By Leave a Comment

THE KINGDOM DEMAND: “OCCUPY TILL I COME”!

“. . . 12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, OCCUPY TILL I COME . . .” Luke 19:11-27.

Enjoying the enabling grace in the faith of BEING BORN of God is only as authentic and effective and effectual, to as much as you choose and be determined to take a stand to ensure and be assured, that you give no room for fallacy and any contrary to stain and pollute your TESTIMONY of God in Christ Jesus stead.

The kingdom DEMAND for each one of the Believer’s in Christ Jesus is to – “OCCUPY TILL I COME”. It’s not an advice to pick cherry and not of a choice to agree or disagree upon. It’s an order, a command, a mandate and an assignment. And because God in His word of instruction and command is not a taskmaster, or burdensome, or irksome or grievous, He has already made available His enabling endowments to ensure and assure that obedience to His WORD gives peace and tranquility irrespective and without prejudice.

“For this is the love of God, that we KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER]” 1 John 5:3.

The kingdom DEMAND as to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” in this context, is to ensure that you are not living less or out of what you ARE of God in Christ Jesus, in REDEMPTION, as His epistle that’s being seen and read of all men as written:

“Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? 2 Ye ARE our EPISTLE written in our hearts, KNOWN and READ of all men: 3 forasmuch as ye are MANIFESTLY declared to be THE EPISTLE of Christ MINISTERED by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart” 2 Corinthians 3:1-3.

And as being God’s Epistle or open letter that’s being read and known of men in Christ Jesus, it’s imperative that you live to ensure and assure that the fulness of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS that’s upon your life in all wisdom in graciousnesss and gracefulness. That you are not undermined by any means as by the bigots of religion and religiosity, sectarianism and denominationalism, traditional dogmas, creed, make belief and such like that makes the WORD of God of no effect in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Meaning, that, as an EPISTLE you are ensuring and assuring that you are STANDING uncompromisingly and unreservedly for who you ARE without prejudice by FAITH and not limited in this GRACE to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” as one that’s:

** A NEW CREATION of God in Christ Jesus [2 Corinthians 5:17]

** God’s AMBASSADOR/REPRESENTATIVES in Christ Jesus [2 Corinthians 5:20].

** A MORE than conquerors in Christ Jesus [Romans 8:37].

** An OVERCOMER in Christ Jesus [1 John 5:4-5; Revelation 12:11].

** VICTORIOUS in Christ Jesus stead [1 Corinthians 15:57].

** TRIUMPHANT in Christ Jesus stead [2 Corinthians 2:14].

** REDEEMED in Christ Jesus [Colossians 1:12-14/Amplified; Ephesians 1:7; Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29; Revelation 1:5-6; Revelation 5:9-12]

** A CHOSEN GENERATION, a HOLY NATION, A PECULIAR PEOPLE etc in Christ Jesus [1 Peter 2:9-10].

** . . . and MANY SUCH LIKE . . . in Christ Jesus stead.

Also, that you take a STAND by standing in grace by faith of ensuring and assuring of who you ARE, AGAINST any onslaughts and anything that contradicts and goes contrary to your REDEMPTION rights and privileges in Christ Jesus, as may be PERPETUATED by the enemy and cohorts of your FAITH stand in grace to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” demands of the kingdom. For we live in the perilous times and days where are out there are PERVERTERS of the Gospel; and we must vehemently resist their mode of operandi in everywhere by the WORD and in the lead power of the Holy Spirit, to keep the FAITH wherein we stand by GRACE, ensure and assured for our good and our hearers.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a ROARING lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 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, COMPLETE], STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you” 1 Peter 5:8-10/Emphasis Mine.

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would PERVERT THE GOSPEL of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have PREACHED unto you, let him be ACCURSED. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If ANY MAN PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that ye have received, let him be ACCURSED” Galatians 1:6-9.

“Beloved, when I gave all DILIGENCE to write unto you of the common salvation, it was NEEDFUL for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should EARNESTLY CONTEND for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are CERTAIN MEN CREPT IN UNAWARES, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, UNGODLY men, turning the grace of our God into LASCIVIOUSNESS, and DENYING the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ” Jude 1:3-4.

When you ARE able to take your stand FOR your redemption REALITIES and take stand also against any form of the enemy and cohorts strategy and crafty acts of deception in grace by God in Christ Jesus, you ARE indeed living by the Kingdom demand to “OCCUPY TILL I COME”.

