TAKING THE STOCK OF YOUR LIFE ON GOD’S WORD BY LOVE

June 27, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

TAKING THE STOCK OF YOUR LIFE ON GOD’S WORD BY LOVE: AND LOVING TO DO GOD’S WORD BY LOVE AND NOT AS A BURDEN – THAT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN LIFE AND GRACE! 

“By this we know that we LOVE the children of God, when we LOVE God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the LOVE of God, that we KEEP His COMMANDMENTS. And His commandments are not BURDENSOME (GRIEVOUS, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER, TROUBLESOME, HARD, DIFFICULT) 1 John 5:2-3/Emphasis Mine. 

Do you always take stock on your obedience to God’s WORD? Do you DO God’s WORD in LOVE? If Yes -that’s GREAT and COMMENDABLE. But here’s the essence of the questions: To LOVE doing and to keep DOING God’s WORD of command in LOVE is the hallmark of doing the WORD effectually, efficiently, effortlessly, selflessly, and without sweat or guilt. More so, when we remember this principle: God’s WORD is not GRIEVOUS, IRKSOME, BURDENSOME, A TASKMASTER, TROUBLESOME, HARD or DIFFICULT to practice – when we approach it with a spirited and heartfelt act of LOVE. I can boldly say to you today: DOING God’s WORD in LOVE makes all the difference in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. 

It must be noted that God is not a taskmaster. Hence, His COMMANDS are not an ADVICE – they are genuine, faithful, true, sure, real and empowering. He will always COMMEND what He COMMANDS when it is obediently taken and done in LOVE. And God’s intent is always for our good – to help us and to give us leverage in our godly living and in doing life in all circumstances. And when we are LOVING by God’s WORD, life becomes liveable, loveable, reachable, and enjoyable in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

“For I know the PLANS and THOUGHTS that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘PLANS for PEACE and WELL-BEING and NOT FOR DISASTER, to give you a FUTURE and a HOPE. 12 Then you will CALL on Me and you will come and PRAY to Me, and I will HEAR [your voice] and I will LISTEN to you” Jeremiah 29:11-12 Amplified. 

A WILLING and OBEDIENT heart of LOVE toward God’s WORD, is all it takes to eat the good of the Kingdom. This is very possible: 

  • When LOVE and LOVING is not done with a DUTY heart – as if God is a TASKMASTER. 
  • When you KNOW that God has not TASKED you or MASTERED you in LOVE to tempt you with an obligation, He knows is impossible for you and anyone to do. 
  • When you understand that God is not out to see you FAIL in LOVE, just so He punish you to satisfy Himself well and good. 

Therefore, taking STOCK on God’s WORD in LOVE, and LOVING to DO God’s WORD in LOVE – should not be seen as a BURDEN. It is God’s avenue of grace for your good. Because it is in the DOING, in LOVE, that MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE for an EFFECTUAL and EFFICIENT walk with God in doing LIFE and living GODLY in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

If God demands your FINANCE, TIME, TALENT/SKILL, and whatever He requires of you for His Kingdom cause – and to keep the enemy at bay – it is WORTH doing it in LOVE for God and His work on earth, rather than doing it as an obligation and duty in fear. Even in matters of NECESSITY, as Apostle Paul would say concerning the call of God upon His life – still do it in love and not in fear of bondage. For PERFECT LOVE casts out FEAR and PHOBIAS. Let God’s LOVE rule and reign supreme in your world, as it is in His world. 

“Beloved, let us [unselfishly] LOVE and seek the best for one another, for LOVE is from God; and everyone who LOVES [others] is BORN of God and KNOWS God [through personal experience]. 8 The one who DOES NOT LOVE has not become ACQUAINTED with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is LOVE. [He is the ORIGINATOR of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.] . . . 17 In this [union and fellowship with Him], LOVE is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have CONFIDENCE in the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him]; because as He is, so ARE WE in this world. 18 There is NO FEAR IN LOVE [dread does not exist]. But PERFECT (complete, full-grown) LOVE DRIVES OUT FEAR, because FEAR involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]” 1 John 4:7-8, 17-18 Amplified. 

“For though I PREACH the gospel, I have NOTHING to glory of: for NECESSITY is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I PREACH not the gospel! 17 For if I DO this thing WILLINGLY, I have a REWARD: but if AGAINST my will, a DISPENSATION of the GOSPEL is committed unto me” 1 Corinthians 9:16-17. 

I PRAY that as you take STOCK in doing life and living godly, may you do it by God’s WORD, in LOVE; and may you maintain consistency in this realm and sphere by LOVE, and keep DOING God’s WORD by LOVE – and not as a BURDEN – while making ALL THE DIFFERENCE. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“By this we know that we LOVE the children of God, when we LOVE God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the LOVE of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not BURDENSOME” 1 John 5:2-3. 

“If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall eat the good of the land” Isaiah 1:19. 

“There hath no TEMPTATION taken you but such as is common to man: but God is FAITHFUL, who will not SUFFER (ALLOW) you to be TEMPTED above that ye are able; but will with the TEMPTATION also MAKE A WAY TO ESCAPE, that ye may be ABLE to bear it” 1 Corinthians 10:13 (Emphasis Mine). 

“Let no man SAY when he is TEMPTED, I am TEMPTED of God: for God CANNOT be TEMPTED with evil, neither TEMPTETH he any man: 14 but every man is TEMPTED, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed” James 1:13-14. 

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, not SINCERELY, supposing to add AFFLICTION to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then? NOTWITHSTANDING, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do REJOICE, yea, and will REJOICE” Philippians 1:15-18. 

“Though I SPEAK WITH THE TONGUES of MEN and of ANGELS, but HAVE NOT LOVE, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the GIFT OF PROPHECY, and UNDERSTAND ALL MYSTERIES and ALL KNOWLEDGE, and though I have ALL FAITH, so that I could remove mountains, but HAVE NOT LOVE, I am nothing. 3 And though I BESTOW ALL MY GOODS TO FEED THE POOR, and though I give my body to be burned, BUT HAVE NOT LOVE, IT PROFITS ME NOTHING . . .” 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 NKJV. 

