The FAITH That WORKS: OPERATES In LOVE!

“For [if we ARE] in Christ Jesus NEITHER circumcision NOR uncircumcision means anything, but only FAITH ACTIVATED and EXPRESSED and WORKING THROUGH LOVE . . . 13 For you, my brothers, were CALLED to FREEDOM; only do not let your FREEDOM become an opportunity for the sinful nature (worldliness, selfishness), but THROUGH LOVE SERVE and SEEK the best for one another” Galatians 5:6, 13/Amplified.

The FAITH that WORKS it’s found in them that LOVES God. Do you LOVE God? The reason being this: ALL THINGS will always WORK for those who LOVES God as they walk in the Kingdom Cause of God’s PURPOSE for them. Meaning, they are addicted to walk in OBEDIENCE to God’s WORD to win life battles through FAITH (1John 5:3-5). FOR GOD WILL ALWAYS COMMEND WHAT HE COMMAND.

For FAITH works by LOVE. Until LOVE is enthroned in our hearts, in our day to day dealings with God and others, in RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP – there will always be a struggle in attaining to the FREEDOM we seek.

For LOVE is the summation of the LAW, and it’s unparalleled to the bondages of bye laws, traditions, oblations, creeds and dogmas of man-made enclaves to reach or please God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore – SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by LOVE” Galatians 5:6.

“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” Romans 8:28.

“Owe no man any thing, but to LOVE one another: FOR HE THAT LOVETH ANOTHER HATH FULFILLED THE LAW. 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10 LOVE worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore LOVE is the FULFILLING OF THE LAW” Romans 13:8-10.

“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” John 3:16.

“Now the end of the commandment is CHARITY (LOVE) out of a PURE heart, and of a GOOD conscience, and of FAITH unfeigned” 1 Timothy 1:5.

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 Greater LOVE hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” John 15:12-14.

“Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having LOVED his own which were in the world, he LOVED them unto the end . . . 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye LOVE one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1, 34-35.

“For this is the LOVE of God, that we keep his COMMANDMENTS: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS (BURDENSOME TASKMASTER IRKSOME)” 1 John 5:3.

“And he answering said, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy HEART, and with all thy SOUL, and with all thy STRENGTH, and with all thy MIND; and thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself” Luke 10:27.

THE FAITH THAT WORKS: IT’S FOUND IN THEM THAT LOVES GOD AND HIS WORD!

THE FAITH THAT WORKS: IT’S FOUND IN THEM THAT LOVES GOD AND HIS WORD!

 “If ye ABIDE in me, and my WORDS ABIDE in you, ye shall ASK what ye WILL, and it shall be DONE unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: CONTINUE YE IN MY LOVE. 10 If ye KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS, ye shall ABIDE IN MY LOVE; even as I have KEPT MY FATHER’S COMMANDMENTS, and ABIDE IN HIS LOVE” John 15:7-10.

There’s the need to abide in God. And abiding in God is abiding in His Word and in His love. Thus indicating that there’s no way one can say I am of God and or I am in God, while doing despite to God’s word and or God’s love. It’s not a matter of ‘either’ this and ‘or’ this, and ‘if’ this and ‘but’ these choices. Abiding in God is in abiding in Christ Jesus stead. And it’s to rooted and grounded in His love without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. And it’s in this spirit of ABIDING that our PRAYERS are heard when we ask and answered [done] in the grace in the will of God; thus, indicating much of the will of God is in ABIDING in His LOVE and His WORD to ABIDE in Him effortlessly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“That Christ may DWELL in your hearts [spirit-being] by FAITH; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 may be able to COMPREHEND with all saints what is the BREADTH, and LENGTH, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 and to Know The Love Of Christ, which PASSETH [TRANSCENDS, SURPASSES] knowledge [HUMAN SENSE], that ye might be FILLED with all the FULNESS of God” Ephesians 3:17-19/Emphasis Mine.