Therefore, raise your head up, shoulders high and walk on your high heels of FAITH by the GRACE wherein you STAND, by God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, while enjoying the fulness and purpose to “OCCUPY TILL I COME” mandate.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

” Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then WE ARE AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

“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.

“But thanks be to God, which GIVETH us the VICTORY through our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Corinthians 15:57.

“Nay, in all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that loved us” Romans 8:37.

“For this is the love of God, that we KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER]. 4 For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by THE WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11.

“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of LOVE, knowing that I AM SET FOR THE DEFENCE OF THE GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice” Philippians 1:15-18.

“Brethren, be FOLLOWERS together of me, and MARK them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. 18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that THEY ARE THE ENEMIES OF THE CROSS of Christ: 19 whose end is destruction, whose God is their BELLY, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) 20 For our CONVERSATION is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to SUBDUE all things unto himself” Philippians 3:17-21.

A MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER

A MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER: THE UNPARALLELED ARMY – The CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead!

“Thou therefore, my son, be STRONG in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same COMMIT thou to FAITHFUL men, who shall be able to TEACH others also. 3 Thou therefore endure hardness, AS A GOOD SOLDIER of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that WARRETH entangleth himself with the AFFAIRS of this life; that he may PLEASE him who hath CHOSEN him to be a SOLDIER. 5 And if a man also STRIVE FOR MASTERIES, yet is he NOT CROWNED, except he STRIVE LAWFULLY” 2 Timothy 2:1-5

The Church of God as UNPARALLELED ARMY is a Militant-like Soldier who is daily at WAR in every aspect of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus stead. The Church of Christ is engaged constantly and continuously in spiritual WARFARE. And everyone born of God’s nature in Christ Jesus, needs to know it and be readily ready to get engaged whenever and wherever in this spiritual battle that has physical effect in our world with resultant challenges to life’s, families, communities, nations and more.

AND YOU ARE THE CHURCH THAT’S GLORIOUS, MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER AND TRIUMPHANT IN NATURE IN CHRIST JESUS TO WIN AND TRIUMPH DAILY AS SET AND ASSURED

The Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, though engage in constant militant spiritual warfare, is also a triumphant Church. Each warfare and battle defines, refines, refreshes, energizes, rejuvenates, refires and renews the Church; hence the Church is GLORIOUS in all, because its beauty is awesome despite satanic and cohorts efforts to fake, duplicate, pervert and counterfeit this glorious attributes.

Therefore, get engaged and don’t watch from the sidelines or grandstand else you become a victim and prey rather than a victor. You are a winner any day and anyway in everywhere as long as you know and understand that you are equipped as being born of God and filled with His Spirit to get engaged with this battles within and without. Ephesians 6:10-20.

The militant-like soldier – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, is at WAR with the FLESH within; and without, at WAR with the enemy and cohorts that’s against our FAITH in Christ Jesus; at WAR with spiritual forces and principalities and powers in heavenly and earthly places of doing life; at WAR with man-made religious dogmas and denominational entanglement and doctrinal sectarian bonds and traditional bye-laws and creeds in the name of God and at war with many such like as may be identified by the Holy Spirit in the WORD of God as He leads the Church – you, local and universal.

And this WAR and WARFARE is about our FAITH in our Lord Jesus Christ. Hence Apostle Paul says we should FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, indicating some fights are uncalled-for, not good fights, not fight worth engaging on and we should be aliens to them by every means. Suffice to know that the ENEMY and COHORTS are not necessarily after your physical possession and well being in their engagement of WAR and WARFARE against you. They are actually using the things you consider there are after as a distraction from the real deal. Their main target is your FAITH. To make you GIVE UP on your FAITH in God in Christ Jesus. Knowing that, as long as you steadfastness in God in Christ Jesus is steadily steady, you can ALWAYS recover all losses by the winning faith as Job deed. For Job recovered the MORE by taking the stand that the Redeemer lives in spite of all he went through with Satan and cohorts friends and wife against his stand in God – Job 19:25; Job 42:10-17.

