DARE TO – BELIEVE – BELONG – IN ORDER TO BECOME IN THE STEAD

DARE TO – BELIEVE – BELONG – IN ORDER TO BECOME IN THE STEAD: FOR NO WORD – NO BELIEVE – NO FAITH – MEANS NO BECOMING!
 
“And BLESSED is she that BELIEVED: for there shall be a PERFORMANCE of those things which were told her from the Lord” Luke 1:45.
 
In course of time, I have seen how some so called Believers who just wants to wake up in the Christian faith with everything readily ready for them at no cost. There are some who will not take a stand in Christ Jesus, but wants to get everything readily ready and available at their disposal at no cost; and while there are some too, who are without a signal of commitment and dedication in the stead thinks it’s entitlement to have anything at no cost. While in another scenario, there are some Believers who wants to wake up on a Church gathering services day, expecting a perfect church services section that’s readily set, and music set, and decorations set, and message set, and reception set, and welcoming set and such like, as may be applicable with no aota of their input. These are the Believers so called, who wants not to belong but wants to have a beautiful atmosphere, and gracious environment to enjoy a good outlook services while they are there without a participatory contribution to the desired outcome.
 
“NOT FORSAKING our meeting together [as BELIEVERS for worship and instruction], as is the HABIT of SOME, but encouraging one another; and all the more [faithfully] as you see the day [of Christ’s return] approaching” Hebrews 10:25/Amplified.
 
And these set of nonchalant Believer’s who are less or of no concerns to play a role in the act of BELONGING to their set Church gathering place, which they wish to serve God acceptably and worship Him worthily, are already knowingly and unknowingly hindering their own Blessedness. The concept to see that other Believers but not them, are to do the needed good setting atmosphere for great gatherings indicates pure ignorance to spiritual understanding; and to watch others working for the common good and goodness that ensures that the environmental demands to a great meetings are in place, with everyone participating shows how shortsighted such a group are in the affairs of the Kingdom of God. Everyone in the kingdom is given the measure of faith and grace to enable them participate in the kingdom affairs – and not having one’s hands involved to make good to be done collectively, and with the hearts of BELONGING – it’s already an indicator that such a person or group can’t enjoy the BLESSEDNESS of God in BECOMING in Christ Jesus stead.
 
“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.
I want you dear reader to know that the Christian faith stead in Christ Jesus is reachable, lovable, liveable, tangible and touchable in every sense of the Believer’s life. And for each of the Believer’s to enjoy the corporate BLESSEDNESS of BECOMING in the kingdom stead of God, there’s the need to BELIEVE, BELONG in order to BECOME it in life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“But as many as RECEIVED him, to them gave he POWER to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 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 1:12-14/Emphasis Mine.
 
And you can’t just BELIEVE in emptiness as a BELIEVER in Christ Jesus, otherwise you are contacting demons and strange spirits of contamination which are contagious in every respect. The Believer’s BELIEVE must be of faith-based on the Holy Scriptural WORD of God, otherwise it’s magic, bondages, sorcery and such like that have kept many in religious circus and religiosity circle, without actualising their blessedness in becoming in Christ Jesus stead.
 
Every Believer must come to the knowing and understanding that a NO scriptural WORD of God as the bases of our stead in Christ Jesus, means a NO FAITH to walk and please God in His BLESSEDNESS to be your reality – and that means you can’t FUNCTION in the grace, and NOT able to ensure and be assured of BECOMING in the receiving of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:17.
 
“STUDY and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God APPROVED (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] THE WORD of Truth” 2 Timothy 2:15/AMP Classic Edition.
 
It’s therefore time for you to – DARE TO BELIEVE by the scriptural WORD of truth, in order to ensure your FAITH stand in the grace to BECOME by God – and in EVERYWAY in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
For many times I have seen Church folks being very sceptical to step up for a full dedication and commitment to God’s WORD – both privately and publicly in the gatherings – towards God’s work in His Church; while yet, they wants the FULLNESS of God’s POWER and GRACE to FUNCTION and to BECOME in everyway of doing LIFE and living GODLY. And we must all know that God can’t be mocked and be taken for a ride when He wants His people to belong in order to enjoy His BLESSEDNESS in their fellowship.
 
“Not FORSAKING or NEGLECTING to ASSEMBLE TOGETHER [as BELIEVERS], as is the HABIT of some people, but ADMONISHING (warning, urging, and encouraging) one another, and all the more faithfully as you see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25/AMP Classic Edition.
 
And sometimes most of these excuse givers and absentee Believer’s, gives some frivolities reasons that are simply born out of their fear phobia or that they may lose out if they do make such act of dedication and commitment by belonging in the stead of Christ Jesus. And unfortunately some of them, with all their act of been sceptical not to belong to the church after being a believer as they believe, had not made much better of themselves, in spite of their despite toward God’s WORD, in not willing to literary obey the instructions by faith; and the knowing of the truth, that believing God and belonging His Church – the gathering of His redeemed, precious and chosen people, is there to help all irrespective, to become of God in the blessedness that’s in Christ Jesus.
 