And to ensure God’s abiding essence to His Word and His Love, He assures that all things will always WORK together for good, for those who LOVES Him as they walk in the cause of His WORD, in His PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for them [Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:11-12]. Meaning, walking in God’s intended Plan, Purpose and Pursuit is walking in His WORD and His Love, in context and perspective.

“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” Romans 8:28.

“In whom also we have OBTAINED an INHERITANCE, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of Him who WORKETH ALL THINGS after the COUNSEL of his own WILL: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ” Ephesians 1:11-12.

Loving God is loving His WORD in Christ Jesus. When we love God’s Word we generate a living FAITH because Faith comes by the Word of God. And by that Faith we can win victorious and overcome the opposing world and system that tends to hold us back. And God’s WORD is not GRIEVOUS [IRKSOME, BURDENSOME, TASKMASTER, AND DIFFICULT]. And Loving God’s WORD is welcoming the ever-present author the Blessed Holy Spirit, who is ever present to give understanding and wisdom.

“For this is the LOVE of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [IRKSOME, BURDENSOME, TASKMASTER, AND DIFFICULT]. 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, EVEN OUR FAITH. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5/Emphasis Mine.

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

Loving God and His Word is giving yourself an opportunity to receive the direct revelation of the Holy Spirit to matters of yours without distortion and adulteration of any intermediary and interference of any man who tends to pose as mini-God to affect your life from the truth. For with God are things about you that no ears have heard, no eyes have seen nor have it entered into any man’s heart concerning you [Psalms 32:14; Amos 3:7; Deuteronomy 29:29]. And God wants to fellowship with you by the Holy Spirit to make them possible as you open your being to love Him and His word. It’s not a matter of either, you have to love Him and His word.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that LOVE Him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10/[Psalms 25:14; Amos 3:7; Deuteronomy 29:29].

Therefore, the FAITH THAT WORKS is found in those who WALK in God’s LOVE and keep to His WORD [COMMANDMENTS] in Love. Just as LOVE lubricates FAITH, the WORD sustains and keeps LOVE alive. For God will only COMMEND what He COMMAND, meaning God will honour those who walk according to His WORD – revealed and affirmed by the written WORD.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

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

“The SECRET of the Lord is with them that FEAR [REVERENCE] him; and he will shew them his covenant” Psalms 25:14.

“Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he REVEALETH HIS SECRET unto his servants the prophets” Amos 3:7.

“The SECRET things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are REVEALED belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may DO all THE WORDS of this law” Deuteronomy 29:29.

THIS CHRISTMAS – MARKS AN UNDENIABLE PROOF: THAT GOD LOVES YOU!

This December, this Christmas, marks an undeniable proof that God Loves and cares about you in Christ JESUS – who is our Saviour and Lord. Therefore, DO NOT TAKE THIS GRACIOUS AND GRACEFUL OPPORTUNITY FOR GRANTED – in having access into such a rare and great privilege in the Christ of this CHRISTMAS, in this December.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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 this is the record, that God hath GIVEN to us ETERNAL LIFE, and THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life” 1 John 5:11-12.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do LOVE Your NEIGHBOUR And The STRANGER!

“For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?” Matthew 5:46-47.

We live in a moment in history, wherein lots of people are so muchly engaged and entangled with the spirit of entitlement at another person cost, there making it impossible for some to share love because they are expecting to be the collector of love and not the giver of love as Scripturally enjoined:

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again” Luke 6:38.

More so, because of the current challenges of the unstable state of the world, community, neighbourhoods, family and such like, especially in terms of the economic atmosphere, some people are so desperate and in such a haste that the simple acts of kindness in relationship and in relating with others is diminishing. Such was the depraved of humane nature from the zealous Church folks – the Priest [Pastor] and the Levites [Choir Leader], unlike the non Church folk – the Samaritan as in Luke 10:25-37. They were  so carried away with their zealousness that they forgot the act of kindness of life resources [time, finance (cash/kind), etc] to use to help others in critical needs no matter how little [small].

