AS CHRIST IS, SO ARE YOU AND I IN THIS WORLD (1)!
It saddens me to see genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World thinks, speaks and lives as if they are like the people of this World, who are FOOLISH and POWERLESS in the sight and side of GOD in this World. So sad!
Many genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World are not aware that at their genuine moment of personal SALVATION in Christ, God has ANOINTED them with the PRESENCE (WISDOM) of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT). So sad!
So, many still thinks, speaks and acts as ignorant as the people of the World. This is because they have not taken time to personally search the scripture to know WHO they are in CHRIST and WHAT they have in CHRIST in this World like the Christians in Berea, who Apostle called noble Christians. So sad! (Acts 17:10,11).
No wonder, God declares that His people are destroyed for LACK of KNOWLEDGE and because of that, they are dying like men and falling like the princes of this World. So sad. (Hosea 4:6; Psalm 82:6,7; Proverbs 11:9).
Therefore, permit me to request from you to watch-out as the the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in and through me in the next couple of days step out to inform and remind you and I that:
...As He (JESUS CHRIST) is, so are we (you and I who are genuinely and currently born-again in Him is) in this World. Halleluyah! (1 John 4:17).
However, for today, I will be informing you that as JESUS CHRIST is:
ANOINTED in this World, so are you and I (who are genuinely and currently born-again in Him) is ANOINTED by GOD in this World.
The Bible reveals that JESUS CHRIST was ANOINTED thus:
How God ANOINTED Jesus of Nazareth with the HOLY GHOST and with POWER. Who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil. For God was with Him. (Acts 10:38).
JESUS CHRIST was ANOINTED by GOD:
1. With the PRESENCE (WISDOM) of the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD
2. With the POWER of the HOLY SPIRIT of God.
In other words, JESUS CHRIST was first full with the PRESENCE (WISDOM) of the HOLY SPIRIT before He was full with the POWER of the HOLY SPIRIT. (Luke 4:1-14, take note of verses 1 and 14).
That is why, the Bible reveals that:
But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks (the rest of the World), CHRIST the POWER of GOD and the WISDOM of GOD. (1 Corinthians 1:24).
Do you get it?
Therefore note and know that:
1. At your genuine moment of personal SALVATION in Christ in this World, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) is sent by God the Father to come INTO you as the WISDOM of GOD, to spiritually and supernaturally teach, guide, help, strengthen and comfort you as you specifically and uniquely become just as JESUS CHRIST is in CHARACTER (fruits of the Spirit) in this World:
through STUDYING the Word of God and SUFFERING (chastisements, trials and tests of all kind as permitted by GOD and) as inspired by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) from within you par time and season of your living in this World as you journey from Earth to Heaven. (Luke 24:36-52; Romans 8:9-30; Hebrews 5:8-10; Hebrews 12:1-14; Galatians 5:14-26).
This confirms you as a holy PRIEST (oracle or god) of GOD in Christ in this World, who is expected to reign tasting as divine SALT (with divine CHARACTER) of Christ in this World. Halleluyah! (Revelation 5:9,10; 1 Peter 2:5,9,10; Hebrews 5:12-15; 1 Peter 4:10,11; Psalm 82:6,7; Matthew 5:13; John 10:34,35; Hosea 4:6; 2 Timothy 2:15; Proverbs 11:9).
2. At your genuine moment of personal PENTECOST in Christ in this World, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) is sent by God the Father to come UPON you as the POWER of GOD, to spiritually and supernaturally equip and empower you as you specifically and uniquely become just as JESUS CHRIST is in COMPETENCE (gifts of the Spirit) in this World:
through PRAYER and FASTING as inspired by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) from within you par time and situation of your living in this World as you journey from Earth to Heaven. (Romans 8:9,26-30; Acts 1:1-14; Acts 2; 1 Corinthians 12).
This confirms you as a holy KING of GOD in Christ in this World, who is expected to reign shining as divine LIGHT (with divine COMPETENT) of Christ in this World. Halleluyah! (Revelation 5:9,10; Matthew 5:14-16; 1 Peter 2:9,10).
The Bible reveals thus:
Arise, SHINE. For your LIGHT is COME and the GLORY of the LORD is risen UPON you.
For, behold, the DARKNESS shall cover the EARTH and GROSS DARKNESS cover the PEOPLE. But the LORD shall arise UPON you and His GLORY shall be seen UPON you.
And the Gentiles shall COME to your LIGHT and KINGS to the BRIGHTNESS of your RISING...(Isaiah 60; John 1:1-14; Romans 3:23; Matthew 5:14-16).
That is why, after JESUS CHRIST resurrected and met His disciples as the visible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT):
1. He first gave them WISDOM as the visible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), before
2. He told them to wait for the POWER from Him as the invisible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT). Hallelujah!
The Bible reveals thus:
And as they thus spoke, JESUS Himself stood in the midst of them and said unto them, Peace be unto you.
But they were terrified and affrighted and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
And He said unto them, why are you troubled? And why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see. For a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see Me have.
And when He had thus spoken, He showed them His hands and His feet.
And while they yet believed not for joy and wondered, He said unto them, have you here any meat?
And they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and of an honeycomb.
And He took it and did eat before them.
And He said unto them, these are the words which I spoke unto you, while I was yet with you, that ALL things must be FULFILLED, which were written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, concerning Me.
Then OPENED He their UNDERSTANDING (gave them WISDOM), that they might UNDERSTAND the scriptures,
And said unto them, thus it is written and thus it behoved (ordained) CHRIST to SUFFER and to RISE from the DEAD the third day:
And that REPENTANCE and REMISSION of sins should be preached in His name among ALL nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
And you are witnesses of these things.
And, behold, I SEND the PROMISE of my Father UPON you. But TARRY you in the city of Jerusalem, until you be ENDUED with POWER from on high.
And He led them out as far as to Bethany and He lifted up His hands and blessed them.
And it came to pass, while He blessed them, He was parted from them and carried up into Heaven.
And they worshipped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.
And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen. (Luke 24:36-52; Acts 1:1-14; Acts 2).
Do you get it?
Therefore, note and know that at your genuine moment of personal SALVATION in Christ in this World, God ANOINTED you with the PRESENCE (WISDOM) of the invisible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is to empower and enable you WALK in divine original PURITY for you as ordained by GOD for you in Christ in this World, which is as JESUS CHRIST walked in divine purity for Him in this World, when He was physically here on Earth. (Romans 8:1-14; 1 Peter 1:14-19).
Remember, ...as He (JESUS CHRIST) is, so are we (you and I) in this World. (1 John 4:17).
Furthermore, God ANOINTING you with the PRESENCE (WISDOM) of the invisible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) at your genuine moment of personal SALVATION in Christ in this World, is to empower and enable you TRANSFORM your LIFE to that of JESUS CHRIST in this World by helping you RENEWING your MIND with the WORD of GOD daily. (Romans 12:1,2).
Very importantly, to help you to KNOW convincingly, what is the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD in Christ for you par time and situation in this World, which amongst other things, includes your LIFE PURPOSE of GOD in Christ DISCOVERY in this World. True! Halleluyah! (1 Corinthians 2:9-16; Ephesians 2:10).
That is why Apostle John reveals thus:
But the ANOINTING which you have RECEIVED of Him abides IN you and you need not that any man TEACH you. But as the same ANOINTING teaches you of ALL things and is TRUTH and is no lie and even as it has taught you, you shall abide in him. (1 John 2:27; John 16:13-15; 1 John 4:1-4).
However, that is phase one. In phase two, GOD most times and cases will allow you to go through some period and level of preparation and MATURITY by studying His Word, suffering and chastisement to grow and develop CHRIST-LIKE CHARACTER in you first, before He will ANOINT you with the POWER of the invisible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is to empower and enable you WORK in divine original PURPOSE for you as ordained by GOD for you in Christ in this World, which is as JESUS CHRIST worked in divine purpose for Him in this World, when He was physically here on Earth. (John 4:31-34; John 9:4,5; John 17:1-5).
Again, remember, ...as He (JESUS CHRIST) is, so are we in this World. (1 John 4:17).
God ANOINTING you with the invisible POWER of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) at your genuine moment of Personal PENTECOST in Christ in this World, is to empower and enable you perform miracles, signs and wonders in the name of JESUS CHRIST as a genuine witness of JESUS CHRIST in this World and very importantly to help your LIFE PURPOSE of GOD in Christ DELIVERY (fulfillment) in this World to the benefit of humanity for the glory of God. True! Halleluyah! (Mark 10:14-20; Acts 1:8; Acts 2; Matthew 5:13-16).