“For the [true] LOVE of God is this: that we do His commands [KEEP His ordinances and are mindful of His PRECEPTS and TEACHING]. And these orders of His are not IRKSOME (BURDENSOME, OPPRESSIVE, OR GRIEVOUS). 4 For whatever is born of God is VICTORIOUS over the world; and this is the victory that CONQUERS the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is it that is victorious over [that conquers] the world but he who BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on that fact]?” 1 John 5:3-5/AMP Classic Edition.
 
I make BOLD to say that God is GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to His WORD and will NEVER fail and CAN’T and WON’T begin to FAIL because of YOU. And FAITH is only active to bring about results to FUNCTION and BECOME by the WORD. Faith in Christ Jesus stead, is of the WORD. FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE and neither a DOCTRINAL nor DENOMINATIONAL creed, by-law and religious dogma’s that is just there to be known and apply.
 
Faith is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus life access, and their justified essence in grace to stand with God.
 
Faith is ACTING correspondingly on what you believe on God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE, while FAITH is ACTIVE. BELIEVE is the CONCEPTION and CONSEQUENCE of what you HEAR of God’s WORD, while FAITH is the action upon that conception and consequence of the hearing, to bring it into reality accordingly. Meaning a NO FAITH, means a NO access and essence for God to reward one’s endeavours to FUNCTION and BECOME in God.
 
“Therefore, since we are JUSTIFIED (ACQUITTED, DECLARED RIGHTEOUS, and given a RIGHT STANDING with God) THROUGH FAITH, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). 2 Through Him also we have [our] ACCESS (entrance, introduction) BY FAITH into this GRACE (state of God’s favor) in which we [FIRMLY and SAFELY] STAND. And let us rejoice and exult in our hope of experiencing and enjoying the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2/AMP Classic Edition.
 
“Now FAITH is the ASSURANCE (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the EVIDENCE of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]. 2 For by this [kind of] FAITH the men of old GAINED [DIVINE] APPROVAL. 3 By FAITH [that is, with an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God] we understand that the worlds (universe, ages) were FRAMED and CREATED [formed, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose] by THE WORD of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to [WALK with God and] PLEASE Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] BELIEVE that God EXISTS and that He REWARDS those who [earnestly and diligently] SEEK Him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6/AMP.
 
And to FUNCTION and BECOME in God, one needs to ensure that they BELIEVE in Christ Jesus and BELONG to His Church WITHOUT PREJUDICE, SENTIMENTS and DISSIMULATION, and with a daring spirit of truth and not with a fear phobia, both in doing LIFE and living GODLY. And you can then FUNCTION and BECOME what you BELIEVE upon in God’s WORD of BLESSEDNESS by God’s POWER and GRACE in Christ Jesus. Amen.
 
I PRAY YOU DARE TO BELIEVE BY THE WORD, TO ENSURE FAITH, IN ORDER TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN

They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it” Matthew 9:27-30.

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG IN ORDER TO BECOME

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG IN ORDER TO BECOME: FOR NO WORD – NO FAITH, IF YOU MUST FUNCTION TO BECOME!

It’s time for you to – DARE TO BELIEVE – as you BELONG in the faith, in order for you to BECOME by God’s WORD, in EVERYWAY, in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

Many times I have seen Church folks being very sceptical for a full dedication and commitment to God’s WORD and to His work in His Church, and yet want the FULLNESS of God’s POWER and GRACE to FUNCTION and BECOME in everyway in LIFE and GODLINESS. Most reasons are simply for their FEAR PHOBIA that they may lose out if they do make such acts to be dedicated and committed. And unfortunately, their been sceptical had not made them better in spite of their despise to God’s WORD and His Church – (1 John 5:3-5).

I make BOLD to say that God is GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to His WORD and will NEVER fail and CAN’T and WON’T begin to FAIL because of YOU. And FAITH is only active to bring about results to FUNCTION and BECOME by the WORD – (Romans 10:17). Faith in Christ Jesus, is of the WORD. FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE and neither a doctrinal nor denominational creed and religious dogma that is just there to be known.

Faith is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus’ life access and justified essence in grace with God. Faith is ACTING correspondingly on what you believe in God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE, while FAITH is ACTIVE. BELIEVE is the CONCEPTION and CONSEQUENCE of what you HEAR of God’s WORD, while FAITH is the action upon that conception and consequence of the hearing, to bring it into reality accordingly. Meaning a NO FAITH, means a NO access and essence for God to reward one’s endeavours to FUNCTION and BECOME in God – (Hebrews 11:6).

And to FUNCTION and BECOME in God, one needs to ensure that they BELIEVE in Christ Jesus and BELONG to His Church with a daring spirit and not fear phobia, in LIFE and GODLINESS. And you can then FUNCTION and BECOME what you BELIEVE upon in God’s WORD by God’s POWER and GRACE in Christ Jesus. Amen.

I PRAY YOU DARE TO BELIEVE IN ORDER TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But as many as RECEIVED him, to them gave he POWER to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH” John 1:12-14.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous (irksome, burdensome, taskmaster). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMES the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMES the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMES the world, but he that BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

THE NEW CREATION YOU – HAVE NO PAST

By Leave a Comment

THE NEW CREATION YOU – HAVE NO PAST: YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN THE GRACE!

