THE HOLY SPIRIT OF LOVE: IS THE ANSWER OF GOD’S LOVED-WORLD TO THE SPHERE AND QUESTIONS OF AN EVIL-WICKED-AND-HATED-WORLD TODAY! 

“And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another HELPER (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), to be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of Truth, whom the WORLD cannot receive [and take to its heart] because it does not SEE Him or KNOW Him, but you KNOW Him because He (the Holy Spirit) remains WITH you continually and will be IN you” John 14:16-17/AMP. 

Do you have QUESTIONS about the hate, evil, wickedness, murder, violence, and more in our world today? There is an ANSWER. The ANSWER is to ensure that, in the midst of the evil and wickedness in the world, God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus becomes our FUNDAMENTAL and PRINCIPLED guidance in every aspect of living godly and doing life. 

“Now hope does not disappoint, because the LOVE of God has been POURED out in our HEARTS by the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us . . . 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

And LIVING and WALKING by the Holy Spirit of love is the only EMPOWERING way to manifest and demonstrate the characteristics of God’s Love in Christ Jesus – that is how God’s LOVED WORLD answers the questions of an EVIL WORLD, WICKED WORLD, and a HATE WORLD questions. 

God’s love in Christ Jesus is characterised and summed up in 1 Corinthians 13. It is all possible by the working of the indwelling Spirit of love given to us – The Holy Spirit is shed and poured into our hearts – into the inner, subconscious spirit- man- to ensure that we triumph in all that pertains to doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Romans 5:5, 8; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 2 Peter 1:2-4. 

God’s kind of love is the only way to do life and to live through and above the knowledge of hate, selfishness, evil, wickedness and violence in the world that we see today. God’s love in Christ Jesus helps us to transcend and surpass the human-based kind love, which is of the SENSES – See, Smell, Feel, Taste and Hear. Ephesians 3:16-19. 

Living in God’s LOVED WORLD setting is the ANSWER to the REALITY and QUESTIONS of an EVIL WORLD, WICKED WORLD, and a HATE-FILLED WORLD.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT- 

“Now hope does not disappoint, because the LOVE of God has been POURED out in our HEARTS by the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us . . . 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

“Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who GAVE himself for our sins, that he might DELIVER us from this PRESENT EVIL WORLD, according to the WILL of God and our Father: 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Galatians 1:3-5. 

“For God so LOVED THE WORLD that he GAVE his one and only Son, that whoever BELIEVES in him shall not PERISH but have ETERNAL LIFE” John 3:16. 

“For this reason [grasping the greatness of this plan by which Jews and Gentiles are joined together in Christ] I bow my knees [in reverence] before the Father [of our Lord Jesus Christ], 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth [a]derives its name [God—the first and ultimate Father]. 16 May He grant you out of the riches of His glory, to be strengthened and spiritually energized with power through His Spirit in your inner self, [indwelling your innermost being and personality], 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your faith. And may you, having been [deeply] rooted and [securely] GROUNDED IN LOVE, 18 be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the width and length and height and depth of HIS LOVE [fully experiencing that amazing, endless love]; 19 and [that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] THE LOVE OF CHRIST which far SURPASSES [mere] knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself]. 20 Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us, 21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen” Ephesians 3:14-21 (Amplified).

SUMMARY: 

This message is a theological answer to the world’s crisis. The core argument: The only solution to hate, evil, and violence today is God’s love in Christ Jesus, demonstrated and empowered by the indwelling Holy Spirit. 

  1. THE FOUNDATION & THE HELPER

Core Truth: THE HOLY SPIRIT OF LOVE 
Key Verse: John 14:16-17 AMP 
Jesus promised the Holy Spirit — the Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Strengthener — to be WITH us and IN us forever. 
The world cannot receive Him because it does not see or know Him. But believers DO know Him. 

  1. THE PROBLEM: QUESTIONS FROM A BROKEN WORLD

The message asks: Do you have QUESTIONS about the hate, evil, wickedness, murder, violence, and more in our world today? 
It describes the world as: EVIL-WICKED-AND-HATE-FILLED. 
Galatians 1:3-5 calls it “this PRESENT EVIL WORLD” from which Christ came to DELIVER us. 

  1. THE ANSWER: GOD’S LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS

The ANSWER is to make God’s LOVE in Christ Jesus our FUNDAMENTAL and PRINCIPLED guidance for living godly and doing life. 
Why? Romans 5:5, 8 – God’s LOVE has been POURED into our HEARTS by the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us. God proved His love by Christ dying for us while we were yet sinners. 
How? John 3:16 – For God so LOVED THE WORLD that He GAVE His Son. 

  1. THE EMPOWERMENT: LIVING & WALKING BY THE SPIRIT

Living and Walking by the Holy Spirit of love is the only EMPOWERING way to manifest the characteristics of God’s Love. 
Where does it happen? The Holy Spirit is shed and poured into our hearts — into our inner, subconscious spirit-man — Romans 5:5. 
Result: We triumph in all that pertains to LIFE and GODLY LIVING. 2 Cor 2:14, 2 Peter 1:2-4 

  1. THE DESCRIPTION: WHAT GOD’S LOVE LOOKS LIKE

God’s love in Christ Jesus is characterised and summed up in 1 Corinthians 13. 
This love transcends and surpasses human-based love, which is limited to the 5 SENSES: See, Smell, Feel, Taste, and Hear. 
Ephesians 3:16-19 AMP explains: We are to be rooted and grounded IN LOVE, strengthened by the Spirit in our inner being, to know the LOVE OF CHRIST which surpasses knowledge, and be filled up to all the fullness of God.

Living in God’s LOVED WORLD setting is the ANSWER to the REALITY and QUESTIONS of an EVIL WORLD, WICKED WORLD, and HATE-FILLED WORLD. 
God’s kind of love is the only way to live through and above hate, selfishness, evil, wickedness, and violence. 

  1. SELAH – SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS TO PONDER
    Romans 5:5, 8 – God’s love poured out; Christ died for sinners. 
    Galatians 1:3-5 – Christ gave Himself to deliver us from this present evil world. 
    John 3:16 – The motive of the Gospel: God’s love for the world.

MIRRORING YOUR WELLBEING BY GOD’S LOVE 

By Leave a Comment

MIRRORING YOUR WELLBEING BY GOD’S LOVE: LOVING THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD IN THE EYES OF CHRIST JESUS! 

“And [that you may come] to KNOW [practically, through personal experience] the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS [mere] SENSE knowledge [without experience], that you may be FILLED up [throughout your being] to all the FULLNESS of God [so that you may have the RICHEST experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely FILLED and FLOODED with God Himself]” Ephesians 3:19/AMP. 

Mirroring God’s LOVE in our lives should be every believer’s earnest desire and expectation as we live in grace – in our day-to-day endeavours and in our walk with God in Christ Jesus’ stead. The questions that come to mind are: 

  1.  How have you been applying it in your day to day living thus far?  
  2. How will you start to do it now?  
  3. How do you go about doing it in order to sustain it, with an onward and upward trajectory that does not stop?  

Will it be through the lens of your DENOMINATIONAL and DOCTRINAL Church, sectarian by-laws and creeds?  

Or through the World’s definition?  

Or will you choose to DO life through the EYES and FACE of Christ Jesus, in the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of God as revealed in the Holy Scriptures? 

“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” is the One who has SHONE in our hearts to give us the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of the glory and majesty of God [clearly revealed] in the FACE of Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6 Amplified. 

LOVING through KNOWLEDGE, in the EYES and FACE of JESUS, by the Holy Spirit that is GIVEN to us, is the essence of FULFILING scripture and being FULFILED in God, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 8 But God COMMENDETH his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET sinners, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5-8. 

If you mirror your life through the eyes of DENOMINATIONAL and DOCTRINAL Church by-laws and creeds, or through the WORLD’S definition as seen today, I tell you this truthfully: You will be stigmatised, locked in dogmas and creeds, and become self-centred. More so, you will end up full of RELIGION-MADE, SECTARIANISM, SELF-MADE and MAN-MADE practices – with their bondages and captivity.  

They may seem good in human eyes, but they are full of sentiment, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) in every perception and life dealing.  

Worst of all, it is not healthy and gracious for godly living before the God of LOVE, in the knowledge of Christ Jesus’ stead as SCRIPTURALLY enjoined. Amen. 

“And [that you may come] to KNOW [practically, through personal experience] the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS [mere] SENSE knowledge [without experience], that you may be FILLED up [throughout your being] to all the FULLNESS of God [so that you may have the RICHEST experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely FILLED and FLOODED with God Himself]” Ephesians 3:19/AMP. 

For when you mirror God’s love from and through the saving, gracious KNOWLEDGE of Christ Jesus – in His EYES and on His FACE – in order to do life and live godly, I can verily promise you this:  

You will be LIBERATED from all forms of bondage and captivity. You will eventually experience WHOLEHEARTED WHOLENESS in your triune being: spirit, soul and body. And God’s love in Christ Jesus will take hold of you in every way, to do life and live FULFILING scripture – BLESSEDLY, MEANINGFULLY, and PURPOSEFULLY. Amen. 

“Love is to be sincere and active [the real thing—without guile and hypocrisy]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another with [authentic] brotherly affection [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor; 11 never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord; 12 constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength], 13 contributing to the needs of God’s people, pursuing [the practice of] hospitality . . .” Romans 12:9-21 Amplified. 