Do you get it?
Until you are ANOINTED:
1. With the WISDOM of the invisible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in this World (by being genuinely born-again and letting the Word of God to renew your mind and lifestyle) as He (JESUS CHRIST) went through in this World, you will be falling SHORT of His risen GLORY, which is supposed to be IN you in Him (Christ) in this World and
2. With the POWER of the invisible spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in this World (by allowing God grow and mature you through His Word and suffering) as He (JESUS CHRIST) went through in this World, you will be falling SHORT of His risen GLORY, which is supposed to be UPON you in Him (Christ) in this World and
You will not be able:
1. To ENJOY God's BEST for you in Christ in this World. True!
2. To GIVE God's BEST through you in Christ (to other people) in this World. True!
(Romans 3:23; Isaiah 60; Ephesians 1:3,4; 1 Peter 1:1-4; 2 Corinthians 12:5-10; Hebrews 5:8,9).
Don't SHORTCHANGE yourself in Christ in this World! No, don't!
Therefore, make conscious and consistent biblically efforts against ALL odds of the Devil against you to be ALL God wants you be in Christ in this World and YOU and humanity will be good, better and BEST for it! Yes, you will! (1 Peter 5:6-10).
God bless you.

LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (10)!
LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (10)!
Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you,is within YOU as a divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (to give you assuring HOPE, which you can anchor on) as you journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES in Christ in this World. Read write-up (9) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU to carry out a divine COMMISSION (of reconciling and restoring sin-driven and spiritually condemned individuals back to GOD) through CHRIST in this World. True!
So, it is sad to observe that lots of genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World do not know and have no understanding that on the day of their genuine salvation, when the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) came into them, they were automatically and divinely COMMISSIONED (authorised) by GOD in Christ in this World to RECONCILE and RESTORE their fellow human beings (family members, neighbours, friends, colleagues, business associates and partners, etc) back to GOD through Jesus Christ in this World. So sad!
Even more sad, is the fact that many genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World are ignorant of the truth that in the sight and side of GOD, this is a compulsory, critical and urgent RESPONSIBILITY given to them (by God) in Christ in this World.
They take their COMMISSIONING (authorisation) by GOD to RECONCILE and RESTORE their fellow human beings (family members, neighbours, friends, colleagues, business associates and partners, etc) back to HIM (God) through Jesus Christ in this World for GRANTED or treat with LEVITY But this is not so in the sight and side of God. Take note, take heed!
JESUS CHRIST reveals thus by a parable, how important winning a SINNER back to GOD is in Heaven:
Then drew near unto Him all the PUBLICANS and SINNERS for to hear Him.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, this man receives sinners and eats with them.
And he spoke this parable unto them, saying,
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, REJOICE with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
I say unto you, that likewise JOY shall be in HEAVEN over ONE SINNER that REPENTS, more than over ninety and nine JUST PERSONS, which need no repentance.
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a candle and sweep the house and seek diligently till she find it?
And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbours together, saying, REJOICE with me. For I have found the piece which I had lost.
Likewise, I say unto you, there is JOY in the presence of the angels of God over ONE SINNER that REPENTS. (Luke 15:1-10).
JESUS CHRIST therefore declares that:
He (or she) that is NOT with Me is against Me. And he (or she) that gathers NOT with Me scatters abroad. (Matthew 12:30).
Are you consciously and consistently GATHERING with JESUS CHRIST, precious and priceless Souls of Sinners back to GOD with the help of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you by the way and manner you think, speak and live among them in Christ in this World? Are you? (Mark 8:36,37).
Or you are consciously or unconsciously SCATTERING with SATAN, precious and priceless Souls of Sinners from GOD by the way and manner you think, speak and live among them in Christ in this World? Are you?
Remember, you and I in Christ in this World are the divine SALTS and LIGHTS of the World by the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within us, as He is when He was in this World physically. True! (Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5; 1 John 4:17).
Without US, the genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World, the World in the sight and side of GOD is completely SALTLESS and in total DARKNESS. True! (Isaiah 60:1,2).
You and I in Christ in this World are the only real and true SALTS and LIGHTS, God is tasting and seeing in this World and that is why, the World is still PRESERVED and KEPT going by GOD. True! (1 Peter 2:9,10; 1 John 2:15-17).
Think about it, because when GOD choose and called you and I in Christ out of the World, the Bible reveals He had this in Mind:
Therefore if any man (or woman) be in CHRIST, he (or she) is a NEW creature. Old things are passed away. Behold, ALL things are become NEW.
And ALL things are of GOD, who has RECONCILED us to HIMSELF by JESUS CHRIST and has GIVEN to US (you and I in Christ in this World) the MINISTRY of RECONCILIATION.
To wit, that GOD was in CHRIST, RECONCILING the WORLD unto HIMSELF, not imputing their trespasses unto them. And has COMMITTED unto US the WORD of RECONCILIATION.
Now then WE (you and I in Christ in this World) are AMBASSADORS for CHRIST, as though GOD did beseech you by us. We pray you in Christ's stead, be you RECONCILED to GOD.
For He (God) hath made Him (Jesus Chris) to be SIN for US, who knew no sin. That we might be made the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD in Him (Jesus Christ). (2 Corinthians 5: 17-21; Galatians 2:20).
Do you get it?
JESUS CHRIST confirms this when He says thus:
You have NOT chosen Me, but I have CHOSEN you and ORDAINED you, that you should GO and BRING forth fruit (souls of sinners) and that your fruit should remain. That whatsoever you shall ASK of the Father in my name, He may GIVE it you. (John 15:16).
Therefore, when He (JESUS CHRIST) met with His disciples after His resurrection from the grave, He COMMISSION them (and you and I as well) thus:
Afterward He appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat and upbraided them with their unbelief and HARDNESS of HEART, because they believed not them which had seen Him after He was risen.
And He said unto them, Go you into ALL the WORLD and PREACH the GOSPEL to EVERY creature.
He (or she) that BELIEVES and is BAPTIZED shall be saved. But he (or she) that believes not shall be damned.
And these signs shall follow them (you and I in Him in this World) that believe. In My NAME shall they cast out devils. They shall speak with new tongues.
They shall take up serpents. And if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up into Heaven and sat on the right hand of God.
And they WENT forth and PREACHED everywhere, the LORD WORKING with THEM and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. (Mark 16:14-20; Matthew 28:16-20).
Like I stated earlier, this is the same or true for you and I in Him (Christ) today in this World as true and genuine DISCIPLES of JESUS CHRIST in this World. True!
Why did JESUS Christ COMMISSIONED (authorised) them and us to PREACH the GOSPEL, so as to get SINNERS back to GOD in Him in this World?
Apostle Paul reveals thus, WHY:
For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST. For it is the POWER of GOD unto SALVATION to every one that BELIEVES to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD revealed from faith to faith. As it is written, the just shall live by faith. (Romans 1:16,17; Romans 10).
Are you ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Are you ASHAMED of CHRIST in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Are you so ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST and CHRIST Himself in this World, to an extent of DENYING Him or not CONFESSING Him before men and women in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Or Are you so AFRAID of people and that is why you are ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST and CHRIST Himself in this World, to an extent of DENYING Him or not CONFESSING Him before men and women in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Then hear what JESUS CHRIST Himself is saying to you, who is either AFRAID or ASHAMED of Him before men and women of this World:
Behold, I SEND you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be you therefore WISE as serpents and HARMLESS as doves.
But BEWARE of men (and women). For they will DELIVER you up to the councils and they will SCOURGE you in their synagogues.
And you shall be BROUGHT before governors and kings for My SAKE, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
But when they DELIVER you up, take no thought how or what you shall speak. For it shall be GIVEN you in that same hour what you shall speak.
For it is NOT you that speak, but the SPIRIT of your Father which speaks IN you.
And the brother shall DELIVER up the brother to death and the father the child. And the children shall rise up against their parents and cause them to be put to death.
And you shall be HATED of ALL men (and women) for My name's SAKE. But he (or she) that ENDURE to the END shall be SAVED.
But when they PERSECUTE you in this city, flee you into another. For verily I say unto you, you shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.
The disciple is NOT above his Master, nor the servant above his Lord.
It is enough for the disciple that he be AS his Master and the servant AS his Lord. If they have called the Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?
Fear them NOT therefore. For there is nothing covered, that shall NOT be revealed. And hid, that shall not be known.
