GOOD SUCCESS: IT’S ABOUT BEING FULFILLED IN CHRIST!

My father and mentor in the Lord of blessed memory once said:

“SUCCESS WITHOUT A SUCCESSOR IS FAILURE IN DISGUISE”

Taking a stand on wisdom nugget stand above, it thus means, it’s not enough to wake up, count your chickens and say I’m a SUCCESS – that is to say, there is NO TRUE SUCCESS when you have not REPRODUCE yourself in the life of someone or others who goes to make others a SUCCESS in succession.

In the light of the Scriptures, GOOD SUCCESS begins with the Word in your mouth and the Word content in your spirit-hearts of meditation. THINK ABOUT IT.

I know SUCCESS in terms is RELATIVE. But GOOD SUCCESS is about BEING FULFILLED in LIFE and GODLY LIVING, that is to say – laying hold to eternal reward from God, having reproduce your you in life, in the cause of God’s mandate and assignment in your life.

You need to THINK about FULFILMENT while you go concluding I AM A SUCCESS. Just a SUCCESS is not the FINAL, until you KEEP to the FAITH to the end in FULFILMENT of God’s PURPOSE.

Every grace, wisdom and speed in Christ Jesus. Amen.

“For I am now READY to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 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 4:6-8.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy MOUTH; but thou shalt MEDITATE therein day and night, that thou mayest OBSERVE to do according to all that is written THEREIN: for then thou shalt make thy WAY PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS. 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” (Joshua 1:8-9).

“And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it.” (Colossians 4:17).

GREETINGS:
Shalom & Redemption Life Greetings! Welcome to the new and existing recipients of the Achievers’ FAITH Digest, to the Monthly TEACHING Newsletter publication of Decade 2020s and Year 2020. More so, WELCOME to this gracious and graceful eleventh (CARDINAL NUMBER) hour Month of standing up in faith against the PANDEMIC obstacles in the path of progress in this NOVEMBER 2020!

I gracefully and graciously welcome you into this month of expressing grace in overturning setbacks and long standing oppositions and obstacles in ones path of progress in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; and I pray that His grace, peace, love and mercy might take hold of you with all things under your feet and control according to the Holy covenanted Scriptures as written and spoken concerning you in Christ Jesus precious name, Amen!

This NOVEMBER, is the eleventh (cardinal number) month of the leap year 2020 and of the Decade 2020s is themed as: GOD IS FAITHFUL! –“Thriving And Achieving Life Plan, Purpose And pursuit meaningfully and in fulfilment, through Faithfulness (being faithful) as God Is, In Christ Jesus Stead”

GOD IS FAITHFUL – There’s the need as His children to reciprocate His nature in us as endorsed in 2 Peter 1:1-4, in being the object of His Faithfulness as we are of His Love as it’s written “Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 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”

AFD November 2020 Theme – GOD IS FAITHFUL! – and it is about
“Thriving And Achieving Life Plan, Purpose And pursuit meaningfully and in fulfilment, through Faithfulness (being faithful) as God Is, In Christ Jesus Stead”. Amen.

1 Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord”

Hebrews 10:23 “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for He is faithful that promised”

Luke 18:1-8 “. . . And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith (Greek “pistis” – means faithfulness) on the earth?” (Emphasis Mine)

Luke 16:1-13 “. . .He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own? No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon”.

Today we live in an age where faithfulness to ourselves and to others is in great demand for creating an atmosphere that we can enjoy. Unfortunately we are so eager to demand faithfulness from others while we may not be faithful ourselves even in the least of things.

Hence I am grateful to the Holy Spirit that this month He has constrained me to challenge us on the need of achieving life goals through faithfulness. Hence the reason to set tasks and targets for oneself in making it be.

We need to know that our God is a faithful God. This is just one basic nature of God – FAITHFULNESS. We being His children cannot afford to live in any other way and expect to achieve greatness in life.

THE PURSUIT FOR FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL!

Great admirable marriages, homes and businesses are not achieved merely from structural design but from faithful human hearts. The results of being faithful are the prosperity and good success that we all desire. When we make faithfulness an avenue of achieving life’s goals, we promote honesty, decency and healthy lifestyles.

In the scripture quoted at the beginning, Luke 18:7-8, Jesus asked a question about FAITHFULNESS. The word FAITH is translated ‘pistis’ in Greek, which denotes faithfulness in English. Jesus wondered how many would be faithful – to trust God and wait upon His Word – without seeking alternative solutions to life’s challenges; more so, to await faithfully until He returns in the midst of good and challenging times. The 2nd main text, Luke 16:1-13, shows the reason that many of us cannot achieve our goals. It is because we are not faithful in matters entrusted into our hands by others. It is time now for us to pursue and make FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL our watchword and action in life and godly living.

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL: GOD CALLED US INTO HIS FELLOWSHIP!

We were created for FELLOWSHIP. We lost it in Adam at Eden; but thanks to God that in Christ Jesus by our REDEMPTION in Him, we’ve been CALLED, having been FOREKNOWN, PREDESTINATED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED to share in this FELLOWSHIP again; and not just for now only but for all eternity as we stand in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Genesis 3:8-11 (1-24); 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30; 1 John 1:1-10.

FELLOWSHIP enhance RELATIONSHIP. Show me an outstanding and stable relationship, I will show you the fellowship that has been built over time behind the scene to make it likeable, loveable and liveable.

COMMUNION – the Common Union is about being together in common grace of life – 1 Peter 3:7-12 (1-12); and that is what makes the Relationship of grace, a UNIFIED bond of common knowledge and understanding on same path of life in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS. You can develop a sense of fellowship (communion) today to enhance your relationship with God and mankind in all good and pure consciousness. It’s on such atmosphere you can experience and know with full joy that – GOD IS FAITHFUL. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.

“Let us HOLD FAST the profession of our faith without wavering; for HE IS FAITHFUL that promised” Hebrews 10:23.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence TOWARD God, and TOWARD men” Acts 24:16.

“Holding the MYSTERY OF THE FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

“. . . 3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have FELLOWSHIP with us: and truly our FELLOWSHIP is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And these things write we unto you, THAT YOUR JOY MAY BE FULL. 5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have FELLOWSHIP with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have FELLOWSHIP one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin . . .” 1 John 1:1-10

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL: THE NATURE OF GOD!

One thing is certain in life and that is – LIKE BEGAT LIKE. A tree don’t give birth to an animal or mammal. A Lion don’t give birth to a Leopard nor a Goat give birth to a Sheep even in their proximity of likeness or characteristics.

One need to know full well that we are the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture according to the Scriptures – (Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 100:3; 1 John 4:17-18); (John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5). It then means that we can live a FAITHFUL life and achieve good successes with God when we dare. The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was FAITHFUL and prospered when he dare. The same grace is available to us today despite our challenges to be FAITHFUL and to prosper in Christ Jesus stead. 2 Peter 1:2-4; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2; 24:1)

Our God is FAITHFUL God, that is His NATURE. He’s God of FAITHFULNESS – He lives within Himself – His NATURE. And as such, in achieving life’s goals with God in Christ Jesus stead, it would be great for you to look at the nature of God regarding FAITHFULNESS as found of Him in the Holy writ:

1. God is FAITHFUL to Himself. 2 Timothy 2:13.

2. God is FAITHFUL to His Word and promises. Hebrews 10:23.

3. God is FAITHFUL to His relationship. 1 Corinthians 1:9; Hebrews 8:28-30.

4. God is FAITHFUL to forgive. 1 John 1:9 (5-10).

5. God is FAITHFUL in agreement. Deuteronomy 7:9.

6. God is FAITHFUL to establish and deliver. 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

7. God is FAITHFUL to accomplish His part in the assignment that He gives to us. 1 Thessalonians 5:24.

8. God is the/a FAITHFUL creator. 1 Peter 4:19.

9. . . . God is FAITHFUL and many more – and of His FAITHFULNESS as in the Holy Writ . . . Kindly read the HOLY BIBLE to know the more. John 5:39; Matthew 22:29; Acts 17:10-13.

Considering the above mentioned nature of God in being FAITHFUL, you can bank on His FAITHFULNESS in His grace and BLESSEDNESS; this will give you the enabling leverage to abound the more, in sharing and partaking of His promises in the REDEMPTION DEED, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy FAITHFULNESS to all generations. 2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy FAITHFULNESS shalt thou establish in the very heavens. 3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant, 4 thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah. 5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O Lord: thy FAITHFULNESS also in the congregation of the saints . . .” Psalms 89:1-52.

