MONTH FEBRUARY: THE FAITH THAT WORKS: EXPRESSES THROUGH LOVE! 

There’s no geographical location or situation that can stop your position and altitude in life when your Faith Works By Love. 

I know Faith as the mystery, the vital & legal currency, and the medium of exchange to access the heavens and to give the heavenly permission in one’s earthly affairs. Yet you can only genuinely blossom and colour your worlds anywhere and any day with God when your ‘Faith Works By Love’. 

Be it in relationship, family, ministry, charitable causes, career, business, marital and governance, the Faith That Works By Love is inevitable and inescapable. For love is the ultimate, a most and more excellent way to express spiritual grace and endowment. Hence expressing ‘The Faith That Works By Love’, you can thrive and blossom in any weather of life: Winter, Autumn, Spring or Summer. 

This I saw in God through Christ, that’s why I am assured and now recommend it to you and for you. I have come to know and understand today more than ever before of the graciousness and gracefulness and speed in motion when one exercises and expresses life through ‘The Faith That Works By Love’. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but FAITH which WORKETH by LOVE” (Galatians 5:6). 

“While the EARTH remaineth, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, and COLD and HEAT, and SUMMER and Winter, and DAY and NIGHT shall not CEASE” Genesis 8:22. 

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 Greater LOVE hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” John 15:13-15. 

“A NEW commandment I give unto you, That ye LOVE one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:34-35. 

“Let LOVE be without HYPOCRISY. ABHOR what is EVIL. Cling to what is good. 10 Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly LOVE, in honour giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality. 14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. 17 Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. 19. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing, you will heap coals of fire on his head.” 21. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good” Romans 12:9-21. NKJV. 

“If thine ENEMY be hungry, GIVE him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, GIVE him water to drink: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22. 

“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, LOVE your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect” Matthew 5:43-48.

THE FAITH THAT WORKS: IS FOUNDED, ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN THE LOVE OF CHRIST!

THE FAITH THAT WORKS: IS FOUNDED, ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN THE LOVE OF CHRIST! 

“For [if we ARE] in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but only FAITH ACTIVATED and EXPRESSED and WORKING through LOVE” Galatians 5:6/Amplified. 

There’s no geographical location or situation that can stop or prevent your position and altitude in life when your FAITH WORKS BY LOVE.  

I know Faith as the mystery, the vital and legal currency, and the medium of exchange to access the heavens from earth, and to give the heavenly permission in one’s earthly affairs. Yet you can only genuinely blossom, rejuvenate, thrive and colour your worlds anywhere and any day with God when your ‘FAITH WORKS BY LOVE’. Love is the only beautiful gift given to us by God that’s pure, to SERVE others without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. Simply because Love is the lubricant that makes and ensures FAITH for effective communication and enables us to be assured of being justified by faith and to have access by faith to our God in the grace. 

“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 5:13/Amplified. 

“LOVE is to be SINCERE and ACTIVE [the real thing—WITHOUT GUILE AND HYPOCRISY]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good. 10. Be DEVOTED to one another with [authentic] BROTHERLY AFFECTION [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor” Romans 12:9-10/Amplified. 

“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 [LAVISHED] abroad in our HEARTS [SPIRIT-BEING] by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:1-2. 

Be it in person and general relationship, family, ministry, charitable causes, career, business, marital relationship and governance, the FAITH THAT WORKS BY LOVE is inevitable, indescribable and inescapable for any that desire to THRIVE and not be a SURVIVAL. For love is the ultimate, hallmark, hub, fulcrum, the most and more excellent way to express spiritual grace and endowment in Life and GODLINESS with God in Christ Jesus stead. Hence, expressing ‘THE FAITH THAT WORKS BY LOVE’, you can thrive and blossom in any weather of life: WINTER, AUTUMN, SPRING OR SUMMER. 

“The earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and COLD and HEAT, and SUMMER and WINTER, and day and night shall not cease” Genesis 8:22. 

This I saw in God through Christ, that’s why I am assured and now recommend it to you and for you. I have come to know and understand today more than ever before of the graciousness and gracefulness and speed in motion when one exercise and express life through ‘THE FAITH THAT WORKS BY LOVE’ in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

“But covet EARNESTLY the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a MORE EXCELLENT WAY . . . ” 1 Corinthians 12:31/1 Corinthians 13:1-13. 

“A NEW COMMANDMENT I give unto you, That ye LOVE one another; as I have LOVED you, that ye also LOVE one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to another” John 13:34-35. 

“Greater LOVE hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you” John 15:13-14. 

“Let LOVE BE WITHOUT DISSIMULATION. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with BROTHERLY LOVE; in honour preferring one another; 11 not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 13 distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality” Romans 12:9-12.

