IT’S TIME TO DARE THAT VISION

IT’S TIME TO DARE THAT VISION: “DARE TO TRIUMPH IN EVERY PLACE” – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

“It is God that GIRDETH me with strength, and maketh my WAY perfect. 33 He maketh my FEET like hinds’ feet, and SETTETH me upon my HIGH PLACES” Psalms 18:32-33 (2 Samuel 22:32-34).

It’s time to WAKE UP from your slumbering state, for it’s now a high and due time for you to – WRITE the vision down, MAKE it plain – simplified and  readable, READ to know and understand, then RUN with grace, wisdom and speed with it. And then, you can and will sing the Hallelujah songs of the VICTORY and TRIUMPH – as did Moses, Mariam and the Israelites in Exodus 15:1-21. What a principle to apply in the heavenly mandate in all that pertains to doing life and living godly that concerns you for today and tomorrow. Amen.

I can’t help taking 30years to READ to KNOW the VISION as JESUS CHRIST did, then RUN with the READ and UNDERSTOOD VISION as He did in His three and half years Ministry of FULFILLING the Father God’s given cause and purpose. And fulfilling the commissioned mandate and assignment of the Father by READING to know and understand was a set prerogative, instead of RUNNING aimlessly without full known PURPOSE and understood ASSIGNMENT for thirty-three and half years as some may do, or may have done and have been doing. And unfortunately, that’s tragically tragic – running aimlessly and being burnt out by putting the cart before the horse.

Now, I am asking you – what can you learn of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ – in His plan and pursuit in doing that which is to fulfill the PURPOSE of God as assigned to him. And how do you want to go about yours in purpose as touching to READ before you RUN, in any of these undermentioned but not limited life MATTERS if you want to TRIUMPH IN EVERY PLACE:

** Marital adventures

** Business Adventures

** Family Adventures

** Career Adventures

** Ministerial Calling Adventures

** Political Governance Adventures

** Leadership and Management Adventures

** Relationship Adventures

** . . . and many such like.

God wants you live victorious and triumphant, be a more than conquerors and an overcomer in everyway and everywhere of doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus; but you have to put the horse before the cart if you must have an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory in your endeavours. Hence, the enumerated but not limited above paragraph mentioned life matters are WORTH pondering if you are to DARE and TRIUMPH in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

“. . . 2 EVERY PLACE that the SOLE of your foot shall TREAD upon, that have I GIVEN unto you, as I said unto Moses . . .” Joshua 1:1-9.

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE FULFILLED

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE FULFILLED: IT’S BY THE PRINCIPLE OF THE WORD – AND NOT BY DEFINED METHODS!

In life ABUSE means – ABNORMAL (ABNORMALLY) USE. It’s a result of being UNINFORMED of the PURPOSE of a thing. There’s ABUSE in almost in every places in life – abuse of individual or people, position, power, resources (money, time and effort) and opportunities and materials.

An example of abusive atmosphere can be found in marriages. In some marriages, because majority of time most people are not properly INFORMED of the PURPOSE of MARRIAGE, they abuse their spouses. We see often how much is spent on FORTUNES in terms of – Time, Money, Material and Efforts – in preparing for a day WEDDING while those concerns make no adequate preparation and are not properly INFORMED to the set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for the intended MARRIAGE supposedly – that should be for life in grace till death do either or both apart. Hence, we see today many infightings and abuses within, and unnecessary reasons being given for divorce respectively. This OUGHT not to be, especially in a Born-Again Christian Home. And unfortunately, in most cases, where children are involved, it has created an incomprehensible and unimaginable devastating and depressing state of mind for the children in such marital relationship.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts. For by it many talents, vision and dreams to enhance life and godly living has ended up in the GRAVEYARDS unfulfilled.

In life as a child of God, you can only recover and enter your place of greatness and fulfilment when you discover the PRINCIPLE of the WORKING WORD of God to that your intended VISION. This is profound when one take the light from Habakkuk 2:2 which states “And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it”.

The scriptures did not say “He that RUNS or RUNNETH may READ’ but rather – “He MAY RUN that READS or READETH”. Meaning NO READING, NO RUNNING no matter the prevailing circumstances. The principle herein is this – you have to READ in order to acquire or until you obtain the required KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the said VISIONED CONCEPT – that is, the clarity to enable you WALK in WISDOM before running with that intended life vision in terms of – Executing Business/Enterprise, Pursuing a Career, Positioning towards Gospel Ministry, Governance in Politics/Governance, Leadership/Management, Marriage/Relationship of all sorts and many other such likes. When you don’t read before you run as Scripturally set, then failures and frustration awaits; just as many have fallen and become victims of their own creations; simply because of their RUNNING ahead by their mere ZEAL or PASSION, without READING to KNOW and UNDERSTAND, the FULNESS at hand of what it takes in their VISIONED CONCEPT.

