BEING ESTABLISHED IN THE FAITH

October 2, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

BEING ESTABLISHED IN THE FAITH: THAT’S FAITH IN THE FAITH – TO BEAUTIFY AND COLOUR YOUR WORLDS!

We live in a gracious and graceful time of human history with God in spite of the challenges and difficult times in the world. Unfortunately, lots of supposedly Believers in Christ Jesus, keep making unwarranted noise around towards their inability to enjoy the BLESSEDNESS of the FAITH, while in essence, they are not even ESTABLISHED IN THE FAITH. You cannot have Faith in the FAITH that you are NOT intentionally committed to be established in it, and still want to be Blessed in God’s BLESSEDNESS in it. God does no magic; He only COMMENDS what He COMMANDS; and His COMMANDS are INSTRUCTIONS and not an ADVICE that you PICK and CHOOSE as in a cherry garden.

Just as you cannot work in a National Post Office Services and its wage rating and you want to go and collect wages from the Civil Services pension pots, no matter how much interest you show toward it.

A lot of Christians are living in either of these: FAITH, PRESUMPTION, FOOLISHNESS (IGNORANCE).

It’s either you are living by FAITH in the Faith or you are living in PRESUMPTION and FOOLISHNESS (IGNORANCE) in the Faith. The last two will not guarantee you the BLESSEDNESS of God in the Faith.

There’s therefore the need now for you to consciously and intentionally make effort to see you get yourself established in the Faith to ensure you are fulfilled, living purposefully and meaningfully in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Faith in the done did deed of God in Christ Jesus gives you access to being ESTABLISHED IN THE FAITH.

And when you are established in the faith, it becomes easier to be OBEDIENT to the Faith. And be OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH, it becomes easier to COMMUNICATE THE FAITH.

And COMMUNICATING THE FAITH makes it gracious to beautify and colour your worlds in Christ Jesus stead.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; 10 making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you. 11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be ESTABLISHED; 12 that is, that I may be comforted together with you by the MUTUAL FAITH both of you and me” Romans 1:9-12.

“Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: 2 which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium. 3 Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek. 4 And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem. 5 And so were the churches ESTABLISHED IN THE FAITH, and increased in number daily” Acts 16:1-5.

“And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH“ Acts 6:7.

“. . . 5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship, for OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH among all nations, for his name: 6 among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ” Romans 1:5-6.

“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy LOVE and FAITH, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the COMMUNICATION OF THY FAITH may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:4-6.

“And the TIMES OF THIS IGNORANCE God WINKED (OVERLOOKED) at; but now COMMANDETH all men every where to REPENT (Change of heart attitude/behaviour): 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will JUDGE the world IN RIGHTEOUSNESS by that man whom he hath ORDAINED; whereof he hath GIVEN ASSURANCE unto all men, in that he hath RAISED him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31.

COLOUR YOUR WORLDS IN CHRIST

October 2, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

COLOUR YOUR WORLDS IN CHRIST: DO YOUR LIFE A FAVOUR BY COLOURING YOUR ‘WORLDS’ THROUGH ACKNOWLEDGED FAITH!

You are the custodian of your happiness, joy, peace, dignity, honour and more. Stop looking for or pursuing your destiny as you may have been told. Your destiny is imbedded in you in Christ. You don’t have to run to get it or pursue after it. You are, your destiny. The scriptures declare you’ve been predestined of God in Christ – (Ephesians 1:3-11). Meaning you’ve been predestined to succeed and achieve that excellence, success and goodness so madly and crazily desired to be. Your destiny is the you in you in Christ. Colour it in Christ.

I don’t know what your ‘worlds’ seems to be, at this very moment. But one thing I do know is that you can create the atmosphere of the gracious ‘worlds’ you will love to live on daily. Your faith in God through His WORD and by the working power of the blessed Holy Spirit can make all the difference.