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL AS FAITHFUL ABRAHAM!

As I read, ponder and make up this write up, I recall countless times I have sang and still sing the song: “Abraham Blessing Are Mine”. This I have done for over 45yrs and still counting. And then while working on the cause and course of this month theme, the Lord reminds me again of the Scripture of Galatians 3:9 in a more ASSURED insight and foresight, as written:

“So then THEY which be of FAITH are BLESSED with FAITHFUL ABRAHAM” Galatians 3:9.

How gracious and graceful for one to easily lay claim to be Abraham seed and wants Abraham Blessings; more so, to be God’s friend as Abraham, as we do sing “I Am A Friend Of God”, even as the Scriptures indicate in James 2:23. Yeah, the Scriptures did say in Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29, that as many of us who are of FAITH in Christ Jesus are of Abraham and can share in the Abrahamic BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. This become possible because Abraham was ascribed as FAITHFUL ABRAHAM; this is due to his obedience in believing and being assured of God’s FAITHFULNESS in His promise, to let go of himself and let God be in all about him doing life and living godly.

Abraham was FAITHFUL toward God from the moment the Gospel as said in Galatians 3:8 was PREACHED to him; and I repeat, that the Gospel of God in FAITH was PREACHED to him, wherein he BELIEVED and acted upon accordingly and unreservedly. He believed God, and in obedience through FAITH, he journeyed with God in FAITHFULNESS until death as in his memoir in the Holy writ of Genesis 12-25. And all who came afterwards in FAITH have shared in his BLESSEDNESS with God, in that he was FAITHFUL as ascribed as – FAITHFUL ABRAHAM.

Let us see some FAITHFUL characteristics of FAITHFUL ABRAHAM that we can learn of him and can use as a measure to ascertain in SHARING in his GOSPEL enabling for us today:

1. He was FAITHFUL to OBEY when he received the call of God without conferring with flesh and blood. He left all, his people inclusive, to cleave to God in faith. How I wish we can learn of him, on how to LEAVE and CLEAVE to a CAUSE – PURPOSE. Genesis 12; Galatians 1:12-17; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5 (Make 10:7).

2. He was FAITHFUL to depend on God’s provisions when tried and tested by his nephew – Lot – who was in his greediness on business deals and acquisitions with him. He turned his face to God, instead of having a fight on Earthly possessions that takes people lives instead of offering life. Genesis 13; Luke 12:15; Mark 10:28-3; Philippians 4:13, 19; 2 Corinthians 9:8; 2 Corinthians 3:4-6.

3. He was FAITHFUL to pay up in FAITH at no pressure or dispute, the TITHE of his earnings – Genesis 14; Hebrews 7:1-9; Hebrews 3:1-2; Matthew 23:23; Matthew 22:15-22; 2 Corinthians 8-9; Luke 6:38; Luke 8:1-3; Acts 20:32-35; (Proverbs 3:9-10; Malachi 3:10-12; Deuteronomy 26:1-19; Leviticus 27:30-33).

4. He was FAITHFUL toward God in Covenant in FAITH, being assured that God will do the needful – Genesis 15-17; Philippians 1:6; 1 John 5:14-15; Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

5. He was FAITHFUL to receive and entertained Angelic visitors unaware and at no question or cost. Genesis 18; Hebrews 13:1-3; Romans 12:9-21;

6. He was FAITHFUL to intercede in prayers for His family and Nation in crises and awaiting God’s judgement, peradventure God might show mercy – Genesis 18/19; Isaiah 59:16; Ezekiel 22:30; Romans 8:26:26-27; Isaiah 53:12; Romans 8:34; Hebrews 7:25.

7. He was such FAITHFUL to let GO of his wife when challenge, in order to fulfil PURPOSE in God; and God foreseeing his sincerity save him and wife from such challenging test of his marital relationship. Genesis 20; Mark 10:28-31; Colossians 4:17; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30.

8. He was FAITHFUL in the midst of the CONFUSION he find himself by the errors and failures he made in course of time in his decision. And God was there to turn his MESS into a MESSAGE because he was troubled and repentant. Genesis 21; 2 Thessalonians 3:3; Galatians 1:3-5; 1 Thessalonians 5:24; 1 John 1:9-10.

9. He was FAITHFUL to let Go of his precious and most treasured gift – his son Isaac to God, at God’s request and demand, without questioning and arguing with God of His intent. – Genesis 22; Hebrews 11:17-19.

10. He was FAITHFUL even at his lost of his dear wife and in bereavement. And turn his lost for legacy, in that by her burying place, he then set up a foundation stone (the land of Canaan) that earmarked that which was to be FULFILL for posterity in God’s Prophecy in MOSES and the Israelites in years to come. Genesis 23; (Galatians 3:17-18; Genesis 15:12-14); 2 Corinthians 1:3-11; John 11:1-45; Romans 12:15; James 5:13.

11. He was FAITHFUL in that he was able to create the needed atmosphere that his son Isaac could get married faithfully. Genesis 24; 1 Timothy 4:12; Titus 2:1-8; Ephesians 6:1-4; Ephesians 5:21-33; 1 Peter 3:1-12.

12. He was FAITHFUL to leave an inheritance for his Children as he died in FAITH, fulfilling PURPOSE in FAITHFULNESS. Genesis 25; Proverbs 13:22.

Abraham have FAITH in God’s FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL; that’s why he was prepared from the moment of receiving the GOSPEL of FAITH, to LET GO of himself of anything, counting and accounting that God will take CARE of him no matter what may happen; thus indicating that whatsoever he let go at God’s request, God knows best as He’s a FAITHFUL God to make it up for him in a far better placement than the one he could have held unto and held back with; and in selfishness and in not Believing and Trusting that GOD IS FAITHFUL to keep to His PROMISE. Today, we as Abraham seed, who are partakers of his enabling in Christ Jesus, how much can it be said, that we are as him, in being called FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. Let us not be the Believers in Christ Jesus stead, who wants the BLESSEDNESS of Abraham but are not PREPARED of the PROCESS in it; especially when that is the part that can fortified and make us grounded and rooted in FAITH and in the FAITH, in Christ Jesus stead, as we share in his blessing.

ABRAHAM was called a friend of God – James 2:23, because of the attribute of being FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. May we be as he’s toward God in Christ Jesus stead I pray for now and always. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Hearken to me, ye that FOLLOW AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS, ye that seek the Lord: LOOK UNTO THE ROCK whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 2 Look unto ABRAHAM YOUR FATHER, and unto SARAH THAT BARE YOU: for I CALLED him alone, and BLESSED him, and INCREASED him. 3 For the Lord shall COMFORT Zion: he will COMFORT all her waste places; and he will make her WILDERNESS like Eden, and her DESERT like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody” Isaiah 51:1-3.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, IN THEE SHALL ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“By FAITH Abraham, when he was CALLED to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, OBEYED; and he went out, NOT KNOWING whither he went. 9 By FAITH he sojourned in THE LAND OF PROMISE, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10 for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. 11 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 sea shore innumerable . . . 17 By FAITH Abraham, when he was tried, OFFERED up Isaac: and he that had RECEIVED the promises OFFERED up his only begotten son, 18 of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19 ACCOUNTING that God was ABLE to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he RECEIVED him in a FIGURE” Hebrews 11:8-19.

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how FAITH wrought with his works, and by works was FAITH made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the FRIEND of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only” James 2:20-24.”As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before him whom he BELIEVED, even God, who QUICKENETH the dead, and CALLETH those things which be not as though they were. 18 Who against HOPE believed in HOPE, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness . . .” Romans 4:17-25.

Further Scriptural Reading: Romans 4:18-25; Hebrews 11:8-19; Genesis 12-25.

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL: TILL YOUR LAND – Explore, Create, Initiate & Innovate – For Your Today & Tomorrow Definition!

It’s a high time to stop blaming others for nearly everything about you. It’s time to awake, rise up, get a life to live and TILL YOUR LAND, for your happiness and satisfaction.

Your today and tomorrow is not merely DEFINE by Miracle and Mystery that some crave after rather than knowing the God of Miracle and Mystery. Otherwise you will end up as the children of Israelites, whose only DEFINITION was SOLELY in the MIRACULOUS ACTS of God; while unlike Moses, who knew the FAITHFUL God of Miracle and His WAY – the PATH – that makes one DEFINITION. Psalms 103:7; Exodus 33:12-19; Psalms 16:11.