HOLDING FORTH UNTO FAITH: FOR YOU ARE – “GOD’S BATTLE AXE & WEAPONS OF WAR

HOLDING FORTH UNTO FAITH: FOR YOU ARE – “GOD’S BATTLE AXE & WEAPONS OF WAR”! 

“Thou art MY BATTLE AXE and WEAPONS OF WAR: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms; 21 and with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider; 22 with thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid; 23 I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers” Jeremiah 51:20-23. 

There are LIFE BATTLES, knowingly or unknowingly. And these Life BATTLES are real to All. But the greatest of ALL life battles is the BATTLE of your FAITH in Christ. And there’s an ENEMY and COHORTS fighting daily, going to and fro, roaring aggressively and looking for any avenue and opportunity to devour you of your FAITH in Christ. You need to know full well that the ENEMY and COHORTS know that if they can get hold of your FAITH, EVERYTHING about you will be DEVOURED. 

Your FAITH in Christ Jesus’ stead is the VICTORY and TRIUMPH that overcomes the WORLD’S SYSTEM, which is run and controlled by the ENEMY and his COHORTS against your wellbeing in Christ Jesus. Hence when the ENEMY and his COHORTS roar or attacks you in its acts of operandi, you need to know and understand that its actual PRIMARY aim and objective are not after your MONEY, FAMILY, CAREER, RELATIONSHIP, BUSINESS, MINISTRY or SUCH LIKE. Its PRIMARY intent is that you GIVE UP and QUIT on your FAITH, for your FAITH is the ONLY divinely instilled DEFAULT and mechanism that OVERCOMES and ENACT your REDEMPTION in humanity, to live and do life in every way in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. 

Hence, we are enjoined to HOLD FAST to FAITH in order to FIGHT a GOOD FIGHT of FAITH in any life BATTLES. Therefore, BUILD UP your most Holy FAITH, as a way of PREPAREDNESS to life’s daily BATTLES, in order to SOAR IN DOMINION this year 2026. 

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. 9 But resist him, be firm in your faith [against his attack—rooted, established, immovable], knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being experienced by your brothers and sisters throughout the world. [You do not suffer alone.] 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be]” 1 Peter 5:8-10 (Amplified). 

“The HORSE is PREPARED for the DAY of BATTLE, But deliverance and victory belong to the Lord” Proverbs 21:31. 

“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. 

“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” 1 Timothy 6:12. 

“For everyone born of God is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world; and this is the VICTORY that has CONQUERED and OVERCOME the world—our [continuing, persistent] FAITH [in Jesus the Son of God]. 5 Who is the one who is VICTORIOUS and OVERCOMES the world? It is the one who believes and recognizes the fact that Jesus is the Son of God” 1 John 5:4-5 (Amplified).

TO ENSURE THE POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT 

By Leave a Comment

TO ENSURE THE POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT: DON’T GIVE UP OR QUIT ON YOUR FAITH JOURNEY IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD! 

“For WHATSOEVER is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and THIS IS the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5. 

I learnt early in my Christian walk in Christ Jesus stead, by the various factors and happenings and challenges that came my way that VICTORY and TRIUMPH is possible in Christ, when I hold on to my FAITH in the context of the Scriptures, because FAITH goes killing GIANTS when all things comes to a HALT. Hence, I am emboldened to say to you emphatically today – DON’T GIVE UP OR QUIT ON YOUR FAITH, NO MATTER WHAT BESIEGE and BETIDE YOU AS ITS CALLED TODAY. For God will give you the enabling assurance in His grace, to ensure you can ABOUND and ABASED in every way in Christ Jesus stead, in order to ensure you are fulfilled in every way in His grace and BLESSEDNESS. 

“Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have LEARNED, in whatsoever STATE I am, therewith to be CONTENT. 12. I know both how to be ABASED, and I know how to ABOUND: everywhere and in all things, I am INSTRUCTED both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ which STRENGTHENETH me” Philippians 4:11-13. 

You need to know that the ENEMY and COHORTS first, final and utmost aim day and night against you is always on your FAITH and nothing else – more or less; for the enemy and cohorts knows the powerful effect of your faith against its works and more so, in the knowing that by FAITH you are JUSTIFIED and by FAITH you have ACCESS to God to stand in the grace wherein you can thrive, live and reign in life no matter how many times you fall and fail in things as long as you are steadily steady and keep keeping on, focus on Christ Jesus on your redemption rights and privileges in Him. 

“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. 