“LOVE has been PERFECTED among us in this: 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 CASTS OUT FEAR, because FEAR involves TORMENT. But he who FEARS has not been MADE PERFECT IN LOVE” 1 John 4:17-18. 

“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 . . .But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

SUMMARY: 

The message is a prophetic, pastoral call to obedience driven by LOVE, not duty, fear, or burden.  

Here are the core pillars: 

  1. THE CENTRAL THESIS: LOVE MAKES OBEDIENCE LIGHT

Main Point: DOING God’s WORD in LOVE is what makes the Christian life effectual, efficient, effortless, and guilt-free. 
God’s commands are NOT a BURDEN. They are not GRIEVOUS, IRKSOME, or a TASKMASTER. 
1 John 5:2-3 — “His commandments are not BURDENSOME” 
When we obey from a spirited, heartfelt place of LOVE, it makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. 

  1. GOD’S NATURE & INTENT: NOT A TASKMASTER

Truth: God is NOT out to see you fail so He can punish you. 

  • His COMMANDS are not mere ADVICE. They are genuine, faithful, true, sure, real, and empowering. 
  • His intent is ALWAYS for our good — to help us and give us leverage in godly living. 
  • He does NOT tempt us with obligations He knows are impossible. 
  • He will always COMMEND obedience that is done in LOVE. 
    When we live by God’s WORD in LOVE, life becomes liveable, loveable, reachable, and enjoyable in Christ Jesus’ stead. 
  1. THE CONDITION FOR KINGDOM BLESSING: WILLING + OBEDIENT HEART

Key: Isaiah 1:19 — “If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall eat the good of the land.” 
A WILLING and OBEDIENT heart of LOVE toward God’s WORD is all it takes to access Kingdom goodness. 
This is very possible. But LOVE must NOT be done with a DUTY heart, as if God is a taskmaster. 

  1. LOVE VS FEAR, DUTY VS BONDAGE

Warning: Don’t serve God out of fear, obligation, or bondage. 

  • PERFECT LOVE casts out FEAR and PHOBIAS. 1 John 4:18 
  • There is NO FEAR IN LOVE. Fear involves torment and expectation of punishment. 
  • Even in matters of NECESSITY, like Apostle Paul’s call 1 Cor 9:16-17, do it WILLINGLY in LOVE for the REWARD, not against your will. 
  • Whether giving FINANCE, TIME, TALENT/SKILL, or anything for Kingdom cause — do it in LOVE for God, not duty in fear. 
    Let God’s LOVE rule and reign in your world as it does in His. 
  1. THE EVIDENCE OF LOVE: OBEDIENCE + RELATIONSHIP

Proof: 1 John 5:2 — “By this we know that we LOVE the children of God, when we LOVE God and keep His commandments.” 
1 John 4:7-8 — “God is LOVE. He who does not love does not know God.” 
Love is not just emotion. Love is DOING God’s Word. 
1 Cor 13:1-3 — Without LOVE, gifts, sacrifice, and ministry profit NOTHING. 

  1. GOD’S FAITHFULNESS IN THE PROCESS

Encouragement: 

  • Jeremiah 29:11-12 — God’s plans for you are for PEACE, WELLBEING, FUTURE and HOPE. He hears when you pray. 
  • 1 Cor 10:13 — God is FAITHFUL. He will not allow temptation beyond what you can bear, and He will make a WAY OF ESCAPE. 
  • Romans 5:5,8 — God’s LOVE is SHED abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. He COMMENDED His love to us while we were yet sinners. 
    The Holy Spirit perfects love in us so we can have BOLDNESS and CONFIDENCE 1 John 4:17. 
  1. THE PRAYER & CALL TO ACTION

Prayer: That we take STOCK in doing life and living godly by God’s WORD IN LOVE. 
That we maintain consistency in the realm of LOVE, keep DOING God’s WORD by LOVE — not as a BURDEN — and it will MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS THAT HOLD IT TOGETHER: 

  1. Love = Obedience: 1 John 5:2-3 
  2. Willing Obedience = Kingdom Good: Isaiah 1:19 
  3. God is Faithful, Not a Tempter: 1 Cor 10:13, James 1:13-14 
  4. Motive Matters: Philippians 1:15-18 — Preach/do it in LOVE, not contention. 
  5. Love is Everything: 1 Cor 13:1-3 
  6. Love Casts Out Fear: 1 John 4:17-18 
  7. Love is Supernaturally Given: Romans 5:5,8  

IN ONE SENTENCE: 

God is not a taskmaster. When you take stock of your life, be WILLING and OBEDIENT to do God’s WORD IN LOVE — not duty, not fear — because His commands are not burdensome, His love empowers you, and this LOVE-driven obedience is what makes your walk with God effective and your life fruitful.

THE HOLY SPIRIT OF LOVE 

June 27, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

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. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

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). 

Further Scriptural Reading: 1 Corinthians 13. 

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. 

  1. THE OUTCOME: GOD’S LOVED-WORLD VS THE WORLD

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. 
    Ephesians 3:14-21 AMP – The prayer: to be strengthened, rooted in love, to experience the width, length, height, depth of Christ’s love, and be filled with all the fullness of God. 

 FINAL CALL 
The Holy Spirit of Love is God’s answer. He enables believers to live differently and be the answer to the world.

MIRRORING YOUR WELLBEING BY GOD’S LOVE 

June 27, 2026 By Pastor Chukie 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.

HIS LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS 

June 26, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

HIS LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS: HE IS THE LIGHT THAT DISPELS EVERY DARKNESS! 

“O house of Jacob, COME YE, and let us WALK IN THE LIGHT of the Lord” Isaiah 2:5. 

