IT’S YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE – ‘THE’ LIFE OR ‘A’ LIFE

IT’S YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE – ‘THE’ LIFE OR ‘A’ LIFE: BE WISE TO GET ‘THE’ FULNESS OF LIFE NOT ‘A’ PORTION AND ‘A’ PART OF LIFE!

“Jesus saith unto him, I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIFE: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” John 14:6.

Many times you hear people or someone say – Get ‘A’ Life. Most times the connotations is to make you get out of your high horse and do something meaningful or exciting or get engaged with the norm that’s around at the moment or the combinations of all and such like. To get ‘A’ life will limits you as a child of God, I can say that and tell you that because I know and understand the connotations. It thus indicates getting A PART or PORTION of the FULNESS of God for you in Christ Jesus. You are REDEEMED for the FULL DEAL OF LIFE AND NOT FOR A PART OR LIMITED DEAL OF LIFE. So, don’t just get A LIFE, but get THE LIFE in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

It’s time to Get ‘THE’ LIFE and not ‘A’ LIFE my friend. God wants you to have the FULNESS of life which is in Christ Jesus. What God offers in Christ Jesus is THE LIFE and not an ‘A’ LIFE. The Holy Writ do admonish and exhort that Jesus is the – ‘THE’ LIFE giver, not the – ‘A’ LIFE giver, which is towards DOING LIFE on earth and LIVING GODLY towards the heavenly. Look at the article ‘THE’ in the scriptural context of John 14:6, it says – ‘THE’ LIFE not ‘A’ LIFE. It thus indicates that the FULNESS is in Christ Jesus who offers THE LIFE and not A PART OR PORTION you get when propel by people to – GET A LIFE.

This is to affirm also the Christian Faith is LIFE, THE LIFE that is offered and in the REDEMPTION OFFERING of Jesus Christ, which is not just A WAY of LIFE as some may have said or suggested as in religious circus. This is the Life which is in Christ Jesus and not of the five senses mindset of A WAY which many have been deluded with overtime in COMMON sense and not SCRIPTURAL sense.

You can infer this same insight to matter of Jesus Christ as – THE WAY and THE TRUTH. Meaning the CHRISTIAN FAITH in Christ Jesus is not of ‘A’ WAY or ‘A’ TRUTH but ‘THE’ WAY and ‘THE’ TRUTH. And it’s ONLY by ‘THE’ TRUTH in ‘THE’ WAY, that one is obtain SCRIPTURAL FREEDOM that is WHOLESOME indeed, and not by ‘A’ TRUTH or ‘A’ WAY. Hence the early Apostles where persecuted as conveying heresy and nicknamed as people of “THE WAY” in the earlier Apostolic Christian walk in Christ Jesus stead.

I pray as you ponder meditatively you will get insight and foresight to the realm of the enabling that God offers in THE LIFE in Christ Jesus stead for your good and goodness in His BLESSEDNESS. Amen.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL AS FAITHFUL ABRAHAM!

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL AS FAITHFUL ABRAHAM!

As I read, ponder and make up this write up, I recall countless times I have sang and still sing the song: “Abraham Blessings Are Mine”. This I have done for over 45yrs and still counting. And then while working on the cause and course of this month theme, the Lord reminds me again of the Scripture of Galatians 3:9 in a more ASSURED insight and foresight, as written:

“So then THEY which be of FAITH are BLESSED with FAITHFUL ABRAHAM” Galatians 3:9.

How gracious and graceful for one to easily lay claim to be Abraham seed and wants Abraham Blessings; more so, to be God’s friend as Abraham, as we do sing “I Am A Friend Of God”, even as the Scriptures indicate in James 2:23. Yeah, the Scriptures did say in Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29, that as many of us who are of FAITH in Christ Jesus are of Abraham and can share in the Abrahamic BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. This become possible because Abraham was ascribed as FAITHFUL ABRAHAM; this is due to his obedience in believing and being assured of God’s FAITHFULNESS in His promise, to let go of himself and let God be in all about him doing life and living godly.