Your DEFINITION for today and tomorrow is within the CHOICE you make daily in your PATH of doing life and living godly. That’s to say, your HARVEST or DEFINITION are in the CHOICES you make today and will be making daily in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS. Genesis 8:22; Deuteronomy 30:19-20; Proverbs 22:29; Galatians 6:7-8; Luke 16:10-13. It thus means that your ability to EXPLORE, CREATE, INITIATE and INNOVATE with the capacity of THE MEASURE of the GRACE and FAITH available to you in God’s BLESSEDNESS ensures and defines you in Christ Jesus stead. Deuteronomy 8:18; Ephesians 4:7; Romans 12:3.

It thus mean also that one’s DEFINITION is to stop being SLOTHFUL and LAZING around with reliance on a bottle of Anointing OIL, Holy WATER, special PROPHET handkerchief, miracle WRISTBAND, car or door STICKER and such like; instead it’s of DILIGENCE in a set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT that leads to creativity, innovating, initiating and exploring to succeed with God. For it’s within you to define the atmosphere and happiness your desire to have in God and with God, in His endowed enabling grace, wisdom and speed in His BLESSEDNESS.

May I admonished you to know that your sustainable definition for today and tomorrow is not something you just enter or jump into overnight. It’s born out of a deliberate CHOICE to become. Meaning it’s something you create, Initiate through exploring and innovating in the course of time and within the given enabling grace of God, in the measure of applicable FAITH in God, in Christ Jesus stead. Otherwise, one will keep shouting I RECEIVE with all the noise and bubbles around for instant miracle at no foundation to SUSTAIN and sense of direction with the needed PURPOSE to keep the PLAN and PURSUIT steadily steady.

Just know that you are born of God and you can have your Definition in Him, for He’s FAITHFUL to His promises. For man (you), is the reason the earth was created. Meaning, the earth is made for man and not the other way round. Therefore, TILL (CREATE, INNOVATE, INITIATE, EXPLORE) your LAND and you will be satisfied with the GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE of God’s BLESSEDNESS in His FAITHFULNESS in Christ Jesus. Psalms 115:16; Psalms 8:4-6; Isaiah 45:11-12.

I pray that you find meaningful FULFILMENT in God’s FAITHFULNESS in Christ Jesus stead as you TILL – create, innovate, initiate and explore – your land. Amen.

“But thou shalt REMEMBER the Lord thy God: for it is he that GIVETH thee POWER (ENABLING, RIGHT) to GET (CREATE, INITIATE, INNOVATE, EXPLORE) wealth, that he may ESTABLISH his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18.

“But the Lord is FAITHFUL, who shall STABLISH you, and KEEP you from EVIL” 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

“FAITHFUL is he that CALLETH you, who also will DO it” 1 Thessalonians 5:24.

“He that TILLETH his LAND shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN persons shall have POVERTY enough” Proverbs 28:19.

“While the earth remaineth, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease” Genesis 8:22.

“The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the EARTH hath he GIVEN to the children of men” Psalms 115:16.u

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL IS PRACTICABLE AND APPLICABLE!

God is not just FAITHFUL in His NATURE, but requires every of His children that will do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead, to be FAITHFUL in everyway in the cause of time. If this is not possible in His grace, He will not require it of us in His enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

May I also say that in life, some are set to LEAD in a CAUSE while some are set to ASSIST – that is, to HELP the person to LEAD in order to THRIVE and ACHIEVE the common and mutual goal. Neither the HELPER or the LEADER in such privileged and opportune CAUSE are less a being at ALL to each other in all way of doing life and living godly – it’s all matter of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY in PRINCIPLE. Be it in the CAUSES of any of THESE: ** Family Life ** Marriage ** Business ** Enterprise ** Government ** Gospel Ministry ** Community or Private Organisation ** . . . and many such like . . .

And in each applicable and application of life and godly matters, God expect each one as in the wisdom of King David as in the Holy writ of 1 Samuel 30:24, to have a fair share ALIKE in the good and outcome of any or such endeavours in pursuit.

Unfortunately, many today are oppressed, denied and marginalised of their fair rights and privileges in cause of time of their basic entitlement. And in the other hands, some are fighting and heating up smoke to gain rights of fair share at no cost, contribution or helping hand at all. These INDIFFERENCE on both sides or ends OUGHT not to be in any place where FAITHFULNESS is a requirement to manage the RESOURCES that pertains to all. For the EARTH is the LORD’S, the FULNESS thereof, the world and all who DWELL therein. And Believer’s in Christ Jesus are all CALLED to share in the INHERITANCE of His BLESSEDNESS.

Therefore, knowing that the EARTH is the lord’s and all the resources in used, and FAITHFULNESS is required to be a STEWARD of His grace and BLESSEDNESS, it’s NEEDFUL for me to show some APPLICABLE areas in this light, however not limited on the need to be FAITHFUL as in THESE:

1. Be A FAITHFUL Employee – Whatever position you hold, God requires you to be FAITHFUL. Matthew 24:45-51; Ephesians 6:5-8; 1 Peter 2:18-20; Colossians 3:22-25.

2. Be A FAITHFUL Employer – Look WELL after your staff in whatever the business/Enterprise. Ephesians 6:6-9; Colossians 4:1; Proverbs 11:24-26; Deuteronomy 10:17-18; Acts 10:34-35; Romans 2:11.

3. Be FAITHFUL In Any Relationships -This is a vital ingredient in enhancing a healthy society. Luke 16:1-13; 1 Peter 3:1-12; Ephesians 4:1-4; 1 Corinthians 12:12-26.

4. Being FAITHFUL In The Kingdom Business – As a Gospel Minister, Pastor, Ministry Worker in Leadership or not etc, you cannot afford to attend to ministry work in the way that pleases you and at the same time want God’s backing. No adulterations of any sort will make God be a part of it. Faithfulness to God’s Word and commands is not negotiable and it’s a basic prerequisite to achieving desired Kingdom causes with God in Christ Jesus stead. Luke 1:49; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2; 2 Timothy 2:1-2; Proverbs 27:23; John 21:15-17 (Numbers 12:7; Hebrews 3:2, 5).

5. Being FAITHFUL In Marital Relationship – In Marriage one cannot afford to be UNFAITHFUL and achieve with God. 1 Timothy 3:11; Proverbs 31:10; Proverbs 20:6; Ephesians 5:21-33; 1 Peter 3:1-12; 1 Corinthians 7:1-7; Hebrews 13:1-6.

6. Being FAITHFUL In Parenting – Faithfulness is also vital requirements of God in a parent/child relationship. Ephesians 6:1-4; Colossians 3:20-21; Proverbs 22:6.

7. Being FAITHFUL in Friendship – Faithfulness in friendships is NEEDFUL in our daily life support. Not necessarily when in trouble times only, but in good times to ascertain STRENGHT in our relationship in course of time. Proverbs 27:6, 10; Proverbs 17:17; Proverbs 18:24.

May I say again that there are many other applicable ways in the light of the Holy Scriptures wherein FAITHFULNESS and being FAITHFUL is required of you – do search the Scriptures.

I plead to you in Jesus Christ stead to do life and live godly by being FAITHFUL; for our stewardship as expected to be trustworthy custodian of God’s resources on EARTH in the utilisation, will be question and challenge one day, based on FAITHFULNESS.

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL IS REQUIRED FOR ONE TO ABOUND IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS!

I believe in PRAYERS; and so in FASTING as the Scriptures expects of the New Creation Believer’s in Christ as in WHEN, in the light of the Scriptures Matthew 6:5, 7, 16 (5-18). Yet in all glorification of PRAYERS and FASTINGS as many have attributes as hallmarks for life, God expectations from His children is the acts of FAITHFULNESS – being FAITHFUL in His house – IN ALL WAY. Meaning, in all our dedication and commitment to the course and cause of doing life and living godly, in order to partake in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead, what God truly demands from us in honesty, is a genuine life of being FAITHFUL.

And we as representative, custodian and steward of His CAUSE on earth, the true hallmark of our stewardship in His cause through us is – FAITHFULNESS. Meaning, it’s for us to live FAITHFUL in all phases that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead.

FAITHFULNESS – being FAITHFUL, in the utilisation of all gifts and talents along with the commensurate resources that is endowed upon you in relation to God and humanity is the sum of God from you. So that you can say, that in all CONSCIENCE of faith in FAITHFULNESS, you are free and void of OFFENCE TOWARD God and mankind. CAN YOU CLAIM TO SAY THAT TODAY? Luke 16:10-13.It’s time to examine oneself and make a genuine change of heart, so that the GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE in God’s LOVINGKINDNESS and BLESSEDNESS, may come to you now and always in Him, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“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 28:20-22.