And all the intent of the enemy and cohorts activities toward you, is nothing else, but ALL about, for you to just GIVE UP on your FAITH on your REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus, and he will then take over you, and by then you are DONE away with, from all the OTHER meaningful, purposeful and colourful things such as your – Relationship, Career, Business, Finance, Health, Family and such like. In essence, the ENEMY and COHORTS are out to MESS up your FAITH and DISCONNECT you from God in Christ Jesus, in order to give them ACCESS to ruin every other matter about you. Hence, you need to be sober, alert, vigilant, and steadfast in the FAITH as it’s written in the Holy writ. 

“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. 10 But the God of ALL GRACE, who hath CALLED us unto his ETERNAL GLORY by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT (WHOLE, MATURE, COMPLETE), STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you” 1 Peter 5:8-10. 

And by you taking a FAITH stand in your redemption in Christ Jesus upon the WORD of God, you can turn ANY MESS UP of today into a MESSAGE by ANCHORING and SYNCHRONISING your FAITH steadfastly in God on every GOOD THING DONE IN YOU by Christ Jesus. Amen. 

“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. 

Hence, you must know that your FAITH is PRECIOUS and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for you to guard it jealously and steadfastly. 2 Peter 1:1-2; Proverbs 4:23. 

IN ORDER TO ENSURE THE POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT, YOU NEED NOT GIVE UP OR QUIT ON YOUR FAITH JOURNEY – IT’S THE HALLMARK OF LIVING THE EXALTED AND TRIUMPHANT AND THRIVING AND PURPOSEFUL AND MEANINGFUL AND FULFILLING LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. 

The enemy and cohorts know that your FAITH is the only PRECIOUS and CHIEF TREASURE to WRITE and REWRITE your story from the state of: 

  • Disappointment to appointment 
  • Failure to success 
  • Sickness to healing and health 
  • Poverty to prosperity 
  • Sin to righteousness 
  • Disgrace to grace 
  • Mess to Message 
  • Shame to fame 
  • Curse to blessing 
  • . . . And much more like. 

Your FAITH is your VICTORY and TESTIMONY over ALL matters of doing life and living godly for these simple and awesome reason though not limited to these only: 

  • It’s the MYSTERY of grace to TRIUMPH 
  • It’s the stirring gear to Living THE GREATER LIFE. 
  • It pleases God and its reward is AWESOMELY AWESOME. 
  • It’s your EARTHLY currency to cause the HEAVENLY to answer your EARTHLY demands. 
  • It’s the Father God recommended CONTACT in Christ Jesus, to reach Him expressly. 
  • It’s your ARMOURY to put to flight your ENEMY & COHORTS master plans. 
  • It’s your creative tool to ACHIEVE, THRIVE, REJUVENATE and to define the ATMOSPHERE you love to see and enjoy. 
  • For FAITH is NOW, to help ease any earthly transactions with the heavens. 
  • . . . And many such acts and doings. 

Therefore, TREASURE your FAITH. DON’T GIVE IT UP or GIVE UP ON IT for whatsoever REASON. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“For WHATSOEVER is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and THIS IS the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5. 

“HOLDING the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE conscience” 1 Timothy 3:9. 

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

“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. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 NOW THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul” Hebrews 10:35-39. 

“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. 

“Now FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen. 2. For 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 [God]: 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/Emphasis Mine. 

“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. 

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

“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. 

“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.

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]

By Leave a Comment

CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]; IT’S ABOUT LIVING IN THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF KNOWING THAT YOU HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST!  

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that love him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit SEARCHETH all things, yea, the deep things of God . . . 14 But the NATURAL MAN receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are FOOLISHNESS unto him: neither can he KNOW them, because they are SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED. 15 But he that is SPIRITUAL JUDGE [EXAMINE] all things, yet he himself is JUDGED [EXAMINE] of no man. 16 For who hath KNOWN THE MIND of the Lord, that he may INSTRUCT him? BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST” 1 Corinthians 2:9-16. 

When Apostle Paul was writing to the mixed multitude Corinthians Church that’s so gifted, as the scripture does indicates that thy lack not behind in spiritual gifting [1 Corinthians 1:7], and yet they were swimming with various vices; he then sensed of their lack of knowledge, and their inability to understand and comprehend spiritual things that they were endowed and endued with to function in the grace. For they were so gifted, but their inability to decipher the spiritual man from the natural man that has been reborn [redeemed] was concerning to him; and more so, they were filled with the Holy Spirit of revelation, which is for them to articulate the mind of God in wisdom – where wisdom is the application of knowledge. It thus means, being gifted without operating in wisdom to bring it forth into a reality  

