SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION – “BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING”: HAVE FAITH IN GOD – FOR IN HIM PEACE REIGN AND RULE!

“BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING; but in every thing by PRAYER and SUPPLICATION with THANKSGIVING let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And THE PEACE OF GOD, which PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING, shall keep your HEARTS and MINDS through Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:6-7.

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING; tell God your needs, and don’t forget TO THANK HIM FOR HIS ANSWERS. 7 If you do this, you will EXPERIENCE GOD’S PEACE, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. HIS PEACE will keep your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:6-7 Living Bible (TLB).

“Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by PRAYER and PETITION with THANKSGIVING, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God. 7 And THE PEACE of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which TRANSCENDS all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours]” Philippians 4:6-7 (Amplified).

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall SAY unto THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not DOUBT in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall HAVE them” Mark 11:22-24.

GIVING LIFE TO YOUR MORTAL BEING: PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT!

“For with STAMMERING LIPS AND ANOTHER TONGUE will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is THE REST wherewith ye may CAUSE THE WEARY TO REST; AND THIS IS THE REFRESHING: yet they would not hear” Isaiah 28:11-12.

Are you weary? Are you distressed? Are you undergoing any infirmities? Are you sick and sickening by any infections diseases? What is that matter that is causing you fear and you are fainting already in your being! There’s an ANSWER – It’s by PRAYING IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, which is Praying in Tongues or SPEAKING FORTH IN UNKNOWN TONGUE unto edification, exhortation and comfort. It means PRAYING from your spirit in the Holy Spirit to rejuvenate and synergised your total well being in LIFE and GRACE in accordance to the WORD.

It’s a high time to give LIFE to your MORTAL BEING. It’s by PRAYING in the SPIRIT that you can effectually and efficiently accomplish this sphere and realm for your total being. Praying in the Spirit gives the synergy to your being.

“A man’s BELLY [SPIRIT-BEING] shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH: and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in the POWER of the TONGUE: and they that LOVE it shall EAT the FRUIT thereof” Proverbs 18:20-21/Emphasis Mine.

Praying in the Spirit helps to REFRESH and to bring every form of WEARINESS, DISTRESS and all ‘ESSESS to a place of REST.

Praying in the Spirit will give strenght and take care of all forms of INFIRMITIES that limits you from a healthy well being. Romans 8:26-27; Proverbs 18:14; Proverbs 17:22; Hebrews 4:14-16.

Don’t you love that? Then give yourself a MUST DO to pray in the Spirit in order to to create this complete, wholesome and total well being for a meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling life.

THE FEAR OF SICKNESSES AND DISEASES MUST NOT HAVE DOMINION OVER YOU: FOR GOD’S BANNER OVER YOU IS HEALTHY LIVING – HEALING AND HEALTH!

“For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment hath taken hold on me. 22 IS THERE NO BALM IN GILEAD; IS THERE NO PHYSICIAN THERE? why then is not the HEALTH of the daughter of my people recovered?” Jeremiah 8:21-22.

FEAR is the ENEMY and COHORTS POLICING OFFICER to get you CAUGHT UP with SICKNESSES And DISEASES and such like pandemic like CORONA-VIRUS and their EFFECTS and the UNKNOWN.

FAITH is the VICTORY over FEAR; and it’s the ANTIDOTE to the spirit of FEAR and it’s POLICING system and EFFECT that’s now in the WORLD; especially on matters of SICKNESSES And DISEASES and such like the CORONA-VIRUS – Suffix to know, that the CORONA-VIRUS is having an effect that’s gradually impacting and has drastically impacted into the ECONOMICS of the WORLD ECONOMY.

BEING CHRIST’S AMBASSADOR IN LOVE

February 15, 2025 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

BEING CHRIST’S AMBASSADOR IN LOVE: YOU NEED TO STAY CONNECTED IN FELLOWSHIP [PRAYERS]!

“So we ARE CHRIST’S AMBASSADORS, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ’s personal REPRESENTATIVES] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God” 2 Corinthians 5:20/Amplified Classic Edition.

I am yet to find any genuine ambassador or even secretary of state on foreign policy, representing his country, that’s not connected and always connected and in communication with the sending country in every decision except such had been declared with a PERSONA NON GRATA by his country. And so ought every Believer of God in Christ Jesus, who by virtue of being a New Creation, are ambassador, representing the heavenly in earthly affairs in love.

“A WICKED MESSENGER [REPRESENTATIVE] falleth into mischief [trouble]: but a FAITHFUL AMBASSADOR is HEALTH” Proverbs 13:17.

