YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD: ENOUGH OF THE UNNECESSARY WORRIES AND ANXIETIES OF ‘ESSESS!
 
“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.
 
If you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT this scriptural truth in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining-lluyia worries and anxieties. And to be BLESSED means to be EMPOWERED to – Succeed, Achieve, Triumph, Become, Create, Earn, Have, Prosper, Innovate and to be Favoured and such like more. And THE BLESSING of God is SORROW FREE.
 
“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES rich, and he ADDS no SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.
 
The BLESSING of God is not a CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE; but it’s the ENABLING, BESTOWED and EMPOWERING GRACE of God to create, earn and acquire these aforementioned (CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE), which most people today do fight and go crazy about no matter the cost and prize tag involved in having or getting them – (Luke 12:30-32/Matthew 6:31-34). And by these enabling, bestowed and empowering grace called – God’s BLESSING, you can create, earn and have the aforementioned in grace without such SWEAT, STRESS, DISTRESS, DEPRESSION and ALL ‘ESSESS because you KNOW and UNDERSTAND the HOW to appropriate and enact what it means to be BLESSED of God in REDEMPTION.
 
Your BLESSEDNESS is a DONE DEED in Christ. This makes you MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. Our BLESSEDNESS is first spiritual before it becomes tangible – that’s reality – physical. Your ability to appropriate and enact the BLESSEDNESS by FAITH from the realm of the spiritual, that is, in the heavenly placement wherein the BLESSEDNESS are located (Ephesians 1:3), and Christ is position and seated (Ephesians 1:20) and we are position and seated in Christ Jesus at the right hand of God the Father (Ephesians 2:6). Knowing and having this understanding justifies why we are enjoined to lay our TREASURES above, meaning, in the heavenly, where no thieves and such like can access (Matthew 6:19-21).
 
The New Creation BLESSEDNESS of the NEW TESTAMENT, is not condition and not in any conditionality as in the OLD TESTAMENT essence that’s built and synthesised with conditionalities of an “IF” before you can access the BLESSEDNESS of God – Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-4; Revelation 5:9-12; Deuteronomy 28:1-14. For Christ Jesus in our REDEMPTION took care of the conditionalities of the old. So, let no man put you under subjection and subjective situation before your can earn your rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead after you’ve born anew as New Creation.
 
“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.
 
“And it shall come to pass, IF thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and all these BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God . . . 9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, IF thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways . . 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; IF that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them . . .” Deuteronomy 28:1-14.
 
Therefore, APPROPRIATE and ENACT the scriptural TRUTH in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining-lluyia worries and anxieties and begin to enjoin your REDEMPTION provisions in Christ Jesus stead.
 
Have a BLESSED (an EMPOWERED) day. And be emboldened to say to somebody today – “YOU ARE BLESSED” – Meaning, Be EMPOWERED TO SUCCEED in LIFE and GRACE. Amen.

YOU ARE BLESSED – JUST APPROPRIATE AND ENACT IT IN GRACE TODAY.

“GRACE and PEACE be MULTIPLIED unto you through the KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us ALL THINGS that PERTAIN unto LIFE and GODLINESS (GODLY LIVING), through the knowledge of him that hath CALLED us to GLORY and VURTUE: 4 whereby are GIVEB unto us exceeding GREAT and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having ESCAPED the CORRUPTION that is in THE WORLD through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4.

BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES

By Leave a Comment

BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES: BE A – WITNESS – LEADER – AND COMMANDER – AN OVERCOMER – IN YOUR WORLDS!

“Behold, I have GIVEN him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.

We live today in a very challenging and difficult times – individuals, families and collective society are facing all sorts – both privately and publicly in thoughts or and indeed, to various segments of wants and needs. And the height of trials, temptations and seduction are increasing and mounting up the more especially for the Believer in Christ Jesus – and it’s simply because the enemy and cohorts, knows their days and times are numbered and time is running out on them. But do you as a Believer in Christ Jesus, KNOWS and UNDERSTANDS THE TIMES that you are currently living and running on in God’s schedule? Do you as a BELIEVER in Christ Jesus stead, do really UNDERSTAND your timeline just as the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR did to be exclusively different and unique to be leaders?  Do you know and understand what you OUGHT to do to LEAD and to be the COMMANDER – meaning to be in charge – than blaming others for your limitations as an entitlement?