“But to as many as did RECEIVE and WELCOME Him, He GAVE the right [the authority, the privilege] to BECOME children of God, that is, to those who BELIEVE in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name— 13 who were born, not of blood [natural conception], nor of the will of the flesh [physical impulse], nor of the will of man [that of a natural father], but of God [that is, a divine and supernatural birth—they are born of God—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified]” John 1:12-13.

If any man be in Christ, He is a NEW CREATION the Holy Writ says – is that difficult to know and understand I don’t think so. Unfortunately, many can’t comprehend that unconditionality just  like the Nicodemus of John 3:1-8; because it seems so simple and easy and they intend to make it a bit complicated for themselves to realisation, before they can BECOME as God intends His free access and pass toward Him in Christ Jesus, just as it’s written:

“Therefore, if ANYONE is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; OLD things have PASSED away; behold, ALL THINGS have BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17.

I reason and know that at baby birth, watching my lovely, gracious and graceful wife bringing forth the wonderful and fabulous children to BEING, that each of them had no history for me to reckon unto them for any reason. I see in them a brand new personality arriving to CHART and THRIVE a NEW PATH of life. I saw no PAST but a NEW DAWN in them and for them to innovate, create, initiate, manoeuvre and explore the atmosphere they love and would love to have and enjoy in grace and life in humanity and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

That’s what I PERCEIVE when I gave my life to Christ Jesus – in the knowing and understanding, that my PAST has become irrelevant and a NEW me in Christ Jesus is BORN and DAWN – for uniqueness and greatness in relation to all about me in God’s REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Upon the above scenario I am emboldened to say to you – Don’t give up or go wearisome or give in to the fear phobias of starting or completing your life intended plans, purposes and pursuits because of your PAST. For your PAST can’t hold back YOUR TODAY not TOMORROW in Christ Jesus, except you don’t  BELIEVE in your NEW DAWN and PERMIT your past to have a hold on and over you. Your believe will define your corresponding act of FAITH. And you act of FAITH will define your direction of trave in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

God’s REDEMPTION for you in Christ Jesus has CERTIFIED and JUSTIFIED the ACCESS for your full JOY and HAPPINESS that your PAST is insignificance to the DONE DEED to make you a NEW CREATION. In Christ Jesus, you are now built into a NEW FOUNDATION that erased every other foundation known and unknown that have held you back religiously, culturally, traditionally and such like. Romans 5:1-2; Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 3:10-23; Colossians 2:1-23.

I want you to know full well that your FAITH in God can go killing giants and ACHIEVING GREATNESS, even when it seems all things has come to a halt, as you keep ACTING on the WORD. For FAITH is ACTING in and on what you BELIEVE on God’s eternal WORD accordingly. Meaning, nothing can stop you from BECOMING when you keep your BELIEVING-FAITH in Christ Jesus alive.

Therefore, DARE TO DREAM AGAIN, DARE TO BELIEVE AGAIN and DARE TO BECOME AGAIN. That’s what I considered to be the spirit behind every PLANS, PURPOSES and PURSUITS with an achiever mindset to BECOME in Christ Jesus stead. Amen – Romans 4:16-25.

Finally, Jesus said, “. . . ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU” (Matthew 9:29) – that means, by your FAITH in Him through His WORD, BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE. Romans 10:8-13.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore, if ANYONE is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; OLD things have PASSED away; behold, ALL things have BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17.

“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.

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

” . . . FOR OTHER FOUNDATION CAN NO MAN LAY THAN THAT IS LAID, WHICH IS JESUS CHRIST. 12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13 every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is” 1 Corinthians 3:10-13.

“. . . As ye have therefore RECEIVED Christ Jesus the Lord, SO WALK YE IN HIM: 7 rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 BEWARE LEST ANY MAN SPOIL YOU THROUGH PHILOSOPHY AND VAIN DECEIT, AFTER THE TRADITION OF MEN, AFTER THE RUDIMENTS OF THE WORLD, AND NOT AFTER CHRIST. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power . . .” Colossians 2:1-23.

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that HE WHICH HATH BEGUN A GOOD WORK IN YOU will PERFORM it until the day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6.

“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. 11 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 10:8-13.

“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY or COWARDICE or FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER and of LOVE and of SOUND judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified).

THE ESSENCE – THE NEED TO BELIEVE/BELIEVING IN THE FAITH

By Leave a Comment

THE ESSENCE – THE NEED TO BELIEVE/BELIEVING IN THE FAITH: IN ORDER TO BECOME WHOM AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN THE FAITH IN THE STEAD OF CHRIST JESUS.

“But as many as RECEIVED Him, to them gave he power to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE ON His name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” John 1:12-13.

The scripture gives an open check to all to come and RECEIVE Christ Jesus in their life in order to BECOME the sons of God. And this is accredited on the basis of the essence to see the need to BELIEVE in Him. For in Christ Jesus stead lies only the basis of the Faith to usher in any to become the sons of God; and sons of God here indicates a non-gender, a basis of having the power [enabling, ability, capacity] to enact and authenticate authoritatively the rights and privileges in the redemption of God in Christ Jesus stead – STAND IN THE FAITH. Hence, there’s the need to BECOME WHOM and to BECOME WHAT you BELIEVE IN THE FAITH in the stead of Christ Jesus. [Romans 5:1-2]. And to have one BECOME WHOM and WHAT one BELIEVES of God in Christ Jesus stead is paramount IN THE FAITH as exemplified in the Matthew 9:27-30

Scriptural Context:

“And when Jesus departed thence, TWO BLIND MEN followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. 28 And when he was come into the house, THE BLIND MEN came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, BELIEVE YE THAT I AM ABLE TO DO THIS? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU [BECOME “WHAT” YOU BELIEVE FOR AND “WHOM” YOU BELIEVE TO MAKE IT HAPPEN]. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it” Matthew 9:27-30/Emphasis Mine.