Genuine freedom is seeing God’s love through the EYES of Christ Jesus – if you dare to desire to truly live free in GRACE and in God’s KNOWLEDGE: wholesomely, purposefully, and meaningfully. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Beloved, let us LOVE one another, for LOVE is of God; and everyone who LOVES is born of God and knows God. 8 He who DOES NOT LOVE does not know God, for GOD IS LOVE. 9 In this the LOVE of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON into the world, that we might LIVE THROUGH HIM. 10 In this is LOVE, not that we LOVED God, but that He LOVED us and sent His Son to be the PROPITIATION for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so LOVED us, we also ought to LOVE one another” 1 John 4:7-11. 

“And the very God of peace SANCTIFY you WHOLLY; and I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be PRESERVED blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23. 

“Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having LOVED his own which were in the world, he LOVED THEM UNTO THE END . . . 34 A NEW COMMANDMENT I give unto you, That ye LOVE one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:1, 34-35. 

“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 LOOKING UNTO JESUS THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF OUR FAITH; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God” Hebrews 12:1-2. 

“God, who at SUNDRY TIMES and in DIVERS MANNERS SPAKE IN TIME PAST unto the fathers by the PROPHETS, 2 hath in these LAST DAYS SPOKEN UNTO US BY HIS SON, whom he hath APPOINTED heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 who being the brightness of his glory, and the EXPRESS image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; 4 being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they” Hebrews 1:1-4. 

“. . . 16 May He grant you out of the riches of His glory, to be strengthened and spiritually energized with power through His Spirit in your inner self, [indwelling your innermost being and personality], 17 so that Christ may DWELL in your hearts through your faith. And may you, having been [deeply] ROOTED and [securely] GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the width and length and height and depth of His LOVE [fully experiencing that amazing, endless love]; 19 and [that you may come] to KNOW [practically, through personal experience] the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS [mere] SENSE knowledge [without experience], that you may be FILLED up [throughout your being] to all the FULLNESS of God [so that you may have the RICHEST experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely FILLED and FLOODED with God Himself]” Ephesians 3:14-19 Amplified. 

SUMMARY: 

This is a theological charge + devotional call centred on one truth: To live free, whole, and godly, believers must mirror God’s love through the EYES and FACE of Christ Jesus, not through religion, denominations, or the world. 

KEY POINTS 

  1. THE CENTRAL THEME & SCRIPTURE FOUNDATION

Theme: MIRRORING YOUR WELLBEING BY GOD’S LOVE 
Core Verse: Ephesians 3:19 AMP 
“…to KNOW practically, through personal experience, the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES knowledge, that you may be FILLED up…to all the FULLNESS of God.” 
The goal is experiential knowledge of God’s love that leads to being FILLED and FLOODED with God Himself. 

Supporting verse: 2 Corinthians 4:6 AMP – God has shone the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of His glory in the FACE of Christ. 

  1. THE QUESTION & THE 3 OPTIONS FOR LIVING

The message poses 3 reflective questions about daily application, consistency, and sustainability. 
Then it gives 3 paths to choose from: 

  • DENOMINATIONAL & DOCTRINAL Church – by-laws, creeds, sectarianism 
  • THE WORLD’S definition – human standards 
  • THE EYES AND FACE OF CHRIST JESUS – in the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of God from Holy Scriptures ← The only correct path 
  1. THE WARNING: LIFE OUTSIDE CHRIST’S EYES

If you choose Option 1 or 2: 

  • You will be stigmatised, locked in dogmas, and self-centred 
  • You will become RELIGION-MADE, SECTARIAN, SELF-MADE, MAN-MADE 
  • Result: Bondage, captivity, sentiment, prejudice, and hypocrisy 
  • It is not healthy or gracious for godly living before the God of LOVE. Romans 5:5-8 
  1. THE PROMISE: LIFE THROUGH CHRIST’S EYES

When you mirror God’s love through the saving, gracious KNOWLEDGE in Christ Jesus: 

  • You will be LIBERATED from all bondage and captivity 
  • You will experience WHOLEHEARTED WHOLENESS in your triune being: spirit, soul, and body 1 Thess 5:23 
  • God’s love will lead you to live FULFILLING Scripture — BLESSEDLY, MEANINGFULLY, and PURPOSEFULLY 
  • LOVING through KNOWLEDGE by the Holy Spirit is the essence of fulfilling Scripture and being fulfilled in God. 
  1. WHAT THIS LOVE LOOKS LIKE PRACTICALLY

From Romans 12:9-21 AMP: 
Sincere love, no hypocrisy. Hate evil, hold to good. Brotherly affection, honor, diligence, rejoicing in hope, steadfast in distress, devotion to prayer, generosity, hospitality. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS TO PONDER – SELAH
1 John 4:7-11 – God IS LOVE. We love because He first loved us and sent His Son. 

John 13:34-35 – The NEW COMMANDMENT: Love one another as Christ loved us. This is how the world knows we are His disciples. 

Hebrews 12:1-2 – LOOKING UNTO JESUS, the Author and Finisher of our faith. 

Hebrews 1:1-4 – In these last days God has SPOKEN TO US BY HIS SON, the EXPRESS image of His person. 

Ephesians 3:14-19 – Rooted and grounded in LOVE, to comprehend the width, length, height, depth of God’s love.

THE FINAL DECLARATION

Genuine freedom is seeing God’s love through the EYES of Christ Jesus — if you dare to desire to truly live free in GRACE and in God’s KNOWLEDGE: wholesomely, purposefully, and meaningfully. 

In One Sentence: 

The message calls every believer to reject religion and worldliness, and to instead mirror God’s love by seeing life through Christ Jesus — because only that path brings liberation, wholeness, fulfillment, and the fullness of God’s presence.

THE TOTAL [COMPLETE, WHOLE] GOSPEL   

By Leave a Comment

THE TOTAL [COMPLETE, WHOLE] GOSPEL: IT’S FOR THE TOTAL [COMPLETE, WHOLE] MAN – SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY! 

“And the very God of peace SANCTIFY you WHOLLY; and I pray God your WHOLE SPIRIT and SOUL and BODY be PRESERVED blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5 :23. 

Being whole and desiring a wholesome living and wholesome being is not magical or farfetched, as some may think or imagine. Being sound in life and grace is not in a distant place far off from you – it’s within your grasp. 

 It’s what the Gospel “IS” – and will “DO” when PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED. And the TOTAL (Complete, whole) GOSPEL for TOTAL (Complete, Whole) MAN indicates, but not limited to:  

  • Sin forgiveness, which entails – Spiritual Emancipation of the deadened and depraved human spirit; 
  • Sound mind, which entails – Soul transformation by the WORD; and 
  • Bodily Healing which entails – Divine Health Restoration. 

DO YOU BELIEVE THIS GOSPEL STATEMENT AS SAID? 

“The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus BEGAN both to DO and TEACH, 2 until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given COMMANDMENTS unto the apostles whom he had chosen” Acts 1:1-2. 

Know this truth – MAN (a non-gender in term) is a triune being, meaning MAN is a spirit-being. Has a SOUL (with will, mind, reasoning, and emotion) and lives in a BODY (tripartite, clay, humus, sand, dust). The MAN in the HUMAN (HU-MAN) – that is, the MAN in the BODY (humus: clay, sand, dust) is a spirit-being. 

 Otherwise, the body (humus – clay, sand, dust) that we spend so much money to maintain as though it were so important, is nothing apart from the man that dwells in it. outside the MAN that dwells therein, hence at death, the BODY (humus – clay, sand, dust) that we spend so much money to maintain as though it were so important, is nothing apart from the man that dwells in it. [Genesis 2:7; Genesis 3:17-19] Hence at death, the BODY (humus: clay, sand, dust) is returned to the ground and left to decay and degrade into the ground from which it was made from creator God with the soul consciousness [Genesis 1:26-28; Genesis 2:7; Revelation 4:11; Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 8:4-6]; and knowing full well, that while man was made by God, He breathed life into the hu-man in order to become a living soul-being [Genesis 2:7; Job 32:8; Job 33:4]. 

“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and BREATHED into his nostrils the BREATH of life; and man became a LIVING soul” Genesis 2:7. 

“But there is a spirit in man: and the INSPIRATION of the Almighty GIVETH them understanding” Job 32:8. 

“The Spirit of God hath made me, and the BREATH of the Almighty hath GIVEN me life” Job 33:4. 

And it is by the WORD – who is the person of Christ Jesus (Hebrews 4 :12-13; John 1:1-5; 1 John 5:7), who is the GOSPEL Himself, that when PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED, the total (complete, whole) man can be liberated by the pure, true, and wholesome GOSPEL. 

“And he said unto them, GO ye into all the world, and PREACH THE GOSPEL to every creature . . . 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 everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming THE WORD with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:15-20. 

And by the blessed Holy Spirit that is given to us and that dwells in us [Romans 5:5; John 14:15-17], working in conjunction with THE WORD, He helps to energise and synergies us, ensuring that our mortal body is quickened – being kept alive daily -as we minister the Gospel to it accordingly. 

“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead DWELL in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also QUICKEN your MORTAL BODIES by his Spirit that DWELLETH in you” Romans 8:11. 

Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, though He is the Gospel, equally PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED the Gospel according to the Scriptures [Matthew 9:35; Luke 8:1-3]. And in His humanity, He also experienced the TOTAL (complete, whole) GOSPEL effect in His earthly life. [Luke 2:52; 1 Timothy 3:16]. This thus indicates that the GOSPEL is life and life-giving to all who will give attention to hear and receive it graciously and gracefully, when it is PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED accordingly. 

“And Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM (MENTAL) and STATURE (PHYSIQUE), and in FAVOUR with God (SPIRITUAL) and man (SOCIAL)” Luke 2 :52 Emphasis Mine. 

“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was MANIFEST in the FLESH, JUSTIFIED in the Spirit, seen of angels, PREACHED unto the Gentiles, BELIEVED on in the world, RECEIVED up into glory” 1 Timothy 3:16. 

“How then shall they call on him in whom they have not BELIEVED? and how shall they BELIEVE in him of whom they have not HEARD? and how shall they HEAR without a PREACHER? 15 and how shall they PREACH, except they be sent? as it is written, How BEAUTIFUL are the feet of them that PREACH THE GOSPEL OF PEACE, and bring glad tidings of good things! 16 But they have not all OBEYED THE GOSPEL. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17 So then faith cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:14-17. 

It’s my earnest prayer today and right now, that you experience the fulness of the TOTAL GOSPEL for your total wellbeing as you have this opportunity to read this GOSPEL message for your TOTAL (complete, whole) BEING. Give your hearing ears to hear only the TOTAL GOSPEL that emancipates and results in your complete wholeness – and nothing else that is contrary to your total wellbeing in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“And the very God of peace sanctify you WHOLLY; and I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be PRESERVED blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5 :23. 

“For THE WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of SOUL and SPIRIT, and of the JOINTS and MARROW, and is a discerner of the THOUGHTS and INTENTS of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13. 

Take time to ponder over the GOSPEL SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS below for your perusal, and you can ascertain your wholeness experience as PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERD by our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ in His humanity and by others – and as is presently possible by His WORD today. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: 21 for she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be WHOLE. 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath MADE thee WHOLE. And the woman was made WHOLE from that hour” Matthew 9:20-22 (Matthew 14:34-36; Matthew 15:27-28). 

“And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimæus, the son of Timæus, sat by the highway side begging . . . 51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight. 52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath MADE thee WHOLE. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way” Mark 10:46, 51-52 (46-52); Mark 6:53-56 

“. . . 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 and fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath MADE thee WHOLE” Luke 17:15-19 (11-19); (Luke 8: 46-56). 

“. . . 9 And immediately the man was MADE WHOLE, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath . . . 14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: SIN NO MORE, lest a worse thing come unto thee. 15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had MADE him WHOLE” John 5:9, 14-15 (1-15) (John 7:23). 

“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto salvation to every one that BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17. 

“. . . 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24. 

“And this GOSPEL of the kingdom shall be PREACHED in all the world for a WITNESS unto all nations; and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:14. 

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and TEACH all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 TEACHING them to observe all things whatsoever I have COMMANDED you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” Matthew 28:18-20. 

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 by which also YE ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES; 4 and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES . . . 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye believed” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. 

SUMMARY 

This message is a declaration and teaching on THE TOTAL [COMPLETE][WHOLE] GOSPEL FOR THE TOTAL [COMPLETE][WHOLE] MAN — SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY. 

  1. THE FOUNDATION: MAN IS TRIUNE

Man is not just body. Man is a spirit-being, has a SOUL, and lives in a BODY Genesis 2:7; Job 32:8; Job 33:4. 
The body [humus/clay/dust] returns to the ground at death, but the MAN — the spirit-being with soul consciousness — returns to God Genesis 1:26-28; Revelation 4:11. 
Because of this, God’s plan for us is wholeness in all 3: “your WHOLE SPIRIT and SOUL and BODY be PRESERVED blameless” 1 Thessalonians 5:23. 

  1. WHAT THE TOTAL GOSPEL COVERS

The TOTAL GOSPEL is for the TOTAL MAN. It is not farfetched or magical. It is what the Gospel IS and what it DOES when PREACHED, TAUGHT and MINISTERED. 
It includes: 

  • Sin Forgiveness → Spiritual Emancipation of the deadened human spirit 
  • Sound Mind → Soul Transformation by THE WORD 
  • Bodily Healing → Divine Health Restoration 

Jesus Himself is the Gospel. He BEGAN both to DO and TEACH Acts 1:1-2 and He experienced the TOTAL GOSPEL in humanity: “Jesus INCREASED in WISDOM [MENTAL], STATURE [PHYSIQUE], and in FAVOUR with God [SPIRITUAL] and man [SOCIAL]” Luke 2:52. 

  1. HOW WE RECEIVE WHOLENESS: WORD + SPIRIT

Wholeness comes by THE WORD, who is Christ Jesus John 1:1; Hebrews 4:12-13. 
The Gospel must be PREACHED so we can HEAR, BELIEVE, and CALL Romans 10:14-17. 
The Holy Spirit who DWELLS in us Romans 5:5; John 14:16-17 works with the Word to QUICKEN our MORTAL BODIES Romans 8:11 — keeping us energised and alive daily. 

  1. BIBLICAL EVIDENCE: “THY FAITH HATH MADE THEE WHOLE”

The message cites multiple examples of Jesus making people WHOLE — spirit, soul and body: 

  • Woman with issue of blood Matthew 9:20-22 
  • Blind Bartimaeus Mark 10:46-52 
  • The 10 lepers Luke 17:15-19 
  • Man at Bethesda John 5:1-15 — “Behold, thou art made whole: SIN NO MORE” 

These show the Gospel restores and also instructs. 

  1. THE POWER AND MANDATE OF THE GOSPEL
  • Romans 1:16-17: “THE GOSPEL… is THE POWER of God unto salvation” 
  • 1 Corinthians 1:24: Christ is THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God 
  • 1 Corinthians 15:1-4: The core Gospel — Christ died, was buried, and rose again ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES — “by which also YE ARE SAVED” 
  • Matthew 24:14; Matthew 28:18-20: The mandate to PREACH and TEACH the Gospel to all nations until the end. 

CALL TO ACTION 

  1. RECEIVE IT NOW: Give your hearing ears toONLY the TOTAL GOSPELtoday. Believe it, receive it graciously and gracefully, and let it work in your spirit, soul and body for your total wellbeing in Christ Jesus’ stead.
  2. PONDER & PROCLAIM IT: Take time to study the Scriptures shared here. Let the Word judge your thoughts and intents Hebrews 4:12-13, and go PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER this TOTAL GOSPEL to others. 
  3. WALK IN IT DAILY: Yield to the Holy Spirit who dwells in you. Allow Him to QUICKEN your mortal body Romans 8:11 as you minister the Gospel to yourself daily. 

My earnest prayer: That you experience the fulness of the TOTAL GOSPEL for your TOTAL WELLBEING right now. Amen.

LET’S KILL THAT SELFISHNESS TODAY WITH UNSPEAKABLE JOY 

By Leave a Comment

LET’S KILL THAT SIELFISHNESS TODAY WITH UNSPEAKABLE JOY: LET’S MAKE THE SPIRIT OF GIVING – RULE THE DAY IN OUR WORLDS FOR OTHERS JOY! 

“Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: 7 that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8 whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with JOY UNSPEAKABLE and full of glory: 9 receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls” 1 Peter 1:6-9. 

I know sometimes it’s difficult to be out there for someone else when you are going through some personal challenges that are overwhelming too. 

But I have come to know and understand by God in Christ Jesus, that an exceeding great JOY — the unspeakable, indescribable, and immeasurable joy — is experienced in the loving act of GIVING FIRST to others, before our trinity self which I call — I, Me, and Myself, otherwise ascribed sometimes as the me, me, and me. 

For it takes the desire to extend that unspeakable joy to others to kill the spirit of selfishness and self-centred lifestyle. 

Living a selfless life toward God and man in Christ Jesus’ stead is the only way to bear along others’ burdens by the incredible opportunity that we may have that others don’t have. 

Life is about sharing the good and goodness with others who are vulnerable and limited in life resources — with our abundance, or even the so-called little we have, as the biblical widow’s mite, we’ve all heard or read about. 

“I have shewed you all things, HOW THAT SO LABOURING YE OUGHT TO SUPPORT THE WEAK, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE” Acts 20:35. 

“And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were RICH cast in much. 42 And there came a certain POOR widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. 43 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this POOR WIDOW hath cast MORE in, than all they which have cast into the treasury: 44 for all they did cast in of their ABUNDANCE; but she of her WANT did cast in all that she had, even all her living” Mark 12:41-44 [Luke 21:1-4]. 

The word JOY to me means J for JESUS — as the first, O for OTHERS as the next, and Y for YOURSELF as the last. 

And I’ve found JOY indescribable and absolutely thrilling ever since I have learnt this act in my doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus’ stead through the years. 

And I highly recommend its application to you without prejudice, sentiments, and dissimulation, and it’s irrespective of whoever and whatever. 

For the act of love and loving is embedded in the spirit of GIVING to others first. Hence, God so loved that He GAVE first and the best — not leftovers and rejects. 

That’s how to kill the selfishness and selfish spirit in you and about you, in order to make love purposeful, meaningful, and fulfilling. 