Today, make amends, RE-EVALUATE your vision by READING again before RUNNING.

Therefore, as you set your day PLANS PURPOSE AND PURSUITS, endeavour to be sure by READING to UNDERSTAND before RUNNING with it. BE WELL INFORMED TO EXPERIENCE GENUINE TRANSFORMATION.

God wants you to both SUCCEED and be FULFILLED – it’s by PRINCIPLE and not by METHOD. For what may apply to one case may not apply to another hence application by METHODS will fail in most cases while application by PRINCIPLE will always triumph.

Have a gracious and graceful moment in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE MEANINGFULLY FULFILLED

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE MEANINGFULLY FULFILLED: AND IT’S BY THE PRINCIPLE OF THE WORD AND NOT BY METHODS!

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do ERR (ERRONEOUSLY, MISTAKENLY), not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29/Emphasis Mine.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

There’s an awaiting daily TRIUMPH, VICTORY, OVERCOMING and being A MORE THAN CONQUERORS for you in God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. However, in life we are face daily by THE POWER OF CHOICE . . . and that’s to BECOME by THE WORD of God or by our fleshly self-make-up belief or by man-made religious secularism or sectarianism and such like. For God’s WORD is IRREVOCABLE in all His promises . . . Hence, to BECOME in that desired yearnings of your heart by the enabling POWER of self-CHOICE in IGNORANCE of THE WORD of God is DEADLY, FRUSTRATING, UNPRODUCTIVE, DIFFICULT and DESTRUCTIVE. Therefore, SELAH – PAUSE and THINK.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts – which God abhorrest and winked at. [Acts 17:30-31]. For it breeds stupidity and fooolishness and arrogance. For by IGNORANCE, many talents, vision, dreams, aspirations and such like, that are needed to enhance life and godly living, has ended up in the graveyards UNFULFILLED. And those by chance to amanced anything by ignorance, have ended up in a deadly place of unproductivity as it’s thus written:

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (IGNORANCE, FOOLISHNESS, STUPIDITY, UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 21:16 Emphasis Mine.

In life as a child of God, you can only RECOVER and enter your place of greatness and fulfilment when you DISCOVER the PRINCIPLE of the WORKING of THE WORD of God. This is profound when one take the light from Habakkuk 2:2 which states:

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it”.

The scriptures did not say “He that RUNS or RUNNETH may READ” but rather that “He MAY RUN that READS or READETH”. Meaning NO READING, NO RUNNING, no matter the prevailing circumstances about you. The principle there, is this,  that you have to READ in order to acquire the required KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the VISIONED CONCEPT for an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory direction, that is to say, to obtain the clarity to enable you WALK in WISDOM before running with that life vision of Business, Career, Ministry, Leadership, Governance, Marriage (Marital-Relationships), Friendship-Relationship and such like the more.

If otherwise you RUN before you READ to know and understand the road map of your ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory, then failures awaits, just as many have fallen and become victims of their own creations. It’s because of their RUNNING by a mere zeal or passion without READING to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the fulness at hand of their VISIONED CONCEPT. Simply know for the truth that a good understanding breeds Favour, productivity, efficiency, effortlessness and calmness as it’s written:

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS (IGNORANCE) is HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE, STRESSFUL)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine).

Today, make amends, RE-EVALUATE your vision by READING again before RUNNING.

THE POWER OF CHOICE – To BECOME By The WORD Is BLESSEDNESS . . . And To BECOME By IGNORANCE Is DEADLY.

Have a graceful and blessed day.

FULFILMENT IN CHRIST

By Leave a Comment

FULFILMENT IN CHRIST: THE CHOICE OF – BEING FULFILLED IN LIFE And GODLINESS – VERSUS – BEING SUCCESSFUL!

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

Obedience to the heavenly mandate have a lot to do with FULFILMENT in Life and godliness in Christ Jesus. And the choice of being FULFILLED in life and godliness (godly living) is one great factor worth considering in the race of being SUCCESSFUL.

Can you afford to move from a place in pursuit of GLAMOUR SUCCESS TO A DESERT PLACE IN LIFE? But such could be a place of FULFILLMENT indeed. It’s about following God’s approved PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for your life and possible ministry rather than just having a mere SUCCESS for men applaud.

A person in pursuit of a MERE SUCCESS inclination will find it extremely difficult to leave a GLAMOUR place (position) to attend to a single person ministry especially to such one in the DESERT (remote) place as accomplished,  by Philip the Evangelist (Acts 21:8) as instructed by the Lord God. And such obedience to DIVINE order and instructions, is only possible of a person of and for FULFILMENT; that’s a follower of God’s plan, purpose and pursuit – the one who truly will believe in WHOLENESS and will go WHEREVER the Lord LEADS as Philip did in Acts 8 – “OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE”.