“And of the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR, which were men that had UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES, to KNOW what Israel OUGHT to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and ALL THEIR BRETHREN were at their COMMANDMENT” 1 Chronicles 12:32.

“Behold, I have given him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

Some of the trials, temptations and challenges tends to make one go along with the flow, even when you know full well, it leads to sin and sinful behaviour, while others events are obvious that it may or will cost you your career, leadership, marriage, relationship, opportunity, integrity, position, shame, embarrassment and such like. There’s the need to know that the appetite for the craziness because everyone is doing it or it appeals to you specially or it’s an avenue of meeting and solving the problems and difficulties you are going through may ends badly as a Believer in Christ Jesus; especially when you know it’s obvious it contradicts the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH that can sets one free, and being able to know the needs to uphold in the face of any heights of such trials and temptations, the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH.

“There hath NO TEMPTATION taken you but such as is COMMON to man: but God is FAITHFUL, who will not SUFFER you to be tempted ABOVE that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, FLEE from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; JUDGE [EXAMINE] ye what I SAY” 1 Corinthians 10:13-15.

“Prove all things; HOLD FAST that which is good. 22 ABSTAIN FROM ALL APPEARANCE OF EVIL. 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be PRESERVED BLAMELESS unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:21-23.

May I announce to you that there is an enabling grace in God to say NO. I mean to say again NO and NO and to sound it loud – NOOOOOOOOOO (is there an English word as such a loud NO, I don’t think so, just an expression). It thus means that, there is an enabling of God in grace to overcome the little and great height challenges in your worlds of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus. Sometimes you need to run away and in some cases to flee from every appearance of that which defile the enabling of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in your life.

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT AND GODLY LIVES IN THIS PRESENT AGE, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you” Titus 2:11-15 NIV.

The ENEMY and COHORTS knows your WORTH. Do you know your WORTH? And they have prized, and price tagged on you. Do you know God’s prized and price tagged on you in REDEMPTION just as He said of Job (Job 1:6-12), I KNOW him and of Abraham (Genesis 18:17-19), I KNOW him. Can God say he KNOWS you, knowing you will uphold your being in Him by the enabling grace He has given to you to say NO, or RUN or FLEE when it’s obviously necessary that your POSSIBILITIES by God is about to be jeopardize by self, the world and probably the devil and cohorts. You know the drill, yeah, you know the drill. Take a STAND in grace today. Romans 5:1-2; Ephesians 6:10-14; 1 Peter 5:8-10.

I make bold to say that you are a World made Overcomer in Christ Jesus. The default is in you in Christ Jesus stead to face trials, temptations and such like and still OVERCOME. James 1:2-8; 1 Corinthians 10:13-15. You can make it a reality and possibility by Believing and acting accordingly in FAITH. Romans 5:1-2; Hebrews 11:6. This is the VICTORY that helps you overcomes your worlds of doing life and living godly – it’s your FAITH on the Scriptural truth to say NO or RUN or FLEE when necessary for your good and the good of others especially too, who looks up to you to ensure TESTIMONY of GRACE and TRUTH in our God. Revelation 12:11. Revelation 19:10.

I pray today that you be emboldened and endeavour to ensure that the enabling grace of God within you works for you to be and remain the OVERCOMER and VICTORIOUS, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and TRIUMPHANT Believer of God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. (1 Corinthians 15:57; Romans 8:37; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 John 5:4-5).

Have an awesome day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE

By Leave a Comment

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE: FOR IN GOD IN GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS – AGE DOESN’T LIMIT ANY IN FRUITFULNESS!

God gives the enabling grace – anointing – to make us FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in Him. And it is an indication of Him being our ROCK and no UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in all His ways. Psalms 92:12-15; 2 Corinthians 5:21.

