THE VICTORY AND TRIUMPH STAND

THE VICTORY AND TRIUMPH STAND – POSSIBLE BY OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE: THAT’S WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS ACTIVATED TO FULFIL PURPOSE!

Everyone wants the best of God in all they do and wants to do in life and godly living; but not everyone wants to be OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH end as expected of all who WANTS the best out of God and to be FULFILLED in all about life and living godly. This I have known and have come to realise in course of time in dealing with many in the FAITH-BASED SURGERY COUNSELING on day by day basis. Some don’t want to share and partake in PRINCIPLE the RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY accorded to the CAUSE of them to be fulfilled in God in Christ Jesus stead, but still want to have it all. My dear, OBEDIENCE is the  main switchboard.

“FOR THOUGH WE WALK IN THE FLESH, WE DO NOT WAR AFTER THE FLESH: 4 (for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 and HAVING IN A READINESS TO REVENGE ALL DISOBEDIENCE, WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS FULFILLED” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

It was in OBEDIENCE that our Saviour and Lord keyed into, while in humanity, to become the author of eternal salvation toward all who  intend in God to experience same like FULFILMENT, in FAITHFULNESS and all GOODNESS to DIVINELY driven PURPOSE as it’s written concerning our Lord Jesus Christ:

“. . . 7 Who in THE DAYS OF HIS FLESH, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 THOUGH HE WERE A SON, YET LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE BY THE THINGS WHICH HE SUFFERED; 9 and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10 called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec”  Hebrews 5:1-10.

“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became OBEDIENT unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:5-11.

I learnt very early in my Christian life that REBELLION to the CAUSE of God is as equivalent to the sinful consequences apportion to one entangled with WITCHCRAFT and even STUBBORNNESS. This was learnt also, when a simple OBEDIENCE expected of King Saul caused him his throne and kingship. And some believer’s have knowingly or unknowingly forgotten that they are MADE of God in REDEMPTION to become royal priesthood – meaning, that kingship civility and priesthood was bestowed upon us in REDEMPTION. While some claim to acknowledge it, yet in OBEDIENCE to the scriptural demands to enable them TRIUMPH and be VICTORIOUS in life and godliness, are always find wanting, by their impatience as found in King Saul to act without minding that the consequences therein are sometimes fatal and irreversible. 1 Samuel 15:22-24; Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 1:5-6; 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10.

We are engaged daily in a spiritual warfare – knowingly or unknowingly, because the ENEMY and COHORTS of our FAITH in God, in Christ Jesus, works timelessly to and fro, seeking who he may devour directly or indirectly in the CAUSE of our doing life and living godly. He knows he has a short time to parade around, and needs to recruit many to be a part of his fallen state destination. And one great old tricks attributes he has and have always use and succeed, is to make people disobey the CAUSE of God in their life’s. He tried it with Adam through Eve in Eden and it works. Over the years he has fought heard to ensure many fall shorts of obeying God’s heavenly mandate upon their life’s. DON’T BE A PREY AND VICTIM FOR HIM AGAIN. 1 Timothy 1:18; 1 Timothy 6:12; 2 Corinthians 10:3-4; Ephesians 6:10-20; 1 Peter 5:8-11.

When one turns into using physical process in a set spiritual warfare, you give the ENEMY and COHORTS of your FAITH journey with God, the permission to obstruct your path of obeying the heavenly mandate. Fighting spiritual warfare in the flesh – in the sense instincts of – seeing, hearing, smelling, touching/feeling and tasting, will always allude one from the VICTORY and TRIUMPH earnestly designed of God for His people in everyway and places. 2 Corinthians 10:3-6; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 Corinthians 15:57; 1 John 5:3-5; Isaiah 54:13-17.

