BLESSED REDEMPTION – EQUIPPING HIS CHURCH

BLESSED REDEMPTION – EQUIPPING HIS CHURCH: HE GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS TO MEN!

Father God in Christ Jesus, GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to PERFECT – MATURE, COMPLETE, MAKE WHOLE AND FULNESS –  His people spiritually as found but not limited, in the scriptures of Ephesians 4:7-16. These MINISTERIAL GIFTS are: APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS and TEACHERS and such like as may be found in the Holy Writ. Romans 12:1-8; 1 Corinthians 12:28-31.

I want you to KNOW and UNDERSTAND for sure that he didn’t give His MINISTERIAL GIFTS to LEGISLATE spirituality to his Church in Christ Jesus stead. For he has GIVEN the HOLY SPIRIT to HELP His Church to ENACT, AUTHENTICATE and ENSURE His WORD that comes by the GIVEN ministerial gifts in His love to PERFECT – MATURE, COMPLETE, MAKE WHOLE AND FULNESS – His Church in His KINGDOM CAUSE and PURPOSE. Romans 5:5; 2 Corinthians 1:21-22; 2 Corinthians 5:5. Hence, none should be CONFUSED or LORD-OVER in any form of LEGISLATION in the name of spirituality in Christ Jesus, which leads to BONDAGES, RELIGIOUS DOGMAS, MAKE-BELIEVE and FALSEHOODS DOCTRINES that becomes a will-worship of men traditions, thereby making the WORD of God of no effects. Colossians 2:1-23; Mark 7:7-9; Matthew 15:5-9.

In COURSE and CAUSE of our PASSOVER, our Saviour-King and Lord – Jesus Christ, did not only RECEIVED GIFTS for us in His REDEMPTION DEED, He also GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to us, to enhance and enable the building up to maturity and perfection of His Church, in fulfilment to God’s eternal PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUITS.

For in Christ Jesus we ARE REDEEMED, we ARE BEING REDEEMED and we SHALL BE REDEEMED. It thus indicates the essence of us being GIVEN MINISTERIAL GIFTS to help us live meaningfully, purposefully And fulfilling as His Church to display His glory and wisdom on Earth.

Hence the need to know full well that when Jesus led captivity captive, He did not only RECEIVED GIFTS for men but He also GAVE GIFTS to men to fulfill Father God’s intent for His people in order for them to walk in KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of Him and to be secured from falsehood, adulteration, alteration and ignorance that the ENEMY and COHORTS of our FAITH in Christ Jesus will Pose. Meaning the GIVEN MINISTERIAL GIFTS was and is to EQUIP HIS CHURCH. Anything contrary is not just BONDAGE but FALSEHOOD and MAN-MADE MAKE BELIEVE leading to HELL. Hence I love this AUTHOR UNKNOWN publication writ, which reads:

“BUILDING the CHURCH merely on MIRACLES makes the Church a SUPERMARKET: people come and shop for their miracles and leave”

“If you BUILD the CHURCH merely on HEALING you make the Church a HOSPITAL: People come to be HEALED and leave”

“And if you BUILD the CHURCH merely on the PROPHETIC, you make the Church a PSYCHIC and DIVINATION CENTRE: People come to be READ and leave”

“BUT if you BUILD the Church PURELY as A WORD BASED CHURCH, every other thing people seek naturally just happens”

Hence, I would commend us to Apostle Paul counsel in the graciousnesss and gracefulness of the Scriptures as it’s written:

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is able to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

Dear friend, know for sure that Jesus GAVE MINISTERIAL GIFTS to FEED God’s people with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, thereby to EDIFY,  PERFECT and MATURE His people spiritually. So if you must go to a place of fellowship and worship, ENSURE your total well being in Christ is going to such in place or platform as found in the scriptures as written:

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

To authenticate the Church position, God EQUIP His CHURCH by giving MINISTERIAL GIFTS to MEN; this is in order to ensure and assure of the wholeness of our Blessed REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“Now he which STABLISHETH us with you in Christ, and hath ANOINTED us, is God; 22 who hath also Sealed us, and GIVEN the earnest of the Spirit in our HEARTS” 2 Corinthians 1:21-22.