“He that is FAITHFUL in that which is least is FAITHFUL also in much: and he that is UNJUST in the least is UNJUST also in much. 11 If therefore ye have not been FAITHFUL in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the TRUE RICHES? 12 And if ye have not been FAITHFUL in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own? 13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon” Luke 16:10-13.

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE of this WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30.”EXAMINE YOURSELVES, whether ye be in the faith; PROVE your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, EXCEPT YE BE REPROBATES?” 2 Corinthians 13:5.e

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL – YOU NEED TO DARE YOUR FEAR – IN ORDER TO BECOME THE YOU – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD BY FAITH!

Start your daily DAWN day on a very high note on God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. This is possible when you resolve to daily and now, DARE your FEAR with the FAITH of the grace of God that LIVES within you. This is the only way to BECOME or BE what God in Christ Jesus has made you BE in REDEMPTION, especially in all the challenging times and circumstances.

You must arise in grace and DARE your FEAR with FAITH in God, in His WORD, in order to enhance your Now – today and set your tomorrow ready for an Onwards and Upwards ALTITUDE. All for these are for these simple REASONS:

** FEAR is the enemy Policing Officer – that is – the policing vehicle of darkness at war to captivate your FAITH of becoming whom God has made you to be.

** FEAR has the enabling tracts of robbing one of the potential and the purpose of accomplishment and fulfilment.

** FEAR creates insecurity, it captivates, robs one of self-esteem, self-defence, self-Worth and dignity.

** FEAR has the capacity to destroy life vision and mission.

** FEAR can cripple and paralyse you, rob you of hope, faith and love in life and godly living. For it intimidates and makes you inferior or with inferiority complex.

** FEAR can eventually leads to the death of anything be it human or projects, relationships, business and such likes.

GOD IS FAITHFUL – DARE YOUR FEAR TO BECOME THE YOU IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD BY FAITH. The only way to police fear and keep fear at bay, that is, where it belongs is to DARE it in steadfast FAITH. And FAITH is acting correspondingly on whom and what you POSSIBLY believe on the WORD of God in God. When you POSSIBLY believe God can make you better and great; and you believe in the cause and course of God’s WORD to make you better and great, FEAR disappears because FAITH has come to take it’s place in you and to displace the fear phobia. Know for sure that anytime and when FAITH shows up, FEAR is paralyzed and crippled from functioning.

For FAITH is the VICTORY to TRIUMPH your world of daily fear phobia for Security and Self-Worth of who you are in God by Christ Jesus; and of what to – eat, drink and put on, and such like – in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

And God has dealt to everyone THE MEASURE of FAITH and THE MEASURE of His enabling GRACE to live life in full – triumphantly and wholly in everyway.

There are over 365 Scriptures of FEAR NOT in the Holy Writ – The BIBLE; and to live in VICTORY over FEAR; thus indicate a more than enough for each day. Therefore, FEAR NOT – that’s the Living and Soaring spirit of the Eagle to rule and reign in DOMINION and EXALTATION in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

Jesus had made you free from fear by BECOMING human first, that you by His redemption, might be free, and free indeed from the spirit and bondage of fear in everyway and everywhere. DARE NOW TO BE what you are in God in Christ Jesus stead, according to the scriptural writ concerning you in Him. And I therefore say again:

DARE your FEAR with the FAITH of the grace of God that LIVES within you. This is the only way to BECOME or BE what God in Christ Jesus has made you BE in REDEMPTION.

FAITHFULNESS: THE NEED TO LIVE FAITHFUL TOWARD GOD AND TOWARD MEN!

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence TOWARD God, and Toward men” Acts 24:16.

“HOLDING the MYSTERY OF THE FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

The knowing that GOD IS FAITHFUL and we need to live FAITHFUL and FAITHFULLY TOWARD Him, is a gracious and graceful place and position to be in Christ Jesus stead; but that’s not complimentary enough until we actualised our life, by being FAITHFUL and FAITHFULLY TOWARD men, especially those that are set apart to LOOK WELL and ACCOUNT for souls in the Kingdom spiritually.

It dose mean, that we can’t claim to be FAITHFUL toward God, while we go about living UNFAITHFUL toward those who oversees our spiritual well-being in Christ Jesus stead. It is a dangerous place to take when you are not living Scripturally FAITHFUL and FAITHFULLY TOWARD the one you incline your spiritual mentorship in leadership toward irrespective of any circumstance. Today, we have lots and loads of loose or loosen believers who thinks freedom in Christ Jesus stead or under grace is without boundaries. Unfortunately, many have not taken time to read the clauses in Galatians 5:1, 13 (1-25), as to not using their freedom or liberty in Christ Jesus for FLESH-RULED behaviours. Hence many do not know how to BEHAVE themselves in the house of God, for which Apostle Paul cautioned, charged, admonished and exhorted Timothy in such respect as in the Holy writ of – 1 Timothy 3:14-15.

Apostle Paul was such an outstanding Apostle, who knew what it means to hold the mystery of the Gospel FAITH in PURE CONSCIENCE and to live in GOOD and FAITHFUL CONSCIENCE toward God and toward men – Acts 24:16; 1 Timothy 3:9. As such he could hand over the failing UNFAITHFUL BRETHREN to satan to teach such the needed lesson to value their FAITH peradventure; and to help such see the need to live Scripturally FAITHFUL in all that pertains to doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead – Colossians 1:28-29; 1 Corinthians 5:1-6. He could do this on the principle of knowing the responsibility and accountability on his shoulder as an OVERSEER over God’s heritage, in order to present them perfect – complete, whole – as one that’s being looked up for spiritual guidance toward God in Christ Jesus stead; also, for the reason of the abundant of grace in revelation that he has received of God in the Gospel – Colossians 1:28-29; Galatians 1:11-24.

However, the same Apostle Paul, in order to ACCOUNT FAITHFULLY to his MINISTERIAL set CALL and PURSUIT in God in Christ Jesus stead, was able also to SAY and ACCOUNT graciously and gracefully of the FAITHFUL BRETHREN about him; these are people he can ascertain and account of their being FAITHFUL and in FAITHFULNESS in Christ without a shadow of – RESPECT of persons or for any GAIN as some may be lured to do. He knows the implications of such PRINCIPLED responsibility and accountability to be an OVERSEER over God’s people spiritual well-being in Christ Jesus stead. Hence a Gospel Minister, POSITIONED to ATTEST and ACCOUNT of the FAITH of the flocks must see it as a SACRED duty, privileged and opportunity to SERVE FAITHFUL and FAITHFULLY toward God and toward men.

Herein are few examples of FAITHFUL Brethren in Christ Jesus as accredited by Apostle Paul and Peter Account and are not limited however:

** Tychicus – (A BELOVED Brother, A FAITHFUL Minister and Fellowservant in the Lord) – Colossians 4:7-8 ; Ephesians 6:21-22.

** Onesimus – (A FAITHFUL and BELOVED Brother) – Colossians 4:9.

** Epaphras – (A Dear Fellowservant and FAITHFUL Minister) – Colossians 1:7.

** Timotheus – (A BELOVED Son and FAITHFUL in the Lord) – 1 Corinthians 4:17.

** Lydia – (A BELOVED and FAITHFUL Woman in the Lord) – Acts 16:14-16.

** Silvanus – (A FAITHFUL Brother) – 1 Peter 5:12.

There are other FAITHFUL Brethren though not mentioned as Ephesians 1:1 will enjoin of those in Christ Jesus. The essence of these mentioned, is to indicate that our being FAITHFUL is not only TOWARD God, but also TOWARD men – especially those who are place of God to OVERSEE your spiritual well-being in Christ Jesus stead. They have a responsibility and accountability in principle to ensure they bestow and commit Kingdom Ministerial work only to the FAITHFUL Brethren – 2 Timothy 2:1-3; and knowing this, that it’s not all in the house of God have FAITH or rather are endeavouring to live FAITHFUL to the CAUSE of God and toward men – 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Obey them that have the RULE over you, and SUBMIT yourselves: for they WATCH for your souls, as they that MUST GIVE ACCOUNT, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you” Hebrews 13:17.”Be thou DILIGENT to KNOW the STATE of thy FLOCKS, and LOOK WELL to thy HERDS” Proverbs 27:23.

“Let a man so ACCOUNT of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and STEWARDS OF THE MYSTERIES of God. 2 Moreover it is REQUIRED in STEWARDS, that a man be found FAITHFUL. 3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man’s judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self” 1 Corinthians 4:1-3.n

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL IS REWARDING!

