DON’T TALK ABOUT THE MOUNTAIN BUT SPEAK TO THE MOUNTAIN INSTEAD: YOUR MOUTH IS GOD’S MOUTH TO LEVEL THE MOUNTAIN IF YOU BELIEVE! 

“WHO ART THOU, O great MOUNTAIN? before Zerubbabel thou shalt BECOME A PLAIN: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it” Zechariah 4:7. 

HAVE YOU DWELL LONG ENOUGH ON THE MOUNT? And are you STRUGGLING or at STANDSTILL in your PATH of progress? 

Know for sure that MOUNTAINS are long standing roadblocks on your path to progress. You need to SPEAK to it and not TALK about it.  

You can by today and through this month overturn THAT MOUNTAIN to become a plain by SPEAKING FORTH to it right now as Jesus AUTHORISED in Mark 11:23 and the Angel spoke in respect for Zerubbabel AUTHORITATIVELY in Zachariah 4:7, and you can then experience the outpouring of God’s BLESSEDNESS in the GRACE in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

YOUR MOUTH DEFINES YOU – BELIEVE and SPEAK FORTH to your triumph, victory, overcoming and more than conquerors and such like, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, THOU SHALT BE AS MY MOUTH: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them” Jeremiah 15:19. 

THEREFORE, DON’T TALK ABOUT THE MOUNTAIN BUT SPEAK TO THE MOUNTAIN INSTEAD – FOR YOUR MOUTH IS GOD’S MOUTH TO LEVEL THE MOUNTAIN IF YOU BELIEVE.

“WHO ART THOU, O great MOUNTAIN? before Zerubbabel thou shalt BECOME A PLAIN: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it” Zechariah 4:7. 

“For verily I SAY unto you, That whosoever shall SAY UNTO THIS MOUNTAIN, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not DOUBT in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he SAITH shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he SAITH. 24 Therefore I SAY unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE that ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall HAVE them” Mark 11:23-24. 

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy HEART: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy MOUTH the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH CONFESSION is MADE unto SALVATION” Romans 10:8-10. 

“A man’s belly shall be SATISFIED with the FRUIT of his MOUTH; and with the INCREASE of his LIPS shall he be FILLED. 21 DEATH and LIFE are in the POWER of the TONGUE: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof” Proverbs 18:20-21. 

“Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, THOU SHALT BE AS MY MOUTH: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them” Jeremiah 15:19. 

“The VOICE of him that crieth in the WILDERNESS, prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 EVERY VALLEY shall be EXALTED, and EVERY MOUNTAIN and HILL shall be MADE LOW: and the CROOKED shall be MADE STRAIGHT, and the ROUGH PLACES PLAIN: 5 and the glory of the Lord shall be REVEALED, and all FLESH shall see it together: for the MOUTH of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 40:3-5.

BOOKS And READERS: Makes INFORMED LEADERS And LEADERSHIP – Be An INFORMED WORLD Changer! 

“Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR (ERRONEOUS, MISTAKEN), not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29. 

READ before you RUN – for great VISION are born by INFORMED READERS. 

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE THE VISION, and make it PLAIN upon tables, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:2 (1-4). 

An INFORMED READER makes INFORMED LEADER and INFORMED LEADERSHIP. 

It must be noted that an INFORMED LEADER is set to solve problems and not to merely discuss about problems or create further problems.

EXCELLENCE IS PURE: ENVISION IT TO EXCEL! 

“HOLDING the MYSTERY OF THE FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9. 

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE VOID OF OFFENCE TOWARD God, AND TOWARD men” Acts 24:16. 

Sometimes when I hear some so-called Gospel Ministers and Christian faith believers say this: “IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT THEY DO AS LONG AS GOD STILL LOVES THEM’, I begin to wonder what this life of grace has become to some, especially in the 21st century. Is it true that God STILL LOVES US IN FAITH NO MATTER WHAT WE DO? Who then will QUESTION the UNSAVED and what right do we have then to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the unsaved. Then the Scripture of Romans comes to mind, that we can’t continue in sin in the name of grace. And we can’t continue also in the fleshy [carnal] ways of doing life that’s contrary to the freedom we’ve received of God in Christ Jesus, as caution against in the Galatians scripture, otherwise we will be without guildrails to enable and ensure we stay secured in the grace from the enemy and cohorts intent on our redemption. 