In 1 Corinthians 2:1-8, he wrote to them as to us of today of the necessity to live by God’s wisdom if we must excel and be exceptional in living above the conscript of the princes of this world in their unwise way of not able to know the mind of God concerning the cross of human redemption until Christ Jesus by the rugged cross of crucifixion SAVED [REDEEMED] us. And in 1 Corinthians 2:9-10, he made known of how the Holy Spirit can reveal to us the mind of God on things about us that no eyes have seen, ears have not heard or neither has entered into the heart of any man knowingly, because of the love for God within us for Him. And Apostle Paul concluded, that by the virtue of our spiritual [reborn] disposition over the natural [unborn] dispositions, we have the MIND of Christ Jesus, to examine and make wise judgement in decisions in the grace over anything. That’s what makes the CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE], to take hold of us and make us walk in the wisdom of God that transcends and surpasses the wisdom of this world [1 Corinthians 2:1-8]. For Christ Jesus in us, is the wisdom of God and the power of God [1 Corinthians 1:18-24, 30] to enable us do life and live godly with God’s speed in His stead, in this present world. 

And it’s for the consciousness of making the day to day wise judgement as the reborn of God, we are admonished in 2 Corinthians 13:5-6, to always examine [make self judgement of] ourselves if we are still on track with the MIND of Christ Jesus in our day to day decision, as we do life and live in godliness – except we ARE reprobates [hardened, unexamined, unprincipled], but we ARE not reprobates as Believers of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“EXAMINE yourselves, whether ye be in the FAITH; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is IN you, except ye be REPROBATES? 6 But I trust that ye shall know that we ARE NOT REPROBATES” 2 Corinthians 13:5-6. 

And Apostle Paul was able to X-ray and charge the Philippians Church in Philippians 2:1-11, with a taste of what it means and takes to have the MIND of Christ Jesus in a different perspective and context from the Corinthians Church. He spoke to them and to us of the essence to cultivate – the spirit of consolation, of comfort, of fellowship, of mercies, of oneness, of one mind of humility of respect to esteem others and such like. He likened it to the MIND of Christ Jesus toward God while in humanity, that earned Him the exaltation of the Father God wherein for today and always for all eternity, that at the NAME of Jesus, His NAME becomes ANSWER to all human QUEST; and His NAME is above all names that all mankind must BOW and KNEE to at the mentioning of the name, as He earned from the Father God without controversy. What an attribute. What a priceless tag. What a life to live in CHRISTLIKENESS [BEING CHRISTLIKE]. That’s what the MIND of Christ Jesus can reproduce in us as we walk in His mind context and default in us – for we have the mind of Christ Jesus as a default in the reborn spirit of our salvation. Make it a living consciousness for you and all about you that are reborn – the New Creation as written: 

“If there be therefore ANY CONSOLATION in Christ, if ANY COMFORT of love, if ANY FELLOWSHIP of the Spirit, if ANY BOWELS AND MERCIES, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be LIKEMINDED, having the same love, being of ONE ACCORD, of ONE MIND. 3. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in LOWLINESS OF MIND let each ESTEEM other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU, WHICH WAS ALSO IN CHRIST JESUS: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he HUMBLED himself, and became OBEDIENT unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly EXALTED Him, and GIVEN Him a NAME which is ABOVE every name: 10 that at the NAME of Jesus every KNEE should BOW, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every TONGUE should CONFESS that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the GLORY of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11. 

I therefore say to you to live in your onward and upward trajectory, in the consciousness of knowing that you have the MIND OF CHRIST JESUS, and you can by the indwelling Holy Spirit judge [examine] rightly all things by the scriptural default in context unlike the natural man [unborn] in Christ Jesus. Stop living in self-defeat as one who can’t make wise judgement on things and always beckoning on others to make private and personal decisions for you while being deceived always as a prey and victim for this agent of darkness. And it’s unfortunate that many have become vulnerable to a fault in many ways to such a crafty, cunning and devouring false brethren that have creeped in to steal, kill and destroy as many innocent ones in the faith as they are cohorts of satan that appears and camouflaged as brethren. 

Today, reboot your mind and reset it to synchronise your spirit being and be transformed by the WORD of God that can refresh and renew your mind to begin a new consciousness of having the Mind of Christ Jesus as a reborn child of God, that no man can deceive any more. This will help you to wisely ARTICULATE and PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God for your well-being as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, ACCEPTABLE unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may PROVE what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of God” Romans 12:1-2. 

“That ye PUT OFF concerning the former CONVERSATION [CONDUCT] the old man, which is CORRUPT according to the deceitful lusts; 23 and be RENEWED in the spirit of YOUR MIND; 24 and that ye PUT ON the new man, which after God is CREATED in RIGHTEOUSNESS and TRUE HOLINESS” Ephesians 4:22-24. 

I pray that you become what God’s WORD says you ARE and can be, without a shadow of turning, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. I want you to say it repeatedly until it begins to take hold of you by all means: “I HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST” in me.  

