By Leave a Comment

GOD’S POWER AND GRACE THROUGH AGAPE LOVE: IT’S GOD’S VITALITY FOR ONE TO WIN AND TRIUMPH IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING! 

“And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they spake THE WORD of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:31, 33. 

God’s love – AGAPE, it’s the vitality you need to do life and live through any phase of human endeavours by FAITH. The reason being that the LOVE of God is SHED abundantly and lavishly spread abroad in our HEARTS [the human spirit] by the Holy Ghost, and it’s not of our head else it’s PERVERSION; and God has COMMENDED His LOVE toward us in Christ Jesus, which is makes it awesome and graciously gracious. 

“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 . .8 But God commendeth His LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

As you kick starts life demands today, being another opportunity to THRIVE and not SURVIVE, if you can start LOVING genuinely from the stagnation and famine that you’ve been in God’s AGAPE love, you can then experience the working POWER and GRACE of God that enhances your FAITH to win and triumph in life. For the POWER is too FUNCTION while the GRACE is to make you BECOME of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

Herein are some SCRIPTURAL VITALITY OF LOVE for your perusal. Meditate and be blessed: 

Love gives power of initiative, is a giver, sacrificial: John 3:16-17. 

Love is the royal law for the redeemed who are a royal priesthood – kings & priests unto God: James 2:8; Revelation 5:9-10; 1 Peter 2:5, 9. 

Love works no ill to self or others and it’s the fulfilment of all God’s commands: Romans 13:8, 10. 

There is no hypocrisy or dissemination in love. It sees people through in life and not through people: Romans 12:9 –11; Philippians 2:3-4. 

There’s NO fear in love: 1 John 4:17–18. 

Love is the greatest gift in ranking: 1 Corinthians 13:13. 

Love is the end of all commandments and above all things: 1 Peter 4:7–9. 

Love is the bond of perfection (maturity, completeness): Colossians 3:12–14. 

Love is the excellent way to enhance and manifest the Ministerial and Spiritual gifts; and Character (Fruit) gifts of the Holy Spirit: 1 Corinthians 12:7-11, 31 – 13:1-13; Ephesians 4:7-16; Galatians 5:13, 22-25. 

Love restores the weak ones back to Faith not an accuser: Galatians 6:1; John 8:1-11; John 4. 

Love is the most excellent way to excel and to have overflowing life: 1 Corinthians 12:31.

Know full well that living in LOVE through the Holy Spirit of LOVE – makes all the difference in doing life and living godly in the grace. 

Blessed regards in God’s BLESSEDNESS. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“For in Jesus Christ NEITHER circumcision AVAILETH any thing, NOR uncircumcision; BUT FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been CALLED unto liberty; only USE NOT LIBERTY for an occasion to the flesh, but by LOVE SERVE ONE ANOTHER” Galatians 5:6, 13. 

“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 . . . 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5, 8. 

“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 3:16. 

“He that LOVETH NOT KNOWETH NOT God; for GOD IS LOVE . . . 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. GOD IS LOVE; and he that DWELLETH in love DWELLETH in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: 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 4:8, 16-18.

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE – THE VICTORY AND TRIUMPH STAND

By Leave a Comment

OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE – THE VICTORY AND TRIUMPH STAND: ONLY MADE POSSIBLE WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS ACTIVATED TO FULFIL PURPOSE! 

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER for GOOD to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to His PURPOSE. 29 For whom He did FOREKNOW, He also did PREDESTINATE to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also CALLED: and whom He called, them He also JUSTIFIED: and whom He justified, them He also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30. 

Everyone wants the best of God in all they do and wants to do in life and godly living; but not everyone wants to be OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH STAND IN THE GRACE as expected of all who WANTS the best out of God and to be FULFILLED in all about life and living godly. This I have known and have come to realised in course of time, in dealing with many in the cause of personalised FAITH-BASED and GODLY-INSPIRED COUNSELING SURGERY sections that happens now and always, on a day by day basis. Some don’t want to share and partake in the PRINCIPLE of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY accorded to the CAUSE of them to be fulfilled purpose in God, in Christ Jesus stead, but still want to have it all which can’t happen, no matter the religion and sacrificial activities one thus engaged to make up. My dear, OBEDIENCE is the main switchboard act of faithfulness to the cause to advance God’s Kingdom and to keep the enemy at bay. 

“Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4 and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: 5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship, for OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH among all nations, for his name: 6 among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ” Romans 1:3-6. 

It was in OBEDIENCE that our Saviour and Lord keyed into, while in humanity, to become the author of eternal salvation toward all who intend in God to experience same like FULFILMENT, in FAITHFULNESS and all GOODNESS to DIVINELY driven PURPOSE as it’s written concerning our Lord Jesus Christ: 

“. . . 7 Who in THE DAYS OF HIS FLESH, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8 THOUGH HE WERE A SON, YET LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE BY THE THINGS WHICH HE SUFFERED; 9 and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10 CALLED of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec” Hebrews 5:1-10. 

“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 2:5-11. 

I learnt very early in my Christian life that REBELLION to the CAUSE of God is as equivalent to the sinful consequences apportion to one entangled with WITCHCRAFT and even STUBBORNNESS. There’s no place with God for those who thrive in disobedient to the cause of God. And all who knows the truth and manipulates it for their unrighteous causes to distort, adulterate and pervert the cause of advancing the TRUTH of the Kingdom of God from sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation and to also keep the enemy and cohorts at bay. 

“And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in OBEYING the voice of the Lord? Behold, to OBEY is better than sacrifice SACRIFICE, and to HEARKEN than the fat of rams. 23 For REBELLION is as the sin of WITCHCRAFT, and STUBBORNNESS is as INIQUITY and IDOLATRY. Because thou hast REJECTED THE WORD of the Lord, he hath also REJECTED thee from being king. 24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words: because I FEARED the people, and OBEYED their voice” 1 Samuel 15:22-24. 

“For the WRATH of God is REVEALED from heaven AGAINST all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who HOLD THE TRUTH IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS . . . 32 who KNOWING the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have PLEASURE in them that do them” Romans 1:18, 32. 

This was learnt also, when a simple OBEDIENCE expected of King Saul caused him his throne and kingship to RULE and to REIGN in the given opportunity in the grace. And some Believer’s have knowingly or unknowingly forgotten that they are MADE of God in REDEMPTION to become royal priesthood – meaning, that kingship to reign and rule in civility in the grace and priesthood was bestowed upon us in REDEMPTION in godliness in the grace. While some claim to acknowledge it, yet in OBEDIENCE to the scriptural demands to enable them TRIUMPH and be VICTORIOUS in life and godliness, are always find wanting, by their impatience as found in King Saul to act without minding that the consequences therein are sometimes fatal and irreversible.  

“And from Jesus Christ, who is the FAITHFUL witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth. Unto Him that LOVED us, and WASHED us from our sins in his own blood, 6 and hath MADE us KINGS and PRIESTS unto God and his Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” Revelation 1:5-6. 

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast made us unto our God KINGS and PRIESTS: and we shall reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10. 

“Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an HOLY PRIESTHOOD, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . .9 But ye are a chosen generation, a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 10 which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy” 1 Peter 2:5, 9-10. 

We are engaged daily in a spiritual warfare – knowingly or unknowingly, and the ENEMY and COHORTS of our FAITH in God, in Christ Jesus, is working tirelessly and timelessly to and fro, seeking who he may devour directly or indirectly in the CAUSE of our doing life and living godly. [1 Timothy 1:18; 1 Timothy 6:12; Ephesians 6:10-20; 1 Peter 5:8-11]. He knows he has a short time to parade around and needs to recruit many to be a part of his fallen state destination. And one great old tricks attribute he has and have always use and succeed, is to make people disobey the CAUSE of God in their life’s. He tried it with Adam through Eve in Eden and it works. Over the years he has fought heard to ensure many fall shorts of obeying God’s heavenly mandate upon their life’s. DON’T BE A PREY AND VICTIM FOR HIM AGAIN.  