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

“But unto every one of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the gift of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he LED captivity captive, and GAVE GIFTS UNTO MEN. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he GAVE some, APOSTLES; and some, PROPHETS; and some, EVANGELISTS; and some, PASTORS and TEACHERS; 12 for the PERFECTING of the saints, for the WORK of the ministry, for the EDIFYING of the body of Christ: 13 till we all come in the UNITY of the faith, and of the KNOWLEDGE of the Son of God, unto a PERFECT man, unto the MEASURE of the STATURE of the fulness of Christ: 14 that we henceforth be no MORE CHILDREN, TOSSED TO and FRO, and carried about with EVERY WIND of DOCTRINE, by the SLEIGHT of men, and CUNNING CRAFTINESS, whereby they lie in wait to DECEIVE; 15 but SPEAKING the TRUTH in LOVE, may GROW UP into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 from whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the EDIFYING of itself in LOVE” Ephesians 4:7-16.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST

By Leave a Comment

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You knowingly LOVE And WASH The Feet Of The BLACK SHEEP Staff Among You!

Only by God’s kind of LOVE – Agape, can one be calm and at peace, dine and wash the feet of the one you know so well had betrayed you to your enemies. Jesus loves all unto the end – for love thrive in the midst of fears, hatred and wickedness. 1 John 4:17-18. Love is the ONLY invincible trap, which I call – LOVE SET TRAP – to send your traitors, conspirators, betrayers and blackmailers to their own night of DARKNESS – effortless and without stress. Hence our REDEMPTION is perfectly GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL in the power of God’s LOVE.

Love was the trap set to get the DEVIL and COHORTS to enhance our REDEMPTION. Jesus loves all to the end. While he was LOVING His own, SATAN and COHORTS – Judas Iscariot, were at work, not knowing that it’s the Father God gate way and set traps to bring redemption into reality. Satan entered Judas, he made himself a VESSEL OF OFFENCE even in the midst of Christ Jesus offering and devoting love and sacrifice of service to them all as living examples to follow as His DISCIPLES.

Love Is And Was At Its Best, When God in Christ Jesus, knowingly Love And Wash The Feet Of The Black Sheep Staff Among His DISCIPLES – That’s Incredible!

It’s WORTH noting that LOVE is a double edge sword and it’s the only blow that satan and cohorts can’t DECIPHER when it matters. God’s final blow that’s indescribable and incomprehensible.

LOVE was God’s SET TRAP to make our REDEMPTION a reality and to give unprecedented silencing and unforgettable blow to SATAN and COHORTS. It’s time to make your FAITH effectual through LOVE – Galatians 5:6, 13-14.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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 2:8

“Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that OFFENCES WILL COME: but WOE unto him, through WHOM they come!” Luke 17:1.

“Herein is our LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is NO FEAR IN LOVE; but PERFECT LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: because FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18.

“Now before the FEAST OF THE PASSOVER, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, HE LOVED THEM UNTO THE END.  2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him;  3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;  4 HE RISETH FROM SUPPER, AND LAID ASIDE HIS GARMENTS; AND TOOK A TOWEL, AND GIRDED HIMSELF. 5 AFTER THAT HE POURETH WATER INTO A BASON, AND BEGAN TO WASH THE DISCIPLES’ FEET, AND TO WIPE THEM WITH THE TOWEL WHEREWITH HE WAS GIRDED.  6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?  7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.  8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.  9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.  10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, BUT NOT ALL.  11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean. 12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?  13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.  14 IF I THEN, YOUR LORD AND MASTER, HAVE WASHED YOUR FEET; YE ALSO OUGHT TO WASH ONE ANOTHER’S FEET.  15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.  16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.  17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. 18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.  19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.  20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. 21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.  22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.  23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.  24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.  25 He then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?  26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. AND WHEN HE HAD DIPPED THE SOP, HE GAVE IT TO JUDAS ISCARIOT, THE SON OF SIMON.  27 AND AFTER THE SOP SATAN ENTERED INTO HIM. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.  28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.  29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.  30 HE THEN HAVING RECEIVED THE SOP WENT IMMEDIATELY OUT: AND IT WAS NIGHT. 31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.  32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him” John 13:1-32.