The act of FLOURISHING and FRUITFULNESS is not limited to few. It’s tangible, available, reachable and liveable to all, even at OLD age – FOR THERE’S NO LIMITATIONS IN GRACE – Galatians 3:26-29; Psalms 92:12-15. Hence, there’s no room to make excuse, complain, blame and to assume there’s someone responsible and accountable for your UNPRODUCTIVE and UNFRUITFUL state in life, when and while all signs and indications of blossoming and flourishing are there. If there’s anything to blame, it’s ones IGNORANCE to THINK that a mere blossoming and flourishing is sufficient without FRUITFULNESS. Unfortunately, God winked at ignorance. Acts 17:30-31.

Think about this – Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, while in humanity have to rebuke with a woe to the PHARISEES and SCRIBES, who thinks that a mere paying of their TITHE is sufficient to ACCESS God’s favour and to LEGISLATE spirituality, when they overlook the essence of  FRUITFULNESS and the fruitful character of JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITHFULNESS – Matthew 23:23. THINK about it – to BLOSSOM and FLOURISH but no FRUIT does not WIN God’s favour.

Therefore, get yourself PLANTED in the house of the Lord, in order to FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Don’t be a POTTED plant that is not ROOTED in a place and taken about places, but rather be a PLANTED plant that is ROOTED in the house of the Lord, in order to experience not just the segment of flourishing and blossoming as a Palm tree and a cedar in labor, but as a FRUITFUL one in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Remember that Christ Jesus CURSED a fig tree that was BLOSSOMING and FLOURISHING without FRUIT and FRUITFULNESS. Mark 11:11-14.

I PRAY that you will be ROOTED in your PLANTED place such that you will BLOSSOM and FLOURISH in Grace, and become fruitful in all that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING – 2 Peter 1:2-4.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was HUNGRY: 13 and seeing a FIG TREE AFAR OFF HAVING LEAVES, HE CAME, IF HAPLY HE MIGHT FIND ANY THING THEREON: AND WHEN HE CAME TO IT, HE FOUND NOTHING BUT LEAVES; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, NO MAN EAT FRUIT of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it” Mark 11:11-14.

“But my HORN [my emblem of strength and power] You have EXALTED like that of a wild ox; I am ANOINTED with FRESH OIL [for Your service]. 11 My eye has looked on my foes; My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me. 12  The RIGHTEOUS will FLOURISH like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful]; They will GROW like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable]. 13 Planted in the house of the Lord, They will FLOURISH in the courts of our God. 14  [Growing in grace] they will still THRIVE and bear FRUIT and PROSPER in old age; They will FLOURISH and be vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment]; 15 [They are living memorials] to declare that the Lord is upright and faithful [to His promises]; He is my ROCK, and THERE IS NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in Him” Psalms 92:10-15 Amplified

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] SCRIBES and PHARISEES, hypocrites! For you give a TENTH (tithe) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on minor matters], and have NEGLECTED the weightier [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: JUSTICE and MERCY and FAITHFULNESS; but these are the [primary] things you OUGHT to have done without NEGLECTING the others” Matthew 23:23 Amplified.

“Let not then your good be evil spoken of: 17 for the kingdom of God is not MEAT (FOOD) and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:16-18.

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY [NO] When It Matters

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

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that OFFERS SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to SAY “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT and GODLY LIVES in this PRESENT age, 13 while we WAIT for the BLESSED hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good” Titus 2:11-13 NIV/Emphasis Mine.

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

Am here to let you know that it’s a high time to STOP making promises you CAN’T keep so that you can walk with your head up and shoulder high, and on your high heels, in grace and peace of mind. And it’s time to also let you know that it is not a crime or even a sin to say NO to a demand or gesture that wants you to do contrary to your FAITH capacity toward God in Christ Jesus stead; and much more, you don’t need to be daunted when you have to say NO to a demand due to your inability to meet up with the statuesque of others demand and the prevalence in your set environment. Don’t be the people pleaser, be God’s pleaser toward people in order to save your breath, live healthily in an onward and upward trajectory, otherwise when you fault being a people pleaser, you may be gone without remedy.

You don’t have to put yourself in a crossroad to swear or take an oath to prove your point of ability or inability – for you owe nobody an apology of what you can or cannot. Be truthful to yourself in God and be EMBOLDENED to say NO [NAY], to any unwelcome demand, just as you can say also YES [YEA] – in ALL matters of DOING life; this act to say NO and Yes in your own charged control, will help to enhance your today and tomorrow in doing life and living godly without feeling guilty.