“I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to SUPPORT THE WEAK, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is MORE BLESSED to GIVE than to RECEIVE” Acts 20:35.

 And many have become so commited to matter of – things and activities and programs and such like – than having a humane commitment to their fellow human beings in times of difficulties. When someone is in trouble, people are more interested in taking photo-up to create content for others to applaud and make jest over the person rather than helping out to solve the person in trouble where need be, especially when it’s within their capacity to help in that duration of time. You can see series of unwarranted and appalling images and photos in social media depicting people of all sorts that shouldn’t be taken and more so displayed but are out there – sometimes you wonder while the person taking the photo couldn’t help that child from a wicked maid or parents or leader or whoever than spending time to take photos to the point of death of such an individual while help could have been possible.

A genuine Father hearts best is in loving one’s neighbours as Christ admonished the enquirer Lawyer about who his neighbour truly was and is, in order to do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus stead Amen. [Luke 10:25-37].

If we truly wants to get into the father’s hearts best, we should endeavour to be humane in the midst of our busy schedule to love our neighbours as we do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to INHERIT eternal life?  26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how READEST thou?  27 And he answering said, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself.  28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, AND WHO IS MY NEIGHBOUR?  30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.  31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.  32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.  33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,  34 and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.  35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.  36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was NEIGHBOUR unto him that fell among the thieves?  37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, GO, and DO thou likewise” Luke 10:25-37.

“And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? 29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 and thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the FIRST commandment. 31 And the SECOND is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself. THERE IS NONE OTHER COMMANDMENT GREATER THAN THESE” Mark 12:28-31.

“But the STRANGER that DWELLETH with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt LOVE him as thyself; for ye were STRANGERS in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God” Leviticus 19:34.

THE LOVING OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

THE LOVING OF GOD: WILL CAUSE ALL THINGS TO WORK TOGETHER FOR YOUR GOOD!

“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” Romans 8:28.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him.  10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit SEARCHETH all things, yea, the DEEP things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10

Love is the working essence of all things for your good with God. If you want all things – positive or negative – to work for your good, then start loving God in spirit (hearts) and in truth (His Word).

Loving God is a deliberate conscious act from your hearts (human spirit) and not in your heads; knowing and understanding that God’s love is only poured or shared in human spirit (heart) by the Holy Spirit for a genuine expression of God’s love – Romans 5:5. This will cause all things to work for your good, as you can only make meaningful worship of God from your hearts of love towards Him.

Material instruments as Stethoscope, Scan, X-ray and more may be useful in human endeavours, yet can’t detect the human spirit, because the human spirit is eternal and not earthly. Simply put, the spirit of a man is the candle or lamp of the Lord, searching and watching all the inner depths of his heart, hence only can by all means worship God.

For Faith pleases God and Faith only functions by Love, and when Faith towards God is essence by Love, you’ve gotten hold of God for the release of His blessings upon you.

If you are desiring God’s BLESSEDNESS – just LOVE God; for ALL THINGS will work together for your GOODNESS, GRACIOUSNESS and GRACEFULNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

Today, start Loving God.

“For in Jesus Christ NEITHER circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; BUT FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE” Galatians 5:6.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.  10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.  11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God . . .” 1 Corinthians 2:9-16.

LIVE AND MAXIMISE YOUR BEST LIFE IN EVERYWAY

LIVE AND MAXIMISE YOUR BEST LIFE IN EVERYWAY: SERVE AND WORSHIP GOD IN JOYFULNESS AND GLADNESS – IN THE NOW!

The current atmosphere in the world in essence may directly or indirectly be affecting your well-being; it may be traumatizing, frustrating, beyond human comprehension and control in every sense of your thoughts and imaginations. However, it may be, I want you to know and understand as God’s redeemed, it’s your time to take advantage of the atmosphere to celebrate your moment in grace and to live your best life in the now, in everyway, no matter what betides you in the course of doing life and in the grace wherein you stand in Christ Jesus stead.