Your intended worlds of excitement and rejuvenation in respect to joy, peace, love, relationship, marriage, family, finance, career, ministry and more, are embedded and imbedded on and in your FAITH in Christ.

For God makes all things beautiful in His time. You are a part of that beauty. You are fearfully and wonderfully made in God’s image and likeness as the scriptures do record about you and all.

You can frame, colour your worlds today with the atmosphere you will really love to do life with. I pray you God’s grace and blessings as you remain steadfast in Faith to colour your worlds in Christ. For it’s your time to manifest the fragrance and aroma of grace through the acknowledging of every good thing DONE in you, DONE FOR you and being DONE THROUGH you in Christ. You are the reason why the earth was made and created – Live strong and live rejuvenating.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

“And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How BEAUTIFUL (Colourful) are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!” Romans 10:15.

“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.

“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.

“Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” Hebrews 11:3.

“Let us hold fast the profession (confession) of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised)” Hebrews 10:23.

AFD OCTOBER EDITION

October 1, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WELCOME TO MONTH OCTOBER 2024: “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS”: FOR GOD IS FAITHFUL IN HIS FAITHFULNESS – IT’S HIS BEING AND HIS NATURE!

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

One thing is certain in life and grace, that is – LIKE BEGAT LIKE. A tree don’t give birth to an animal or mammal. A Lion don’t give birth to a Leopard or Tiger, nor a Goat give birth to a Sheep or Ram, even in their proximity of likeness or characteristics. And if anyone wants to be god like God as the Scriptures enjoins, one needs to “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS”, for as He is, so are we in this world as written:

“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR in love; but PERFECT love CASTETH out fear: because fear hath torment. He that FEARETH is not made PERFECT in love” 1 John 4:17-18.

One need to know full well that we ARE the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture according to the Holy Scriptures – [(Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 100:3; 1 John 4:17-18); (John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5)]. It then means that we can live a FAITHFUL life and achieve good successes with God when we dare “HAVE FAITH IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS” for us in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“O Lord, thou art my God; I will EXALT thee, I will PRAISE thy name; for thou hast done WONDERFUL things; thy COUNSELS of old are FAITHFULNESS and TRUTH” Isaiah 25:1.

The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was FAITHFUL to ‘HAVE IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS’ and therein prospered when he dare. The same enabling grace as to being FAITHFUL to ‘HAVE IN GOD’S FAITHFULNESS’ is available to us today when we dare, and it’s irrespective of any of our challenges toward being FAITHFUL and to then PROSPER in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [2 Peter 1:2-4; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2; 24:1)].

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

God is FAITHFUL to Himself in FAITHFULNESS. 2 Timothy 2:13.
God is FAITHFUL to His Word and promises in His FAITHFULNESS. Hebrews 10:23.
God is FAITHFUL to His relationship in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Corinthians 1:9; Hebrews 8:28-30.
God is FAITHFUL to forgive in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 John 1:9 (5-10).
God is FAITHFUL in agreement in His FAITHFULNESS. Deuteronomy 7:9.
God is FAITHFUL to establish and deliver in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Thessalonians 3:3.
God is FAITHFUL to accomplish His part in the assignment that He gives to us in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Thessalonians 5:24.
God is the and a FAITHFUL creator in His FAITHFULNESS. 1 Peter 4:19.
. . . and many more of His FAITHFULNESS as in the Holy Writ . . . Kindly read the HOLY BIBLE to know the more.

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

REACHING OUT – TO THE NATIONS

September 30, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

REACHING OUT – TO THE NATIONS: LET’S PRAY AS THE PSALMIST!