  1. BECOME WHOM YOU BELIEVE – [John 1:12-14, 17].
  2. BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE – [Matthew 9:28-29 (27-31)].

TWO DISTINCTION – TO BELIEVE ON HIM AND TO BELIEVE IN HIM:

There is two-mark Distinctions in respect to BELIEVE/BELIEVING in order to RECEIVE of God to BECOME what you believe and whom you believe. There’s the BELIEVING ON Him and the BELIEVING IN Him. You need to know that, to BELIEVE ON HIM and to BELIEVE IN Him, for the BLESSEDNESS of Him in this context, speaks of God’s graciousness that’s expressed and being expressed in Christ Jesus. In other words, BELIEVING ON Christ Jesus [ON HIS NAME] and BELIEVING IN Christ Jesus [IN HIS NAME] toward the Father God, is not the same but are both important in our REDEMPTION REALITIES of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

[a] TO BELIEVE/BELIEVING ON Christ Jesus [ON HIS NAME]:

For one to BELIEVE ON Christ Jesus [ON HIS NAME] toward God, is for one to BELIEVE on His WILL to SAVE one as SINNER from the clutches and bondages of sin and sinful living, in order to access and obtain the good and goodness of God, for one’s own SALVATION in HIM. [1 John 3:23; John 1:12-13; John 3:18; Acts 16:30-34; John 12:46; 1 John 3:23].

[b] TO BELIEVE/BELIEVING IN CHRIST JESUS [IN HIS NAME]:

For one to BELIEVE IN Christ Jesus [IN HIS NAME], thus means to believe in His ability – the ENABLING POWER in the SERVICE of the Kingdom to advance and to keep the enemy at bay; this is about and toward a BELIEVER receiving the POWER of God for God’s Kingdom services – a sphere, wherein the Believing one, is depending and looking up [enacting and authenticating] for the help of God, in order to receive what it takes to fulfil God’s plan, purpose and pursuit, in life and godliness. [John 2:23; Matthew 18:6 (Mark 9:42); Mark 11:24-26; John 14:1, 9-11; Titus 3:8].

THE ESSENCES [ESSENTIALS] TO BELIEVE AND BELIEVING:

  1. It HELPS to differentiate from Satan the devils and the cohorts kind of trembling believe – [James 2:19].
  2. It HELPS to access the kingdom of God – have eternal life and to avoid condemnation/damnation – [John 3:16-18; Mark 16:15-16 (1 John 5:11-12; John 17:3; Acts 20:29-21)].
  3. It HELPS to ensure and assure to the basis of faith to operate by the WORD – [Romans 10:8-10, 17].

DARE TO – BELIEVE – BELONG – IN ORDER TO BECOME IN THE STEAD

By Leave a Comment

DARE TO – BELIEVE – BELONG – IN ORDER TO BECOME IN THE STEAD: FOR NO WORD – NO BELIEVE – NO FAITH – MEANS NO BECOMING!

In course of time, I have seen how some people just wants to wake up in the Christian faith stand in Christ Jesus, and wants everything to be just readily ready and available at their disposal at no cost and without a signal of commitment and dedication in the stead. Some wants to wake up on a Church gathering services day, get there expecting a perfect sitting set, music set, decorations set, message set, reception set, welcoming set and such like as may be applicable to make them have a beautiful atmosphere and environment to enjoy a good outlook services while they are there.

And as far as these set of Believer’s are concerned, they are to play no single act of BELONGING to the set Church they wish to serve God acceptably and worship Him worthily, – all they care about is to see that the needed atmosphere and environment to ensure that everyone hands is involved to make good and done collectively with the hearts of BELONGING is set – such can’t enjoy the BLESSEDNESS of God in becoming.

The Christian faith stead in Christ Jesus is reachable, lovable, liveable, tangible and touchable in every sense of the Believer’s life. And for each of the Believer’s to enjoy the corporate BLESSEDNESS of BECOMING in the kingdom stead of God, there’s the need to BELIEVE, BELONG in order to BECOME it in life and godliness in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“But as many as RECEIVED him, to them gave he POWER to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH” John 1:12-14.

And you can’t just BELIEVE in emptiness as a BELIEVER in Christ Jesus, otherwise you are contacting demons and strange spirits of contamination which are contagious in every respect. The Believer’s BELIEVE must be of faith-based on the Holy Scriptural WORD of God, otherwise it’s magic, bondages, sorcery and such like that have kept many in religious circus and religiosity circle, without actualising their blessedness in becoming in Christ Jesus stead.

Every Believer must come to the knowing and understanding that a NO scriptural WORD of God as the bases of our stead in Christ Jesus, means a NO FAITH to walk and please God in His BLESSEDNESS to be your reality – and that means you can’t FUNCTION in the grace, and NOT able to ensure and be assured of BECOMING in the receiving of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“STUDY and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God APPROVED (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] THE WORD of Truth” 2 Timothy 2:15/AMP Classic Edition.