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance. 12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, And the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain; They shout for joy, they also sing” Psalms 65:11-13/NKJV. 

“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: 29 whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily” Colossians 1:27-29. 

“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ . . . 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain . . . 27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel” Philippians 1:6, 21, 27. 

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, 2 fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:1-11. 

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed, is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you” Philippians 3:1-15. 

“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. 

“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.

RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS: KEEP OFF FROM SIN [SINNING] ACT

By Leave a Comment

RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS: KEEP OFF FROM SIN [SINNING] ACT – IT’S NOT JUST A MISTAKE OR AN ERROR – BUT UNGODLINESS WITH GOD! 

“Be NOT deceived: EVIL communications CORRUPT good manners. 34 Awake to RIGHTEOUSNESS, and SIN NOT; for some have NOT the KNOWLEDGE of God: I speak this to your shame” 1 Corinthians 15:33-34. 

“RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS a nation, But SIN is a REPROACH to ANY people.“ Proverbs 14:34. 

Dear friend, are you intending to BECOME of God in life and grace? – how are you laying your foundation? – Is your foundation and fundamental being laid and built on God’s Righteousness or on a Sin [Sinful] act in terms. Are you laying your foundation on God’s terms in Christ Jesus or you are about your own religiosity and denominational dogmas expecting God to empower such causes or yours is on traditional laid by-law ordinance and sacrament in the name of God? I want you to know that whatever that contradicts God’s terms in Christ Jesus is an act of self-righteousness and man-made, which contravenes God’s terms, and it’s irrespective whosoever it’s ensuring and assuring such rudiments to you or before you. 

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but NOT ACCORDING TO KNOWLEDGE. 3 For they being IGNORANT of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God. 4 For Christ is the END OF THE LAW FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS to everyone that believeth” Romans 10:1-4. 

Some people think that SIN is just a MISTAKE or an ERROR in cause of life doings. It is far more than that; it’s worse than any cancerous disease and its presence in ones life can both hinder and obstruct the desired PLAN, PURPOSE AND PURSUIT in the grace that enables one to SOAR and GLIDE IN POSSIBILITIES, and to being an overcomer, being victorious, being a more than conqueror and being triumphant in doing life and living godly in the grace. 

It’s very important that you know for your good and goodness that SIN is not just a MISTAKE or an ERROR – but an act of UNGODLINESS with God; and it is only by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus stead that exalted life comes into being 

“For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of EATING and DRINKING [what one likes], but of RIGHTEOUSNESS and PEACE and JOY in the Holy Spirit” Romans 14:17 Amplified. 

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I PERCEIVE that God is NO RESPECTER of persons: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that FEARETH him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35. 

WHAT THEN IS SIN – IT IS SUM IN THESE THREE CATEGORIES AS: 

  • The human inherit nature, which is an enmity towards God, and it’s naturally bore to all mankind as a result of the fall in ADAM and EVE of Genesis. 
  • An act of transgression (overstepping) of God’s law, which is – the violation of, want of obedience to, the revealed WILL of God to mankind. 
  • A state of Iniquity, Trespass, Lawlessness and or absence of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS as fulfilled in Christ Jesus in one’s life to live wholly within. 

THE EFFECT OF SIN ARE: 

  • POVERTY 
  • SICKNESS and DISEASE  
  • SPIRITUAL DEATH:  
  • And SPIRITUAL DEATH is the absence of God or rather the rejection of Christ Jesus – who is God’s REDEMPTION answer to human failing. 
  • And SPIRITUAL DEATH leads to PHYSICAL DEATH and finally, results to ETERNAL DEATH when one ends up eventually not being Born of God in Christ Jesus. 

However, by REDEMPTION – FAITH on the finished done work of Christ – has JUSTIFIED us and given us ACCESS to a stand in God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS, which enables one to escape from death to life. Wherein one can have ACCESS and live JUSTIFIED in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Now in Christ Jesus, SIN and its EFFECT shall have NO MORE DOMINION over you as you SOAR & GLIDE in POSSIBILITIES – that is, over SIN. 

“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. 

“. . . 17 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 5:15-21. 

It’s while living under God’s RIGHTEOUS and RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS in Christ Jesus, that will enable you have dominion and leverage over SIN and SINFUL CONSCIOUSNESS. The knowing and understanding that God LOVES and CARES about you makes a great difference. And when you live under God’s REVERENTIAL FEAR you will detest SIN and pursue RIGHTEOUSNESS. For the REVERENTIAL FEAR of God is the beginning of wisdom – the application of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen. 

“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.) . . . 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. 

