You CAN Triumph and Overcome THAT Unwarranted LIFE Pressure: There’s The STAND in The GRACE to Say ‘NO’ in You!
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into THIS GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.
It’s a high time to BUILD your life on PRINCIPLE – the PRINCIPLE that’s BASED ON God’s WORD and BUILT FROM the WORD of God. You need to ensure and be assured that what’s paramount in all your decisions on daily basis is PRINCIPLES that stands on God’s WORD of GRACE, in all you do in LIFE and GODLINESS. You can’t afford as the REDEEMED of God to fall PREY of the ENEMY and COHORTS, except for your inability to take and have a built up PRINCIPLE that STAND by your FAITH and GRACE in Christ Jesus stead. When you don’t have a PRINCIPLED stand that’s BASED ON God’s WORD and that’s BUILT FROM God’s WORD, you will FALL a PREY to any MANOEUVRE that comes on your path of life by the ENEMY and COHORTS in waiting to devour.
“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY THE DEVIL, as a ROARING lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the SAME AFFLICTIONS are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11.
May I say and assure you that in Christ Jesus stead, you can make it GREAT in life and BECOME what God has MADE you be in salvation through REDEMPTION; and by the entrusted GRACE of God, if you CAN know the HOW to say ‘NO’ to ALL THINGS that LIMITS you and CONTRAVENE your ACTS of FAITH in Christ Jesus, NOTHING can stop your intended desire in and with God, in Christ Jesus stead – no matter what it is.
Grace to me in sum, is – God’s Riches At Christ Expense. And there’s an inner deposited ability and capacity embedded in your Salvation in Christ Jesus, and is called GRACE, and it’s to help you say NO to POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. It thus means you can say NO to anything that limits you from where God in Christ Jesus have enthroned you in Him. You have a choice to resist steadfastly any act of sinful demands, worldly prepositions and lustful pressures that crosses your path of destiny in order for you to succeed, be fulfilled and to eat the good of the land wherein you dwell, work, school and do life.
Colourful living and glorious life is not cheap, it demands the EXERCISING of the will of the GRACE that CAN say NO to setbacks and failure steadfastly. And you are GIVEN THE MEASURE of GRACE and FAITH to say “NO”. Therefore blame no one any more if you falter to be PRINCIPLED to exercise the will given measure to VICTORY, TRIUMPH and DOMINION.
If you CAN discipline and principle yourself to say NO, you will and can keep yourself above the waters that’s aimed to limit you from your godly position of greatness in Christ Jesus; and in knowing and understanding what the Scripture has said about you.
Saying “NO” is godly and it’s a principle to stand upon to live the “I CAN” in LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead as it’s written:
“I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ which strengtheneth me” Philippians 4:13.
BE BLESSED – BE EMPOWERED TO SUCCEED.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“For the GRACE of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It TEACHES us to say ‘NO’ to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. . . “ Titus 2:11-15 (NIV).
“But unto every one of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7.
“For I say, through the GRACE GIVEN unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man THE MEASURE of FAITH” Romans 12:3
“I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ which strengtheneth me” Philippians 4:13.
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into THIS GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.