Abraham was FAITHFUL toward God from the moment the Gospel as said in Galatians 3:8 was PREACHED to him; and I repeat, that the Gospel of God in FAITH was PREACHED to him, wherein he BELIEVED and acted upon accordingly and unreservedly. He believed God, and in obedience through FAITH, he journeyed with God in FAITHFULNESS until death as in his memoir in the Holy writ of Genesis 12-25. And all who came afterwards in FAITH have shared in his BLESSEDNESS with God, in that he was FAITHFUL as ascribed as – FAITHFUL ABRAHAM.

Let us see some FAITHFUL characteristics of FAITHFUL ABRAHAM that we can learn of him and can use as a measure to ascertain in SHARING in his GOSPEL enabling for us today:

  1. He was FAITHFUL to OBEY when he received the call of God without conferring with flesh and blood. He left all, his people inclusive, to cleave to God in faith. How I wish we can learn of him, on how to LEAVE and CLEAVE to a CAUSE – PURPOSE. Genesis 12; Galatians 1:12-17; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5 (Make 10:7).

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to depend on God’s provisions when tried and tested by his nephew – Lot – who was in his greediness on business deals and acquisitions with him. He turned his face to God, instead of having a fight on Earthly possessions that takes people lives instead of offering life. Genesis 13; Luke 12:15; Mark 10:28-3; Philippians 4:13, 19; 2 Corinthians 9:8; 2 Corinthians 3:4-6.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to pay up in FAITH at no pressure or dispute, the TITHE of his earnings – Genesis 14; Hebrews 7:1-9; Hebrews 3:1-2; Matthew 23:23; Matthew 22:15-22; 2 Corinthians 8-9; Luke 6:38; Luke 8:1-3; Acts 20:32-35; (Proverbs 3:9-10; Malachi 3:10-12; Deuteronomy 26:1-19; Leviticus 27:30-33).

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL toward God in Covenant in FAITH, being assured that God will do the needful – Genesis 15-17; Philippians 1:6; 1 John 5:14-15; Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to receive and entertained Angelic visitors unaware and at no question or cost. Genesis 18; Hebrews 13:1-3; Romans 12:9-21;

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to intercede in prayers for His family and Nation in crises and awaiting God’s judgement, peradventure God might show mercy – Genesis 18/19; Isaiah 59:16; Ezekiel 22:30; Romans 8:26:26-27; Isaiah 53:12; Romans 8:34; Hebrews 7:25.

 

  1. He was such FAITHFUL to let GO of his wife when challenge, in order to fulfil PURPOSE in God; and God foreseeing his sincerity save him and wife from such challenging test of his marital relationship. Genesis 20; Mark 10:28-31; Colossians 4:17; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL in the midst of the CONFUSION he find himself by the errors and failures he made in course of time in his decision. And God was there to turn his MESS into a MESSAGE because he was troubled and repentant. Genesis 21; 2 Thessalonians 3:3; Galatians 1:3-5; 1 Thessalonians 5:24; 1 John 1:9-10.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to let Go of his precious and most treasured gift – his son Isaac to God, at God’s request and demand, without questioning and arguing with God of His intent. – Genesis 22; Hebrews 11:17-19.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL even at his lost of his dear wife and in bereavement. And turn his lost for legacy, in that by her burying place, he then set up a foundation stone (the land of Canaan) that earmarked that which was to be FULFILL for posterity in God’s Prophecy in MOSES and the Israelites in years to come. Genesis 23; (Galatians 3:17-18; Genesis 15:12-14); 2 Corinthians 1:3-11; John 11:1-45; Romans 12:15; James 5:13.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL in that he was able to create the needed atmosphere that his son Isaac could get married faithfully. Genesis 24; 1 Timothy 4:12; Titus 2:1-8; Ephesians 6:1-4; Ephesians 5:21-33; 1 Peter 3:1-12.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to leave an inheritance for his Children as he died in FAITH, fulfiling PURPOSE in FAITHFULNESS. Genesis 25; Proverbs 13:22.