And one great hallmark of such BEING CHRIST’S AMBASSADOR IN LOVE, is the act of FELLOWSHIP to enhance that RELATIONSHIP with the sending heavenly. It’s upon this assigned mandate that the Believer in Christ Jesus is CALLED by the heavenly faith into a place of FELLOWSHIP wherein the Believer can fulfil purpose of God in Christ Jesus stead. And this ACT OF FELLOWSHIP is not only toward God in Christ Jesus but to toward fellow Believer’s in the grace of the same-like faith in Christ Jesus, there are Christ’s ambassador. For many have the habit of disregarding the fellowship [communication and connection] with others, and we are admonished and charged not to avoid such act of fellowship. And the act of fellowship in this context is what we mostly generally called – the act of PRAYERS!

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“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 [Ephesians 1:11-12/Amplified].

“NOT FORSAKING OR NEGLECTING to ASSEMBLE [FELLOWSHIP] together [as Believers], as is the HABIT OF SOME PEOPLE, but ADMONISHING (warning, urging, and encouraging) one another, and all the more FAITHFULLY as you see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25/Amplified Classic Edition.

There’s therefore the need to PRAY and keep PRAYING, for it’s a hallmark of the ACT OF FELLOWSHIP for the earthly, to being connected and in communication with the heavenly in order to resolve the earthly affairs: personal, family, community, national and the world; for PRAYER is the path for the Believing one’s as AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, to receive the enabling grace to help fulfil God’s divine purpose and to avoid being declared with a PERSONA NON GRATA.

WHAT THEN IS PRAYER [The Act of Fellowship] – NOT LIMITED:

PRAYER is – the FELLOWSHIP with God to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God. PRAYER is – the COMMUNION with the heavenly Father God in Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit in God’s WORD. PRAYER is – the avenue of resolving life matters with the heavenly to fulfil the assigned divine PURPOSE in humanity.

PRAYER is – engaging and asking of the HEAVENLY permission into your EARTHLY affairs. PRAYER is – the asking for the heavenly intervention in matters of earnest earthly challenges. PRAYER is – the Believer’s life blood to all about doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. PRAYER and the life of PRAYER and PRAYING, is not just an act but Believer’s life breath from the heavenly into the earthy affairs of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

PRAYER – is a vitality and necessity for the Believer’s in Christ to be able to thrive by God for an onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus stead, Amen. And as PRAYER is the Believer’s inescapable obligation to ensure and assure a safe trail with God in humanity, it’s imperative and prerogative of getting readily ready in the context of our daily, weekly, monthly and yearly – plan, purpose and pursuit – in order to take on and take charge of our path of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

And with the daily challenges of our faith in Christ Jesus, it’s of great necessity to PRAY. Such act of PRAYER and PRAYING enable one to ask help of the heavenly TIMELESS timeline into our earthly TIMED timeline intervention. DON’T YOU THINK SO? And if Yes – then give PRAYER a GO today and always – meaning, you can start now to ask for the heavenly permission into your earthly affairs intervention. Start now to let the heavenly interfere into your set out PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT – which will in turn count and account for your good and goodness as we do life and live godly in Christ Jesus [Luke 18:1-8; Matthew 16:19; Matthew 18:18].

PRAYER – is the PATH to have your thoughts and plan ESTABLISHED readily in the spiritual atmosphere with the heavenly realm for an onward, upward trajectory in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. There’s the need to authenticate and enact tangibly into reality your desired yearnings – just as a horse is made readily ready ahead of any battle and challenging time usefulness. May I inform or remind you, it is the spiritual realm of the heavenly, that gives the physical (earthly) world realm the synergy of life – therefore, do yourself a favour to PRAY, so that you FAINT not and live a WORRY free life in the earthly affairs. [Mark 1:35; Luke 6:12-16; Luke 4:1-22; Matthew 6:9-18, 25-34; Hebrews 4:14-16].

PRAYER – is vital because there’s the NEED to HEAR God for yourself and not from someone else’s, especially on that which one intending PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in Christ Jesus stead; personal of prayers in fellowship saves one from waiting for the prophecy of someone to define you on MATTERS that they can’t carry through life with you especially on your behalf. Know of a truth that God hears and answers PRAYERS, and it’s imperative and your prerogative should be to talk and reason WITH God for yourself and not someone else taking the stage for their ego, knowing that God will answer you irrespective and accordingly. [Psalms 65:2; Psalms 5:1-3; Jeremiah 33:3].