WHAT IS YOUR WORTH IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN CHRIST JESUS? or How do you WORTH yourself in life and godly living in Christ Jesus? Is it by material achievement called SUCCESS or by being ACCOMPLISHED in God’s given vision and mission called FULFILMENT in His assignment.

Are you just a mere crazy SUCCESS driven inclination person or a person of FULFILMENT in the heavenly assignment. Note for sure that SUCCESS is good and it’s of God (Joshua 1:8). Unlike success, FULFILMENT is not just only of God, but it’s a place of being readily, willingly and obediently set to accomplish in the wholeness, completeness and fulfilling of the Lord’s –  PLANS, PURPOSES and PURSUITS – in LIFE and GODLY living. Doing this unhindered and uncompromised with any sorts outside God’s intent, as Apostle Paul did in obedience (Philippians 3:1-16), and exhorted, admonished and charged Archippus to likewise do also as written in the Holy Writ of Colossians 4:17 and Acts 26:19.

It’s about living a God DRIVEN PURPOSE LIFE, that brings about MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus, which is far beyond – just being SUCCESSFUL.

FULFILMENT is in CONTINUOUS OBEDIENCE to God’s APPROVED plan, purpose and pursuit. And OBEDIENCE to the heavenly mandate is far better than SACRIFICE – Isaiah 1:19; 1 Samuel 15:23.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; JESUS OF NAZARETH, A MAN APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22.

“And the next day we that were of Paul’s company departed, and came unto Cæsarea: and we entered into the house of PHILIP THE EVANGELIST, which was one of the seven; and abode with him” Acts 21:8.

“. . . Then Philip went down to THE CITY OF SAMARIA, and PREACHED CHRIST unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which PHILIP SPAKE, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 AND THERE WAS GREAT JOY IN THAT CITY . . . 26 And the angel of the Lord SPAKE unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is DESERT. 27 AND HE AROSE AND WENT: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, 28 was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. 29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot . . . 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and PREACHED UNTO HIM JESUS. 36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; AND HE BAPTIZED HIM . . .” Acts 8:1-40.

“If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall EAT the GOOD of the LAND” Isaiah 1:19.

“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.

“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” 1 Samuel 15:23.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

THE EAGLE WAY: IT’S ABOUT – VISION TO MISSION!

By Leave a Comment

THE EAGLE WAY: IT’S ABOUT – VISION TO MISSION!

No MISSION can ever be comprehensive and achievable when there’s no VISION to it. Thus, indicating – IF THERE’S NO VISION – THERE SHOULD BE NO MISSION.

Leadership MISSION is only authentic as the VISION. It’s disastrous to LEAD WITHOUT VISION and to FOLLOW anybody with NO VISION, otherwise you will both perish in the MISSION. There’s no room for speculations where human life’s, money, time and materials are involved. A clear cutting-edge vision will always sustain mission no matter how long it takes and the opposition and challenges that will be involve.

The Eagles are known to be visionary, because of its highly sighted eyes. Foresight and insight is the great attributes that characterised this awesome creation of God. Hence it can take on it’s prey on the ground from its grandstand gliding sky with a calculated mission in such a grand style.

Where there’s leadership without vision, mission collapses, resulting the waste of finance, material, time and people. Hence, where there’s no vision, the mission of the family, marriage, relationship, business, career, ministry, government, governance, leadership and such like collapses. Infact, ANOINTING WILL BECOME ANNOYANCE due to the frustration of the mission; but by the indwelling Holy Spirit in you for insight and foresight, you can COLOUR your world and ENSURE the atmosphere you want to enjoy as VISIONED and VISUALISED.

So have a VISION, WRITE IT DOWN, THEN MAKE IT PLAIN – meaning endeavour to KNOW and UNDERSTAND it, READ it to your hearing for FAITH to BUILD UP before you RUN with it. DON’T RUN BEFORE YOU READ IT IN ORDER TO BUILD UP THE NEEDED FAITH TO WIN AND TRIUMPH WITH IT.

REMEMBER – READ BEFORE YOU RUN

IF THERE’S NO VISION – THERE SHOULD BE NO MISSION

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Where there is NO VISION, the PEOPLE PERISH: but he that KEEPETH the law, HAPPY is he” Proverbs 29:18.

