WELCOME TO MONTH MAY 2023: THE MONTH OF HARNESSING “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God BLESSED THEM, and God said unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH the earth, and SUBDUE it: and have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28.

“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.

“. . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God IMPUTETH righteousness without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9 Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the CIRCUMCISION only, or upon the UNCIRCUMCISION also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS. 10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in CIRCUMCISION, or in UNCIRCUMCISION? Not in CIRCUMCISION, but in UNCIRCUMCISION. 11 And he received the SIGN OF CIRCUMCISION, A SEAL OF THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of the FAITH which he had yet being UNCIRCUMCISED: that he might be the FATHER OF ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE, though they be NOT CIRCUMCISED; that RIGHTEOUSNESS might be IMPUTED unto them also: 12 and the father of CIRCUMCISION to them who ARE NOT of the CIRCUMCISION only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet UNCIRCUMCISED . . .” Romans 4:1-25.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love” Ephesians 1:3-4.

“THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, it MAKETH RICH, and he ADDETH NO SORROW WITH IT” Proverbs 10:22.

“Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE the PROMISE of the Spirit through FAITH” Galatians 3:13-14.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12.

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; knowing that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT A BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:8-9.

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY

By Leave a Comment

THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY: KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING THE ESSENCE!

ESSENCE is the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something abstract, which determines its character. Hence the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING of the ESSENCE of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY”, is of the same imperative if we are to appropriate into reality our rights and privileges in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“The FEAR (REVERENTIAL FEAR) of the Lord is the beginning of WISDOM: and the KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY is understanding” Proverbs 9:10 (Emphasis Mine).

For I am yet to find one Believer in Christ Jesus, who does not wants to ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE to see that everything about their Faith in Christ Jesus, is TANGIBLE, REACHABLE and LIVEABLE. Unfortunately not all are experiencing the FULLNESS of Christ Jesus stead in their day to day living, as expected IN THE GRACE wherein we STAND as in the Holy Writ.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and REJOICE IN HOPE of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

In ESSENCE, actualising our REDEMPTION REALITY in Christ Jesus, can only be made possible through firstly – KNOWLEDGE – that is, by the ACKNOWLEDGING; and secondly it’s with the UNDERSTANDING of one’s FAITH in Christ Jesus – being COMMUNICATED to matters of Life and Godly Living as it’s written in the Holy Writ:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).

And until you can ACTUALISE and APPROPRIATE the ESSENCE of REDEMPTION of Christ Jesus in and for you, the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH in Christ Jesus will always be a – struggle, strange, burdensome, irksome and taskmaster like. It’s for this lack of the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” that there are many MERE – ‘AMEN’, HALLELUJAH’ ‘I RECEIVE’ and ‘BLESS ME’ – Christians around despite their long standing efforts in the Churches of Christ. This OUGHT not to be so in Christ Jesus and for all that Christ Jesus is to us in God.

I am emboldened to say that you can APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a personal knowledge and understanding, of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in your redemption in Christ Jesus, of all that God has – DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and He’s DOING THROUGH YOU, supposedly and indeed.

Here are few ESSENCE to enable you see a gracious reasons to earnestly crave and seek for THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY through ACKNOWLEDGING and UNDERSTANDING of all that God deed for you in Christ Jesus; this is to help you APPROPRIATE and ENACT with ease your REDEMPTION into reality and as a POSSESSION. It is the KNOWING AND UNDERSTANDING of these but not limited craving is what I want you to explore:

** That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the KNOWLEDGE of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

** That KNOWLEDGE will deliver from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29

** That your dominion in life is a product of your KNOWLEDGE – Daniel 11:32.

** That a man’s value for KNOWLEDGE determines his ultimate worth – Isaiah 33:6.

** That the grace that determines our status is a function of KNOWLEDGE – 2 Peter 1:2.

** That when you run after KNOWLEDGE, goodness and mercy runs after you – Proverbs 1:22, 29-33.

** That People who hate KNOWLEDGE can’t secure heaven’s favour – Proverbs 13:15; Hosea 4:6; Isaiah 5:13-15.

** That age is not equal to KNOWLEDGE, and should not be taken for KNOWLEDGE – Job. 32:7-9.

** That if your THOUGHTS are not updated, your life will be outdated – Proverbs 24:5.

** That when you add a little MORE knowledge to your life daily, you live a little better – Proverbs 4:18.

** That whatever KNOWLEDGE you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.

** That studying for KNOWLEDGE is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.

** That the only authentic proof of KNOWLEDGE is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.

** That when you don’t grow in the spirit of KNOWLEDGE, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.

** That those who seek to KNOW men, don’t know God; when you seek to KNOW God, people will seek to KNOW you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.