Many times I have come across the QUEST for an ANSWER by some Believers who are genuine in their dedication and commitment toward God and toward men as to say if indeed being FAITHFUL, that’s is, FAITHFULNESS, is still REWARDING at all. Some of these people have been beaten and battered in life in many ways that the drive and passion to remain faithful seems deceptive, illusive and unrealistic in life and godly living to them.

And sometimes as a Pastor, you are almost drawn into these sentiments of people whose acts of FAITHFULNESS are shattered, when you are presented with the vivid facts of their encounters and experiences. Especially when you see matters of life in this light:

** A woman being beaten up and maimed by the temperamental and untampered husband or like another husband having a wife you can’t truly be assured anymore of her ways due to the change from a WE statement to an – I, ME and MYSELF trinity.

** When an employee working and putting up with much of the skill to see the business setting THRIVE for the good of the Business with hope while such employee is being undermined by the employer with no fair and justifiable returns; or an employer doing and going beyond the company capacity to ensure employees are looked after, are given a good commensurate returns and care, while therein are some mean, dubious, undedicated and untrustworthy employee, who are there only for the looting, wasting and undermining the prospects of seeing such Business THRIVE knowingly and unknowingly; and they knowing that their doings may have terrible impact on them and all those who looks up to them through that means for their livelihood.

** When a government is failing in governance to the cause and course of giving leadership and governance in the distribution of the set resources to everyone without prejudice, discrimination and dissemination and such like; while there are some others within the system sabotaging the good effort and structure in place for the good governance and wealth distribution to all by their wicked, crafty, cunning and evil intent to loot the system and make it fail at no consequence.** And the list goes on and on in various life applications of the challenge of FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL. You can name them too to make up this paragraph.

However, I am emboldened to say by the light of the Scriptures that BEING FAITHFUL – that is, FAITHFULNESS is rewarding in God, no Matter the prevailing challenges and circumstances that one might face or have been facing for a while or may face later on. For me, the knowing that God is FAITHFUL to Himself and His WORD in all about LIFE and GODLY LIVING, I recommend again of the need to live FAITHFUL. Hence, we are employed and enjoined as Believers in Christ Jesus stead, that in whatever capacity – WORD OR DEED, in carrying out our duty or Services, as toward God and toward man, we should do it as unto God in the name of Jesus Christ; for God is FAITHFUL to REWARD us accordingly in spite of all happenings, in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Therefore I say to you, holdfast and firmly the MYSTERY of your FAITH in the grace in Christ Jesus stead, with a PURE CONSCIENCE.

Herein are few hints but not limited to indicate that FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL, IS REWARDING in God, in Christ Jesus stead:

1. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, gets one an enriching rewards and abounds with blessings. Proverbs 28:20; Proverbs 10:22; Ephesians 1:3.

2. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, permits progress and abounds with healing and health. Proverbs 13:17; 2 Corinthians 5:20.

3. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with refreshing grace for the good of others. Proverbs 25:13; Isaiah 44:24-26.

4. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with commendation and the enabling to increase and promotion. Matthew 25:21, 23; Mark 10:28-30.

5. FAITHFULNESS – Being FAITHFUL, abounds with eternal reward. Matthew 25:21b, 23b; Mark 10:28-30.

“But the Lord is FAITHFUL, who shall STABLISH you, and KEEP you from EVIL” 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

“And WHATSOEVER ye do in WORD or DEED, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him” Colossians 3:17.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence TOWARD God, and TOWARD men” Acts 24:16.

“Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

“Let us hold fast the PROFESSION of our faith without wavering; for He is FAITHFUL that PROMISED” Hebrews 10:23.

“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.s

FAITHFULNESS – BEING FAITHFUL IS LIVING BLESSED – TO BE A BLESSING!

To being BLESSED is to be EMPOWERED in God’s grace to SUCCEED, ACHIEVE, THRIVE, BECOME and MORE; and to live every venture and endeavour of life, with FULFILMENT, through a gracious and graceful plan, purpose and pursuit in God’s BLESSEDNESS.

Know for certainly – knowingly and unknowingly, that you are BLESSED to BE a BLESSING for the REASON being that:

** It is a DONE promised blessing of God in our redemption in Christ Jesus.

** It’s the blessing that’s free of fear, sorrow, pain, envy, jealousy and anguish, but always enriching, assuring and ensuring.

** God’s BLESSING is not a FEELING, it is in the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING – that’s the only way you can BE a BLESSING too.

** God’s BLESSING is not car, property, money, empire of business and more; but the ENABLING ENDOWMENTS of God that makes the things you need possible – such like as – car, house, business, money, health, and more – come into reality effortless, gracefully and graciously.

** And God’s BLESSING keeps you in His Church or Presence and enables one to go from strenght unto strenght. Meaning, God’s BLESSING doesn’t take you away from His presence or Church as we’ve seen many BACKSLIDE from FAITH for having some little tokens of money or car or property and more which they attached as BLESSING unfortunately.

I am Blessed – I know It; I know you are Blessed, I hope you know it quite well too. I hereby ask again – Do you know that you are BLESSED? If yes, then stop running around as one without KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING. Live and walk in wisdom.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING ON CONTEXT:

“Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. 13 And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 In response Jesus said to it, “Let no one eat fruit from you ever again . . .20 Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter, remembering, said to Him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.” 22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. 23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. 25 “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.” And His disciples heard it” Mark 11:12-14, 20-26 NKJV

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. 29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified” Romans 8:28-30. NKJV

“No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” 1 Corinthians 10:13 NKJV

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for He is faithful that promised . . . 35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul” Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

However, this NOVEMBER 2020 theme will be expanded in course of the SERVICES & TIMES in all meetings through the year and Month in “Scripture Pasture” Study and “Pastoral Messages & Ministrations”.

This NOVEMBER, is the eleventh (cardinal number) month of the leap year 2020 and of the Decade 2020s is themed as: GOD IS FAITHFUL! –“Thriving And Achieving Life Plan, Purpose And pursuit meaningfully and in fulfilment, through Faithfulness (being faithful) as God Is, In Christ Jesus Stead”

GOD IS FAITHFUL – There’s the need as His children to reciprocate His nature in us as endorsed in 2 Peter 1:1-4, in being the object of His Faithfulness as we are of His Love as it’s written “Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 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”

AFD November 2020 Theme – GOD IS FAITHFUL! – and it is about
“Thriving And Achieving Life Plan, Purpose And pursuit meaningfully and in fulfilment, through Faithfulness (being faithful) as God Is, In Christ Jesus Stead”. Amen.

1 Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord”

Hebrews 10:23 “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for He is faithful that promised”

Luke 18:1-8 “. . . And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith (Greek “pistis” – means faithfulness) on the earth?” (Emphasis Mine)

Luke 16:1-13 “. . .He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own? No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon”.

Today we live in an age where faithfulness to ourselves and to others is in great demand for creating an atmosphere that we can enjoy. Unfortunately we are so eager to demand faithfulness from others while we may not be faithful ourselves even in the least of things.

Hence I am grateful to the Holy Spirit that this month He has constrained me to challenge us on the need of achieving life goals through faithfulness. Hence the reason to set tasks and targets for oneself in making it be.

We need to know that our God is a faithful God. This is just one basic nature of God – FAITHFULNESS. We being His children cannot afford to live in any other way and expect to achieve greatness in life.

The Results of Being Faithful

Great admirable marriages, homes & businesses are not achieved merely from structural design but from faithful human hearts. The results of being faithful are the prosperity and good success that we all desire. When we make faithfulness an avenue of achieving life’s goals, we promote honesty, decency and healthy lifestyles.

In the scripture quoted at the beginning, Luke 18:7-8, Jesus asked a question about faithfulness. The word FAITH is translated ‘pistis’ in Greek, which denotes faithfulness in English. Jesus wondered how many would be faithful – to trust God and wait upon His Word – without seeking alternative solutions to life’s challenges; more so, to await faithfully until He returns in the midst of good and challenging times. The 2nd main text, Luke 16:1-13, shows the reason that many of us cannot achieve our goals. It is because we are not faithful in matters entrusted into our hands by others.

God’s Faithful Nature

In achieving life’s goals, it would be great for you to look at the nature of God regarding faithfulness as could be found of Him in the following scriptural terms:.

