DOING LIFE BY CHARISMA AND CHARACTER
MORE THAN CONQUERORS
MORE THAN CONQUERORS: APPROPRIATING IN THE TRINITY OF – GRACE, LOVE AND COMMUNION!
Month MARCH by the Gregorian calendar year, is the third in the numbering of the months. And TODAY is the THIRD Day of The THIRD Month – MARCH of the year. And the number Three (3) speaks of TRINITY, as well as PERFECTION, meaning UNITY, COMPLETENESS, FULNESS, MATURITY and WHOLENESS.
And as in TRINITY in our BENEDICTION, we can appropriate the fulness, wholeness, unity, completeness, perfection and maturity of our GRACE, LOVE and COMMUNION, in our REDEMPTION rights and privileges, as MORE THAN CONQUERORS, in the light of the scriptures, as it’s written:
“The GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the LOVE of God, and the COMMUNION of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” 2 Corinthians 13:14.
“For there are THREE that bear RECORD in HEAVEN, the FATHER, the WORD, and the HOLY GHOST: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.
It thus means therefore, that our being Born Again as Believer’s in Christ Jesus is a great news; but the KNOWING and APPROPRIATING that you ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus, is more gracious and graceful. Hence, we need to APPROPRIATE the REDEMPTION rights and privileges in our moments to moments of DOING LIFE and GODLY LIVING.
Also, the KNOWING that you are REDEEMED by virtue of REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus is awesome; but it’s your being able to APPROPRIATE the essence in your day to day living in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus, as a REDEEMED child of God that is the most awesome, practical and productive in all.
And by the essence of the TRINITY in GRACE, LOVE and COMMUNION provisions in our REDEMPTION, you need to know it’s in your place in Christ Jesus, to APPROPRIATE and ENACT your redeemed position as MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. This is made possible for us to colour our worlds and to practically apply to the fulfilment of the very BEST of God in the face and phase of the changes and challenges in our WORLD of doing life today. And you must and should know without an outer of doubts, that the journey begins NOW and NOT TOMORROW, in this walk in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.

SPEAKING FORTH WHOLLY INTO YOUR YEAR WITH GRACIOUS WORDS
SPEAKING FORTH WHOLLY INTO YOUR YEAR WITH GRACIOUS WORDS: I BELIEVE AND I THEREFORE SPEAK FORTH ACCORDINGLY!
“We HAVING the same spirit of FAITH, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, and therefore have I SPOKEN; we also BELIEVE, and therefore SPEAK” 2 Corinthians 4:13.
What are you SPEAKING FORTH? Is it SCRIPTURAL and within CONTEXT? I have a simple but great thoughtful questions before you at this start up time of the YEAR and with the dawn entrance month January. I want you to take time to thoughtfully PONDER if any or more of these matters concerns you in context:
** Do you actually BELIEVE in the YOU in YOU in Christ Jesus stead?
** Do you actually BELIEVE what you are DECLARING and SAYING and ANNOUNCING and PROCLAIMING and CONFESSING to and possibly might have DECLARED about yourself in your YEAR BLUEPRINT?
** Are you just ACTING UP and BANKING on PRESUMPTIONS or ASSUMPTIONS, which you know will definitely bring one to a place of DELUSION as before?
** Do you KNOW and UNDERSTAND for yourself who you ARE, what you HAVE, what YOU’VE become of God in Christ Jesus in REDEMPTION?
** Are you living in the light of the WORD wherein God had set you FREE in Christ Jesus?
** I hope you ARE not living under the taskmaster of men that ‘do god’ to you thereby enslaving you in their vicious tutelage of extortion, control and then subjugate you to themselves instead of toward the WORD of God?
I want you to know for certainty that whatsoever that’s not of God’s WORD or rather in the CONTEXT of God’s WORD in respect of the question of consideration, is then not of the inspiration, revelation and empowerment of the Holy Spirit of God; and that indicates that you run away from it, irrespective of what it entails. 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 assumptions and presumption to anything in the natural sense [sensual, flesh] of reasons outside God’s WORD patterning to what you can: smell, hear, see, taste, feel/touch. And if yes to FATE and not to God’s WORD, then, you need to PAUSE AND THINK – SELAH.