“I will STAND upon MY WATCH, and set me upon the tower, and will WATCH to see what he will SAY unto me, and what I shall ANSWER when I am reproved. 2 And the Lord ANSWERED me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; BECAUSE IT WILL SURELY COME, IT WILL NOT TARRY. 4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the JUST shall LIVE by his FAITH” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“In the year that king Uzziah died I SAW also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. 2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. 3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. 4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. 5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine EYES HAVE SEEN the King, the Lord of hosts. 6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: 7 and he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. 8 Also I HEARD the voice of the Lord, saying, WHOM SHALL I SEND, and who will go for us? Then said I, HERE AM I; SEND ME. 9 And he said, GO, and tell this people, HEAR ye indeed, but UNDERSTAND not; and SEE ye indeed, but PERCEIVE not” Isaiah 6:1-9.

ENSURING YOUR ASSUREDLY YEAR 2024 ASSIGNMENT

By Leave a Comment

ENSURING YOUR ASSUREDLY YEAR 2024 ASSIGNMENT: WRITE THE VISION DOWN – READ TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU RUN – THAT’S TO ENABLE YOU TO ENACT THAT EXPECTED TRAJECTORY!

“. . . 14 And Jesus RETURNED in the POWER of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. 15 And he TAUGHT in their synagogues, being GLORIFIED of all. 16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, AND STOOD UP FOR TO READ . . . 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, THIS DAY IS THIS SCRIPTURE FULFILLED IN YOUR EARS. 22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which PROCEEDED OUT OF HIS MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:1-22.

God wants you to DARE to TRIUMPH in EVERY PLACE in Christ Jesus stead in this year – thus indicating that in WHATEVER you take as an adventure in creating, innovating, initiating and exploring, and in WHEREVER the sole of your feet should step upon in the cause and course of the given assigned plan, purpose and pursuit – you can possess for an INHERITANCE in Christ Jesus stead – by the word of God as enacted and authenticated in our REDEMPTION deed as we do life and living godly. Amen – [Acts 20:32; Joshua 1:3-9; Hebrews 6:10-12; Deuteronomy 1:6-8].

 And to achieve and advance in this year given set assignments, as in the context and concept of God’s Kingdom mandate cause, and to keep the enemy and cohorts at bay, and to fulfill PURPOSE meaningfully in LIFE and GRACE, you need to be ENSURED in order to be ASSUREDLY of “BEING TRIUMPHANT” IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS by these SCRIPTURAL demand:

  1. WRITE [in black and white] the YEAR set VISION down
  2. MAKE it PLAIN – simplified and not in complexity
  3. READ to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the VISION before embarking on the MISSION pact and pack
  4. Then RUN afterwards with GRACE, WISDOM and SPEED as been given in the principle of responsibility and accountability, diligence and prudence with the resource for doing life and living godly.

When you’ve done the above SCRIPTURAL context settings, then you can sing Hallelujah and begin the thanksgiving of thanks living lifestyle! That’s the principle to apply in the heavenly mandate in all that pertains to doing life and living godly in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

TAKING A LESSON FROM JESUS CHRIST [Luke 4:1-22] IN RETROSPECTIVELY:

It’s healthier to take 30years where POSSIBLE to WRITE and READ the VISION as Jesus did, then RUN with the READ, and the VISION – KNOWN and UNDERSTOOD – as our Saviour and Lord Christ Jesus practically did in humanity to accomplish a fulfilled three and half years Ministry of the PURPOSE – the CAUSE that the Father God commissioned Him while in His EARTHLY – HUMANITY – mandate [John 18:37; 1 John 3:8]. And it may seems 30yrs may be long timeline to wait and articulate for clarity of assignment, but it WORTHWHILE at the end, because it was rather BETTER waiting for clarity than RUNNING aimlessly without PURPOSE for thirty-three and half years as some may do and have been doing, and have no meaningful, purposeful, colourful and fulfilling heavenly backed up achievement, in their intent to DOING LIFE and LIVING GODLY.

I do encourage you to take time out to note this life touching matters about you that WORTH pondering and needs to be PURPOSEFULLY addressed for your own clarity in order to make the most notable and worthwhile decisions about such:

** Marital Worth adventures

** Business Enterprising Adventures

** Family Well-being Adventures

** Career Pursuit Adventures

** Ministerial Calling Adventures

** Political Governance Adventures

** Academic Acquisition Adventures

** Healthy and Healthy Living Adventures

** . . . and many such like.

All these mentioned above are WORTHWHILE pondering in the light of the SCRIPTURES for you to THRIVE in grace rather than being a SURVIVAL in SCRIPTURAL ignorance, stupidity and fooolishness. Put first you need as a matter of your RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY in PRINCIPLE toward diligence and prudence of your given resources and to make a blue print so that the SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS PONDERING IN CONTEXT will be meaningful and purposeful.