It is in OBEDIENCE that we find PLEASURE and fulfilment in life. It is there we can partake in the Kingdom goodness that we made to inherit of God. One key principle of OBEDIENCE, is the attitudes of having PATIENCE OF HOPE – 1 Thessalonians 1:3; Hebrews 6:12. When our FAITH is in obedience motion, to God’s heavenly mandate, we need to set PATIENCE with HOPE in the CAUSE of doing life and living godly; otherwise, we will end up like King Saul, for his impatience to wait for Prophet Samuel arrival to carry on the expected according to God’s detailed instructions. When we are in HASTE to become in life, against God’s time scale as King Saul was, we are bound to undermine our DIVINENLY giving instructions to satisfy the FLESHY Demand which works against God’s given instructions. And that’s the danger of many today. Attributing GAIN as GODLINESS. What a wrong concept to measure and legislate spirituality in heavenly mandate of God by GAINS instead of being faithful to fulfil PURPOSE, in OBEYING the God GIVEN cause for our life. Job 36:11; Isaiah 1:19; Hebrews 6:10-12; Proverbs 28:19-22; 1 Timothy 6:3-6.

Therefore, know today that you will and can be able to revenge – take charge on any ENEMY and COHORTS territories, WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS ACTIVATED TO FULFIL PURPOSE. For then you can SET THE VICTORY and TRIUMPH STAND, by OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE cause before you, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

“If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall eat the good of the land: 20 but if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 1:19-20.

“He that TILLETH his land shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN persons shall have POVERTY enough. 20 A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings:but he that maketh HASTE to be rich shall NOT BE INNOCENT. 21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for A PIECE OF BREAD that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be rich hath an EVIL EYE, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22.

“If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to WHOLESOME WORDS, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, SUPPOSING THAT GAIN IS GODLINESS: from such withdraw thyself. 6 But GODLINESS with CONTENTMENT is GREAT GAIN” 1 Timothy 6:3-6.

“And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as GREAT DELIGHT in burnt OFFERINGS and SACRIFICES, as in OBEYING THE VOICE OF THE LORD? Behold, to OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE, and TO HEARKEN than the fat of rams. 23 For REBELLION is AS the SIN of WITCHCRAFT, and STUBBORNNESS is as INIQUITY and IDOLATRY. Because thou hast REJECTED the word of the Lord, he hath also REJECTED thee from being king. 24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice” 1 Samuel 15:22-24.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast made us unto our God KINGS and PRIESTS: and we shall reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

“Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . .9 But ye are a chosen generation, a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 10 which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy” 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10.

“Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4 and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: 5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship, for OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH among all nations, for his name: 6 among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ” Romans 1:3-6.

“And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH” Acts 6:7.

I learnt very early in my Christian life that REBELLION to the CAUSE of God is as equivalent to the sinful consequences apportion to one entangled with WITCHCRAFT and even STUBBORNNESS. This was learnt also, when a simple OBEDIENCE expected of King Saul caused him his throne and kingship. And some believers have knowingly or unknowingly forgotten that they are MADE of God in REDEMPTION to become royal priesthood – meaning, that kingship civility and priesthood was bestowed upon us in REDEMPTION. While some claim to acknowledge it, yet in OBEDIENCE to the scriptural demands to enable them TRIUMPH and be VICTORIOUS in life and godliness, are always find wanting, by their impatience as found in King Saul to act without minding that the consequences therein are sometimes fatal and irreversible. 1 Samuel 15:22-24; Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 1:5-6; 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10.

We are engaged daily in a spiritual warfare – knowingly or unknowingly, because the ENEMY and COHORTS of our FAITH in God, in Christ Jesus, works timelessly to and fro, seeking who he may devour directly or indirectly in the CAUSE of our doing life and living godly. He knows he has a short time to parade around, and needs to recruit many to be a part of his fallen state destination. And one great old trick attribute he has and have always used and succeed, is to make people disobey the CAUSE of God in their life’s. He tried it with Adam through Eve in Eden and it works. Over the years he has fought heard to ensure many fall shorts of obeying God’s heavenly mandate upon their lives. DON’T BE A PREY AND VICTIM FOR HIM AGAIN. 1 Timothy 1:18; 1 Timothy 6:12; 2 Corinthians 10:3-4; Ephesians 6:10-20; 1 Peter 5:8-11.