There is a greater need to walk in the LIGHT now than there has ever been in human history. The level of darkness and untruth has overshadowed and overwhelmed many today – and the fear of darkness and all it stands for now lives within many more than ever before, even in our daily acts of doing life and living godly in the grace in Christ Jesus’ stead. Darkness speaks of evil and wickedness, lies and untruth, hypocrisy and prejudice, sentiment and dissimulation, and such like that depict the devil and his cohorts who perpetuate and symbolise darkness and its effects.  

LIGHT, on the other hand, indicates and signifies the hallmark of Development, Progress, Freedom, Victory, Triumph, Illumination, Enlightenment, Productivity, Fulfilment, Purposeful Living, Colourful Living, Meaningful Living, and such like. And when one comes into the LIGHT that Christ is and provides, and starts acting on His WORD in that LIGHT, it is apparent that one will receive illumination and enlightenment against all forms of DARKNESS as it is written: 

“Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the LIGHT of the world; he that follows me shall not WALK in DARKNESS, but shall have the LIGHT of LIFE” – John 8:12. 

“But the PATH OF THE JUST is as the SHINING LIGHT, that SHINETH MORE AND MORE unto the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18. 

Until one finds light in the LIGHT that the Lord Jesus Christ is and provides, there cannot be true illumination and enlightenment from darkness. You are FREE from every form of DARKNESS by the illumination and enlightenment you have RECEIVED in you of Christ Jesus, who is the Saviour, Lord and King. Amen. 

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is LIGHT, and in him is NO DARKNESS at all. 6 If we say that we have FELLOWSHIP with him, and WALK IN DARKNESS, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 but if we WALK IN THE LIGHT, as he is in the LIGHT, we have FELLOWSHIP one with another, and the BLOOD of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, AND HIS WORD IS NOT IN US” 1 John 1:5-10. 

To HAVE and WALK in Christ Jesus’ LIGHT is to WALK in His WORD. And when you find the LIGHT of Christ Jesus in you, ‘THAT’ DARKNESS in your – Marriage, Marital Choices, Relationship, Finance, Career, Ministry, Leadership and more – will disperse and be dispelled with ease by the power and grace in Christ’s light. And you will know and experience what it means to have a life without sweat, stress, pressure and depression. Christ’s light indicates God’s favour, wisdom and speed to thrive, succeed, triumph, overcome and win victoriously in His leisure and with meaningful fulfilment. 

“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” John 1:1-5 

When you resolve, even now – being today – to allow and follow the LIGHT of Christ Jesus, you will never walk in darkness. But His light will illuminate and enlighten every darkness, so that you can see all about you that pertains to doing life and living godly in God’s divine Plan, Purpose and Pursuit for you. 

It’s time to COLOUR and RAINBOW your life with the LIGHT that is in and of Christ Jesus. Be Blessed in Life and Godliness in the LIGHT of Christ Jesus. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING: 

“O house of Jacob, COME YE, and let us WALK IN THE LIGHT of the Lord” Isaiah 2:5. 

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH OF LIFE (ILLUMINATION): in thy PRESENCE (LIGHT) is FULNESS of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND (RIGHTEOUSNESS) there are pleasures (FULFILMENT) for evermore” Psalms 16:11 (Emphasis/Paraphrase Mine) 

“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” 2 Corinthians 4:6. 

“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” John 1:1-5 

“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore CAST OFF THE WORKS OF DARKNESS, and let us PUT ON THE ARMOUR OF LIGHT. 13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying” Romans 13:11-13. 

“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is LIGHT, and in him is NO DARKNESS at all. 6 If we say that we have FELLOWSHIP with him, and WALK IN DARKNESS, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 but if we WALK IN THE LIGHT, as he is in the LIGHT, we have FELLOWSHIP one with another, and the BLOOD of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, AND HIS WORD IS NOT IN US” 1 John 1:5-10. 

SUMMARY: 

This is a Gospel teaching and call to walk in Christ as LIGHT in a time of increasing darkness. The core message is: Jesus Christ IS the LIGHT, and walking in Him and His WORD brings total wholeness, freedom, and direction for life. 

 KEY POINTS: 

  1. THE URGENCY: Walk in the LIGHT Now
  • The message opens with Isaiah 2:5 — “COME YE, and let us WALK IN THE LIGHT of the Lord”. 
  • It declares there is a greater need to walk in LIGHT now than ever in human history. 
  • Reason: The level of darkness, untruth, fear, evil, wickedness, lies, hypocrisy, prejudice, and deception has overwhelmed many — even believers trying to live godly. 
  • DARKNESS is described as the system of the devil and his cohorts. 
  • LIGHT is described as the hallmark of Development, Progress, Freedom, Victory, Illumination, Productivity, Purposeful/Colourful/Meaningful Living. 
  1. THE SOURCE: Christ Jesus IS The LIGHT

Key scriptures anchor this: 

  • John 8:12 – “I am the LIGHT of the world; he that follows me shall not WALK in DARKNESS, but shall have the LIGHT of LIFE” 
  • John 1:1-5 – The WORD was God, and in Him was life; and the life was the light of men. The light shines in darkness, and darkness cannot overcome it. 
  • 1 John 1:5-10 – God is LIGHT, and in Him is NO DARKNESS at all. If we WALK IN THE LIGHT, we have fellowship, and the blood of Jesus cleanses us. 
  • 2 Corinthians 4:6 – God has “SHINED in our hearts, to GIVE the LIGHT of the knowledge of the glory of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 

The point: To HAVE and WALK in Christ’s LIGHT is to WALK in His WORD. You cannot have true illumination apart from Him. 

  1. THE RESULT: What Happens When You Walk in the LIGHT

When you receive and act on the LIGHT of Christ in you: 

  1. Darkness Disperses – “THAT DARKNESS” in Marriage, Choices, Relationships, Finance, Career, Ministry, Leadership “will disperse and be dispelled with ease” by Christ’s grace and power. 
  2. Freedom from Pressure – You experience life without sweat, stress, pressure, and depression. 
  3. God’s Favour and Speed – Christ’s light brings God’s favour, wisdom, and speed to thrive, succeed, triumph, overcome, and win with meaningful fulfilment. 
  4. Divine Direction – His light illuminates God’s divine Plan, Purpose and Pursuit for your life. Psalm 16:11 – “in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy” 
  5. Sanctification – Romans 13:11-13 calls us to “CAST OFF THE WORKS OF DARKNESS, and PUT ON THE ARMOUR OF LIGHT” and walk honestly. 