Abraham have FAITH in God’s FAITHFULNESS – being FAITHFUL; that’s why he was prepared from the moment of receiving the GOSPEL of FAITH, to LET GO of himself of anything, counting and accounting that God will take CARE of him no matter what may happen; thus indicating that whatsoever he let go at God’s request, God knows best as He’s a FAITHFUL God to make it up for him in a far better placement than the one he could have held unto and held back with; and in selfishness and in not Believing and Trusting that GOD IS FAITHFUL to keep to His PROMISE.

Today, we as Abraham seed, who are partakers of his enabling in Christ Jesus, how much can it be said, that we are as him, in being called FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. Let us not be the Believers in Christ Jesus stead, who wants the BLESSEDNESS of Abraham but are not PREPARED of the PROCESS in it; especially when that is the part that can fortified and make us grounded and rooted in FAITH and in the FAITH, in Christ Jesus stead, as we share in his blessing.

ABRAHAM was called a friend of God – James 2:23, because of the attribute of being FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. May we be as he’s toward God in Christ Jesus stead I pray for now and always. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Hearken to me, ye that FOLLOW AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS, ye that seek the Lord: LOOK UNTO THE ROCK whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 2 Look unto ABRAHAM YOUR FATHER, and unto SARAH THAT BARE YOU: for I CALLED him alone, and BLESSED him, and INCREASED him. 3 For the Lord shall COMFORT Zion: he will COMFORT all her waste places; and he will make her WILDERNESS like Eden, and her DESERT like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody” Isaiah 51:1-3.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, IN THEE SHALL ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“By FAITH Abraham, when he was CALLED to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, OBEYED; and he went out, NOT KNOWING whither he went. 9 By FAITH he sojourned in THE LAND OF PROMISE, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10 for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. 11 Through FAITH also Sara herself RECEIVED STRENGTH TO CONCEIVE SEED, and was DELIVERED of a child when she was past age, because she judged him FAITHFUL who had promised. 12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable . . . 17 By FAITH Abraham, when he was tried, OFFERED up Isaac: and he that had RECEIVED the promises OFFERED up his only begotten son, 18 of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19 ACCOUNTING that God was ABLE to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he RECEIVED him in a FIGURE” Hebrews 11:8-19.

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how FAITH wrought with his works, and by works was FAITH made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the FRIEND of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only” James 2:20-24.

“As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before him whom he BELIEVED, even God, who QUICKENETH the dead, and CALLETH those things which be not as though they were. 18 Who against HOPE believed in HOPE, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness . . .” Romans 4:17-25.

IGNORANCE – A Deadly And Killer Disease

IGNORANCE – A Deadly And Killer Disease: Don’t Keep Company Nor Partnership – Keep At Bay!

Be INFORMED to be TRANSFORMED and EMANCIPATED in LIFE and GRACE – Life Is worth living, therefore, give no room for IGNORANCE with God in matters of LIFE and GODLY LIVING. As a matter of life in grace, DON’T BE A PREY FOR THE ENEMY AND COHORTS – and I say again don’t be Ignorant or stay Ignorant, it’s a killer and deadly disease. Find the needed knowledge, if possible PURSUE after it and buy it to own it, just as you will be crazy to have and own a jewel or pearls. Matthew 13:44-46.

Be INFORMED to be TRANSFORMED. Invest time to STUDY, READ and Question YOURSELF ALWAYS, craving for ANSWERS – that will open the door for your UNIQUENESS and DIFFERENCE as JESUS in humanity. Luke 2:41-50. I challenge you to make an INVESTMENT in knowledge. Invest in knowledgeable material say books, that will enhance you in knowledge and understanding on how to do life and be fulfilled. Make needed efforts to stride not just for SUCCESS and EXCELLENCE, but for a FULFILLING life. Joshua 1:8; Proverbs 22:29; Colossians 4:17.

Invest your time to know the WORD of God for yourself and stop this stunted growth in relying only on what you hear from the pulpit or crusade or someone else. This will help you to be noble in grace as the BEREÄN Christians of Acts 17:10-12. Know full well that the HOLY BIBLE is the only authentic, unadulterated, and all inspiring, revealing, and empowering book that’s INFORMATIVE and TRANSFORMATIVE at any given time.