“But ABOVE ALL THINGS, my brethren, SWEAR NOT, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither BY ANY OTHER OATH: but let your YEA be YEA; and your NAY, NAY; lest ye fall into condemnation” James 5:12/Emphasis Mine.

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

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

May I enjoin you to know that the Scriptures indicates that the justified in Christ Jesus shall live by their own FAITH in God through Him. So let nobody make you or put you through pressure to be their ANSWER and especially to their so called DESTINY HELPER; to be the ANSWERS to their PRAYERS when you are not God, knowing you are unable to fit into that shoe as been pressured. Don’t LIVE someone else life of FAITH for them – it’s unscriptural. Worst still, is for to DO God for them. Our God is a jealous God, He does not share His person and GLORY with any – BE WARN. He’s our HELP and HELPER in all life ramification and not man – so don’t do God to be classed a very good person, for Jesus Christ in humanity even rejected such pressure and acclaimed – ONLY GOD IS GOOD.

“Behold, God is mine HELPER: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul” Psalms 54:4

“God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, a very present HELP in trouble” Psalms 46:1.

“And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? THERE IS NONE GOOD BUT ONE, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments” Matthew 19:17 [Mark 10:18; Luke 18:19].

My point here is that you don’t DO God or be a godfather or an answer for any to end up being INDEBTED at your own detrimental. I am NOT saying you can’t help out for people where you can, but should endeavour to say NO without feeling guilty or ashamed in meeting up with someone else’s dear needs, especially when you know you cannot be the answer to meet up for such needs. You need to LIVE by your own FAITH as led by the Holy Spirit through God’s WORD in all capacity of life matters [Habakkuk 2:4]. Live and help within your FAITH and not in any pressure to do anything and become incapacitated for others good. That’s unscriptural.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 [Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38].

“Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black. 37 But let your COMMUNICATION be, YEA, YEA; NAY, NAY: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil” Matthew 5:36-37/Emphasis Mine.

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

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

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

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

YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD

YOU ARE BLESSED OF GOD: ENOUGH OF THE UNNECESSARY WORRIES AND ANXIETIES OF ‘ESSESS!

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

If you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT this scriptural truth in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining, worries and anxieties. And to be BLESSED means to be EMPOWERED to – Succeed, Achieve, Triumph, Become, Create, Earn, Have, Prosper, Innovate and to be Favoured and such like more. And THE BLESSING of God is SORROW FREE.

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKES rich, and he ADDS no SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.

The BLESSING of God is not a CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE; but it’s the ENABLING, BESTOWED and EMPOWERING GRACE of God to create, earn and acquire these aforementioned (CAR, PROPERTY (LAND/BUILDING), MONEY, WEALTH, RICHES, POSITION and MORE), which most people today do fight and go crazy about no matter the cost and prize tag involved in having or getting them – (Luke 12:30-32/Matthew 6:31-34). And by these enabling, bestowed and empowering grace called – God’s BLESSING, you can create, earn and have the aforementioned in grace without such SWEAT, STRESS, DISTRESS, DEPRESSION and ALL ‘ESSESS because you KNOW and UNDERSTAND the HOW to appropriate and enact what it means to be BLESSED of God in REDEMPTION.

Your BLESSEDNESS is a DONE DEED in Christ. This makes you MORE THAN CONQUERORS IN REDEMPTION. Our BLESSEDNESS is first spiritual before it becomes tangible – that’s reality – physical. Your ability to appropriate and enact the BLESSEDNESS by FAITH from the realm of the spiritual, that is, in the heavenly placement wherein the BLESSEDNESS are located (Ephesians 1:3), and Christ is position and seated (Ephesians 1:20) and we are position and seated in Christ Jesus at the right hand of God the Father (Ephesians 2:6). Knowing and having this understanding justifies why we are enjoined to lay our TREASURES above, meaning, in the heavenly, where no thieves and such like can access (Matthew 6:19-21).