The promise: Proverbs 4:18 – “the PATH OF THE JUST is as the SHINING LIGHT, that SHINETH MORE AND MORE unto the perfect day” 

  1. THE CALL TO ACTION
  • Resolve Today: “When you resolve, even now – being today – to allow and follow the LIGHT of Christ Jesus, you will never walk in darkness.” 
  • Let the Light Colour Your Life: “It’s time to COLOUR and RAINBOW your life with the LIGHT that is in and of Christ Jesus.” 
  • This is a call to choose fellowship with God over fellowship with darkness, to confess and be cleansed, and to live by the Word. 
  1. SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS TO PONDER

The teaching closes by listing key verses for meditation: Isaiah 2:5, Psalm 16:11, 2 Corinthians 4:6, John 1:1-5, Romans 13:11-13, 1 John 1:5-10. 
All of them reinforce: God is LIGHT. Jesus is LIGHT. The Word is LIGHT. Walk in it. 

Overall Message in One Sentence: 

In a world overwhelmed by darkness, Jesus Christ is the only true LIGHT. When we receive Him and walk in His Word, His illumination frees us from every darkness, aligns us with God’s purpose, and leads us into a life of victory, joy, and fulfilment. 

Amen.

PASTORAL MINISTRY – IT’S NOT A GAME

June 26, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

PASTORAL MINISTRY – IT’S NOT A GAME: IT’S A SHEPHERD AND SHEPHERDING MINISTERIAL CALLING! 

“And Moses spake unto the Lord, saying, 16 Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, SET A MAN OVER THE CONGREGATION, 17 which may GO OUT before them, and which may GO IN before them, and which may LEAD THEM OUT, and which may BRING THEM IN; that the CONGREGATION of the Lord be not AS SHEEP which have NO SHEPHERD” Numbers 27:15-17. 

You are either CALLED or NOT. Everyone CALLED is a MESSENGER. And every MESSENGER is GIVEN a SPECIFIC and SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT with a MESSAGE to FEED the FLOCKS – God’s own Heritage – with the needed KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING, that’s TOWARD God and His Christ, and NOT TOWARD man or creation at all. John 17:3/Jeremiah 3:15. 

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance TOWARD God, and faith TOWARD our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21. 

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to RECEIVE glory and honour and power: for thou hast CREATED ALL THINGS, and for THY PLEASURE they ARE and WERE CREATED” Revelation 4:11. 

Those NOT CALLED, are not MESSENGERS but HIRELING – Thieves and Robbers – John 10:8, 12-13. And with such there is NO MESSAGE nor any specific given assignment of God but that of their self-indulgence, extortion, gratification, men applaud and egotism under the influence of satanic/demonic and cohort’s mission. This is the reason for – Adulteration, Schism, Bewitching, Robbery, Dogmas, Sorcery, Falsehoods, Confusion and such like, in the body Ministry of the Gospel, indicating and supposedly the signs of the last days – [Philippians 1:15-18; 2 Timothy 3:1-9; 2 Peter 3:1-7]. 

These sets of SELF-MADE-UP and SELF-CALLED Pastors, are full of fables, philosophy of men, endless genealogies, vain jangling, teachers of idealism and realism, denominational made-up creeds, religious bigots, sectarianism, man-made tradition and dogmas that leads people to further bondages and hence makes God’s WORD of no effect in the Gospel. [1 Timothy 1:1-11; Colossians 2:8; Mark 7:1-13]. 

PASTORAL MINISTRY? It’s not an Office Position – It’s a set Ministerial Calling – It’s a SHEPHERD and SHEPHERDING that is principled with responsibility and accountability in Christ Jesus stead, for the GLORY and PRAISE of God. [Galatians 6:14-16; Revelation 4:11]. It’s a set MINISTERIAL calling to FEED God’s people without sentiment, prejudice and dissimulation; and to LEAD them healthily in purposeful LEADERSHIP as God’s REDEEMED, PRECIOUS and BLESSED people; and not to the BOSS and DOMINEER people around for self-gratification and egotism. There’s no room for SELF INTEREST and SELFISHNESS in the PASTORAL MINISTRY as a SHEPHERD and SHEPHERDING of God. 

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

“And I will SET UP SHEPHERDS over them which shall FEED them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the Lord” Jeremiah 23:4. 

Also, you are either sent by God – as John the Baptist and the Disciples were in the Gospel days – or you are sending yourself. God does call and send [John 1:6-36; Mark 6:7-13]. Those He calls and sends; He also keeps and protects and defends. It’s not about liking the Ministerial outfits. Being called and sent forth should be paramount. “Send forth” could be to a person to enhance the calling, or to a group of people, or to a generation, or to a dispensation, or to a community.  

You must know the definition of the calling and sending before taking a step, because of the warfare and the many uncertainties and unknowns in the cause and course that obedience demands – without having any reason to regret your step of faith to advance the kingdom of our God and to keep the Enemy and cohorts at bay. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING: 

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

“And I will SET UP SHEPHERDS over them which shall FEED them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the Lord” Jeremiah 23:4. 

“The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 2 FEED the FLOCK of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for FILTHY LUCRE, but of a READY MIND; 3 neither as being lords over God’s HERITAGE, but being ENSAMPLES to the FLOCK. 4 And when the CHIEF SHEPHERD shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away” 1 Peter 5:1-4. 

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is A THIEF AND A ROBBER. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is THE SHEPHERD OF THE SHEEP. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers . . . 11 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD: the GOOD shepherd giveth his life for the SHEEP. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 14 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD, and know my sheep, and am known of mine . . .” John 10:1-18. 

“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that GREAT SHEPHERD of the SHEEP, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” Hebrews 13:20-21. 