** That your KNOWLEDGE of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.

** And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured KNOWLEDGE – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

These writ above though not limited, indicate the essence of KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY” in order to access the FULNESS of Him. Hence I say, Don’t SETTLE and BECOME a believer in Christ Jesus, who is envelope just with – ‘BLESS ME’, ‘HALLELUJAH’, ‘I RECEIVE’, ‘AMEN’ and such like – seek after KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of “THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY ONE” for your ESSENCE and FULNESS.

“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 . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING OF ABRAHAM might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the PROMISE of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by FAITH in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither JEW NOR GREEK, there is neither BOND NOR FREE, there is neither MALE NOR FEMALE: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“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.

“Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM” Ephesians 1:15-17.

“But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10 and have put on the new man, which is RENEWED IN KNOWLEDGE after the image of him that created him: 11 where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all” Colossians 3:8-11.

“Who is a wise man and ENDUED WITH KNOWLEDGE among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom” James 3:13

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM that hath called us to glory and virtue” 2 Peter 1:1-3.

“But GROW in grace, and IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen” 2 Peter 3:18

“My people are DESTROYED for lack of KNOWLEDGE: because thou hast REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6.

“. . . 13 Therefore my people are gone into CAPTIVITY, because they have no KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. 14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. 15 And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: 16 but the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness” Isaiah 5:11-16.

In ancient times embers were kept slowly burning so that they could be fanned into flames when a fire was needed. And we all needs fire in our bones to set us ablaze for the next levels in our lives.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“That is why I remind you to fan into flame the gracious gift of God, [that inner fire—the special endowment] which is in you through the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 2:6-7.

LIVING BY THE HIGHER LAW: THE SPIRIT OF LIFE – GIVES FREEDOM AND EMPOWERS VICTORY IN LIFE AND GRACE!

In life, there’s no one single educational system in the world that is designed to educate people to tell lies or cheat, or run down government or any of the  societal vices, or SICKNESS, DISEASES and EVILS and WICKEDNESS we find in community and nations today.

However, there’s a LAW OF NATURE in doing life; it’s the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH, which is operating knowingly or unknowingly on earth in every phase of doing life; and everyone by virtue of being born on earth found themselves to exhibits one or more of the traces of this law in their human’s nature and are affected directly or indirectly by the consequence of its operations.

But there’s another law, the LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS – this LAW gives the LEVERAGE over the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH. SIN being the cause effect for SICKNESS, POVERTY AND SPIRITUAL DEATH. And SPIRITUAL DEATH results to the PHYSICAL DEATH. Invariably will some to eternal death knowingly and unknowingly.

Hence the HIGHER LAW, is the LAW to enables one live in DOMINION over All bondages which are the consequence effect of SIN NATURE: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH. Therefore, it’s imperative that you CONNECT to the HIGHER LAW today, and live FREE in Christ for VIRTUE and GLORY.

I ourge you therefore in Christ Jesus stead, to STRIVE LAWFULLY on the HIGHER LAW in order to WIN in life, live in DOMINION and VICTORY and to be FULFILLED in it all effortless and without sweat in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS.

LIVING BY THE HIGHER LAW – THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS – SETS ONE FREE – AND KEEPS ONE IN THE REALM OF DOMINION.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For the LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE in Christ Jesus hath MADE ME FREE from the LAW OF SIN AND DEATH” Romans 8:2.

“And if a man also STRIVE FOR MASTERIES, yet is he not crowned, except he STRIVE LAWFULLY”  2 Timothy 2:5.

