The Effective FAITH That Works: It’s COMMUNICATED In HOPE!

“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” Romans 5:5.

The FAITH that WORKS and that’s EFFECTUAL (effective and efficient) is the FAITH that COMMUNICATES in HOPE.

Hence communicate your FAITH in HOPE. For HOPE takes away shame and reproach off ones life, because of the LOVE of Christ that genuinely operative in our spirit by the Holy Spirit.

And the PATIENCE of HOPE keeps FAITH thriving in the midst of all odds, while LABOURING in LOVE to SERVE. 1 Thessalonians 1:3; Hebrews 10:35-36.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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” Romans 5:5.

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

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, AND LABOUR OF LOVE, AND PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God. 5 For our gospel came not unto you in WORD ONLY, BUT ALSO IN POWER, AND IN THE HOLY GHOST, AND IN MUCH ASSURANCE; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-5.

“CAST NOT AWAY therefore your CONFIDENCE, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have NEED OF PATIENCE, that, after ye have DONE THE WILL of God, ye might RECEIVE THE PROMISE . . .” Hebrews 10:35-39.

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION

ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION: BY THE “GOOD FIGHT” OF FAITH!

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus stead is WORTH ALL THE FIGHT if you must ensure your DOMINON IN REDEMPTION. When I talk of the GOOD FAITH OF FAITH, I am not talking of the demonic and satanic consciousness that most people tend to be acquainted with. Am here talking of you taking your STAND to ensure who you ARE in Christ Jesus by the virtue of being born of God – knowing that Christ Jesus is our REDEEMER and REDEMPTION indeed, and have given us access, rights and privileges to reign and rule in DOMINON – the sphere wherein the enemy and cohorts have no authority over you anymore. Hence Proverbs 24:10 says:

“If thou FAINT in the DAY of ADVERSITY, thy STRENGTH is SMALL” Proverbs 24:10.

Sometimes in the course of doing life and living godly – ADVERSITIES – do happen. How we go about in dealing with any of such adversities defines lots in our moving forward – onward and upward trajectory or moving backward or at stand still. When in course of life time you – lose your job, your business close down, you have uncertainty in your relationship and marriage, your children or spouse quit from you, or sickness and diseases afflicts you and your financial position gets worst and uncertain; your career or educational pursuits comes to a hurt and many more setback comes to play in your life – WHAT DO YOU DO?

WHAT YOU DO MATTERS – THEN IS THE “FIGHT OF FAITH” – TO REIGN IN DOMINION IN REDEMPTION.

I WANTS YOU TO KNOW – THAT IT’S ALL ABOUT YOUR “FAITH” – THAT THE ENEMY AND COHORTS ARE AFTER AND NOT THE EVENTS AND HAPPENING IN YOUR LIFE.

The enemy and cohorts knows, if they can SUCCEED in getting you OFF your ‘FAITH’ – that’s your trust and dependence on God’s grace and absolute providence in Christ Jesus – and they will not only ruin you, if you give them permission by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION, they will also ruin all who God had orchestrated you to be His vessel of use, to extend His BLESSEDNESS to them; for the ENEMY and COHORTS knows, that when you SUCCEED in achieving God’s intended PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in doing life and living godly by FAITH, others will be beneficiaries too.

The enemy tried to destroy everything about our BELOVED JOB, but couldn’t crush his FAITH, and JOB by his FIGHT of FAITH for his FAITH, was able to come back far better off while declaring in the cause and course of his challenges – “I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVES, AND HE IS ABLE TO SAVE ME EVEN IN THIS FIGHT OF FAITH” (paraphrased).

“For I KNOW that my REDEEMER liveth, and that he shall STAND at the latter day upon the earth” Job 19:25.

The ENEMY and COHORTS tried it on Christ too, they were eventually and completely crushed and lost the battle of the FAITH as it’s written:

“Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the PRINCE of this WORLD cometh, and hath NOTHING in me” John 14:30.

“Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES of this WORLD, that come to NOUGHT: 7 but we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which none of the PRINCES of this WORLD knew: for had they known it, they would not have CRUCIFIED the Lord of glory” 1 Corinthians 2:6-8.

And I know for sure and assured certainty, the enemy and cohorts can’t succeed with you except you let him be – give them the needed permission to hurt you and your FAITH especially – which simply put, by not ENSURING YOUR DOMINION IN REDEMPTION.