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

“And he GAVE some, APOSTLES; and some, PROPHETS; and some, EVANGELISTS; and some, PASTORS and TEACHERS; 12 for the PERFECTING (MATURING, EQUIPPING) of the saints, for the WORK of the ministry, for the EDIFYING of the body of Christ: 13 till we all come in the UNITY of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a PERFECT (MATURED) man, unto THE MEASURE of the STATURE of the FULNESS of Christ: 14 that we henceforth be NO MORE children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 but SPEAKING the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 from whom the WHOLE body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the EFFECTUAL working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the EDIFYING of itself in love” Ephesians 4:11-16 (Emphasis Mine). 

“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; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof” Isaiah 44:24-26. 

“There was a man SENT from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a WITNESS, TO BEAR WITNESS OF THE LIGHT, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world . . . 15 John bare WITNESS of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. 18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him . . .” John 1:1-36. 

“And he called unto him the twelve, and began to SEND them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits; 8 and commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse: 9 but be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats. 10 And he SAID unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place. 11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city. 12 And they went out, and preached that men should repent. 13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them” Mark 6:7-13. 

Further Scriptural Reading: Psalms 23.  

SUMMARY 

This message is a strong, sobering teaching and charge on PASTORAL MINISTRY — IT’S NOT A GAME: IT’S A SHEPHERD AND SHEPHERDING MINISTERIAL CALLING. 

  1. THE CORE TRUTH: CALLED OR NOT CALLED
    Pastoral Ministry is not an office position, title, or career. It is a set MINISTERIAL CALLING from God — a SHEPHERD and SHEPHERDING responsibility with accountability to Christ Numbers 27:15-17. 

You are either CALLED or NOT. 

THE CALLED = MESSENGERS. Every messenger is given a SPECIFIC and SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT with a MESSAGE to FEED THE FLOCKS — God’s own Heritage — with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING TOWARD God and His Christ, not toward man Jeremiah 3:15; John 17:3; Acts 20:20-21. 

THE NOT CALLED = HIRELINGS. John 10:8, 12-13. They have no message from God. Their work is self-indulgence, extortion, egotism, and men-applause under demonic influence. This produces adulteration, schism, robbery, falsehood, confusion Philippians 1:15-18; 2 Timothy 3:1-9. 

  1. WHAT A TRUE SHEPHERD DOES

A true Pastor is principled with responsibility and accountability for the GLORY and PRAISE of God Revelation 4:11. 
His Assignment: 

  • FEED the flock with Knowledge and Understanding, without sentiment, prejudice or dissimulation Jeremiah 3:15; 1 Peter 5:2 
  • LEAD them out and bring them in Numbers 27:17 — healthy, purposeful leadership 
  • NOT boss or domineer people 1 Peter 5:3 
  • NOT for filthy lucre, but with a ready mind 1 Peter 5:2 
  • BE AN ENSAMPLE to the flock 1 Peter 5:3 
  • BE DILIGENT to know the state of the flocks Proverbs 27:23 

The goal: Perfecting the saints, work of ministry, edifying the body until we come to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ Ephesians 4:11-16. 

  1. THE PATTERN: SENT BY GOD

You must be SENT by God like John the Baptist John 1:6-7 and the 12 Disciples Mark 6:7-13. 
God calls, sends, keeps, protects and defends His own. 
Sending can be to a person, group, generation, community, or dispensation. 
You must know the definition of your calling and sending before you step, because obedience demands warfare and uncertainty. Don’t act out of liking “ministerial outfits.” 

Christ is THE GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11,14 and THE CHIEF SHEPHERD who will reward 1 Peter 5:4. THE GREAT SHEPHERD who works in us Hebrews 13:20-21. 

  1. THE DANGER OF FALSE SHEPHERDS

Self-made, self-called pastors bring: fables, men’s philosophy, vain jangling, denominational creeds, man-made traditions that make God’s Word of no effect 1 Timothy 1:3-7; Colossians 2:8; Mark 7:13. 
They are thieves and robbers who flee when the wolf comes John 10:12-13. 

 CALL TO ACTION 

FOR THOSE CALLED: 

  1. EXAMINE YOUR CALLING: Are you sent by God or are you self-sent? Pause. SELAH. Know your assignment before you move. 
  2. FEED THE FLOCK: Go back to the Word. Preach repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ Acts 20:21. Give knowledge and understanding, not fables. 
  3. SHEPHERD WILLINGLY: Lead without domination. Serve without seeking filthy lucre. Be an example. God will confirm the word of His servant Isaiah 44:26. 

FOR THE FLOCK/GOD’S PEOPLE: 

  1. DISCERN: Know the voice of the Good Shepherd and flee from strangers John 10:4-5. Test every ministry by the Word. \
  2. PRAY: Ask God to GIVE YOU PASTORS ACCORDING TO HIS HEART Jeremiah 3:15 who will feed you and so you won’t be lacking. 

FOR ALL: 
STOP TREATING MINISTRY LIKE A GAME. It is blood-bought, covenant responsibility. Let us all pursue the unity of faith and maturity in Christ Ephesians 4:13. Amen.

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 

June 24, 2026 By Pastor Chukie 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 

June 24, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

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. 

STOP COMPLAINING and PROCRASTINATING over your WHATEVER; 
and stop the piling up of that Mountain, Valley, Crooked Road, and Rough Places in pains. 

You can change that unpleasant WORLD’S atmosphere by PRAYER in grace — For God HEARS and ANSWERS Prayers. 