“FOR THOUGH WE WALK IN THE FLESH, WE DO NOT WAR AFTER THE FLESH: 4 (for the WEAPONS of our WARFARE are not carnal [fleshy, man-made], but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the KNOWLEDGE of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the OBEDIENCE of Christ; 6 and having in a readiness to REVENGE all DISOBEDIENCE, when your OBEDIENCE IS FULFILLED” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6/Emphasis Mine. 

When one turns into using physical process in a set spiritual warfare, you give the ENEMY and COHORTS of your FAITH journey with God, the permission to obstruct your path of OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE. Fighting spiritual warfare in the flesh – in the sense instincts of – seeing, hearing, smelling, touching/feeling and tasting, will always allude one from the VICTORY and TRIUMPH earnestly designed of God for His people in everyway and places. [2 Corinthians 10:3-6; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 Corinthians 15:57; 1 John 5:3-5; Isaiah 54:13-17]. 

It is in OBEDIENCE that we find PLEASURE and fulfilment in life. It is there we can partake in the Kingdom goodness that we ARE made to INHERIT of God. One key principle of OBEDIENCE is the attitudes of having PATIENCE OF HOPE – [1 Thessalonians 1:3; Hebrews 6:12]. When our FAITH is in obedience motion, to God’s heavenly mandate, we need to set PATIENCE with HOPE in the CAUSE of doing life and living godly; otherwise, we will end up like King Saul, for his impatience to wait for Prophet Samuel arrival to carry on the expected according to God’s detailed instructions. When we are in HASTE to become in life, against God’s time scale as King Saul was, we are bound to undermine our DIVINELY giving instructions to go and satisfy then the FLESHLY-RULED and BODILY-RULED demand, which works against God’s given instructions. And that’s the danger of many today. Attributing GAIN as GODLINESS. What a wrong concept to MEASURE and LEGISLATE SPIRITUALITY in heavenly mandate of God by GAINS instead of being faithful to fulfil PURPOSE, in OBEYING the God GIVEN cause for our life. [Job 36:11; Isaiah 1:19; Hebrews 6:10-12; Proverbs 28:19-22; 1 Timothy 6:3-6]. 

Therefore, know today that you will and can be able to revenge – take charge on any ENEMY and COHORTS territories, WHEN ONLY YOUR OBEDIENCE IS ACTIVATED TO FULFIL PURPOSE in God’s enabling grace in the faith. For then you can take the VICTORY and TRIUMPH stand, by OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE cause before you, in life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

Blessed regards in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, as obey you Him worthily and serve Him acceptably in the grace, in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“If they OBEY and SERVE him, they shall spend their DAYS IN PROSPERITY, and their YEARS IN PLEASURES. 12 But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge” Job 36:11-12. 

“If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall eat the good of the land: 20 but if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it” Isaiah 1:19-20. 

“Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a FOUNDATION a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a SURE FOUNDATION: he that BELIEVETH SHALL NOT MAKE HASTE” Isaiah 28:26. 

“He that TILLETH his land shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN persons shall have POVERTY enough. 20 A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: but he that maketh HASTE to be RICH shall NOT BE INNOCENT. 21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for A PIECE OF BREAD that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be rich hath an EVIL EYE, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22. 

“If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to WHOLESOME WORDS, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, SUPPOSING THAT GAIN IS GODLINESS: from such withdraw thyself. 6 But GODLINESS with CONTENTMENT is GREAT GAIN” 1 Timothy 6:3-6. 

“And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as GREAT DELIGHT in burnt OFFERINGS and SACRIFICES, as in OBEYING THE VOICE OF THE LORD? Behold, to OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE, and TO HEARKEN than the fat of rams. 23 For REBELLION is AS the SIN of WITCHCRAFT, and STUBBORNNESS is as INIQUITY and IDOLATRY. Because thou hast REJECTED the word of the Lord, he hath also REJECTED thee from being king. 24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice” 1 Samuel 15:22-24. 

“Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4 and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: 5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship, for OBEDIENCE TO THE FAITH among all nations, for his name: 6 among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ” Romans 1:3-6. 

“And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were OBEDIENT TO THE FAITH” Acts 6:7.

YOU ARE – GOD’S BATTLE AXE

YOU ARE – GOD’S BATTLE AXE: THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST – AND TRIUMPHANT IN EVERYWHERE AND IN EVERYWAY! 

“Crowns and thrones may perish 

Kingdoms rise and wane 

But the Church of Jesus constant will remain: 

Gates of hell can never 

‘Gainst that Church prevails; 

We have Christ’s own promise – 

And that cannot fail” – S. Baring-Gould. 

“But THANKS be to God, who ALWAYS LEADS us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us SPREADS and MAKES evident everywhere the sweet FRAGRANCE of the KNOWLEDGE of Him” 2 Corinthians 2:14. 

Yea, Kingdoms, Nations, Empires, Politicians, Political and Military dictators, Kings and Rulers that have covenanted with satanic evil and wicked cohorts have risen and fallen – lost their greatness and collapsed, reigned and died. Yet the Church of Jesus Christ –  hallelujah – the greatest and only UNPARALLELED force known on earth, beneath the earth, and in the heavens, keeps marching on triumphantly in the face of absolute opposition and challenges. And in spite of all the attacks of the ENEMY and his COHORTS against God’s mandate – His plan, purpose and pursuit – the Church stands and advances. 

“. . . 2 The Lord shall send the ROD of Your STRENGTH out of ZION (THE CHURCH). RULE in the MIDST of your ENEMIES! 3 Your people shall be VOLUNTEERS (WILLING) in the DAY of your POWER; In the BEAUTIES of HOLINESS, from the womb of the morning, you have the DEW (UNCTION) of your youth” Psalms 110:1-3 NKJV. 

All simply because this Kingdom purpose and cause is of God, and it is an EVERLASTING KINGDOM that endures and will endure through ALL GENERATIONS – irrespective of the challenges, opposition and difficulties in the pathway. 

“Thy KINGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM, and thy DOMINION endureth throughout ALL GENERATIONS” Psalms 145:13. 

“For THE KINGDOM is the Lord’s: and he is the GOVERNOR among THE NATIONS” Psalms 22:28. 

Therefore, as God’s Battle Axe and Weapons of War, the Church of God in Christ Jesus, it is time to ARISE and BUILD with selfless hearts of FAITH, HOPE and LOVE again – in order to set things right in the human DECADENCE and PERVERSIONS that we see EVERY DAY in our denominationised Churches, Homes, Streets, Roads, Governments, Communities, and in every place of living and doing life. 

“The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the DEMONS are SUBJECT to us in Your name.” 18 He said to them, “I watched Satan FALL from heaven like [a flash of] lightning. 19 Listen carefully: I have GIVEN you AUTHORITY [that you now possess] to TREAD on serpents and scorpions, and [the ability to exercise authority] OVER ALL the POWER of the ENEMY (Satan); and NOTHING will [in any way] harm you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice at this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your NAMES are RECORDED in heaven” Luke 10:17-20 Amplified. 

For we as the Church have been given so much tremendous authority and power to bring about the atmophere we earnestly desired to colour our worlds with God’s goodness until Christ Jesus returns for the fulness of our God and well being as Apostle Paul stated in the Holy writ of Ephesians 1:17-23. 

WE ARE God’s BATTLE AXE and WEAPONS OF WAR, the Church of JESUS CHRIST with the mandate to be triumphant in EVERYWHERE and EVERYWAY. 

CHURCH ARISE – YOU ARE THE CHURCH! 

IT’S NOT THE ARCHITECTURAL BUILDING!! 

AND AS THE CHURCH – YOU ARE TRIUMPHANT!!! 

CONGRATULATIONS – BE BLESSED. 

SCRIPTURAL TRUTH WORTH PONDERING: 

“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 . . .” Jeremiah 51:20-23. 

“Thy KINGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM, and thy DOMINION endureth throughout ALL GENERATIONS” Psalms 145:13. 

“For THE KINGDOM is the Lord’s: and he is the GOVERNOR among THE NATIONS” Psalms 22:28. 

“Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS causeth us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh MANIFEST the SAVOUR of his KNOWLEDGE by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14. 