Today, and now, it beholds me to plead with you to please GIVE GOD A CALL TODAY – HE WILL ANSWER WHEN IT RINGS ON HIS THRONE. He wants to hear from you personally irrespective without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation.

“And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which ARE THE PRAYERS OF SAINTS” Revelation 5:8.

“And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much INCENSE, that he should offer it with THE PRAYERS OF ALL SAINTS upon the golden altar which was before the throne. 4 And the SMOKE OF THE INCENSE, which came with the PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS, ASCENDED UP BEFORE GOD out of the angel’s hand” Revelation 8:3-4.

Be BLESSED in your EARTHLY CAUSE to doing LIFE and living GODLY in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (GIVE UP, GO WEARY, LOOSE HEART)” Luke 18:1 (Emphasis Mine).

“Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The HEARTFELT AND PERSISTENT PRAYER of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]” James 5:16 (Amplified).

“PRAYING ALWAYS WITH ALL PRAYER and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints” Ephesians 6:18.

“O You who HEAR prayer, To You all mankind comes” Psalms 65:2 (Amplified).

“CALL to Me and I will ANSWER you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things, [things which have been confined and hidden], which you do not know and understand and cannot distinguish” Jeremiah 33:3 (Amplified).

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a MOUNTAIN TO PRAY. 29 And AS HE PRAYED, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering” Luke 9:28-29.

“Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left [the house], and went out to a secluded place, and was PRAYING there” Mark 1:35 (Amplified).

THERE’S MORE TO PRAYER AND TO – PRAYING AND FASTING

December 7, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THERE’S MORE TO PRAYER AND TO – PRAYING AND FASTING: PRAYER IS RELATIONSHIP ENHANCED BY FELLOWSHIP!

“Thou wilt shew me THE PATH OF LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS OF JOY; at thy RIGHT HAND there are PLEASURES FOR EVERMORE” Psalms 16:11 [Ephesians 1:3, 20; Ephesians 2:6].

Sometimes People talk and almost boast on how much they do fast or have fasted and prayed and praying as to qualify or earn them somehow a spiritual status of greatness; more especially as we are about turning into a new year, some will set days or weeks or months as if they are in a comparable state to prove something. Forgetting that they who go comparing themselves for whatever reason in this Kingdom causes are not Scripturally wise – meaning are foolish, ignorant and immature for such act of comparison intent as written:

“For we DARE not make ourselves of the NUMBER, or COMPARE ourselves with some that COMMEND themselves: but they MEASURING themselves by themselves, and COMPARING themselves among themselves, ARE NOT WISE” 2 Corinthians 10:12.

Prayer or praying and fasting is a vitality and necessity for every Christian faith believer in Christ Jesus of which I acclaimed to belong. I love to vitalise my faith through all that, but as important as any or both vitalities and necessities are, they are void if the objective is not primarily about FELLOWSHIP with God, in order to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God as a result of being born of God and for the good and goodness of God’s cause on earth for mankind in Christ Jesus stead.

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

“And in the morning, RISING UP A GREAT WHILE BEFORE DAY, he went out, and departed into a SOLITARY PLACE, and there PRAYED” Mark 1:35.

And to engage in an effective PRAYERS and probably with FASTING in FELLOWSHIP to enhance RELATIONSHIP with God for any cause, there’s the need to live a life of FORGIVENESS and FORGETFULNESS to necessitate them. Many may say they can or may FORGIVE but can’t possibly FORGET. Can you imagine God, ONLY FORGIVING you of your shortfalls and NOT FORGETTING about it? and you want to claim to live or be living in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead without such knowing and understanding as God’s offspring?

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, WHEN YE PRAY, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye SHALL HAVE them. 25 And WHEN YE STAND PRAYING, FORGIVE, if ye have OUGHT AGAINST ANY: that your Father also which is in heaven may FORGIVE you your TRESPASSES. 26 But if ye DO NOT FORGIVE, neither will your Father which is in heaven FORGIVE YOUR TRESPASSES” Mark 11:24-26.

And one needs to know that as God is in Christ Jesus, so ARE we in this world, in order to carry on His GOSPEL mandate without an “IF and BUT” baggages – 1 John 4:17-18 [John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5]. This then indicates that there’s therefore something more of a FOUNDATION and FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES we need to uphold in grace by faith, in order to enhance PRAYERS or PRAYING and FASTING. Thus, there is more to PRAYERS or PRAYING and FASTING toward our – RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP – which are in twine with FORGIVENESS and FORGETFULNESS. Otherwise, prayer will be UNANSWERED and one is only a noise maker of self gratification and in deceptions, no matter how much you acclaimed to prayers or prayer and fasting.

