OUR FAITH – THE VICTORY
OUR FAITH – THE VICTORY: THE SPIRITUAL, VITAL AND LEGAL TENDER TO DO LIFE AND KINGDOM BUSINESS ON EARTH
“HOLDING the MYSTERY OF THE FAITH in a PURE conscience” 1 Timothy 3:9.
FAITH is not a DOCTRINE or CREED or BYE-LAWS and such like and has NONE on it. It is SPIRITUAL, LEGAL and VITAL to our Christian Walk transactions; and it’s imperative and important in helping us in becoming that which God intended us to be. Faith is of God and the only scriptural possible means to PLEASE God. It is a product of the Spirit and it’s synergised by the Word of God (John 6:63; Romans 10:17; Hebrews 11). FAITH comes at the hearing and Faith goes away at No continuous hearing of the WORD of God – meaning FAITH realisation and actualisation is depending on the CONTINUOUS response to the WORD of God (Romans 10:17; John 8:30-32; Acts 20:32; 2 Timothy 2:15; 2 Timothy 3:14-17).
Currently in the World, the DE FACTO to exchange is the US Dollar. If one transacts business outside another nations acceptable legal tender say Dollars ‘$’ for USA or Pound Sterling ‘£’ for United Kingdom and such like, your action will warrant a fake trafficking and an arrest will take place no matter who you are. In the same scenario, there’s no single being that has walked on the face of the earth with meaningful and achievable kingdom results that has nothing to show from a life of FAITH – for its the ONLY legal and vital tender between the Heavenly and Earthly, in all LIFE and GODLY LIVING business affairs.
Hence there is the need to WALK IN FAITH and most importantly CONTEND in Life FOR THE FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. AMEN. The reason is because Faith is the Victory by which life warfare can be dealt with and overcome in every level of life in the world EARTHLY affairs (1 John 5:4-5; Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17; Jude 1:3-4; 1 Peter 5:8-11).
Faith is bringing the unseen to the seen (2 Corinthians 4:13, 18). God deals with all according to: ‘THE’ measure of Faith and not by ‘A’ measure of faith. That makes the vehicle ‘FAITH’ spiritual, vital and legal tender to all of life endeavours, kingdom business advancement, and in keeping the enemy and cohorts at bay.
Therefore, keep your walk of FAITH alive and steadily steady in all LIFE and GODLY LIVING ramifications. All things are POSSIBLE unto them whose FAITH are ACTING on whom and what they BELIEVE of God in His WORD by the Holy Spirit. Amen – Mark 9:23; Mark 10:27 and Matthew 19:26.

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE
BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS
BE EMBOLDENED – TO TAKE AND MAKE A STAND ON YOUR FAITH IN THE GRACE
THE ENTRANCE OF THE WORD
WE’VE BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS
WE’VE BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS: NO MORE FISHING ON YOUR HURTS AND YOUR PAST – WHEN YOU’VE BEING JUSTIFIED!
“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, ACQUITTED of sin, DECLARED BLAMELESS before God] BY FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have PEACE with God [and the JOY OF RECONCILIATION with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS BY FAITH into this [remarkable state of] GRACE in which we [firmly and safely and securely] STAND. Let us REJOICE in our HOPE and the CONFIDENT ASSURANCE of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the MANIFESTATION of His EXCELLENCE and POWER]” Romans 5:1-2/AMP.
Are you struggling to FORGIVE and FORGET? Do you still go FISHING the PAST to hunt and hurt the PRESENT? Do you wants to live WHOLE again from bitterness, anger, wrath, revenge and more? There’s hope in REDEMPTION. You can possess your WHOLENESS in Redemption again. And when you are – BEING JUSTIFIED BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS there’s NO MORE FISHING EXPEDITION ON YOUR PAST AND YOUR HURTS, because FORGIVENESS and FORGETFULNESS is MADE POSSIBLE in the JUSTIFICATION OF GOD – in CHRIST JESUS on your behalf – that’s the gracious and BLESSEDNESS our REDEMPTION.
“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH NOT HIS ANGER FOR EVER, because he DELIGHTETH in mercy. 19 He will turn again, he will have COMPASSION upon us; he will SUBDUE our INIQUITIES; and thou wilt CAST ALL their SINS into the DEPTHS of the sea” Micah 7:18-19.