WELCOME TO THE DAWN OF MONTH MAY 2021

WELCOME TO THE DAWN OF MONTH MAY 2021: MONTH OF “FRUITFULNESS & MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT”!

Month MAY – “Month Of Harnessing The CHARISMA and CHARACTER Of The Holy Spirit For Your PERFECTION –  Wholeness, Completeness, Maturity and Fulness In Christ Jesus Stead”

Month MAY is the FIFTH month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars and the THIRD of seven months to have a length of 31 days. Month May is a month of SPRING in the Northern Hemisphere and AUTUMN in the Southern Hemisphere. Month MAY, been the FIFTH month speaks of PERFECTION, just as the number 3, 7 and 9 has significance Scripturally and being of the number 5 of the year calendar, indicates an opportunity to stir up, harness and actualise in FULNESS, our REDEMPTION by the Holy Spirit that is GIVEN to us in this essence. Romans 5:5, 8; Romans 8:9-17; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

PERFECTION – which in essence speaks of  WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS – is of God. Actually, it is of the REALM OF REVELATION of the Spirit, which the writer of Hebrews Scripture exhorts and admonished every Believers in Christ Jesus to endeavour to enter into such realm, in order to manifest, operate and actualise God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in REDEMPTION. It is a REALM which in essence, will bring us to the place wherein we can be able to escape religious and traditional dogmas, man-made belief, doctrinal creeds and by-laws that are of bondages and such like – Matthew 5:43-48; Hebrews 6:1-9; 2 Corinthians 7:1. etc.

For when Jesus DESCENDED and ASCENDED up on high afterwards, He led captivity captive and RECEIVED gifts – (spiritual endowment) and GAVE these gifts to men; this is for their enablement to be His ambassador and representative on His behalf, for their self-esteem and self-worth, for God’s Kingdom causes and for the good of humanity. 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

These spiritual ENDOWMENTS and ENABLEMENT are summed up as CHARISMA and CHARACTER to fulfil PURPOSE meaningfully. Their essence is to harness the Believer’s by the Holy Spirit toward PERFECTION – meaning WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS, in Christ Jesus Stead.

It must be noted that a mere spiritual CHARISMA without corresponding CHARACTER breeds arrogance, pride, rudeness and possibly false success in disguise; and a mere spiritual CHARACTER without CHARISMA breeds a  form of religion that is dogmatic, traditionalistic, static – (no creative, innovative, initiative and exploring) and without inspiration, revelation and empowerment which is of the Holy Spirit, in Christ Jesus stead.

And by the acts of the Holy Spirit, one can possibly acquire the synergy of FRUITFULNESS and MATURITY in Christ Jesus stead, as RECEIVED and GIVEN to us, when He ascended up on high to ENSURE and ASSURE our access to the blessed REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Him.

And FRUITFULNESS as a result of spiritual FRUIT and spiritual GIFTS are of the Holy Spirit; and MATURITY as a consequence of the ministerial GIFTS of the Holy Spirit, is in essence for our PERFECTION (WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS) as God’s people in His BLESSEDNESS.

I therefore pray today for your onward, upward and forward trajectory in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS; I pray also that by these endowment and enabling of God, which is of the blessed Holy Spirit will not be frustrated by any reason; but rather, that these enabling endowment that Christ Jesus RECEIVED and GAVE us, in order to be FRUITFUL in CHARACTER and MATURED in CHARISMA, will abound more and more in His grace and stead. Romans 5:1-2; Galatians 2:20-21.

I therefore WELCOME you on God’s behalf, to MONTH MAY – Month of FRUITFULNESS AND MATURITY IN THE SPIRIT – to harness your well-being, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING unto PERFECTION – WHOLENESS, COMPLETENESS, MATURITY and FULNESS.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore LEAVING THE PRINCIPLES of the doctrine of Christ, LET US GO on unto PERFECTION; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this will we do, if God permit . . .” Hebrews 6:1-9.

“Thou hast ASCENDED on high, thou hast LED CAPTIVITY CAPTIVE: thou hast RECEIVED GIFTS FOR MEN; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them” PSALMS 68:18.