And PRAYER — It’s more a FELLOWSHIP — to enhance and influence our RELATIONSHIP with God. 
And it’s the COMMUNION to bring CHANGE for the good and goodness of our WORLD’S unpleasant circumstances and situations, as we do LIFE and GODLINESS in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

Therefore, give the act of PRAYER a GO today — even now, 
for PRAYER — CHANGES YOU and CHANGES THINGS that are about you. 
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. 
Psalms 65:2 — “O thou that HEAREST PRAYER, unto thee shall ALL FLESH come”  

KEY POINTS: 

  1. GOD HEARS AND ANSWERS
    God is the One who HEARS PRAYER Psalms 65:2.
    Jeremiah 33:3 — “CALL unto me, and I will ANSWER thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” 
    Hebrews 4:16 — We can COME BOLDLY UNTO THE THRONE OF GRACE to obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. 
    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. 
  1. STOP PROCRASTINATING — GIVE PRAYER A GO TODAY
    Stop complaining and procrastinating over your WHATEVER.
    You can change the unpleasant atmosphere of your world by PRAYER in grace. 
    Therefore, give the act of PRAYER a GO today — even now. 
    For your wellbeing, for your situation, for your world — PRAY and be BLESSED in the now. Amen. 

CALL TO ACTION: 

  • Stop Complaining — Complaining builds mountains. Prayer moves them. 
  • Pursue Fellowship — Go to God not just for things, but for relationship. 
  • Pray Boldly — Come to the throne of grace. God hears and answers. 
  • Pray Persistently — Like Elijah. Your prayer is powerful and effective. 
  • Expect Transformation — Prayer will change you first, then it will change your world. 

Final Word: 

The world’s atmosphere changes on its knees. Don’t wait. Don’t procrastinate. PRAYER WORKS. PRAYER PAYS. GOD HEARS AND ANSWERS PRAYER.

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD FOR HUMAN EMANCIPATION

June 24, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD FOR HUMAN EMANCIPATION: IT’S OUR GLOBAL AND INESCAPABLE SUPREME TASK! 

“For though I PREACH THE GOSPEL, I have NOTHING TO GLORY of: for NECESSITY is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I PREACH NOT THE GOSPEL! 17 For if I do this thing WILLINGLY, I have a REWARD: but if AGAINST my will, a DISPENSATION of THE GOSPEL is COMMITTED unto me” 1 Corinthians 9:16-17. 

WHY do people get so worried that in the existence and presence of the Church — the embassy and ambassador of God for human and world redemption — that the world is still going crazy in stupidity and foolishness, and in every bad taste of trajectory with wars, hunger, distortion, confusion, and unstable governments and governance? 

The answer is simply this: for all the unimaginable problems in the world, all that the world does hear and see today is nothing but RELIGION and DENOMINATION and DOCTRINAL sectarianism, sentiments, prejudice, and dissimulation. 

Unlike the early Church Disciples and Apostles of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, who PREACHED THE GOSPEL and were acclaimed as people who turned their world inside out or upside down by the GOSPEL they proclaimed — and who were set to die for the cause and course. 

“. . . 6 And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have TURNED THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN ARE COME hither also . . .” Acts 17:1-7 

“Now when they saw the BOLDNESS of Peter and John, and PERCEIVED that they were UNLEARNED and IGNORANT men, they marvelled; and they took KNOWLEDGE of them, that they had BEEN with Jesus. 14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it” Acts 4:13. 

FOR A WORLD WITHOUT THE GOSPEL in any phase and dispensation, will indicate all the worries of today and such like that we see. 

For only by THE GOSPEL can the world experience EMANCIPATION from all known and unknown bondages, in order to have faith toward God’s SALVATION in Christ Jesus, and to receive the REVELATION by faith to faith, of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS [righteous stand] for the complete liberation of all. 
Romans 1:16-17; Romans 5:1-2; Acts 20:20-21 

The consummation of God’s plan for man’s salvation with religion, denomination, and doctrinal sect DOGMAS will not emancipate anyone, no matter how much investment and resources. Instead, it will get people enslaved in the DOGMAS and keep them devoted in commitment and dedication to such-like sectarianism of belief, as we see across the board. 

Religiously denominationalised and doctrinal “GOSPEL” are very destructive and keep people in perpetual subjection, bondages, and dogmas as long as it is there. 

That’s why Apostle Paul warned the Galatian Church of their shift from the Gospel that brought them genuine salvation into “ANOTHER GOSPEL” Galatians 1:6-9. 

“I marvel that ye are so soon REMOVED from him that CALLED you into the grace of Christ unto ANOTHER GOSPEL: 7 which is NOT ANOTHER; but there be SOME that TROUBLE you, and would PERVERT THE GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though WE, or AN ANGEL from heaven, PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man PREACH any OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have RECEIVED, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9. 

For the GOSPEL is not a religion, denomination and doctrine but the POWER and WISDOM of God for all human salvation irrespective of gender, colour, tongue and geographical location and inclinations. [Acts 17:24-30; Revelation 5:9-10; Romans 1:16-17; Romans 3:26-29]. 

THE GOSPEL has been before the law, the psalms, and the prophets; 
and it answered those who are outbound and out-bent by the law, psalms, and prophets as the basis and ground of faith toward God and His Christ — rather than the gospel, which is Christ, and expressed in the WORD, of which He is the WORD. 
John 1:1-5, 14; 1 John 5:7 

God PREACHED THE GOSPEL to Father Abraham, through whom the whole nation and families of the earth shall be BLESSED — long before the law, the psalms, the prophets, and others came into being. 
Galatians 3:8 

Meaning also, long before religion, denomination, and doctrine were crafted and shaped by men for all to be enslaved into as a sect.  

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the HEATHEN through faith, PREACHED BEFORE THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith are BLESSED with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9 [2 Corinthians 5:17-21]. 

“Now the Lord had SAID unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2 and I will make of thee a GREAT NATION, and I will BLESS thee, and make thy name great; AND THOU SHALT BE A BLESSING: 3 and I will BLESS them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall ALL FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3. 

I am emboldened to say today, that any FOUNDATION that’s not centered on the GOSPEL wherein God’s power and wisdom are ascertained for human SALVATION and RIGHTEOUSNESS, leads to SELF, HYPE and APPLAUD and ENTITLEMENTS of men and not after God and His Christ Jesus, for the good of all mankind in Christ Jesus stead. [1 Corinthians 1:18-24]. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For though I PREACH THE GOSPEL, I have NOTHING TO GLORY of: for NECESSITY is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I PREACH NOT THE GOSPEL! 17 For if I do this thing WILLINGLY, I have a REWARD: but if AGAINST my will, a DISPENSATION of THE GOSPEL is COMMITTED unto me” 1 Corinthians 9:16-17. 