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, THAT MEN OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, AND NOT TO FAINT (Give Up, Lose Heart, Discourage) Luke 18:1. (Emphasis Mine) 

“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH; and THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT. 19 And I will give unto thee the KEYS of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt BIND (Allow, Permit) on earth shall be BOUND (Allowed, Permitted) in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt LOOSE (Allow, Permit) on earth shall be LOOSED (Allowed, Permitted) in heaven” Matthew 16:18-19 (Emphasis Mine). 

“Jesus came up and said to them, “ALL AUTHORITY (all power of absolute rule) in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations [help the people to learn of Me, believe in Me, and obey My words], baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always [remaining with you perpetually—regardless of circumstance, and on every occasion], even to the end of the age” Matthew 28:18-20 Amplified. 

“[I always pray] that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation [that gives you a deep and personal and intimate insight] into the true knowledge of Him [for we know the Father through the Son]. 18 And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints (God’s people), 19 and [so that you will begin to know] what the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength 20 which He produced in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above ALL RULE and AUTHORITY and POWER and DOMINION [whether angelic or human], and [far above] every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and world but also in the one to come. 22 And He put ALL THINGS [in every realm] in SUBJECTION under Christ’s feet, and appointed Him as [supreme and authoritative] head OVER ALL THINGS in the church, 23 which is His body, the FULLNESS of Him who fills and completes all things in all [believers]” Ephesians 1:17-23 Amplified.

BEING TRIUMPHANT OVER THE FIVE SENSES 

By Leave a Comment

BEING TRIUMPHANT OVER THE FIVE SENSES: THE EFFECT OF THE FLESH – THE LUST OF THE FLESH, THE LUST OF THE EYES AND THE PRIDE OF LIFE! 

“But thanks be to God, who ALWAYS leads us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us SPREADS and MAKES evident EVERYWHERE the SWEET FRAGRANCE of the knowledge of Him” 2 Corinthians 2 14/Amplified. 

“When He had DISARMED the rulers and authorities [those supernatural forces of evil operating against us], He MADE a public example of them [exhibiting them as captives in His TRIUMPHAL procession], having TRIUMPHED over them through the cross” Colossians 2:15/Amplified.  

I want you to know for certain, and be assured to ensure, that YOU ARE A TRIUMPHANT CHURCH. I mean you ARE the Church in TRIUMPH, and not the architectural building where the ingathering to worship our God worthily and to serve Him acceptably is centred. And knowingly or unknowingly, TRIUMPH is a default DONE DEED for every believing child of God in Christ Jesus through REDEMPTION [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15]. And the Scripture wants every Believer in Christ Jesus to LIVE and WALK in the CONSCIOUSNESS of the SPIRIT of TRIUMPH, so that they can mortify [crucify] – put to death – the LUSTS and AFFECTIONS of the FLESH which are of the – FIVE SENSES [Galatians 5:16, 24-25]. 

“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. 

It thus means TRIUMPH is by living in the sphere where the Holy Spirit LEADS – the Holy Spirit Inspired life, and by the WORD of God, through your human spirit-being by the auction of grace that’s within you [Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7; 1 John 2:20, 27]. This is what makes you a spirit or spiritual being that is SPIRIT-RULED and not BODILY-RULED or FLESHLY-RULED. A sphere to make you live TRIUMPHANTLY, far above just being a human being by the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus that’s within you – [Romans 8:1-17]. For you are created as a BEING, not to BEEN. Indicating there’s no place of vacuum to God or with God in the Kingdom to exercise your place as a BEING of God. 

And FAITH in God is the mystery of COMMUNICATION with God as a BEING, in order to enhance one to exercise the sphere of a BEING [1 Timothy 3:9; Romans 12:4], and FAITH is the resultant and consequence of the HEARING, the HEARING of the WORD of God [Romans 10:17]. 

So, there’s the need to FELLOWSHIP, in order to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God [1 Corinthians 1:9], because there’s no sphere or place for a VACUUM. Thus, it indicates that one can’t commune with God outside His WORD for any reason, otherwise there will be satanic interference [Matthew 12:43-45]. And to commune with God is about LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit – which is by your spirit and in the truth – the WORD of God [John 4:19-24]. 

The consequential of living outside the sphere of the Spirit-led is LIVING and WALKING in the FLESH – that is, in the sphere of FIVE SENSES, which are these: 

  •  HEAR/Hearing 
  •  SEE/Seeing 
  •  TASTE/Tasting 
  •  SMELL/Smelling 
  •  FEEL/Feeling [Touch/Touching]  

Sadly enough – there is EFFECT, and there are EFFECTS – of living in the SPHERE of the FLESH – FIVE SENSE. These FIVE SENSES EFFECTS that resulted in the fall of the first creation man [Adam] and was defeated by the second Adam [Christ Jesus] to give us assurance of hope and triumph when we are living and walking by the WORD in the Spirit are these [Genesis 3:1-6; Luke 4:1-13; 1 John 2:15-17]: 

  •  The LUST of the EYES 
  •  The LUST of the FLESH 
  •  The PRIDE of LIFE 

These EFFECTS were seen at the beginning with Adam and Adam in EDEN, where they fell from FAITH and FELLOWSHIP with God [Genesis 3]. These EFFECTS showed up again with Jesus during His Holy Spirit-led fasting at the TEMPTATION mountain [Luke 4:1-13; Matthew 4:1-11]. Sadly today, these EFFECTS are still at work and hover about, looking for who will fall to its sword [1 John 2:15-17]. The matter therefore is this – will you let it take root in you as many have fallen victims over and over again? I hope not. 

Unlike Eve and Adam, Jesus TRIUMPHED over these five senses and their EFFECTS by the simple affirmative statement of His firm FAITH in the WORD – “IT IS WRITTEN” – Matthew 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13 [1 John 5:4-5; Colossians 2:15; Philemon 1:6]. Thus it means: No WORD, No FAITH, and No enacting of the TRIUMPH in the grace [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15]. Otherwise, it will be Magic, Sorcerer, Traditional dogmas, Man-made make-believes, creeds and such like. 

Therefore, as the TRIUMPHANT CHURCH in Christ Jesus stead, let us ARISE and be TRIUMPHANT for we ARE. And by LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit, we will not fulfil the DEEDS and desired EFFECTS of the Flesh [fleshy-ruled, bodily-ruled]. 

BE BLESSED IN the grace as you live and walk in triumph in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.  

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

BE BLESSED. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Now thanks be unto God, WHICH ALWAYS CAUSETH US TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:24. 

“But thanks be to God, who ALWAYS leads us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us SPREADS and MAKES evident EVERYWHERE the SWEET FRAGRANCE of the knowledge of Him” 2 Corinthians 2 14 (Amplified). 

“And having SPOILED principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, TRIUMPHING over them in it” Colossians 2:15. 

“When He had DISARMED the rulers and authorities [those supernatural forces of evil operating against us], He MADE a public example of them [exhibiting them as captives in His TRIUMPHAL procession], having TRIUMPHED over them through the cross” Colossians 2:15 (Amplified) 

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

“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. 

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever” 1 John 2:15-17. 

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” John 4:19-24 

Further Scriptural Reading: Genesis 3:1-7; Mathew 4:1-11; Luke 4 :1-13; James 4:1-3; Romans 10:6-10; Habakkuk 2:4; Hebrews 10: 23, 35-39; Galatians 3:11; Mark 11:20-24; Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12-13 

SUMMARY: 

The message is a doctrinal exhortation titled “BEING TRIUMPHANT OVER THE FIVE SENSES: THE EFFECT OF THE FLESH”. It establishes that Christ secured complete TRIUMPH over the flesh at the cross, and that believers enforce this victory daily by living and walking in the Spirit through faith in the Word. The message contrasts the Spirit-led life with a flesh-ruled life governed by the five senses, using Adam’s fall and Christ’s temptation to prove that the three core effects of the flesh are still active, but faith and fellowship ensure the Church remains TRIUMPHANT. 