“But unto EVERY ONE of us is GIVEN grace according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he LED CAPTIVITY CAPTIVE, AND GAVE GIFTS UNTO MEN. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he GAVE some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 for the PERFECTING 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 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 4:7-16.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing” REVELATION 5:9-12.

“But the Fruit Of The Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. 24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” GALATIANS 5:22-25.

“And I will GIVE you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding” JEREMIAH 3:15.

“. . . 2 Every branch in me that BEARETH NOT FRUIT he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he PURGETH it, that it may bring forth MORE FRUIT . . .  4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear FRUIT of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth MUCH FRUIT: for without me ye can do nothing . . . 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear MUCH FRUIT; so shall ye be my disciples . . . 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and BRING FORTH FRUIT, and that your FRUIT SHOULD REMAIN: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” JOHN 15:1-16.

“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, PERFECTING holiness in the fear of God” 2 Corinthians 7:1.

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21 I do not FRUSTRATE THE GRACE of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in VAIN” Galatians 2:20-21.

SCRIPTURAL READING IN CONTEXT: Galatians 5:22-25; John 15:1-16; 1 Corinthians 12:1-11; Ephesians 4:11-16; 1 Corinthians 12:12-31; Romans 12:3-8. Hebrews 6:1-9.

MONTH MAY 2023: THE MONTH OF HARNESSING “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” IN YOU IN CHRIST JESUS!

“THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, it maketh RICH, and He ADDETH NO SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.

The Month MAY is the FIFTH month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars and the THIRD of seven months to have a length of 31 days. Month May is a month of SPRING in the Northern Hemisphere and AUTUMN in the Southern Hemisphere. Month MAY, been the FIFTH month speaks of PERFECTION which is reckoned to BLESSEDNESS, just as the numbers of 3, 7 and 9 has significance Scripturally; and Month MAY, being of the number 5 of the year calendar, indicate an opportunity to stir up and harness graciously and gracefully, in order to actualise in FULNESS, “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” in our redemption, in Christ Jesus, by the Holy Spirit that is GIVEN to us in this essence. Romans 4:1-25; Romans 5:5, 8; Romans 8:9-17; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

The BLESSEDNESS of God is free of sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation (hypocrisy) to all irrespective. The BLESSEDNESS of God is PURE – it’s incorruptible and priceless. Philippians 4:8; Proverbs 10:22; Matthew 6:19-23.

To HARNESS in the context of the theme “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” means to take hold in grace, of the redemption we’ve received of God in Christ Jesus, toward fulfilling meaningfully, our God’s given plan, purpose and pursuit, in our path of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Proverbs 4:18-23; Psalms 16:11.

And “THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD” indicate the state (realm, sphere, position) of being BLESSED – with God’s divine favour – a state of being divinely fulfilling and having a meaningful happiness that’s indescribable and unimaginable and incomprehensible in Christ Jesus stead. Romans 4:5-10 *(vs 6, 9); 2 Corinthians 5:19 (17-21); Ephesians 1:3-4, 20; Ephesians 2:6-8.

And the BLESSING of THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD, is about living within the PURPOSE and POWER of God in REDEMPTION which is not of the modane things as car, money, gold, precious stones, property, qualification, status and such like, though it makes them come into reality when fully known and understood in essence. The Blessing of God is that God’s enabling endowments that cause the desired needed necessity of life as – car, money, gold, precious stones, property, qualification, status and such like – to become a reality and materialises in essence to be tangible, reachable, loveable and acceptable. Proverbs 10:25; Ephesians 1:3; Matthew 6:19-21.

It’s my earnest PRAYERS that in this month, you come to know and understand THE BLESSEDNESS OF GOD in you, so that you can live meaningfully and purposefully in God’s enabling grace in Christ Jesus, with ease and comfort as God intended for you in doing life and living godly.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God BLESSED THEM, and God said unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH the earth, and SUBDUE it: and have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28.

“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.