“For God so LOVED the WORLD that He GAVE His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” John 3:16. 

Therefore, TODAY, while and when it is called TODAY, think about what GOOD and GOODNESS that is in you in terms of – TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL – that you can GIVE to make a huge and great difference in someone else’s life without complaining and murmuring. That’s what love and loving is all about – in giving to someone else first, before the you-self trinity within. Endeavour to give it a go today and even now. 

As said earlier, the fulness of JOY can be attributed as pleasing JESUS and OTHERS, then YOURSELF. Meaning preferring in this order as said FIRST [J] – Jesus and Second [O] – Others and before You [Y] – Yourself. 

The exceeding great JOY of God is of the heart, born in the human spirit of love and loving. Therefore, put an end to SELFISHNESS – and start LOVING, start GIVING today and even now as an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth His LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

I do pray that you may experience the exceeding great and fulness of God’s joy today as you express your acts of love and loving in the GIVING-FIRST spirit today. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For God so LOVED the WORLD that He GAVE His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” John 3:16. 

“GIVE, and it shall be GIVEN unto you; GOOD MEASURE, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men GIVE into your bosom. For with the SAME MEASURE that ye mete withal it shall be MEASURED to you again” Luke 6:38. 

“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 

“When they saw the star, they REJOICED with EXCEEDING GREAT JOY” Matthew 2:10. 

“I have shewed you all things, HOW THAT SO LABOURING YE OUGHT TO SUPPORT THE WEAK, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE” Acts 20:35. 

“The DESIRE of the RIGHTEOUS is only GOOD: but the EXPECTATION of the WICKED is WRATH. 24 There is that SCATTERETH, and yet INCREASETH; and there is that WITHHOLDETH more than is meet, but it TENDETH to POVERTY. 25 The LIBERAL soul shall be MADE fat: and he that WATERETH shall be WATERED also himself” Proverbs 11:23-25. 

SUMMARY: 

The message tells us that Selfishness dies when we choose to GIVE first. The spirit of GIVING rules our world and births UNSPEAKABLE JOY — the kind of JOY that puts JESUS first, OTHERS next, YOURSELF last. Today is the day to stop complaining and start LOVING through giving. 
Acts 20:35 — “IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE” 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. JOY IS FOUND IN GIVING FIRST
    The exceedinggreat JOY — unspeakable, indescribable, and immeasurable — is experienced in the act of GIVING to others first, before the “I, Me, and Myself” trinity. 
    1 Peter 1:8 — We rejoice with JOY UNSPEAKABLE and full of glory even in trials, as our faith is tested. 
    Psalms 16:11 — In God’s presence is FULNESS OF JOY. 
  1. KILL SELFISHNESS WITH A GIVING SPIRIT
    It takes the desire to extend joy to others to kill the spirit of selfishness andself-centred lifestyle. 
    Living a selfless life toward God and man in Christ Jesus’ stead is how we bear others’ burdens. 
    God set the example: John 3:16 — “For God so LOVED the WORLD that He GAVE His only begotten Son” — He gave His best, not leftovers. 
  1. GIVE WHETHER ABUNDANCE OR “WIDOW’S MITE“
    Life is about sharing the good and goodness with the vulnerable and those limited in resources.
    Mark 12:41-44 — The poor widow gave more than the rich, because she gave out of her want — all she had. 
    Proverbs 11:24-25 — “There is that SCATTERETH, and yet INCREASETH… The LIBERAL soul shall be MADE fat.” 
    Luke 6:38 — “GIVE, and it shall be GIVEN unto you; GOOD MEASURE, pressed down, and shaken together…” 
  1. THE J-O-Y PRINCIPLE
    JOY = Jesus first, Others next, Yourself last.
    The fulness of JOY is attributed to pleasing JESUS and OTHERS, then YOURSELF. 
    This order makes love purposeful, meaningful, and fulfilling. 

CALL TO ACTION: 

  • Examine your “WHATEVER” — What can you give today? 
  • Reject Selfishness — Choose the “you-self trinity” last. 
  • Give First — Like God did. Like the widow did. 
  • Expect Joy — Unspeakable joy comes when you bless others first. 
  • Live J-O-Y — Jesus, Others, Yourself. 

Final Word: 

Let’s make the SPIRIT OF GIVING rule the day in our worlds for OTHERS’ JOY. When we kill selfishness with giving, we experience the exceeding great JOY of God. IT IS MORE BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE

GOD HEARS AND ANSWERS PRAYER

GOD HEARS AND ANSWERS PRAYER: AND PRAYER – IT’S MORE OF A FELLOWSHIP TO ENHANCE RELATIONSHIP – AND IT’S THE COMMUNION TO CHANGE YOUR WORLDS! 

“O thou that HEAREST PRAYER, unto thee shall ALL FLESH come” Psalms 65:2.

And PRAYER — It’s more a FELLOWSHIP — to enhance and influence our RELATIONSHIP with God.

It will TRANSFORM and TRANSFIGURE you for the good and goodness. 

Therefore, give it a GO in your life for your wellbeing and be BLESSED in the now. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Thus saith the Lord the maker thereof, the Lord that formed it, to establish it; the Lord is his name; 3 CALL unto me, and I will ANSWER thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not” Jeremiah 33:2-3. 

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to PRAY. 29 AND AS HE PRAYED, THE FASHION OF HIS COUNTENANCE WAS ALTERED (TRANSFORMED, TRANSFIGURED, DAZZLING), and his raiment was white and glistering . . .” Luke 9:28-36/Emphasis Mine. 

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 LET US THEREFORE COME BOLDLY UNTO THE THRONE OF GRACE, THAT WE MAY OBTAIN MERCY, AND FIND GRACE TO HELP IN TIME OF NEED” Hebrews 4:14-16. 

“Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The heartfelt and persistent PRAYER of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]. 17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours [with the same physical, mental, and spiritual limitations and shortcomings], and he PRAYED intensely for it not to rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. 18 Then he prayed again, and the sky gave rain and the land produced its crops [as usual]” James 5:16-18/AMP. 

SUMMARY: 

The message urges us to STOP COMPLAINING and START PRAYING. Prayer is not just asking — it is FELLOWSHIP and COMMUNION with God that ENHANCES RELATIONSHIP and CHANGES your world. God HEARS and ANSWERS prayer. Prayer TRANSFORMS you and TRANSFIGURES your circumstances.

    You don’t have to pile up your Mountain, Valley, Crooked Road, and Rough Places in pain. Bring them to God in prayer. 
  1. PRAYER IS FELLOWSHIP AND COMMUNION
    PRAYER — IT’S MORE A FELLOWSHIP to enhance and influence our RELATIONSHIP with God.
    It’s the COMMUNION that changes our WORLD’S unpleasant circumstances and situations. 
    Prayer is how we do LIFE and GODLINESS in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus’ stead. 
    Prayer bridges the gap. It’s not religion — it’s relationship. 
  1. PRAYER CHANGES YOU AND CHANGES THINGS
    PRAYER — CHANGES YOU and CHANGES THINGS that are about you.
    Luke 9:28-29 — “AND AS HE PRAYED, THE FASHION OF HIS COUNTENANCE WAS ALTERED [TRANSFORMED, TRANSFIGURED, DAZZLING].” 
    When you pray, you are TRANSFORMED and TRANSFIGURED for the good and goodness. 
    James 5:16-18 — The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man is dynamic and has tremendous power. Elijah prayed and it stopped raining. He prayed again and the rain came.

    Stop complaining and procrastinating over your WHATEVER.
    You can change the unpleasant atmosphere of your world by PRAYER in grace.

THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN: WORKING INSIDE OUT IN THE GRACE! 

By Leave a Comment

THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN: WORKING INSIDE OUT IN THE GRACE! 

“For we [who ARE born-again have been reborn from above—spiritually TRANSFORMED, RENEWED, SET APART for His PURPOSE and] ARE the TRUE CIRCUMCISION, who WORSHIP IN the Spirit of God and glory and take pride and exult IN Christ Jesus and place no confidence [in what we HAVE or who we ARE] IN the flesh” Philippians 3:3/AMP. 

It is the SYNERGY within that ENERGISES and makes all the DIFFERENCE. It is all about these: 

  • The grace within 
  • The faith within 
  • The word within 
  • The love within 
  • The power within 
  • And the Holy Spirit Working It out from within. 

FOR WE: 

  • Are Saved and grow by GRACE 
  • Are to live and triumph by FAITH 
  • Are Sustained and upheld by the WORD  
  • Are Influenced and propelled by LOVE  
  • Are Empowered by the HOLY SPIRIT – enabling us to thrive, and fulfil purpose meaningfully, in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

For we ARE the New creation JEW of the heart [the spirit] and INWARDLY we ARE – Spirited, Hearted, Reborn, Recreated, Circumcised, Called, Justified, Predestined, Foreknown, Chosen, Accepted, Blessed, Made, Qualified, Glorified, Purposed, Sanctified, Renewed, Transformed, Delivered, Translated, Forgiven and more . . . in Christ Jesus.  

“For he is not a Jew, which is one OUTWARDLY; neither is that circumcision, which is OUTWARD in the flesh: 29 but he is a Jew, which is one INWARDLY; and circumcision is that of the HEART, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God” Romans 2:28-29. 

“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. 