“For we KNOW him that hath said, VENGEANCE belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall JUDGE his people. 31 It is a FEARFUL thing to FALL into the HANDS of the living God” Hebrews 10:31-32. 

If you must glory, only GLORY in Christ Jesus RIGHTEOUSNESS in you – that’s the CONSCIOUSNESS to live the POSSIBILITIES enabling of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN AGAIN, he cannot see the kingdom of God . . . 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God . . . 16 For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is not condemned: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is condemned already, because he hath not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:3, 5, 16-18. 

“Seeing ye have PURIFIED your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 23 BEING BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever. 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: 25 but the word of the Lord endureth forever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you” 1 Peter 1:22-25. 

“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? . . . 6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. 7. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8 And there are three that BEAR WITNESS IN EARTH, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one” 1 John 5:4-5, 6-8.

START-UP YOUR DAWN YEAR LIFESTYLE WITH A GIVING HEARTS MARK

By Leave a Comment

START-UP YOUR DAWN YEAR LIFESTYLE WITH A GIVING HEARTS MARK: BE HUMANE TO GIVE WISELY OF YOUR – TIME, MONEY, MATERIAL AND EFFORT [TALENT/SKILL] – TOWARD A GIVEN CAUSE! 

“For God SO LOVED the WORLD, that He GAVE His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16. 

“GIVING HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH BEEN – RICH OR POOR. KNOW FOR SURE AND CERTAINTY THAT THE POOR DON’T GIVE, NEITHER DOES THE RICH GIVE – IT’S ONLY THE GIVERS [POOR OR RICH] THAT GIVES” Chukie MORSI Snr. 

Begin the dawn YEAR with a giving note – not every opportunity in life should ALWAYS be of monetary and self-centered gains for self-egotism and applaud. One most important act I want you to know in order to be established with the Scriptural Kingdom cause of God, especially to us as Believers of God in Christ Jesus, and among the LIVING, is to be GIVERS. 

GIVING HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH BEEN RICH OR POOR. YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT THE POOR DON’T GIVE, THE RICH DON’T GIVE – ONLY GIVERS GIVES; just as the scriptural giver WIDOW whose giving was Scripturally ascribed in the Holy writ as the widow mite – which was observed and acknowledged before Christ Jesus while the self-centred and selfish RICH, who was also ascribed and acknowledged as the RICH FOOL, as observed before Christ Jesus as written in Mark 12:41-44 and Luke 12:13-21.  

You can note now that only GIVERS as the Widow of the widow’s mite, that GIVES, because they know and understand the implication and dividend of GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in giving before God in Christ Jesus stead – without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation. 

“GIVE, and it shall be GIVEN unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall MEN GIVE into your bosom. For with the same MEASURE that ye mete withal it shall be MEASURED to you again” Luke 6:38. 

“I have SHEWED you all things, how that so LABOURING ye OUGHT TO SUPPORT THE WEAK, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is MORE BLESSED to GIVE than to RECEIVE” Acts 20:35. 

The POSSIBILITIES OF GOD in us, is a default lifestyle that requires the spirited and heartedness of a GIVING spirit of our TIME, EFFORT, MATERIAL and FINANCE to ANOTHER – for the good of others, in a healthy kingdom CAUSE; and this is an ACT of a good will and not a WISH. Hence PERFORMANCE of the WILLING heart is imperative and fundamental to all who calls God’s name in Christ Jesus stead. 

“And herein I give MY ADVICE: for this is EXPEDIENT for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago. 11 Now therefore PERFORM the DOING of it; that as there was a READINESS TO WILL, so there may be a PERFORMANCE also out of that WHICH YE HAVE. 12 For if there be first a WILLING mind, it is ACCEPTED according to that a man HATH, and not according to that he HATH NOT” 2 Corinthians 8:10-12. 

Let’s do an analysis as an example to explain this line of context: Show me a nation, community, family and individual who is committed to giving to OTHERS and other cause beyond themselves and boundaries when it comes to their TIME, MONEY (FINANCE) and EFFORT (Physical and Mental Exertion) by an act of LOVE, HOPE and FAITH, I will show you why such has PROSPERED and KEEP PROSPERING in comparison to the one that has been stingy, complaining, arguing, always taking and collecting as if it’s an entitlement while blaming, murmuring and always receiving (collecting, taking) and UNWILLING to GIVE to others or to any CHARITABLE cause in life because they THINK life is about ENTITLEMENT and not about responsibility and accountability in principle. 

For it’s MORE BLESSED to be a GIVER than a COLLECTOR and TAKER, simply for this reason – the RECEIVER will always be LESSER to the GIVER, that’s a spiritual law that works also in the natural. I learnt that first from my parents, long before I knew it’s equally from the Scriptures and it’s of God in Christ Jesus stead. 