And if you can actually BELIEVE in your God given YEAR BLUE PRINT set vision [Plan, Purpose and Pursuit], then go FORTH to keep on keeping on, by SPEAKING IT FORTH and DECLARING IT FORTH into reality as you DILIGENTLY follow suit with the resource of grace that’s available for your PRUDENCE management as may be applicable: TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL AND PEOPLE; you will discover and come to the realisation overtime, that, it will bring about your desires and fulfilment into reality and wholeness.
For when your spirit-Heart BELIEVES and MOUTH declaration AGREES in the same spirit of grace through DILIGENCE, REALITY and FRUITION is bound to BECOME as spoken in Christ Jesus on your behalf. [Hebrews 11:6; Psalms 19:14; 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 into the ability of the WORD to materialised in and through you?
“. . . 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.
“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 5:23.
It’s imperative that, as Apostle Paul and David the King in the Holy writ writings would make us to know and to see the reason and the need to BELIEVE first, as the how to operate in the realms of TRIUMPH, VICTORY, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and OVERCOMER; for to BELIEVE is to CONCEIVE the word [information, message] – which means CONCEIVING a SEED; just as a woman would have to CONCEIVE first [the seed for productivity] if she must give birth to a child; you need to know full well that EVERY SEED has within the seed, the potential of REPRODUCING the kind in ABUNDANCE when truly natured; of which in this context and at this moment it’s to nature God’s WORD and to SPEAK FORTH the WORD accordingly and to keep on keeping on DECLARING the WORD unto the AFFIRMATION of the reality – until the WORD will BECOME tangible – that’s for you to STAY-ON SPEAKING FORTH the WORD, until an ANSWER comes as it will assuredly]. [2 Corinthians 4 13; Psalms 19:14; Romans 10:8-13]; for SURELY the CONCEIVE WORD-VISION is for an APPOINTED TIME and it shall come to pass according to the Scriptures. It thus means, that, between the TIME you do BELIEVE [CONCEPTION MOMENT] and to the time of the DELIVERY [ACTUALISATION], what you do DECLARE, SAY, PROCLAIM, ANNOUNCE to SEE is very vital spiritually, unto the tangibility and realisation of your EXPECTATIONS. See how our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, went speaking forth GRACIOUS WORDS after announcing the big moment of God’s PURPOSE for Him before the audience for His onward and upward trajectory.
“And ALL bare Him [Jesus] WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED OUT OF HIS MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:22/Emphasis Mine.
“For SURELY there is an END; and thine EXPECTATION shall not be CUT OFF” Proverbs; 23:18.
“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.
“Through FAITH also Sara herself RECEIVED strength to CONCEIVE seed, and was DELIVERED of a child when she was past age, because she JUDGED him FAITHFUL who had PROMISED. 12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the seashore innumerable” Hebrews 11:11-12.
When Two BLIND MEN in Matthew 9:27-31 came to Jesus for their wholeness [healing and health], they were asked by Jesus if they BELIEVED in His ability to make them whole and to make them receive their sight accordingly through Him; they shouted in their declarations – YEAH LORD, WE BELIEVE! They did not just BELIEVE – CONCEIVE to see, they FOLLOWED all the way to see the expectations come to fruition. And when the blind men were questioned afterwards, they UPHELD to their BELIEVE unwaveringly to the same DECLARATIONS; and the blind men then SAW – received their sight afterwards [BELIEVE BECOMES TANGIBLE]. 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 [SAW] 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 as a virgin and engaged to be married. The Angel told her how the Holy Spirit will come upon her to make it happens. 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 also that she had been told, that, with God, NOTHING shall be IMPOSSIBLE.
“. . . 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.
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 the WORD spoken, when BELIEVE upon – CONCEIVED and WATERED by FAITH unwavering DECLARATION, it then BECOME tangible – a reality. For FAITH is ACTING on what you BELIEVE accordingly of God’s WORD. BELIEVE is PASSIVE while FAITH is ACTIVE.
“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 1:14.
I say again to you, THAT YOUR BLUE PRINT for YEAR 2024, DO YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE IN IT? or is it as one of those NEW YEAR RESOLUTION or RELIGIOUS DOGMAS to certify your curiosity and fleshy satisfaction?