  1. God is faithful to Himself. 2 Timothy 2:13
  2. God is faithful to His Word and promises. Hebrews 10:23
  3. God is faithful to His relationship. 1 Corinthians 1:9
  4. God is faithful to forgive. 1 John 1:9
  5. God is faithful in agreement. Deuteronomy 7:9
  6. God is faithful to establish and deliver. 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Thessalonians 3:3
  7. God is faithful to accomplish His part in the assignment that he gives to us. 1 Thessalonians 5:24
  8. God is a faithful creator. 1 Peter 4:19 . . . and many more of our God.

Know full well that we are the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture. Acts 17:24-29, Psalms 100:3. It then means that we can live a faithful life and achieve good successes. The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was faithful and prospered. The same grace is available to us today in spite of our challenges to be faithful and to prosper. Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2; 24:1)

Faithfulness Applied

  1. A faithful employee – Whatever position you hold, God requires you to be faithful. Matthew 24:45-51; Ephesians 6:5-8; 1 Peter 2:18-20; Colossians 3:22-25.
  2. A faithful employer – look after your staff well whatever the business. Ephesians 6:6-9; Colossians 4:1; Proverbs 11:24-26; Deuteronomy 10:17-18; Acts 10:34-35; Romans 2:11.
  3. Faithful in your relationships. This is a vital ingredient in enhancing a healthy society.
  • Faithfulness in the kingdom business. As a minister, pastor, ministry worker etc, you cannot afford to attend to ministry work in the way that pleases you and at the same time want God’s backing. No adulterations of any sort will make God be a part of it. Faithfulness to God’s Word and commands is a prerequisite to achieving desired goals. 1 Corinthians 4:2; 2 Timothy 2:1-2; Proverbs 27:23; John 21:15-17 (Numbers 12:7; Hebrews 3:2, 5).
  • In marriage one cannot afford to be unfaithful and achieve with God. 1 Timothy 3:11; Proverbs 31:10; Proverbs 20:6; Ephesians 5:21-33; 1 Peter 3:1-12.
  • Faithfulness is also vital in a parent – child relationship. Ephesians 6:1-4; Colossians 3:20-21; Proverbs 22:6
  • Faithfulness in friendships. Proverbs 27:6, 10; Proverbs 17:17; Proverbs 18:24.

Faithfulness Rewards:

  1. Abound with blessings. Proverbs 28:20
  2. Abound with health. Proverbs 13:17, 2 Corinthians 5:20
  3. A refresher for others. Proverbs 25:13
  4. There will be increase and promotion. Matthew 25:21,23
  5. There will be eternal reward. Matthew 25:21b, 23b

Finally, as one with an achievers’ mandate, I beckon on you to set task and target this month on how to walk in faithfulness if you want to partner with God. I pray you be found faithful in every area of your life through this month and thereafter.

May you Be FAITHFULLY PROSPERED in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in everyway in Christ Jesus Stead. Amen!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING ON THINK-TANK:

“Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. 13 And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 In response Jesus said to it, “Let no one eat fruit from you ever again . . .20 Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter, remembering, said to Him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.” 22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. 23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. 25 “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.” And His disciples heard it” Mark 11:12-14, 20-26 NKJV

“God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9 NKJV

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. 29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified” Romans 8:28-30. NKJV

“No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” 1 Corinthians 10:13 NKJV

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for He is faithful that promised . . . 35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul” Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

However, this NOVEMBER 2020 theme will be expanded in course of the SERVICES & TIMES in all meetings through the year and Month in “Scripture Pasture” Study and “Pastoral Messages & Ministrations”.

I gladly welcome you, your friends and family to be with us in Fellowship and Worship. I promise you that you can never be the same again as you ponder over the truth of these unadulterated, inspiring, revealing and empowering living word of God. I pray that God revitalize and rejuvenates you and all that is about you, so that you may become the very best of which God has created you to be in your daily journey of Destiny Molding, Life Transformation, Dignity Restoration and Kingdom Faith Establishment, Community Social Cohesion and Enrichment and Development, Success Empowerment & Fulfillment, Grace Impartation and more, while awaiting the Lord’s Return.

Until then, have a crown DECADE2020 – THE DECADE OF SIGNIFICANCE “The Decade Of Being Significant By The Living WORD”; and YEAR 2020 YEAR OF EXALTATION: LIVING THE EXALTED LIFE “The Year Of Thriving In The Consciousness of God’s Righteousness In Christ Jesus For The Greater, Colourful, Purposeful, Meaningful and Fulfilling Life”; and Month NOVEMBER 2020 – GOD IS FAITHFUL! “Thriving And Achieving Life Plan, Purpose And pursuit meaningfully and in fulfilment, through Faithfulness (being faithful) as God Is, In Christ Jesus Stead”

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE FULFILLED

By Leave a Comment

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE FULFILLED: BY THE PRINCIPLE OF THE WORD – AND NOT BY A DEFINITE METHODS!

In life ABUSE means – ABNORMAL (ABNORMALLY) USE. It’s a result of people being UNINFORMED of the PURPOSE of a thing. There’s ABUSE in almost in every places in life – abuse of people, position, power, resources (money, time and effort) and opportunities and materials.

An example of abusive atmosphere can be found in marriages. In some marriages, because majority of time most people are not properly INFORMED of the PURPOSE of MARRIAGE they abuse their spouses. We see often how many spent FORTUNE (Time, Money and Effort) preparing for a day WEDDING while they are not properly INFORMED to the set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for the MARRIAGE supposedly that should be for life in grace till death do either or both apart. Hence we see today many infighting and abuse within, and unnecessary reasons for divorce respectively. This OUGHT not to be, especially in a Born Again Christian Home. And unfortunately in most cases, where children are involved, it have created an incomprehensible and unimaginable devastating and depressing state of mind for the children in such marital relationship.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts. For by it many talents, vision and dreams to enhance life and godly living has ended up in the GRAVEYARDS unfulfilled.

In life as a child of God, you can only recover and enter your place of greatness and fulfilment when you discover the PRINCIPLE of the WORKING WORD of God to that your intended VISION. This is profound when one take the light from Habakkuk 2:2 which states “And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it”.

The scriptures did not say “He that RUNS or RUNNETH may READ’ but rather – “He MAY RUN that READS or READETH”. Meaning NO READING, NO RUNNING no matter the prevailing circumstances. The principle herein is this – you have to READ in order to acquire or until you obtain the required KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the said VISIONED CONCEPT – that is, the clarity to enable you WALK in WISDOM before running with that intended life vision in terms of – Executing Business/Enterprise, Pursuing a Career, Positioning towards Gospel Ministry, Governance in Politics/Governance, Leadership/Management, Marriage/Relationship of all sorts and many other such likes. When you don’t read before you run as Scripturally set, then failures and frustration awaits; just as many have fallen and become victims of their own creations; simply because of their RUNNING ahead by their mere ZEAL or PASSION, without READING to KNOW and UNDERSTAND, the FULNESS at hand of what it takes in their VISIONED CONCEPT.

Today, make amends, RE-EVALUATE your vision by READING again before RUNNING.

Therefore, as you set your day PLANS PURPOSE AND PURSUITS, endeavour to be sure by READING to UNDERSTAND before RUNNING with it. BE WELL INFORMED TO EXPERIENCE GENUINE TRANSFORMATION.

God wants you to both SUCCEED and be FULFILLED – it’s by PRINCIPLE and not by METHOD. For what may apply to one case may not apply to another hence application by METHODS will fail in most cases while application by PRINCIPLE will always triumph.

Have a gracious and graceful moment in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“This Book of the Law shall not DEPART from your mouth, but YOU shall MEDITATE in it day and night, that YOU may OBSERVE to do according to all that is written in it. For then YOU will MAKE your way PROSPEROUS, and then YOU will have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Truly, these times of IGNORANCE God overlooked, but now COMMANDS all men everywhere to REPENT (change of heart), 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31 (Emphasis Mine).

“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are MISTAKEN (ERRING), not KNOWING the Scriptures (PRINCIPLE OF GODLY LIVING) nor the power of God” Matthew 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).

THE NEED FOR KNOWLEDGE IN THE WORD

By Leave a Comment

There’s the need for knowledge and continuous knowledge in life. More importantly, there’s the need for the truth that emancipates, delivers and sets free with genuine freedom, which is as result of the knowledge in the WORD of God. Hence I do hereby offer you firstly, four things to know at least and remember in your keen for the knowledge, especially the knowledge in the WORD of God; for these will unveil the needed insights and foresights why crave for knowledge . . .