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

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT (SMARTLY SENSITIVE, ALERT); 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. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:8-11;

And because we ARE at war and warfare, it takes a spirited Militant-Like Soldier stand to win and triumph daily and always as Apostle Paul admonished Timothy in the Holy writ of 2 Timothy 2:1-5. And to be a Soldier of Christ under the heavenly, wherein our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ is the captain of the host of God’s unparalleled army on earth with the angelic assisted army is a promise of full assurance of victory, triumph, overcoming and such like. Joshua 5:13-15. And this rare privilege to be a Militant-like Soldier is made possible by the grace of God and that gives us in earthly sphere the right to be His ambassadorial and representative in Christ Jesus stead – 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. And as such, there’s no room for errors and perversions in our walk in His stead. We need to war lawfully and obediently otherwise we will be court-martial and be declared upon with a “PERSONA NON GRATA” statesque for woefully defiling and disobeying orders as expected. 2 Timothy 1:1-5; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

Herein are some lessons to keep in minds as the UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God in Christ Jesus stead, in order to avoid the setbacks, set ups and create a safety and security net that’s WORTH doing to win in life and grace.

What is a Church? A Church is the you (an individual), the local and the universal body of born again (of God) Believer’s on the WORD of God in Christ Jesus, filled with and led by the Holy Spirit, having (under) a Shepherd.

The reason while this definition is important in the context of the scriptures is because there are many loose and loosely individual’s and locals Believer’s out there who belongs to no Shepherd or rather not under any Shepherd for reckoning – Hebrews 13:16-17. Such Believer’s are vulnerable or position in a vulnerability states knowingly and or unknowingly – which is a state of ignorance, fooolishness and arrogance and stupidity due to some zealousness without knowledge and understanding in context and perception.

For a while, my younger children have been watching a Netflix documentary program called OUR PLANET. In the course of them watching the program for the few occasions of sitting down around with the children, I was curious about how the Cat family – especially the Lion and Leopard can easily target up their prey in order to feed and make a meal off them. Most of the time, I discovered they are always looking out to target a stand-alone prey from the herds. And once identified, in their chase they can corner out that vulnerable stand alone, and their day meal is is set and made readily ready.

And it gives me a picture on how the ENEMY and COHORTS go about looking for that vulnerable stand alone Believer’s in Christ Jesus – who are not keen to have a covering Shepherd over their head. They roam about as spiritual harlots accountable to no one and none can account on their behalf – Hebrews 13:16-17. These Believers that belong to no fellowship or Local assembly or attend any gathering of God’s precious and redeemed people are exposed as lone soldier for the enemy and cohorts to PREY upon at challenging and difficult times.

DON’T BE A LONE MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER BELIEVER’S AND MINISTER’S IN THE BODY OF CHRIST GOSPEL MINISTRY

When you think because you can read the Bible and pray to Father God in Christ Jesus, speak in tongues of the Holy Spirit, makes you not to see the need to have interaction and communication and fellowship with other Believer’s of same like father – you are knowingly setting yourself as lone soldier. I have seen people who are more in bond and bound to their set denomination and doctrine and sectarians settings that when they come to a new dwelling places and can’t find the same kind of local assembly they came from, they are not going to worship and serve God wholeheartedly in any new places of gathering for worship.

And some immediately will either form their own gathering assembly as if that’s the only mark to worship and serve God worthily and acceptably and make heaven. And unfortunately, some Minister’s are not in any way out of this hook, because they have so much indoctrinated people with denominational spirit than with the Gospel of the body ministry of Christ Jesus, as such wants their members to use their opportunity to open up an extension of their denomination branch settings and immediately made such people Pastor’s overnight, even the individuals knows there’s no call of God upon their life for such spiritual placement and position – hence today there’s all manners of confusion and schisms and pevert and adulterations in the body ministry of the Gospel of Christ Jesus. And it’s of such like that Apostle Paul warns Timothy not to suddenly lay hands on any man for a spiritual high office to safeguard the body ministry – 1 Timothy 5:22.

In my watching over the natural national militant soldiers and interacting with some fews to hear their respective storyline, one thing I have learnt and can conclude from them is that they never fight alone without a team spirit and set back ups so that when there’s an injury from the enemy’s and cohorts side, there’s an immediate response to take their own out of the battle side whether dead or alive to preserved the honour and dignity and integrity to SERVE as soldier.