May I say to you that – When and what you can CONCEIVE of God by His WORD and go FORTH DECLARING it, you INITIATE and 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 we need to BELIEVE [CONCEIVE] and to bring FORTH [bring about a DELIVERING] through DECLARATION of that which we CONCEIVED of God in our blueprint. 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.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“WE HAVE ALSO A MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a DARK PLACE, until THE DAY DAWN, and THE DAY STAR arise in your hearts: 20 knowing this first, that NO PROPHECY of the scripture is of any PRIVATE interpretation. 21 For THE PROPHECY came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were MOVED by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:19-21.

THE GREATER ONE LIVES INSIDE YOU
THE GREATER ONE LIVES INSIDE YOU: HE’S FOR YOU AND WITH YOU!
“I THANK my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy LOVE and FAITH, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the COMMUNICATION of thy faith may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:4-6.
We ARE of God and not of the World where the enemy and cohorts of our FAITH tend to thrive about. And the greater one – our God in trinity dwells in us. And it’s as we communicate in and by faith, and in acknowledgement of His indwelling presence in us, of the good deeds done in us in Christ Jesus that we become effectual – productive and results oriented. Even as God did promise to be with us and to dwell in us according to the Holy writs as written:
“And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another COMFORTER, that he may ABIDE WITH you for ever; 17 even the Spirit of TRUTH; whom the WORLD CANNOT receive, because it SEETH him not, neither KNOWETH him: but ye KNOW him; for he dwelleth WITH you, and shall be IN you” John 14:16-17.
“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is HE that is IN YOU, than he that is in the WORLD. 5 They ARE of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.
There’s no more need to live in FEAR and be afraid, for in Christ Jesus, there is DOMINION over SIN and its EFFECTS: POVERTY, SICKNESS AND SPIRITUAL DEATH. This is made possible because of the GREATER one that lives IN you and WITH you, and causing you to be TRIUMPHANT, VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMER, MORE THAN CONQUERORS and in DOMINION in every place in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
“Now THANKS be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh MANIFEST the savour of his KNOWLEDGE by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.
“Forasmuch then as the children are PARTAKERS of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise TOOK PART OF THE SAME; that through DEATH he might DESTROY him that had the POWER of death, that is, the devil; 15 and DELIVER them who through FEAR of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage” Hebrews 2:14-15.
“For God hath not GIVEN us the spirit of FEAR; but of POWER, and of LOVE, and of a SOUND MIND” 2 Timothy 1:7.
For God is IN you, He’s FOR you and He’s WITH you in everyway in Christ Jesus Stead, to REIGN and RULE in DOMINION over the dominion and limitations of sin and it’s effects that had grips over us, prior to our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
“For he hath MADE him to be SIN for us, who KNEW NO SIN; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God IN him” 2 Corinthians 5:21.
“For SIN shall NOT have DOMINION over you: for ye are NOT UNDER the law, but UNDER grace” Romans 6:14.
Therefore, take your stand in grace in Christ Jesus stead to thrive, colour your worlds and live a purposeful, meaningful and fulfilling life. For the GREATER ONE lives inside you. He’s FOR you and WITH you in everyway in doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall REIGN in life by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: 21 that as sin hath REIGNED unto death, even so might grace REIGN through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21.
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall REIGN on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

THE KINGDOM DEMAND: “OCCUPY TILL I COME”!
THE KINGDOM DEMAND: “OCCUPY TILL I COME”!
“. . . 12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, OCCUPY TILL I COME . . .” Luke 19:11-27.
Enjoying the enabling grace in the faith of BEING BORN of God is only as authentic and effective and effectual, to as much as you choose and be determined to take a stand to ensure and be assured, that you give no room for fallacy and any contrary to stain and pollute your TESTIMONY of God in Christ Jesus stead.
The kingdom DEMAND for each one of the Believer’s in Christ Jesus is to – “OCCUPY TILL I COME”. It’s not an ADVICE to pick cherry and not of a choice to agree or disagree upon. It’s an ORDER, a COMMAND, a MANDATE and an ASSIGNMENT to be willingly obeyed if you and I must eat the good of the land as we do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead, Amen [Isaiah 1:19]. And because God in His word of instruction and command is not given to be a taskmaster, or burdensome, or irksome or grievous, He has already made available His enabling endowments to ensure and assure that obedience to His WORD gives peace and tranquility irrespective and without prejudice.
“For this is the love of God, that we KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER]” 1 John 5:3.