THE GREATEST UNIFYING UNION

THE GREATEST UNIFYING UNION – THE HOLY COMMUNION: THE BREAD AND THE WINE – ENACTING THE PASSOVER!

Know for certainly, that the Holy Communion though powerful and gracious in the physical, it’s much more in the spiritual.

“. . . For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:  24 and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.  25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.  26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come . . .” 1 Corinthians 11: 17-34.

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY

By Leave a Comment

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY – NO – When It Matters: There’s Enabling GRACE For It!

We live in a time wherein most people have indebted themselves or found themselves at crossroads because they wants to DO God for others, to PLEASE planet earth, and MAKE everyone HAPPY at their inadequacies, to SAVE face from offending and to ENSURE their PRIDE in pain. I say Enough of that COWARDICE ACT of life.

Am here to let you know that it’s a high time to STOP making promises you CAN’T keep so that you can walk with your head up and shoulder high, and on your high heels, in grace and peace of mind. And it’s time to also let you know that it is not a crime or even a sin to say NO to a demand or gesture that wants you to do contrary to your FAITH capacity toward God in Christ Jesus stead; and much more, not been daunted when you say NO due to your inability to meet up with the statuesque of others demand and the prevalence in your set environment. Don’t be the people pleaser, be God’s pleaser towards people in order to save your breath, live healthily, otherwise when you fault, you are gone.

You don’t have to put yourself in a crossroad to swear or take an oath to prove your point of inability – you owe nobody an apology of what you can or cannot. Be truthful to yourself in God and be EMBOLDENED to say NO – NAY, to any unwelcome demand, just as you can say YES – YEA, in ALL matters of DOING life, this will help to enhance your today and tomorrow in GODLINESS without feeling guilty – 1 Timothy 4:7-8.

Lots of people have ended up in debt in order to –  save face, please others for no just cause and to fit into the demands of peers and statuesque of colleagues and friends. Beloved in Christ, we are not in a competitive world with any or yourself to make you belong. You are a child of God and of PURPOSE. Live within your FAITH and PURPOSE capacity.

It’s a more gracious  graceful sphere, to follow your God’s given PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in life, if you must found your true HAPPINESS and MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT in LIFE and GODLINESS. Ensure that you LIVE and DO LIFE as by the prompting of the Lord by His Holy Spirit in you, and through the WORD, in order to live free and be happy to help any where you can, without guilt and shame at any point.

May I enjoin you to know that the Scriptures indicates that the justified in Christ Jesus shall live by their own FAITH in God through Him. So let nobody makes you through pressure to be their ANSWER and especially to their so called DESTINY HELPER; to be the ANSWERS to their PRAYERS when you are not God, knowing you are unable to fit into that shoe as been pressured. Don’t LIVE someone else life of FAITH for them – it’s unscriptural. Worst still, is to do God for them. Our God is a jealous God, He does not share His person and GLORY with any – BE WARN.

Don’t DO God or be a godfather or answer in DEBT that’s my point. Not saying you can’t help out for people where you can, but to endeavour to say NO without feeling guilty or ashamed in meeting someone dear needs when you cannot. You need to live by your own FAITH as led by the Holy Spirit through God’s WORD in all capacity of life matters – Habakkuk 2:4. Live and help within your FAITH and not in any pressure to do anything and become incapacitated for others good. That’s unscriptural.

Saying NO should not be embarrassing at all just as saying YES should not be either. Don’t take a PARACETAMOL for someone else ACHES, otherwise you may start aching for your inadequacy for not been emboldened to have say NAY – NO, when you should have. Help where you could. Fit in where you could. Much more, LIVE AND DO LIFE BY YOUR FAITH.