Key Points 

  1. 1. Identity & Foundation
  • YOU ARE A TRIUMPHANT CHURCH — not a building but believing children of God in Christ Jesus. 
  • TRIUMPH IS A DONE DEED through redemption [2 Cor 2:14; Col 2:15 Amplified]. God always leads us in triumph. 
  • The Church must LIVE and WALK in the consciousness of the Spirit of triumph to mortify the lusts and affections of the flesh [Gal 5:16, 24-25]. 
  1. Man’s Design: Spirit-Ruled BEING
  • Man was created as a BEING, not a BEEN [Gen 2:7]. There is no vacuum in God’s Kingdom. 
  • A spirit-ruled life is sustained by the Holy Spirit and the Word through the human spirit [Prov 20:27; Rom 8:1-17]. 
  • FAITH = COMMUNICATION with God as a BEING. Faith comes by HEARING the Word [Rom 10:17] and is held in a pure conscience [1 Tim 3:9]. 
  • FELLOWSHIP strengthens relationship with God [1 Cor 1:9]. Communion with God is only by spirit and truth — the Word [John 4:23-24]. 
  1. The Enemy: Five Senses & Three Effects
  • Outside the Spirit-led sphere = LIVING/WALKING in the FLESH, governed by five senses: Hearing, Seeing, Tasting, Smelling, Feeling. 
  • The flesh manifests through 3 effects: The LUST of the FLESH, The LUST of the EYES, The PRIDE of LIFE [1 John 2:15-17]. 
  • These effects caused Adam’s fall in EDEN [Gen 3:1-6] and tempted Christ at the TEMPTATION MOUNTAIN [Matt 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13]. They remain active today seeking who will fall. 
  1. Pattern for Victory: Christ’s Method
  • Unlike Adam/Eve, Jesus TRIUMPHED over the five senses by FAITH in the WORD — “IT IS WRITTEN” [Matt 4:4,7,10]. 
  • Principle: No WORD = No FAITH = No enacting of TRIUMPH in grace [2 Cor 2:14; Col 2:15]. Without the Word, one resorts to magic, sorcery, dogmas, and man-made creeds. 
  1. Charge & Application
  • Command: ARISE and be TRIUMPHANT for we ARE. By LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit, we will not fulfill the deeds and desired effects of the flesh. 
  • Result: A life lived triumphantly, far above human limitations, by the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus [Rom 8:2].

SINGING THE SONGS OF TRIUMPH

SINGING THE SONGS OF TRIUMPH: IT’S YOUR SONGS OF REDEMPTION! 

“And they SUNG A NEW SONG, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast REDEEMED us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast MADE us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10 

May You Sing A New Song – In June. The Redeemed sang a new SONG – the New CREATION song. The SONG of TRIUMPH. No more SONGS of failure, sickness, disease, setbacks, frustrations, curses, defeat, oppression, unbelief and such likes. They rather SANG the SONGS of royalty and priesthood that they BECAME in Christ Jesus, affordable to all – every tribe, tongue, kindred and nations – colour and race. 

The Church is YOU, the TRIUMPHANT CHURCH, the NEW CREATION, God’s REDEEMED. By Christ Jesus’ Redemption, you live TRIUMPHANTLY – in every way and every place. No more LIMITS. You are DELIVERED and RESCUED from the POWER of DARKNESS and has been TRANSFERRED and TRANSLATED not REFURBISHED, into God’s OWN. YOU ARE GOD’S OWN. SING A NEW SONG. 

Moses and Miriam led the song of the glorious TRIUMPH out of Egypt’s bondage. They sang their Redemption songs with graciousness and gracefulness. They danced and celebrated their redemption. Why not YOU (today), born of God, filled with the Holy Spirit – which they (like Moses/Miriam) wished for earnestly – Hebrews 11:32-40. I guess they’d have danced daily and more. 

What sorts of SONGS are you into as a REDEEMED child of God. Is it the FEARFUL-HALLELUJAH songs, the COMPLAIN-HALLELUJAH songs, the TRANSFER-AGGRESSION songs, the UNFORGIVING and UNFORGETTABLE Songs, the REGRETTABLE songs, the SELF-AFFLICTED Songs, the FEAR-PHOBIAS songs, the songs filled up with CURSES, the BLAME-OTHERS songs, the VICTIM songs, the DEPRESSING songs, the NEVER-DO-WELL songs, the SELF-DEFEAT songs, the SELF-PITY songs, the RACE-CARD songs and other such likes songs.  

God wants YOU, the REDEEMED you, to know that it’s time to sing the REDEMPTION Songs of TRIUMPH in all your declarations, proclamations, announcements, confessions, professions and such likes. Songs from your lips now need to be that of the glorious TRIUMPH from the GRIPS and POWER of darkness into the realm of our dear Saviour and Lord, Christ Jesus. It’s time to ENACT and AUTHENTICATE your REDEMPTION DEED in Life and Godly Living. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

“Who hath DELIVERED us from the POWER of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his blood, even the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:13-14. 

“For He has RESCUED us and has DRAWN us to Himself from the DOMINION of darkness, and has TRANSFERRED us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the FORGIVENESS of our sins [and the CANCELLATION of sins’ penalty]” Colossians 1:13-14/Amplified.

“And they SANG a NEW SONG [of GLORIOUS REDEMPTION], saying, “Worthy and deserving are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were slain (sacrificed), and with Your blood You PURCHASED people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation. 10 “You have MADE them to be a kingdom [of royal subjects] and priests to our God; and they will reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10/Amplified. 

“Then SANG MOSES AND THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL THIS SONG UNTO THE LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. 

2 The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him. 

3 The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name. 

  1. 4. Pharaoh’schariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains alsoare drowned in the Red  
  2. 5. Thedepths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.

6 Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy. 

7 And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble. 

8 And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together; the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea. 

9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. 

10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters. 

11 Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? 

12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, 

the earth swallowed them. 

13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation. 

14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina. 

15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away. 

16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O Lord, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased. 

17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established. 

18 The Lord shall reign for ever and ever. 

19 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea. 

20 And MIRIAM THE PROPHETESS, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; AND ALL THE WOMEN WENT OUT AFTER HER WITH TIMBRELS AND WITH DANCES. 21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea” Exodus 15:1-20. 

SUMMARY:

TRIUMPHING OVER THE EFFECT OF LIVING IN THE FLESH [THE FIVE SENSES] 

By Leave a Comment

TRIUMPHING OVER THE EFFECT OF LIVING IN THE FLESH [THE FIVE SENSES]: THE LUST OF THE FLESH – THE LUST OF THE EYES – AND THE PRIDE OF LIFE! 

“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 LUSTS” James 4:1-3. 

Knowingly or unknowingly, TRIUMPH and TRIUMPHING is a default DONE DEED for every believing child of God in Christ Jesus’ stead. However, its operation in the Believer’s life depends on the individual to make it happen within the pure context of the given redemption rights and privileges, and not elsewhere.  

“Now thanks be unto God, WHICH ALWAYS CAUSETH US TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:24. 

And Scripture wants every Believer in Christ Jesus to LIVE and WALK in the SPIRIT of TRIUMPH, so that they can mortify [crucify] – that’s to put to death – the lusts and affections of the FLESH – the FIVE SENSES [SEE, HEAR, TASTE, SMELL, TOUCH/FEEL]. Otherwise, there will be wars and infighting within oneself due to wanting desires born through cravings of a lustful spirit not ruled, governed, controlled, and led by the TRIUMPH Spirit of dominion. 

“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. 

“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 LUSTS” James 4:1-3. 

The scriptural context indicates we need to live within the sphere of the Holy Spirit’s leads and guides, and by the context of God’s WORD, through our human spirit [Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7]. This makes one a spirit or spiritual being – a sphere to live TRIUMPHANTLY, far above just being human, but as a supernatural being. The human spirit empowered by the indwelling Holy Spirit indicates the Super Spirit of God meets the natural [human] spirit – making the SUPERNATURAL. 