OUR ASSURED YEAR 2024 IS HERE – IT’S TIMELY, WISELY, AND NOTABLE THAT YOU – WRITE THE VISION DOWN – READ TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU RUN – FOR THAT WILL ENABLE YOU TO ATTAIN AND ENACT THAT SET TRAJECTORY YOU CRAVE TO OBTAINED IN LIFE AND GODLINESS IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN.

“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.

“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.

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

“GIVING THANKS to the Father who has QUALIFIED us to be PARTAKERS of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has DELIVERED us from the power of darkness and CONVEYED [TRANSLATED] us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through His blood, the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV.

“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.

“And I fell at his feet to WORSHIP Him. And he said unto me, See thou DO IT NOT: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the TESTIMONY of Jesus: WORSHIP God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the spirit of PROPHECY” Revelation 19:10.

“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.

“But the PATH of the just (righteous) is like the LIGHT OF DAWN, That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its FULL STRENGTH and GLORY in] the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18/Amplified

“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.

TRIUMPHANTLY ENSURING YEAR 2024

By Leave a Comment

TRIUMPHANTLY ENSURING YEAR 2024: YOU ARE BORN OF GOD TO SUCCEED AND BE FULFILLED – IT’S IN YOUR REDEMPTIVE DNA!

“Now THANKS be unto God, which ALWAYS causeth us to TRIUMPH in Christ, and maketh MANIFEST [REVEALS] the SAVOUR [FRAGRANCE, SCENT] of His KNOWLEDGE by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14.

“And having SPOILED PRINCIPALITIES and POWERS, He made a SHEW of them OPENLY, TRIUMPHING over them in it” Colossians 2:15 [8-15].

The last time I checked concerning your RIGHTS and PRIVILEGES of God in REDEMPTION deed in Christ Jesus stead, I can boldly say to you, that YOU ARE BORN of GOD and JUSTIFIED in His GRACE to SUCCEED and be FULFILLED in LIFE AND GODLY LIVING. And TRIUMPHING GLORIOUSLY is by the PRINCIPLE of the ASSURED WORD of God and not by METHODS or of any form of METHODICAL approach, and those that are fathom by any man out of God’s WORD in order to suit their pervert and adulteration. [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15].

“Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and spoke, saying: “I will sing to the Lord, for He has TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea! 2 The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My father’s God, and I will EXALT Him . . . 20 Then Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. 21 And Miriam answered them: “Sing to the Lord, for He has TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea!”” Exodus 15:1-2, 20-21/NKJV.

Triumphing gloriously is of your redemption  and God’s given will for you. And you can’t live less out of the context and concept of God’s WORD for your ASSURED TRIUMPH. Hence, the IGNORANCE of God’s principle in concept and context is dangerous and deadly in any form of application. That’s why is it’s NOT ENOUGH to KNOW of Christ Jesus, you must KNOW and UNDERSTAND also the PRINCIPLES He applied in solving and dealing with human life problems by the Holy writ in His humanity and His present day ministry with us today, as Saviour and Lord of all. And for this cause, the Holy Spirit is given to us to ensure that the ASSURED WORD of God is applied in the concept and context of the principle of the writ in order to help us enact and authenticate the Christ Jesus stead in us in redemption. Amen.

“And the TIMES OF THIS IGNORANCE God WINKED [OVERLOOKED] at; but now COMMANDETH all men every where to REPENT: 31 because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead” Acts 17:30-31/Emphasis Mine.

IGNORANCE is not just bad enough, but a DIS-EASE (UNEASE) place and position that is worst than cancerous disease of any sorts. For by IGNORANCE many talents, vision, dreams, aspirations and such like, that are needed to enhance life and godly living, has ended up in the GRAVEYARDS place UNFULFILLED and UNACCOMPLISHED. And God abhors ignorance at all points, hence we must quest for the knowledge of Christ Jesus to TRIUMPHANTLY live victoriously in every places  [2 Corinthians 2:14; Colossians 2:15; Exodus 15:1-2, 20-21]. And those by chance to amanced anything by ignorance, have ended up in a deadly place as it’s written –

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION [COMPANY] of the DEAD [DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE, EXPIRED]” Proverbs 21:16/Emphasis Mine.

In life as a child of God, you can only recover and enter your place of greatness and fulfilment when you discover the PRINCIPLE of the WORKING WORD of God. This is profound when one take the light from Habakkuk 2:2 which states:

“And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and MAKE it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it”.

The Scriptures DID NOT say “He that RUNS or RUNNETH may READ” but rather says, that “He MAY RUN that READS or READETH”. Meaning NO READING, NO RUNNING no matter the prevailing circumstances.