Unfortunately, in Church life over the years, especially where ignorance, stupidity and fooolishness and schism exist, I have seen from grandstand where fellow UNPARALLELED ARMY are abandoned and left for the enemy and cohorts to have a full feed day upon in the name of punishment or sectarians reason’s. Yet, the commandant of the UNPARALLELED ARMY, our Lord Jesus won’t abandon and let His own be devour but will take them along as good, chief and great shepherd of the sheep to nurse His own and strengthen them so that they can recover speedily and live to fight another day as David will do against the Lion and the Bear that came along his way with his father’s sheep he was shepherding – and he was able to keep the sheep safe, secure and protected as the scriptures recorded – 1 Samuel 17:34-37.

You ARE a MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER. You ARE THE UNPARALLELED ARMY. You ARE the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead. Be wise to take your place and PUT OFF the civilian uniform and PUT ON the armour of who you ARE in God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Colossians 3:9-15; Ephesians 6:10-18.

BLESSED REGARDS IN THIS READ IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS. AMEN.

“And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his SWORD DRAWN IN HIS HAND: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; but as CAPTAIN OF THE HOST of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant? 15 And THE CAPTAIN of the Lord’s host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so” Joshua 5:13-15.

“Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. 16 Behold, I have CREATED the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an INSTRUMENT for his work; and I have CREATED the waster to destroy. 17 No WEAPON that is FORMED AGAINST thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise AGAINST thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is HE that is IN you, than he that is in the world. 5 They ARE of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of ERROR” 1 John 4:4-6.

“It is true that I am an ordinary, weak human being, but I don’t use human plans and methods to WIN MY BATTLES. 4 I use God’s MIGHTY WEAPONS, NOT THOSE MADE BY MEN, to knock down the devil’s strongholds. 5 These WEAPONS can break down every proud argument against God and every wall that can be built to keep men from finding Him. With these WEAPONS I can capture rebels and bring them back to God and change them into men whose hearts’ desire is obedience to Christ. 6 I will use these weapons against every rebel who remains after I have first used them on you yourselves and you surrender to Christ” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (LB).

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not IMPUTING their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the WORD OF RECONCILIATION. 20 Now then, WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

THE UNPARALLELED ARMY – THE CHURCH OF GOD

By Leave a Comment

THE UNPARALLELED ARMY – THE CHURCH OF GOD: DEPICTS AS LOVING (LOVELY), GLORIOUS, MILITANT-LIKE SOLDIER AND TRIUMPHANT IN LIFE AND GRACE!

“For no one can lay a FOUNDATION other than the one which is [ALREADY] laid, which is Jesus Christ” 1 Corinthians 3:11 Amplified.

“Husbands, LOVE your wives [seek the highest good for her and surround her with a caring, unselfish love], just as Christ also LOVED THE CHURCH and GAVE Himself up for her, 26 so that He might SANCTIFY THE CHURCH, having cleansed her by the washing of water with THE WORD [of God], 27 so that [in turn] He might present THE CHURCH to Himself in GLORIOUS splendor, WITHOUT spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be HOLY [set apart for God] and blameless” Ephesians 5:25-27 Amplified.

The Church of God, depicted as the UNPARALLELED ARMY of God in Christ Jesus stead in comparison to any force and power known or yet to be known, in any human history (past, present and future), is superior and unparalleled as His commandant rules and reigns supreme in the heavenly, beneath the earth and also on the earth – at any time and any day and any where at the same time. For God is omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient and unlimited by geography and territories as He has apportioned it in the world. Acts 17:24-31; Ephesians 1:21-23 (15-21); Ephesians 3:20-21; Philippians 3:20-21.

The beauty to the graciousnesss and gracefulness and goodness of this unparalleled army, is that the captain of the host of the Lord’s army and accompanying Him for the unparalleled army is an indescribable and invincible angelic assisted being with such armoury that’s not of human craft for any warfare. Joshua 5:13-14; Hebrews 1:7, 14; Psalms 103:20. And this army is not limited by geography, people or tribe, culture, tongue, class or status, colour and such like but visible in every places of human dwellings on the planet earth.

“And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he LIFTED up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his SWORD DRAWN IN HIS HAND: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; but as CAPTAIN OF THE HOST of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant?” Joshua 5:13-14.

“And of the ANGELS he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire . . . 14 Are they not all MINISTERING spirits, sent forth to MINISTER for them who shall be HEIRS OF SALVATION?” Hebrews 1:7, 14.

“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that DO his commandments, HEARKENING unto the VOICE OF HIS WORD” Psalms 103:20.