Therefore, be ENERGISED and let it be that THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN – WORKING from The INSIDE OUT. For the working within is about what God in Christ Jesus, has ACCOMPLISHED IN you by His grace, through faith in His Word, by the Holy Spirit.  

“That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of EVERY GOOD THING which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6. 

It is in knowing and living through what is within you that what God has done for you in Christ Jesus becomes meaningful and purposeful. What is wrought in you is what you can actualise, so that it becomes your reality. In this way, you ensure that what has been done for you – in grace, through faith, by the word, in love, energised by the power of the Holy Spirit of love given to us – is fulfilled. 

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad IN our HEARTS [INNERMOST BEING, SPIRIT-BEING] by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth His LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died FOR us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

It is my earnest prayer that what has been done in you, and is within you, will become your reality in doing life and living godly, by God’s blessedness in Christ Jesus. Amen.  

Be Blessed. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For WHATSOEVER is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the VICTORY that overcometh the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5. 

“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. 

“Giving thanks to the Father who has QUALIFIED us to be PARTAKERS of the INHERITANCE of the saints in the light. 13 He has DELIVERED us from the power of darkness and CONVEYED us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV. 

“Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. 3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath MADE us, and not we ourselves; we ARE his people, and the sheep of his pasture” Psalms 100:2-3. 

“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath SHINED in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the POWER may be of God, and not of us” 2 Corinthians 4:6-7. 

“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 . . . 5 And hope maketh not ASHAMED; because the love of God is SHED abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:1-2, 5, 8. 

“You ARE of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is IN you is GREATER than he who is IN the world. 5 They ARE of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. 6 We ARE of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6/NKJV. 

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the TRUE WORSHIPPERS shall WORSHIP the Father IN spirit and IN truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him MUST worship him IN spirit and IN truth” John 4:19-24. 

“Look at the proud one, His soul is not right within him, But the righteous will LIVE by his FAITH [in the true God]” Habakkuk 2:4/AMP [Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:16-17].  

SUMMARY 

This message is on THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN: WORKING INSIDE OUT IN THE GRACE — that the New Creation life in Christ Jesus is powered, sustained, and expressed from the inside out by what God has already wrought in you. 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. THE IDENTITY OF THE NEW CREATION
    Philippians 3:3; Romans 2:28-29
    We ARE the true circumcision — not outward in the flesh, but INWARDLY in the heart and spirit. 
    In Christ, you are Spirited, Reborn, Recreated, Justified, Predestined, Called, Sanctified, Glorified, Qualified, and more. Your identity is not defined by the flesh, but by what God has done IN you. 
  2. THE SYNERGY WITHIN: WHAT POWERS THE INSIDE-OUT LIFE
    The difference in the believer’s life is the synergy working from within:
  • The GRACE within — we are saved and grow by grace 
  • The FAITH within — we live and triumph by faith Habakkuk 2:4; 1 John 5:4-5 
  • The WORD within — we are sustained and upheld by the Word 
  • The LOVE within — we are influenced and propelled by the love of God shed in our hearts Romans 5:5 
  • The POWER within — we are empowered by the HOLY SPIRIT to thrive and fulfil purpose
    It is the Holy Spirit working it out from within that makes all the difference. 
  1. THE WORKING OF GOD IN US
    Romans 8:28-30 — Those who love God and are called according to His purpose are Foreknown, Predestined, Called, Justified, and Glorified.
    Colossians 1:12-14 — The Father has Qualified us, Delivered us, and Conveyed us into the Kingdom of His Son. 
    2 Corinthians 4:6-7 — God has shined in our hearts and placed His treasure — His power and glory — in earthen vessels. 
    Therefore, ALL THINGS work together for your good because of the working within. 
  2. FROM KNOWING TO ACTUALISING
    Philemon 1:6 — “That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of EVERY GOOD THING which is IN you IN Christ Jesus.”
    What God has accomplished in you only becomes your reality when you know it, acknowledge it, and live from it. What is wrought in you is what you can actualise. 
  3. TRUE WORSHIP AND TRUE LIVING
    John 4:23-24— True worshippers worship the Father IN spirit and IN truth. 
    This life is not about outward performance but about an inward reality expressed outwardly — grace, faith, love, and the Spirit working together. 

CALL TO ACTION: 

BE ENERGISED! 
Stop striving from the outside in. Begin living from the inside out. 

  • Acknowledge every good thing that is IN you in Christ Jesus. 
  • Live by the grace, faith, Word, love, and Spirit within you. 
  • Let the synergy within energise your purpose, worship, and daily life in God’s BLESSEDNESS.  

For the victory that overcomes the world is already IN you — it is your FAITH 1 John 5:4-5.

WELCOME TO MONTH SEVEN [7] – JULY 2026: THE MONTH OF “ASSURED HOPE” – TO GLORY IN CHRIST JESUS’ STEAD IN BLESSEDNESS! 

SHALOM and KINGDOM GREETINGS, Beloved of God, in the gracious and graceful NAME of our dear Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, in Father God. In Christ Jesus, I am SPIRITED to HEARTILY welcome you to the Month of JULY – the seventh month of the Gregorian and Julian Calendar, in the year of the Lord, in GRACE. And the Month of JULY 2026 is entitled: “ASSURED HOPE” IN CHRIST JESUS! This is about ensuring “The graciousness and blessedness of HOPE in Christ Jesus’ stead” to the Believers of God in doing life and living godly in the GRACE. 

The Month of JULY is the SEVENTH of the TWELVE months of the year in the JULIAN and GREGORIAN calendars, and the FOURTH of the seven months to have a length of 31 days. And SEVEN, in count, thus indicates and signifies the following: Completeness, Wholeness, Maturity, Fullness, Fulfilment, Fruitfulness, Meaningfulness, Purposefulness, Perfectness, and such like – in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

So, I sincerely WELCOME you to the Month of JULY 2026: The Month of “ASSURED HOPE!” – To enable us to GLORY In Christ Jesus’ stead in GRACIOUSNESS and BLESSEDNESS, as it is written: 

 “To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the GLORY of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY” Colossians 1:27/KJV. 

 “For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. 12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the BLESSED HOPE – the appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you” Titus 2:11-15/NIV. 

 It is my earnest, heartfelt prayer that at the point of receiving this July 2026 AFD Monthly TEACHING Publication writ, all things might have come under your feet and control, and that you are in charge of every circumstance that pertains to you – in doing life and living godly in the GRACE in Christ Jesus’ stead. And it is all my earnest prayer for you in the GRACE, that you may embrace HOPE from the scriptural points of reference and perception, thereby stirring up yourself to HOPE in God in Christ Jesus. And I know that this will enable you to do life and live godly in the GRACE effortlessly, and also without sweat or distress – thereby abounding in the empowerment of HOPE for your realities by the Holy Spirit of HOPE in the GRACE as it is written:  

 “May the God of HOPE fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the POWER of the Holy Spirit you will ABOUND IN HOPE and OVERFLOW with confidence in His promises” Romans 15:13/Amplified. 

 And I pray that in this Month of JULY, in the year of the Lord, you can lift up your head, shoulders high, and put on the HIGH HEELS OF FAITH that are substantiated by HOPE, as you go about enjoying serving and worshipping our God in Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit of Hope. And this will also enable you, through the WORD, to serve God in Christ Jesus acceptably, and to worship Him worthily in the same manner, in the GRACE – without distortion, adulteration, or counterfeits; and without sentiments, prejudice, or dissimulation. Moreover, the possibility in the GRACE of Christ Jesus’ stead is by abounding in the threshold of our service and worship in the GRACE, which are: The Patience of HOPE, the work of FAITH, and the labour of LOVE. And these bring ASSURED ASSURANCE in the GRACE that is beyond words and terms, and beyond human comprehension, it is as written: 

 “We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers, 3 Remembering without ceasing your work of FAITH, labour of LOVE, and patience of HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father, 4 knowing, beloved brethren, your election by God. 5 For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake” 1 Thessalonians 1:3-5. 

 And may the GRACIOUSNESS and BLESSEDNESS of our Father and GOD OF HOPE cause you to abound in HOPE and be hopeful in all your expectations, with the needed speed and ASSURANCE in Christ Jesus’ stead, in the GRACE. Amen. 

 I pray that as we explore the enabling of our God in the ASSURED HOPE in Christ Jesus, you will live to testify of the GLORY in the GRACE in Christ Jesus’ stead, in GRACIOUSNESS and BLESSEDNESS, as you do life and live godly. 

 Enjoy your Blessed ASSURED HOPE of month of July 2026. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Now faith is the assurance [substance] (title deed, confirmation) of things HOPED for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]” Hebrews 11:1/Amplified. 

 “May the God of HOPE fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will abound in HOPE and overflow with confidence in His promises” Romans 15:13/Amplified. 

 “God [in His eternal plan] chose to make known to them how great for the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in and among you, the HOPE and guarantee of [realizing the] glory” Colossians 1:27/Amplified. 

 “For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. 12 It teaches us to say “NO” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the BLESSED HOPE the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. 15 These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you” Titus 2:11-15/NIV. 

“And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love” 1 Corinthians 13:13/NKJV. 

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers, 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, LABOR OF LOVE, and PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father, 4 knowing, beloved brethren, your election by God. 5 For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-5.