Therefore, today, rise up to FIGHT for the GOOD FIGHT of your FAITH in Christ by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges, for your FAITH worth FIGHTING for because your destiny and that of others depends on it; don’t just give up or backslide simply for a momentary lack – because I know you can and will come back better and best of times in life and godliness than you were before if you deal life through FAITH and PATIENCE – Hebrews 6:11-12; for you can win wholly, faithfully, triumphantly, victoriously, graciously and gracefully when your stand insured and assured of your FAITH in God’s unwavering ability and agility in you and through you by ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION. That’s all you need now, today and always.

NEVER GIVE THE ENEMY AND COHORTS THE OXYGEN THEY CRAVE – IN ORDER NOT TO HURT YOU IN YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD

Therefore, don’t sit back or stay aloof, because the enemy and cohorts are envious of your worth and greatness, hence their intent. So, FIGHT! FIGHT!! and FIGHT!!! By ensuring your DOMINION IN REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus.

Don’t give up, or give in, I challenged you today. YOUR FAITH IS WORTH ALL THE FAITH IN GOD IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN. I pray for you that God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS may abound with you, in life and grace in every way in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Have a blessed and awesome day.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“FIGHT the good FIGHT OF FAITH, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses” 1Timothy 6:12.

“This CHARGE I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a GOOD WARFARE; 19 HOLDING FAITH, and a GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having PUT AWAY CONCERNING FAITH have made SHIPWRECK: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20.

“For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT, I have FINISHED my COURSE, I have KEPT the FAITH: 8 henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing” 2 Timothy 4:6-8.

“The THIEF COMETH not, but for to STEAL, and to KILL, and to DESTROY: I AM COME that they might have LIFE, and that they might have it more ABUNDANTLY” John 10:10.

“. . . 25 For I know that my REDEEMER liveth, and that he shall STAND at the latter day upon the earth. . .” Job 19:1-29.

“. . .  And the Lord TURNED the captivity of Job, when he PRAYED for his friends: also the Lord gave Job TWICE as much as he had before.  11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and everyone an earring of gold.  12 So the Lord BLESSED THE LATTER END of Job MORE THAN HIS BEGINNING . . . 16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.  17 So Job died, BEING OLD AND FULL OF DAYS” Job 42:10-17.

DO YOU DESIRE TO PLEASE GOD?

By Leave a Comment

DO YOU DESIRE TO PLEASE GOD: LIVE AND WALK IN THE SPIRIT BY THE WORD!

I know to what extent most of us are driven in the Christian Faith to DO lots and loads in the name of PLEASING (and wanting to PLEASE) God. And yet NEVER enough, because it’s not by POWER and not by MIGHT but by my Spirit says the LORD as it’s written:

“Then he answered and SPAKE unto me, saying, This is the WORD of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by MIGHT, nor by POWER, but by MY SPIRIT, saith the Lord of hosts” Zechariah 4:6.

And PLEASING God by His Spirit comes through by the WORD. Hence, it’s not enough when some of us let go our precious TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT EXERTION (Physical & Mental) to ensure that the CAUSE and CAUSES of God and humanity are doing great, and are yet found questionable. This is simply because our precious TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT EXERTION (Physical & Mental) may not have been invested and done SCRIPTURALLY by the WORD in CONTEXT to justify one as to the PLEASING of God.

Honestly, why all our efforts may seems good in our own eyes, but are they – the GOOD, ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT WILL of God? Romans 12:1-2. And we mustn’t forget that His WILL is His WORD and in His WORD only. Then we can ask ourselves if our ACTS of DOING what we DO really PLEASE God?

What then is the ACTS to PLEASE God if someone may ask?  HEREIN ARE TWO PRINCIPLES TO KNOW:

** THE ACT TO PLEASE GOD – PRINCIPLE 1:

Spend your most precious time on what God IS to you rather than what you think or conceived or intend that the enemy and cohorts ARE or DOING or capable of doing. More of God and Less and nothing of the ENEMY and COHORTS. Philemon 1:6.

The foremost and great ACT about PLEASING God is that you spent little or no energy at all on your enemy and or enemies if you think you have one; for God will causes them to be at PEACE with you when your time is spent on God primarily as in His WORD on any context. In my own terms, He makes them to WORK for your good instead of been at WAR with you – Proverbs 16:7. DON’T YOU LIKE THAT? Because I Do LOVE God to take care of the ENEMY and COHORTS while I burn my time instead, PLEASING Him. That’s effortless and keeps one at ease in LIFE and GODLY LIVING even in the MIDST of challenges and obstacles in our circumstances.