It’s therefore time for you to – DARE TO BELIEVE by the scriptural WORD of truth, in order to ensure your FAITH stand in the grace to BECOME by God – and in EVERYWAY in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

For many times I have seen Church folks being very sceptical to step up for a full dedication and commitment to God’s WORD – both privately and publicly in the gatherings – towards God’s work in His Church; while yet, they wants the FULLNESS of God’s POWER and GRACE to FUNCTION and to BECOME in everyway of doing LIFE and living GODLY. And we must all know that God can’t be mocked and be taken for a ride when He wants His people to belong in order to enjoy His BLESSEDNESS in their fellowship.

“Not FORSAKING or NEGLECTING to ASSEMBLE TOGETHER [as BELIEVERS], as is the HABIT of some people, but ADMONISHING (warning, urging, and encouraging) one another, and all the more faithfully as you see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25/AMP Classic Edition.

And sometimes most of these excuse givers and absentee Believer’s, gives some frivolities reasons that are simply born out of their fear phobia or that they may lose out if they do make such act of dedication and commitment by belonging in the stead of Christ Jesus. And unfortunately some of them, with all their act of been sceptical not to belong to the church after being a believer as they believe, had not made much better of themselves, in spite of their despite toward God’s WORD, in not willing to literary obey the instructions by faith; and the knowing of the truth, that believing God and belonging His Church – the gathering of His redeemed, precious and chosen people, is there to help all irrespective, to become of God in the blessedness that’s in Christ Jesus.

“For the [true] LOVE of God is this: that we do His commands [KEEP His ordinances and are mindful of His PRECEPTS and TEACHING]. And these orders of His are not IRKSOME (BURDENSOME, OPPRESSIVE, OR GRIEVOUS). 4 For whatever is born of God is VICTORIOUS over the world; and this is the victory that CONQUERS the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is it that is victorious over [that conquers] the world but he who BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on that fact]?” 1 John 5:3-5/AMP Classic Edition.

I make BOLD to say that God is GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to His WORD and will NEVER fail and CAN’T and WON’T begin to FAIL because of YOU. And FAITH is only active to bring about results to FUNCTION and BECOME by the WORD. Faith in Christ Jesus stead, is of the WORD. FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE and neither a DOCTRINAL nor DENOMINATIONAL creed, by-law and religious dogma’s that is just there to be known and apply.

Faith is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus life access, and their justified essence in grace to stand with God. Faith is ACTING correspondingly on what you believe on God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE, while FAITH is ACTIVE. BELIEVE is the CONCEPTION and CONSEQUENCE of what you HEAR of God’s WORD, while FAITH is the action upon that conception and consequence of the hearing, to bring it into reality accordingly. Meaning a NO FAITH, means a NO access and essence for God to reward one’s endeavours to FUNCTION and BECOME in God.

“Therefore, since we are JUSTIFIED (ACQUITTED, DECLARED RIGHTEOUS, and given a RIGHT STANDING with God) THROUGH FAITH, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). 2 Through Him also we have [our] ACCESS (entrance, introduction) BY FAITH into this GRACE (state of God’s favor) in which we [FIRMLY and SAFELY] STAND. And let us rejoice and exult in our hope of experiencing and enjoying the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2/AMP Classic Edition.

“Now FAITH is the ASSURANCE (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the EVIDENCE of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]. 2 For by this [kind of] FAITH the men of old GAINED [DIVINE] APPROVAL. 3 By FAITH [that is, with an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God] we understand that the worlds (universe, ages) were FRAMED and CREATED [formed, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose] by THE WORD of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to [WALK with God and] PLEASE Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] BELIEVE that God EXISTS and that He REWARDS those who [earnestly and diligently] SEEK Him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6/AMP.

And to FUNCTION and BECOME in God, one needs to ensure that they BELIEVE in Christ Jesus and BELONG to His Church WITHOUT PREJUDICE, SENTIMENTS and DISSIMULATION, and with a daring spirit of truth and not with a fear phobia, both in doing LIFE and living GODLY. And you can then FUNCTION and BECOME what you BELIEVE upon in God’s WORD of BLESSEDNESS by God’s POWER and GRACE in Christ Jesus. Amen.

I PRAY YOU DARE TO BELIEVE BY THE WORD, TO ENSURE FAITH, IN ORDER TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous (irksome, burdensome, taskmaster). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMES the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMES the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMES the world, but he that BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“And when Jesus departed thence, TWO BLIND MEN followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. 28 And when he was come into the house, THE BLIND MEN came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, BELIEVE YE THAT I AM ABLE TO DO THIS? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it” Matthew 9:27-30.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should NOT PERISH, but have EVERLASTING LIFE. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is NOT CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“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” James 2:23.

“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.

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 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 11:22-24.

“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.

“For what saith the scripture? Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was COUNTED unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God imputeth RIGHTEOUSNESS without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are FORGIVEN, and whose sins are COVERED. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9 Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS” Romans 4:3, 6-9.

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 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 11:22-24.

“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.

