IT TAKES UNDERSTANDING TO PROFIT IN THE GRACE

May 3, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

IT TAKES UNDERSTANDING TO PROFIT IN THE GRACE: GET THE UNDERSTANDING IN ALL YOUR KNOWING AND PASSION!

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with ALL thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

The principle of good success, excellence, and genuine prosperity is built on a process. That’s why whatever happens without a process is a fraud, for even in our redemption, our God, ensures it all works out in a process to and in Christ Jesus, and not by magical appearance. For genuine miracle is a consequence of God’s WORD that’s scripturally activated in a process within the context. Hence, I have always said, and will always say, ‘until you UNDERSTAND whatever you claimed to KNOW or to have KNOWN in any matter of life and godliness, you are not better than the IGNORANT and the UNWISE fool’. For wisdom to succeed, prosper and excel in life is the application of knowledge. And the act of application requires an understanding of the process of the matter in context. So, there’s the need for the understanding to accompany any knowledgeable context, in order for the needed wisdom that attracts divine favours to be in operations.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS [Ignorant, puff up, fool, disobedient] is HARD [Difficult Challenging, Rough]” Proverbs 13:15/Emphasis Mine.

Having an idea is good, understanding your idea is another ball game. I have seen the assumed rich fall from the penthouse glory to be a beggar and have seen the one-time poverty-stricken rise to grace from grass. All because the assume rich just landed into wealth by a mere knowledge and zeal without understanding the take and know-how to sustain the position; while the once poverty-stricken took to knowledge know-how along with understanding of the journey, arrives there, lives to sustain it, in spite of all challenges and changes of sphere, in life weather conditions.

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION (Gathering, Places) of the dead (Unproductive, Foolish, Ignorant)” Proverbs 21:16/Emphasis Mine.

In the context of discussion, it thus means that:

Knowing your spouse is good, but if you don’t understand each other, there’s going to be a bomb explosion one day.

Being educated in a career or trade is good, but not understanding your career or trade will cause you a problem for yourself and to others probably one day.

Being a Gospel Minister is a gracious privilege. But not understanding the etiquette of being a Shepherd of looking well over God’s heritage will make you a hypocrite and wolf in sheep clothing.

Being a leader or in government or position of making decision is good, but if you lack the understanding for leadership and governance, you will destroy the RESOURCES of such position in terms of – PEOPLE, TIME, EFFORTS [PHYSICAL/MENTAL EXERTION], MATERIAL [EQUIPMENT] and FINANCE under your watch.

More so, a lack of UNDERSTANDING will cause you to always REACT, make EXCUSES and BLAME others for your inadequacy; It will cause you not to take RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for your actions; and a lack of PURPOSEFUL UNDERSTANDING to achieving meaningful RESULTS.

In UNDERSTANDING, the PURPOSE of a thing is ACHIEVED with GRACE. A lack of ALL NEEDED UNDERSTANDING makes people live a life without PURPOSE for themselves and others. It’s time to be PRINCIPLED by doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY through UNDERSTANDING in the GRACE wherein we stand to become all that God in Christ Jesus has done in us, is doing in us and through us by His WORD and the blessed HOLY SPIRIT of grace. Amen.

I know why the difference, the scriptures have an answer in all in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with ALL thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS (Ignorant, puff up, fool, disobedient) is HARD (Difficult Challenging, Rough)” Proverbs 13:15/Emphasis Mine.

“The man that WANDERETH out of the WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION (Gathering, Places) of the dead (Unproductive, Foolish, Ignorant)” Proverbs 21:16/Emphasis Mine.

SUMMARY:

The message emphasises the importance of UNDERSTANDING in profiting in God’s grace and achieving success in life.

Key Points:

WISDOM is principal, but understanding is crucial for applying knowledge and achieving success (Proverbs 4:7).

Without understanding, knowledge and passion can lead to failure and difficulties (Proverbs 13:15).

Understanding helps you navigate life, relationships, career, and ministry effectively (Proverbs 21:16).