The principle to TRIUMPH therefore, is this,  that you have to READ in order to acquire the required KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the VISIONED CONCEPT in CONTEXT, that is, the clarity to enable you WALK in WISDOM before running with that life vision of yours, be it in – Business, Entrepreneurship, Career, Ministry, Governance, Marriage/Marital Relationships, Friendship Relationship and such like more.

When you CHOOSE to do life out of SCRIPTURAL context as a born again child of God, know for SURE that FAILURES awaits, just as many have fallen and become victims of their own creations. And it’s because of their RUNNING by a mere ZEAL or PASSION without READING to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the fulness at hand of their VISIONED CONCEPT. Be it known for the truth that a good understanding breeds Favour, productivity, efficiency, effortlessness and calmness as it’s written:

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS IS HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE, STRESSFUL)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine).

Today, make amends, RE-EVALUATE your VISION by READING it again to KNOW and UNDERSTAND it’s principle again before RUNNING with it. For life is a based on the POWER of CHOICE – To BECOME by THE WORD is BLESSEDNESS . . . And to BECOME by IGNORANCE is CANCEROUS and DEADLY . . . THEREFORE, CHOOSE WISELY.

HAVE A GRACEFUL AND BLESSED DAY.

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.

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

“We have also a MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost” 2 Peter 1:19-21.

“. . . And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“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 (SET APART)” Acts 20:32/Emphasis Mine.

“So mightily grew THE WORD of God and PREVAILED” Acts 19:20.

“And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath PREVAILED to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof” Revelation 5:5.

“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, THE WORD, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one” 1 John 5:7.

“This BOOK OF THE LAW SHALL NOT DEPART OUT OF THY MOUTH; but thou shalt MEDITATE therein day and night, that thou mayest Observe TO DO according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy WAY PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

“Now THANKS be to God who ALWAYS LEADS [CAUSES] us in TRIUMPH in Christ, and through us DIFFUSES [SPREADS, REVEALS] THE FRAGRANCE of His KNOWLEDGE in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:14/NKJV.

“Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and spoke, saying: “I will sing to the Lord, for He has TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea! 2 The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My father’s God, and I will EXALT Him . . . 20 Then Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. 21 And Miriam answered them: “Sing to the Lord, for He has TRIUMPHED GLORIOUSLY!

“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.

THIS CHRISTMAS PREP – SIGHTING AND VISUALISING THE UPCOMING OF A NEW DAWN YEAR

By Leave a Comment

THIS CHRISTMAS PREP – SIGHTING AND VISUALISING THE UPCOMING OF A NEW DAWN YEAR: STILL AT DECADE 2020’S – A DECADE OF SIGNIFICANCE!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS:

“Where there is no VISION, the PEOPLE perish: but he that keepeth the law, HAPPY is he” Proverbs 29:18.

“I will STAND upon my WATCH, and SET me upon the tower, and will WATCH to see what he will SAY unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it. 3 For the VISION is yet for an APPOINTED time, but at the END it shall SPEAK, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry” Habakkuk 2:1-3.

“The HORSE is PREPARED AGAINST the DAY of BATTLE: but safety is of the Lord” Proverbs 21:31.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY, NOBLE); he shall not STAND before MEAN (OBSCURE, SLOTHFUL, SLUGGARD, UNPRODUCTIVE) men” Proverbs 22:29.

“Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by 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: 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.

“For God is NOT UNRIGHTEOUS (UNJUST) 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 Emphasis Mine.

EXCELLENCE IS PURE

By Leave a Comment

EXCELLENCE IS PURE: ENVISION IT TO EXCEL!

“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.

Sometimes when I hear some so called Gospel Ministers and Christian faith believers say this : “IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT THEY DO AS LONG AS GOD STILL LOVES THEM’,  I begin to wonder what this life of grace has become to some, in the 21st century. Is it true that God STILL LOVES US IN FAITH NO MATTER WHAT WE DO? Who then will QUESTION the UNSAVED and what right do we have then to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the unsaved.

Know full well that God LOVES us, but that does not mean He does COMMEND a life being lived outside His WORD. As I have always said time and again that our God will ONLY COMMEND what He COMMAND and ORDERED. All things excellent will work for the good of those who not only love God BUT walk and do according to the course of His Word – Purpose. Romans 8:28-30.

Many times, God’s purposes of excellence to us, is so clear before us, but we need to walk and work in the course of that envisioned covenant of His grace; and if one begin to do any act of life outside His Word, we will surely loose out in our place of grace to excel. Apostle Paul says this in Galatians 2:21 “I do not FRUSTRATE the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain”. Meaning I do not do things that will make the GRACE of  God INOPERATIVE and INEFFECTIVE in my life. Amen.