Having less and nothing of the ENEMY and COHORTS attention and MORE of God is not the gracious and graceful thing to do when having or in the midst of a mental, physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual TORTURE of the known and unknown enemy (enemies) and cohorts. More so, it’s not about having an ENDLESS meetings of prayer and fasting cum night vigils, instead of spending such gracious moments in PLEASING God by the SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT on that circumstantial while He takes care of that ENEMY and COHORTS department for you as enjoined in the Scripture of Proverbs 16:7 and Hebrews 11:6.

This is what I enjoy doing – PLEASING GOD by the SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT on any subject matters that confronts me; and that’s what I wants you to know and enjoy likewise in Christ Jesus. Hence no more enemy (enemies) and cohorts l WORRIES, ANXIOUSNESS and CONSCIOUSNESS to keep me in fear phobias when I am at PEACE with God. That is the PATH OF LIFE I follow, to have COMMUNION, which is the FELLOWSHIP that enhances RELATIONSHIP with God. It SAVES me from ERRORS and SELF AFFLICTION and IGNORANCE in dealing with matters of life in my GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus stead – Psalms 16:11; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28. Matthew 22:29; Acts 17:30-31.

** THE ACT TO PLEASE GOD – PRINCIPLE 2:

“Spend your synergy to LIVE and WALK in the Spirit by your spirit and not in the FLESH – SENSES” Galatians 5:25.

To LIVE and WALK in the Spirit is another ACT you MUST know and start DOING while you stop right now living and walking in the flesh – by your SENSES, if you MUST PLEASE God in order to enjoy the scriptural rights and privileges of Proverbs 16:7 and Hebrews 11:6, in conjunction with the enjoined Scriptures of Romans 8:1-4, 8.

Romans 8:1-4, 8 states that those who are – that is, LIVE and WALK in the FLESH CANNOT PLEASE God. What then does it mean to LIVE and WALK in the FLESH? It means to live and walk in your FIVE SENSES directives in opposition to doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY with God in SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT. And herein, are what the FLESH (SENSES) segments consist of:

** Hearing (Hear)

** Seeing (See)

** Smelling (Smell)

** Tasting (Taste)

** Feeling/Touching (Feel/Touch)

People who live and walks by the indulgence and guidance of their FIVE SENSES satisfies the lusts and affections of the flesh. And such CANNOT PLEASE God no matter what their intents are. For by the DEEDS of the FLESH shall no man LIVE, PREVAIL and be JUSTIFIED before God as says the Scripture – Romans 3:20; Romans 8:13, 28-30.

They are always CONSEQUENCES and EFFECTS of living and walking in the FLESH – five senses. Therefore, DON’T BE A SENSE-RULED or BODY-RULED BELIEVER – if you must PLEASE God. Let your SENSES be sensitized by God’s WORD as Hebrews 5:14 enjoined.

And if you feel Otherwise you can ASK:

*** EVE of Genesis about the effect of the sight (to behold of the eyes) of the fruit in the garden of Eden;

*** ESAU about the smell and taste of porridge that cause his lost to his birthright because of his brother’s – JACOB – porridge;

*** King SAUL of losing his throne towards the harkening his ear in hearing and listening to the voice of the people in making sacrifice ahead of Prophet SAMUEL arrival and instructions;

*** Prophet SAMUEL about trying to anoint ELIAB as a King instead of DAVID by sight in JESSE’S house and God’s rebuke in his trying to do so;

*** King DAVID about the death of a non-LEVITE’S who touch the ARK to help carry it against divine process;

*** Yourself of other such like SENSE ACTS in the Holy Writ not mentioned.

HOW THEN DO WE PLEASE GOD IN ESSENCE:

The Scripture of Hebrews 11:6 says that WITHOUT an ACT of FAITH we CANNOT PLEASE GOD. Really? YES! Faith is ACTING accordingly on what you BELIEVE on GOD’S WORD in context. It thus means FAITH is of God’s WORD. Meaning No WORD – No FAITH, for FAITH comes by the WORD – Romans 10:17, Hebrews 11:1-3.