“What shall we say [to all this]? Should we CONTINUE IN SIN and PRACTICE SIN as a habit so that [God’s gift of] GRACE may increase and overflow? 2 CERTAINLY NOT! How can we, the very ones who died to sin, CONTINUE to live in it any longer? 3 Or are you ignorant of the fact that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?” Romans 6:1-3/Amplified. 

“It was for this FREEDOM that Christ SET US FREE [completely liberating us]; therefore keep standing firm and do NOT BE SUBJECT again to a YOKE OF SLAVERY [which you once removed] . . . 13 For you, my brothers, were CALLED TO FREEDOM; only do not let your freedom become an OPPORTUNITY for the SINFUL nature (worldliness, selfishness), but through love serve and seek the best for one another” Galatians 5:1, 13/Amplified. 

Know full well that God LOVES us, but that does not mean He does COMMEND a life being lived outside His WORD. As I have always said time and again that our God will ONLY COMMEND what He had COMMAND and ORDERED. All things [good or bad] will work together for the good of those who not only love God BUT walk and do life according to the course of His Word in Purpose just as Jesus Christ did in humanity. [Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:11-12; John 18:37; 1 John 3:8]. 

Many times, God’s purposes of excellence to us, is so clear before us, but we need to walk and work in the course of that envisioned covenant of His grace; and if one begin to do any act of life outside His Word, we will surely loose out in our place of grace to excel. Apostle Paul says this in Galatians 2:21 “I do not FRUSTRATE the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain”. Meaning I do not do things that will make the GRACE of God INOPERATIVE and INEFFECTIVE in my life. Amen. 

An example of FRUSTRATING GRACE to rob one of EXCELLENCE in Christ Jesus stead is as this: 

What happened to Reuben the first born of Jacob. Though born for an envisioned excellency to attain, he lost his place of blessedness to excel to his younger brother Joseph, for sleeping with one of His father’s wives in the SCRIPTURAL context as found in Genesis 49:1-4. You can’t eat your cake and have it. Grace for EXCELLENCE is not cheap or not to be taken for granted and done with despite as Hebrews 10:29 warns and enjoins: 

“Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done DESPITE unto the Spirit of grace?” 

When you look through the heroes of Faith in Patriarchal order of HEBREWS CHAPTER ELEVEN, you will noticed after Patriarch Jacob, the next name that comes is Patriarch Joseph instead of Patriarch Reuben, though he was his father’s excellency of dignity and first born worthy of double honour as the Scripture does recommend – Genesis 49:3; Deuteronomy 21:15-17; Genesis 25:31-33. That’s why you must be on guard on your ENVISIONED EXCELLENCE to avoid derailing in the grace of actualising your place in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead, of our REDEMPTION in Him. Acts 20:32; Hebrews 6:10-12; Ephesians 1:7 (Colossians 1:13-14; 1 Corinthians 1:30). 

EXCELLENCE IS PURE! So, if you crave to have God’s good and best, watch your PATH OF LIFE to the ENVISIONED EXCELLENCE. [1 Timothy 3:9; Philippians 4:8]. Therefore, answer yourself this question – Is it Scriptural true, that, it doesn’t matter what people do simply because God loves them? – [Romans 6:1-4; Galatians 5:1, 13].

“Moreover THE WORD of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, WHAT SEEST (ENVISION) THOU? And I said, I SEE (ENVISION) a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well SEEN (ENVISION): for I will hasten MY WORD to PERFORM it” Jeremiah 1:11-12 (Emphasis Mine). 

“And Jacob CALLED unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. 3 Reuben, thou art MY FIRSTBORN, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: 4 unstable as water, thou shalt not EXCEL; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; then DEFILEDST thou it: he went up to my couch” (Genesis 49:1-4). 

“. . . By FAITH Isaac BLESSED Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. 21 By FAITH Jacob, when he was a dying, BLESSED both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff. 22 By FAITH Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. . .” (Hebrews 11:20-22).

AN HOUR IN GOD’S PRESENCE: ENDEAVOUR TO PRACTICE IT DAILY – YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT! 

“And in the morning, RISING UP A GREAT WHILE before day, he went out, and departed into a SOLITARY PLACE, and there PRAYED” Mark 1:35. 