In today’s society – individuals, families, businesses, communities, and nations, governments and governances are been ruin everyday by everyway because of the inability to not FORGIVE and to FORGET; and more importantly, to moved FORWARD from the past and hurts, and moved in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, in God’s given grace and BLESSEDNESS to succeed in Christ Jesus stead.
“We know that we have PASSED from death unto life, because we LOVE the brethren. He that LOVETH NOT his brother ABIDETH in DEATH. 15 Whosoever HATETH his brother is a MURDERER: and ye know that NO MURDERER hath ETERNAL LIFE ABIDING in him. 16 Hereby PERCEIVE we the LOVE of God, because He LAID DOWN His life for us: and we OUGHT TO LAY DOWN our lives for the brethren” 1 John 3:14-16.
The ability to forgive YOURSELF, forgive OTHERS and accept GOD’S forgiveness will guarantee you the graciousness and gracefulness to live WHOLE in FORGETFULNESS and become free from the cancerous monster of BITTERNESS, ANGER, REVENGE, WRATH, WICKEDNESS and such like – the more.
I make bold to say that to be WHOLE in spirit, soul and body, the antidote to forgive and forget with ease, is to let JUSTIFICATION play the means route and role in all forms of FORGIVENESS. That’s the gateway to FORGETFULNESS in moving FORWARD – that is, in an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, on what God DID in Christ Jesus for us all, in order to be WHOLE again in Him. Romans 5:1-2.
He did not only FORGIVES us IN our sins and shortfalls of evils and wickedness and more, but JUSTIFIED us, which is an antidote, so that we CAN now access Him in our UPWARD, INWARD and ONWARD day to day life of grace.
And to JUSTIFY or BEING JUSTIFIED IN CHRIST JESUS, is to declare you guiltless, discharge and free, that is, to be ACQUITTED, as if you’ve never done what you’ve been accused of or have done because Jesus made Himself the sin for our redemption [2 Corinthians 5:21]. For this is what God accomplished by using the eternal DONE work of grace that Jesus Christ DID in our REDEMPTION, to set us FREE without accusations, ensuring and assuring that there’s NO FISHING NET of REMEMBRANCE and our PAST attached, thereby making us a NEW CREATION [2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Galatians 6:14-16]; God by justification did all the enumerated in Christ Jesus, in order to ERASE our PAST, as He ensure and assure that our INIQUITIES has been BURIED in the sea of FORGETFULNESS – and NO MORE THE FISHING of the PAST to HURT and HUNT your TODAY and TOMORROW in Christ Jesus stead. AMEN.
“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH NOT HIS ANGER FOR EVER, because he DELIGHTETH in mercy. 19 He will turn again, he will have COMPASSION upon us; he will SUBDUE our INIQUITIES; and thou wilt CAST ALL their SINS into the DEPTHS of the SEA [OF FORGETFULNESS]” Micah 7:18-19/Emphasis Mine.
Therefore I make bold to say you and to all, that to the NEW CREATION in Christ Jesus has no PAST because we’ve BEING JUSTIFIED BY IN CHRIST JESUS. And when you act in same like spirit TOWARD others, you will LIVE FREE from and of – BITTERNESS, ANGER, WRATH, FEAR, WORRY, REVENGE and such like the more; otherwise it will hunt and hurt you as a cancerous disease, especially on you the one who refuses to both FORGIVE and FORGET but go about nursing grudges in sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation as you do life and do godly in Christ Jesus.
IT’S EXPENSIVE TO CARRY RESENTMENT AND WRATH – IT’S LIKE TAKING PARACETAMOL MEDICINES FOR ANOTHER PERSON HEADACHES – THEREFORE, NO MORE FISHING ON YOUR HURT – FORGIVENESS AND FORGETFULNESS IS POSSIBLE IN REDEMPTION – THROUGH JUSTIFICATION ACTS AND PROCESSES OF REDEMPTION IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.
I pray you God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in this knowing and understanding, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by faith into this GRACE wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God . . . 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 BUT GOD COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US. 9 Much more then, being now JUSTIFIED by his blood, we shall be SAVED FROM WRATH through him. 10 For if, when we were ENEMIES, we were RECONCILED to God by the death of his Son, much more, BEING RECONCILED, we shall be SAVED BY HIS LIFE. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now RECEIVED the atonement” Romans 5:1-2, 5-11.