The New Creation BLESSEDNESS of the NEW TESTAMENT, is not condition and not in any conditionality as in the OLD TESTAMENT essence that’s built and synthesised with conditionalities of an “IF” before you can access the BLESSEDNESS of God – Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-4; Revelation 5:9-12; Deuteronomy 28:1-14. For Christ Jesus in our REDEMPTION took care of the conditionalities of the old. So, let no man put you under subjection and subjective situation before your can earn your rights and privileges in Christ Jesus stead after you’ve born anew as New Creation.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who HAS BLESSED us with ALL spiritual BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

“And it shall come to pass, IF thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 and all these BLESSINGS shall come on thee, and overtake thee, IF thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God . . . 9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, IF thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways . . 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; IF that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them . . .”  Deuteronomy 28:1-14.

Therefore, APPROPRIATE and ENACT the scriptural TRUTH in your PRAYERS, I promise you in Christ, you will cease from all those complaining,worries and anxieties and begin to enjoin your REDEMPTION provisions in Christ Jesus stead.

Have a BLESSED (an EMPOWERED) day. And be emboldened to say to somebody today – “YOU ARE BLESSED” – Meaning, Be EMPOWERED TO SUCCEED in LIFE and GRACE. Amen.

YOU ARE BLESSED – JUST APPROPRIATE AND ENACT IT IN GRACE TODAY.

BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES

BE EMBOLDENED TO CREATE YOUR POSSIBILITIES: BE A – WITNESS – LEADER – AND COMMANDER – AN OVERCOMER – IN YOUR WORLDS!

“Behold, I have GIVEN him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8.

We live today in a very challenging and difficult times – Individuals, families and collective society are facing all sorts – both privately and publicly in thoughts or and indeed, to various segments of wants and needs. And the height of trials, temptations and seduction are increasing and mounting up the more especially for the Believer in Christ Jesus – and it’s simply because the enemy and cohorts, knows their days and times are numbered and time is running out on them. But do you as a Believer in Christ Jesus, KNOWS and UNDERSTANDS THE TIMES that you are currently? Do you as a BELIEVER in Christ Jesus stead, do UNDERSTAND your timeline just as the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR?  And what you OUGHT to do to LEAD and to be the COMMANDER – meaning to be in charge – than blaming others for your limitations?

“And of the CHILDREN of ISSACHAR, which were men that had UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES, to KNOW what Israel OUGHT to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and ALL THEIR BRETHREN were at their COMMANDMENT” 1 Chronicles 12:32.

“Behold, I have given him for a WITNESS to the people, a LEADER and COMMANDER to the people” Isaiah 55:4.

Some of the trials, temptations and challenges tends to make one go along with the flow, even when you know full well, it leads to sin and sinful behaviour, while others events are obvious that it may or will cost you your career, leadership, marriage, relationship, opportunity, integrity, position, shame, embarrassment and such like. There’s the need to know that the appetite for the craziness because everyone is doing it or it appeals to you specially or it’s an avenue of meeting and solving the problems and difficulties you are going through may ends badly as a Believer in Christ Jesus; especially when you know it’s obvious it contradicts the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH that can sets one free, and being able to know the needs to uphold in the face of any heights of such trials and temptations, the SCRIPTURAL TRUTH.

“There hath NO TEMPTATION taken you but such as is COMMON to man: but God is FAITHFUL, who will not SUFFER you to be tempted ABOVE that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, FLEE from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; JUDGE [EXAMINE] ye what I SAY” 1 Corinthians 10:13-15.

“Prove all things; HOLD FAST that which is good. 22 ABSTAIN FROM ALL APPEARANCE OF EVIL. 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be PRESERVED BLAMELESS unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:21-23.

May I announce to you that there is an enabling grace in God to say NO. I mean to say again NO and NO and to sound it loud – NOOOOOOOOOO (is there an English word as such a loud NO, I don’t think so, just an expression). It thus mean that, there is an enabling of God in grace to overcome the little and great height challenges in your worlds of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus. Sometimes you need to run away and in some cases to flee from every appearance of that which defile the enabling of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in your life.

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to UNGODLINESS and WORLDLY PASSIONS, and to LIVE SELF-CONTROLLED, UPRIGHT AND GODLY LIVES IN THIS PRESENT AGE, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you” Titus 2:11-15 NIV.