ALWAYS KNOW AND REMEMBER:

  1. That other Books may inform you, but the WORD of God – The Holy Bible – is the only authoritative, unadulterated and undiluted timeless book that is both informative and transformative for yesterday, today and tomorrow.
  2. That the Bible, the Holy WORD of God, is the only living written book, and the only book that the author is always present while you read it, giving you precise understanding of every facets written therein. 
  3. That it is not enough to KNOW the WORD. In order to be able to rightly apply the WORD you must endeavour and strive to UNDERSTAND what you know of the WORD. This will enable you to THRIVE and ACHIEVE in life, and to live in TRIUMPH, in VICTORY, in SUCCESS, in DOMINION, in FULFILMENT and as A MORE THAN A CONQUERORS.
  4. That The Bible can only cease to be a MYSTERY book and becomes a MESSAGE: Blessed Information Bringing Life Eternal, when one finds the key that unlocks the mystery through READING. For God is only a MYSTERY when His PERSON and WAYS are not known – Psalms 103:7.
  5. That The Bible, which is the WORD of God, is not a book that we conjure or conjure with, but it is a practical book of wisdom, life and grace which we practice in God’s BLERSSEDNESS in Christ Jesus.

A man’s ignorance is his own mountain and only by the knowledge and understanding of the truth will he be delivered and have true and genuine freedom. I do know and believe that the BIBLE – Blessed Information Bringing Life Eternal – is the only place of true and genuine information and knowledge for complete information, deliverance, transformation and freedom. The Bible may be seen as mysterious, but is not a mystical book, but a practical book of inspiration, revelation and empowerment. It’s not a truth that you conjure, but the truth that you practice. The Holy Bible is life and a life-giving and transfiguring book.

Through reading the WORD you can appropriate personal knowledge and understanding of your redemption in Christ of all that God has done in you, for you and with you, and He’s doing and will do through you. Here are few reasons to crave and seek for knowledge of all that God deed for you in Christ Jesus, in order to appropriate your redemption into reality:

  1. That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.
  2. That knowledge will deliver one from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29.
  3. That your dominion in life is a product of your knowledge – Daniel 11:32.
  4. That a man’s value for knowledge determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.
  5. That knowledge is power, freedom and dominion, while religion is imprisonment and bondage – Luke 11:52.
  6. That the grace that determines our status in life is a function of knowledge – 2 Peter 1:2.
  7. That when you run after knowledge, goodness and mercy run after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.
  8. That People who hate knowledge and understanding can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Proverbs 21:16; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.
  9. That age is not equal to knowledge, and should not be taken for knowledge – Job 32:7-9.
  10. That if your thoughts are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.
  11. That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.
  12. That whatever knowledge you have no value for; you have no access to – 6:5-6.
  13. That studying for knowledge is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.
  14. That the only authentic proof of knowledge is freedom, and liberty – John 8:32.
  15. That when you don’t grow in the spirit of knowledge, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.
  16. That those who seek to know men, don’t know God; when you seek to know God, people will seek to know you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.
  17. That your knowledge of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.
  18. And you can’t possess a lasting possession with unsecured knowledge – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

In Jesus’ name, I pray direction and guidance for you as you resolve to ensure that the reading of the Word is your responsibility and not somebody else’s for you. I sincerely wish you, every of God’s grace and blessing accordingly.

In His WORLD For His Glory,

Rev Chukie MORSI Snr.

AFD AUGUST 2017 EDITION

By Leave a Comment

GREETINGS:

Shalom  & Kingdom Greetings! By the grace of Father God in Christ Jesus, my wife Faith and I would like to welcome you again to the dawn of the eight Month – AUGUST in the LORD’S year 2017 as He crown your life with the Year2017 themed – POSSIBIBLITIES. For this cause we’ve set out in grace to earnestly pray on your behalf through the year, in the awesome and covenant, gracious and graceful, precious name of our redeemer King, Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, Amen. We do also say welcome to the new and existing recipients of the Monthly TEACHING Newsletter Publications of the ‘Achievers’ FAITH Digest’ Year 2017.

As Month AUGUST is  the eight Month of Year 2017 Georgian Calendar, it’s considered as our month of exercising the spirit of taking charge and control, dominion, innocence, guiltless, sinless consciousness as once entrusted to Adam after God rested on the seventh day, though he failed God in Eden of Genesis. The number EIGHT speaks as NEW BEGINING day or NEW day of BEGINING  to exercise the rights and privileges entrusted to man to be God’s ambassador, embassy and representative on Earth; therefore, in the light with the Father God mandate in our REDEMPTION and by the reason of what our REDEEMER, Saviour and Lord  Christ has done for us in REDEMPTION, this Month AUGUST 2017 EDITION of the AFD is themed: AUGUST YOUR LIFE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS! A month of “The PATH To A DIGNIFIED Life”.

To August is to be – graciously dignified, profoundly honoured, befitting status of Lord and Lordship, eminence, majestic and venerable. Therefore, to “August in the RIGHTEOUSNESS” of God which is of Christ, puts one in a unique pedestal of God’s eternal plans, purposes and pursuits. Upon this I welcome you to the PATH to August your life in – RIGHTEOUSNESS!

A Parallel to this same theme published in 2015 can be obtained in this link: 

http://www.42ndgenerationfoundation.com/achieversfaithdigest/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/AFD-August2015-Edition-Interactive.pdf

By this knowledge and understanding, I pray that as you incline to read and hear God’s sayings through this publication edition, that the enabling grace of our God will be made available unto you and minister wholly to your well being – spirit, soul and body – in Jesus precious Name, Amen; even as it’s written in – 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and Hebrews 4:12-13 and Colossians 2:9-10.

Also, I do know that a man’s ignorance is his own mountain and the knowledge of the truth will set him free. Hence I therefore commend you to take time to ponder and meditate on the theme through and through in prayers and where possible accompany with fasting even as the Scripture below do enjoin.

Acts 20:32 “And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified“.

Here Is The Wisdom For Today For The Quest Above!
A Colourful and thriving life is gracious, graceful and lovely, more so, when God’s intent for your life is to be whole, complete and full in all that pertains to life and godliness, for which Christ came to pay the ransom for our WHOLESOME REDEMPTION. The knowing and understanding of this God’s concept of grace for us is our RIGHTEOUSNESS in Him by Christ Jesus, which enable and make us to ride steadily and readily to enact our God given plans, purposes and pursuits to succeed, triumph, win and overcome and be a victor in life and godliness no matter where and when and how. And that makes colourful and thriving life accessible and dignified, and the knowing and understanding that the greater one lives in you.
I pray you Blessed! Be empowered to succeed, triumph and be victorious and in dominion as you adhered to ensure the holy writ purpose of God about you and I, as in this month AUGUST theme – AUGUST YOUR LIFE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS! “The PATH To Live A DIGNIFIED Life” while awaiting His return. Amen!

In a nut shell, the theme EDITION could be characterised but not limited into this headings:

** Receive Addition By God’s Righteousness – The Righteousness Which Is Of FAITH In Christ Jesus – Not Man’s Ordinance, Oblation, Creed And Customised Tradition of Bondage!

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 …For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)” Romans 10:1-6.

** In The Kingdom, Kings Rule & Reign – But Thrones Are Established By Righteousness!  To August – Reign & Rule – In Life As The REDEEMED Royal Priesthood That’s Made King & Priest Unto God – You Need To Be Established In The Righteousness Of God In Christ Jesus. Amen!

“It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness” Proverbs 16:12. 

“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“ 1 Peter 2:5, 9.

** The Work & Effect To AUGUST Your Life In Righteousness – PEACE, QUIETNESS & ASSURANCE Forever! Righteousness – the Kingdom streamline to AUGUST life, is the right of grace to stand upright in faith before Father God without fear, guilt, shame and to be undaunted by the accuser of the brethren, the devil.
The Scriptures indicates that the kingdom of God is not just food, drink and pleasures only, but Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy Ghost. When we seek the …kingdom of God firstly, and His righteousness, which is, His will, commanded deed and ways of doing & living life, ALL other things – food, drink, pleasures and more will be added unto us accordingly..
Righteousness works, promotes and enhances PEACE with God, self and others. PEACE – which means concord, agreement, harmony and a mind free from fears and agitating passions and moral conflicts. The resultant of righteousness is innermost quietness or resolve, assurance and exaltation.  I pray that as you resolve for righteousness, may you experience the work and effect of the grace of God in this regard.

“And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever” Isaiah 32:17.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33.

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost” Romans 14:17.

“And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace” James 3:18.