“. . . 6 Even as David also describeth the BLESSEDNESS of the man, unto whom God IMPUTETH righteousness without works, 7 saying, BLESSED are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. 8 BLESSED is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. 9 Cometh this BLESSEDNESS then upon the CIRCUMCISION only, or upon the UNCIRCUMCISION also? for we say that FAITH was RECKONED to Abraham for RIGHTEOUSNESS. 10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in CIRCUMCISION, or in UNCIRCUMCISION? Not in CIRCUMCISION, but in UNCIRCUMCISION. 11 And he received the SIGN OF CIRCUMCISION, A SEAL OF THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of the FAITH which he had yet being UNCIRCUMCISED: that he might be the FATHER OF ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE, though they be NOT CIRCUMCISED; that RIGHTEOUSNESS might be IMPUTED unto them also: 12 and the father of CIRCUMCISION to them who ARE NOT of the CIRCUMCISION only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet UNCIRCUMCISED . . .” Romans 4:1-25.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ: 4 according as he hath CHOSEN us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love” Ephesians 1:3-4.

“THE BLESSING OF THE LORD, it MAKETH RICH, and he ADDETH NO SORROW WITH IT” Proverbs 10:22.

“Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE the PROMISE of the Spirit through FAITH” Galatians 3:13-14.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12.

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; knowing that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT A BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:8-9.

DOMINION IN REDEMPTION IS BEYOND WALLS

By Leave a Comment

DOMINION IN REDEMPTION IS BEYOND WALLS: REDEMPTION – THE UNIFYING BOND OF THE JEWS AND THE GENTILES (GREEKS) IN BECOMING – THE CHURCH OF GOD!

“Give none offence, NEITHER to the JEWS, nor to the GENTILES, nor to the CHURCH of GOD” 1 Corinthians 10:32.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence TOWARD God, and TOWARD men” Acts 24:16.

The scriptures of the New Testament are grossly fielded with matters of the Jews and Gentiles – which sometimes the context of the Gentile in reference is applicable to the Greeks indicating they are same.

People in the New Testament CONTEXT are classified into two and the third. The first are THE JEWS, who are the custodian of the law under Moses and depicted as the natural offspring of Abraham, while the second is THE GENTILES, often depict as the GREEK, which together are summed to represent all people (unbelievers) irrespective, who are not Jews and having no law of God as the natural Jews, thereby are seen to reason in their ways outside the law or commandments of God as given through Moses with the BLESSEDNESS of Abraham. (Ephesians 2:1-22; Philippians 3:1-16; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29; 1 Corinthians 10:32-33; Romans 2:17-29).

Most times in the scriptural context, the natural JEWS are classed as those of the CIRCUMCISION, while the GENTILES are classed as the UNCIRCUMCISION. When either of the Jews – the CIRCUMCISION and the Gentiles – UNCIRCUMCISION gets born again into Christ Jesus, they form the basis for the third called – The Church of God. It thus means that the Jews and Gentiles are UNIFIED and BONDED in Christ Jesus – in the REDEMPTION – the REDEMPTION of God in Christ Jesus stead, for all mankind irrespective. Hence, the once term Gentile and Jew are UNIFIED and BONDED by REDEMPTION and have now become together – the spiritual Jews, which CIRCUMCISION is of the HEART and not of the FLESH as written:

“For the name of God is blasphemed among the GENTILES through you, as it is written. 25 For CIRCUMCISION verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy CIRCUMCISION is made UNCIRCUMCISION. 26 Therefore if the UNCIRCUMCISION keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his UNCIRCUMCISION be counted for CIRCUMCISION? 27 And shall not UNCIRCUMCISION which is BY NATURE, if it FULFIL THE LAW, judge thee, who by the letter and CIRCUMCISION dost transgress the law? 28 For he is Not A Jew, which is one OUTWARDLY; neither is that CIRCUMCISION, which is OUTWARD in the FLESH: 29 but he is a JEW, which is one INWARDLY; and CIRCUMCISION is that of the HEART, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God” Romans 2:24-29.