There’s nothing wrong in RECEIVING, but only when you are a CHANNEL vessel to others too and not a DEAD end as an entitlement. A RECEIVER who doesn’t GIVE is like the DEAD SEA that RECEIVES water from many sources and NEVER GIVE out or distribute to other waterways channels. It’s called DEAD SEA because it’s salty and no living creatures are sustained in it. Don’t be a DEAD-END being, like the DEAD SEA, but be a LIVING being that is ALIVE and that BLOSSOM, REFRESHES and REJUVENATES because you are a VESSEL and CHANNEL of GRACE to others and not merely a DISPLAY ORNAMENT. 

I challenge you to arise to SOAR and GLIDE in DOMINION by GIVING, which is – Begin small, from where you are to give TIME, FINANCE (MONEY – Cash/Kind) and EFFORT (Physical and or Mental Exertion) to the cause of others, you will definitely notice the hand of God through others prospering you in God’s grace. 

The Living of the POSSIBILITIES default life as touching PROSPERITY is by GIVING and not by FASTING and PRAYERS. Fasting and prayers have their place in the kingdom. You need to give in HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to unlock your prosperity door; and not necessarily to RECEIVE also from who or those you gave. 

Make your dawn YEAR, your year of LIVING the POSSIBILITIES default life as a GIVER – meaning as an individual, family, community or a nation. Make the GIVING ACT your lifestyle in order to ACTIVATE and ENHANCE the POSSIBILITIES of God within you in Christ Jesus stead. That’s the LIFE that makes and keeps you to be – ABOVE ONLY. 

Take a step today; you will see the heavenly outpour. For God GAVE His Son Jesus Christ to us all, and by His Son GIVING His life, He got us all back again. Learn of HIM by making the GIVING ACT your lifestyle in order to ACTIVATE and ENHANCE – your POSSIBILITIES DEFAULT. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

THIS CHRISTMAS – Do it without DEBT 

By Leave a Comment

THIS CHRISTMAS – Do it without DEBT: Don’t be INDEBTED in the name of Commemoration and Celebration! 

“Every man shall GIVE AS HE IS ABLE, ACCORDING to the BLESSING of the Lord thy God which he HATH GIVEN THEE” Deuteronomy 16:17. 

“Every man ACCORDING as he PURPOSETH in his heart, so let him GIVE; not GRUDGINGLY, or of NECESSITY: for God loveth a CHEERFUL GIVER” 2 Corinthians 9:7. 

I know in essence that carrying out the UNWRITTEN DEMANDS we place on ourselves during this Christmas season in respect of GIVING, RECEIVING and SHARING GIFT and or FOOD is enormous; you must know and understand, that though it’s a good intent which I do agree and believe totally with all graciousness and gracefulness as I cherish doing, be it known also, it’s an unhealthy demand to place on yourself to accomplish when you don’t have the resources to act accordingly. We ARE permitted to give WITHIN our capacity in the grace – [Deuteronomy 16:17; 2 Corinthians 9:7]. 

I hereby suggest to you – let your actions be done with what you have as the scriptures enjoined [Deuteronomy 16:17; 2 Corinthians 9:7]; and then act accordingly, when and where you can but not in debt and indebtedness that ends you in the sickening of your well-being. For it’s MORE gracious and graceful when you can do it cheerfully without murmuring, complaining and subjecting yourself to any form of psychological and emotional unrest. 

And worst still, let not giving and sharing be done while you know that your being is spiritually disarmed to handle challenges, especially when you are behind in the repayment of some incurred indebtedness, and you know that when debt letters and or calls and or the visit of debt collectors comes knocking at your door, that the signal of depression, anguish, wrath, bitterness, regrets and such like will trigger along with other side effects.  

I don’t think Christ Jesus would APPROVE all the indebtedness that people indulge themselves in the name of Christmas celebration and commemoration. Nobody is entitled to put you into debt and indebtedness in order to keep such a person happy at your expense; for you are the CUSTODIAN of your peace and happiness and none else – so guard jealously your well-being happiness without compromise to please any before you. It’s best to live within your means – that is, within your FAITH – in the joy, happiness and grace of God in Christ Jesus. For the just in Christ shall live by his/her faith in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

“Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by HIS FAITH” Habakkuk 2:4 [Galatians 3:11; Romans 1:17; Hebrews 10:38]. 

Always know in hearts of thoughts that Jesus is risen and Enthroned. He’s no longer: 

* THE BABY IN THE MANGER 

* THE SERVANT ON THE CROSS 

He’s the Lord God on the THRONE and He LIVES, REIGNS and RULES over ALL in ALL. 