** Awaits You Is The CROWN of Righteousness – By The Righteous Judge: August Your Life To Earn It – Strive Righteously!
It’s awesome, gracious and graceful to stand before Father God’s presence, day by day until final day, without the sense of guilt, or inferiority or sin consciousness. That is to be a crown of the believer’s life.  There’s A CROWN of righteousness laid up and awaiting ALL who August their life in righteousness by – fighting the good fight of righteousness, finishing the good course of righteousness and keeping the faith of righteousness while on this side of the heavens as Apostle Paul affirmed to Received.

“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.

“Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. 3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. 6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits” 2 Timothy 2:1-6.

** To Achieve Greatness With God’s Grace For Divine Favour: It’s The Grace That Reigns And Works Through The Righteousness of God In Christ Jesus – Nothing More, Nothing Less! There You Reign In Grace With Outpouring Favour of God. Anything otherwise is man’s oblation, creed, ordinance and traditions that leads to bondage at the end – which many are trapped inside today!

“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.) . . .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.

** The Path To August A Dignified Life – It’s In God’s Presence: The Righteousness of God In Christ Jesus! It exalts, promotes, illuminates more and more, brighter and brighter until the dawn of the complete work of grace is perfected in us. For we saved, we are been save, and we shall be save.

“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

“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people“ Proverbs 14:34.

** Let Your Path & Steps Be Ordered In Righteousness By The Lord: There You Can August Your Life With Light & Will Not Beg For Bread!

“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18.

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand. 25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread” Psalms 37:23-25.

** Your Fulness In God Is In Christ Jesus, and He’s The Head And Above ALL Power & Authority In The Universe!

“For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power“ Colossians 2:9-10.

** You Are Complete And Completely Made Whole: spirit, soul & body, In Christ Jesus – Don’t Live or Think or Believe For Less Until Christ Returns!

“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23.

** Communicate Your Faith In Order To Appropriate Your Being Complete – Whole And Perfected – In Christ. This You Can Do By The Acknowledging of Every Good Thing Done In You, Being Done In & Through You In Christ Jesus! Amen.

“That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6.

** Don’t Be Mistaken By Any For Whatsoever – You Are Complete & Made Righteous In Christ Jesus In God! That Settles It!

“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31.

“For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; 2 that their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; 3 in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words . . . And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power” Colossians 2:1-4, 10.

Further Scriptural Reading To This Theme:

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to ever…y one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Romans 10:1-13.

Good Success

Good Success: Being Fulfilled In Life!

Success is – Turning Failure Inside Out. But good success is being fulfilled in all of your life endeavours. That’s why you can’t just give up, because there’s something about you that makes me believe that you can turn inward-out your limitations to something the world has been waiting and craving for that’s in you – that’s the thriving you in you – called GRACE, SUCCESS & FULFILMENT.

God knows it about you, and I do believe Him too by His WORD for you, hence – Don’t Give Up! Don’t cast away your confidence and assuredness away for any reason. Be strong and very courageous in God’s power and might to make it complete in you in Christ Jesus. Your fulfilment in Christ Jesus is eminent. Amen.

“Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul”. Hebrews 10:35-39.

“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.

“Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them. 7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest. 8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” Joshua 1:6-9.

Worth Pondering: Avoid Being MISTAKEN

Worth Pondering: Avoid Being MISTAKEN – READ To Know The Scriptures!

You are mistaken, walking in error and powerless because you simply RUN before you READ; hence Read first if you must Run to achieve, succeed, triumph and more in that visioned concept.

READ BEFORE YOU RUN – DON’T PUT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (mistaken), not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God” (Matthew 22:29) (Emphasis mine).

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

You Are BORN Of God To SUCCEED And Be FULFILLED

You Are BORN Of God To SUCCEED And Be FULFILLED: It’s By The PRINCIPLE of The WORD and Not By METHODS!

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts. For by it many talents, vision, dreams, aspirations and such likes, needed to enhance life and godly living has ended up in the graveyards UNFULFILLED. And those by chance to amanced anything by ignorance, have ended up in a deadly place as it’s written –

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD” Proverbs 21:16.

In life as a child of God, you can only recover and enter your place of greatness and fulfilment when you discover the PRINCIPLE of the WORKING WORD of God. This is profound when one take the light from Habakkuk 2:2 which states:

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it”.

The scriptures did not say “He that RUNS or RUNNETH may READ’ but rather that “He MAY RUN that READS or READETH”. Meaning NO READING, NO RUNNING no matter the prevailing circumstances.

The principle there, is this, that you have to READ in order to acquire the required KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the VISIONED CONCEPT, that is, the clarity to enable you WALK in WISDOM before running with that life vision of Business, Career, Ministry, Governance, Marriage (Marital-Relationships), Friendship-Relationship and more.

If otherwise, failures awaits, just as many have fallen and become victims of their own creations. It’s because of their RUNNING by a mere zeal or passion without READING to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the fulness at hand of their VISIONED CONCEPT. Simply know for the truth that a good understanding breeds Favour, productivity, efficiency, effortless and calmness as it’s written:

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS IS HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE, STRESSFUL)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine).

Today, make amends, RE-EVALUATE your vision by READING again before RUNNING.

Have a graceful and blessed day.

THE POWER OF CHOICE – To BECOME By The WORD Is BLESSEDNESS . . . And To BECOME By IGNORANCE Is DEADLY!

“. . . And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

THE EAGLE WAY

By Leave a Comment

THE EAGLE WAY: LEADERSHIP AND MENTORSHIP!

A CHILD is BORN, but a SON is MADE. Sonship is not a MERE GIVEN neither should a CHILD BE BORN FOR NOTHING. The EAGLE WAY – It’s about THE EAGLE and EAGLET, that is, LEADERSHIP and MENTORSHIP. For SUCCESS without a SUCCESSOR is failure in disguise; in same scenario, PROSPERITY without POSTERITY in view is a complete unprecedented disaster in waiting.

The EAGLE unlike the OSTRICH is known for replicating it’s kind, that is, are DILIGENT in making the EAGLET to become another KING of the Sky. It’s a believe that the sky is so wide and broad that there can be no room for clashes and jealousy for any that WILLS DILIGENTLY to BECOME and to MAKE others to be on the sky. That’s the act that makes the Eagle to turn the Eaglet to be king of the sky. This phenomenon is same, whether in family, ministry, business, career, politics and in every endeavour of human acts of doing life.

In the same scenario, Jesus said to Peter, FEED (look well after) my SHEEP and my LAMBS. When the SHEEP are well looked after they give life to the LAMBS; and when the LAMBS are well looked after, they BECOME a SHEEP to give life to another lamb. That’s the process of PRODUCTIVITY and reproducing ones kind BECOMES inevitable. Therefore the EAGLE WAY! is to MAKE CONVERTS into DISCIPLES and to MAKE DISCIPLES to MAKE CONVERTS, that is, to replicates to other Disciples.

Hence LEADERSHIP without appropriate MENTORSHIP destroys the SEED of GREATNESS; and MENTORSHIP without appropriate LEADERSHIP is very dangerous to PRODUCTIVE humanity, and as such to ones plans, purposes and pursuits in any endeavour of doing life.

Stop being a BOSS today! Be a LEADER and start MENTORING. Stop being a headless chicken WANDERING around, locate a LEADER and SUBMIT to MENTORSHIP. Greatness is within your reach, cleave to the wind, the Holy Spirit, He will glide you to greatness if you are willing and obedient.

I PRAY YOU LEARN WISDOM TODAY.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING:

“For unto us a CHILD IS BORN, unto us a SON IS GIVEN (MADE): and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace . . .” Isaiah 9:6-7 (Emphasis Mine) (Galatians 4:1-7).

“Be thou DILIGENT to KNOW the STATE of thy FLOCKS, and look WELL to thy HERDS” Proverbs 27:23.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before kings (Honour/Dignity); he shall not STAND before MEAN (Obscure) men” Proverbs 22:29 (Emphasis Mine)..

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS (SHEPHERD) according to mine heart, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15 (Emphasis Mine).

“So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, LOVEST thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, FEED MY LAMBS. 16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, LOVEST thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, FEED MY SHEEP. 17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, LOVEST thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, LOVEST thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, FEED MY SHEEP” John 21:15-17.

“Be thou DILIGENT to KNOW the STATE of thy FLOCKS, and LOOK WELL to thy HERDS. 24 For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation? 25 The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered. 26 The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field. 27 And thou shalt have goats’ milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens” Proverbs 27:23-27.