And the redemption from and of the “JEWS” and the “Gentiles” to become ascribed as “THE CHURCH OF GOD” gives both to sing a common new sung instead their respective old sung of difference that gives no wholesome stands and access to God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. The song that binds together the redeemed from every kindred, tongue, people and nation as it’s written:

“And they SUNG A NEW SONG, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to OPEN THE SEALS thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of EVERY KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall REIGN on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

Today, the redeemed – born of God Jews and Gentiles that have been bonded to become the Church of God, can now together, without sentiments, prejudice, and dissimulation (hypocrisy), have a STAND by GRACE to ACCESS by FAITH and ENJOY their REDEMPTION RIGHTS and Privileges, in Christ Jesus. For “THE CHURCH OF GOD” that consist of both the REDEEMED Jews and Gentiles – is God’s physical enabling on earth that guarantees the ensuring of the rights and privileges into His BLESSEDNESS to ‘POSSESSING OUR POSSESSION’ in Christ Jesus stead. AMEN.

The CHURCH OF GOD, which is the CITY of God, the EMBASSY of God, the TEMPLE of God, the HOUSEHOLD of FAITH, the BODY of Christ, the AMBASSADOR of Christ and the MOUNT ZION and such like – is you, the redeemed (born of God) Jews and Gentiles. And knowingly and unknowingly, your being by redemption, is having the DNA of God in Christ Jesus to POSSESS God’s BLESSEDNESS, and in POSSESSING your Possessions as inheritance, in the kingdom of our God in Christ Jesus stead. For there’s an INHERITANCE for ALL in the kingdom as we soar and thrive in grace as Christ has made us BECOME in REDEMPTION both THE JEWS and THE GENTILES – THE CHURCH OF GOD.

In Possessing your Kingdom PRIVILEGED and RIGHTFUL possession in Christ Jesus, your best place to start, is to get along WITH – THE CHURCH OF GOD – the ASSEMBLY or INGATHERING of God’s precious and redeemed people. For as goes THE CHURCH OF GOD in a physical assembly – so goes YOU and THE NATION at large, otherwise it’s catastrophic when this order is overlooked and misappropriated for any selfish and disgruntled reasons. For in any ingathering the Holy Writ thus indicates the heavenly are equally present as it’s written:

“But ye are come unto MOUNT SION (Zion), and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the general ASSEMBLY and CHURCH of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 and to Jesus the MEDIATOR of the NEW COVENANT, and to the blood of sprinkling, that SPEAKETH better things than that of Abel” Hebrews 12:22-24 (Emphasis Mine).

For the above PRINCIPLE and UNDERSTANDING to ENSURE God’s BLESSEDNESS, you must as a matter of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY, endeavour to BELIEVE, BELONG in the local assembly Church of the Body of Christ Jesus, in order to BECOME a part to FUNCTION effectually and efficiently. There’s no room for a lone person outside the body that’s perfectly meant to be joined together – Ephesians 4:7-16. The reason been, the Church which is you and the Churches of Christ, which is the mount Zion of God – the Church of God, are assured of three things when this order of grace is followed accordingly – by coming together, for the ingathering. The principal order of grace enables one and all, to access and receive these but not limited:

* DELIVERANCE from all sorts (you name it).

* HOLINESS – God’s nature, accessible to all in order to obtain God’s grace and blessings.

* POSSESSING YOUR POSSESSIONS – all that Christ had obtained for you in REDEMPTION made Possible with the ease of His grace.

Your POSSIBILITIES can start now. However, envision yourself with a great start to possess your possessions in Christ Jesus by being in HIS CHURCH not as an OBSERVER – that is – but as one that has intentionally BELIEVE, BELONG to BECOME as in God’s REDEMPTION plan, purpose and pursuit as it’s written in the Holy Writ:

“But upon MOUNT ZION shall be DELIVERANCE, and there shall be HOLINESS; and the house of Jacob shall POSSESS THEIR POSSESSIONS” Obadiah 1:17 (Emphasis Mine).

Therefore, we can now be emboldened to say, declare, announce, proclaim that our DOMINION IN REDEMPTION is beyond walls – and it’s the UNIFYING BOND of the JEWS and the GENTILES (GREEKS) in becoming –

THE CHURCH OF GOD in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? 31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 32 GIVE NONE OFFENCE, NEITHER TO THE JEWS, NOR TO THE GENTILES, NOR TO THE CHURCH OF GOD: 33 even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved” 1 Corinthians 10:30-33.