“For what saith the scripture? Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was COUNTED unto him for RIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God imputeth RIGHTEOUSNESS without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are FORGIVEN, and whose sins are COVERED. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9 Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS” Romans 4:3, 6-9.

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG TO BECOME

DARE TO BELIEVE AND BELONG TO BECOME: FOR NO WORD – NO FAITH, IF YOU MUST FUNCTION TO BECOME!

It’s time for you to – DARE TO BELIEVE – in order to BECOME by God’s WORD and in EVERYWAY in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead.

Many times I have seen Church folks being very skeptical for a full dedication and commitment to God’s WORD and to His work in His Church; and yet want the FULLNESS of God’s POWER and GRACE to FUNCTION and BECOME in every way in LIFE and GODLINESS. Most reasons are simply for their FEAR PHOBIA that they may lose out if they do make such acts to be dedicated and committed. And unfortunately, their being skeptical had not made them better in spite of their despised to God’s WORD and His Church – (1 John 5:3-5).

I make BOLD to say that God is GOOD and FAITHFUL, TRUE and SURE to His WORD and will NEVER fail and CAN’T and WON’T begin to FAIL because of YOU. And FAITH is only active to bring about results to FUNCTION and BECOME by the WORD – (Romans 10:17). Faith in Christ Jesus, is of the WORD. FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE and neither a doctrinal nor denominational creed and religious dogmas that is just there to be known.

Faith is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus life access and justified essence in grace with God. Faith is ACTING correspondingly on what you believe on God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE, while FAITH is ACTIVE. BELIEVE is the CONCEPTION and CONSEQUENCE of what you HEAR of God’s WORD, while FAITH is the action upon that conception and consequence of the hearing, to bring it into reality accordingly. Meaning a NO FAITH, means a NO access and essence for God to reward one’s endeavors to FUNCTION and BECOME in God – (Hebrews 11:6).

And to FUNCTION and BECOME in God, one needs to ensure that they BELIEVE in Christ Jesus and BELONG to His Church with a daring spirit and not fear phobia, in LIFE and GODLINESS. And you can then FUNCTION and BECOME what you BELIEVE upon in God’s WORD by God’s POWER and GRACE in Christ Jesus. Amen.

I PRAY YOU DARE TO BELIEVE IN ORDER TO BECOME IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But as many as RECEIVED him, to them gave he POWER to BECOME the sons of God, even to them that BELIEVE on his name: 13 which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH” John 1:12-14.

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous (irksome, burdensome, taskmaster). 4 For whatsoever is BORN of God OVERCOMES the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMES the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMES the world, but he that BELIEVES that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“And when Jesus departed thence, TWO BLIND MEN followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. 28 And when he was come into the house, THE BLIND MEN came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, BELIEVE YE THAT I AM ABLE TO DO THIS? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. 29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU. 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it” Matthew 9:27-30.

THE NEW CREATION YOU – HAVE NO PAST

By Leave a Comment

THE NEW CREATION YOU – HAVE NO PAST: YOU CAN BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN THE GRACE!

“But to as many as did RECEIVE and WELCOME Him, He GAVE the right [the authority, the privilege] to BECOME children of God, that is, to those who BELIEVE in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name— 13 who were born, not of blood [natural conception], nor of the will of the flesh [physical impulse], nor of the will of man [that of a natural father], but of God [that is, a divine and supernatural birth—they are born of God—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified]” John 1:12-13.

If any man be in Christ, He is a NEW CREATION the Holy Writ says – is that difficult to know and understand I don’t think so. Unfortunately, many can’t comprehend that unconditionality just like the Nicodemus of John 3:1-8; because it seems so simple and easy and they intend to make it a bit complicated for themselves to realisation, before they can BECOME as God intends His free access and pass toward Him in Christ Jesus, just as it’s written:

“Therefore, if ANYONE is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; OLD things have PASSED away; behold, ALL THINGS have BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17.

I reason and know that at baby birth, watching my lovely, gracious and graceful wife bringing forth the wonderful and fabulous children to BEING, that each of them had no history for me to reckon unto them for any reason. I see in them a brand new personality arriving to CHART and THRIVE a NEW PATH of life. I saw no PAST but a NEW DAWN in them and for them to innovate, create, initiate, manoeuvre and explore the atmosphere they love and would love to have and enjoy in grace and life in humanity and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

That’s what I PERCEIVE when I gave my life to Christ Jesus – in the knowing and understanding, that my PAST has become irrelevant and a NEW me in Christ Jesus is BORN and DAWN – for uniqueness and greatness in relation to all about me in God’s REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Upon the above scenario I am emboldened to say to you – Don’t give up or go wearisome or give in to the fear phobias of starting or completing your life intended plans, purposes and pursuits because of your PAST. For your PAST can’t hold back YOUR TODAY not TOMORROW in Christ Jesus, except you don’t  BELIEVE in your NEW DAWN and PERMIT your past to have a hold on and over you. Your believe will define your corresponding act of FAITH. And you act of FAITH will define your direction of trave in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

God’s REDEMPTION for you in Christ Jesus has CERTIFIED and JUSTIFIED the ACCESS for your full JOY and HAPPINESS that your PAST is insignificance to the DONE DEED to make you a NEW CREATION. In Christ Jesus, you are now built into a NEW FOUNDATION that erased every other foundation known and unknown that have held you back religiously, culturally, traditionally and such like. Romans 5:1-2; Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 3:10-23; Colossians 2:1-23.

