THIS CHRISTMAS – GET GOD’S APPROVAL – SEEK TO KNOW GOD

THIS CHRISTMAS – GET GOD’S APPROVAL – SEEK TO KNOW GOD: GET YOURSELF A GOOD STUDY BIBLE!

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (APPLYING) THE WORD of TRUTH” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; JESUS OF NAZARETH, A MAN APPROVED OF GOD among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: 24 whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it”  Acts 2:22-24.

It’s time to seek God’s APPROVAL on your life and well being in doing life and living godly rather than men APPLAUD in your life as Jesus experience of God in humanity. And in getting God’s approval as Jesus Christ received in humanity, in order to authenticate Him as the vessel in use for His kingdom cause on humanity, and in fulfilling divinity purpose, one must come to the place of ACKNOWLEDGING – having the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of – God in Christ Jesus stead – for therein is life in essence.

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

God is only a mystery to people when His PERSON and WAYS are not KNOWN by them. Especially to those whose knowing of him it’s purely for only the SIGNS and MIRACLES they seek and pursue after – which is really unfortunate.

“He made KNOWN HIS WAYS unto MOSES, HIS ACTS (SIGNS/MIRACLES) unto the CHILDREN of Israel” Psalms 103:7 (Emphasis Mine).

It’s time to cease to be a sign and miracle seeker and pursuer, and become God’s agent of use to bring about His miraculous signs and doing to others. Henceforth, cease to be a miracle and sign seeker and endeavour to KNOW God in His PERSON and WAYS of life –  and in doing life  and living godly also; for therein you can be His vessel of use to carry on and extend His BLESSEDNESS to others. Mark 16:20. Then ALL things will become TANGIBLE, REACHABLE and REAL, as God in His WORD to you.

You don’t have to PERISH as the children of Israelites did experience in the wilderness; for  they NEVER KNEW nor UNDERSTAND the WAYS of God as Moses did experience with God, except for only cravings – the MIRACLES and SIGNS – they sought after in God to experience as enjoined in Psalms 103:7.

“He made KNOWN HIS WAYS unto MOSES, HIS ACTS (SIGNS/MIRACLES) unto the CHILDREN of ISRAEL” Psalms 103:7 (Emphasis Mine).

Do/Are you keen to know WHAT BECAME OF THAT GENERATION WHO SEEKS ONLY OR ARE MORE OF THE SIGNS AND MIRACLES IN THEIR CRAVEN? They never entered their promised land BLESSING with God as may have been expected, instead they all perished in spite of all signs and miracles received in the wilderness journey. [1 Corinthians 10:1-10]. They were MORE keen to have the pleasure that’s of God than the crave to knowing God and the path of God that brings about the graciousnesss and gracefulness to life and the pleasures, which is the consequence and results of knowing God and His ways. Psalms 16:11. Upon this, I highly COMMEND Acts 20:32 to you by God’s grace, your today and tomorrow as it’s written:

“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” Act 20:32.

It is only Joshua and Caleb of that generation, who had sought after Moses concept of God – knowing Him for who He is – His ways and person..

May God be REAL, TANGIBLE and REACHABLE by you in THIS CHRISTMAS.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Thou wilt SHEW me the PATH (WAYS) OF LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND there are PLEASURES for evermore” Psalms 16:11 Emphasis Mine.

“He made KNOWN HIS WAYS unto MOSES, HIS ACTS (SIGNS/MIRACLES) unto the CHILDREN of ISRAEL” Psalms 103:7 (Emphasis Mine).

“And this is LIFE ETERNAL, that they might KNOW thee the ONLY TRUE God, and Jesus Christ, WHOM thou hast SENT” John 17:3.

“And these SIGNS shall FOLLOW them that BELIEVE; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 they shall take up serpents; and if they DRINK any deadly thing, it shall not HURT them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and CONFIRMING THE WORD WITH SIGNS FOLLOWING. Amen” Mark 16:17-20.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (APPLYING) THE WORD of TRUTH” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“But continue thou in the things which thou hast LEARNED and hast been ASSURED of, knowing of whom thou hast LEARNED them; 15 and that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All SCRIPTURE is given by INSPIRATION of God, and is PROFITABLE for doctrine, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION, for INSTRUCTION in RIGHTEOUSNESS: 17 that the man of God may be PERFECT, throughly FURNISHED unto all good works” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.

“Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be IGNORANT, how that all our fathers were UNDER THE CLOUD, and all PASSED THROUGH THE SEA; 2 and were all BAPTIZED unto Moses in the CLOUD and in the SEA; 3 and did all EAT the same SPIRITUAL MEAT; 4 and did all DRINK the same SPIRITUAL DRINK: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that FOLLOWED them: and that rock was Christ. 5 But with many of them GOD WAS NOT WELL PLEASED: FOR THEY WERE OVERTHROWN IN THE WILDERNESS. 6 Now these things were our EXAMPLES, to the INTENT we should not LUST after EVIL things, as they also LUSTED. 7 Neither be ye IDOLATERS, as were some of them; as it is written, The people SAT DOWN to EAT and DRINK, and ROSE UP to PLAY. 8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. 9 Neither let us TEMPT Christ, as some of them also TEMPTED, and were DESTROYED of serpents. 10 Neither MURMUR ye, as some of them also MURMURED, and were DESTROYED of the destroyer” 1 Corinthians 10:1-10.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; JESUS OF NAZARETH, A MAN APPROVED OF GOD among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: 24 whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it”  Acts 2:22-24..