You are created as a BEING. There’s no vacuum to reach out to God, be in God, or be with God in the Kingdom cause to exercise your place as a BEING of God. God operates through His WORD, and not in a vacuum.  You can’t do astral travel or astral projection with God as some may – doing so, you only contact demons, not the God of REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. FAITH in God is the mystery of COMMUNICATION to God through His WORD as a BEING – that’s the only possible channel to exercise the sphere of a BEING. FAITH is the results from HEARING the WORD of God. Through FAITH communication, we ensure the assured redemption deed of Christ Jesus in us. 

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

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

“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. 

So, there’s a need to FELLOWSHIP with God to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God, because in God, there’s no place for a VACUUM. This indicates that you can’t commune with God outside His WORD; otherwise, satanic interference occurs – demons occupy vacuum hearts not filled with God’s word [Matthew 12:43-45].  Communing with God is about LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit – which is your human spirit – and in the truth – [the Word of God] 

“When the UNCLEAN SPIRIT is gone out of a man, he WALKETH through DRY PLACES, SEEKING REST, and findeth none. 44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it EMPTY, SWEPT, and GARNISHED. 45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more WICKED than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the LAST state of that man is WORSE than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation” Matthew 12:43-45. 

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the placOUmen ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” John 4:19-24. 

The consequential problems of living outside the sphere of the Spirit’s leads and guides, is living and walking in the FLESH – in the sphere of FIVE SENSES which are these: 

  • HEAR/HEARING 
  • SEE/SEEING 
  • TASTE/TASTING 
  • SMELL/SMELLING 
  • FEEL/TOUCH [FEELING/TOUCHING] 

Sadly, there are EFFECTS of living in the sphere of the FLESH – FIVE SENSE. These EFFECTS are as written and experienced in the Scriptures which are of these [Genesis 3:1-6; Luke 4:1-13; 1 John 2:15-17]: 

  • The LUST of the EYES 
  • The LUST of the FLESH 
  • The PRIDE of LIFE 

These EFFECTS showed up with Mrs. Eve and Mr. Adam at EDEN, where they fell out in Faith [God’s WORD] with God. [Genesis 3:1-7]. 

These EFFECTS showed up again before Jesus during His Holy Spirit -led fasting and praying at the TEMPTATION mountain. Satan was DEFEATED with his flesh [fleshy] Introductory scheme by the WORD of God that Christ Jesus utilised by Holy Spirit’s lead. [Luke 4:1-13]. 

Sadly, these EFFECTS are still at work, with satan and cohorts looking for who will fall to its sword [1 Peter 5:8-9]. Will you let it take root in you like many have? I hope not. 

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever” 1 John 2:15-17. 

“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, stablish, strengthen, settle you” 1 Peter 5:8-10. 

Unlike Eve and Adam, Jesus TRIUMPHED over these five senses EFFECTS by the simple statement – “IT IS WRITTEN”. Meaning, The WORD TRIUMPHs, and NO WORD means NO TRIUMPH but DEFEAT, FAILURES, and REGRETS; and anything outside the WORD is Magic, Sorcery, Traditional belief, dogmas, falsehoods, adulteration, Man-made make-belief’s, denominational indoctrination, by-law and creeds, and such like. 

Therefore, lets TRIUMPH, by LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit through the WORD of God, that we might not fulfill the DESIRES, DEEDS, and EFFECTS of the FLESH through lust. 

BE BLESSED. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Now thanks be unto God, WHICH ALWAYS CAUSETH US TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:24.

If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever” 1 John 2:15-17. 

“. . . 6 And when the woman SAW that the tree was GOOD for FOOD, and that it was PLEASANT to the EYES, and a tree to be DESIRED to make one WISE, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat . . .” Genesis 3:1-7. 

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” John 4:19-24. 

Further Scriptural Reading: Genesis 3:1-7; Mathew 4:1-11; Luke 4 :1-13; Romans 10:6-10; Habakkuk 2:4; Hebrews 10: 23, 35-39; Galatians 3:11; Mark 11:20-24; Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12-13. 

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises living a triumphant life in Christ Jesus by walking in the Spirit and not fulfilling the desires of the flesh. It highlights the importance of fellowship with God through His Word, and how Satan seeks to exploit vacuum hearts not filled with God’s Word. The five senses (SEE, HEAR, TASTE, SMELL, TOUCH/FEEL) can lead to lust, wars, and infighting within oneself if not governed by the Spirit. 

Key points include: 

  • Jesus triumphed over temptation using “IT IS WRITTEN” (Luke 4:1-13) 
  • Believers are created as BEINGS, not to be in a vacuum, but to operate in God’s Word  
  • FAITH comes from hearing God’s Word (Romans 10:17) 
  • Worship God in spirit and truth (John 4:19-24) 
  • Resist Satan’s schemes by walking in the Spirit (1 Peter 5:8-10) 
  • The effects of living in the flesh include lust, pride, and wars (1 John 2:15-17, James 4:1-3) 

The message encourages believers to live triumphantly by: 

  • Walking in the Spirit 
  • Crucifying the flesh with its affections and lusts (Galatians 5:16, 24-25) 
  • Fellowshipping with God through His Word 
  • Resisting Satan’s attacks
  • Trusting in God’s Word for triumph and victory.

MONTH FEBRUARY – TRIUMPHING BY LOVE: THE LOVE THAT GIVES AND SERVES!

MONTH FEBRUARY – TRIUMPHING BY LOVE: THE LOVE THAT GIVES AND SERVES! 

“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 3:16-18. 

Our God is LOVE. He’s LOVE in definition, which indicates, you can’t talk of LOVE outside the person who is LOVE personified and had lavishly showed His love to us by the Holy Spirit that He had given to us by virtue of our redemption in Christ Jesus. Amen. [1 John 4:8,16; Romans 5:5, 8; John 14:16-17; John 3:16]. 

When I heard decades ago, the Gospel of Christ that brought about my salvation in God, in Christ Jesus, in redemption, the first thing that crossed my mind then and now, by the Gospel I heard was this – that God LOVES me. That sticks and have never gone off me for any reason or matters irrespective of the ups and downs in the onward and upward trajectory of the Christian walk of faith in Christ Jesus. 

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; BUT FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, BUT BY LOVE SERVE ONE ANOTHER” Galatians 5:6, 13. 

And more so, to know that God in His terms to ensure and authenticate the love, He GAVE up Christ Jesus for my salvation in redemption, that I might be able to be JUSTIFIED and QUALIFIED, to receive the needed FREEDOM – LIBERTY, from the grips and bandages of SIN and its effects which are: POVERTY, SICKNESS and SPIRITUAL DEATH; the freedom – liberty, from which I was denied because of the subjugates rule of the devil and cohorts, that makes me then, to be without God in this world. [Ephesians 2:1-22]. 

Reflecting now and then that the simple Gospel I heard to get saved by God in Christ Jesus, thus indicates that God LOVES me and GAVE up Jesus Christ for my salvation in redemption; and this knowing and understanding, have left a lasting effects on my life for over 50yrs plus by God’s enabling grace. Then and now and always, I know that genuinely pure love of God means a GIVING love, and not a love that goes demanding for the love in order to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. And it thus means that one can’t live the genuinely pure love life in grace and godliness, beyond the knowledge and understanding you know and have received of God in Christ Jesus on His personified nature of LOVE as He is LOVE. 

“And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles EXERCISE LORDSHIP OVER THEM, and those who EXERCISE AUTHORITY OVER THEM are called ‘BENEFACTORS.’ 26 But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is GREATEST among you, let him be as the YOUNGER, and he who GOVERNS as he who SERVES. 27 For who is GREATER, he who sits at the TABLE, or he who SERVES? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am AMONG YOU as the One who SERVES” Luke 22:25-27/NKJV [Matthew 20:25-28; Mark 10:35-45]. 