When one turns into using physical process in a set spiritual warfare, you give the ENEMY and COHORTS of your FAITH journey with God, the permission to obstruct your path of obeying the heavenly mandate. Fighting spiritual warfare in the flesh – in the sense instincts of – seeing, hearing, smelling, touching/feeling and tasting, will always allude one from the VICTORY and TRIUMPH earnestly designed of God for His people in every way and places. 2 Corinthians 10:3-6; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 Corinthians 15:57; 1 John 5:3-5; Isaiah 54:13-17.

It is in OBEDIENCE that we find PLEASURE and fulfillment in life. It is there we can partake in the Kingdom goodness that we made to inherit of God. One key principle of OBEDIENCE, is the attitudes of having PATIENCE OF HOPE – 1 Thessalonians 1:3; Hebrews 6:12. When our FAITH is in obedience motion, to God’s heavenly mandate, we need to set PATIENCE with HOPE in the CAUSE of doing life and living godly; otherwise, we will end up like King Saul, for his impatience to wait for Prophet Samuel arrival to carry on the expected according to God’s detailed instructions. When we are in HASTE to become in life, against God’s time scale as King Saul was, we are bound to undermine our DIVINENLY giving instructions to satisfy the FLESHY Demand which works against God’s given instructions. And that’s the danger of many today. Attributing GAIN as GODLINESS. What a wrong concept to measure and legislate spirituality in heavenly mandate of God by GAINS instead of being faithful to fulfill PURPOSE, in OBEYING the God GIVEN cause for our life. Job 36:11; Isaiah 1:19; Hebrews 6:10-12; Proverbs 28:19-22; 1 Timothy 6:3-6.

Therefore, know today that you will and can be able to revenge – take charge on any ENEMY and COHORTS territories, WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS ACTIVATED TO FULFIL PURPOSE. For then you can SET THE VICTORY and TRIUMPH STAND, of OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE cause before you, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

YOU SET THE VICTORY

YOU SET THE VICTORY & TRIUMPH STAND IN OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE: WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS ACTIVATED TO FULFIL PURPOSE!

Everyone wants the best of God in all they do and wants to do in life and godly living; but not everyone wants to be obedient to the end as expected of all who WANTS the best out of God and to be fulfilled in all about life and living godly. This I have known and have come to realise in course of time in dealing with many day by day. Some don’t want to share in principle the responsibility and accountability accorded to the CAUSE of them to be fulfilled in God in Christ Jesus stead, but still want to have it all. My dear, obedience is the  main switchboard. That’s what our Saviour and Lord keyed into in humanity, to become the author of eternal salvation toward all who  intend in God to experience FULFILMENT in faithfulness to DIVINENLY driven PURPOSE. Hebrews 5:1-10; Philippians 2:5-11.

I learnt very early in my Christian life that REBELLION to the CAUSE of God is as equivalent to the sinful consequences apportion to one entangled with WITCHCRAFT and even STUBBORNNESS. This was learnt also, when a simple OBEDIENCE expected of King Saul caused him his throne and kingship. And some believer’s have knowingly or unknowingly forgotten that they are MADE of God in REDEMPTION to become royal priesthood – meaning, that kingship civility and priesthood was bestowed upon us in REDEMPTION. While some claim to acknowledge it, yet in OBEDIENCE to the scriptural demands to enable them TRIUMPH and be VICTORIOUS in life and godliness, are always find wanting, by their impatience as found in King Saul to act without minding that the consequences therein are sometimes fatal and irreversible. 1 Samuel 15:22-24; Revelation 5:9-10; Revelation 1:5-6; 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10.