The ENEMY and COHORTS knows your WORTH. Do you know your WORTH? And they have prized and price tagged on you. Do you know God’s prized and price tagged on you in REDEMPTION just as He said of Job (Job 1:6-12), I KNOW him and of Abraham (Genesis 18:17-19), I KNOW him. Can God says he KNOWS you, knowing you will uphold your being in Him by the enabling grace He has given to you to say NO, or RUN or FLEE when it’s obviously necessary that your POSSIBILITIES by God is about to be jeopardize by self, the world and probably the devil and cohorts. You know the drill, yeah, you know the drill. Take a STAND in grace today. Romans 5:1-2; Ephesians 6:10-14; 1 Peter 5:8-10.

I make bold to say that you are a World made Overcomer in Christ Jesus. The default is in you in Christ Jesus stead to face trials, temptations and such like and still OVERCOME. James 1:2-8; 1 Corinthians 10:13-15. You can make it a reality and possibility by Believing and acting accordingly in FAITH. Romans 5:1-2; Hebrews 11:6. This is the VICTORY that helps you overcomes your worlds of doing life and living godly – it’s your FAITH on the Scriptural truth to say NO or RUN or FLEE when necessary for your good and the good of others especially too, who looks up to you to ensure TESTIMONY of GRACE and TRUTH in our God. Revelation 12:11. Revelation 19:10.

I pray today that you be emboldened and endeavour to ensure that the enabling grace of God within you works for you to be and remain the OVERCOMER and VICTORIOUS, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and TRIUMPHANT Believer of God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. (1 Corinthians 15:57; Romans 8:37; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 John 5:4-5).

Have an awesome day in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

THE BLESSING OF GOD: It’s Not MATERIAL STUFF

By Leave a Comment

THE BLESSING OF GOD: It’s Not MATERIAL STUFF As – Car, Property, Money and More!

Having material gains as CAR, PROPERTY, MONEY and MORE may be results of God’s BLESSINGS but not THE BLESSING of God. The BLESSING of God is the ENABLING and ENDOWED grace bestowed upon the BELIEVERS’ in Christ, and it’s firstly SPIRITUAL before it takes a PHYSICAL hold effect as a result of its operations and manifestations. For there are lots of people that have obtained all these mentioned material stuff above through illicit, wicked, oppressive and devilish ways. Could that be God – NO. Hence there are not the BLESSING of God.

Also, to ‘Being Blessed of God’ simply Means – to being Empowered To: Succeed, Achieved, Become, Innovate, Create, Get and such likes. For it’s THE BLESSING of God that makes one enriched in the kingdom and thus sustains one enrichment; it’s not just about having  material acquisition as money, property, car and more as known that makes one rich. For money and other material gains has wings, it comes and goes but THE BLESSING OF GOD that enriches us, ABIDES forever. Meaning, you can go being empowered to succeed again and again no matter what levels of challenges are about you. (Genesis 26:1-5, 12-25).

So, if you must crave and pursue, crave and pursue for God’s blessing and build your life on God’s blessing which will eventually enrich you and not just a pursuits on wealth or material acquisitions.

** God’s blessings are wholesome, complete, fulfilling, peaceful, all embracing and not limited to just things physical only but the total being of man – spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5:23; Luke 2:52).

** God’s blessings empowers and creates enrichment and fulfilment (Deuteronomy 8:18).

** Know also that you are blessed of God already (Ephesians 1:3/2 Peter 1:2-4), and it can be made tangible by faith – acting on the Word accordingly.

Therefore, I say to you, live on God’s Blessedness and all other things will come together timely. I pray that the blessings of God be your vehicle of enrichment in Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

“Will you set you eyes on that which is not? For RICHES certainly makes themselves WINGS; they fly away like an eagle towards heaven” (Proverbs 23:5).

“But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee POWER (Enabling) to GET (Create, Innovate) wealth, that he may ESTABLISH his COVENANT which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18.

LIVING THE BLESSED LIFE

LIVING THE BLESSED LIFE: THE BLESSING OF GOD IS WHOLESOME – AND IT’S LIFE GIVING!

“THE BLESSING of the LORD MAKES a person RICH, He ADDS NO SORROW to it” (Proverbs 10:22).

