars” 2 Chronicles 16:9.

God’s gracious EYES is going to and fro through the earth and in the business of making and raising a VOICE that will speak forth God’s WORD graciously and gracefully to the worlds WILDERNESS about them, with an ANSWER of the WORD of HOPE, FAITH and LOVE. And I dare on you to join the journey today to be God’s voice. But it known that God is not about in the ECHOES, CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKERS that are out there distorting or will distort the GOSPEL GOOD WILL for the worlds about them and their community.

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether IN PRETENCE, or IN TRUTH, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

For God is not the AUTHOR of CONFUSION; and where His Spirit is at work, there is LIBERATION, WHOLENESS, PEACE and FREEDOM; and He’s not involved in the CONFUSION that’s resulting to SCHISM and FALSEHOODS  today. God is not confused neither does He confused His own, so are His VOICE in use too.

“For God is not the AUTHOR OF CONFUSION, but of PEACE, as in all churches of the saints” 1 Corinthians 14:33.

“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, THERE IS LIBERTY [LIBERATION]” 2 Corinthians 3:17/Emphasis Mine.

“Wherefore I GIVE YOU TO UNDERSTAND, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus ACCURSED: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost” 1 Corinthians 12:3.

When people are in life VALLEYS and the MOUNTAINS and HILLS seems so high; and the life roads seems so ROUGH; and the path of life and path for life seems so CROOKED – what they need is a VOICE not the ECHOES, CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKERS to speak into their life. They need a VOICE, such that the Mountain and hills becomes a plain, the valley is exalted, the rough places becomes smooth and the crooked road path becomes straight. Isaiah 40:3-5.

And today I am asking you – Are you then a VOICE or one of the ECHOES, CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKERS? Won’t you LOVE to be God’s VOICE to the worlds wilderness about you, especially to your family, friends, colleagues and the community you surround yourself with? Examine yourself within and make it right today to be the Gospel GOOD WILL VOICE in use. Be a VOICE in today’s world and not one of the ECHOES, a CONFUSIONIST and NOISE MAKERS. God is in the making of a VOICE as you. A VOICE with NO VILE in the MOUTH, but GRACIOUS and PRECIOUS within. And If you intend to be God’s MOUTH piece, His earthly VOICE vessel, there is the need to empty the VILE from the PRECIOUS within. For out of the abundance of the hearts, a VOICE is known by the heavens to be His MOUTH piece.

“And all bare him 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.

THERE IS THE NEED FOR A VOICE NOT AN ECHO IN TODAY’S WORLD – ESPECIALLY IN THE WILDERNESS OF LIFE – BE THE GOSPEL VOICE – AN ANSWER TO YOUR WORLD.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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 6:45 (Matthew 12:34).

“And all bare him 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.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the PRECIOUS from the VILE, thou shalt BE AS MY MOUTH: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them” Jeremiah 15:19.

“For the EYES of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to SHEW HIMSELF STRONG in the BEHALF of them whose HEART is PERFECT toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars” 2 Chronicles 16:9.

“Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cæsar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judæa, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituræa and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene, 2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, THE WORD of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the WILDERNESS. 3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins; 4 as it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The VOICE of one crying in the WILDERNESS, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 5 Every VALLEY shall be FILLED, and every MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be brought LOW; and the CROOKED shall be made STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH ways shall be made SMOOTH; 6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God” Luke 3:1-6.

“The VOICE of him that crieth in THE WILDERNESS, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and every MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be made LOW: and the CROOKED shall be made STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH places PLAIN: 5 and the GLORY of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and all flesh shall see it together: for the MOUTH of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 40:3-5.