The UNPARALLELED ARMY – the Church of God, is glamorous and authentic and genuine and real to making a difference in humanity as characterised for the following reasons but not limited:

* The UNPARALLELED ARMY – the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead is THE HEAVENLY AMBASSADOR, EMBASSY AND REPRESENTATIVE! – 2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Ephesians 6:20; Proverbs 13:17.

* The UNPARALLELED ARMY – the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead is EMBOLDENED AND FEARLESS. 2 Timothy 1:6-7; 1 John 4:17-18; Hebrews 2:14-15; Hebrews 4:14-16.

* The UNPARALLELED ARMY – the CHURCH of God in Christ Jesus stead is built on GOD’S HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS IN CHRIST JESUS. 1 Corinthians 1:30; Romans 10:1-4; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Romans 5:17-21; Romans 14:17; Romans 1:16-17.

* . . . and such like.

“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.

“Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to LOVE one another. 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his LOVE is PERFECTED in us . . . 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. 19 We LOVE him, because he first LOVED us. 20 If a man say, I LOVE God, and HATETH his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he LOVE God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who LOVETH God LOVE his brother also” 1 John 4:7-21.

“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 that he might present it to himself A GLORIOUS CHURCH, NOT HAVING SPOT, OR WRINKLE, OR ANY SUCH THING; but that it should be HOLY and WITHOUT BLEMISH. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself . . . 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and THE CHURCH . . .” Ephesians 5:25-33.

“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a GOOD SOLDIER of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath CHOSEN him to be a SOLDIER” 2 Timothy 2:3-4.

“Finally, my brethren, be STRONG in the Lord, and in the POWER OF HIS MIGHT. 11 Put on the WHOLE ARMOUR of God, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST THE WILES OF THE DEVIL. 12 For we WRESTLE not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand . . . 19 and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an AMBASSADOR in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak” Ephesians 6:10-20.

“For though we WALK in the flesh, WE DO NOT WAR AFTER THE FLESH: 4 (for the weapons of our WARFARE are not CARNAL (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.

“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest WAR A GOOD WARFARE; 19 holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck” 1 Timothy 1:18-19.

“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.

“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 . . . 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, 21.

“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the VICTORY through our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Corinthians 15:57.

“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.

“And they OVERCAME him by the blood of the Lamb, and by THE WORD of their testimony; and they LOVED not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11.

“Nay, in all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that loved us” Romans 8:37.

“. . . 20 Now then we are AMBASSADORS for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.  . . .” 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.

YOU ARE – GOD’S BATTLE AXE: THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST

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 prevail;

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 oppositions and challenges; and in spite of all the attacks of the ENEMY and COHORTS on God’s mandate – plan, purpose and pursuit.

“. . . 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’s an EVERLASTING KINGDOM, that endures and will endures through ALL GENERATIONS irrespective of the challenges, opposition and difficulties in the path way.

“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, God’s Church in Christ Jesus, it’s time to ARISE and BUILD with that selfless hearts of FAITH, HOPE and LOVE again, in order to set things alright in the human DECADENCE and PERVERSIONS that we all see EVERY DAY on our denominationized Churches, Homes, Streets, Roads, Governments, Communities and in every places 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 atmosphere we earnestly desired to color our worlds with God’s goodness until Christ Jesus returns for the fullness 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.

SINGING THE SONGS OF TRIUMPH

By Leave a Comment

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

May You Sing A New Song – In Month 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, unbelieve and such likes. They rather SANG the SONGS of royalty and priesthood that they BECAME in Christ Jesus, affordable to all across every tribe, tongue, kindred and nations – colour and race.

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

For Moses and Marian the Sister lead the song of the glorious TRIUMPH out of the bondage and hardship of their taskmaster in Egypt. They sang their Redemption songs with graciousness and gracefulness. They dance and celebrated their redemption. Why not you of today, born of God and filled with the enabling and indwelling Holy Spirit which they wish and earnestly desired – Hebrews 11:32-40. I guess they would have dance daily and more.

What sorts of SONGS are you into as a REDEEM child of God. Is it the FEAFUL-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 our declaration, proclamation, announcing, confessions, professing and such likes. Songs from our 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 our REDEMPTION DEED in Life and Godly Living.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

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.

4 Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.

5 The depths 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.

The GLORIOUS Church Of Christ Jesus: The Church – The You – Is Strong, Glorious, Militant and Triumphant!