Lack of understanding leads to:

Reacting instead of responding

Making excuses and blaming others

Lack of responsibility and accountability

Living without purpose

UNDERSTANDING brings favour, wisdom, and purpose in God’s grace.

Scriptural Focus:

Proverbs 4:7 – Get wisdom and understanding

Proverbs 13:15 – Good understanding gives favor

Proverbs 21:16 – Wander out of understanding’s way = unproductive

The message urges believers to seek understanding in all aspects of life to achieve genuine success, excel in God’s grace, and live purposefully.

HAVING AN “UNDERSTANDING IN THE GRACE”

May 2, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

HAVING AN “UNDERSTANDING IN THE GRACE”: WHEREIN YOU STAND IN CHRIST JESUS!

“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.

GRACE, the enabling of God to and for us to STAND and BECOME whatsoever we want to be in Him, can be frustrated, utilised unrighteously and in vain or as a vain thing, where UNDERSTANDING is absent and misleading – Galatians 2:20-21; 1 Corinthians 15:10; Romans 1:18-21). It thus means if only PASSION and KNOWLEDGE are all we have, the CONSEQUENCE of such is deadly to our walk and work of FAITH to STAND and BECOME, in God, in Christ Jesus (Proverbs 21:15; Proverbs 13:15). So it’s very imperative that every decisions – acts of FAITH we dare to put FORTH in the GRACE of God in Christ Jesus stead, must be well UNDERSTOOD, otherwise it will cost us the losses of – TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT (Physical and Mental Exertion), and sometimes people’s LIFE and LIVELIHOOD, no matter how much we’ve tried. In advancing the KINGDOM CAUSES of our God at any act and intent of living, and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay, PASSION and KNOWLEDGE is not enough – UNDERSTANDING is imperative and immeasurable in all.

“And of the CHILDREN OF ISSACHAR, which were MEN THAT HAD UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES, to KNOW what Israel OUGHT to DO; the heads of them were two hundred; and ALL THEIR BRETHREN were at their COMMANDMENT” 1 Chronicles 12:32.

Therefore, it’s not enough to be ZEALOUS and PASSIONATE about anything, neither is it enough to be full of KNOWLEDGE; but until you come to the UNDERSTANDING of what you are passionate and knowledgeable about to carry out, you can’t go far to the fullness of what you can be in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus stead.

“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with all thy getting get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

There’s therefore then the need to crave for UNDERSTANDING in the grace of God wherein we STAND as God’s People so that we can be the very best of God’s intent in our REDEMPTION DEED OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES, otherwise we will be as good as a fool and the ignorant. For its UNDERSTANDING that makes PASSION and KNOWLEDGE meaningful and fulfilling indeed.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK ABOUT IT SCRIPTURALLY!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Wherefore he saith, AWAKE THOU THAT SLEEPEST, AND ARISE FROM THE DEAD, and Christ shall GIVE THEE LIGHT. 15 See then that ye WALK CIRCUMSPECTLY, not as fools, but as wise, 16 REDEEMING THE TIME, because the days are evil. 17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, BUT UNDERSTANDING WHAT THE WILL OF THE LORD IS” Ephesians 5:14-17.

“And of the children of Issachar, which were MEN THAT HAD UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES, to know what Israel OUGHT to do; the HEADS of them were two hundred; and ALL THEIR BRETHREN were at their COMMANDMENT” 1 Chronicles 12:32.

“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: AND WITH ALL THY GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 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.

“Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 cease not to GIVE THANKS FOR YOU, MAKING MENTION OF YOU IN MY PRAYERS; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, MAY GIVE UNTO YOU the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: 18 THE EYES OF YOUR UNDERSTANDING BEING ENLIGHTENED; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is THE EXCEEDING GREATNESS OF HIS POWER to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 FAR ABOVE ALL principality, and power, and might, and dominion, AND EVERY NAME THAT IS NAMED, NOT ONLY IN THIS WORLD, BUT ALSO IN THAT WHICH IS TO COME: 22 and hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head OVER ALL THINGS TO THE CHURCH, 23 which is his body, the FULNESS of him that filleth all in all” Ephesians 1:15-23.