I want you to know full well that your FAITH in God can go killing giants and ACHIEVING GREATNESS, even when it seems all things has come to a halt, as you keep ACTING on the WORD. For FAITH is ACTING in and on what you BELIEVE on God’s eternal WORD accordingly. Meaning, nothing can stop you from BECOMING when you keep your BELIEVING-FAITH in Christ Jesus alive.

Therefore, DARE TO DREAM AGAIN, DARE TO BELIEVE AGAIN and DARE TO BECOME AGAIN. That’s what I considered to be the spirit behind every PLANS, PURPOSES and PURSUITS with an achiever mindset to BECOME in Christ Jesus stead. Amen – Romans 4:16-25.

Finally, Jesus said, “. . . ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU” (Matthew 9:29) – that means, by your FAITH in Him through His WORD, BECOME WHAT YOU BELIEVE. Romans 10:8-13.

“Therefore, if ANYONE is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; OLD things have PASSED away; behold, ALL things have BECOME NEW” 2 Corinthians 5:17.

“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.

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

” . . . FOR OTHER FOUNDATION CAN NO MAN LAY THAN THAT IS LAID, WHICH IS JESUS CHRIST. 12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13 every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is” 1 Corinthians 3:10-13.

“. . . As ye have therefore RECEIVED Christ Jesus the Lord, SO WALK YE IN HIM: 7 rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 BEWARE LEST ANY MAN SPOIL YOU THROUGH PHILOSOPHY AND VAIN DECEIT, AFTER THE TRADITION OF MEN, AFTER THE RUDIMENTS OF THE WORLD, AND NOT AFTER CHRIST. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power . . .” Colossians 2:1-23.

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that HE WHICH HATH BEGUN A GOOD WORK IN YOU will PERFORM it until the day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6.

“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. 11 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 10:8-13.

“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY or COWARDICE or FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER and of LOVE and of SOUND judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified).

PREVAILING BY THE PREVAILING WORD

By Leave a Comment

PREVAILING BY THE PREVAILING WORD: YOUR POSSIBILITIES STARTS NOW – NO MATTER HOW SMALL!

Your attitude will lead you to your altitude. You can’t live a life of procrastination and wants to prevail with a breakthrough possibilities by the WORD. You can’t PREVAIL by the WORD when you are not ready, prepared and determined to do something now by the WORD. The Word of God is in the now project just as FAITH is in the now to bring about results. It’s not what you reference, it’s what you live in the now that defines you. While you plan for tomorrow as wisdom demands, you must intentionally and unreservedly and consciously live in the now and not tomorrow to ascertain possibilities.

In the same scenario, you don’t have to postponed to start your intent by the WORD. Probably your intent is to write that book –  why starts tomorrow instead of now; or is to start that business, career or whatsoever – why starts by tomorrow instead of now; or is to kick start that needful training or skills or educational program that will enhance your opportunity – why starts by tomorrow instead of now; and why wait to take the necessary steps tomorrow instead of now with the little available to get you to greater heights; why wait until you have a full bag of finance to start a new dawn endeavour; why can’t you start from where you are and grow up into whatever you have in mind to accomplish this year. Always tell yourself that POSSIBILITY is now. And PREVAILING by The PREVAILING WORD is now and not tomorrow.

 The scripture do indicate that though our beginning may be small, that our latter end will greatly increase if you give it the right attitude – the POSSIBILITIES ATTITUDE. And that’s attitude that prevails and it’s WORD based. And possibility for the BELIEVING one in Christ Jesus stead is by FAITH. And Faith does not operate outside the WORD of God. And you have to BELIEVE the WORD before you can POSSIBLY act upon it to make FAITH active.

So therefore, if you must make all things possible about your YEAR 2023, begin from where you are now and grow into higher heights. An onward and upward trajectory is born in the hearts of those who chose to look beyond their present limitation by starting from where there are to that great place of BLOSSOMING with a THRIVING attitude not a SURVIVAL attitude. For with God they know all things are possible and to them also who believe on the ability and capacity of THE PREVAILING WORD to make it a reality.

I PRAY that God gives you wisdom and speed as you take an emboldened steps of possibility by acting on the prevailing WORD that prevails over all things in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SPEAKING INTO YOUR YEAR 2023

By Leave a Comment

SPEAKING INTO YOUR YEAR 2023: I BELIEVE AND THEREFORE SPEAK!

“. . . 37 For with God NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE. 38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; BE IT UNTO ME ACCORDING TO THY WORD. And the angel departed from her . . . 45 And BLESSED is she that BELIEVED: for there shall be a PERFORMANCE of those things which were told her from the Lord” Luke 1:26-45.

The great questions before you at this YEAR 2023 entrance may be any or more of these:

** Do you actually BELIEVE in the YOU in YOU?

** Do actually BELIEVE what you are DECLARING and SAYING and ANNOUNCING and PROCLAIMING and have DECLARED about yourself in your YEAR 2023 BLUE PRINT?

** Are you just ACTING UP and BANKING on PRESUMPTIONS or ASSUMPTIONS, which you know will definitely brings one to a place of DELUSION as before?