Other BOOKS you READ, but the Holy Bible is the book that READS you. And the ONLY book whose AUTHOR is ever-present while you READ it and to explain it in FULLNESS of details on such context as may be needed and required. Explore to know the WORD OF GOD for yourself and not for someone else today. You are the custodian and definition of your happiness and satisfaction in life and godly living. Knowing God’s WORD will APPROVE you in GRACE and BLESSEDNESS, and it will take you out of ignorance and it’s a cancerous effect in every way of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

Therefore, Be INFORMED – Be TRANSFORMED And EMANCIPATED. GIVE NO ROOM FOR IGNORANCE WITH GOD.  Don’t be the PREY for the ENEMY and COHORTS. You are worth the best of God – hence, pursue knowledge and understanding in grace in all about that subject that concerns you. For you can only ABUSE – that is, ABNORMALLY USE – a thing when you are IGNORANT of the PURPOSE of such. Hence, you don’t need to be mistaken or walk-in errors at a great time of opportunity.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (MISTAKEN), not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not CONFORMED to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING of your mind, that ye may PROVE what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” Romans 12:1-2.

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD – TO HUMAN SALVATION!

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD – TO HUMAN SALVATION!

The GOSPEL is about the CROSS, the CROSS is about CHRIST JESUS, and CHRIST JESUS is the POWER of God, the POWER of God is about human SALVATION – and NOTHING ELSE; otherwise, it’s more human BONDAGES.

Therefore, if the Gospel you are hearing or listening to, or receiving, does not LIBERATE you, throw it into the bin –  discard it I mean, otherwise, you will end up in more BONDAGES than you anticipated.

For the GOSPEL is not a religion, not a DOCTRINE and more so, not a PROPHECY awaiting to happen to you, nor is it a TRADITIONAL dogmas, creeds, bylaws and philosophy to adhere toward. As such, FLEE from every contrary and live in the liberty wherein Christ Jesus had MADE you whole and free in Father God. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“For I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from FAITH to FAITH: as it is written, The JUST shall LIVE by FAITH” Romans 1:16-17.

“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.

“For Christ SENT me not to baptize, but to PREACH THE GOSPEL: not with wisdom of words, lest the CROSS of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the PREACHING of the CROSS is to them that perish FOOLISHNESS; but unto us which are SAVED it is the POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ CRUCIFIED, unto the Jews a STUMBLINGBLOCK, and unto the Greeks FOOLISHNESS; 24 but unto them which ARE CALLED, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the POWER of God, and the WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:17-25.

SPEAK TO THE MOUNTAIN

SPEAK TO THE MOUNTAIN: YOUR MOUTH – GOD’S MOUTH IF YOU BELIEVE!

HAVE YOU DWELL LONG ENOUGH ON THE MOUNT? Are you STRUGGLING or at STANDSTILL in your PATH of progress? MOUNTAIN’S are long standing road blocks on your path to progress. You need to SPEAK to it and not TALK about it.

You can by today and through this month overturn THAT mountain to become a plain by SPEAKING FORTH to it right now as Zerubbabel did AUTHORITATIVELY for the outpouring of God’s favour – GRACE.

YOUR MOUTH DEFINES YOU – BELIEVE and SPEAK FORTH to your triumph, victory, overcoming and more than conquerors in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For I will give you a MOUTH and WISDOM, which all your ADVERSARIES shall not be ABLE to GAINSAY nor RESIST” Luke 21:15.

“WHO ART THOU, O great MOUNTAIN? before Zerubbabel thou shalt BECOME A PLAIN: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it” Zechariah 4:7.

“For verily I SAY unto you, That whosoever shall SAY UNTO THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not DOUBT in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall HAVE them” Mark 11:23-24.

“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.

“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.

“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.

“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.

EXCELLENCE IS PURE: ENVISION IT TO EXCEL!

EXCELLENCE IS PURE: ENVISION IT TO EXCEL!

“HOLDING the MYSTERY OF THE FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE VOID OF OFFENCE TOWARD God, AND TOWARD men” Acts 24:16.