What I TELL you in darkness (secret), that speak you in light (open). And what you hear in the ear, that preach you upon the housetops.
And FEAR NOT them which KILL the BODY, but are NOT able to KILL the SOUL. But rather FEAR Him which is able to DESTROY both SOUL and BODY in Hell.
Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? And one of them shall NOT fall on the ground WITHOUT your Father.
But the very HAIRS of your HEAD are ALL numbered.
FEAR you NOT therefore, YOU are of MORE value than many sparrows.
Whosoever therefore shall CONFESS Me before men (and women), Him will I CONFESS also before My Father which is in Heaven.
But whosoever shall DENY Me before men, Him will I also DENY before My Father which is in Heaven.
Think NOT that I am COME to send PEACE on Earth. I came not to send peace, but a SWORD.
For I am COME to SET a man at variance against his father and the daughter against her mother and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
And a man's (or woman's) foes (ENEMIES) shall be they of his (or her) OWN household.
He (or she) that LOVES father or mother more than Me is NOT worthy of Me. And he (or she) that LOVES son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
And he (or she) that TAKES not his (or her) CROSS (specific and unique suffering in Christ in this World) and FOLLOWS after Me, is NOT worthy of Me.
He (or she) that FINDS his (or her) life shall LOSE it. And he (or she) that LOSES his (or her) life for My SAKE shall FIND it. (Matthew 10:16-39; Mark 8:34-38; 1 John 4:17; Ephesians 5:15-18).
Everyone of us chosen, called and saved by GOD through Christ in this World (that is, everyone us carrying the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT within us) has:
1. A specific and unique CROSS of CHRIST to CARRY in deciding to follow and confess CHRIST JESUS in this World.
2. A specific and unique PRICE to PAY for following and confessing CHRIST JESUS in this World.
3. A specific and unique SUFFERING to encounter and experience in Christ in this World before receiving a corresponding GLORY (PRIZE) on Earth now and in Heaven someday. True! Halleluyah!
The Bible reveals thus:
But you are NOT in the flesh (natural), but in the Spirit (supernatural), if so be that the SPIRIT of GOD dwell in you. Now if any man (or woman) have NOT the SPIRIT of CHRIST he (or she) is none of His.
For as many as are LED by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the Sons (or daugthers) of God.
For you have NOT received the spirit of bondage again to fear. But you have received the SPIRIT of ADOPTION, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
The SPIRIT Himself BEARS witness with our spirit, that we are the CHILDREN of GOD.
And if children, then heirs. HEIRS of GOD, and joint-heirs WITH Christ. If so be that we SUFFER with Him, that we may be also GLORIFIED together.
For I reckon that the SUFFERINGS of this present time are not worthy to be COMPARED with the GLORY which shall be revealed in us. (Romans 8:9,14-28; Hebrews 12:1-3; Philippians 3:10; 2 Timothy. 4:5-8; Luke 18:18-30).
Therefore, your CROSS is the price you must pay or suffering you must under go as ordained or permitted by GOD for you to encounter and experience on Earth for following and confessing JESUS CHRIST in this World. True!
So, take note and take heed. It might just be that you are consciously and unconsciously not CONFESSING Jesus Christ (or DENYING Him) before men and women because of the price you will have to pay or suffering you will have to go through for doing so is the reason:
1. Why your PRAYERS are not be ANSWERED in Christ in this World. (John 15:16-27).
Because as revealed by the scripture passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST might just as well be denying YOU before the Father in Heaven. True, but prayerfully find out and repent if need be!
2. Why are ALL things not WORKING together for your GOOD as it should be in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:28-30).
Because as revealed by the scripture passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST might just as well be denying YOU before the Father in Heaven. True, but prayerfully find out and repent if need be!
3. Why your ENEMIES are having UP HANDS against you in Christ in this World. (Ephesians 6:10-18).
Because as revealed by the scripture passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST might just as well be denying YOU before the Father in Heaven. True, but prayerfully find out and repent if need be!
The Bible reveals that:
HUMBLE yourselves therefore under the mighty HAND of GOD, that He may EXALT you in due time.
CASTING all your care upon Him. For He cares for you.
Be SOBER, be VIGILANT. Because your ADVERSARY the DEVIL, as a roaring lion, walks about, SEEKING whom he may devour.
Whom RESIST steadfast in the FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
But the God of ALL grace, who has CALLED us unto His eternal GLORY by Christ Jesus, after that you have SUFFERED a while, will:
1. Perfect you,
2. Establish you,
3. Strengthen you,
4. Settle you.
(1 Peter 5:6-10; 1 Corinthians 12:5-10).
Do you get it?
As you RESIST Satan and STAND steadfastly in FAITH on the Words, Ways and Wills of GOD in Christ for you in this World, God will perfect you, establish you, strengthen and SETTLE you at last.
You will LAUGH last for SUFFERING for Christ's SAKE for a while in this World. All things will work together for your GOOD at last because GOD is able, willing and faithful to His Word and His Own in Christ in this World. True! (Romans 8:28-39; 2 Corinthians 4:8-18).
Now, a very important and critical point to note and to heed to after all I have said above, is that JESUS CHRIST instructed His disciples to WAIT for another dimension of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) to come UPON them before embarking on their journey into the WORLD as witnesses for Him to evangelise the WORLD.
The Bible reveals thus:
And, being assembled together with them, COMMANDED them that they should NOT depart from Jerusalem, but WAIT for the PROMISE of the Father, which you have heard of Me.
For John truly BAPTIZED with WATER. But you shall be BAPTIZED with the HOLY GHOST not many days hence.
When they therefore were come together, they asked of Him, saying, Lord, will you at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in His own power.
But you shall RECEIVE power, after that the HOLY GHOST is come UPON you. And you shall be WITNESSES unto ME both in Jerusalem and in ALL Judaea and in Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth. (Acts 1:4-8).
JESUS CHRIST told them (as He is telling us today) to WAIT until He comes spiritually and supernaturally as the HOLY SPIRIT upon them in a BAPTISMAL measure.
This is because while the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) IN us COMMISSIONS (confirms and authorises) us to RECONCILE and RESTORE individuals back to GOD, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) UPON us (in a baptismal measure) EMPOWERS us to carry out the COMMISSION of RECONCILING and RESTORING individuals back to GOD with authority and power with miracles and signs following us. (Mark 16:14-20; Acts 1:8; Acts 2).
The Bible reveals thus:
Arise, SHINE. For your LIGHT is COME and the GLORY of the LORD is risen UPON you.
For, behold, the DARKNESS shall cover the EARTH and GROSS DARKNESS the PEOPLE. But the LORD shall arise UPON you and His GLORY shall be seen UPON you.
And the GENTILES shall COME to your LIGHT and KINGS to the BRIGHTNESS of your RISING... (Isaiah 60; John 1:1-14; Romans 3:23).
It is only when we patiently wait for the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) to come UPON us that we can realky and truly SHINE as divine LIGHT (of good works) in Christ in the World and SINNERS will be supernaturally compel to genuinely come to our LIGHT (of good works) in Christ and GLORIFY our Father in Heaven. True! (Matthew 5:14-16; John 9:4,5).
This is where the BODY of CHRIST in this generation is missing it. We send believers on daily basic into the World as witnesses of JESUS CHRIST, who have ONLY received the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within them and not UPON them in a BAPTISMAL measure. This is not biblically correct. True!
This is one of the real and critical reasons as a divine COMMISSION for today's generation of Christians, the impact of Christian EVANGELISM in Christ in this World is so POWERLESS and proof not to be so spiritually and physucally PROFITABLE to the World as it should be. That is, as JESUS CHRIST Himself and His early disciples did in power and authority impacting the World positively and profitably for Jesus Christ as His able and exemplary witnesses and representatives in the World. Halleluyah! (Acts 1:5-8; Acts 1-5).
The Body of Christ needs to urgently get back to base on this matter because of EVANGELISM in the World critical place in the whole divine scheme of things in CHRIST in this World. True!
GOD wants you and I to be spiritually and physically EQUIPPED and EMPOWERED for the great COMMISSION of EVANGELISING (reconciling and restoring back individuals to Him) the World for Him through Christ in this World because:
1. The World is a WICKED place that only the powerful in Him can operate within it vvictoriously and successfully. (1John 5:19).