Therefore be MERRY, enjoy yourself with what you can and have available to yourself no matter how little, in the peace and grace of God in Christ Jesus stead; and where there’s more overflowing, you can then share in grace, love and peace in good will and joyfully in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS! CELEBRATE AND COMMEMORATE IT WITHOUT DEBT AND INDEBTEDNESS!! THIS CHRISTMAS: SAY NO TO INDEBTEDNESS!!! 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath DEALT to EVERY MAN the MEASURE of FAITH” Romans 12:3. 

“But unto every one of us is GIVEN GRACE according to THE MEASURE of the GIFT of Christ” Ephesians 4:7.

TO ENACT A NEVER-THE-LESS ENABLING: LAUNCH INTO THE DEEP FOR A CATCH! 

It’s a beautiful NEW DAY that the CREATOR God has MADE and not the enemy and cohorts – that’s the reason to REJOICE and be GLAD in it – now and always – in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.  

“This is the DAY which the Lord hath MADE; we will REJOICE and be GLAD in it” Psalms 118:24. 

No matter how much you’ve toiled in the last ELEVENTH MONTH, don’t give up, don’t lose heart and don’t give room to weariness and failure and self-pity decorum. You may be at the verge of your ELEVENTH HOUR to break forth into your miracles and breakthrough over all the – mountains, valleys, crooked roads and rough places – that have stood AGAINST you in entering your DESIRED PLACES; more so, be set to breakthrough into that SET gracious position that tend to have defiled you and define you by standing as an OBSTACLE to your path of fulfilment and excellence. 

All you need to do is take an extra step and walk on in the WORK of FAITH against all odds and LAUNCH into the DEEP, that is, away from the SHALLOW of  intimidation, failure, fear and mediocrity – because your hour of great catch is come, and it’s now, in God, in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

And I proclaim in the name of Jesus, that as Peter and others believe the WORD, took a STEP OF FAITH ON THE WORD by declaring a NEVER-THE-LESS, in spite of their yesterday failures, and they LAUNCH into the DEEP by the WORD for a great CATCH, in same like spirit, may you LAUNCH in faith by the WORD, get your own CATCH in Jesus precious name. Amen. And may your CATCH be in grace on WHATSOEVER it is that’s named, that you desired of God, that your joy might be full in life and in the Lord, in Jesus precious name, Amen. And may your abundance of catch enlarge you beyond bounds, in Jesus’ name, Amen. 

And may as you read this scripture of Luke 5:1-11 in full, may you receive the enabling grace to your BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“. . . 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP, and LET DOWN YOUR NETS FOR A DRAUGHT. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, and have taken nothing: NEVERTHELESS at thy WORD I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great MULTITUDE of FISHES: and their net brake. 7 And they BECKONED unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. 9 For he was ASTONISHED, and all that were with him, at the DRAUGHT of the fishes which they had taken . . .” (Luke 5:1-11)

GOD IS FAITHFUL: FAITHFULNESS IS HIS BEING NATURE!

GOD IS FAITHFUL: FAITHFULNESS IS HIS BEING NATURE! 

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

One thing is certain in life and that is – LIKE BEGAT LIKE. A tree doesn’t give birth to an animal or mammal. A Lion doesn’t give birth to a Leopard, nor a Goat give birth to a Sheep even in their proximity of likeness or characteristics. 

One need to know full well that we ARE the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture according to the Scriptures – [(Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 100:3; 1 John 4:17-18); (John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5)]. It then means that we can live a FAITHFUL life and achieve good successes with God when we dare. The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was FAITHFUL and prospered when he dared. The same grace is available to us today when we dare, irrespective of any of our challenges  toward being FAITHFUL and to prosper in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [2 Peter 1:2-4; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2; 24:1)] 

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

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

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

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“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 1:2-4. 

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

“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of judgment [QUESTIONING, CHALLENGES]: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18/Emphasis Mine. 

“Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is he that hath MADE us, and not we ourselves; we ARE his people, and the SHEEP of his pasture” Psalms 100:3. 

“God that MADE the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples MADE with hands; 25 neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26 and hath MADE of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; 27 that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: 28 FOR IN HIM WE LIVE, AND MOVE, AND HAVE OUR BEING; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his OFFSPRING. 29 Forasmuch then as we ARE the OFFSPRING of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device” Acts 17:24-29. 

“Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye ARE gods? 35 If he CALLED them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and THE SCRIPTURE CANNOT BE BROKEN” John 10:34-35. 

“I have said, Ye ARE gods; and all of you ARE children of the most High” Psalms 82:6. 

“For God doth KNOW that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be OPENED, and ye shall BE as gods, KNOWING good and evil” Genesis 3:5.