Sometimes when I hear some so called Gospel Ministers and Christian faith believers say this –

“IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT THEY DO AS LONG AS GOD STILL LOVES THEM” – I begin to wonder what this life of grace has become in the 21st century. Is it true that God still loves us in faith no matter what we do? Who then will QUESTION the UNSAVED and what right do we have then to preach the Gospel to the unsaved.

Know full well that God loves us, and that does not mean He does commend a life being lived outside His WORD. As I have always said time and again that our God will only COMMEND what He COMMAND and ORDERED. All things excellent will work for the good of those who not only love God BUT walk and do according to the course of His Word – Purpose. Romans 8:28-30.

Many times, God’s purposes of excellence to us, is so clear before us, but we need to walk and work in the course of that envisioned covenant of His grace; and if one begin to do any act of life outside His Word, we will surely loose out in our place of grace to excel. Apostle Paul says this in Galatians 2:21 “I do not FRUSTRATE the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain”. Meaning I do not do things that will make the GRACE of  God INOPERATIVE and INEFFECTIVE in my life. Amen.

A living example of frustrating grace is as this: What happened to Reuben the firstborn of Jacob?

Though born for envisioned excellence, he lost his place of blessedness to excel to his younger brother Joseph, for sleeping with one of His father’s wives. You can’t eat your cake and have it. Grace for excellence is not cheap or not to be taken for granted and done with despite as Hebrews 10:29 warns and enjoins: “of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done DESPITE unto the Spirit of grace?”

When you look through the heroes of Faith in the Patriarchal order of HEBREWS CHAPTER ELEVEN, you will notice after Patriarch Jacob, the next name that comes is Patriarch Joseph instead of Patriarch Reuben, though he was his father’s excellency of dignity and firstborn worthy of double honour as the Scripture does recommend – Genesis 49:3; Deuteronomy 21:15-17; Genesis 25:31-33. That’s why you must be on guard on your ENVISIONED EXCELLENCE to avoid derailing in the grace of actualising your place in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead, of our REDEMPTION in Him. Acts 20:32; Hebrews 6:10-12; Ephesians 1:7 (Colossians 1:13-14; 1 Corinthians 1:30).

EXCELLENCE IS PURE! So, if you crave to have God’s good and best, watch your PATH OF LIFE to the ENVISIONED EXCELLENCE. 1 Timothy 3:9; Philippians 4:8.

“And Jacob CALLED unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. 3 Reuben, thou art MY FIRSTBORN, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: 4 unstable as water, thou shalt not EXCEL; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; then DEFILEDST thou it: he went up to my couch” (Genesis 49:1-4).

“. . . By FAITH Isaac BLESSED Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.  21 By FAITH Jacob, when he was a dying, BLESSED both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.  22 By FAITH Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. . .” (Hebrews 11:20-22).

NOVEMBER 2014: Do You ENVISION To Be The BEST

By Leave a Comment

NOVEMBER 2014: Do You ENVISION To Be The BEST – Then Work And Walk At It – It’s God’s EXPECTATIONS From You – Being FAITHFUL!

Is time to REIGN and RULE in LIFE by the Kingdom settings of God – therefore, STOP EXISTING, START LIVING.

“The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine ENEMIES thy footstool. 2 The Lord shall send the ROD of thy strength out of ZION (THE CHURCH): RULE THOU IN THE MIDST OF THINE ENEMIES. 3 Thy people shall be WILLING (VOLUNTEER) in the DAY OF THY POWER, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the DEW of thy YOUTH” Psalms 110:1-3 (Emphasis Mine) (Hebrews 12:22-24).

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and HAST REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of EVERY KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE US unto our God KINGS and PRIESTS: and we shall REIGN ON THE EARTH” Revelation 5:9-10 (Revelation 1:5-6; 1 Peter 2:9-10; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21).