CAN’T YOU WATCH WITH ME FOR AN HOUR? That is, can’t you spend at least an HOUR in Father God’s PRESENCE with Me? That was the question that Jesus did ask the early followers called Disciples who later became Apostles. And can you today say yes to same question as it’s written: 

“. . . 38 Then He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. STAY HERE AND WATCH WITH ME.” 39 He went a little farther and fell on His face, and PRAYED, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” 40 Then He came to the disciples and found them SLEEPING, and said to Peter, “WHAT! COULD YOU NOT WATCH WITH ME ONE HOUR? 41. Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” . . .” Matthew 26:36-56. 

The above subject questioning of Christ Jesus reminds me of my early and still current Christian FAITH set motto that has served as my PRAYER guardrails, daily reminder, and guidance through the years – it’s been a default of disciplinary measures in helping and keeping me to be alert and awake in enjoying God’s PRESENCE daily – and the statement motto reads: 

“SEVEN PRAYERLESS DAYS MAKES ONE WEAK” 

My dear fellow Believer’s in the grace, it’s important you know for sure the implications of the statement – SEVEN PRAYERLESS DAYS THAT MAKES ONE WEAK – and the one act to note about the statement, which is this: 

• Our FELLOWSHIP with Father God through the act of PRAYERS is to ENHANCE our RELATIONSHIP with Him; and will be WEAKENED in the faith if we don’t become intentional, pragmatic and having a resolved consciousness about it in our day to day living. That’s why, any acclaimed Believers in Christ, who can’t spend at least – an hour in Father God’s presence a whole day, is prone to fall into diverse temptations knowingly or unknowingly. 

When one of Jesus Disciples [Apostle Peter to be precised], couldn’t WATCH and PRAY for an hour with the Lord, he was prone to fall into trouble, because the FLESH, FLESHY-RULE [BODILY-RULE] kick-in and he made a wrong judgement of the spiritual attitude to a challenging incidence. He did the unexpected thing – by cutting off one called Malchus ears with the sword with a slight provocation [Matthew 26:51-53; John 18:10]. If he did watch for an hour with Jesus Christ in Father God presence, he would have known His mind about matters concerning Christ and their faith in the kingdom. And many are guilty of such things in various ways today. 

“Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus” John 18:10. 

The further consequential results of not watching for an hour, exemplified the following sequence in Peter and the other disciples: 

• Peter cut Malchus ears 

• Peter later denied Jesus 

• The other disciples hid themselves from being noticed and challenged and probably court marshalled. 

And there are many so-called Believers who will do same today, when questioned if they knew Jesus Christ. Adam and Eve hid themselves too from God – remember that? and many similar challenging matters have been avoided by many, instead of standing up and contending for their FAITH in Christ Jesus. [Romans 5:1-2; 1 Peter 5:8-9; Jude 1:3-4; Galatians 1:6-9]. 

Will you WATCH FOR AN HOUR at least in a day in Father God’s presence, as a schedule in your PATH OF LIFE? For therein is the FULLNESS of joy and PLEASURE forevermore. For an HOUR In God’s PRESENCE, makes life an essence that’s WORTH living, in advancing in the Kingdom cause and in keeping the enemy and cohorts at bay. 

It’s a CHOICE to make your PATH OF LIFE in God’s PRESENCE, in order to bring forth your FULLNESS OF JOY and PLEASURE FOR EVERMORE in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK: An hour in God’s PRESENCE – make it an ESSENCE for your well-being in life and godliness. For It’s your path of life for your fullness of joy and pleasure for ever more. [Psalms 16:11]. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“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. 

“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. 

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a roaring lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world” 1 Peter 5:8-9. 

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should EARNESTLY CONTEND FOR THE FAITH which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ” Jude 1:3-4. 

“Then Jesus came with THEM to a place CALLED Gethsemane, and said to the disciples, “Sit here while I go and PRAY over there.” 37 And He TOOK with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and He began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed. 38 Then He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. STAY HERE AND WATCH WITH ME.” 39 He went a little farther and fell on His face, and PRAYED, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” 40 Then He came to the disciples and found them SLEEPING, and said to Peter, “WHAT! COULD YOU NOT WATCH WITH ME ONE HOUR? 41 Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 42 Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done.” 43 And He came and found them ASLEEP again, for their eyes were heavy. 44 So He left them, went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. 45 Then He came to His disciples and said to them, “ARE YOU STILL SLEEPING AND RESTING? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand” . . . 51 And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. 52 But Jesus said to him, “Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Or do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels? 54 How then could the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen thus?” 55 In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, “Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me? I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you did not seize Me. 56 But all this was done that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples FORSOOK Him and fled” Matthew 26:36-56/NKJV.