Just know that if you can’t BELIEVE it – that is, to CONCEIVE it, you can’t ACT on it by FAITH. You may ACT on it by FATE thinking is FAITH. FAITH is not FATE.  FAITH is of the WORD of God while FATE is on assumption in Natural sense. You need to PAUSE AND THINK – SELAH.

But if you can actually BELIEVE in your YEAR 2023 BLUE PRINT set goals – Plan, Purpose and Pursuit, then go FORTH to keep on keeping on, by SPEAKING IT FORTH and DECLARING IT FORTH as you DILIGENTLY follow suit with the resource of – TIME, EFFORT AND FINANCE – as may be applicable; you will discover and come to the realisation overtime, that, it will bring about your desires and fulfilment into reality; For when your spirit-Heart BELIEVES and MOUTH declaration AGREES in the same spirit of grace through DILIGENCE, REALITY and FRUITION is bound to BE in Christ Jesus on your behalf. Hebrews 11:6, Proverbs 22:29; Habakkuk 2:1-4.

So keep the UNWAVERING FAITH in that which you BELIEVE and trust God about it and to do it on your behalf. Know for certain that God BELIEVES in you, but do you BELIEVE in yourself?

As Apostle Paul and David the King would make known in the Holy Writ, to operate in TRIUMPH, VICTORY, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and OVERCOMER, you need to BELIEVE first; for to BELIEVE is to CONCEIVE, which means CONCEIVING a SEED as a woman would CONCEIVE first, if she must give birth to a child;  and EVERY SEED has within the potential of REPRODUCING it’s kind in ABUNDANCE when truly natured; of which in this context and at this moment, it’s to SPEAK FORTH and to keep DECLARING unto the AFFIRMATION; and to STAY on SPEAKING FORTH, until your ANSWER comes; for SURELY the CONCEIVE VISION is for an appointed time and it shall come to pass. Meaning between the time of BELIEVE – meaning CONCEPTION and to your DELIVERY, what you DECLARE TO SEE is very vital spiritually to the tangibility and realisation of your expectations. 2 Corinthians 4 13; Psalms 19:14; Romans 10:8-13.

When Two BLIND MEN in Matthew 9:27-31 came to Jesus and was asked by Him if they BELIEVE in their ability to receive their sight through Him; they shouted in their declarations – YEAH LORD! They did not just BELIEVE – CONCEIVE to see, they FOLLOWED all the way. And when questioned, they UPHELD to their BELIEVE unwavering in their DECLARATIONS; and they blind, then SAW – sight BECOMES TANGIBLE afterwards. For Jesus said to them, ACCORDING to your FAITH – ACTING on what you BELIEVE – RECEIVE your sight. Meaning, you BECOME what you BELIEVE. And they BECAME what they BELIEVE.

Another LIVING EPISTLE of this is found in Luke 1:26-45. When the Angel Gabriel spoke to Mary the Mother of our Saviour Lord and king – Jesus Christ, concerning the Birth of Christ Jesus, she did ask the Angel, how can this be or rather how can it happen, considering her position or circumstances. The Angel told her how the Holy Spirit will come upon her to make it happen. The Scripture record was that she BELIEVE, meaning she CONCEIVE the WORD and said then and on – be it into me according to your word. She was so excited in her believe and conception that she keeps DECLARING of her conception, knowing she had been told that – with God, Nothing shall be IMPOSSIBLE.

Mary in her BELIEVE – that is, in her conception, visited Elizabeth her cousin who then was also pregnant. And soon as they met, the Holy Spirit came upon Elizabeth who then went and made a vivid DECLARATION, saying – BLESSED IS SHE THAT BELIEVE FOR THEY SHALL BE A PERFORMANCE OF THOSE THINGS THAT ARE SPOKEN TO HER BY THE LORD. We know later both women gave birth to their baby – the IMPOSSIBLE becomes POSSIBLE for them. The Scripture in John 1:14 said the WORD became FLESH – meaning becomes TANGIBLE, and dwell among HUMANITY. What was a WORD spoken, when BELIEVE – CONCEIVED and WATERED by FAITH declaration, it then BECOME tangible – a reality. FAITH is ACTING on what you BELIEVE accordingly of God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE while FAITH is ACTIVE.

I say again to you, THAT YOUR BLUE PRINT for YEAR 2023, do you actually BELIEVE in it? or is it one of those NEW YEAR RESOLUTION or RELIGIOUS DOGMAS to certify your curiosity and fleshy satisfaction?

May I say to you that –  When you can CONCEIVE of God by His WORD and go FORTH DECLARING it, you CREATE the atmosphere for your needed ANSWER to MAKE you BECOME it – that is, to make it tangible and a reality in the grace wherein we stand in Christ Jesus stead – Romans 5:1-2. Just be ASSURED that today in Christ Jesus, we have the SURE WORD OF PROPHECY and the ASSURED HOLY SPIRIT living in us, to give the enabling in we need to BELIEVE – CONCEIVE and to bring FORTH, bring about a DELIVERING through DECLARATION of that which we CONCEIVED of God in our blue print. Therefore SEARCH the Scriptures to find the BELIEVING SCRIPTURES to your BLUE PRINT.

I pray that by God’s grace you will BECOME your BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.