Be a VESSEL of USE and of CHANGE, CREATION and INNOVATION in the KINGDOM and for humanity good and goodness; and not as an ORNAMENT or IDOL. It’s as a VESSEL in USE, that we can keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay; and in turn, ADVANCE the good and goodness of others through the Kingdom causes of our God, in His BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Let’s PRAY together after this PSALMIST act of PRAYER:

“O God, in mercy bless us; let your face beam with joy as you look down at us. 2 Send us around the world with the news of your saving power and your eternal plan for all mankind. 3 How everyone throughout the earth will praise the Lord! 4 How glad the nations will be, singing for joy because you are their King and will give true justice to their people! 5 Praise God, O world! May all the peoples of the earth give thanks to you. 6-7 For the earth has yielded abundant harvests. God, even our own God, will bless us. And peoples from remotest lands will worship him” (Psalms 67 – LB).

Thanks for taking time to personalised the prayer for the good and goodness of the nation as a vessel in use and of change, innovation, creativity and such like. For you are God’s ambassador in Christ Jesus stead. Ensure it from where you are into the ends of the earth.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“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.

“Therefore IF ANY MAN be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE (CREATION): 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.

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

“Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; 25 that frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish; 26 that CONFIRMETH the WORD of his SERVANT, and PERFORMETH the COUNSEL of his MESSENGERS . . .” Isaiah 44:24-28.

“Yea, so have I strived to PREACH THE GOSPEL, not where Christ was NAMED, lest I should BUILD upon another MAN’S FOUNDATION: 21 but as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand” Romans 15:21.

MEMORABLE DATE – FOR HEALTHY WELL-BEING: GIVE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WORTH AND MEANINGFUL FULFILMENT!

“So go ahead. Eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, for God APPROVES of this! 8 Wear fine clothes, with a splash of cologne! 9 Live HAPPILY with the woman you love through all the meaningless days of life that God has given you under the sun. The wife God gives you is your REWARD for all your earthly toil. 10 Whatever you do, do well. For when you go to the grave, there will be no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom” Ecclesiastes 9: 7-10 NLT

When your wife chooses to take you out on a date – your head spins for good, but be PREPARED to pay the bill to save the day. REALLY? YES!

When your WIFE takes you out for a REFRESHING and REJUVENATING DATE to spice up, refresh and energise your relationship, kindly ask no questions – just Eat and Drink whatsoever is provided – then PAY the BILL and say – Amen!

THERE’S HEALTH IN MARRYING THE ONE YOU LOVE, AND IN LIVING AND LOVING THE ONE YOU MARRIED.

Married is NOT CURSE nor A CURSE as some may attribute, associate and acclaimed to be, for us, marriage is BLESSED and it’s of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen.

And like every living organism, you need to continuously EXPLORE to enjoy the fulness of God’s GRACE to GRACE in it, with the special one you love and care about daily. Life is worth living, even in marriage. Make your marriage liveable, likeable and loveable for each other.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Let no man SEEK his own, but every man another’s WELL-BEING. 25 Whatsoever is SOLD in the meat market, that EAT, asking no question for CONSCIENCE sake: 26 for the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof” 1 Corinthians 10:24-26.

“Go thy way, EAT thy bread with JOY, and DRINK thy wine with a MERRY HEART; for God now ACCEPTETH thy works. 8 Let thy garments be ALWAYS white; and let thy head LACK no ointment. 9 Live JOYFULLY with the wife whom thou LOVEST all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy PORTION in this life, and in thy labour which thou TAKEST under the sun. 10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest” Ecclesiastes 9:7-10.

” . . . 8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: BUT CONTRARIWISE BLESSING; KNOWING THAT YE ARE THEREUNTO CALLED, THAT YE SHOULD INHERIT A BLESSING. 10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:8-12 (1-12).

“ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God CREATED man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God BLESSED them, and God said unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH the earth, and SUBDUE it: and have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. 29 And God said, Behold, I have GIVEN you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. 30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have GIVEN every green herb for meat: and it was so. 31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day”.