2. The World will only respond to His power through us. (Psalm 110:3).
3. The World is waiting for the manifestation of the SONS and DAUGHTERS of GOD, not sons and daughters of men. The former has the POWER of GOD within and upon them, the latter lacks it. (John 1:12,13; Romans 8:14-19).
4. Aand many more.
Do you get it?
Now, let me leave you with this:
1. It is a WISE thing to win SOULS back to GOD through Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life. And he (or she) that WINS souls is WISE.
Behold, the RIGHTEOUS shall be RECOMPENSED in the earth. Much more the wicked and the sinner. (Proverbs 11:30,31).
2. Winning souls back to God through Christ makes you SHINE as a STAR before GOD forever.
The Bible reveals thus:
And they that be WISE shall SHINE as the brightness of the firmament. And they that TURN many to righteousness as the STARS for ever and ever. (Daniel 12:3).
Why is it so?
The Bible reveals thus:
Brethren, if any of you do err from the TRUTH and one COVERT him (or her).
Let him (or her) know, that he (or her) which COVERTS the SINNER from the error of his (or her) way shall SAVE a SOUL from DEATH and shall HIDE a multitude of SINS. (James 5:19,20).
GOD calling to BRING men and women BACK to Him through CHRIST is not for Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers alone, but for EVERYONE who has the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within him or her in Christ in this World. True!
When last did you consciously WIN or ENCOURAGE someone for GOD in Christ in this World?
Think about it!
God bless you.

Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you,is within YOU as a divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (to give you assuring HOPE, which you can anchor on) as you journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES in Christ in this World. Read write-up (9) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU to carry out a divine COMMISSION (of reconciling and restoring sin-driven and spiritually condemned individuals back to GOD) through CHRIST in this World. True!
So, it is sad to observe that lots of genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World do not know and have no understanding that on the day of their genuine salvation, when the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) came into them, they were automatically and divinely COMMISSIONED (authorised) by GOD in Christ in this World to RECONCILE and RESTORE their fellow human beings (family members, neighbours, friends, colleagues, business associates and partners, etc) back to GOD through Jesus Christ in this World. So sad!
Even more sad, is the fact that many genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World are ignorant of the truth that in the sight and side of GOD, this is a compulsory, critical and urgent RESPONSIBILITY given to them (by God) in Christ in this World.
They take their COMMISSIONING (authorisation) by GOD to RECONCILE and RESTORE their fellow human beings (family members, neighbours, friends, colleagues, business associates and partners, etc) back to HIM (God) through Jesus Christ in this World for GRANTED or treat with LEVITY But this is not so in the sight and side of God. Take note, take heed!
JESUS CHRIST reveals thus by a parable, how important winning a SINNER back to GOD is in Heaven:
Then drew near unto Him all the PUBLICANS and SINNERS for to hear Him.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, this man receives sinners and eats with them.
And he spoke this parable unto them, saying,
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, REJOICE with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
I say unto you, that likewise JOY shall be in HEAVEN over ONE SINNER that REPENTS, more than over ninety and nine JUST PERSONS, which need no repentance.
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a candle and sweep the house and seek diligently till she find it?
And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbours together, saying, REJOICE with me. For I have found the piece which I had lost.
Likewise, I say unto you, there is JOY in the presence of the angels of God over ONE SINNER that REPENTS. (Luke 15:1-10).
JESUS CHRIST therefore declares that:
He (or she) that is NOT with Me is against Me. And he (or she) that gathers NOT with Me scatters abroad. (Matthew 12:30).
Are you consciously and consistently GATHERING with JESUS CHRIST, precious and priceless Souls of Sinners back to GOD with the help of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you by the way and manner you think, speak and live among them in Christ in this World? Are you? (Mark 8:36,37).
Or you are consciously or unconsciously SCATTERING with SATAN, precious and priceless Souls of Sinners from GOD by the way and manner you think, speak and live among them in Christ in this World? Are you?
Remember, you and I in Christ in this World are the divine SALTS and LIGHTS of the World by the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within us, as He is when He was in this World physically. True! (Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5; 1 John 4:17).
Without US, the genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World, the World in the sight and side of GOD is completely SALTLESS and in total DARKNESS. True! (Isaiah 60:1,2).
You and I in Christ in this World are the only real and true SALTS and LIGHTS, God is tasting and seeing in this World and that is why, the World is still PRESERVED and KEPT going by GOD. True! (1 Peter 2:9,10; 1 John 2:15-17).
Think about it, because when GOD choose and called you and I in Christ out of the World, the Bible reveals He had this in Mind:
Therefore if any man (or woman) be in CHRIST, he (or she) is a NEW creature. Old things are passed away. Behold, ALL things are become NEW.
And ALL things are of GOD, who has RECONCILED us to HIMSELF by JESUS CHRIST and has GIVEN to US (you and I in Christ in this World) the MINISTRY of RECONCILIATION.
To wit, that GOD was in CHRIST, RECONCILING the WORLD unto HIMSELF, not imputing their trespasses unto them. And has COMMITTED unto US the WORD of RECONCILIATION.
Now then WE (you and I in Christ in this World) are AMBASSADORS for CHRIST, as though GOD did beseech you by us. We pray you in Christ's stead, be you RECONCILED to GOD.
For He (God) hath made Him (Jesus Chris) to be SIN for US, who knew no sin. That we might be made the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD in Him (Jesus Christ). (2 Corinthians 5: 17-21; Galatians 2:20).
Do you get it?
JESUS CHRIST confirms this when He says thus:
You have NOT chosen Me, but I have CHOSEN you and ORDAINED you, that you should GO and BRING forth fruit (souls of sinners) and that your fruit should remain. That whatsoever you shall ASK of the Father in my name, He may GIVE it you. (John 15:16).
Therefore, when He (JESUS CHRIST) met with His disciples after His resurrection from the grave, He COMMISSION them (and you and I as well) thus:
Afterward He appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat and upbraided them with their unbelief and HARDNESS of HEART, because they believed not them which had seen Him after He was risen.
And He said unto them, Go you into ALL the WORLD and PREACH the GOSPEL to EVERY creature.
He (or she) that BELIEVES and is BAPTIZED shall be saved. But he (or she) that believes not shall be damned.
And these signs shall follow them (you and I in Him in this World) that believe. In My NAME shall they cast out devils. They shall speak with new tongues.
They shall take up serpents. And if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, He was received up into Heaven and sat on the right hand of God.
And they WENT forth and PREACHED everywhere, the LORD WORKING with THEM and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. (Mark 16:14-20; Matthew 28:16-20).
Like I stated earlier, this is the same or true for you and I in Him (Christ) today in this World as true and genuine DISCIPLES of JESUS CHRIST in this World. True!
Why did JESUS Christ COMMISSIONED (authorised) them and us to PREACH the GOSPEL, so as to get SINNERS back to GOD in Him in this World?
Apostle Paul reveals thus, WHY:
For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST. For it is the POWER of GOD unto SALVATION to every one that BELIEVES to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD revealed from faith to faith. As it is written, the just shall live by faith. (Romans 1:16,17; Romans 10).
Are you ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Are you ASHAMED of CHRIST in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Are you so ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST and CHRIST Himself in this World, to an extent of DENYING Him or not CONFESSING Him before men and women in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Or Are you so AFRAID of people and that is why you are ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST and CHRIST Himself in this World, to an extent of DENYING Him or not CONFESSING Him before men and women in this World, even though you are genuinely born-again?
Then hear what JESUS CHRIST Himself is saying to you, who is either AFRAID or ASHAMED of Him before men and women of this World:
Behold, I SEND you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be you therefore WISE as serpents and HARMLESS as doves.
But BEWARE of men (and women). For they will DELIVER you up to the councils and they will SCOURGE you in their synagogues.
And you shall be BROUGHT before governors and kings for My SAKE, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
But when they DELIVER you up, take no thought how or what you shall speak. For it shall be GIVEN you in that same hour what you shall speak.
For it is NOT you that speak, but the SPIRIT of your Father which speaks IN you.
And the brother shall DELIVER up the brother to death and the father the child. And the children shall rise up against their parents and cause them to be put to death.
And you shall be HATED of ALL men (and women) for My name's SAKE. But he (or she) that ENDURE to the END shall be SAVED.
But when they PERSECUTE you in this city, flee you into another. For verily I say unto you, you shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.
The disciple is NOT above his Master, nor the servant above his Lord.
It is enough for the disciple that he be AS his Master and the servant AS his Lord. If they have called the Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?
Fear them NOT therefore. For there is nothing covered, that shall NOT be revealed. And hid, that shall not be known.