ENVISION The WAGON: IT’S WHEN YOU ENVISION THE WAGON – YOU WILL BE REVIVED AS JACOB!   

“And they went up out of Egypt and came into the land of Canaan unto Jacob their father, 26 and told him, saying, JOSEPH IS YET ALIVE, and HE IS GOVERNOR over all the land of Egypt. And Jacob’s HEART FAINTED, FOR HE BELIEVED THEM NOT. 27 And they TOLD him all the WORDS of Joseph, which he had said unto them: AND WHEN HE SAW THE WAGONS which Joseph had sent to carry him, the SPIRIT of Jacob their father REVIVED: 28 and Israel said, It is ENOUGH; Joseph my son is yet ALIVE: I WILL GO AND SEE HIM BEFORE I DIE” Genesis 45:25-28. 

There’s no one who despises any HEALTHY OPPORTUNITY to RISE above the NORM. I am yet to find one. Let me know where I am wrong, I’ll humbly submit to corrections if you’ve known or found one. Not even the DEVILS will refuse such opportunities to BELIEVE as the scripture indicates that he does even BELIEVE too as written: 

“Thou BELIEVEST that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also BELIEVE, and tremble” James 2:19. 

When Jacob was told and pressured of the need to travel down to Egypt and see Joseph his once acclaimed dead son by his other children, he doubted their news. For him, hearing that Joseph was yet ALIVE after years of being told he’s dead, that beat his imagination and comprehension; and since he couldn’t have IMAGINE and ENVISION it real, he couldn’t BELIEVE them; especially when there’s already a supposedly shown living fact proof to him, [of the bloody coat of many colours gifted to him] that was presented by his other children, that affirmed him then as being dead. 

The above paragraph thus help to indicate, that sometimes in life, a mere shown fact and proof you think you have seen and made to know, may be a mere FACT and proof only, and does not necessarily present the TRUTH in whatsoever way to believe on, and to rely upon it, either immediately and permanently. And if it was these days, they could have been a funeral certificate given to ascertain Joseph absence, in the family records as one being dead while he was yet alive. This can explain what mostly good spirited and dearest parents and family members who lost a child or loved ones and couldn’t have their body to lay to rest in grace are going through silently in most cases. For such scenarios, it hurts and hunts them daily – especially for such absence over the years of unknown conclusion of their dearest loved ones, as I have come to meet few in such circumstances – in the cause of my Ministerial assignments in life and grace. 

However, and when Jacob SAW the WAGON with the GOODNESS, ABUNDANCE and GOODIES accompanying the children’s statement and the request of Joseph to him through his other cowardice children on the errands, Jacob’s WEAKENED spirit-being, was REVIVED – that is to say – CAME ALIVE from the UNBELIEVING state of being, to a BELIEVING state of being. 

“Moreover THE WORD of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, WHAT SEEST (ENVISION) THOU? And I said, I SEE (ENVISION) a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well SEEN (ENVISION): for I will HASTEN MY WORD TO PERFORM IT” Jeremiah 1:11-12/Emphasis Mine. 

If you can give room to ENVISION God’s plan, Purpose, Pursuit for your life, with the needed WAGON and ASSOCIATES to keep your faith and total being ALIVE, won’t you come along to take the opportunity’s ?

And can you today and now by the scriptures, even see that the needed grace of God’s BLESSEDNESS wherein you stand in faith on Christ Jesus stead is always set to be activated with ease on your behalf ? This I know and understand very well, hence, I am emboldened to share with you likewise. In fact, your act of PRAYER life and FAITH life, will change for good and the best, if you can ENVISION – and I can say that to you emphatically and unreservedly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