It’s time to be gracious and graceful to SERVE the LORD GOD acceptably and WORSHIP Him worthily with joyfulness and gladness in every moment in the now, else you’ll serve your enemies and the resultant effect is: hunger, thirst, nakedness, oppression, bondage and such like the more. And I am not sure that’s where you intend to be in the grace wherein God has set you free in Christ Jesus to stand in His stead.

“Because thou SERVEDST not the Lord thy God with JOYFULNESS, and with GLADNESS of HEART, for the ABUNDANCE of all things; 48 therefore shalt thou SERVE thine ENEMIES which the Lord shall send against thee, in HUNGER, and in THIRST, and in NAKEDNESS, and in WANT of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee” Deuteronomy 28:47-48.

In times like this – you need to have a personal KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of Father God in Christ Jesus in your heart thoughts in LIFE and GODLINESS. For you ARE the circumcised or circumcision in the heart – spirit man, who SERVE and WORSHIP God from the spirit being, the SIXTH sense, the sense of FAITH by the WORD of God; and you need not have any DELIGHT to SERVE and WORSHIP God from the realm of the flesh – of the five senses, that is, to – feel, smell, taste, see and hear, in order to BELIEVE and exercise FAITH in God.

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers WORSHIPPED in THIS MOUNTAIN; and ye say, that in JERUSALEM is the place where men ought to WORSHIP. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall NEITHER in THIS MOUNTAIN, nor yet at JERUSALEM, WORSHIP the Father. 22 Ye WORSHIP ye know not what: we know what we WORSHIP: for SALVATION is of the Jews. 23 But the hour COMETH, and NOW is, when the TRUE WORSHIPPERS shall WORSHIP the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father SEEKETH such to WORSHIP him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that WORSHIP him MUST WORSHIP him in spirit and in truth” John 4:19-24.

Therefore, I say to you in Christ Jesus stead:

SERVE AND WORSHIP GOD FROM YOUR SPIRIT BEING BY THE TRUTH – WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD. This thus mean you have no cause to feel LIMITED or lost in Christ Jesus. The KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING that the CHURCH that Christ Jesus is BUILDING is YOU and it is the ARCHITECTURAL building that we crave to gather therein which currently appears to be at LOCKED DOWN momentarily. So lets live our BEST life now by all means in Christ Jesus.

I pray you have an awesome, amazing, gracious, graceful and a blessed day in everyway you do LIFE and GODLINESS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And this is LIFE ETERNAL, that they might KNOW thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent” John 17:3.

“Because thou SERVEDST not the Lord thy God with JOYFULNESS, and with GLADNESS of HEART, for the ABUNDANCE of all things; 48 therefore shalt thou SERVE thine ENEMIES which the Lord shall send against thee, in HUNGER, and in THIRST, and in NAKEDNESS, and in WANT of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee” Deuteronomy 28:47-48.

“For we ARE the circumcision, which WORSHIP God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no CONFIDENCE in the FLESH” Philippians 3:3.

“For he is not a Jew, which is one OUTWARDLY; neither is that CIRCUMCISION, which is OUTWARD in the FLESH: 29 but he is a Jew, which is one INWARDLY; and CIRCUMCISION is that of the HEART, in the spirit, and not in the LETTER; whose PRAISE is not of men, but of God” Romans 2:28-29.

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers WORSHIPPED in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to WORSHIP. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall NEITHER in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, WORSHIP the Father. 22 Ye WORSHIP ye know not what: we know what we WORSHIP: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour COMETH, and NOW is, when the TRUE WORSHIPPERS shall WORSHIP the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to WORSHIP him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that WORSHIP him MUST WORSHIP him in spirit and in truth” John 4:19-24.

“And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the TESTIMONY of Jesus: WORSHIP God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy” Revelation 19:10.

“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, through the KNOWLEDGE of him that hath CALLED us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are GIVEN 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.