And when I began to embark on the journey to grow in grace and in the knowledge of God through Christ Jesus (2 Peter 3:18), and for me to personally personify the knowing of Him as my Saviour and Lord – Jesus Christ, and to make Him known by same mutual knowledge and understanding, I then discovered that His entire coming to take the humanity nature [Hebrews 2:14-15; 1 Timothy 3:16; John 1:14], to work out my salvation in my redemption and yours and for all mankind, was simply through this – to SERVE – through the passionate acts of LOVE which He lives and demonstrated for us all to follow after Him. [John 13:1-17, 34-35; Luke 22:25-27 (Matthew 20:25-28; Mark 10:35-45); John 15:9-16]. And to do this act of our redemption, the scripture says; He LOVED us. Meaning, He didn’t serve outside love to REDEEM us, He LOVED us as written: 

“John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; 5 and from Jesus Christ, who is the FAITHFUL witness, and THE FIRST BEGOTTEN of the dead, and THE PRINCE OF THE KINGS of the earth. Unto him that LOVED us, and WASHED us from our sins in his own blood, 6 and hath MADE us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” Revelation 1:4-6. 

And for our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ to ensure and authenticate that the GOSPEL being PREACHED remains same as He live in it and through it, He charged that the Believer’s in Him, should continue first and foremostly, to walk in His love with same Gospel love that loves through GIVING and SERVING others in His name – for by such many will turn toward the Father God in His name. [Ephesians 5:1-2; John 13:34-35; John 15:8-16; John 8:30-32]. 

Apostle Paul, with the gracious insights and foresights into the revelation of the Gospel of God in Christ Jesus, do charged the Ephesians Church in the Holy writ of [Acts 20:35], of the need to know that – it’s more of BLESSEDNESS to GIVE (be a GIVER) than to RECEIVE (be a RECEIVER); and Apostle Paul also wrote to the Galatians Church in the Holy writ in the context of – [Galatians 5:1, 6, 13], of the necessity to see that they don’t take their freedom – liberty in God in Christ Jesus for granted, but to ensure it and be assured that their faith in God in Christ Jesus is lubricated through LOVE and not by legalities of the religious dogmas and tradition and denominational indoctrination as per circumcision or no circumcision – and more importantly, to SERVE one another BY LOVE as in the Gospel that they have received of him in Christ Jesus stead. 

In redemption, we’ve obtained a glorious triumph on the cross by our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. For our Redemption is a done did as expressed in the Holy writs of [2 Corinthians 2:14 and Colossians 2:8-15]; this thus indicates an act of TRIUMPHING BY LOVE as expressed in GIVING His life for our justification, and in SERVING to ensure and assure that we can live TRIUMPHANTLY as we do live in humanity and live godly for the cause of advancing God’s kingdom and in keeping the enemy and cohorts at bay. 

I therefore challenge you and I today to be genuine follower of God in Christ Jesus, and WALK IN LOVE as He did for our example, through the act of GIVING and SERVING, and not of demanding and receiving or as an entitlement, if we must meaningfully fulfil purpose as enjoined in the Holy writ. [Ephesians 5:1-2; Romans 8:28-30; Ephesians 1:11-12]. 

I do pray that you might be awaken in this writ for a gracious and graceful you in Christ Jesus stead. Hence, I sincerely welcome you to Month February, the month of TRIUMPHING BY LOVE that GIVES and SERVES without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation. [Romans 12:9-21; Proverbs 25:21-22; Matthew 5:38-48; Proverbs 16:7/Hebrews 11:6]. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!  

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“When He had disarmed the rulers and authorities [those supernatural forces of evil operating against us], He made a public example of them [exhibiting them as captives in His TRIUMPHAL PROCESSION], having TRIUMPHED over them through the cross” Colossians 2:15. 

“But THANKS be to God, who always LEADS us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us SPREADS and makes evident everywhere the SWEET FRAGRANCE of the KNOWLEDGE of Him” 2 Corinthians 2:14/Amplified. 

“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED IN LOVE, 18 may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the BREADTH, and LENGTH, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 and TO KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, WHICH PASSETH KNOWLEDGE, that ye might be FILLED with all the FULNESS of God” Ephesians 3:17-19. 

“For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; BUT FAITH WHICH WORKETH BY LOVE . . . 13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, BUT BY LOVE SERVE ONE ANOTHER” Galatians 5:6, 13. 

“Be on guard; stand firm in your faith [in God, respecting His precepts and keeping your doctrine sound]. Act like [mature] men and be courageous; be strong. 14 LET EVERYTHING YOU DO BE DONE IN LOVE [motivated and inspired by God’s love for us]” 1 Corinthians 16:13-14/Amp. 

“Be ye therefore FOLLOWERS of God, as dear children; 2 and WALK IN LOVE, as Christ also hath LOVED us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour” Ephesians 5:1-2. 

“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. 

“And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles EXERCISE LORDSHIP OVER THEM; and they that EXERCISE AUTHORITY upon them are called BENEFACTORS. 26 But ye shall NOT BE SO: but he that is GREATEST among you, let him be as the YOUNGER; and he that is CHIEF, as he that doth SERVE. 27. For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that SERVETH? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that SERVETH” Luke 22:25-27 [Matthew 20:25-28; Mark 10:35-45].

WELCOME TO MONTH FEBRUARY: THE MONTH OF – “TRIUMPHING BY LOVE” – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD

WELCOME TO MONTH FEBRUARY: THE MONTH OF – “TRIUMPHING BY LOVE” – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD! 

“Be on guard; stand firm in your faith [in God, respecting His precepts and keeping your doctrine sound]. Act like [mature] men and be courageous; be strong. 14 LET EVERYTHING YOU DO BE DONE IN LOVE [motivated and inspired by God’s LOVE for us]” 1 Corinthians 16:13-14/Amplified 

It’s time to TRIUMPH by the LOVE that GIVES and SERVES, rather than by the LOVE that DEMANDS and RECEIVES and equally lives on ENTITLEMENT as a right on others. You need to know that it’s written in the Holy writ, that it’s more BLESSED for you and I to GIVE than to RECEIVE. Knowing full well that our Father God so LOVES us, that He GAVE, as a living demonstration that indicates the awesomeness, graciousness and gracefulness of genuine love. For a genuine LOVE is a GIVING love and a SERVING love unlike the selfish and self-centred love that’s of a demanding, receiving and entitling love – the love that limits one’s potential to do life and live godly in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. [Acts 20:35; John 3:16; Galatians 5:13]. 

My task this month is to challenge us in our intent by asking this question: 

  • How will you demonstrate and manifest the God kind of LOVE this Month FEBRUARY 2026 and onwards? 
  • Will you manifest, demonstrate, and ensure the LOVE that makes you a GIVER and SERVER of love humility, or will you be one whose love is expressed as a DEMANDER and RECEIVER with an ENTITLEMENT mentality? 

The choices of the onward and upward trajectory to thrive in TRIUMPH and in daily TRIUMPHANT living, is yours to make and determine if you will operate by the love of God that goes beyond PREJUDICE, SENTIMENTS and DISSIMULATION as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. 

I strongly beckon on you to be awakened to THE LOVE of God that’s beyond human sensual reasoning – meaning, that SURPASSES and TRANSCENDS the flesh and senses of what you – see, smell, taste, feel or touch, and hear as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead [Ephesians 3:17-19]. It’s high time you WALKED IN THE LOVE that GIVES and SERVES rather than the love that belittles you knowingly and unknowingly by the act of demanding and receiving kinds of love mentality. 

We mustn’t forget that Jesus Christ, our saviour and Lord in humanity, left us lots of living examples to follow in His stead, to enable us live TRIUMPHANTLY as He did. Firstly, He loves His workers to the end – the Disciples (witness /witnesses) that turned Apostles (messenger/representatives) in the cause of time [John 13:1-2; 30-31]; He instructed us to love our enemies and pray for them in love irrespective- [Matthew 5:38-48]; He instructed us to live and walk in Love, that others may see us as His followers and living epistles of the Word, and thus seek after our God in Him – [John 13:1-2, 34-35; John 15:8-14]. What a profound legacy for us in humanity. That makes us inexcusable in every measure. 

It’s a high time that you begin a new journey of an onward and upward trajectory, to enable you to experience and walk in the LOVE of God, which is the hallmark and the more excellent way to do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead triumphantly – and that’s by the – GIVING LOVE and SERVING LOVE – in Christ Jesus. Amen [Ephesians 5:1-2; 1 Corinthians 12:31]. 