For PRAYER or PRAYING AND FASTING to be effectual – productive and results oriented, it must have the FOUNDATION and FUNDAMENTAL principles called a RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus stead and enhanced through FELLOWSHIP accordingly. That’s the basic principle that any one who intends to reach out to God must endeavour to establish for themselves otherwise middle men cohorts in the name of God with titles and entitlements, will take advantage of such vulnerability and ignorance, and become a god and wants to do god to such an individual which is unscriptural and unfounded in the Christian FAITH foundation and fundamental, which justification and access by faith is only of – REPENTANCE toward God and FAITH toward Christ Jesus. Amen. [Acts 20:20-21].

“And how I KEPT BACK NOTHING that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have SHEWED you, and have TAUGHT you publicly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE toward God, and FAITH toward our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and REJOICE in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

And to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus Christ, the act of communion – FELLOWSHIP, is a necessity and vitality for one to fulfill PURPOSE with God. [1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10]. The act of FELLOWSHIP is to enhance RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus stead, and this act to enhance is only possible with a spirited heart of forgiving (FORGIVENESS) and forgetting (FORGETFULNESS) on the human part toward God in Christ Jesus, toward self and toward others. You can’t get yourself entangle with unforgiveness and unforgettable attitude to God, to self and to others and wants to enjoy God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. For it’s upon this principle aforementioned, that PRAYERS – PRAYING AND FASTING – act can be of EFFECTUAL – productive and result oriented with the peace, assurance that transcends and surpasses human comprehension and understanding. [Mark 11:20-26; Matthew 5:38-48; James 5:13-18, Philippians 4:6-7. Ephesians 3:14-20].

I pray that you receive the grace for an effectual and efficient FELLOWSHIP and RELATIONSHIP with God in Christ Jesus stead, that will enhanced your PRAYER life through the Spirit of forgiveness and forgetfulness with – God, Self and others – in Jesus’ precious name. Amen.

“Dearly beloved, AVENGE NOT YOURSELVES, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if THINE ENEMY HUNGER, FEED HIM; if he THIRST, GIVE HIM DRINK: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be NOT OVERCOME OF EVIL, but OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD” Romans 12:19-21.

“If THINE ENEMY BE HUNGRY, give him BREAD TO EAT; and if he be THIRSTY, give him WATER TO DRINK: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22.

“When a man’s WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES TO BE AT PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

YOUR PRAYERS GO BEFORE GOD AS AN INCENSE [PERFUME, FRAGRANCE, AROMA]

October 13, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

YOUR PRAYERS GO BEFORE GOD AS AN INCENSE [PERFUME, FRAGRANCE, AROMA]: MAKING THE VICTORY SONGS – HALLELUJAH! HALLELUIA!! ALLELUIA!!!

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (GIVE UP, BE WEARY, PANIC, BE ANXIOUS)” Luke 18:1/Emphasis Mine.

“. . . 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a GOLDEN CENSER; and there was given unto him much INCENSE (PERFUME, FRAGRANCE, AROMA), that he should OFFER IT WITH THE PRAYERS OF ALL SAINTS upon the GOLDEN ALTAR which was before THE THRONE. 4 And the SMOKE OF THE INCENSE, WHICH CAME WITH THE PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS, ASCENDED UP BEFORE GOD OUT OF THE ANGEL’S HAND . . .” Revelation 8/Emphasis Mine.

PRAYER – is the Believer’s in Christ Jesus avenue of MINISTERING WORTHILY to the Lord in WORSHIP and SERVING Him ACCEPTABLY while SEEKING His HEAVENLY endorsement and interference for the good, in our EARTHLY affairs; and it is the Believing one’s inescapable and supreme PURPOSE task, toward PERSONAL, NATIONAL and GLOBAL solutions to human needs, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast CREATED all things, and for thy PLEASURE they ARE and WERE created” Revelation 4:11.

And there’s nothing as lovely, awesome and amazing in knowing and understanding that your PRAYERS go before God’s throne of GRACE as an INCENSE – a PERFUME, FRAGRANCE and AROMA of GRACIOUSNESS and GRACEFULNESS; and that He BREATHS in your acts of MINISTERING to Him in your WORSHIP and SERVICES in PRAYERS; and the resultant effects are VOICES, and THUNDERINGS, and LIGHTNING’S, and an EARTHQUAKE. These METAPHORS indicates how powerful, effectual and awesome results that accompany your PRAYERS to the HEAVENLY for your EARTHLY affairs to be resolved effortless and without sweat.