Further Scriptural Reading Text: Galatians 2:20-21; 1 Corinthians 15:10; Romans 1:18-21.

Personified Prayer Scriptures: Ephesians 1:15-23; Colossians 1:9-20.

SUMMARY:

The message emphasises the importance of having an UNDERSTANDING IN THE GRACE of God, wherein we stand in Christ Jesus (Romans 5:1-2).

Key Points:

GACE enables us to stand and become what we want to be in Christ, but it can be frustrated or misused without understanding (Galatians 2:20-21, 1 Corinthians 15:10).

Passion and knowledge aren’t enough; understanding is crucial for success in our walk and work of faith (Proverbs 21:15, 13:15).

Understanding helps us make wise decisions, redeem time, and know God’s will (Ephesians 5:14-17, 1 Chronicles 12:32).

We must crave understanding in God’s grace to fulfill His intent in our redemption (Proverbs 4:7, Ephesians 1:17-18).

Scriptural Focus:

Romans 5:1-2 – Justified by faith, access to God’s grace

1 Chronicles 12:32 – Men of Issachar had understanding of the times

Proverbs 4:7 – Get wisdom and understanding

Ephesians 5:14-17 – Walk wisely, understanding God’s will

The message urges believers to seek understanding in God’s grace to maximise their faith, avoid mistakes, and fulfill God’s purpose

EARNESTLY DESIRE THE PRINCIPAL THING

April 15, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

EARNESTLY DESIRE THE PRINCIPAL THING – [WISDOM] – IN YOUR PASSION: THAT’S THE PATH TO GRACIOUSNESS AND GRACEFULNESS!

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be SAVED. 2 For I bear them RECORD that they have a ZEAL of God, but not ACCORDING to KNOWLEDGE. 3 For they being IGNORANT of God’s righteousness, and going about to ESTABLISH their OWN righteousness, have NOT SUBMITTED themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth” Romans 10:1-4.

To have ZEAL, being zealous, otherwise called PASSION is good, but if without KNOWLEDGE, it’s dangerous and deadly – it’s full of foolishness, frustration and equally erroneous too [Romans 10:1-4]. A mere zealous or zealousness or just being passionate can create mistaken atmosphere due to pure ignorance especially in context of matters except there’s knowledge in the passion of which Jesus rebuked the Sadducees of their erroneous and mistaken acts to the context of resurrection as an example.

“. . . 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR [DO ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY], NOT KNOWING the scriptures, nor the power of God . . .” Matthew 22:29 [23-33].

And KNOWLEDGE is good, but without UNDERSTANDING, it breeds arrogance, pride and rudeness. The place of knowledge cannot be taken lightly in every phase of doing life and living GODLY in Christ Jesus stead. Knowledge emancipates and delivers from all forms of stupidity, ignorance, and foolishness.

“Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have KNOWLEDGE. KNOWLEDGE PUFFETH UP, but charity edifieth” 1 Corinthians 8:1.

But where ZEAL (passion) and KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING are together, therein is the WISDOM to do life and much more. The WISDOM to be accomplished and fulfilled in life will always show up. Proverbs 4:5-7.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Get WISDOM, get UNDERSTANDING: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. 6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. 7 WISDOM is the principal thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with all thy getting get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:5-7.

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a ZEAL of God, but not according to KNOWLEDGE. 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth” Romans 10:1-4.

“Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have KNOWLEDGE. KNOWLEDGE PUFFETH UP, but charity edifieth” 1 Corinthians 8:1.

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the WAY of TRANSGRESSORS is HARD [DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE]” Proverbs 13:15/Emphasis Mine.

“Good UNDERSTANDING wins FAVOR, but the WAY of the TRANSGRESSOR is hard [like the BARREN, DRY soil or the IMPASSABLE swamp]” Proverbs 13:15/AMP Classic Edition.

“The man that WANDERETH OUT OF THE WAY of UNDERSTANDING shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD” Proverbs 21:16.