The  BLESSING of God is the ENABLING and ENDOWED grace bestowed upon the BELIEVERS’ in Christ, and it’s firstly SPIRITUAL before it takes a PHYSICAL hold effect as a result of its operations, administrations and manifestations. It thus means that THE BLESSING of God is Not MATERIAL Stuff as – Car, Property, Money, precious stones of – silver, gold, diamond and such like, as some people may do think or suggest. The Physical stuff rots, decays and expires but God’s BLESSEDNESS does not rot, decay and expire – and it’s not limited and subjected by any human, demonic or natural factors. It’s a TREASURED enabler of the heavenly for the earthly affairs in humanity.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

“Do not LAY UP for yourselves TREASURES on earth, where MOTH and RUST destroy and where THIEVES break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves TREASURES in heaven, where neither MOTH nor RUST destroys and where THIEVES do not break in and steal. 21 For where your TREASURE is, there your HEART will be also” Matthew 6:19-21.

Hence, having the material gains as CAR, PROPERTY, MONEY and MORE is/are the results of THE BLESSING of God but not THE BLESSING of God itself. However, there are lots of people that have obtained all these mentioned material stuff through illicit, wicked, oppressive and devilish ways too. Could that be considered as THE BLESSING of God? The answer is NO, NEVER, NOT AT ALL. There are not the BLESSING of God because you can’t measure God’s BLESSEDNESS from the physical possessions – for a man’s life in BLESSEDNESS does not consist or measured simply on the abundance of physical things you think you possess.

“And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of COVETOUSNESS: for a MAN’S LIFE CONSISTETH NOT in the ABUNDANCE of the things which he POSSESSETH” Luke 12:15.

There’s the need to know full that – to ‘BEING BLESSED OF GOD’ simply means to being EMPOWERED to – SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, BECOME, INNOVATE, CREATE, INITIATE, EXPLORE, GET and such like. For it’s THE BLESSING of God that makes one enriched in the kingdom and thus also sustains that enrichment of BLESSEDNESS; and it most be  noted that in the Kingdom, enrichment it’s not just about having  material acquisition as money, property, car and more as known that makes one rich.

You need to know full well that RICHES, otherwise depicted as the material gains of this world such as money and other precious material of worth has WINGS –  and they COMES to one, they can also GOES out of one’s reach, hence you can see many that were once called rich in human perception are now totally bankrupt and needy.

“Will you SET YOU EYES on that which is not? For RICHES certainly makes themselves WINGS; they fly away like an eagle towards heaven” Proverbs 23:5.

You need to know that in life and grace, it is only THE BLESSING of God that enriches and possess the assured enabling make one to ABIDE and ABOUND forever  in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. It thus means, you can be EMPOWERED to succeed again and again no matter what levels of challenges are about you even as Isaac of Abraham experience with God at famine after been at plenty at a time. Genesis 26:1-5, 12-25.

So if you must crave and pursue anything in Life and Godliness, then crave and pursue for God’s given BLESSEDNESS, that is acronym – THE BLESSING of God – and build your life on God’s given BLESSEDNESS which will eventually enrich you wholly and not just a pursuits on wealth or material acquisitions as many do or think or suggest to then depict it as God’s blessings.

THEREFORE KNOW FULL WELL THAT:

** THE BLESSING OF GOD is wholesome, complete, fulfilling, peaceful, all embracing and not limited to just things physical only but the total being of man – spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5:23; Luke 2:52).

** THE BLESSING OF GOD empowers, gives enabling, rights, privileges and creates enrichment and fulfilment (Deuteronomy 8:18).

** And You are BLESSED with THE BLESSING OF GOD as a possession already (Ephesians 1:3/2 Peter 1:2-4), and it can be made tangible today by FAITH – acting on THE WORD accordingly as you BELIEVE.

Henceforth, I say to you, live on God’s gracious BLESSEDNESS and all other things will come together timely. I pray that THE BLESSINGS of God be your vehicle of enrichment in Christ Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE

By Leave a Comment

BEING FRUITFUL – BLOSSOMING, FLOURISHING AND REJUVENATING IN GRACE: FOR IN GOD IN GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS – AGE DOESN’T LIMIT ANY IN FRUITFULNESS!