The WORD of God is spiritual, victorious and triumphant in every way in every cause. Meaning FAITH is spiritual, victorious and triumphant – 1 John 5:3-5, 2 Corinthians 2:14. Then to exercise FAITH life in order to PLEASE GOD, one needs to LIVE and WALK in the Spirit. Only by the Holy Spirit CAN one ONLY live FAR ABOVE the lusts and affections of the flesh – SENSES Galatians 5:24-25.

Living by the SPIRIT is living by the WORD of God. When you develop a living in the Spirit by your spirit consciousness, then can you LIVE and WALK in the SPIRIT by your spirit consciousness.

Do you know and understand what it means to live in the Spirit by your spirit-consciousness to enhance your Spirit Walk by your spirit-consciousness? If you don’t, the FLESH – SENSE living will keep you at WAR in your being as the Scripture enjoins in Galatians 5:16, 24 and James 4:1-3.

Therefore, if you must PLEASE God – then LIVE and WALK in the Spirit by the WORD OF GOD through FAITH. For we WALK by FAITH SENSE and not by SIGHT – FLESH SENSE – 2 Corinthians 5:7. And anything done outside FAITH ACTS is Sin, so enjoined the scripture of Romans 14:23. Sin then means UNBELIEVE toward God in Christ Jesus stead. That is, for any not to BELIEVE on God’s WORD as it is and ACT accordingly in Christ Jesus stead.

If you want and must PLEASE GOD, LIVE and WALK in the Spirit and not in your SENSES that you might access God’s PEACE even in the midst of your acclaimed enemy (enemies) and cohorts (More on this is in my later upcoming Book – “Being Divinely Led of God”).

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“That the COMMUNICATION OF THY FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING OF EVERY GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he maketh even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh . . . 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 5:16, 24-25.

“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who WALK not after the FLESH, but after the Spirit . . . 8 So then they that are in the FLESH CANNOT PLEASE God” Romans 8:1-8.

“. . . 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 . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.

“From whence come WARS AND FIGHTINGS among you? come they not hence, even of your LUSTS that WAR in your members? 2 Ye LUST, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and CANNOT OBTAIN: ye FIGHT AND WAR, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your LUST” James 4:1-3.

BELIEVE Before You ACT

By Leave a Comment

BELIEVE Before You ACT: FAITH Is ACTING ACCORDINGLY On What You BELIEVE Of God’s WORD!

“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 (SET APART)” Acts 20:32.

You need to build your life on the WORD of God in order to enhance your quality of life by God, rather than by the quality built outside the WORD. Do not build your life on such qualities of life that makes you – ACT on PRESUMPTION; and or ACT in a MAKE-BELIEVE; and or ACT on SENTIMENTS; and or ACT on SUSPICION; and such like, which is a mere RELIGION. And God is about you having LIFE in His GRACE and not RELIGION. That’s the essence of the Christian Faith – LIFE in the GRACE, which is of the person of Christ Jesus. Amen.

“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 . . . 17 So then FAITH COMETH BY HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:8-10, 17.

You are either BUILDING on God’s APPROVAL for you or on Men’s APPLAUDS for you or on self-made ASSERTIONS. Know in essence again that FAITH in God comes by HEARING, and the HEARING by the WORD of God. You can either have FAITH in the WORD of God, to enable you TRIUMPH and OVERCOME the challenges in your WORLDS of doing LIFE and GRACE, or have FATE in your make-believe to suit your being.

“Study to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22.

FAITH is only OPERATIVE if you BELIEVE in the WORD accordingly. I wants you to be reminded and to know full well, that BELIEVE is not FAITH. BELIEVE is PASSIVE while FAITH is ACTIVE. Hence a mere ACTING without a BELIEVE on the WORD in reference to your worlds of needs and circumstances, is acting on a fool paradise of presumption and it’s full of emptiness. That’s why the CHANGES you so much DESIRED, to enable you THRIVE instead of being a SURVIVAL as you’ve crave, pursue and seek to obtain ANSWERS may not have worked out as duly expected, in your LIFE and GRACE journeys.

Life with God is not by POWER and MIGHT and SELF-INDULGENCE but by God’s Spirit which is a consequence of God’s WORD truly BELIEVED upon – Romans 14:17; Zachariah 4:6. Therefore BELIEVE in God and on His WORD, to enable you ACT accordingly in order to rightly RECEIVE from Him.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 23 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 11:22-24.

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

“But 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 . . . 17 So then FAITH COMETH BY HEARING, and HEARING by THE WORD of God” Romans 10:8-10, 17.

“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst BELIEVE, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE to him that BELIEVETH” Mark 9:23.