The kingdom DEMAND as to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” in this context, is to ensure that you are not living less or out of what you ARE of God in Christ Jesus, in REDEMPTION, because you ARE His and the epistle that’s being seen and read of all men as written:
“Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? 2 Ye ARE our EPISTLE written in our hearts, KNOWN and READ of all men: 3 forasmuch as ye are MANIFESTLY declared to be THE EPISTLE of Christ MINISTERED by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart” 2 Corinthians 3:1-3.
And as being God’s Epistle or open letter that’s being read and known of men in Christ Jesus, it’s imperative that you live to ensure and assure that the fulness of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS is at work upon your life in all wisdom in graciousnesss and gracefulness. And you are not undermined by any means by the bigots of religion and religiosity, sectarianism and denominationalism, traditional dogmas, creed, make belief and such like that makes the WORD of God of no effect in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Meaning, as an EPISTLE of God to humanity, you ARE ensuring and assuring that you are STANDING uncompromisingly and unreservedly for who you ARE without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation by FAITH and not limited in this endowed GRACE to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” as one that’s:
** A NEW CREATION of God in Christ Jesus stead [2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 6:14-16]
** God’s AMBASSADOR/REPRESENTATIVES in Christ Jesus stead [2 Corinthians 5:20].
** A MORE than conquerors in Christ Jesus stead [Romans 8:37].
** An OVERCOMER in Christ Jesus stead [1 John 5:4-5; Revelation 12:11].
** VICTORIOUS in Christ Jesus stead [1 Corinthians 15:57].
** TRIUMPHANT in Christ Jesus stead [2 Corinthians 2:14].
** REDEEMED in Christ Jesus stead [Colossians 1:12-14/Amplified; Ephesians 1:7; Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29; Revelation 1:5-6; Revelation 5:9-12]
** A CHOSEN GENERATION, a HOLY NATION, A PECULIAR PEOPLE etc in Christ Jesus stead [1 Peter 2:9-10].
** . . . and MANY SUCH LIKE . . . in Christ Jesus stead.
It’s your moment and time now, to take a gracious STAND, by standing in grace by faith of ensuring and assuring of who you ARE, AGAINST any onslaughts and anything that contradicts and goes contrary to your REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus; and to take a stand against anything or forces as may be PERPETUATED by the enemy and cohorts of your FAITH; and against satanic cohorts interfering on you to intentionally and pragmatically take a stand in the grace to “OCCUPY TILL I COME”, as a demand of the kingdom.
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.
For we live in the perilous times and days wherein the enemy and cohorts are out there as PERVERTERS of the Gospel – and we must vehemently resist their mode of operandi in everywhere by the WORD and in the leadership power of the Holy Spirit, to keep the FAITH wherein we stand by GRACE, ensure and assured for our good and our hearers. It’s time not to be complaining and arguing and lazing around sluggishly and slothfully with the enemy and cohorts, but to stand tall and be vigilant, to resist, and to earnestly contend in the faith by the grace in Christ Jesus, against all the onslaughts that’s outplaying to stop us from the kingdom mandate and demand to – “OCCUPY TILL I COME”.
“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a ROARING lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT [WHOLE, COMPLETE], STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you” 1 Peter 5:8-10/Emphasis Mine.
“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would PERVERT THE GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If ANY MAN PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have received, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9.
“Beloved, when I gave all DILIGENCE to write unto you of the common salvation, it was NEEDFUL for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should EARNESTLY CONTEND for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are CERTAIN MEN CREPT IN UNAWARES, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, UNGODLY men, turning the grace of our God into LASCIVIOUSNESS, and DENYING the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ” Jude 1:3-4.
When you ARE able to take your stand FOR your redemption REALITIES and take stand also AGAINST any form of the enemy and cohorts strategy and crafty acts of deception in grace by God in Christ Jesus, you ARE indeed living by the Kingdom demand to “OCCUPY TILL I COME”.
Therefore, raise your head up, shoulders high and walk on your high heels of FAITH by the GRACE wherein you STAND, by God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, while enjoying the fulness and purpose to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” mandate.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then WE ARE AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.
“Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS CAUSETH us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his KNOWLEDGE by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.

“Brethren, be FOLLOWERS together of me, and MARK them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. 18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that THEY ARE THE ENEMIES OF THE CROSS of Christ: 19 whose end is destruction, whose God is their BELLY, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) 20 For our CONVERSATION is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to SUBDUE all things unto himself” Philippians 3:17-21.