DON’T BE AN ECHO 

By Leave a Comment

DON’T BE AN ECHO: BE THE VOICE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS – MAKING THE DIFFERENCE! 

“For the EYES of the Lord run TO and FRO throughout the whole earth, to SHEW himself STRONG in the behalf of them whose HEART is PERFECT toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore, from henceforth thou shalt have wars” 2 Chronicles 16:9. 

The Holy Scriptures in 2 Corinthians 5:19-21 declare that you are God’s righteousness in Christ Jesus and an ambassador for Christ; Meaning, you are God’s VESSEL OF CHANGE for right living on earth as His Embassy and Ambassador [2 Timothy 2:19-21; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21]. God uses vessels, not ornaments. God needs and uses available vessels to put His ability into – in order to make the needed DIFFERENCE in humanity in our world. God does not need vessels of self-ability that do not require His enabling for the good of others in His stead. Be wise to be that God’s VOICE – making the difference in humanity. 

“. . . 20 But in a great house there are not only VESSELS of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to HONOUR, and some to DISHONOUR . . .” 2 Timothy 2:19-21. 

Righteousness – the right to stand before God and on His behalf without fear, shame, or guilt because of what Christ has done – is wired and imbedded in the DNA of your being when you resolved to be a born-again child of God in Christ Jesus stead. [Romans 5:17-21]. 

It is this right of grace – to be not an echo, but a voice – that made John the Baptist the VESSEL of change to his generation. He dared to be the VOICE for righteousness in the wilderness, gathering people, and because he was of God’s righteousness, he gave the hope to live in God and through God to others of his time and generation, as it is written: 

“. . . The WORD of the Lord CAME to John the son of Zacharias in the WILDERNESS . . . THE VOICE of one CRYING [PREACHING] in the WILDERNESS, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight . . . Then SAID he to the MULTITUDE that CAME FORTH TO BE BAPTIZED OF HIM, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? BRING FORTH THEREFORE FRUITS WORTHY OF REPENTANCE, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire . . .” Luke 3:1-18. 

Dear Friend, let us silence the spirit of cowardice in our lives and in our generation, for we are God’s righteousness in Christ Jesus. Therefore, let us dare to be the VOICE for righteousness in our families, neighbourhoods, places of doing life, and in our positions of noble grace and opportunities. 

Endeavour to be APPROVED of God as His VOICE on earth, making the DIFFERENCE toward others by God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, rather than being an echo that lives on the HYPE and APPLAUD of men for self-gratification and ego. God seeks for vessels, and not ornaments – and your availability in Him, not your ability, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“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” Acts 2:22. 

“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. 

YOU ARE GOD’S EMBASSY AND AMBASSADOR – BE THE VOICE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS – MAKING THE DIFFERENCE IN HUMANITY IN OUR WORLD. 

BE BLESSED IN GOD’S GRACIOUSNESSS AND GRACEFULNESS. 

HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK.  

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Therefore if ANY man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: old things are passed away; behold, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW. 18 And all things ARE of God, who HATH reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath GIVEN to us the MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath COMMITTED UNTO US THE WORD OF RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath MADE him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. 

“Nevertheless the FOUNDATION of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. 20 But in a great house there are not only VESSELS of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a VESSEL unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and PREPARED UNTO EVERY GOOD WORK” 2 Timothy 2:19-21. 

“For if by the trespass of the one (Adam), death reigned through the one (Adam), much more surely will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of RIGHTEOUSNESS reign in [eternal] life through the One, Jesus Christ. 18 So then as through one trespass [Adam’s sin] there resulted condemnation for all men, even so through one act of RIGHTEOUSNESS there resulted justification of life to [a]all men. 19 For just as through one man’s disobedience [his failure to hear, his carelessness] the many were made sinners, so through the obedience of the one Man the many will be made righteous and acceptable to God and brought into right standing with Him. 20 But the Law came to increase and expand [the awareness of] the trespass [by defining and unmasking sin]. But where sin increased, [God’s remarkable, gracious gift of] grace [His unmerited favor] has surpassed it and increased all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, so also grace would reign through RIGHTEOUSNESS which brings eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21 Amplified. 

SUMMARY: 

This message is a Kingdom Charge and Apostolic Exhortation calling believers to reject cowardice, self-gratification, and men’s applause, and to arise as God’s APPROVED VOICE, VESSEL, and AMBASSADOR OF RIGHTEOUSNESS on earth. It teaches that RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ is the spiritual identity and authority that qualifies every born-again believer to MAKE THE DIFFERENCE in their generation by AVAILABILITY to God, not SELF-ABILITY. 

  1. Central Theme: From Echo to Voice, From Ornament to Vessel

The core mandate is: DON’T BE AN ECHO: BE THE VOICE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. 

  • 2 Chronicles 16:9: God is looking for hearts PERFECT toward Him to show Himself STRONG. 
  • 2 Corinthians 5:19-21: Believers are God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ and AMBASSADORS for Christ — His EMBASSY and VESSEL OF CHANGE on earth. 
  • 2 Timothy 2:20-21: God uses VESSELS OF HONOUR, not ORNAMENTS. He seeks AVAILABILITY, not ABILITY apart from Him. 

Key Truth: God does not need vessels of SELF-ABILITY or ECHOES that live for HYPE and APPLAUSE. He needs AVAILABLE VESSELS filled with His ABILITY to produce Kingdom DIFFERENCE. 

  1. The Foundation: Righteousness as Spiritual DNA

RIGHTEOUSNESS is defined as “the right to stand before God and on His behalf without fear, shame, or guilt because of what Christ has done.” 

  • It is WIRED and EMBEDDED in the DNA of every born-again believer [Romans 5:17-21]. 
  • Because of this, believers can DARE to be God’s VOICE without fear. 

John the Baptist Model [Luke 3:2-9]: He operated from this RIGHT OF GRACE — not an ECHO, but a VOICE in the wilderness. He called for REPENTANCE and FRUIT WORTHY, giving his generation hope to live IN GOD and THROUGH GOD. 

  1. The Call to Holiness and Courage
  • Silence the SPIRIT OF COWARDICE in personal life and in the generation. 
  • Be the VOICE FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS in families, neighbourhoods, workplaces, and every sphere of noble grace and opportunity. 
  • Endeavour to be APPROVED OF GOD [Acts 2:22; 2 Timothy 2:15] — proven by life, not by men’s approval — rather than being an ECHO of ego and self-gratification. 
  1. Scriptural Thoughts for Pondering
    The message anchors the charge in:
    2 Corinthians 5:17-21: We are a NEW CREATURE, reconciled by God, with the MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION committed to us as AMBASSADORS.
    2 Timothy 2:19-21: Purging produces a Vessel unto HONOUR, SANCTIFIED, PREPARED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK.
    Romans 5:17-21 AMP: Through Christ’s obedience, many are made RIGHTEOUS and brought into RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD. Where sin increased, GRACE reigns through RIGHTEOUSNESS. 
  1. Call to Action
    Decide Today: Refuse to be an ECHO. Choose to be God’s VOICE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS in your world. 
    Present Yourself as an AVAILABLE VESSEL: Yield your life to God’s ABILITY, not self-ability. Pursue AVAILABILITY, SANCTIFICATION, and HONOUR. 
    Live APPROVED OF GOD: STUDY, APPLY, and RIGHTLY DIVIDE the Word [2 Timothy 2:15]. Let your life display MIRACLES, WONDERS, and SIGNS of God’s approval [Acts 2:22]. 
    Arise in Every Sphere: Be the VOICE FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS at home, in your community, and in every position God has given you. 
    Walk in Blessedness: Receive and operate from God’s GRACIOUSNESS and GRACEFULNESS as His EMBASSY and AMBASSADOR. 

Summary Statement: 
Because you are MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ, you are NO LONGER AN ECHO. You are God’s VESSEL, VOICE, and AMBASSADOR — AVAILABLE, APPROVED, and SENT to MAKE THE DIFFERENCE in humanity. 

Benediction: BE BLESSED IN GOD’S GRACIOUSNESS AND GRACEFULNESS. HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK.

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER 

By Leave a Comment

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER: THE TOUGH IN FAITH WILL ALWAYS KEEP ON KEEPING ON – EVEN WHEN ALL THINGS COMES TO A HALT! 

“Dear brothers, is your life FULL OF DIFFICULTIES and TEMPTATIONS? Then be HAPPY, 3 for when the way is ROUGH, your PATIENCE has a chance to GROW. 4 So let it GROW, and don’t try to SQUIRM OUT of your problems. For when your PATIENCE is finally in FULL BLOOM, then you will be READY for anything, STRONG IN CHARACTER, FULL AND COMPLETE” James 1:2-4/Living Bible [TLB]. 

Sometimes doing life by the book and doing the right things as expected in all goodness, may seem unfair in some or many occasions. And when the expected results don’t come, the good decisions that one has made, or is to make, in order to accomplish the intended plans, purposes and pursuits can seem unfounded or elusive. I know the feeling and understand such circumstances. And if that’s your circumstances, God this:  God is good and faithful, true and sure to answer you in all MATTERS in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

More so, God is a good arranger, organiser, and is awesome in His goodness, to make all things – the easy and the challenging [difficult], the good and the bad times – work together for our good in His plan, purpose and pursuit, as we ponder over His WORD in our good and bad times, He ensures the effectual working of His assured WORD on our behalf in His grace in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] CAUSES ALL THINGS to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose” Romans 8:28/[Ephesians 1:10-11/Amplified]. 