“And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is IMPOSSIBLE, but not with God: for with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE” Mark 10:27.

“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 . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to please him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.

“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.

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: BUT THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 (Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11).

“And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: FOR WHATSOEVER IS NOT OF FAITH IS SIN” Romans 14:23.

SPIRITUAL FAMINE

By Leave a Comment

SPIRITUAL FAMINE: ARE YOU IN DROUGHT TO THE HEARING OF THE WORD!

Don’t live in SPIRITUAL DROUGHT – it will short circuit your path in DOING LIFE and LIVING GODLY in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

There’s nothing as dangerous and deadly as FAMINE – be it physical or spiritual. FAMINE is the extreme – scarcity, shortage, drought, unavailability, lack, insufficiency, undersupply, deficiency, impoverishment, shortfalls and such like, of the basic necessity(ies) of life – e.g. FOOD – resulting HUNGER, which consequences are unprecedented fatalities.

In life we know how people suffer and die in horrible condition when there’s physical famine. We don’t have to look far to see the dire Physical hunger and needs in our NEIGHBOURHOOD, COMMUNITIES, SOCIETY, NATION and WORLD today. Hunger as a result of FAMINE is a severe and terrible condition for any to experience. Yet, many in our WORLDS are suffering and dying daily as a result of this monster called – FAMINE.

Unfortunately today, many don’t fully know and realize that the SPIRITUAL FAMINE do exist; and there are implications of its existence in one’s life and in our society and world; and could be the DE FACTO to even the physical condition we do experience today as – INDIVIDUAL, FAMILY, SOCIETY and NATION.

A SPIRITUAL FAMINE indicates a NO SPIRITUAL FOOD or sufficient and adequate provision especially, resulting severe hunger – leading to spiritual suffering and or death. A NO FOOD means a NO WORD, which is the FOOD of the SPIRITUAL man – the spirit being. The Man in HUMAN (Hu-Man) is a being, that is, a spirit being (subconscious place), have a soul (conscious mind, reasoning faculty, will) and live in a body (physique, physical structure).

A NO WORD for man’s being means a NO FAITH. And a NO FAITH is consequential; for FAITH comes by the HEARING of The WORD of God – (Romans 10:17, which means with NO WORD, then NO FAITH, and NO FAITH – one can’t PLEASE God – (Hebrews 11:6). To live a life wherein God is not PLEASE with you or rather you can’t PLEASE God has consequences – (Romans 14:23). And such consequences could be dire and results to fatalities just as physical hunger does – (Amos 8:11-14; Genesis 41-47).

One of such consequence is to have no MEANINGFUL nourishment and fulfillment in LIFE and GODLY LIVING with God as a result of NO FELLOWSHIP to enhance one’s RELATIONSHIP with GOD. It takes FAITH to FELLOWSHIP with God. For we are CALLED to FELLOWSHIP with God in order to ENHANCE our RELATIONSHIP with Him, for therein is the PATH of LIFE – (1 Corinthians 1:9/Psalms 16:11; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:11).

When one is IMPOVERISHED and MALNOURISHED within one’s being, there’s no amount of WEALTH and PHYSICAL POSSESSION that can FULLFIL such emptiness within – (Luke 12:15). And there’s no scientific or medical acts as SCAN, XRAY, STETHOSCOPE, CHEMOTHERAPY and such likes that can and will be able to detect the essence of the human spirit that makes man a being. For God have put in a default of ETERNITY in the human spirit with which in His infinite nature only Him can sense every being. (Ecclesiastes 3:11 Amplified; Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4).

Therefore, SPIRITUAL FAMINE as to the PHYSICAL FAMINE have consequences. And with RESOLVED for an ANSWER to SPIRITUAL FAMINE, the PHYSICAL FAMINE can be RESOLVED effortless in grace – (2 Chronicles 7:12-15). For GOD will ensure that FAMINE of ALL SORTS are RESOLVED for the good of all – (Psalms 33:18-20; Psalms 37:18-19; Genesis 26:1-14; Psalms 105:16-24/Genesis 41-47.

It’s time to RESOLVED to give yourself to FEED HEALTHILY on the WORD of God, firstly on PERSONAL level and other platforms in ONLINE opportunities, in order to avoid FAMINE. More so, to triumphantly thrive and be meaningfully fulfilled over any form of FAMINE that may tends to affect you in LIFE, GRACE and GODLY LIVING – (Job 23:12; 2 Timothy 2:15; 2 Timothy 4:14-17; Matthew 22:29; Jeremiah 15:16; Psalms 1:1-3).