“Who is a God like unto thee, that PARDONETH iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he RETAINETH NOT HIS ANGER FOR EVER, because he DELIGHTETH in mercy. 19 He will turn again, he will have COMPASSION upon us; he will SUBDUE our iniquities; and thou wilt CAST ALL their SINS into the DEPTHS of the sea” Micah 7:18-19.
“Therefore if ANY man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: old things are PASSED away; behold, all things are BECOME NEW . . . 21 For he hath MADE him to be SIN FOR US, who KNEW NO SIN; that we might be MADE the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.
“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.
“Therefore if thine ENEMY HUNGER, FEED him; if he THIRST, GIVE HIM DRINK: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not OVERCOME of evil, but overcome evil with good” Romans 12:20-21.
“Herein is our LOVE made PERFECT (MATURE, COMPLETE, WHOLE), that we may have BOLDNESS in the day of JUDGMENT (CHALLENGE): BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is NO FEAR IN LOVE; but PERFECT (MATURE, COMPLETE, WHOLE) LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18 Emphasis Mine.
“We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we LOVE the brethren. He that LOVETH NOT his brother ABIDETH in DEATH. 15 Whosoever HATETH his brother is a MURDERER: and ye know that NO MURDERER hath ETERNAL LIFE ABIDING in him. 16 Hereby PERCEIVE we the LOVE of God, because he LAID DOWN his life for us: and we OUGHT TO LAY DOWN our lives for the brethren” 1 John 3:14-16.
“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 (MATURE, COMPLETE, WHOLE), even as your Father which is in heaven is PERFECT (MATURE, COMPLETE, WHOLE)” Matthew 5:43-48 Emphasis Mine.
“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.
“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 GOSPEL MADE ME – AND MADE THE DIFFERENCE IN ME
THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD FOR HUMAN EMANCIPATION
THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN
THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN: WORKING INSIDE OUT!
“For we [who ARE born-again have been reborn from above—spiritually TRANSFORMED, RENEWED, SET APART for His PURPOSE and] ARE the TRUE CIRCUMCISION, who WORSHIP IN the Spirit of God and glory and take pride and exult IN Christ Jesus and place no confidence [in what we HAVE or who we ARE] IN the flesh” Philippians 3:3/AMP.
It is the SYNERGY that’s within that ENERGISES and makes all the DIFFERENCE, and it’s all about these:
* The GRACE Within,
* The FAITH Within,
* The WORD Within,
* The POWER Within.
FOR WE:
* Are Saved and grown by GRACE
* Are to Live and triumph by FAITH
* Are Sustained and maintained by the WORD and
* Are Empowered by the HOLY SPIRIT – to enable us to thrive, fulfill purpose meaningfully, in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
For we ARE the New creation JEW that’s of the heart [the spirit] and INWARDLY ARE – Spirited, Hearted, Reborn, Recreated, Circumcised, Called, Justified, Predestined, Foreknown, Chosen, Accepted, Blessed, Made, Qualified, Glorified, Purposed, Sanctified, Renewed, Transformed, Delivered, Translated, Forgiven and more . . . in Christ Jesus.
“For he is not a Jew, which is one OUTWARDLY; neither is that circumcision, which is OUTWARD in the flesh: 29 but he is a Jew, which is one INWARDLY; and circumcision is that of the HEART, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God” Romans 2:28-29.
“And we KNOW that ALL THINGS work together for good to those who LOVE God, to those who are the CALLED according to His PURPOSE. 29 For whom He FOREKNEW, He also PREDESTINED to be CONFORMED to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He PREDESTINED, these He also CALLED; whom He called, these He also JUSTIFIED; and whom He justified, these He also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30/NKJV.
Therefore, be ENERGISED and let it be that THE SYNERGY IS WITHIN – WORKING INSIDE OUT. For the working within is about what God in Christ Jesus has DONE IN you by His grace, through faith in His word by the Holy Spirit.
“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.
It’s knowing and living through what’s IN you, that makes what it’s done FOR you by God in Christ Jesus meaningful and purposeful. What’s done IN you, that’s what you can actualised to become your reality in order to ENSURE what’s done FOR you in the GRACE, through FAITH by the WORD in the POWER of the Holy Spirit that’s given to us.
“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad IN our HEARTS [INNERMOST BEING, 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 5:5, 8.
It’s my earnest of prayers that what is done IN you that’s within you, will becomes your reality in doing life and living godly by God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
Be Blessed.