“This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall read [and meditate on] it DAY and NIGHT, so that you may be careful to do [everything] in accordance with all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will be successful” Joshua 1:8/Amplified. 

However, no matter how unfair doing life and doing the right things may seem to you today, know full well that God will eventually meet you at the point of you need. FOR TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOREVER. And as long as you keep on keeping up in Faith, and as one with a trusting spirit in God’s faithfulness and to His promises, there is going to be an ANSWER. For being steadfast, diligent, and patient in the grace through faith, God will cause you to have access to our promised inheritance in Him. 

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS [UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL] to forget your WORK and LABOUR of love, which ye have SHEWED toward his name, in that ye have MINISTERED to the saints, and DO MINISTER. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the FULL ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be not SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12/Emphasis Mine. 

There is the need to know full well and be assured, that every challenge has an appointed time. That is to say, there is an end-game time and date set to it under the sun, no matter how long it lasts or stays. The Holy Writ indicates that – that the expectation of the one who keeps on keeping up to maintain a right standing with God in trial times will not be cut off, as written: 

“For SURELY there is an END; and thine EXPECTATION shall not be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:8. 

When you ARE assured and insured as the Patriarch Abraham in God’s faithfulness to His promises, there will be hope against hope, and your tough times will never last forever; more so, God’s divine intervention will cause all things to work together for your good, your happiness, and peace. So did God with His promise to Abraham. All things eventually came together for a perfect, complete and whole answer to all expectations of God.  

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” Romans 8:28. 

“. . . I have made you a FATHER OF MANY NATIONS, BEFORE WHOM HE BELIEVED, even God . . . Who (Abraham) AGAINST HOPE BELIEVED IN HOPE, that he might be a father of many nations . . . being FULLY PERSUADED that, what He (God) had promised, He was ABLE also to PERFORM . . .” Romans 4:17-25. 

So today, no matter how much you’ve fought to do the right things, and the journey seems long, or longer, you need to keep on keeping up in faith. For faith is the VICTORY that overcomes all trials of your journey in order to thrive and be more than conquerors over the world system of doing life that has stood in your path of progress and success. Faith, which is the corresponding action on what you believe of God’s WORD, will surely locate you with your expectations, as it is written: 

“For WHATSOEVER is BORN of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5. 

THERE MAY BE TOUGH TIMES – BUT TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER. THE TOUGH IN FAITH WILL ALWAYS KEEP ON KEEPING ON, EVEN WHEN ALL THINGS COMES TO A HALT. 

I pray that our good and faithful, true and sure God, will keep you in grace and strengthen you courageously and keep you keeping on in faith, in Christ Jesus stead – until your BLESSEDNESS in Him is actualised meaningfully and purposefully. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. 3 Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing . . . 12 Blessed [happy, spiritually prosperous, favored by God] is the man who is steadfast under trial and perseveres when tempted; for when he has passed the test and been approved, he will receive the [victor’s] crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God” [for temptation does not originate from God, but from our own flaws]; for God cannot be tempted by [what is] evil, and He Himself tempts no one. 14 But each one is tempted when he is dragged away, enticed and baited [to commit sin] by his own [worldly] desire (lust, passion)” James 1:2-4, 12-14. (Amplified). 

“Therefore let the one who thinks he stands firm [immune to temptation, being overconfident and self-righteous], take care that he does not fall [into sin and condemnation]. 13 No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance]; but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist], but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy]” 1 Corinthians 10:12-3. Amplified. 

“CASTING ALL YOUR CARE upon him; for he CARETH for you. 8 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 5:7-11. 

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS (UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL) to forget your WORK and LABOUR of love, which ye have SHEWED toward his name, in that ye have MINISTERED to the saints, and DO MINISTER. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the FULL ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be not SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12/Emphasis Mine. 

“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. 

SUMMARY: 

This is a doctrinal-exhortation and pastoral decree built on one central thesis: Endurance through FAITH, PATIENCE, and OBEDIENCE is the only pathway to VICTORY, INHERITANCE, and BLESSEDNESS when life feels unfair or prolonged. 

Here are the 7 core pillars of the message:  

  1. THE FOUNDATIONAL DECREE:TOUGH TIMES HAVE AN END 
    TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOREVER. Every CHALLENGE has an appointed END-GAME time and date under the sun [Proverbs 23:18].
    James 1:2-4: DIFFICULTIES and TEMPTATIONS are designed to produce PATIENCE that matures into being COMPLETE and LACKING NOTHING. The TOUGH IN FAITH are those who KEEP ON KEEPING ON even when all things COME TO A HALT. 
  1. THE CHARACTER OF GOD IN DELAY: THE GOOD ARRANGER
    God is GOOD, FAITHFUL, TRUE, and SURE [Romans 8:28; Joshua 1:8]. He is the GOOD ARRANGER and ORGANISER who causes ALL THINGS — EASY AND CHALLENGING, GOOD AND BAD TIMES — TO WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD for those who love Him and are called according to His PURPOSE.
    Implication: Unfair seasons and “unfounded” decisions are not wasted when one abides in His WORD DAY AND NIGHT. 
  1. THE REQUIRED POSTURE: FAITH + PATIENCE + DILIGENCE
    VICTORY is accessed, not by flesh or haste, but by a 3-fold posture: 
    FAITH: FAITH IS THE VICTORY that overcomes the world system [1 John 5:4-5]. It is the corresponding action to what you believe of God’s WORD. 
    PATIENCE: PATIENCE OF HOPE is required to avoid becoming like Saul — acting outside God’s timing [Hebrews 6:12]. 
    DILIGENCE: God is not UNRIGHTEOUS to forget your WORK and LABOUR of love [Hebrews 6:10-12]. STEADFASTNESS secures access to your PROMISED INHERITANCE. 

  2. THE ABRAHAMIC PATTERN: HOPE AGAINST HOPE
    Believers are to be ASSURED and INSURED like Patriarch Abraham [Romans 4:17-21].
    CONTRARY TO HOPE, IN HOPE BELIEVED — being FULLY CONVINCED that God is ABLE TO PERFORM what He promised.
    Result: All things eventually come together for a perfect, complete ANSWER to God’s expectations. 
  1. THE IDENTITY & REWARD: MORE THAN CONQUERORS
    Through FAITH, believers are MORE THAN CONQUERORS over the world system that blocks progress and success [Romans 8:37].
    1 Peter 5:7-10: After you have suffered a while, God Himself will PERFECT, ESTABLISH, STRENGTHEN, and SETTLE you.
    James 1:12: The one who ENDURES trial will receive the VICTOR’S CROWN OF LIFE. 
  1. THE WARNING: RESIST DRAWING BACK
    Hebrews 10:35-39: Do not cast away your CONFIDENCE. You have need of PATIENCE to RECEIVE THE PROMISE.
    1 Corinthians 10:13: God is FAITHFUL — He will not allow temptation beyond your ability but will provide the WAY OF ESCAPE. DRAWING BACK leads to perdition; BELIEVING leads to saving of the soul. 
  1. THE BENEDICTION: BLESSEDNESS ACTUALISED
    The closing prayer is for God to keep, strengthen, and sustain the reader in FAITH until their BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus is ACTUALISED meaningfully and purposefully.
    1 Peter 5:7: CAST ALL YOUR CARE upon Him, because He CARES for you. 

IN ONE LINE 

When life by the book feels unfair and results are ELUSIVE, the believers mandate is to KEEP ON KEEPING ON in FAITH and PATIENCE — because GOD, the FAITHFUL ARRANGER, will meet you at your point of need, turn tough times into TESTIMONY, and bring your EXPECTATION to its END-GAME in BLESSEDNESS. AMEN.

COMMUNICATING THE TRUTH 

By Leave a Comment

COMMUNICATING THE TRUTH: IT’S COMMUNICATING THE WORD! 

“As he spake these words, many BELIEVED on him. 31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which BELIEVED on him, If ye CONTINUE in MY WORD, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And you shall know THE TRUTH, and THE TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE” John 8:30-32. 

“Jesus saith unto him, I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIFE: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” John 14:6. 

A mere act of being religious, ceremonious, sectarian and relying on motivational positive-thinking words and comfort from a religiosity-speaking dogma – whose intentions may momentarily make one feel good, excited, and enthusiastic toward one’s desires for a while – just know that it cannot LIBERATE one, neither can it give one the GENUINE, in-born FREEDOM of the FAITH on ‘THE TRUTH’. For the TRUTH is only possible in God’s WORD and it is stationed in the human spirit where the FAITH to daily victory and triumph can be exercised in the grace.  

For you are born of God, it’s needful to COMMUNICATE THE TRUTH in context – and the TRUTH is THE WORD and, in THE WORD, and it is efficacious in the now and always, as you enact it scripturally to be well and whole in LIFE and GODLINESS – GODLY LIVING. 

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by HIM; and without HIM was not any thing made that was made. 4 In HIM was life; and THE LIFE was THE LIGHT of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . .14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14. 

Communication could be verbal or in action, through any format of reaching out to meet matters for self or others about us. When you communicate THE WORDS of this life, as the Holy writ of Acts 5:20 enjoins, we are to speak ‘THE TRUTH’ – not just TRUTH. For only ‘THE TRUTH’ known, believed, and spoken forth can SET one FREE and bring forth the LIBERATION, TRIUMPH, VICTORY and such like – that one needs to do and live life effectually and efficiently in Christ Jesus’ stead. 

“Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people, all The WORDS of this life” Acts 5:20. 

“That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL [PRODUCTIVE , RESULTS ORIENTED] by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD thing which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6. 

THE TRUTH, which is THE WORD, is spirit and life; and hence, a life-giver and life-giving, when communicated in TRUTH, as the Holy Writ indicates – John 6:63. More so, the Ministering spirits – the Angelic messengers – of our God unto us, only LISTEN or HARKEN to ‘THE VOICE OF THE WORD’ and nothing else, in carrying out their angelic services concerning us and all.  

They are not in the ministering service to listen to the noise and shouting around, except to THE WORD that personifies THE TRUTH. So, communicate THE TRUTH, THE WORD, if you want to enjoy the angelic ministry of God in our time as enjoined Scripturally. 

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

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that DO His commandments HEARKENING unto the VOICE OF HIS WORD” Psalms 103:20. 

When you communicate THE WORD, which is THE TRUTH, you are communicating JESUS personified. He is THE TRUTH, and He is THE WORD.  

The article ‘THE’ in the context “THE WORD, THE TRUTH, personified Jesus. And what that means is this – that what Jesus Christ would have done presently and physically if He were in humanity before you right now, is what THE WORD, THE TRUTH will and would do for you NOW and ALWAYS, as Him present with you. THINK ABOUT IT. 

“Jesus Christ the SAME yesterday, and today, and for ever” Hebrews 13:8. 

That’s the reason: when you read the Holy Bible, don’t read it as you would read any other book, because the Holy Spirit, the author, is ever present, to personify the Scriptures literally for your good in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY in Christ Jesus’ stead.  

You are to read the Bible in the FACE of JESUS personified in your inner being, to enable you to AUTHENTICATE and ENACT the SCRIPTURES. Otherwise, you will only be filled with passion and knowledge of ‘THE WORD’, without having the UNDERSTANDING of the application that brings about the needed ‘THE TRUTH’ to make life simplified. John 1:1-5, 14; 1 John 5:7; John 14:6; John 8:32. 

And the TRUTH must be communicated in love – I mean in the LOVE of God in Christ Jesus, in the essence of the Holy Spirit of TRUTH that’s given to us in the grace. Speaking the TRUTH – otherwise, communicating the TRUTH, in love ist the basis of our foundational and fundamental principles of the Faith in Christ Jesus’ stead. 

“But, SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— 16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the EDIFYING of itself in love” Ephesians 4:15-16. 

“. . . 13 However, when He, the Spirit of TRUTH, has come, He will GUIDE you into ALL TRUTH; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 He will GLORIFY Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you . . .” John 16:12-15 [John 15:26; John 14:17]. 

Know full well, that it is only by “THE TRUTH” – one’s knowledge of “THE WORD” – that SETS one FREE; and that also GIVES one the needed freedom and LIBERATION from destruction and HEALING in every facet of one’s being in Christ Jesus’ stead. The TRUTH gives THE LIFE needed to thrive in God in Christ Jesus, gives THE LIGHT to illuminate one from the errors of darkness and the darkness of life; and shows one THE WAY and THE PATH of God in Christ Jesus, to do life and live godly, in order to enjoy the very best and FULNESS of God. Psalms 16:11; Proverbs 4:18; John 1:1-5. 

And the FAITH to overcome the world system comes by THE WORD. Meaning, a no to THE WORD, means a no to FAITH, because there’s a no to THE TRUTH, which is needed to communicate to the HEAVENLY for our EARTHLY affairs to be resolved SCRIPTURALLY. Romans 10:17; 1 John 5:3-5. It worth pondering if I were you. 

Just know today and always, that – communicating THE TRUTH, is about communicating THE WORD, leading to knowing THE WAY and experiencing THE LIGHT. Hence, there is the NEED to know and understand – ALL THE WORDS OF THIS LIFE. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people, all The Words of this life” Acts 5:20. 

“As he spake these words, many BELIEVED on him. 31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which BELIEVED on him, If ye CONTINUE in MY WORD, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And you shall know THE TRUTH, and THE TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE” John 8:30-32 

“Jesus saith unto him, I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIFE: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” John 14:6. 

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7. 

“Bless the Lord, you His ANGELS, that excel in strength, that do His commandments, HEARKENING UNTO THE VOICE OF HIS WORD” Psalms 103:20. 

“He sent HIS WORD, and HEALED them, and DELIVERED them from their DESTRUCTIONS” Psalms 107:20 

“In the beginning was THE WORD, and THE WORD was with God, and THE WORD was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by HIM; and without HIM was not any thing made that was made. 4 In HIM was life; and THE LIFE was THE LIGHT of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not . . .14 And THE WORD was made FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:1-5, 14. 

“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. 

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

“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. 

“So then FAITH cometh by hearing, and hearing by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:17. 

“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, EVEN OUR FAITH. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5. 

“But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:6. 

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4. 

SUMMARY: 

The entire message is a prophetic, doctrinal decree built on one central thesis: THE TRUTH = THE WORD = JESUS Personified. Everything flows from that. Here’s the breakdown in 7 pillars: 

  1. THE FOUNDATION: THE TRUTH IS THE WORD, WHICH IS JESUS
    You establish that communicating THE TRUTH is not religious talk, but communicating THE WORD [John 8:30-32]. 
  • John 14:6: Jesus IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIFE. No access to the Father outside Him. 
  • John 1:1-5, 14: THE WORD was with God, was God, made all things, and was made FLESH. In Him is LIFE and LIGHT. 
  • 1 John 5:7: The Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost are one. 
  • Point: When you speak *THE WORD/TRUTH, you are speaking Jesus Himself — the same yesterday, today, forever [Hebrews 13:8]. 
  1. THEFUNCTION: WHAT THE TRUTH/WORD DOES
    THE TRUTH of THE WORD is not theory. It produces: 
    FREEDOM & LIBERATION — “THE TRUTH shall MAKE you FREE” from destruction [John 8:32]. 
    HEALING in every facet of one’s being in Christ Jesus’ stead. 
    LIFE, LIGHT, WAY, PATH — To thrive in God, be illuminated from darkness, and walk godly to enjoy God’s FULNESS [Psalms 16:11; Proverbs 4:18; John 1:4-5]. 
    FAITH FOR VICTORY — “FAITH to overcome the world system comes by THE WORD” [Romans 10:17; 1 John 5:3-5]. A no to THE WORD = a no to FAITH = a no to THE TRUTH = no access to resolve EARTHLY affairs from the HEAVENLY realm. 
  1. THE CONTRAST: NOT RELIGION, BUT REVELATION
    You draw a hard line: Religious, ceremonious, sectarian, or motivational “feel-good” dogma cannot LIBERATE or give GENUINE, in-born FREEDOM.
    THE TRUTH is only possible in God’s WORD, stationed in the human spirit where FAITH for daily victory is exercised in grace. It’s not emotion. It’s SCRIPTURAL ENACTMENT. 
  1. THE MANDATE: COMMUNICATE ALL THE WORDS OF THIS LIFE 
  • Acts 5:20: “Go, stand and speak… all The WORDS of this life.” 
  • Philemon 1:6: The COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH becomes EFFECTUAL/PRODUCTIVE by acknowledging every good thing IN you IN Christ Jesus. 
  • Point: Communication is verbal OR action. The command is to speak ‘THE TRUTH’ — not just truth. Only ‘THE TRUTH’ known, believed, and spoken brings *LIBERATION, TRIUMPH, VICTORY [John 6:63]. 
  1. THE SUPERNATURAL PARTNERSHIP: ANGELS HEARKEN TO THE WORD
    A key revelation: Ministering spirits [Hebrews 1:7, 14] do not respond to “noise and shouting.” They HEARKEN only to THE VOICE OF HIS WORD [Psalms 103:20].
    Implication: If you want angelic ministry, communicate THE WORD/TRUTH. That is the legal sound heaven responds to. 
  1. THE POSTURE: RECEIVE THE WORD AS JESUS PRESENT
    You must not read the Bible like any other book. The Holy Spirit is present to personify the Scriptures to you. Read in the FACE OF JESUS in your inner being to AUTHENTICATE and ENACT the Scriptures.
    Knowledge without understanding/application only produces passion, not THE TRUTH that simplifies life. 
  1. THE ATMOSPHERE: SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE
    Ephesians 4:15-16: The basis of faith is SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE — by the Holy Spirit of TRUTH [John 16:12-15]. This produces growth, edification, and the body functioning in Christ.  

THE FINAL CHARGE / SELAH 

“Know full well… Just know today and always… It’s worth pondering if I were you.” 
SELAH — PAUSE AND THINK: The Scriptures you stacked [Acts 5:20; John 8:30-32; John 14:6; Psalms 107:20; Romans 5:1-2; Hebrews 11:6; Habakkuk 2:4] all point to one demand: Know, believe, speak, and live THE WORD/THE TRUTH to be well, whole, free, and victorious in LIFE and GODLINESS. 

In one sentence: You are calling believers to stop at religious noise and start communicating THE WORD, which is THE TRUTH and JESUS Himself, because only that brings faith, freedom, healing, angelic help, and godly life.