However, the glorious Church though engage in constant militant spiritual warfare, is also a triumphant Church. Each warfare and battle refines, refreshes, energizes and renews the Church; hence the Church is glorious, because its beauty is awesome despite satanic and cohorts efforts to fake, duplicate, adulterate, dilute and counterfeit this glorious attributes.

YEAR/JANUARY 2023 – GEARED UP TO EXERCISE THE DARING FORCE OF FAITH

By Leave a Comment

YEAR/JANUARY 2023 – GEARED UP TO EXERCISE THE DARING FORCE OF FAITH: IT’S YOUR SYNERGY – TO A COLOURFUL, MEANINGFUL, PURPOSEFUL FULFILMENT – IN LIFE AND GODLY LIVING!

“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the KINGDOM of heaven suffereth VIOLENCE (OPPOSITION), and THE VIOLENT (DARING) TAKE IT BY FORCE (FAITH) “ Mathew 11:12 (Emphasis Mine).

May I say that the path to a colourful, thriving, meaningful, purposeful and fulfilment in DOING LIFE and GODLINESS are not built on MERE WISHES or WISHY-WASHY PROPHECIES. Otherwise as the saying goes, if WISHES where HORSES, BEGGAR’S will ride; and I add, I will own it too. Hence it’s written, that FAITH without corresponding ACTION is dead been alone.

“. . . 14 But wilt thou know, O VAIN man, that FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD? . . . 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO” James 2:14-26.

It’s Scripturally true and certainly, that God wants you to TRIUMPH always and in every place in doing LIFE and godly LIVING – 2 Corinthians 2:14. But colourful and blossoming living is not for the COWARDS, the MERE DREAMERS, the FEARFUL, the PRESUMPTUOUS, the TIMID, IGNORANT, SLOTHFUL (SLUGGARD) and those who are only craven in such like while expecting GREATNESS. Also, GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL living is not for those who don’t want to ARISE and GEARED UP, to put their FAITH to work; more so, to take on their life TEST CHALLENGES by the FORCE OF FAITH to make their PURPOSEFUL Living out of it and turn their MESS into a MESSAGE and TEST into TESTIMONY by grace in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“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 6:11-12.

Colourful, meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling life is for those who are DETERMINED to DARE and GEARED UP to EXERCISE their FAITH in the Lord no matter what it takes. People who are determined to leap over their walls of opposition BY THE FORCE OF FAITH. It may start small, but are geared to ensure that their FAITH IS AT WORK for their TRIUMPH. For each in Christ is given THE MEASURE OF FAITH by THE MEASURE OF GRACE also, to do life and triumph in all phase of living.

FAITH IS NOT A DOCTRINE OR CREED to be merely PREACHED but a divine mystery, that’s geared as the SYNERGY and DEFAULT in our lifestyle that we must LIVE OUT on a daily basis in order to be JUSTIFIED to reign and rule in dominion. Romans 12:3; Ephesians 4:7; Romans 5:1-2; 1John 5:4-5; 1 Timothy 3:9.

Only those who take a stand by the TRIUMPHANT FORCE OF THEIR FAITH that can take their opportunities and possibilities with time to overcome every opposition to their colourful life in the Lord.

Will you do that today and onwards and upwards to make your life meaningful and fulfilling? You need to EXERCISE THE DARING FORCE OF FAITH against the enemy and cohorts if you must win your day daily in YEAR/JANUARY 2023.

I pray you will DARE and GEARED UP your CHALLENGES and FEARS by the enabling of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in the VICTORIOUS FAITH in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE THYSELF RATHER UNTO GODLINESS. 8 For bodily EXERCISE profiteth little: but GODLINESS IS PROFITABLE UNTO ALL THINGS, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come” 1 Timothy 4:7-8.

“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.

“Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. And from the DAYS of John the Baptist until now the KINGDOM of heaven suffereth VIOLENCE (OPPOSITION), AND THE VIOLENT (DARING) TAKE IT BY FORCE (FAITH)”. Matthew 11:11-12 Emphasis Mine.

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

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

“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.

“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.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of offence TOWARD God, and TOWARD men” Acts 24:16.

“Through FAITH we understand that the WORLDS WERE FRAMED BY THE WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:3, 6..

For we as the Church have been given so much tremendous authority and power to bring about the atmosphere we earnestly desired to color our worlds with God’s goodness until Christ Jesus returns for the fullness of our God and well-being.

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.