An example of FRUSTRATING GRACE to rob one of EXCELLENCE in Christ Jesus stead is as this:

What happened to Reuben the first born of Jacob. Though born for an envisioned excellency to attain, he lost his place of blessedness to excel to his younger brother Joseph, for sleeping with one of His father’s wives in the SCRIPTURAL context as found in Genesis 49:1-4. You can’t eat your cake and have it. Grace for EXCELLENCE is not cheap or not to be taken for granted and done with despite as Hebrews 10:29 warns and enjoins:

“Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done DESPITE unto the Spirit of grace?”

When you look through the heroes of Faith in Patriarchal order of HEBREWS CHAPTER ELEVEN, you will noticed after Patriarch Jacob, the next name that comes is Patriarch Joseph instead of Patriarch Reuben, though he was his father’s excellency of dignity and first born worthy of double honour as the Scripture does recommend – Genesis 49:3; Deuteronomy 21:15-17; Genesis 25:31-33. That’s why you must be on guard on your ENVISIONED EXCELLENCE to avoid derailing in the grace of actualising your place in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead, of our REDEMPTION in Him. Acts 20:32; Hebrews 6:10-12; Ephesians 1:7 (Colossians 1:13-14; 1 Corinthians 1:30).

EXCELLENCE IS PURE! So, if you crave to have God’s good and best, watch your PATH OF LIFE to the ENVISIONED EXCELLENCE. 1 Timothy 3:9; Philippians 4:8.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK: Is it Scriptural true that it doesn’t matter what people do simply because God loves them? – Romans 6:1-4

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Moreover THE WORD of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, WHAT SEEST (ENVISION) THOU? And I said, I SEE (ENVISION) a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well SEEN (ENVISION): for I will hasten MY WORD to PERFORM it” Jeremiah 1:11-12 (Emphasis Mine).

“And Jacob CALLED unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. 3 Reuben, thou art MY FIRSTBORN, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: 4 unstable as water, thou shalt not EXCEL; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; then DEFILEDST thou it: he went up to my couch” (Genesis 49:1-4).

“. . . By FAITH Isaac BLESSED Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.  21 By FAITH Jacob, when he was a dying, BLESSED both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.  22 By FAITH Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. . .” (Hebrews 11:20-22).

“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.

“Unto the PURE all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled” Titus 1:15.

“I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with PURE CONSCIENCE, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day” 2 Timothy 1:3.

“Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a PURE heart, and of a GOOD CONSCIENCE, and of faith unfeigned: 6 from which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 7 desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm” 1 Timothy 1:5-7.

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are TRUE, whatsoever things are HONEST, whatsoever things are JUST, whatsoever things are PURE, whatsoever things are LOVELY, whatsoever things are of GOOD REPORT; if there be any VIRTUE, and if there be any PRAISE, THINK on these things” Philippians 4:8.

THE MANDATE TO – OCCUPY TILL I COME

By Leave a Comment

THE MANDATE TO – OCCUPY TILL I COME: INVOLVES FOLLOWING GOD’S PLAN, PURPOSE AND PURSUIT IN YOUR LIFE!

“And he CALLED his ten servants, and DELIVERED them ten pounds, and SAID unto them, OCCUPY TILL I COME” Luke 19:13.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

There’s the CHOICE to make in life in terms of either being – FULFILLED in life and godliness (godly living) – or to make the CHOICE of being – MERELY SUCCESSFUL in life as many have found themselves. And it’s only by following God’s PLAN, PURPOSE AND PURSUIT in your life that FULFILMENT in Christ Jesus stead comes to reality. That’s what it means for one to earnestly enact the charged, assigned and commissioned mandate to “OCCUPY TILL I COME”, so that you don’t just attained success but the fulfilment therein.

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

The quest there in the concept to – OCCUPY TILL I COME – is you are prepared to let God be the lead in the concept, especially when you are subjected to circumstances that’s different from your expectations as Philip the evangelist experienced by following God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for his life – Act 8:1-40; Acts 21:7-9. As Philip the evangelist in obedience – can you afford to move from a place of GLAMOUR SUCCESS to a DESERT PLACE in life when it’s God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for you? And especially when you know that in God’s plan, purpose and pursuit, the ride and drive may not always be pleasing but you can deduce it’s your place of FULFILLMENT in Him. I want you to know for sure that doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus, is all about following God’s PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for your life and possible ministry rather than just having a mere glamour SUCCESS for men applaud and hype. Following God’s plan, purpose and pursuit for your life it’s the only guarantees for God’s APPROVAL and your fulfilment in Him.

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this PURPOSE the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil” 1 John 3:8 (John 18:37)

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED (ACCREDITED , ATTESTED) of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22/Emphasis Mine.

“And we know [with great CONFIDENCE] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] CAUSES all things to work together [as a PLAN] for good for those who love God, to those who are CALLED according to His PLAN and PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/Amplified (Ephesians 1:11).