Therefore – NEVER get tired, burnt out, faint, give up and be wearisome in your PRAYERS. For PRAYER is FELLOWSHIP with God to enhance our RELATIONSHIP with Him. THINK about that every time you take any posture of PRAYERS to express in word or and in hearts.

Let the Lord’s name be magnify in your PRAYERS. The Lord is good and His mercies endures for ever more. May His grace and BLESSEDNESS abound the more upon you as you make PRAYERS an inescapable and supreme task to meet the PERSONAL, NATIONAL and GLOBAL needs of humanity.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2 As they MINISTERED to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost SAID, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. 3 And when they had FASTED and PRAYED, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away” Acts 13:1-3.

“Let my PRAYER be set forth before thee as INCENSE; and the LIFTING UP OF MY HANDS as the EVENING SACRIFICE” Psalms 141:2.

“. . . 2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much INCENSE (PERFUME, FRAGRANCE, AROMA), that he should OFFER IT WITH THE PRAYERS OF ALL SAINTS upon the GOLDEN ALTAR which was before THE THRONE. 4 And the SMOKE OF THE INCENSE, WHICH CAME WITH THE PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS, ASCENDED UP BEFORE GOD OUT OF THE ANGEL’S HAND. 5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. 6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. . .” Revelation 8 (Emphasis Mine).

“And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 14 Are they not all MINISTERING spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be HEIRS of salvation?” Hebrews 1:7, 14.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (GIVE UP, WEARY)” Luke 18:1 (Emphasis Mine).

“IS ANY AMONG YOU AFFLICTED? LET HIM PRAY. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; AND LET THEM PRAY OVER HIM, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 AND THE PRAYER OF FAITH shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. THE EFFECTUAL FERVENT PRAYER OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN AVAILETH MUCH. 17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, AND HE PRAYED EARNESTLY that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. 18 AND HE PRAYED AGAIN, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit” James 5:13-18.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

May 3, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: GIVES ETERNAL LIFE ACCESS – IN OUR REDEMPTION!

The most profound High Priest PRAYERS for the CHURCH, the BODY OF CHRIST of which you are and can be a partaker in the Scriptures, was OFFERED by our Lord Jesus Christ while at the verged of the closure of His earthly Ministry for the REDEMPTION of mankind.

In the Holy Writ Book of John Chapter 17 is written of the most comprehensive INTERCESSORY PRAYERS ever made for the CAUSE of the good of His Church. Jesus in one of the verses OFFERED PRAYERS to the FATHER God that we might come to a place in grace of THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY ONE so that we can ACTUALISE and LIVE in the REALM of ETERNAL LIFE. A place wherein we can comprehensively grab the fullness of His DONE DEED for us in Christ.

Christ Jesus praying that – We might KNOW Father God and Himself who was SENT by the Father, indicates there is graciousness and gracefulness to attain in such REALM of PRAYERS – John 17:3. That is the REALM that can ENSURE that we can be able to articulate and authenticate His WILL in Heaven into our Earthly affairs. Amen.

ETERNAL LIFE is the ETERNITY realm of God in doing life. And for us to actualise the fullness of our REDEMPTION in Him, we need to synchronize our spirit BEING to that ETERNAL LIFE REALM of God. For indeed He has planted ETERNITY in us – Ecclesiastes 3:11. This is made possible by having the knowing and understanding of THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY in us.

May I make bold to say that it is in keeping your eternal spirit BEING alive that one can comprehend in essence the WORKS of God in man. And we are expected to WALK in this ETERNITY REALM if indeed we LIVE in this REALM – Galatians 5:25. Do you? If not, it’s time to keep to the expected in order to make your prayers EASIER. For it’s a REALM beyond the FIVE SENSES or rather a REALM wherein the FIVE Senses has been SENSITIZED by the WORD KNOWING of God – Hebrews 5:14.

I pray that you will see the need to articulate and synchronize your spirit BEING to this ETERNAL LIFE in order to give the HEAVENLY ACCESS to your EARTHLY affairs.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH INTO THIS GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

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

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of WISDOM: and the KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY IS UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 9:10.

“He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man CANNOT find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified).

” If we [claim to] LIVE by the [Holy] Spirit, we must also WALK by the Spirit [with personal integrity, godly character, and moral courage—our conduct empowered by the Holy Spirit]” Galatians 5:25 (Amplified).