“For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. 6 For IN Jesus Christ neither CIRCUMCISION availeth any thing, nor UNCIRCUMCISION; but FAITH which worketh by love . . . 11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach CIRCUMCISION, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the OFFENCE of the cross ceased” Galatians 5:5-6, 11.

“For Christ is the END of the LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to every one that believeth . . . 11 For the scripture saith, WHOSOEVER believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE JEW AND THE GREEK: for the same Lord over all is RICH unto ALL that CALL upon him. 13 For WHOSOEVER shall CALL upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED” Romans 10:4-6, 11-13.

“Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. 3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. 4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. 5 For every man shall bear his own burden. 6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things. 7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. 9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. 10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. 11 Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand. 12 As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ. 13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. 14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. 15 For IN CHRIST JESUS NEITHER CIRCUMCISION AVAILETH ANY THING, NOR UNCIRCUMCISION, BUT A NEW CREATURE. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God” Galatians 6:13-16.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: old things are PASSED AWAY; behold, all things are BECOME new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath RECONCILED US to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath GIVEN TO US the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, RECONCILING the world unto himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses unto them; and hath COMMITTED unto us THE WORD OF RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then we ARE AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath MADE him to BE sin for us, who KNEW NO sin; that we might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

“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 . . .13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the GENTILES through Jesus Christ; that we might RECEIVE the PROMISE of the Spirit through FAITH . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither JEW nor GREEK, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then ARE ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to PREACH THE GOSPEL: not with WISDOM of WORDS, lest the CROSS of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the PREACHING of the CROSS is to them that PERISH FOOLISHNESS; but unto us which ARE SAVED it is the POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 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 . . .30 But of him ARE ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is MADE unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and REDEMPTION: 31 that, according as it is written, He that GLORIETH, let him GLORY in the Lord”  1 Corinthians 1:17-24, 30-31.

“And they SUNG A NEW SONG, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to OPEN THE SEALS thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of EVERY KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall REIGN on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.

“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the FIRST BEGOTTEN OF THE DEAD, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that LOVED us, and WASHED us from our sins in his own blood, 6 and hath MADE us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and DOMINION for ever and ever. Amen” Revelation 1:5-6.

“For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the FIRSTBORN AMONG MANY BRETHREN. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also glorified” Romans 8:29-30.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 that ye BE NOT SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12 (Emphasis Mine).

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT a BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:8-9 (Emphasis Mine).

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to the WORD of his GRACE, which is ABLE to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

“But ye are come unto MOUNT SION (Zion), and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the general ASSEMBLY and CHURCH of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 and to Jesus the MEDIATOR of the NEW COVENANT, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel” Hebrews 12:22-24 (Emphasis Mine).

Being JUSTIFIED By Faith – We Have ACCESS By Faith And A STAND By GRACE: For We Are MADE God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS In Christ Jesus – Hallelujah!

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“There is therefore NOW NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” Romans 8:1-2.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath RECONCILED us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath GIVEN to us the MINISTRY of RECONCILIATION; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, RECONCILING the world unto himself, not IMPUTING their TRESPASSES unto them; and hath COMMITTED unto us the WORD of RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye RECONCILED to God. 21 For he hath MADE him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be MADE the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of EVERY KINDRED, and TONGUE, and PEOPLE, and NATION; 10 and hast made us unto our God KINGS and PRIESTS: and we shall REIGN on the earth . . . 12 saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE POWER, and RICHES, and WISDOM, and STRENGTH, and HONOUR, and GLORY, and BLESSING” Revelation 5:9-12.

“Ye also, as LIVELY STONES, are built up a SPIRITUAL HOUSE, an HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . . 9 But ye are a CHOSEN GENERATION, a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, an HOLY NATION, a PECULIAR PEOPLE; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 10 which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not OBTAINED mercy, but now have obtained mercy” 1 Peter 2:5-10.