Don’t REACT to pressure in anyway by any means; always RESPOND by the WORD in the Holy Spirit that’s GIVEN to you to do LIFE in LOVE by GRACE – Romans 5:5. You are RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE on your life decisions. Make goodly choices.

BE BOLD TO SAY NO – JUST AS YOU CAN SAY YES – LIVE WITHIN YOUR FAITH – DON’T DO GOD FOR ANYTHING OR ANYONE – DO ONLY THE WORD WHILE GOD DO GOD.

I pray God gives you wisdom in this regards before you found yourself at life crossroads and in guilt not knowing to say NO just as to say YES.

SELAH – PAUSE and THINK!

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION

By Leave a Comment

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION: BY THE “GOOD FIGHT” OF FAITH!

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus stead is WORTH ALL THE FIGHT if you must ensure your DOMINON IN REDEMPTION. When I talk of the GOOD FAITH OF FAITH, I am not talking of the demonic and satanic consciousness that most people tend to be acquainted with. Am here talking of you taking your STAND to ensure who you ARE in Christ Jesus by the virtue of being born of God – knowing that Christ Jesus is our REDEEMER and REDEMPTION indeed, and have given us access, rights and privileges to reign and rule in DOMINON – the sphere wherein the enemy and cohorts have no authority over you anymore. Hence Proverbs 24:10 says:

“If thou FAINT in the DAY of ADVERSITY, thy STRENGTH is SMALL” Proverbs 24:10.

Sometimes in the course of doing life and living godly – ADVERSITIES – do happen. How we go about in dealing with any of such adversities defines lots in our moving forward – onward and upward trajectory or moving backward or at stand still. When in course of life time you – lose your job, your business close down, you have uncertainty in your relationship and marriage, your children or spouse quit from you, or sickness and diseases afflicts you and your financial position gets worst and uncertain; your career or educational pursuits comes to a hurt and many more setback comes to play in your life – WHAT DO YOU DO?

WHAT YOU DO MATTERS – THEN IS THE “FIGHT OF FAITH” – TO REIGN IN DOMINION IN REDEMPTION.

I WANTS YOU TO KNOW – THAT IT’S ALL ABOUT YOUR “FAITH” – THAT THE ENEMY AND COHORTS ARE AFTER AND NOT THE EVENTS AND HAPPENING IN YOUR LIFE.

The enemy and cohorts knows, if they can SUCCEED in getting you OFF your ‘FAITH’ – that’s your trust and dependence on God’s grace and absolute providence in Christ Jesus – and they will not only ruin you, if you give them permission by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, they will also ruin all who God had orchestrated you to be His vessel of use, to extend His BLESSEDNESS to them; for the ENEMY and COHORTS knows, that when you SUCCEED in achieving God’s intended PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in doing life and living godly by FAITH, others will be beneficiaries too.

The enemy tried to destroy everything about our BELOVED JOB, but couldn’t crush his FAITH, and JOB by his FIGHT of FAITH for his FAITH, was able to come back far better off while declaring in the cause and course of his challenges – “I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVES, AND HE IS ABLE TO SAVE ME EVEN IN THIS FIGHT OF FAITH” (paraphrased).

“For I KNOW that my REDEEMER liveth, and that he shall STAND at the latter day upon the earth” Job 19:25.

The ENEMY and COHORTS tried it on Christ too, they were eventually and completely crushed and lost the battle of the FAITH as it’s written:

“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.

And I know for sure and assured certainty, the enemy and cohorts can’t succeed with you except you let him be – give them the needed permission to hurt you and your FAITH especially – which simply put, by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION.