“A man who WANDERS from the WAY of UNDERSTANDING (GODLY WISDOM) will REMAIN in the ASSEMBLY of the DEAD” Proverbs 21:16.

Further Scriptural Reading: Proverbs 16:16; 4:5; James 1:5.

SUMMARY:

The message emphasises the importance of combining zeal (passion) with knowledge and understanding to achieve wisdom, which is the principal thing. Having zeal without knowledge is dangerous and can lead to foolishness, frustration, and error, as seen in the example of the Sadducees (Matthew 22:23-33, Romans 10:1-4).

Key points:

Zeal and passion are good, but without knowledge, they’re incomplete and potentially destructive.

Knowledge without understanding breeds arrogance and pride (1 Corinthians 8:1).

When zeal, knowledge, and understanding come together, wisdom is the result, leading to a fulfilling life (Proverbs 4:5-7).

Wisdom is the principal thing to seek and acquire (Proverbs 4:7).

Good understanding gives favour and leads to a productive life (Proverbs 13:15).

Scriptural references support the importance of seeking wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to live a godly life. The message encourages readers to earnestly desire wisdom in their passion and pursuits.

Supporting scriptures:

Proverbs 4:5-7 (get wisdom, get understanding)

Romans 10:1-4 (zeal without knowledge is incomplete)

Matthew 22:29 (Jesus rebuked the Sadducees for lacking knowledge)

1 Corinthians 8:1 (knowledge puffs up, but charity edifies)

Proverbs 13:15 (good understanding gives favour)

The message concludes that wisdom is key to a fulfilling life, and readers are encouraged to seek it in their passions and pursuits

IN YOUR REDEMPTION DEED OF RIGHTS

April 4, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

IN YOUR REDEMPTION DEED OF RIGHTS: ENSURE YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSION IN CHRIST JESUS!

Beloved of God, it’s imperative that in your redemption deed of rights, you ensure you possess your possession, living godly in Christ Jesus stead. This happens when your faith communicates effectively to life’s matters – earthly or heavenly – in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION (COMMUNICATION) of our FAITH without WAVERING; for He is FAITHFUL that promised” Hebrews 10:23 Emphasis Mine..

Beloved in Christ, enough of complain-hallelujah life style over these years, it’s your time in Christ Jesus to enact, ensure and actualise the essence of being born of God.

There’s a DEED OF RIGHTS IN REDEMPTION with your name ENGRAVED in it by the virtue of being born of God in Christ Jesus, but it’s your prerogative to ask, seek and knock after it to make it a reality for you.

You need to know also that your REDEMPTION reality can only be made possible:

FIRSTLY, through the ACKNOWLEDGING of your BILL OF RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IN THE KINGDOM as a result of our Christ Jesus – DONE DEED – for you and all in Him;

And SECONDLY by your UNDERSTANDING of the KNOW-HOW of COMMUNICATING your KNOWN FAITH in Christ Jesus to matters of LIFE and GODLINESS in ALL about living life even as it’s written:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6 (Emphasis mine).

Until you ENSURE, ENACT, and ACTUALISE REDEMPTION’s essence in you, your FAITH COMMUNICATION to life matters will struggle, feel strange, tasking, and burdensome – contrary to 1 John 5:3. That’s why there are many ‘AMEN’, ‘HALLELUJA’ and ‘BLESS ME’ Christians, despite their efforts in Church, fasting, prayers, traditions. But this OUGHT not to be so in Christ, REDEMPTION’s essence should impact EVERY AREA of life.

You APPROPRIATE and ENACT through PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of what God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD via the HOLY SPIRIT.

Here are REASONS to seek KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of God’s DONE DEED for you in Christ Jesus, to APPROPRIATE your REDEMPTION into reality as a POSSESSION:

That a man’s ignorance is His own mountain, but the knowledge of the truth gives freedom and dominion – John 8:32.

That knowledge will deliver you from life and scriptural errors, and helps one engage with God’s power to save, deliver and restore – Matthew 22:29.

That whatever you have no value for you have no access to – Mark. 6:5-6.