“For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS shall REIGN IN LIFE by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of one the free gift came upon all men unto JUSTIFICATION of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be MADE RIGHTEOUS. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. BUT WHERE SIN ABOUNDED, GRACE DID MUCH MORE ABOUND: 21 that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might GRACE REIGN THROUGH RIGHTEOUSNESS unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17-21.

NO MORE FISHING ON YOUR HURT

By Leave a Comment

NO MORE FISHING ON YOUR HURT: FORGIVENESS AND FORGETFULNESS – MADE POSSIBLE IN THE JUSTIFICATION OF GOD – IN CHRIST JESUS!

“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH NOT HIS ANGER FOR EVER, because he DELIGHTETH in mercy. 19 He will turn again, he will have COMPASSION upon us; he will SUBDUE our iniquities; and thou wilt CAST ALL their SINS into the DEPTHS of the sea” Micah 7:18-19.

Are you struggling to FORGIVE and FORGET? Do you still go FISHING the PAST to hunt and hurt the PRESENT? Do you wants to live WHOLE again from bitterness, anger, wrath, revenge and more?  There’s hope in REDEMPTION. You can possess your WHOLENESS in Redemption again.

In today’s society – individuals, families, businesses, communities, and nations, government and governance are been ruin everyday by everyway because of the inability to not FORGIVE and to FORGET; and to move FORWARD, which is ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, in God’s given grace to succeed in Christ Jesus stead.

“We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we LOVE the brethren. He that LOVETH NOT his brother ABIDETH in DEATH. 15 Whosoever HATETH his brother is a MURDERER: and ye know that NO MURDERER hath ETERNAL LIFE ABIDING in him. 16 Hereby PERCEIVE we the LOVE of God, because he LAID DOWN his life for us: and we OUGHT TO LAY DOWN our lives for the brethren” 1 John 3:14-16.

The ability to forgive YOURSELF, forgive OTHERS and accept GOD’S forgiveness will guarantee you the graciousness and gracefulness to live WHOLE in FORGETFULNESS and become free from the cancerous monster of BITTERNESS, ANGER, REVENGE, WRATH, WICKEDNESS and such like – the more.

I make bold to say that to be WHOLE in spirit, soul and body, the antidote to forgive and forget with ease, is to let JUSTIFICATION play the means route and role in all forms of FORGIVENESS. That’s the gateway to FORGETFULNESS in moving FORWARD – that is, ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory on what God DID in Christ Jesus for us all to be WHOLE again in Him. Romans 5:1-2.

He did not only FORGIVES us IN our sins and shortfalls of evils and wickedness and more, but JUSTIFIED us, which is an antidote, so that we CAN now access Him in our UPWARDS, INWARDS and ONWARDS day to day life of grace.

And to JUSTIFY is to declare you guiltless, discharge and free, that is, to be ACQUITTED, as if you’ve never done what you’ve been accused of or have done. This is what God accomplished by using the eternal DONE DEED DID of Christ in our REDEMPTION; to set us free with NO FISHING NET of REMEMBRANCE attached; in order to erase our PAST, wherein our iniquity has been buried in the sea of FORGETFULNESS. Micah 7:18-19.

Hence to say that the New Creation in Christ has no PAST. And when you act in same like spirit towards others, you will live free of BITTERNESS, ANGER, WRATH, FEAR, WORRY, REVENGE and such like the more; otherwise it that hunts and hurts as a cancerous disease on the one who refuses to both FORGIVE & FORGET.

NO MORE FISHING ON YOUR HURT – FORGIVENESS IS POSSIBLE IN REDEMPTION!

I pray you God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in this knowing and understanding, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by faith into this GRACE wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God . . . 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 BUT GOD COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US. 9 Much more then, being now JUSTIFIED by his blood, we shall be SAVED FROM WRATH through him. 10 For if, when we were ENEMIES, we were RECONCILED to God by the death of his Son, much more, BEING RECONCILED, we shall be SAVED BY HIS LIFE. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now RECEIVED the atonement” Romans 5:1-2, 5-11.

“Therefore if ANY man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: old things are PASSED away; behold, all things are BECOME NEW . . . 21 For he hath MADE him to be SIN FOR US, who KNEW NO SIN; that we might be MADE the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.