Don’t live in SPIRITUAL DROUGHT – it will short circuit your PATH IN LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

THE SPIRITUAL IMPACT OF THE FAMINE OF HEARING THE WORD IS ENORMOUS AND INDESCRIBABLE. Therefore, with many facing ENORMOUS life challenges and circumstances, which are as a result of THE FAMINE OF THE HEARING OF THE WORD, there is the need to be built up in FAITH; and the needs to kick-start your own avenue on personal level to THE HEARING OF THE WORD in order to  STEADFASTLY RESIST IN THE FAITH, the FEAR of the monster that has befallen or intending, long before it gets to your vicinity – (1 Peter 5:8-11; Romans 10:17; 2 Timothy 1:7; Amos 8:11-14).

It’s time to feed HEALTHILY your spirit and well-being with the living WORD in order to STEADFASTLY RESIST IN FAITH, the fear of the monster that has gripped and crippled the world health and economy to a standstill and downwards curve – (1 Peter 5:8-11).

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Behold, the DAYS come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a FAMINE in the land, not a FAMINE of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of HEARING THE WORDS OF THE LORD: 12 and they shall WANDER from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall RUN to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it. 13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men FAINT FOR THIRST. 14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-sheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again” Amos 8:11-14.

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

“Neither have I gone back from the COMMANDMENT of his lips; I have ESTEEMED THE WORDS OF HIS MOUTH more than my NECESSARY FOOD” Job 23:12.

“Wherewithal shall a young man CLEANSE his way? by TAKING HEED thereto ACCORDING to THY WORD . . . 105 Thy Word is a LAMP unto my FEET, and a LIGHT unto my PATH . . .130 The ENTRANCE of THY WORDS giveth LIGHT; it giveth UNDERSTANDING unto the SIMPLE” Psalms 119:9, 105, 130.

WISDOM NUGGETS: YOU CAN’T BRIBE, BUY AND OUTSMART GOD!

WISDOM NUGGETS: YOU CAN’T BRIBE, BUY AND OUTSMART GOD!

TITHE/TITHING IT’S NOT ENOUGH – Until You LIVE The LIFE of – JUSTICE, MERCY AND FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) in Christ Jesus stead, you are only deceiving yourself. And self-deception is the worst ENEMY and COHORTS to one’s self. Hence, Jesus said – it’s about living a WHOLESOME life in Him. Don’t be deceived. God is NOT a man – You can’t BUY or BRIBE Him to get through in life and grace.

Sometimes people or some Church folks think they can outsmart God in their religion or religious acts. I do really wonder! But why? Probably their thinking is this: Paying up TITHE/TITHING and OFFERING, giving a SPECIAL DONATION to denominational Church/Churches in kind/cash; or giving a special donation towards CHARITY/CHARITABLE CAUSES and many more such likes, that makes them win God’s heart’s or attention and gives them automatic right or qualifies them into God’s presence or have first class ANSWERS to PRAYERS and or REDEMPTION benefits. Really? I don’t think so Scripturally.

“God is NOT a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? 20 Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it” Numbers 23:19-20.

Am SORRY to say to any that the Kingdom of God has NO short cut access or BRIBERY windows for such self-consumed or consummated intent. For God can’t be DECEIVED or MOCKED at all, for in Him, you REAP on HOW and WHAT you sow – (Galatians 6:6-8). And it’s simply because there are more important, primary or heavier or weightier matters. It’s called and it’s about LIVING the life of – JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITH/FAITHFULNESS in cause of the OTHER obedience in TITHE/TITHING as well.

Jesus said, while you OUGHT TO, that is, to pay up your TITHE/TITHING and give towards your CHARITY/CHARITABLE CAUSES, you CAN’T NEGLECT to live WITHOUT the WEIGHTIER matters of life as to – JUSTICE, MERCY and FAITH/FAITHFULNESS.

Therefore, both ends of the coin are not only ESSENTIALS but are CREDENTIALS to avert WOES into one’s LIFE and LIVELIHOOD. This is the VERDICT of the Lord Jesus Christ not of me or any there you may have grudge and resentment against. You then – THINK.

YOU NEED TO PONDER And MEDITATE. DON’T DECEIVE YOURSELF. It’s WISDOM NUGGETS to your life TODAY and your fulfillment TOMORROW.