What I TELL you in darkness (secret), that speak you in light (open). And what you hear in the ear, that preach you upon the housetops.
And FEAR NOT them which KILL the BODY, but are NOT able to KILL the SOUL. But rather FEAR Him which is able to DESTROY both SOUL and BODY in Hell.
Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? And one of them shall NOT fall on the ground WITHOUT your Father.
But the very HAIRS of your HEAD are ALL numbered.
FEAR you NOT therefore, YOU are of MORE value than many sparrows.
Whosoever therefore shall CONFESS Me before men (and women), Him will I CONFESS also before My Father which is in Heaven.
But whosoever shall DENY Me before men, Him will I also DENY before My Father which is in Heaven.
Think NOT that I am COME to send PEACE on Earth. I came not to send peace, but a SWORD.
For I am COME to SET a man at variance against his father and the daughter against her mother and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
And a man's (or woman's) foes (ENEMIES) shall be they of his (or her) OWN household.
He (or she) that LOVES father or mother more than Me is NOT worthy of Me. And he (or she) that LOVES son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
And he (or she) that TAKES not his (or her) CROSS (specific and unique suffering in Christ in this World) and FOLLOWS after Me, is NOT worthy of Me.
He (or she) that FINDS his (or her) life shall LOSE it. And he (or she) that LOSES his (or her) life for My SAKE shall FIND it. (Matthew 10:16-39; Mark 8:34-38; 1 John 4:17; Ephesians 5:15-18).
Everyone of us chosen, called and saved by GOD through Christ in this World (that is, everyone us carrying the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT within us) has:
1. A specific and unique CROSS of CHRIST to CARRY in deciding to follow and confess CHRIST JESUS in this World.
2. A specific and unique PRICE to PAY for following and confessing CHRIST JESUS in this World.
3. A specific and unique SUFFERING to encounter and experience in Christ in this World before receiving a corresponding GLORY (PRIZE) on Earth now and in Heaven someday. True! Halleluyah!
The Bible reveals thus:
But you are NOT in the flesh (natural), but in the Spirit (supernatural), if so be that the SPIRIT of GOD dwell in you. Now if any man (or woman) have NOT the SPIRIT of CHRIST he (or she) is none of His.
For as many as are LED by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the Sons (or daugthers) of God.
For you have NOT received the spirit of bondage again to fear. But you have received the SPIRIT of ADOPTION, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
The SPIRIT Himself BEARS witness with our spirit, that we are the CHILDREN of GOD.
And if children, then heirs. HEIRS of GOD, and joint-heirs WITH Christ. If so be that we SUFFER with Him, that we may be also GLORIFIED together.
For I reckon that the SUFFERINGS of this present time are not worthy to be COMPARED with the GLORY which shall be revealed in us. (Romans 8:9,14-28; Hebrews 12:1-3; Philippians 3:10; 2 Timothy. 4:5-8; Luke 18:18-30).
Therefore, your CROSS is the price you must pay or suffering you must under go as ordained or permitted by GOD for you to encounter and experience on Earth for following and confessing JESUS CHRIST in this World. True!
So, take note and take heed. It might just be that you are consciously and unconsciously not CONFESSING Jesus Christ (or DENYING Him) before men and women because of the price you will have to pay or suffering you will have to go through for doing so is the reason:
1. Why your PRAYERS are not be ANSWERED in Christ in this World. (John 15:16-27).
Because as revealed by the scripture passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST might just as well be denying YOU before the Father in Heaven. True, but prayerfully find out and repent if need be!
2. Why are ALL things not WORKING together for your GOOD as it should be in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:28-30).
Because as revealed by the scripture passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST might just as well be denying YOU before the Father in Heaven. True, but prayerfully find out and repent if need be!
3. Why your ENEMIES are having UP HANDS against you in Christ in this World. (Ephesians 6:10-18).
Because as revealed by the scripture passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST might just as well be denying YOU before the Father in Heaven. True, but prayerfully find out and repent if need be!
The Bible reveals that:
HUMBLE yourselves therefore under the mighty HAND of GOD, that He may EXALT you in due time.
CASTING all your care upon Him. For He cares for you.
Be SOBER, be VIGILANT. Because your ADVERSARY the DEVIL, as a roaring lion, walks about, SEEKING whom he may devour.
Whom RESIST steadfast in the FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
But the God of ALL grace, who has CALLED us unto His eternal GLORY by Christ Jesus, after that you have SUFFERED a while, will:
1. Perfect you,
2. Establish you,
3. Strengthen you,
4. Settle you.
(1 Peter 5:6-10; 1 Corinthians 12:5-10).
Do you get it?
As you RESIST Satan and STAND steadfastly in FAITH on the Words, Ways and Wills of GOD in Christ for you in this World, God will perfect you, establish you, strengthen and SETTLE you at last.
You will LAUGH last for SUFFERING for Christ's SAKE for a while in this World. All things will work together for your GOOD at last because GOD is able, willing and faithful to His Word and His Own in Christ in this World. True! (Romans 8:28-39; 2 Corinthians 4:8-18).
Now, a very important and critical point to note and to heed to after all I have said above, is that JESUS CHRIST instructed His disciples to WAIT for another dimension of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) to come UPON them before embarking on their journey into the WORLD as witnesses for Him to evangelise the WORLD.
The Bible reveals thus:
And, being assembled together with them, COMMANDED them that they should NOT depart from Jerusalem, but WAIT for the PROMISE of the Father, which you have heard of Me.
For John truly BAPTIZED with WATER. But you shall be BAPTIZED with the HOLY GHOST not many days hence.
When they therefore were come together, they asked of Him, saying, Lord, will you at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in His own power.
But you shall RECEIVE power, after that the HOLY GHOST is come UPON you. And you shall be WITNESSES unto ME both in Jerusalem and in ALL Judaea and in Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth. (Acts 1:4-8).
JESUS CHRIST told them (as He is telling us today) to WAIT until He comes spiritually and supernaturally as the HOLY SPIRIT upon them in a BAPTISMAL measure.
This is because while the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) IN us COMMISSIONS (confirms and authorises) us to RECONCILE and RESTORE individuals back to GOD, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) UPON us (in a baptismal measure) EMPOWERS us to carry out the COMMISSION of RECONCILING and RESTORING individuals back to GOD with authority and power with miracles and signs following us. (Mark 16:14-20; Acts 1:8; Acts 2).
The Bible reveals thus:
Arise, SHINE. For your LIGHT is COME and the GLORY of the LORD is risen UPON you.
For, behold, the DARKNESS shall cover the EARTH and GROSS DARKNESS the PEOPLE. But the LORD shall arise UPON you and His GLORY shall be seen UPON you.
And the GENTILES shall COME to your LIGHT and KINGS to the BRIGHTNESS of your RISING... (Isaiah 60; John 1:1-14; Romans 3:23).
It is only when we patiently wait for the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) to come UPON us that we can realky and truly SHINE as divine LIGHT (of good works) in Christ in the World and SINNERS will be supernaturally compel to genuinely come to our LIGHT (of good works) in Christ and GLORIFY our Father in Heaven. True! (Matthew 5:14-16; John 9:4,5).
This is where the BODY of CHRIST in this generation is missing it. We send believers on daily basic into the World as witnesses of JESUS CHRIST, who have ONLY received the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within them and not UPON them in a BAPTISMAL measure. This is not biblically correct. True!
This is one of the real and critical reasons as a divine COMMISSION for today's generation of Christians, the impact of Christian EVANGELISM in Christ in this World is so POWERLESS and proof not to be so spiritually and physucally PROFITABLE to the World as it should be. That is, as JESUS CHRIST Himself and His early disciples did in power and authority impacting the World positively and profitably for Jesus Christ as His able and exemplary witnesses and representatives in the World. Halleluyah! (Acts 1:5-8; Acts 1-5).
The Body of Christ needs to urgently get back to base on this matter because of EVANGELISM in the World critical place in the whole divine scheme of things in CHRIST in this World. True!
GOD wants you and I to be spiritually and physically EQUIPPED and EMPOWERED for the great COMMISSION of EVANGELISING (reconciling and restoring back individuals to Him) the World for Him through Christ in this World because:
1. The World is a WICKED place that only the powerful in Him can operate within it vvictoriously and successfully. (1John 5:19).
2. The World will only respond to His power through us. (Psalm 110:3).
3. The World is waiting for the manifestation of the SONS and DAUGHTERS of GOD, not sons and daughters of men. The former has the POWER of GOD within and upon them, the latter lacks it. (John 1:12,13; Romans 8:14-19).