The WAGONS and GOODIES that Jacob SAW REVIVED [QUICKENED] him, to keep him alive and to make him take the next step or leap of faith to see his supposedly lost son Joseph and to live for MORE years instead of hoping for death where there’s an opportunity to live. There’s a far better place to be in life and grace in Christ Jesus stead – it’s far better to be with Jacob reviving WAGONS and GOODIES position, than to stay still in poverty and lack, shouting “I RECEIVE”, I RECEIVE”, “I RECEIVE” . . . for nothing, due to a no act to see or envision the need to become well and whole again – as SCRIPTURALLY given in God’s willed inheritance for you and all believing one’s, in Him, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

The Scripture of Ephesians 1:3 did say God has BLESSED us, meaning empowered  to succeed in His grace in Christ Jesus. More so, in 2 Peter 1:1-4, He has GIVEN us all things that pertains to ensuring this life doings and godliness [godly living], in Christ Jesus. Amen. However, this enabling of God, comes through knowledge and acknowledgement [envisioning], in order to bring it to fruition – reality, and to make it tangible in the grace. [Philemon 1:6]. Therefore, it’s within us to envision God’s promised WORD in every context as it affects our life challenges, for it’s as we study the scriptures to know them, that’s when we are able to enact and authenticate them to reality in doing life and living godly in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

In this context, I don’t mean having a dayDREAMING imaginations, but by ENVISIONING through the knowledge of WORD as it affects any context of question in our being. Joseph had a VISION of a gracious and graceful life years before it happened. And the Father Jacob who recalled of his son dream (envisioned) years before and by what he later SAW – the WAGONS – is enough to give him a clarity and clearer insights and foresights – by what his son Joseph sent along; the sent WAGON helped him ENVISION the reality of a possible Joseph as told him by the children; and the affirmation to the ENVISIONED dream that Joseph shared to him and family years ago. 

I PRAY that your insights and foresights of a possible today and tomorrow might be ENVISIONED in your cause of doing life and living godly by God in Christ Jesus stead, Amen.

“. . . 5 And Joseph DREAMED (ENVISIONED) a DREAM (VISION), and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. 6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this DREAM which I have DREAMED: 7 for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. 8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words. 9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me. 10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth? 11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying . . .” Genesis 37:1-36. 

“. . . 16 Moreover he CALLED for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread. 17 He SENT a man before them, even JOSEPH, who was SOLD for a servant: 18 whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron: 19 UNTIL THE TIME THAT HIS WORD CAME: THE WORD OF THE LORD TRIED HIM. 20 The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free. 21 He MADE him LORD of his house, and RULER of all his substance: 22 to BIND his princes at his pleasure; and TEACH his senators wisdom. 23 Israel also CAME into Egypt; and Jacob SOJOURNED in the land of Ham. 24 And he INCREASED his people greatly; and MADE them STRONGER than their enemies. 25 He TURNED their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants . . . Psalms 105:1-45.

CHOOSE TO ENVISION YOUR TURNAROUND: YOUR CHOICE IS WHAT’S DEFINING AND MAKING YOUR TODAY AND TOMORROW! 

“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will GIVE unto thee the KEYS of the kingdom of heaven: and WHATSOEVER thou shalt BIND (ALLOWED, PERMITTED) on earth shall be BOUND in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt LOOSE (DISALLOWED, UNPERMITTED) on earth shall be loosed in heaven” Matthew 16:18-19/Emphasis Mine. 

God MADE – THE RICH person, and God MADE – THE POOR person, but it’s not God that MADE THEM SO – to be RICH or POOR. People BECOME what they ARE and not who they ARE by the CHOICES they MADE and are MAKING; or they ALLOWED to be MADE for them; or had been MADE long before they came to the SHORE of life and grace and they’re RESOLVED to follow suit in the context and concept that it RUNS in their family or in their DNA or it’s the ACCEPTABLE plot in life to BECOME irrespective. 

“The Lord MAKETH POOR, and MAKETH RICH: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. 8 He RAISETH up THE POOR out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and he hath set the world upon them. 9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail. 10 The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed” 1 Samuel 2:7-10. 

“The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens. 5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high, 6 who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! 7 He RAISETH UP THE POOR OUT OF THE DUST, AND LIFTETH THE NEEDY OUT OF THE DUNGHILL; 8 that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people. 9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, 

and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord” Psalms 113:4-9. 