IN THIS ENVIABLE SMART GENERATION
IN THIS ENVIABLE SMART GENERATION: BE LED OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN ALL YOU DO!
“. . . 14 For as many as ARE LED by the Spirit of God, they ARE the sons of God . . .” Romans 8:9-16.
We live in an enviable smart generation; it’s a gracious and graceful place to be; and to triumphantly live and thrive meaningfully and purposefully, one needs to be watchful and connected; and to be connected to the one who is able to HELP us to stay ABOVE ONLY in the midst of all the NOISE around it – and that person to help us is the BLESSED Holy Spirit. And by being LED of the Holy Spirit in ALL you do, you can both please the Father God and live faithfully on His merit on earth in this seamless, smart, and digitised generation.
“Likewise the Spirit also HELPETH our infirmities: for we know not what we should PRAY for as we OUGHT: but the Spirit itself maketh INTERCESSION for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And He that SEARCHETH the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God” Romans 8:26-27.
Don’t Be Deceived by any nor be mistaken by self errors, it’s time for you to exercise yourself into the realm of VICTORY, TRIUMPH, OVERCOMER, MORE THAN CONQUERORS by engaging yourself with the TIMELESS SCRIPTURAL TRUTH called the HOLY BIBLE. You need to – READ and STUDY and SEARCH the SCRIPTURES for self discovery that will give and lead you into self recovery in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. If I may ask you today, HOW MUCH ARE YOU READING and STUDYING and SEARCHING THE WORD in context and comparison to your WATCHING AND VIEWING photos and videos on social media platform and such like.
Today, we are carried away with image photos and videos, which most times may be photoshopped, disfigured, distorted, dotted, adulterated and twisted as the creators of such, while many buy into them, analysed them and transmit them on baseless information to vulnerable hearts. You need to be very careful, vigilant and swiftly alert these days; and much more, be LED of the Holy Spirit through the WORD of God if you want the best and FULNESS of our God in this challenging but enviable generation.
“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be ALERT, VIGILANT and CAUTIOUS at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, PROWLS around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking SOMEONE to devour. 9 But RESIST him, be firm and steadfast in your faith [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.] 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]. 11 To Him be dominion (power, authority, sovereignty) forever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11/Amplified.
It’s through the TIMELESS SCRIPTURAL WORD that’s BREATHED by the Holy Spirit that we can do life and live godly with this TIMED GENERATION in spite of all the awesome happenings in it.

THE UNPARALLELED ARMY: EXERCISING THE USE OF THE WEAPONRY OF WAR FOR WARFARE!
THE UNPARALLELED ARMY: EXERCISING THE USE OF THE WEAPONRY OF WAR FOR WARFARE!
It’s time as an unparalleled army of God in Christ Jesus, to exercise the KNOW-HOW to be THE COMBATANT and MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER with the ARMOURING for warfare –
and THE ANTIDOTE to deal with the ENEMY and COHORTS WILES and ASSAULT.
“Through God we shall do VALIANTLY (VICTORIOUSLY): for He it is that shall TREAD (TRAMPLED) DOWN our ENEMIES” Psalms 60:12 Emphasis Mine.
It may not surprise you on how much yearly in budgetary investment that’s showcase for military might by some nations. Their intent is to ensure that both their OFFENSIVE and DEFENSIVE mechanism along with the training of their combatants military forces are safely set at the top of the range for combating. This they do as a measure to stand out among other nations and to ensure the measure of warning signs on their national neighbourhoods and competitors on how prepared they are in any battle’s that may arise – be it on land, air and sea and such like.
Today, lots of nations are investing heavily to fight cyberspace wars against many factors in the sphere and while others are on terrorism’s of various sphere. This is to tell you that the ENEMY and COHORTS are are at wars naturally as you can hear or look or see or read about of various places and some are near you or your are a part of the national wars and warfare; while some are undergoing some threatenings and others are at an international war investment in various continent of the world. In each case WEAPONRY are involved with personal answering to their commandants and head of state as commissioned.
DESPITE all the huge investments in these natural nation’s, life’s are lost, weaponry weapons are destroyed while some goes obsolete in order to give room to new innovations in technology. This natural wars and warfare’s are at vast difference from the wars and warfare’s which the unparalleled army’s of God in Christ Jesus is engaged with; and are equally located and stationed in every territory of the world beyond the limits and boundaries of nations and national limitations.