“Study and do your best to present yourself to God APPROVED, a workman [tested by trial] who has no reason to be ashamed, accurately handling and skillfully teaching the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15/Amplified.

A person who is keen only for a MERE glamour SUCCESS inclination and attachment, will not see the need to leave such GLAMOUR place (position) to attend to a single person business outfit’s or Gospel Ministry as Philip the evangelist did in obedience –  especially as to go to such a place in the DESERT (remote) which was accomplished by Philip the Evangelist – who sees obedience to God’s instructions far higher, richer and fulfilling as written in Acts 8:8, 26-29.

“. . . 8 And there was GREAT REJOICING in that CITY . . . 26 But an angel of the Lord SAID to Philip, RISE and PROCEED southward or at midday on the road that runs from Jerusalem down to GAZA. This is the DESERT [route]. 27 So he GOT UP and WENT. And behold, an Ethiopian, a eunuch of GREAT AUTHORITY under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure, had come to Jerusalem to WORSHIP. 28 And he was [now] returning, and sitting in his chariot he was reading the book of the prophet Isaiah. 29 Then the [Holy] Spirit SAID to Philip, GO FORWARD and join yourself to this chariot . . .” Acts 8:1-8, 26-40.

“And when we had finished our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day. 8 And the next day we that were of Paul’s company departed, and came unto Cæsarea: and we entered into the house of PHILIP THE EVANGELIST, which was one of the seven; and abode with him. 9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy” Acts 8:7-9.

And such obedience of Evangelist Philip to DIVINE order and command, is only possible of a person whose objective is not about being successful or to have a global or the glamour success but of being in obedience and FULFILMENT in Christ Jesus stead in God; Evangelist Philip was someone whose goal is to be a disciple and follower of God’s plan, purpose and pursuit; and one who truly believes in WHOLENESS of God’s lead and will go WHEREVER the Lord LEADS as Philip the  evangelist did in Acts 8. Such attitude toward God’s intent, is what I called and considered as one who is – OCCUPYING TILL HE COMES and OBEYING THE HEAVENLY MANDATE or ASSIGNMENT irrespective of the norm and prejudice that’s about the person.

Hence I am asking you today – WHAT IS YOUR WORTH IN GOD’S BLESSEDNESS IN CHRIST JESUS? or How do you WORTH yourself in life and godly living in Christ Jesus? Is it by material achievement called SUCCESS or by being ACCOMPLISHED in God’s given vision and mission called FULFILMENT in His assignment irrespective of the norm about you?

Are you just a mere glamour SUCCESS driven inclination person or a person of FULFILMENT in the heavenly assignment. It must be noted for sure that SUCCESS is good but it’s  relative in life to all and it’s of God however; but God’s earnest desire is for us in Christ Jesus stead to have and achieve FULFILMENT which is far beyond just being SUCCESSFUL. For we are blessed of God and He wants the best for us and to have us to be successful in our life’s endeavours but not at the EXPENSE of His eternal plan, purpose and pursuit for our well being in Him. Amen. So, there’s the need to balance the pursuit for success and to being fulfilled in God by following His plan, purpose and pursuit for us respectively as charged to – OCCUPY TILL I COME.

“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul prospers [spiritually]” 3 John 2/Amplified.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in HEAVENLY PLACES in Christ: . . . 5 having PREDESTINATED us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, . . . 11 in whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will” Ephesians 1:3, 5, 11.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

Unlike SUCCESS which is relative to all, FULFILMENT is not just only of God, but it’s a place of being readily, willingly and obediently set to accomplish in the wholeness, completeness and fulfilling of the Lord’s given and driven – PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT – in LIFE and GODLY living. And it’s in doing this God’s given and driven charge in an unhindered and uncompromising way; and with anything of sorts outside God’s intent, just as our Lord Christ Jesus did in 1 John 3:8; John 18:37 and Apostle Paul did in obedience as in Philippians 3:1-16, and upon which others like Archippus was exhorted, admonished and charged to do likewise also as written:

“And say to Archippus, TAKE HEED to the MINISTRY which thou hast RECEIVED in the Lord, that thou FULFIL it” Colossians 4:17.

“Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not DISOBEDIENT unto the HEAVENLY VISION” Acts 26:19.

BEING FULFILLED in life and godliness (godly living) is about living a God GIVEN and DRIVEN PURPOSE LIFE; that’s what brings about MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead; which is far beyond – from just being a merely SUCCESSFUL person by material accumulation that’s of no heavenly implications under God’s assigned plan, purpose and pursuit.

Therefore I urge you today to follow God’s PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT for your fulfilment in Him, in Christ Jesus stead, because success is RELATIVE in matters of doing life and living godly.