LET DILIGENCE BE YOUR WATCHWORD IN LIFE AND GODLINESS: IT’S ABSOLUTELY REWARDING TO DO LIFE AND LIVING GODLY IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, NOBLE, DIGNITY, VALUE, SUBSTANCE); he shall not stand before MEAN (OBSCURE, UNPROFITABLE, UNPRODUCTIVE, SLOTHFUL, SLUGGARD) men” Proverbs 22:29/Emphasis Mine.

DILIGENCE rewards, empowers, emancipates and positions one to greatness. Start your dawn day as in your work week with the spirit of diligence and you shall see the result of it at the end of the day.

“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.

DILIGENCE is the conscientiousness in paying proper attention to a task; giving the degree of care required in a given situation; persevering determination to be consistently consistent to perform a task with a smart effort to achieve a desired schedule.

DILIGENCE is an ingredient to hallmark one in attaining a greater heights in one’s PLANS, PURPOSES AND PURSUITS; and also to position one in grace in order to succeed with God in life and godliness.

DILIGENT people have no room for the SLUGGARD and LUKEWARM person that waste resources for doing life – TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL AND PEOPLE; that is, it helps to keep the SLOTHFUL at bay in anyway lest they become the mountain, valley, crooked and rough places in the path of one’s greatness. Therefore, SPEW them out of your way. You are your own destiny DEFINITION. BE DILIGENT TO MAKE IT BE.

DILIGENCE makes you to be – PRINCIPLED, RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE. It helps you to see the need to be PRUDENT with the resources of doing life and living godly. And good STEWARDS can’t be found wanting in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Check out any of such essence to ascertain for yourself as in the SCRIPTURAL book of wisdom.

DILIGENCE is a HALLMARK to REIGN and RULE in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY in Christ Jesus stead.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS [UNJUST, UNGRATEFUL, UNFAITHFUL] 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 6:11-12/Emphasis Mine.

“He becometh POOR that DEALETH with a SLACK hand: but the HAND of the DILIGENT maketh RICH” Proverbs 10:14.

“The SLOTHFUL man ROASTETH NOT that which he TOOK in HUNTING: but the SUBSTANCE of a DILIGENT man is PRECIOUS” Proverbs 12:27.

“The LAZY MAN does not CATCH and ROAST his PREY, But the PRECIOUS POSSESSION of a [WISE] man is DILIGENCE [because he RECOGNIZES OPPORTUNITIES and SEIZES them]” Proverbs 12:27 AMPLIFIED.

“The SOUL of the SLUGGARD DESIRETH, and hath NOTHING: but the SOUL of the DILIGENT shall be MADE FAT (BLOSSOM, FLOURISH)” Proverbs 13:4.

PRAYER – OUR INESCAPABLE, GLOBAL & SUPREME TASK: THE ANTIDOTE TO PERSONAL, FAMILY, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ILLS!

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

FOR A NO RAIN, MEANS A NO RAINBOW – indicating the essence of PRAYER as the ANSWER to human quest with God, in Christ Jesus stead. AND THIS IS ABOUT INVOLVING THE HEAVENLY THROUGH PRAYERS ON OUR EARTHLY AFFAIRS – and it’s a must for you and I, who are the Believing One, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Let’s do it now and not tomorrow, knowing that the present and current WARS, HUMAN DISPLACEMENTS AND THE UNSTABLE ECONOMIC EFFECT in the world may outweighs the PANDEMIC of any sorts and many are dying and will die of starvation and others of the inhumane in the displacements by wars, especially in a failed state economy. POVERTY and UNEMPLOYMENT is already illuminating throughout the world and even in the very place you are at the moment, if you look closer and closely within.

The current atmosphere of challenges around at the moment in human history, knows no bounds and it’s an awakening TIMELESS TIMELINE calls to change the course and trajectory of our life, family and nation through PRAYERS – and PRAYER is the BELIEVER’S in Christ – GLOBAL, INESCAPABLE and SUPREME TASK in the grace, knowingly and unknowingly.