As in the humanly made army described above that are limited in nature in comparison to the divinely arranged spiritual army, as ascribed as the UNPARALLELED ARMY – which is the Church of God in Christ Jesus – the weaponry weapons in use for warfare are not carnal – meaning are not man-made or humanly crafted. The weaponry weapons in use by the UNPARALLELED ARMY are not external as in the world; and are spiritual made as an OFFENSIVE and DEFENSIVE armour for spiritual warfare. For our warfare are spiritual and not fought or battle in the flesh (physical) though it has physical effect, hence our armour are expected to be PUT ON 24/7 by God’s unparalleled army in order to be always readily ready to triumph in Christ Jesus stead in every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14. This is also explained in full as enjoined in the epistle scripture of Ephesians 6:10-18, as instructed by Apostle Paul to the Church of Ephesus. It’s by PUTTING ON this OFFENSIVE and DEFENSIVE armour that we can be able to stand AGAINST the enemy and cohorts in every phase of warfare in our walk of FAITH in God in Christ Jesus stead.
“. . . 11 PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST THE WILES of the devil. 12 For we WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, but AGAINST principalities, AGAINST powers, AGAINST the rulers of the darkness of this world, AGAINST spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole ARMOUR of God, that ye may be able to WITHSTAND in the EVIL day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your LOINS GIRT ABOUT WITH TRUTH, and having on the BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS; 15 and your FEET SHOD with the preparation of THE GOSPEL OF PEACE; 16 above all, taking THE SHIELD OF FAITH, wherewith ye shall be able to QUENCH all the FIERY DARTS OF THE WICKED. 17 And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, which is THE WORD of God: 18 PRAYING ALWAYS WITH ALL PRAYER and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints . . .” Ephesians 6: 10-18.
It must be noted that the armouring for our warfare to battle against the WILES of the enemy and cohorts mode of operandi – atevery and all their forms of manifestations, against our FAITH in Christ Jesus – are readily available for our disposal and utilisation. Our place in Christ is to EXERCISE the rights and privileges in the FAITH upon which we stand in Christ Jesus in order to enact, authentic and put the weapons and armouring into use to ensure and assure the essence and purpose for which it’s been given to us all – as the REDEEMED of God in Christ Jesus stead.
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.
For when our grandstanding PURPOSE are not exercise or utilised, and misused, the enemy rule and reign – hence there are many REDEEMED today that are still struggling in their walk and work with God, for not their inability to EXERCISE or be EXERCISING the SURELY and ASSURED weaponry weapon to bring ALL the works of the enemy and cohorts down as Jesus and the early Disciples – called Apostles did exercise ahead of time before us all Christ Jesus stead.For we are enjoined in this scripture to:
“For though we WALK in the flesh [as mortal men], we are not CARRYING ON our [spiritual] WARFARE according to the flesh and using the WEAPONS of man. 4 THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT PHYSICAL [weapons of flesh and blood]. Our WEAPONS are DIVINELY POWERFUL for the destruction of fortresses.5 We are destroying sophisticated arguments and every exalted and proud thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought and purpose captive to the obedience of Christ, 6 being ready to punish every act of disobedience, when your own obedience [as a church] is complete” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6/Amplified.
“Behold, they shall SURELY GATHER TOGETHER, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. 16 Behold, I have CREATED the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an INSTRUMENT for his work; and I have CREATED the waster to destroy. 17 No WEAPON that is FORMED AGAINST thee shall PROSPER; and every TONGUE that shall rise AGAINST thee in JUDGMENT thou shalt condemn. This is the HERITAGE of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord” Isaiah 54:15-17.
Herein are some major spiritual weaponry or armouring to be exercised to put to use in order – to authenticate and enact and realised our VICTORY in ALL battles and warfare:
** a. EXERCISING the spirit of being always on your UNIFORM – SPIRITUAL
ARMOURING and WEAPONRY – Ephesians 6:10-18.
** b. EXERCISING the WORD of FAITH (Knowledge and understanding of the WORD and Faith
declaration or Confession of the WORD accordingly) – Mark 11:22-23;
Luke 4:1-3; Luke 4:1-13 (Deuteronomy 8:3; Psalms 91:11-12);
Revelation 12:11; Matthew 8:16; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 2:15; 1
Peter 5:8-9; John 6:63; Hebrews 10:23; Proverbs 6:2; Romans 10:8-10.