TITHE/TITHING IT’S NOT ENOUGH – Until You LIVE The LIFE of – JUSTICE, MERCY AND FAITH (FAITHFULNESS) IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. FOR YOU CAN’T BRIBE, BUY AND OUTSMART GOD.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] SCRIBES and PHARISEES, HYPOCRITES! For you give a TENTH (TITHE) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on MINOR matters], and have neglected the WEIGHTIER [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: JUSTICE and MERCY and FAITH [FAITHFULNESS]; but THESE are the [primary] things you OUGHT to have done WITHOUT NEGLECTING the others” Matthew 23:23 (Amplified).

“Then the PHARISEES went and conspired together plotting how to trap Him by [distorting] what He said. 16 They sent their disciples to Him, along with the HERODIANS, saying, “Teacher, we know that You are sincere and that You teach the way of God truthfully, without concerning Yourself about [what] anyone [thinks or says of Your teachings]; for You are impartial and do not seek anyone’s favor [and You treat all people alike, regardless of status]. 17 Tell us then, what do You think? Is it permissible [according to Jewish law and tradition] to PAY a poll-tax to Caesar, or not?” 18 But Jesus, aware of their malice, asked, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites? 19 Show me the coin used for the poll-tax.” And they brought Him a denarius [a day’s wage]. 20 And Jesus said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” 21 They said, “[The Emperor Tiberius] Caesar’s.” Then He said to them, “THEN PAY TO CAESAR THE THINGS THAT ARE CAESAR’S; AND TO GOD THE THINGS THAT ARE GOD’S.” 22 When they heard this, they were caught off guard, and they left Him and went away” Matthew 22:15-22 (Amplified).

KINGDOM ESSENTIALS

KINGDOM ESSENTIALS: THEY ARE THE GRACIOUS AND GRACEFUL ACTS OF DOING LIFE AND LIVING GODLY!

The cause For THANKS, PRAYERS and REMEMBRANCE has always been of THREE gracious and graceful KINGDOM ESSENTIALS and ACTS of doing life and living godly, in the Lord Christ Jesus.

These essentials and acts of doing life and living godly are:

* The WORK of FAITH

* The LABOUR of LOVE

* The PATIENCE of HOPE

I would love you to ponder about them and measure yourself in the light of the scriptures if you are indeed standing sure on the gracious and graceful ESSENTIALS and ACTS of the Lord God – that WORTH remembering. If otherwise, awake from your slumbering and backsliding state and get back on your feet again while its day and called today. And every grace and speed will be yours again in the Lord.

I pray you have a blessed, gracious and graceful day, today. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK of FAITH, and LABOUR of LOVE, and PATIENCE of HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-4 Emphasis Mine.

“And now abideth FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, these three; but the greatest of these is Love” 1 Corinthians 13:13 Emphasis Mine.

“BEWARE (TAKE HEED), brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of UNBELIEF in departing from the living God; 13 but exhort one another daily, while it is called “TODAY,” lest any of you be HARDENED through the DECEITFULNESS of sin. 14 For we have become PARTAKERS of Christ if we hold the beginning of our CONFIDENCE steadfast to the end, 15 while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not HARDEN your HEARTS as in the REBELLION (PROVOCATION)” Hebrews 3:12-15.

WISDOM NUGGETS – The FAITH That WORKS

By Leave a Comment

WISDOM NUGGETS – The FAITH That WORKS: It PLEASES God through DILIGENCE!

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

The FAITH that WORKS, that is, productive and results oriented, is the FAITH that Is expressed through DILIGENCE. For diligence PLEASE God, and thus it locates and positions one effortlessly with kings – nobility, dignity and honor instead of the obscured, unproductive and mean men.

“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he maketh even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

And when you PLEASE God by your diligent ways, He makes the ENEMY and COHORTS to be at PEACE with you. What a better way to keep your enemy and cohorts at bay effortless in LIFE and GRACE, in order to keep you advancing the Kingdom Causes of our Good.

And DILIGENCE is to be steadfast, steadily steady, earnestly earnest , smartly smart, energetic effort and consistently consistence onto the set and or given focus; and being SMART – effectual and efficient to accomplish the desired intent.

Know full well that life in grace is not by HARDWORKING, it’s by being SMARTWORKING.

The FAITH That WORKS – PLEASES God through DILIGENCE. And PLEASING God REWARDS Through DILIGENCE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