“I exhort therefore, that, FIRST OF ALL, SUPPLICATIONS, PRAYERS, INTERCESSIONS, and GIVING OF THANKS, be made for ALL MEN; 2 for KINGS, and for all that are in AUTHORITY; that we may LEAD A QUIET AND PEACEABLE LIFE in all godliness and honesty. 3 For this is GOOD AND ACCEPTABLE in the sight of God our Saviour; 4 who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth” 1 Timothy 2:1-4.

I therefore employ you to endeavour to make this awakening to become a PERSONAL, FAMILY and NATIONAL PRAYER WALL, set task. I do believe it will turn the hearts of kings and leaders, and all in respective leadership place of governance to do the good; then we can stop complaining and blaming only the POLITICIANS and OTHERS alike respectively for all our uncontrollable human troubles, knowing they are human’s who are equally subject to natural causes with the changes beyond human; and they are limited in many phase being human, to meet the challenging needs of everyone at same time, which is beyond their self-centred and selfish ends sometimes.

There’s the need to be awaken to this PRAYER TASK if we MUST make a remarkable eternal effect and the difference we care about in our earthly life before our God, community and humanity. It’s our time to beckon on the HEAVENLY to intervene in our EARTHLY affairs, in order to make it good beyond borders and walls of difference. It’s all about MAKING a difference and impact through PRAYERS as it’s written in the Holy Writ of 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

“If I SHUT UP HEAVEN that THERE BE NO RAIN, or if I command the LOCUSTS TO DEVOUR THE LAND, or if I send PESTILENCE AMONG MY PEOPLE; 14 if my people, which are CALLED BY MY NAME, shall HUMBLE THEMSELVES, and PRAY, and SEEK MY FACE, and TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS; then will I HEAR from heaven, and will FORGIVE their sin, and will HEAL their land. 15 Now mine EYES shall be open, and mine EARS attent unto the PRAYER that is MADE in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

Herein is my summary from the Scripture of 2 Chronicles 7:13-15 with respect to why we need to earnestly pray to give and welcome the heavenly into our earthly affairs, as a demand upon us to bring about an answer to the world’s challenging and difficult times – as the Believing ones – God’s precious name calls the people. Amen.

* WHEN THERE’S NO RAIN (PRODUCTIVITY and ECONOMIC MISHAP) to enable one to thrive, blossom and flourish toward growth.

* WHEN THE LOCUSTS (Economic recessions and Austerity Measures) invades, ruined and rules the land (personal and national economy).

* WHEN PESTILENCE (Divers kinds of continuous PANDEMIC Diseases and Sicknesses) invades the land (Nations) despite all the research and technology in medical science.

Just know full well that NO RAIN means a NO RAINBOW – and PRAYER is the ANSWER. And it’s about involving the HEAVENLY in our EARTHLY AFFAIRS – and it’s a must for you the BELIEVING ONE in CHRIST JESUS stead.

Let’s do it now. Not tomorrow. The ECONOMIC EFFECTS may outweighs the PANDEMIC and WARS, for many will die of starvation. POVERTY and UNEMPLOYMENT just like SICKNESSES and DISEASES, are already alarming both locally, nationally and globally.

DEAR FRIEND, KNOW FOR SURE THAT PRAYER IS OUR INESCAPABLE, GLOBAL AND SUPREME TASK – IT’S THE ANTIDOTE TO PERSONAL, FAMILY, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ILLS FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

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

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

“CAST thy bread UPON the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. 2 Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth. 3 IF THE CLOUDS BE FULL OF RAIN, THEY EMPTY THEMSELVES UPON THE EARTH: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be. 4 He that OBSERVETH the wind shall not sow; and he that REGARDETH the clouds shall not reap. 5 As thou KNOWEST not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do GROW in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou KNOWEST not the WORKS of God who maketh all. 6 In the morning SOW thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou KNOWEST not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good” Ecclesiastes 11:1-6.