If for example you chose to be corrupt or to elect a corrupt official, leader or government to be in governance, board of trustees of a business, company, entrepreneur and in public or private places of doing life including the CHURCH per se, you will LIVE by the CONSEQUENCES of it. This is not who you ARE but what you ALLOWED and PERMITS, and this is of CHOICE and not the MAKINGS of God. God will only COMMEND what He COMMANDS; and will ALLOW (PERMIT) what you ALLOW (PERMIT) to be. Since He created man and placed him on EARTH with a WILL, which is the POWER of CHOICE.  Man gets to DEFINE the ATMOSPHERE he wants to see and embrace. [Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 8:4-6; Matthew 18:16-19; Psalms 115:16]. 

Therefore, choose wisely today and always, by ENVISIONING the effects of your CHOICES in LIFE and GRACE, in DOING LIFE and GODLY LIVING, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead.  

I do PRAY for you to take a moment to SELAH – PAUSE and THINK, in making your CHOICES that defines and makes you instead of blaming others or God with transfer aggression. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Moreover THE WORD of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, WHAT SEEST (ENVISION) THOU? And I said, I SEE (ENVISION) a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well SEEN (ENVISION): for I will hasten MY WORD to PERFORM it” Jeremiah 1:11-12/Emphasis Mine. 

“The Lord MAKETH POOR, and MAKETH RICH: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. 8 He RAISETH up THE POOR out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and he hath set the world upon them. 9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail. 10 The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed” 1 Samuel 2:7-10. 

“The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens. 5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high, 6 who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! 7 He RAISETH UP THE POOR OUT OF THE DUST, AND LIFTETH THE NEEDY OUT OF THE DUNGHILL; 8 that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people. 9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children.

“Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, ASK ME OF THINGS to come CONCERNING MY SONS, and CONCERNING THE WORK OF MY HANDS command ye me. 12 I HAVE MADE THE EARTH, AND CREATED MAN UPON IT: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded” Isaiah 45:11-12. 

“The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: BUT THE EARTH HATH HE GIVEN TO THE CHILDREN OF MEN” Psalms 115:16. 

“WHAT IS MAN, THAT THOU ART MINDFUL OF HIM? and THE SON OF MAN, THAT THOU VISITEST HIM? 5 For thou hast MADE him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. 6 Thou MADEST him to have DOMINION OVER THE WORKS of THY HANDS; thou hast PUT ALL THINGS UNDER his feet” Psalms 8:4-6.

DO YOU ENVISION TO BE THE BEST: THEN WORK AND WALK AT IT – IT’S GOD’S EXPECTATIONS FROM YOU – BY BEING FAITHFUL! 

“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. 

Is time to REIGN and RULE in LIFE by the Kingdom settings of God – therefore, STOP the limited mentality of EXISTING and START enacting the redemption act of LIVING. 

“The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine ENEMIES thy footstool. 2. The Lord shall send the ROD of thy strength out of ZION [THE CHURCH]: RULE THOU IN THE MIDST OF THINE ENEMIES. 3 Thy people shall be WILLING [VOLUNTEER] in the DAY OF THY POWER, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the DEW of thy YOUTH” Psalms 110:1-3/Emphasis Mine. [Hebrews 12:22-24]. 

Life is for LIVING and not for a mere EXISTENCE. You don’t have to eat to live but to live to eat. If you can’t ENVISION to live by the WORD but by a mere anticipated vision seeing or daydreaming or presume imagination, then life will be in a mere existence and not a living worth, as you may expect or intend to see. 

Know for certainty – YOU ARE REDEEMED, that is, RE-OWNED by God from the grips of SIN – the result for SICKNESS, POVERTY and SPIRITUAL DEATH; and is the redemption that gives the right to LIVE and to reign and rule in life in Christ Jesus stead. When you are by a state of a mere EXISTENCE and not LIVING, you can’t REIGN in life, but when you live by the ENVISIONED Word, you LIVE and reign in life.  

Whatever you do as a profession/career – be FAITHFUL to be the BEST in Life and Grace. Are you a Manson/Bricklayer, Painter, Cook, Tailor/Fashion Designer, Decorator, Singer, Musician, Pastor, Student, Politician, Entrepreneur, Medical Profession, Banker, Lawyer, Civil Servant, Leader of any sorts and such like – be the BEST. Whatever is your kind of SERVICES to humanity that you are excelling or hoping to excel in BECOMING – the question you need to ponder along is – What do you see you BECOME of it to mankind? As far as you can see – insights and foresights – that is, to ENVISION, so can you BECOME in the kingdom – just as father Abraham of our FAITH in Christ Jesus was spoken of, in the Holy Writ of Genesis 13:14-18 [Galatians 3:6-9; 13-14; 26-29]. 