That studying for knowledge is not a transferable responsibility – 2 Timothy 2:15.

That the only authentic proof of knowledge is freedom and liberty – John 8:32.

That when you don’t grow in the spirit of knowledge, you end up groaning in life – 2 Peter 3:18.

That those who seek to know men, don’t know God; when you seek to know God, people will seek to know you – Jeremiah 17:5-8; Matthew 6:24.

That your knowledge of Jesus makes you absolutely sure of tomorrow – John 17:3; Isaiah 33:6.

And you can’t POSSESS a lasting POSSESSION with unsecured knowledge – Proverbs 25:2; Job 23:12; Matthew 22:29.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“That the COMMUNICATION of your FAITH may become EFFECTUAL (productive, result oriented, effective) by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6 (Emphasis mine).

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR, not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29.

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is ABLE to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32.

“But what saith it? The WORD is nigh thee, even in thy MOUTH, and in thy HEART: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we PREACH; 9 that if thou shalt CONFESS with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt BELIEVE in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. 10 For with the HEART man believeth unto righteousness; and with the MOUTH confession is made unto SALVATION” Romans 10:8-10.

Further Scriptural Reading: Hebrews 6:10-12; Obadiah 1:17; Deuteronomy 1:6-8; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29; Genesis 12:1-3.

Reasons to seek knowledge and understanding include:

Freedom from scriptural errors and life’s challenges (Matthew 22:29)

Dominion in life (Daniel 11:32)

Power, freedom, and dominion (John 8:32, Luke 11:52)

Goodness and mercy (Proverbs 1:22, 29-33)

Heaven’s favor (Proverbs 13:15, Hosea 4:6, Isaiah 5:13-15)

Updated thoughts and a better life (Proverbs 24:5, Proverbs 4:18)

The message encourages believers to prioritise knowledge and understanding of God’s Word, acknowledging their redemption rights, and communicating faith effectively to experience the reality of redemption in every area of life.

Scriptural references support the importance of knowledge, faith, and understanding in experiencing redemption essence.

April 4, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

ENSURE YOU POSSESS YOUR POSSESSIONS IN YOUR REDEMPTION BILL OF RIGHTS: ONLY MADE POSSIBLE BY YOUR FAITH COMMUNICATION!

That’s why there are many ‘Amen’, ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Bless me’ Christians despite their efforts in the Church, fasting, prayers and religious practices to make REDEMPTION’s essence real in EVERY AREAS of life. And this OUGHT not to be so in Christ and for all Christ is to us in Him by REDEMPTION.

You can only APPROPRIATE and ENACT through a PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of your REDEMPTION in Christ of all that God has DONE IN YOU, DONE FOR YOU, DONE WITH YOU, and is DOING THROUGH YOU by His WORD through the promised given HOLY SPIRIT, supposedly.

IT’S TIMELESS TIMES – SUCH A TIME AS THIS GENERATION

March 23, 2026 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

IT’S TIMELESS TIMES – SUCH A TIME AS THIS GENERATION: DON’T BE IN A DESPONDENT STATE – SEEK A FRIEND, PASTOR, COUNSELOR!

“Without COUNSEL PURPOSES ARE DISAPPOINTED: but in the MULTITUDE of COUNSELLORS, they are ESTABLISHED” Proverbs 15:22.

It’s TIMELESS TIMES with many reasons to be in a DESPONDENT state – an UNHEALTHY state. But in a time like this, you don’t have to be in a DESPONDENT state. To have leverage and move into an onward and upward trajectory with God in Christ Jesus, it’s time to crave, seek, pursue and follow the path that gives you the KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING you need through counselling. That way, you can thrive and move onward and upward, out of the darkness that has bewildered you. Know this truth: there’s light of God shining out of the midst of the dark, by God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For God, who COMMANDED the LIGHT to shine OUT of DARKNESS, hath SHINED in our HEARTS, to give the LIGHT of the KNOWLEDGE of the GLORY of God in the FACE of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

More so, you can get help through finding [and confiding on] a reliable and trusted FRIEND, PASTOR and COUNSELOR to help you out of any of the dark and darkness in whatever form of DESPONDENCY into the light of life in Christ Jesus stead; and by such wisdom nugget counsel, you can thrive and live again in God’s grace, wisdom and speed in every way in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“A man that hath friends must SHEW himself FRIENDLY: and there is a friend that STICKETH CLOSER than a brother” Proverbs 18:24.