** c. EXERCISING the NAME of JESUS – Luke 10:17; Philippians 2:9-11; Acts
4:12; Acts 3:6-7; 1 Timothy 2:5; Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:16-20; John 14:12-17.
** d. EXERCISING the BLOOD of JESUS – Revelation 12:11; Hebrews 9:12;
Colossians 1:14: Ephesians 1:7; Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 1:5-6.
** e. EXERCISING the Power of PRAISE and WORSHIP – Psalms 149; Psalms 150; Psalms 8:2;
2 Chronicles 20:20-25, Joshua 6:1-21.
** f. EXERCISING the PLACE of PRAYERS and FASTING – Acts 4:23-31; Acts 6:4; Mark 1:35; Matthew 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13; Matthew 17:13-21/Mark 9:14-29; Luke 18:1-8; James 5:13-16; Mark 6:12-13. Matthew 6:5-18.
** g. EXERCISING the Leadership of the Holy Spirit – Acts 1:8; Luke 24:49; John 3:8; John 16:13-15; Romans 8: 11-16, 26-27; Jude 1:20; Ephesians 6:18.
And there are three strategic WILES and MODE of OPERANDI that are scriptural known in use by satanic and cohorts against our FAITH in Christ Jesus; and for each we are fully informed with the Scriptural ANTIDOTE that can and will always COMBAT the enemy and cohort wiles as we are enjoined to:
“PUT ON THE WHOLE Armour of God, that ye may be ABLE to STAND AGAINST the WILES of the DEVIL” Ephesians 6:11.
Herein are the ENEMY and COHORTS wiles and mode of Operandi and our instructed antidote to note about them and the how to deal with their craft and cunning tactics accordingly:
- AS A ROARING LION – 1 Peter 5:8.
ANTIDOTE: 1 Peter 5:9; James 4:7.
- AS A WOLF IN SHEEP CLOTHING – Matthew 7:15.
ANTIDOTE: Matthew 7:16, 20.
- AS AN ANGEL OF LIGHT – 2 Corinthians 11:13-15.
ANTIDOTE: 1 Corinthians 12:8-10.
Suffice to know full well that overtime, one thing is certain and it’s worth noting that – Kingdoms, Nations, Empires, Politicians, Political and Military dictators, Kings and Rulers that have covenanted with satan and cohorts to do evil and wickedness, have risen and fallen – lost their greatness and collapsed, reigned and died – yet the Church of God in Christ Jesus, hallelujah, the greatest and only UNPARALLELED ARMY force that’s universally located and stationed – and known on earth, beneath the earth and in the heavens, keeps marching on triumphantly in the face of absolute oppositions and challenges – and all these in spite of all the attacks of the ENEMY and COHORTS on God’s mandate – plan, purpose and pursuit through His UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
“Crowns and thrones may perish
Kingdoms rise and wane
But the Church of Jesus constant will remain:
Gates of hell can never
‘Gainst that Church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise –
And that cannot fail” – *S. Baring-Gould*
The UNPARALLELED ARMY, the CHURCH of God is undaunted in everyway of the challenges that are emanating today and any day in future, because the Kingdom purpose and cause is of God and it’s an EVERLASTING KINGDOM; and thus endures and will endures through ALL GENERATIONS, irrespective of the challenges, opposition and difficulties in the path way as we see daily in all the multimedia channels and events near you.
“Thy KINGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM, and thy DOMINION endureth throughout ALL GENERATIONS” Psalms 145:13.
“For THE KINGDOM is the Lord’s: and he is the GOVERNOR among THE NATIONS” Psalms 22:28.
The militant-like soldier – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, is at WAR with the FLESH within; and without, at WAR with the enemy and cohorts that’s against our FAITH in Christ Jesus; at WAR with spiritual forces and principalities and powers in heavenly and earthly places of doing life; at WAR with man-made religious dogmas and denominational entanglement and doctrinal sectarian bonds and traditional bye-laws and creeds in the name of God and at war with many such like as may be identified by the Holy Spirit in the WORD of God as He leads the Church – you, local and universal.
“FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses” 1 Timothy 6:12
“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT (SMARTLY SENSITIVE, ALERT); because your ADVERSARY THE DEVIL, AS A ROARING LION, WALKETH ABOUT, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same AFFLICTIONS are accomplished in your BRETHREN that are in THE WORLD. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE YOU. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11;
And because we ARE at war and warfare entails, it takes a spirited combatant Militant-Like Soldier stand to combat to win and triumph daily and always as Apostle Paul admonished Timothy in the Holy writ of 2 Timothy 2:1-5. And to be a Soldier of Christ under the heavenly, wherein our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ is the captain of the host of God’s unparalleled army on earth with the angelic assisted army is a promise of full assurance of victory, triumph, overcoming and such like. Joshua 5:13-15. And this rare privilege to be a Militant-like Soldier is made possible by the grace of God and that gives us in earthly sphere the right to be His ambassadorial and representative in Christ Jesus stead – 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. And as such, there’s no room for errors and perversions in our walk in His stead. We need to war lawfully and obediently otherwise we will be court-martial and be declared upon with a “PERSONA NON GRATA” statuesque for woefully defiling and disobeying orders as expected. 2 Timothy 1:1-5; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.
Be assured that our weaponry weapon is sure, assured to bring all things under God’s control. For in in Christ Jesus all things and flesh – animate and inanimate are subdued and SUBJECTION to the captain of the host of God’s unparalleled army. (John 17:2; John 13:3; Philippians 3:20-21; Matthew 28:18; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 10:17-20).
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his SWORD DRAWN IN HIS HAND: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; but as CAPTAIN OF THE HOST of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant? 15 And THE CAPTAIN of the Lord’s host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so” Joshua 5:13-15.
“Finally, my brethren, be STRONG in the Lord, and in the POWER of his might. 11 PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST THE WILES of the devil. 12 For we WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, but AGAINST principalities, AGAINST powers, AGAINST the rulers of the darkness of this world, AGAINST spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole ARMOUR of God, that ye may be able to WITHSTAND in the EVIL day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your LOINS girt about with TRUTH, and having on THE BREASTPLATE of righteousness; 15 and your feet shod with the preparation of THE GOSPEL of peace; 16 above all, taking THE SHIELD OF FAITH, wherewith ye shall be able to QUENCH all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the HELMET of salvation, and THE SWORD of the Spirit, which is THE WORD of God: 18 PRAYING always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints . . .” Ephesians 6:10-20.
“It is true that I am an ordinary, weak human being, but I don’t use human plans and methods to WIN MY BATTLES. 4 I use God’s MIGHTY WEAPONS, NOT THOSE MADE BY MEN, to knock down the devil’s strongholds. 5 These WEAPONS can break down every proud argument against God and every wall that can be built to keep men from finding Him. With these WEAPONS I can capture rebels and bring them back to God and change them into men whose hearts’ desire is obedience to Christ. 6 I will use these weapons against every rebel who remains after I have first used them on you yourselves and you surrender to Christ” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (LB).
“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest WAR A GOOD WARFARE; 19 HOLDING FAITH, AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having PUT AWAY CONCERNING FAITH have made shipwreck: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20.
“I HAVE FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT, I have finished my course, I have KEPT THE FAITH: 8 henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing” 2 Timothy 4:7-8.
“Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. 16 Behold, I have CREATED the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an INSTRUMENT for his work; and I have CREATED the waster to destroy. 17 No WEAPON that is FORMED AGAINST thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise AGAINST thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the HERITAGE of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord” Isaiah 54:15-17.
“ASSOCIATE yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be BROKEN in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. 10 Take COUNSEL TOGETHER, and it shall come to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: FOR GOD IS WITH US. 11 For the Lord spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying, 12 SAY YE NOT, A CONFEDERACY, to all them to whom this people shall say, A CONFEDERACY; neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid. 13 SANCTIFY the Lord of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread . . . 16 BIND UP THE TESTIMONY, SEAL THE LAW AMONG MY DISCIPLES. 17 And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. 18 Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. 19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? 20 TO THE LAW AND TO THE TESTIMONY: IF THEY SPEAK NOT ACCORDING TO THIS WORD, IT IS BECAUSE THERE IS NO LIGHT IN THEM . . .” Isaiah 8:9-22

“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 5:4-5.
“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is HE that is IN you, than he that is in the world. 5 They ARE of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of ERROR” 1 John 4:4-6.
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the WORD OF RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then, WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.