4. Aand many more.
Do you get it?
Now, let me leave you with this:
1. It is a WISE thing to win SOULS back to GOD through Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life. And he (or she) that WINS souls is WISE.
Behold, the RIGHTEOUS shall be RECOMPENSED in the earth. Much more the wicked and the sinner. (Proverbs 11:30,31).
2. Winning souls back to God through Christ makes you SHINE as a STAR before GOD forever.
The Bible reveals thus:
And they that be WISE shall SHINE as the brightness of the firmament. And they that TURN many to righteousness as the STARS for ever and ever. (Daniel 12:3).
Why is it so?
The Bible reveals thus:
Brethren, if any of you do err from the TRUTH and one COVERT him (or her).
Let him (or her) know, that he (or her) which COVERTS the SINNER from the error of his (or her) way shall SAVE a SOUL from DEATH and shall HIDE a multitude of SINS. (James 5:19,20).
GOD calling to BRING men and women BACK to Him through CHRIST is not for Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers alone, but for EVERYONE who has the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within him or her in Christ in this World. True!
When last did you consciously WIN or ENCOURAGE someone for GOD in Christ in this World?
Think about it!
God bless you.

TAKE NOTE, TAKE HEED!
TAKE NOTE, TAKE HEED!
Love NOT the WORLD, neither the THINGS that are in the WORLD. If any man (or woman) LOVE the WORLD, the LOVE of the FATHER is not in him (or her).
For ALL that is in the WORLD, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is NOT of the FATHER, but is of the WORLD.
And the World PASSES away and the LUST thereof. But he (or she) that DOES the WILL of GOD abides for ever. (1 John 2:15-17; James 1:12-15; James 4:1-5)
We brought nothing into this WORLD and it is certain we will leave also one day with nothing. True! (1 Timothy 6:6-12).

LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (9)!
LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (9)!
Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, is within YOU to divinely COMFORT you (to give you perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in your TIME of TROUBLE as you journey from Earth to Heaven in Christ in this World. Read write-up (8) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU as a divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (to give you assuring HOPE, which you can anchor on) as you journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES in Christ in this World. True!
The Bible reveals that:
That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE inherit the PROMISES.
For when GOD made PROMISE to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself,
Saying, surely BLESSING I will bless you and multiplying I will multiply you.
And so, after he had PATIENTLY endured, he obtained the PROMISE.
For men verily swear by the greater. And an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
Wherein GOD, willing more abundantly to show unto the HEIRS of PROMISE the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath.
That by two immutable things, in which it was IMPOSSIBLE for GOD to LIE, we might have a strong CONSOLATION, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the HOPE set before us.
Which HOPE we have as an ANCHOR of the SOUL, both sure and steadfast and which enters into that within the veil.
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even JESUS, made an High Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (Hebrews 6:12-20; Romans 4:16-25).
So, you and I have a strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION in the promise made to our father of faith, Abraham, which is fulfilled in JESUS CHRIST.
Yes, we have assuring HOPE in Christ in this World to anchor on our Soul (life) as we journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES in Christ in this World. True!
The divine promise to Abraham was finally and fully fulfilled in and by the physical CHRIST (called JESUS), when He paid the price that made it possible for the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) to come into and live within humans (that is, those who will believe and receive in Him as their personal Lord and Saviour in this World). True!
The Bible reveals thus:
CHRIST has redeemed us from the CURSE of the LAW, being made a CURSE for US. For it is written, Cursed is every one that hang on a tree.
That the BLESSING of ABRAHAM might come on the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World) through JESUS CHRIST that we might RECEIVE the PROMISE of the SPIRIT through FAITH. (Galatians 3:13,14).
Do you get it?
You receive the PROMISE of the SPIRIT at your genuine salvation moment, when the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) came into YOU to dwell and live through you to carry out God's prefect and specific PLAN and PURPOSE for your life in Christ in this World. Halleluyah! (Ephesians 2:5-10).
The Bible reveals that:
So then they that are IN the FLESH (those having not the SPIRIT of GOD in them) cannot PLEASE God.
But you are not in the flesh, but IN the SPIRIT, if so be that the SPIRIT of GOD dwell in YOU. Now if any man (or woman) have NOT the SPIRIT of CHRIST, he (or she) is none of His.
For as many as are LED by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the SONS of GOD.
For you have NOT received the spirit of bondage again to fear. But you have RECEIVED the SPIRIT of ADOPTION, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
The SPIRIT Himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the CHILDREN of GOD.
And if children, then heirs. HEIRS of GOD and JOINT-HEIRS with CHRIST. If so be that we SUFFER with Him, that we may be also GLORIFIED together.
For I reckon that the SUFFERING of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the GLORY which shall be revealed in us.
For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the MANIFESTATION of the SONS of GOD.
For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of Him who has subjected the same in HOPE,
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the GLORIOUS LIBERTY of the children of God.
For we know that the WHOLE creation GROANS and TRAVAILS in PAIN together until now.
And not only they, but OURSELVES also, which have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves GROAN within ourselves, WAITING for the adoption, to wit, the REDEMPTION of our body.
For we are SAVED by HOPE. But HOPE that is SEEN is not HOPE. For what a man (or a woman) sees, why does he (or she) yet HOPE for?
But if we HOPE for that we see not, then do we with PATIENCE wait for it.
Likewise the SPIRIT also helps our INFIRMITIES. For we know NOT what we should PRAY for as we ought.
But the SPIRIT Himself makes INTERCESSION for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
And He that searches the hearts knows what is the Mind of the Spirit, because He makes INTERCESSION for the SAINTS according to the WILL of GOD.
And we know that ALL things WORK together for GOOD to them that LOVE God, to them who are the called according to His PURPOSE...
(Romans 8:9,15-39; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18; Romans 8:1-13).
So, the strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE), you and I have in Christ in this World as we journey from Earth to Heaven facing unavoidable challenging CIRCUMSTANCES for Christ's sake in this World, is the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living within and through us
in Christ in this World. Hallelujah!
No doubt, in this side of life, every man and woman faces challenging CIRCUMSTANCES that seem HOPELESS most times, but we in Christ, who have the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living within us, is not left HOPELESS by God in this World. That is, without a HOPE to anchor our soul (life) on as we journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES for Christ's sake in this World. True!
The Bible reveals that:
...CHRIST IN YOU (and I), the HOPE of GLORY. (Colossians 1:27).
Apostle Paul by experience says that:
We are TROUBLED on EVERY side, yet NOT distressed. We are PERPLEXED, but NOT in despair.
PERSECUTED, but not forsaken. CAST DOWN, but not destroyed.
ALWAYS bearing about in the BODY the DYING of the LORD JESUS, that the LIFE also of JESUS might be MADE manifest in OUR BODY.
For WE who LIVE are alway DELIVERED unto DEATH for JESUS' sake, that the LIFE also of JESUS might be MADE manifest in our mortal flesh (BODY).
So then death works in us, but life in you.
We having the same SPIRIT of FAITH, according as it is written, I believed and therefore have I spoken. We also believe and therefore speak.
Knowing that He (God) who RAISED up the Lord Jesus shall RAISE up us also by Jesus and shall present us with you.
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
For which cause we FAINT not. But though our OUTWARD (body) man perish, yet the INWARD (spirit) man is renewed day by day.
For our light AFFLICTION, which is but for a moment, WORKS for US a FAR MORE exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
While we LOOK not at the things which are SEEN, but at the things which are NOT SEEN. For the things which are seen are temporal. But the things which are not seen are eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:8-18; 2 Corinthians 12:5-10).
The spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you must be treasured and treated valuable and precious by you in Christ in this World. This is because, He is the divine TREASURE of HOPE living within you and I in Christ in this World, helping us see lights at the end of our dark tunnels in life. That is, when ALL seem HELPLESS and HOPELESS before us because of the challenging CIRCUMSTANCES we are facing in Christ in this World, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within us, teach, guide and help us to HEAR and SEE divine SOLUTIONS on how to either ENDURE, MANAGE or SOLVE them (our challenging CIRCUMSTANCES) in Christ in this world to the glory of God. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
But as it is written, EYE has not seen, nor EAR heard, neither have entered into the HEART of man (humans), the things which GOD has PREPARED for them that LOVE Him.
But GOD has REVEALED them unto us by His SPIRIT. For the SPIRIT searchs ALL things, yes, the DEEP things of GOD.