Life is for LIVING and not for a mere EXISTENCE. You don’t have to eat to live but to live to eat. If you can’t ENVISION it by the WORD and not by a mere vision seeing or day dreaming and presume imagination, life will be a mere existence and not a living worth as may expect or intend to see. Know for certainty – YOU ARE REDEEMED, that is RE-OWNED by God from the grips of SIN – the reason for SICKNESS, POVERTY and SPIRITUAL DEATH, that you might LIVE to reign and rule in life in Christ Jesus stead. When you LIVE by a mere existence, you can’t REIGN in life, but when you live by the ENVISIONED Word, you live and reign in life.

Whatever you do as a profession/career – be FAITHFUL to be the BEST in Life and Grace. Are you a Manson/BrickLayer, Painter, Cook, Tailor/Fashion Designer, Decorator, Singer, Musician, Pastor, Student, Politician, Entrepreneur, Medical Profession, Banker, Lawyer, Civil Servant, Leader of any sorts and such like – be the BEST. Whatever is your kind of SERVICES to humanity that you are excelling or hoping to excel in BECOMING – the question you need to ponder along is – What do you see you BECOME of it to mankind? As far as you can see – insights and foresights – that is, to ENVISION, so can you BECOME in the kingdom – just as father Abraham of our FAITH in Christ Jesus was spoken of, in the Holy Writ of Genesis 13:14-18 (Galatians 3:6-9; 13-14; 26-29).

In the kingdom, you are as good as to what you ENVISION and determine to EXCEL to become in it – for the GOOD of mankind. It’s not enough to say I am of this career or profession or calling. How FAITHFUL and GOOD are you working with the enabling grace of God in Christ Jesus, in BECOMING in it – that is, to be the BEST for the GOOD of people, I mean beyond just self-centered and self-gains.

It’s not in the good of the Christian FAITH that any should think that they can acclaimed to a FIELD (CAREER/PROFESSION) in life when and while they are POORLY and BADLY providing GOODS and SERVICES to people; and they think they can get AWAY with it in the Kingdom even when it appears it’s a norm among many outside of the FAITH. For example if one say, I am a PAINTER just for the MONETARY GAINS to earn and not necessarily to provide the BEST – GOODS and SERVICES – to people, such can’t become in the kingdom no matter how hard you work your socks off. It’s for this reason of just GAIN above providing corresponding BEST GOODS and SERVICES that they are many people struggling in the Faith in spite of all gains gotten. For GAIN is not GODLINESS – GODLY LIVING – 1 Timothy 6:5-6; and God will only reward FAITHFUL stewardship to His WORD – 1 Corinthians 4:1-2.

God wants us to EXCEL in life and grace, He however wants us to provide corresponding goods and services to humanity with DILIGENCE and PRUDENCE; also, to ORDERLY and DECENTLY present it. You can only be able to acclaim to EXCEL and REIGN in life and grace in this act of God, if you can ENVISION it.

Therefore, ENVISION TO REIGN; and to REIGN through EXCELLENCY.

Know for sure, that as long as you see men as trees, and not as men, you will hardly bother to be the best in that field. It’s not enough to work to earn a living, envision to see that you provide the good and services that will have eternal and human effect in men because you are in PARTNERSHIP with God.

DON’T JUST LIVE: BE ENVISIONED – HAVE INSIGHT AND FORESIGHT IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING.

I earnestly pray that you will envision to reign in life excellently as you partner with God in the kingdom through the months and years as long as you live, in Jesus name. Amen.

“And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. 23 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. 24 And he looked up, and said, I SEE men as trees, walking. 25 After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and SAW every man clearly. 26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town” (Mark 8:22-26).

WISDOM NUGGETS – DON’T BE AN ILLEGITIMATE PERSON IN THE KINGDOM

By Leave a Comment

WISDOM NUGGETS – DON’T BE AN ILLEGITIMATE PERSON IN THE KINGDOM – DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR: SEEK THE NEED FOR SPIRITUAL PARENTING AND MENTORING!