In the kingdom, you are as good as to what you ENVISION and determine to EXCEL to become in it – for the GOOD of mankind. It’s not enough to say I am of this career or profession or calling. How FAITHFUL and GOOD are you working with the enabling grace of God in Christ Jesus, in BECOMING in it – that is, to be the BEST for the GOOD of people, I mean beyond just self-centred and self-gains. And if  you envision to be the best, then work and walk at it – it’s God’s expectations from you – by being FAITHFUL as He’s FAITHFUL in every way in Christ Jesus stead. 

“Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found FAITHFUL” 1 Corinthians 4:1-2. 

“God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9. 

“FAITHFUL is he that CALLETH you, who also will do it” 1 Thessalonians 5:24. 

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for He is FAITHFUL that promised” Hebrews 10:23. 

“He that is FAITHFUL in that which is least is FAITHFUL also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. 11 If therefore ye have NOT BEEN FAITHFUL in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if ye have NOT BEEN FAITHFUL in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own?” Luke 16:10-12. 

It’s not in the best interest of the Christian FAITH for anyone to think they can claim a FIELD (CAREER/PROFESSION) in life when and while they are POORLY and BADLY providing GOODS and SERVICES to people; and they think they can get AWAY with it in the Kingdom even when it appears it’s a norm among many outside of the FAITH. For example, if one says, I am a PAINTER just for the MONETARY GAINS to earn and not necessarily to provide the BEST – GOODS and SERVICES – to people, such can’t become in the kingdom no matter how hard you work your socks off. It’s for this reason of just GAIN above providing corresponding BEST GOODS and SERVICES that there are many people struggling in the Faith despite all the gains gotten. For GAIN is not GODLINESS [GODLY LIVING] in the kingdom and in the grace upon which our faith stands in Christ Jesus stead [1 Timothy 6:5-6]; and God will only reward FAITHFUL stewardship to His WORD – [1 Corinthians 4:1-2; Luke 16:10-12].  

God wants us to EXCEL in life and grace, He however wants us to provide corresponding goods and services to humanity with DILIGENCE and PRUDENCE; also, to ORDERLY and DECENTLY present it. You can only be able to acclaim to EXCEL and REIGN in life and grace in this act of God, if you can ENVISION it. Therefore, ENVISION TO REIGN; and to REIGN through EXCELLENCY. 

Know for sure, that as long as you see men as trees, and not as men, you will hardly bother to be the best in that field. It’s not enough to work to earn a living, envision to see that you provide the goods and services that will have eternal and human effect in men because you are in PARTNERSHIP with God. 

DON’T JUST LIVE: BE ENVISIONED – HAVE INSIGHT AND FORESIGHT IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING. 

I earnestly pray that you will envision to reign in life excellently as you partner with God in the kingdom through the months and years as long as you live, in Jesus’ name. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

“But ye are come unto MOUNT SION [THE CHURCH], 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.

In Month NOVEMBER Utilise the Sixth Sense – More Than Just Common Sense! 

It’s our month of appropriating and enacting the acts of LIFE and GODLY LIVING by – The Sixth Sense – More Than Just Common Sense! 

It’s Your time for the SIXTH SENSE, the sense beyond the COMMON SENSE of the – Five Senses: Seeing, Hearing, Touching/Feeling, Tasting and Smelling. 

The SIXTH SENSE is the FAITH SENSE – The mystery Sense held in pure conscience by the Holy Spirit of mystery and Revelation as it’s written: “Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a pure conscience” 1 Timothy 3:9. 

We need to Do LIFE and Live GODLY by SIXTH SENSE in order to APPROPRIATE and ENACT in essence the FULNESS of the BLESSEDNESS in the HEAVENLY PLACES made available for us on EARTHLY COMMISSION and INTENT, in Christ Jesus. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“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: 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will . . . 11 in whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12 that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ” Ephesians 1:3-12. 

“Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 FOR BY IT the elders OBTAINED a good report. 3 Through FAITH we understand that the WORLDS were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” Hebrews 11:1-3. 

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

“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: 4 whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:3-5.