For what man KNOWS the things of a man, save (except) the SPIRIT of MAN (human) which is in him? Even so the THINGS of GOD knows no man, but the SPIRIT of GOD.
Now we have RECEIVED, not the SPIRIT of the WORLD, but the SPIRIT which is of GOD. That we might KNOW the THINGS that are freely GIVEN to us of GOD.
Which things also we speak, not in the words which MAN'S wisdom teachs, but which the Holy GHOST teaches; COMPARING spiritual things with spiritual.
But the NATURAL man (human who have not the Spirit of Christ wiyhin him or her) receives not the things of the SPIRIT of GOD. For they are FOOLISHNESS unto him (or her). Neither can he (or she) know them, because they are spiritually DISCERNED.
But he (or she) that is spiritual judges ALL things, yet he himself (or she herself) is judged of no man.
For who has known the MIND of the LORD that he (or she) may instruct Him? But we have the MIND of CHRIST. (1 Corinthians 2:9-16)
Note that:
1. The spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in you and I in Christ in this World, is our one and only strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE of GLORY) of reigning as divine KINGS and PRIESTS of GOD in Christ on EARTH now. True! Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:17; Revelation 5:9,10; 1 Peter 2:9,10; Mathew 5:13-16).
The Bible reveals that:
...CHRIST IN YOU (and I), the HOPE of GLORY. (Colossians 1:27).
2. The spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in you and I in Christ in this World, is our one and only strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE of GLORY) of tasting as divine SALTS and shining as divine LIGHTS of GOD in Christ on EARTH now. True! Halleluyah! (Matthew 5:13-16; 1 Peter 2:9,10).
The Bible reveals that:
You are the SALT of the earth. But if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
You are the LIGHT of the WORLD. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick. And it gives light unto all that are in the house.
Let your LIGHT so SHINE before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. (Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5).
3. The spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) in you and I in Christ in this World, is our one and only strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE of GLORY) of reigning as JOINT-HEIRS with Christ in HEAVEN someday. True! Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:27; Ephesians 4:30).
The Bible reveals thus:
For if the dead rise NOT, then is NOT Christ raised.
And if Christ be NOT raised, your FAITH is VAIN You are yet in your sins.
Then they also which are FALLEN asleep in Christ are PERISHED.
If in this life ONLY we have HOPE in CHRIST, we are of all men most MISERABLE.
But NOW is Christ RISEN from the dead and become the first-fruits of them that slept.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam ALL die, even so in Christ shall ALL be made alive.
But every man in his own order. Christ the first-fruits. Afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. (1 Corinthians 15:16-23; Romans 8:15-19).
The spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) is our divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE) within us in Christ on Earth because:
1. He is within us to GUIDE us par time to ALL truth in Christ in this World. (John 16:13-15; Jphn 4:1-4; John 8:32).
2. He is within us to SHOW us things par time that we need to know in Christ concerning us or others in this World. (John 16:13-15; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16).
3. He is within us to HELP us to pray alright par time according to the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD for us or others on Christ in this World. (Romans 8:26-28; 1 John 5:14,15; James 4:1-4).
4. He is within us to LEAD us par time in making the right choices and in taking the right decisions according to the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD for us, which makes us live not under the law, but under grace in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:14; Galatians 5:18; Romans 12:1,2).
5. He is within us to LIVE (through) us par time the character lifestyle (of the FRUITS of the SPIRIT) of Jesus Christ in this World. (Galatians 5:15-26; Romans 8:29,30; 1 John 4:17).
6. He is within us to LIVE (through) us par time the specific and unique plan and purposes of God for each of us, who are spiritually and supernaturally recreated and regenerated by God in Christ Jesus in this World. (Ephesians 2:5-10; John 14:12; Isaiah 61; 1 John 4:17).
7. He is within us to LIVE (through) us par time the competent lifestyle (of the GIFTS of the SPIRIT) of Jesus Christ in this World. (1 Corinthians 12; John 14:13; 1 John 4:17).
8. And many more.
That is why Apostle Paul by practical experience from results of the workings of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is living within and through him, boldly declared thus:
I CAN DO ALL things through CHRIST which STRENGTHENS me. (Philippians 4:13; Galatians 2:20).
Likewise, it is so for us too. True!
Therefore, the Bible counsels you and I:
1. Not to GRIEVE the divine assuring HOPE (the spiritual CHRIST called Holy SPIRIT) within us by deliberating sinning without repentance occasionally.
The Bible reveals thus:
And GRIEVE not the Holy SPIRIT of GOD, whereby you are SEALED unto the DAY of redemption. (Ephesians 4:30).
2. Not to QUENCH the divine assuring HOPE (the spiritual CHRIST called Holy SPIRIT) within us by deliberating sinning without repentance consistently.
The Bible reveals thus:
QUENCH not the SPIRIT. (1 Thessalonians 5:19).
Interestingly, the divine kind of HOPE I am informing you about is grown and developed by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you and I by the TRIBULATION (suffering and sorrow) that GOD has ordained for us and will permits us to individually and uniquely go through in Christ in this World. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
Therefore being JUSTIFIED by FAITH, we have PEACE with GOD through our Lord JESUS Christ.
By whom also we have ACCESS by FAITH into this GRACE wherein we stand and REJOICE in HOPE of the GLORY of GOD.
And not only so, but we GLORY in TRIBULATION also. Knowing that tribulation works PATIENCE.
And patience, EXPERIENCE. And experience, HOPE.
And HOPE makes not ASHAMED. Because the LOVE of GOD is shed abroad in OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. (Romans 5:1-5; Hebrews 6:12).
Note this, without FAITH in GOD in Christ in this World, it is impossible to PLEASE God in Christ in this World. (Hebrews 11:6).
Likewise, without HOPE in GOD in Christ in this World, it is impossible to PLEASE God in Christ in this World.
This is because, HOPE in GOD during our challenging CIRCUMSTANCES or EXPECTATION period sustains our FAITH in GOD enough for us to be able to receive from Him in Christ in this World. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
Now FAITH is the substance of things HOPED for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1).
Therefore, the Bible counsels that we should be:
REJOICING in HOPE. PATIENT in tribulation. Continuing instant in prayer. (Romans 12:12).
Why does the Bible says that you and I should be REJOICING in HOPE?
It is because you and I in Christ in this World have already within us divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE) in Christ in this World by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living within and through us in Christ in this World.
It is because, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within us in Christ in this World is the assuring HOPE we need to be conscious of and to be REJOICING in HOPE that:
1. Our NEEDS according to the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD will be met. (Matthew 6:33; Luke 17:20,21; Philippians 4:19).
2. Our EXPECTATIONS according to the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD will come to pass in due time for us in Christ in this World. (Proverbs 23:18; Jeremiah 11:29; Ecclesiastes 3:1-11).
3. Our challenging CIRCUMSTANCES according to good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD will work out together for good in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:28).
Always remember that no matter or the odds that are against you, as long as you do not grieve or quench the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, ALL things, I mean ALL things, will surely work together for your good in Christ in this World. True! (Romans 8).
Do have a HOPEFUL weekend.
God bless you.

Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, is within YOU to divinely COMFORT you (to give you perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in your TIME of TROUBLE as you journey from Earth to Heaven in Christ in this World. Read write-up (8) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU as a divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (to give you assuring HOPE, which you can anchor on) as you journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES in Christ in this World. True!
The Bible reveals that:
That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE inherit the PROMISES.
For when GOD made PROMISE to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself,
Saying, surely BLESSING I will bless you and multiplying I will multiply you.
And so, after he had PATIENTLY endured, he obtained the PROMISE.
For men verily swear by the greater. And an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
Wherein GOD, willing more abundantly to show unto the HEIRS of PROMISE the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath.
That by two immutable things, in which it was IMPOSSIBLE for GOD to LIE, we might have a strong CONSOLATION, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the HOPE set before us.
Which HOPE we have as an ANCHOR of the SOUL, both sure and steadfast and which enters into that within the veil.
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even JESUS, made an High Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (Hebrews 6:12-20; Romans 4:16-25).
So, you and I have a strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION in the promise made to our father of faith, Abraham, which is fulfilled in JESUS CHRIST.
Yes, we have assuring HOPE in Christ in this World to anchor on our Soul (life) as we journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES in Christ in this World. True!
The divine promise to Abraham was finally and fully fulfilled in and by the physical CHRIST (called JESUS), when He paid the price that made it possible for the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) to come into and live within humans (that is, those who will believe and receive in Him as their personal Lord and Saviour in this World). True!