“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. 

“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. 

“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 15:20-21. 

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the defence of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18. 

“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. 

“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 every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming THE WORD with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:15-20. 

“But ye shall receive POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:8. 

“. . . 4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city” Acts 8:1-8. 

SUMMARY: 

The message teaches us that the world’s problems will not be solved by RELIGION, DENOMINATION, or DOCTRINE. Only THE GOSPEL — the Power and Wisdom of God — can emancipate humanity from all bondage, reveal God’s Righteousness, and bring true salvation. Preaching the Gospel is not optional. It is a NECESSITY, a DISPENSATION committed to the Church, and our supreme global task. 
1 Corinthians 9:16 — “woe is unto me, if I PREACH NOT THE GOSPEL!” 
Romans 1:16 — “For I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION” 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. WHY THE WORLD IS STILL IN CHAOS DESPITE THE CHURCH 
    The Church is God’s embassy and ambassador for world redemption. Yet the world is still full of wars, hunger, confusion, and unstable governance. 
    Why? Because what the world sees today is not THE GOSPEL, but RELIGION, DENOMINATION, and DOCTRINAL SECTARIANISM — sentiments, prejudice, and dissimulation. 
    Unlike the early Church Disciples and Apostles who PREACHED THE GOSPEL and “TURNED THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN” Acts 17:6. They were men who had “BEEN WITH JESUS” Acts 4:13 and were willing to die for the cause. 
  1. THE GOSPEL IS THE ONLY MEANS OF EMANCIPATION
    FOR A WORLD WITHOUT THE GOSPEL, all the worries we see today will continue. 
    Only by THE GOSPEL can the world experience EMANCIPATION from all known and unknown bondages. 
    It produces FAITH toward God’s SALVATION in Christ Jesus and the REVELATION by faith to faith of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS [righteous stand] for complete liberation Romans 1:16-17; Romans 5:1-2. 

Religion, denomination, and doctrinal DOGMAS cannot emancipate. No matter the investment, they only enslave people in commitment to sectarian belief. 
A religiously denominationalised “gospel” keeps people in perpetual subjection and bondage. 
That’s why Paul warned the Galatians against shifting to “ANOTHER GOSPEL” Galatians 1:6-9 — “let him be ACCURSED.” 

  1. THE GOSPEL IS NOT RELIGION — IT IS CHRIST, THE POWER AND WISDOM OF GOD
    The Gospel is not a religion, denomination, or doctrine. 
    It is THE POWER and WISDOM of God for all human salvation — irrespective of gender, colour, tongue, or location 1 Corinthians 1:18-24; Acts 17:24-30; Revelation 5:9-10. 

THE GOSPEL PRECEDED THE LAW, PSALMS, AND PROPHETS. 
It answered those who were “outbound and out-bent” by the law. The Gospel IS CHRIST, expressed in the WORD, of which He is the WORD John 1:1-5, 14. 

GOD PREACHED THE GOSPEL TO ABRAHAM Galatians 3:8 — “In thee shall ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED” Genesis 12:1-3, long before religion, denomination, and doctrine were crafted by men to enslave. 
Galatians 3:6-9 — Those of faith are children of Abraham and are BLESSED with him. 

  1. PREACHING THE GOSPEL IS A NECESSITY AND A DISPENSATION 
    1 Corinthians 9:16-17 — Paul said preaching the Gospel is a NECESSITY laid on him. To preach willingly brings REWARD. To refuse is disobedience to a DISPENSATION COMMITTED to him. 

The Great Commission: 
Matthew 24:14 — The Gospel of the Kingdom must be preached in all the world as a witness. 
Matthew 28:18-20 — GO and TEACH all nations. 
Mark 16:15-20 — PREACH THE GOSPEL to every creature. The Lord will confirm the Word with signs. 
Acts 1:8 — You shall receive POWER to be WITNESSES to the uttermost part of the earth. 
Romans 10:14-17 — How shall they believe without a preacher? FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God. 

  1. THE WARNING: PREACH THE TRUE GOSPEL, NOT ANOTHER 
    Some preach Christ out of ENVY, STRIFE, CONTENTION, and PRETENCE Philippians 1:15-18. 
    But the true Gospel must be preached in TRUTH and LOVE for the defence of the Gospel. 
    Any foundation not centred on the Gospel leads to SELF, HYPE, APPLAUD, and ENTITLEMENTS of men, not after God and Christ 1 Corinthians 1:18-24. 
  1. THE RESULT OF GOSPEL PREACHING 
    Acts 8:1-8 — When Philip preached Christ, there was great joy in the city. Demons came out, the sick were healed. 
    The Gospel brings liberation, joy, and the manifestation of God’s power. 

CALL TO ACTION: 

THIS IS OUR GLOBAL AND INESCAPABLE SUPREME TASK 

  • Preach THE GOSPEL, not religion — Let go of sectarianism, dogma, and denominational hype. 
  • Be willing to die for the cause — Like the early Apostles who turned the world upside down. 
  • Go to where Christ has not been named — Romans 15:20-21. Build on the foundation of Christ. 
  • Let faith work — Preach so people can HEAR, BELIEVE, and be SAVED Romans 10:17. 
  • Guard the Gospel — Reject “another gospel.” Christ crucified is the Power of God unto salvation. 

Final Word: 

The world is not waiting for another denomination. The world is waiting for THE GOSPEL. It is the Power of God. It is our NECESSITY. It is our TASK. And until it is preached, the world remains in bondage.

WHILE WAITING – SERVE 

June 23, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WHILE WAITING – SERVE: THE KINGDOM IS ABOUT SERVING AND NOT LORDSHIP! 

“Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. 18 Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: SO HE THAT WAITETH ON HIS MASTER SHALL BE HONOURED. 19 As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man” Proverbs 27:17-19. 

IF YOU DESIRE to be honoured as the greatest and chiefest in the Kingdom, set your heart to SERVE. 

So, while waiting upon the Lord for whatever, keep the spirit of service alive. 

And while you serve, you need to serve in love and through love to whosoever, irrespective, and without sentiments, prejudice, and dissimulation. 

For the faith to function while waiting is only activated and sustained through love. 

And love is active and not passive, and its presence is known through service or serving. 

“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE . . . 13 For you, brethren, have been CALLED to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but THROUGH LOVE SERVE one another” Galatians 5:6, 13/NKJV.  

IN THE KINGDOM, the way UP is DOWN, while in the world it’s UP — oppressing others instead of serving. 

Anyone who desires honour and to be exalted by the Lord God should be found humbled in serving and not in lordship [James 4:5-10; James 5:7-11; 1 Peter 5:5-6]. 

And while waiting to renew, refresh, rejuvenate, rekindle, and energise your strength in the Lord as the eagle, be found serving and not idling away precious time of service for irrelevant things [Isaiah 40:28-31]. 

And if you desire to lead, the hallmark is serving. Are you prepared to serve? 

You are asking God and WAITING on Him to endow you with such huge BLESSEDNESS of the Kingdom — is it that you intend to SERVE? 

God watches and sees through hearts to know the motives and context of a thing — if it serves and suffices the end goal of His Kingdom causes, or if it’s for your selfishness, self-centredness, pride and arrogance and show-off, rather than to use it to serve others as a vessel of honour. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!  

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. 18 Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: SO HE THAT WAITETH ON HIS MASTER SHALL BE HONOURED. 19 As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man” Proverbs 27:17-19. 

“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE . . . 13 For you, brethren, have been CALLED to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but THROUGH LOVE SERVE one another” Galatians 5:6, 13/NKJV. 

“And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ. 11 But he who is GREATEST among you shall be your SERVANT. 12 And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted” Matthew 23:10-12/NKJV. 

“And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles EXERCISE LORDSHIP over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26 But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is GREATEST among you, let him be as the YOUNGER, and he who GOVERNS as he who SERVES. 27 For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who SERVES” Luke 22:25-27/NKJV. 

“Have you not known? 

Have you not heard? 

The everlasting God, the Lord, 

The Creator of the ends of the earth, 

Neither faints nor is weary. 

His understanding is unsearchable. 

29 He gives power to the weak, 

And to those who have no might He increases strength. 

30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, 

And the young men shall utterly fall, 

31 But those who WAIT on the Lord 

Shall RENEW their strength; 

They shall mount up with wings like eagles, 

They shall run and not be weary, 

They shall walk and not faint” Isaiah 40:28-31/NKJV. 

SUMMARY: 

In the Kingdom of God, greatness is not achieved by position, power, or waiting idly. It is achieved by SERVING in love while you WAIT on the Lord. The way UP in the Kingdom is DOWN through humility and service. 
Proverbs 27:18 — “SO HE THAT WAITETH ON HIS MASTER SHALL BE HONOURED.” 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. THE KINGDOM PRINCIPLE: SERVE TO BE HONOURED
    If youdesire to be honoured as the greatest and chiefest in the Kingdom, set your heart to SERVE. 
    Matthew 23:11-12 — “he who is GREATEST among you shall be your SERVANT… he who humbles himself will be exalted” 
    Luke 22:25-27 — kings of the world exercise lordship, but in the Kingdom, the greatest must be as the one who SERVES. 
    In the world the way UP is by oppressing. In the Kingdom the way UP is DOWN through service.  
  1. WHILE WAITING — KEEP THE SPIRIT OF SERVICE ALIVE
    Waiting on God is not idleness. It is active.
    Isaiah 40:28-31 — Those who WAIT on the Lord shall RENEW their strength like eagles. 
    While you wait to be refreshed, renewed, and energised, be found serving and not wasting time on irrelevant things. 
    Honour comes to those who serve their Master while waiting. Proverbs 27:18 
  1. SERVICE MUST BE IN LOVE
    Faith while waiting is activated and sustained through LOVE.
    Galatians 5:6 — “FAITH WORKING THROUGH LOVE” 
    Galatians 5:13 — “THROUGH LOVE SERVE one another” 
    Love is active, not passive. Its presence is proven through service. 
    Serve whosoever, irrespective, without sentiments, prejudice, or dissimulation. 
  1. GOD EXAMINES MOTIVE, NOT JUST ACTIVITY
    You are asking God and WAITING on Him for BLESSEDNESS.
    The question is: is it that you intend to SERVE? 
    God sees the heart. He knows if your desire is for His Kingdom causes, or for selfishness, self-centredness, pride, arrogance, and show-off. 
    He wants vessels of honour who will use His blessing to serve others.  
  1. LEADERSHIP = SERVANTHOOD
    If youdesire to lead, the hallmark is serving. 
    INFORMED LEADERS serve with humility. RULERS lord it over people. 
    James 4:5-10; 1 Peter 5:5-6 — Humble yourself under God and He will exalt you. 
  1. IRON SHARPENS IRON
    Proverbs 27:17-19 — As iron sharpens iron and face answers face in water, so service sharpens us and reveals the heart of man to man.
    Serving others refines us while we wait.  

CALL TO ACTION: 

  • While Waiting: Serve — Don’t idle. Use your waiting season to serve people in love. 
  • Reject Lordship, Embrace Servanthood — Greatness in the Kingdom is measured by how low you are willing to go to serve. 
  • Check Your Motive — Are you seeking God’s blessing to serve, or to be served? God honours servants, not those seeking lordship. 
  • Let Faith Work Through Love — Your faith is proven by your service. 

Final Word: 

The Kingdom rewards servants, not lords. While you WAIT on God for renewal and BLESSEDNESS, SERVE. That is how you are sharpened, honoured, and prepared for greater.