Genuine love is about GIVING and SERVING others irrespectively. And it’s time to think and act differently in matters of God’s kind of love, which always is about the terms of – SERVICE or SERVING and GIVING. Thus, it indicates that whenever the word – LOVE – runs through your inner subconscious being, think and act – GIVING and SERVING and not DEMANDING and TAKING (RECEIVING) and ENTITLEMENT.  

The genuine TRIUMPHANT LOVE of God – DOESN’T DEMAND for LOVE; it instead, GIVES LOVE, SERVES LOVE – and by LOVE and in LOVE, it LOVES others irrespective. TRIUMPHANT LOVE is a LOVE GIVING and LOVE SERVING love by the act of LOVE in everything about all its operations in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [1 Corinthians 16:13-14; John 3:16; Ephesians 5:1-2]. And TRIUMPHING BY LOVE, is the MOST and MORE EXCELLENT WAY to live and do life with God together and with others in humanity, and under God’s kingdom causes, to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay. [1 Corinthians 12:31 – 1 Corinthians 13:1-13]. 

I pray that you come to know of a fact that it’s also possible you can be GIVING, SERVING and RENDERING services to others – [meaning it’s possible to give, serve and render services] WITHOUT LOVE, but you CAN’T be a carrier, representative and vessel of God’s genuine kingdom minded person that’s TRIUMPHING BY LOVE without being captivated with the GIVING, SERVING and RENDERING of the services in grace – [meaning you can’t love without being a giver, server, and renderer of services]. For the Love of God is more than just to give (giving) and to take (taking) as some may think in their concept of give and take world; but it’s purely in the GIVING as in [John 3:16; Acts 20:35]; and also in the SERVING as in [Galatians 5:13], as it’s written, it’s more BLESSED to GIVE in love than to RECEIVE; and to SERVE one another by love, in the grace, irrespective. [Acts 20:35; Galatians 5:6, 13]. 

Know also that, the scenario and idea of rendering CHARITY on CHARITABLE CAUSES can’t be attributed genuinely as God’s love or people’s loving others, simply because SERVICES attributed to love are rendered. People will do anything to fill up the statuesque of love, for their own selfish reasons – and sometimes it could be to probably avoid paying their shared taxes to the state in the name of doing charitable cause, thereby evade their responsibility and accountability, or for some, is to gain applaud and hypes opportunities for popularity from the vulnerable for political or position purposes, or for some to win and blindfolds someone else’s hearts for selfish gratifications in exchange, or for some to give them the enabling to control, manipulate, oppress and gain upper hands popularity over others, or for some and many such like – it’s the reason which is best known to the cause of such act to express their hypothetical, prejudice and sentimental and hypocritical act of giving and serving to indicate a dislike to others in their faces. 

However, when services [serving and giving] is genuine, and TRIUMPHING BY LOVE engineered, you see flawless and the gracious characteristics and concept wherein prejudice, sentiment and dissimulation are kept at bay intentionally and pragmatically for the good of all [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:8-15]. 

Make it your signature today that the hallmark and the more excellent way of ensuring in you TRIUMPHING BY LOVE is known through – GIVING and SERVING – the rendering SERVICE to others, in the love of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And to know that – God is love. And He wants us to live out His nature in full as Jesus Christ did in humanity. And that’s possible when we allow the Holy Spirit, the promised gift He gave us, to empower us to take charge and control of our realisation, bringing triumph to fruition through love, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Romans 5:5; John 14:16-17; 1 John 4:4, 6, 8, 16, 18]. 

It’s my earnest PRAYERS that you will manifest and genuinely live TRIUMPHANTLY, thereby TRIUMPHING BY LOVE in everything, and everywhere, and every way, by God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

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. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING – MEDITATING – IN CONTEXT: 

“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.

GOD CROWN’S THE YEAR WITH HIS GOODNESS AND ABUNDANCE

GOD CROWN’S THE YEAR WITH HIS GOODNESS AND ABUNDANCE: FOR YOUR WELL-BEING AS BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS]! 

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to RECEIVE glory and honour and power: for thou hast CREATED all things, and for thy PLEASURE they ARE and WERE CREATED” Revelation 4:11. 

“Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. 12 I have MADE the earth, and CREATED man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded” Isaiah 45:11-12. 

I herein present to you the God of the realms of timeless timeline who created the timed earth of the dawn year. He’s the uncreated creator, who made all things beautiful in His time and had put ETERNITY into the human heart [spirit] to make the human differ from every created things. He created the earth for mankind and not mankind for the earth, hence mankind can rule and reign over all things created to oversee under God in Christ Jesus. 

“He has MADE everything BEAUTIFUL and APPROPRIATE in its TIME. He has also planted ETERNITY [a SENSE of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can SATISFY, except God]—yet man CANNOT find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11/Amplified. 

Our uncreated creator God, did commissioned man from the beginning to oversee the affairs of the earth as his ambassador and representative [Genesis 1:26-28; 2 Corinthians 5:20]; however, God still remains the Lord God of the earth and all that dwells in the world though man is there to represent Him [Psalms 8:4-6; Psalms 24:1]. 

“What is MAN, that thou art MINDFUL of him? and the son of man, that thou VISITEST him? 5 For thou hast MADE him a little lower than the angels, and hast CROWNED him with glory and honour. 6 Thou MADEST him to have DOMINION over the works of thy hands; thou hast put ALL THINGS under his FEET: 7 all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; 8 the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and WHATSOEVER passeth through the paths of the seas” Psalms 8:4-8. 

“The EARTH is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the WORLD, and they that DWELL therein” Psalms 24:1. 

Reading from the various Scriptures above, although not limited, I can emphatically inform you that God wants the best for you today and tomorrow and through the year, so long it has to be under the context and concept of His WORD otherwise it’s adulteration, falsehoods and perversions. 

I can also say that the God that I do know in Christ Jesus stead, and have come to SERVE unreservedly and acceptably, and to WORSHIP worthily, faithfully, graciously and gracefully – loves you as in all mankind. He cares so much about your worthwhile for which Christ Jesus paid for in our redemption to make it possible. And by the indwelling Spirit within my spirit, through God’s WORD – I know our God is the TRUTH, the LIFE and the WAY. 

More so, God is interested in all matters that concerns our doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus as His representative on the earth. Hence, He crowns our time [second, minute, day, week, month and year] with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE to ensure that we thrive and be assured that He’s faithful, true and sure to His promises and commission. [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15; Psalms 65:11-13; Psalms 118:24; John 4:20-24; John 14:15-17; Romans 8:9, 14; 1 John 4:4-6]. 

As for BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS] in every place in Christ Jesus, our uncreated creator God, who rules and reigns over all of the heavens and the earth, and have made the heavens His dwellings and the earth His footstool; He has made it possible for all mankind as you and me, to dwell on the earth on His behalf as representatives to live through year to year triumphantly in the glorious redemption [Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 8:4-8; Colossians 2:15, 2 Corinthians 2:14; Exodus 15:1-21]. It thus means, that the earth is made for man and not man for the earth as the infallible Holy writ enjoined in the Scriptures [Psalms 24:1; Isaiah 45:11-12; Psalms 115:16-18]. 

God that crowns the scriptural prophetic assured year [2 Peter 1:19-21; Psalms 118:24] with His goodness and abundance, in that He desires us to prosper, be in health as our souls prospers [3 John 1:2] – for He’s the focus of this my Apostolic themed vision CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS]. For our God, He is not mysterious, though a mystery to many who only see Him just for an earthly possession and miracles only, and don’t see Him in essence as the GOD of our redemption – who is to be SERVED acceptably and unreservedly, and to be WORSHIPPED wholly, worthily and intentionally; for some, He’s not more than anything just beyond the ACTS and MIRACLE enclaves for their needs and substances and vulnerability [Psalms 103:7]. These categories are people whose objectives differ not from the children of Israel who crave after God or sees Him, solely for the ACTS [miracles and daily Bread and manna] that He can provide, while unlike their leader Moses, he crave after God to KNOW Him and His WAY – the PATH to doing life and living godly as the scriptures indicates here though not limited. [Psalms 103:7; Psalms 16:11; Proverbs 4:18-23; Psalms 36:9]. I behold you to know that there’s the need to know God for who He is to you rather than what you can just gain and benefit of Him.  