It’s always good and healthy for me to take time – one –on- one – to share life matters with a gracious person, a TRUSTED Sister, friend, or confidant, in a relaxed and leisurely moment, without prejudice, sentiments, or pretence. And you can find one and keep it alive, refreshing, rejuvenating, rekindling and ongoing while it lasts, like I do. Life is good and enriching with God, having one good, God reverential fearing Friend, Pastor, or Counselor – at least one you can rely on and trust without shame or fear. Someone you can also be honest and open-hearted with, share with, even in tears over a shameful fault, without being judged. That will help you and give you the enabling gracious path you need to thrive again and fulfil the God-given and God-driven-purpose being affected by your current despondent state.

“Without COUNSEL PURPOSES ARE DISAPPOINTED: but in the MULTITUDE of COUNSELLORS, they are ESTABLISHED” Proverbs 15:22.

It’s true there may have been many disappointing friends, pastors, or counselors to TRUST and RELY ON, but I know you can still find one TRUSTED one among many- as you ensure you are TRUSTWORTHY too, in expecting the same from OTHERS. And you can find one today, that can BOOST your FAITH, HOPE and LOVE of God in Christ Jesus stead, no matter how bad it seems; this is only possible if you can make an effort to reach out to them without shame, pride and arrogance, rather than staying in a state of being DESPONDENT about life generally – for there’s a gracious opportunity out there under God, to give you the leverage you need for an onward and upward trajectory in doing life and loving godly by God in Christ Jesus stead.

“And I will GIVE you PASTORS according to mine HEART, which shall FEED you with KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING” Jeremiah 3:15.

Just as we seek after trusted Pastor’s and friends, to FEED us without prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation, it’s important to ensure that such counsel and counselling of help is built on the PRINCIPLE of rightful knowledge and understanding in God’s Word to authenticate your redemption in Christ Jesus – this is to enable you do life in the grace, effectually and efficiently; hence, you must endeavour to get a trusted, and God reverential fearing FRIEND – PASTOR – COUNSELOR, that won’t market you for their selfish, self-centredness and self-gratification, while on your part, you can be HONEST enough to detail matters even to a fault and feel safe in every way in LIFE and GRACE.

Although it may be rare to get a trusted, honest, and God reverential fearing person, they ARE there – people of goodwill and love of God in Christ Jesus stead. When you take a step of faith, acting by the Holy Spirit within you for direction, don’t stay STUCK or sit STATIC in life and suffer when there’e help out there for your good and wellbeing. God has more to do in and through you than you can imagine in your LONE or LONELY path or self-defeat position. No matter how bad things are today, cornering you to a despondent state, always remember this scriptural thought:

“. . . 16 for a just [justified, righteous] man FALLETH seven times, and RISETH up again . . .” Proverbs 24:15-18/Emphasis Mine.

It’s time to BELIEVE again in order to create, innovate, initiate and explore God’s given opportunities and endowments out there. Get a trusted and faithful friend, Pastor, or counselor, that you can sit together and share your hearts without shame, fear and prejudice even if it’s to a fault by being honest to yourself, to God, and to your counselor.

There’s hope in God. There’s a miracle. God is faithful, true, and sure. His gift and callings are without repentance [irrevocable] except you refuse God’s enabling opportunity in His grace and BLESSEDNESS. I know it, hence I challenge you today – don’t give up due to one mistake, failure, or moment that went very badly directly or indirectly by you. In God, there’s a rising up again. DON’T BE A LONER WHERE THERE’S OPPORTUNITY AND HOPE IN CHRIST JESUS!

May you find a reason to rise again today. God loves and cares about you, even so, do so in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