God gives the enabling grace – anointing – to make us FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in Him. And it is an indication of Him being our ROCK and no UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in all His ways. Psalms 92:12-15; 2 Corinthians 5:21.

The act of FLOURISHING and FRUITFULNESS is not limited to few. It’s tangible, available, reachable and liveable to all, even at OLD age – FOR THERE’S NO LIMITATIONS IN GRACE – Galatians 3:26-29; Psalms 92:12-15. Hence, there’s no room to make excuse, complain, blame and to assume there’s someone responsible and accountable for your UNPRODUCTIVE and UNFRUITFUL state in life, when and while all signs and indications of blossoming and flourishing are there. If there’s anything to blame, it’s ones IGNORANCE to THINK that a mere blossoming and flourishing is sufficient without FRUITFULNESS. Unfortunately, God winked at ignorance. Acts 17:30-31.

Think about this – Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, while in humanity have to rebuke with a woe to the PHARISEES and SCRIBES, who thinks that a mere paying of their TITHE is sufficient to ACCESS God’s favour and to LEGISLATE spirituality, when they overlook the essence of  FRUITFULNESS and the fruitful character of JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITHFULNESS – Matthew 23:23. THINK about it – to BLOSSOM and FLOURISH but no FRUIT does not WIN God’s favour.

Therefore, get yourself PLANTED in the house of the Lord, in order to FLOURISH and be FRUITFUL in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Don’t be a POTTED plant that is not ROOTED in a place and taken about places, but rather be a PLANTED plant that is ROOTED in the house of the Lord, in order to experience not just the segment of flourishing and blossoming as a Palm tree and a cedar in labor, but as a FRUITFUL one in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Remember that Christ Jesus CURSED a fig tree that was BLOSSOMING and FLOURISHING without FRUIT and FRUITFULNESS. Mark 11:11-14.

I PRAY that you will be ROOTED in your PLANTED place such that you will BLOSSOM and FLOURISH in Grace, and become fruitful in all that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING – 2 Peter 1:2-4.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve. 12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was HUNGRY: 13 and seeing a FIG TREE AFAR OFF HAVING LEAVES, HE CAME, IF HAPLY HE MIGHT FIND ANY THING THEREON: AND WHEN HE CAME TO IT, HE FOUND NOTHING BUT LEAVES; for the time of figs was not yet. 14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, NO MAN EAT FRUIT of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it” Mark 11:11-14.

“But my HORN [my emblem of strength and power] You have EXALTED like that of a wild ox; I am ANOINTED with FRESH OIL [for Your service]. 11 My eye has looked on my foes; My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me. 12  The righteous will FLOURISH like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful]; They will GROW like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable]. 13 Planted in the house of the Lord, They will FLOURISH in the courts of our God. 14  [Growing in grace] they will still THRIVE and bear FRUIT and PROSPER in old age; They will FLOURISH and be vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment]; 15 [They are living memorials] to declare that the Lord is upright and faithful [to His promises]; He is my ROCK, and THERE IS NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS in Him” Psalms 92:10-15 Amplified

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] SCRIBES and PHARISEES, hypocrites! For you give a TENTH (tithe) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on minor matters], and have NEGLECTED the weightier [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: JUSTICE and MERCY and FAITHFULNESS; but these are the [primary] things you OUGHT to have done without NEGLECTING the others” Matthew 23:23 Amplified.

“Let not then your good be evil spoken of: 17 for the kingdom of God is not MEAT (FOOD) and DRINK; but RIGHTEOUSNESS, and PEACE, and JOY in the Holy Ghost. 18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is ACCEPTABLE to God, and APPROVED of men” Romans 14:16-18.

Be EMBOLDENED To Say NAY

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

SELAH – PAUSE and THINK!

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Emphasis Mine).

“But ABOVE ALL THINGS, my brethren, SWEAR NOT, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither BY ANY OTHER OATH: but let your YEA be YEA; and your NAY, NAY; lest ye fall into condemnation” James 5:12 (Emphasis Mine).

“For the GRACE of God has appeared that OFFERS SALVATION to all people. 12 It TEACHES us to say “NO” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good” Titus 2:11-13 NIV (Emphasis Mine).