Therefore, today, rise up to FIGHT for the GOOD FIGHT of your FAITH in Christ by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges, for your FAITH worth FIGHTING for because your destiny and that of others depends on it; don’t just give up or backslide simply for a momentary lack – because I know you can and will come back better and best of times in life and godliness than you were before if you deal life through FAITH and PATIENCE – Hebrews 6:11-12; for you can win wholly, faithfully, triumphantly, victoriously, graciously and gracefully when your stand insured and assured of your FAITH in God’s unwavering ability and agility in you and through you by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. That’s all you need now, today and always.

NEVER GIVE THE ENEMY AND COHORTS THE OXYGEN THEY CRAVE – IN ORDER NOT TO HURT YOU IN YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD

Therefore, don’t sit back or stay aloof, because the enemy and cohorts are envious of your worth and greatness, hence their intent. So, FIGHT! FIGHT!! and FIGHT!!! By ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus.

Don’t give up, or give in, I challenged you today. YOUR FAITH IS WORTH ALL THE FAITH IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN. I pray for you that God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS may abound with you, in life and grace in every way in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Have a blessed and awesome day.

HOLDING FORTH UNTO FAITH

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

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

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

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

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

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

ENSURE YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSION

By Leave a Comment

ENSURE YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSION – IN YOUR REDEMPTION DEED OF RIGHTS: THIS IS MADE POSSIBLE BY YOUR FAITH COMMUNICATION IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

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

Beloved in Christ, enough of complain-hallelujah lifestyle over these years, it’s your time in Christ Jesus to enact, ensure and actualize the essence of being born of God.

There’s a DEED OF RIGHTS IN REDEMPTION with your name ENGRAVED in it by the virtue of being born of God in Christ Jesus, but it’s your prerogative to ask, seek and knock after it to make it a reality for you.

You need to know also that your REDEMPTION reality can only be made possible:

** FIRSTLY through the ACKNOWLEDGING of your BILL OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN THE KINGDOM as a result of our Christ Jesus – DONE DEED – for you and all in Him;

** And SECONDLY by your UNDERSTANDING of the KNOW-HOW of COMMUNICATING your KNOWN FAITH in Christ Jesus to matters of LIFE and GODLINESS in ALL about living life even as it’s written:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).

And until you can ENSURE, ENACT and ACTUALISE the essence of REDEMPTION of Christ in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ to life matters will always be a struggle, strange, tasking and a burdensome in many ways which is contrary to 1 John 5:3. It’s for these limitations that there are many ‘AMEN’, ‘HALLELUIA’ and ‘BLESS ME’ Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ, unending fasting and prayers and various traditional dogmas, creeds, religious steps they might have taken to make the essence of REDEMPTION in EVERY AREAS of doing life. And this OUGHT not to be so in Christ and for all Christ is to us in Him by REDEMPTION.

You can only APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of your REDEMPTION in Christ of all that God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD through the promised given HOLY SPIRIT, supposedly.

Here are few REASONS to seek for KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of all that God DONE DEED for you in Christ Jesus, in order to APPROPRIATE your REDEMPTION into reality as a POSSESSION:

** That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

** That knowledge will deliver from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29.

** That your dominion in life is a product of your knowledge – Daniel 11:32.

** That a man’s value for knowledge determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.

** That knowledge is power, freedom and dominion, while religion is imprisonment and bondage – Luke 11:52.

** That the grace that determines our status is a function of knowledge – 2 Peter 1:2.

** That when you run after knowledge, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.

** That People who hate knowledge can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

** That age is not equal to knowledge, and should not be taken for knowledge – Job. 32:7-9.

** That if your thoughts are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.

** That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.

** That whatever you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.

** That studying for knowledge is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.

** That the only authentic proof of knowledge is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.

** That when you don’t grow in the spirit of knowledge, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.

** That those who seek to know men, don’t know God; when you seek to know God, people will seek to know you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.

** That your knowledge of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.

** And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured knowledge – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6 (Emphasis mine).

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR, not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29.

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is ABLE to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

“But what saith it? The WORD is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy HEART: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we PREACH; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. 10 For with the HEART man believeth unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH confession is made unto SALVATION” Romans 10:8-10.