“He made KNOWN His WAYS unto Moses, His ACTS [MIRACLES, SIGNS] unto the children of Israel” Psalms 103:7. 

Herein are just three notable descriptions and possessions of the many of His multi-sided and multifaceted characteristics and NATURE and PERSON of the GOD I want you to know in order to access His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE in this YEAR that He has made for us to thrive and be His representatives [ambassadors]: 

  1. OMNISCIENCE – This in essence, thus indicates that our GOD – He is an all-knowing God. Meaning, God is all-knowing in the sense that he is aware of the past, present, and future. Nothing takes him by surprise. His knowledge is total. He knows all that there is to know and all that can be known. That He doesn’t act when you intend Him to act or to behave doesn’t mean He’s unaware of many things happening on the earth in human worlds of doing life and living godly. The universality of God’s knowledge are unequivocal and undisputable in all respects. [Psalms 147:5; John 21:17; Hebrews 4:12-13; 1John 3:20]. God knows detailed happenings on earth, not only in the present, but even in the future – [1 Samuel 10:2; 1 Kings 13:1-4; 2 Kings 8:12; Psalms 139:4; Acts 2:23; Acts 4:27-28]. 
  2. OMNIPOTENT – This in essence, thus indicates that our GOD – He is an ALL-POWERFUL God. This means God can do what he wants. It means He is not subject to physical limitations like man is. He’s God, as having supreme and ultimate power in the heavens and earth – [Hebrews 11:3]. And being OMNIPOTENT, God has power over wind, water, gravity, physics and such like. God’s power is infinite, or limitless beyond every human imagination and comprehension. [Psalms 115:3; Isaiah 55:11; Jeremiah 22:7; Genesis 18:14]. His authority rules and reigns supreme, and His sovereignty oversees all creation and beyond in the heaven and the earth. 
  3. OMNIPRESENT – This in essence, thus indicates that our GOD – He is an All-PRESENT God. meaning, He is Everywhere at the same time – This describes Him as JEHOVAH SHAMMAH – [Ezekiel 48:35]. This is His ability to be present everywhere at the same time, an unbounded or universal presence. Omnipresence means minimally that there is no place to which God’s knowledge and power do not extend. Hence it could be said of Him Emmanuel – The God with us – [Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Matthew 28:20]. This term means that God is capable of being everywhere at the same time. It means His divine presence encompasses the whole universe. There is no location where He does not inhabit. This should not be confused with pantheism, which suggests that God is synonymous with the universe itself; instead, omnipresence indicates that God is distinct from the universe, but inhabits the entirety of it. He is everywhere at once. [Psalms 139:1-18. Acts 17:24-31].  

Therefore, in pursuance of the plan, purpose and pursuit for the year apostolic mandate given to me, which I am glad to share with you again as it’s themed – “BEING CHRISTLIKE [CHRISTLIKENESS]” IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS; it is  my call to the urgency to help us not to limit God by any measure as the children of Israel did limit God in their redemption context and concept and suffered the consequences without measure for their UNBELIEF in limiting the Holy One of Israel. [Psalms 781-72; Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-11]; I want you to know full well of the TRUTH, that God intent for you is to CROWN the YEAR with His GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. For it is – the DAY that turns into WEEK and the WEEK that turns into the MONTH and the month that turns into the YEAR – of which God has MADE for you to rejoice and be glad in it; because a thousand years in men’s eyes is a day before God, just as a day before men is as a thousand years to Him – for He dwells in immortality counting in eternity timeless timeline, while men dwells in mortality counting on timed timeline. 

“But, BELOVED, be not IGNORANT of this one thing, that ONE DAY is with the Lord as a THOUSAND years, and a THOUSAND years as ONE DAY” 2 Peter 3:8. 

“For a THOUSAND years in thy sight are but as YESTERDAY when it is past, and as a watch in the night” Psalms 90:4. 

And by FAITH in His eternal WORD, we can synchronise God’s immortality timeline counting with mortality timeline through FAITH in the now [Hebrews 11:1-3]. Hence, UNBELIEF must NEVER have a place with anyone who is in Christ Jesus stead, otherwise we attract what God has not design or fathom for us in Him. For by Faith we have our being, we live and we go about our day to day by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Acts 17:28; Habakkuk 2:4 (Hebrews 11:6; Galatians 3:12; Hebrews 10:38; Romans 1:16-17); Romans 10:8-13, 17; 1 John 5:3-5].  

And it’s imperative that you know and understand, that God MADE the YEAR for a CROWNING – [ROYALTY, HONOUR, NOBILITY AND DIGNITY] – in His grace for you; and it’s up to you to believe God for who He is, while your part then is to walk with your head up, shoulders high and on the high heels of faith in Christ Jesus stead – as by His grace and BLESSEDNESS in His REDEMPTION plan and purpose for you. He made everything, including you and all that exist – GOOD and BEAUTIFUL [Ecclesiastes 3:11; Revelation 4:11; Psalms 8:4-8; Isaiah 45:11-12]. And He’s ever ready and faithful to keep His good CREATION in that measure in His promise – Hebrews 10:23, 1 Corinthians 1:9; 1 Thessalonians 5:24. 

God is set in His ASSURING and ENSURING, that everything about YEAR 2026 concerning you, in every of that – mountain and hills are MADE low, Valleys are MADE filled and exalted, Crooked roads of life are MADE straight and while the Rough, rugged and tough places are MADE smooth and gracious – as written in Isaiah 40:3-5. 

Therefore, I say that in BEING TRIUMPHANT IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS, that you will not limit yourself in God in Christ Jesus by the same UNBELIEF that the children of Israel did and suffered. I PRAY that you characterise yourself by the – WORK BY FAITH, PATIENCE OF HOPE AND LABOUR OF LOVE – as you do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus [1 Thessalonians 1:3]. And take in the necessary and needed enabling of God, to go forth and BECOME what you want to be by the WORD in His grace, wisdom and speed in order to PARTAKE in the INHERITANCE for all SANCTIFIED in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:3-4; Acts 20:32; Hebrews 6:10-12]. 

HAVE AN AMAZING YEAR THAT’S CROWNED WITH GOD’S BLESSEDNESS. 

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.

“And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose dead bodies were scattered in the desert? 18 And to whom did He swear [an oath] that they would not enter His rest, but to those who disobeyed [those who would not listen to His word]? 19 So we see that they were not able to enter [into His rest—the PROMISED land] because of UNBELIEF and an UNWILLINGNESS to trust in God.” Hebrews 3:17-19 (7-19). Amplified.

The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea!”” Exodus 15:1-2, 20-21. 

“Beware lest any man SPOIL you through PHILOSOPHY and VAIN deceit, after the TRADITION of men, after the RUDIMENTS of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are COMPLETE in him, which is the head of all PRINCIPALITY and POWER: 11 in whom also ye are CIRCUMCISED with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the CIRCUMCISION of Christ: 12 BURIED with him in baptism, wherein also ye ARE risen with him through the faith of the OPERATION of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being DEAD in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he QUICKENED together with him, having FORGIVEN you all trespasses; 14 BLOTTING OUT THE HANDWRITING OF ORDINANCES that was AGAINST us, which was CONTRARY to us, and took it out of the way, NAILING it to his cross; 15 and HAVING SPOILED PRINCIPALITIES AND POWERS, HE MADE A SHEW OF THEM OPENLY, TRIUMPHING OVER THEM IN IT” Colossians 2:8-15.

“So we have the PROPHETIC WORD made MORE CERTAIN [ASSURED]. You do well to pay [close] attention to it as to a LAMP SHINING in a DARK PLACE, until the DAY DAWNS and light breaks through the GLOOM and the MORNING STAR ARISES in your hearts. 20 But understand this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of or comes from ONE’S OWN [PERSONAL OR SPECIAL] interpretation, 21 for no prophecy was ever MADE by an act of human will, but men MOVED by the Holy Spirit SPOKE from God” 2 Peter 1:19-21/Amplified.