Don’t grow in grace in ISOLATION as some do or have done. “Be SEPARATE” in Scriptural terms as written in 2 Corinthians 6:17 (16-18) means being SET APART for God, and doesn’t necessarily mean being in ISOLATION from others or to grow in grace without COMMUNION or ASSOCIATION in the fellowship of the Brethren as written:

“And let us CONSIDER one another in order to STIR up love and good works, 25 not FORSAKING the ASSEMBLING of ourselves together, as is the MANNER of some, but EXHORTING one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching” Hebrews 10:24-25.

Do you have a Spiritual Parent/Mentor in the walk of grace in Christ Jesus stead or you are just a vagabond child in the kingdom? Don’t Take The Need For Spiritual Parenting and Mentoring For Granted!

“. . . 8 But if you are WITHOUT chastening (GUIDANCE), of which ALL have BECOME PARTAKERS, then you are ILLEGITIMATE (BASTARD, VAGABOND) and not sons . . .” Hebrews 12:3-11.

May I advice and say – Don’t be a headless and a no Shepherd guide Child in the Kingdom. Much more so, endeavour to go to a Church gathering place of WORSHIP and FELLOWSHIP where there’s a SHEPHERD and not a HIRELING as Christ warns in John 10:1-15.

Don’t be deterred from the principle act of responsibility and accountability in the Kingdom, because you think or know that there are some TOUTS operating Ministry in the name of God (Jude 1:1-24; Philippians 1:12-21, 27); and don’t allow the errors of some to make you take for granted and play low the essence of Scriptural injunctions for yourself as written in Ephesians 4:7-16; know for sure, there’s an essence for the place of Shepherd in the Kingdom – to cause growth, maturity and perfection in the Body Ministry, in Christ Jesus stead. This is needful until He returns for His Church, that set to be glorious, victorious, triumphant, more than conquerors, without spot and wrinkles and faithfully awaiting Him.

For the cause of the above reasons, Apostle Paul dearly and passionately exhorted, admonished and gave a charged in this wise:

“For though ye have ten thousand INSTRUCTORS in Christ, yet have ye not many FATHERS: for in Christ Jesus I HAVE BEGOTTEN you through the GOSPEL” 1 Corinthians 4:15.

Thanks to God for the workings of the Holy Spirit in all BELIEVERS in Christ. Yet Today, there are many SPIRITUAL PARENTLESS Christian’s around, who are busy changing churches places of worship and fellowship as they change their clothes; and in some cases they have become more of a spiritual harlots; And for this absurd behavioural act of conduct, some parts of the Churches of Christ are in many phases of decay and having genuine leadership problems; and some on a fall outs as Apostle Paul admonished young Timothy on how he OUGHT to BEHAVE – CONDUCT himself in house of God as written:

“These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly; 15 but if I am DELAYED, I write so that you may KNOW HOW YOU OUGHT TO CONDUCT yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” 1 Timothy 3:14-15.

Some of these absurd behavioural act of conduct are people who can’t lead themselves in the kingdom, but now are leading people and with no appropriate counselling and guidance, and have reproduce their kinds forming the mixed multitude around, creating schisms and questions both within the body of Christ and even among the unbelieving world who we ought to give the light of God without question.

Just because you are born of God, filled with the Holy Spirit and knows some couples of scriptures and speak forth in other tongues even more than your teachers doesn’t makes you to live without spiritual parenting. You need to SEEK for one. It’s possible to have many people around you to INSTRUCT you about the ways of God both in life, family and ministry, BUT endeavour to locate your Spiritual mentor’s as FATHER’S and MOTHER’S in faith that is reachable and you will respect, honour and dignify their spiritual position in your life for guidance knowing they will not take advantage of you or make you vulnerable in the faith. Their guidance as said by Apostle Paul in the scripture above of 1 Corinthians 4:15, will enhance, establish, strengthen and impart your faith in the Lord in order to THRIVE, FLOURISH and FULFILLED in Christ.

There is the NEED for SPIRITUAL PARENTING and MENTORING in the Kingdom Gospel of Christ Jesus. I do encourage you to Pray about it and God will lead you right to such gracious and graceful spiritual parent in faith as promised in Jeremiah 3:15, who will endeavour to see you established all round in Christ Jesus stead in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS. Amen.

Blessed regards in life and godliness!