The Bible reveals thus:
CHRIST has redeemed us from the CURSE of the LAW, being made a CURSE for US. For it is written, Cursed is every one that hang on a tree.
That the BLESSING of ABRAHAM might come on the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World) through JESUS CHRIST that we might RECEIVE the PROMISE of the SPIRIT through FAITH. (Galatians 3:13,14).
Do you get it?
You receive the PROMISE of the SPIRIT at your genuine salvation moment, when the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) came into YOU to dwell and live through you to carry out God's prefect and specific PLAN and PURPOSE for your life in Christ in this World. Halleluyah! (Ephesians 2:5-10).
The Bible reveals that:
So then they that are IN the FLESH (those having not the SPIRIT of GOD in them) cannot PLEASE God.
But you are not in the flesh, but IN the SPIRIT, if so be that the SPIRIT of GOD dwell in YOU. Now if any man (or woman) have NOT the SPIRIT of CHRIST, he (or she) is none of His.
For as many as are LED by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the SONS of GOD.
For you have NOT received the spirit of bondage again to fear. But you have RECEIVED the SPIRIT of ADOPTION, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
The SPIRIT Himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the CHILDREN of GOD.
And if children, then heirs. HEIRS of GOD and JOINT-HEIRS with CHRIST. If so be that we SUFFER with Him, that we may be also GLORIFIED together.
For I reckon that the SUFFERING of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the GLORY which shall be revealed in us.
For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the MANIFESTATION of the SONS of GOD.
For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of Him who has subjected the same in HOPE,
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the GLORIOUS LIBERTY of the children of God.
For we know that the WHOLE creation GROANS and TRAVAILS in PAIN together until now.
And not only they, but OURSELVES also, which have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves GROAN within ourselves, WAITING for the adoption, to wit, the REDEMPTION of our body.
For we are SAVED by HOPE. But HOPE that is SEEN is not HOPE. For what a man (or a woman) sees, why does he (or she) yet HOPE for?
But if we HOPE for that we see not, then do we with PATIENCE wait for it.
Likewise the SPIRIT also helps our INFIRMITIES. For we know NOT what we should PRAY for as we ought.
But the SPIRIT Himself makes INTERCESSION for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
And He that searches the hearts knows what is the Mind of the Spirit, because He makes INTERCESSION for the SAINTS according to the WILL of GOD.
And we know that ALL things WORK together for GOOD to them that LOVE God, to them who are the called according to His PURPOSE...
(Romans 8:9,15-39; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18; Romans 8:1-13).
So, the strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE), you and I have in Christ in this World as we journey from Earth to Heaven facing unavoidable challenging CIRCUMSTANCES for Christ's sake in this World, is the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living within and through us
in Christ in this World. Hallelujah!
No doubt, in this side of life, every man and woman faces challenging CIRCUMSTANCES that seem HOPELESS most times, but we in Christ, who have the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living within us, is not left HOPELESS by God in this World. That is, without a HOPE to anchor our soul (life) on as we journey from Earth to Heaven facing challenging CIRCUMSTANCES for Christ's sake in this World. True!
The Bible reveals that:
...CHRIST IN YOU (and I), the HOPE of GLORY. (Colossians 1:27).
Apostle Paul by experience says that:
We are TROUBLED on EVERY side, yet NOT distressed. We are PERPLEXED, but NOT in despair.
PERSECUTED, but not forsaken. CAST DOWN, but not destroyed.
ALWAYS bearing about in the BODY the DYING of the LORD JESUS, that the LIFE also of JESUS might be MADE manifest in OUR BODY.
For WE who LIVE are alway DELIVERED unto DEATH for JESUS' sake, that the LIFE also of JESUS might be MADE manifest in our mortal flesh (BODY).
So then death works in us, but life in you.
We having the same SPIRIT of FAITH, according as it is written, I believed and therefore have I spoken. We also believe and therefore speak.
Knowing that He (God) who RAISED up the Lord Jesus shall RAISE up us also by Jesus and shall present us with you.
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
For which cause we FAINT not. But though our OUTWARD (body) man perish, yet the INWARD (spirit) man is renewed day by day.
For our light AFFLICTION, which is but for a moment, WORKS for US a FAR MORE exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
While we LOOK not at the things which are SEEN, but at the things which are NOT SEEN. For the things which are seen are temporal. But the things which are not seen are eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:8-18; 2 Corinthians 12:5-10).
The spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you must be treasured and treated valuable and precious by you in Christ in this World. This is because, He is the divine TREASURE of HOPE living within you and I in Christ in this World, helping us see lights at the end of our dark tunnels in life. That is, when ALL seem HELPLESS and HOPELESS before us because of the challenging CIRCUMSTANCES we are facing in Christ in this World, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within us, teach, guide and help us to HEAR and SEE divine SOLUTIONS on how to either ENDURE, MANAGE or SOLVE them (our challenging CIRCUMSTANCES) in Christ in this world to the glory of God. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
But as it is written, EYE has not seen, nor EAR heard, neither have entered into the HEART of man (humans), the things which GOD has PREPARED for them that LOVE Him.
But GOD has REVEALED them unto us by His SPIRIT. For the SPIRIT searchs ALL things, yes, the DEEP things of GOD.
For what man KNOWS the things of a man, save (except) the SPIRIT of MAN (human) which is in him? Even so the THINGS of GOD knows no man, but the SPIRIT of GOD.
Now we have RECEIVED, not the SPIRIT of the WORLD, but the SPIRIT which is of GOD. That we might KNOW the THINGS that are freely GIVEN to us of GOD.
Which things also we speak, not in the words which MAN'S wisdom teachs, but which the Holy GHOST teaches; COMPARING spiritual things with spiritual.
But the NATURAL man (human who have not the Spirit of Christ wiyhin him or her) receives not the things of the SPIRIT of GOD. For they are FOOLISHNESS unto him (or her). Neither can he (or she) know them, because they are spiritually DISCERNED.
But he (or she) that is spiritual judges ALL things, yet he himself (or she herself) is judged of no man.
For who has known the MIND of the LORD that he (or she) may instruct Him? But we have the MIND of CHRIST. (1 Corinthians 2:9-16)
Note that:
1. The spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in you and I in Christ in this World, is our one and only strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE of GLORY) of reigning as divine KINGS and PRIESTS of GOD in Christ on EARTH now. True! Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:17; Revelation 5:9,10; 1 Peter 2:9,10; Mathew 5:13-16).
The Bible reveals that:
...CHRIST IN YOU (and I), the HOPE of GLORY. (Colossians 1:27).
2. The spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) in you and I in Christ in this World, is our one and only strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE of GLORY) of tasting as divine SALTS and shining as divine LIGHTS of GOD in Christ on EARTH now. True! Halleluyah! (Matthew 5:13-16; 1 Peter 2:9,10).
The Bible reveals that:
You are the SALT of the earth. But if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
You are the LIGHT of the WORLD. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick. And it gives light unto all that are in the house.
Let your LIGHT so SHINE before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. (Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5).
3. The spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) in you and I in Christ in this World, is our one and only strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE of GLORY) of reigning as JOINT-HEIRS with Christ in HEAVEN someday. True! Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:27; Ephesians 4:30).
The Bible reveals thus:
For if the dead rise NOT, then is NOT Christ raised.
And if Christ be NOT raised, your FAITH is VAIN You are yet in your sins.
Then they also which are FALLEN asleep in Christ are PERISHED.
If in this life ONLY we have HOPE in CHRIST, we are of all men most MISERABLE.
But NOW is Christ RISEN from the dead and become the first-fruits of them that slept.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam ALL die, even so in Christ shall ALL be made alive.
But every man in his own order. Christ the first-fruits. Afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. (1 Corinthians 15:16-23; Romans 8:15-19).
The spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) is our divine strong, sure and steadfast CONSOLATION (assuring HOPE) within us in Christ on Earth because:
1. He is within us to GUIDE us par time to ALL truth in Christ in this World. (John 16:13-15; Jphn 4:1-4; John 8:32).
2. He is within us to SHOW us things par time that we need to know in Christ concerning us or others in this World. (John 16:13-15; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16).
3. He is within us to HELP us to pray alright par time according to the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD for us or others on Christ in this World. (Romans 8:26-28; 1 John 5:14,15; James 4:1-4).
4. He is within us to LEAD us par time in making the right choices and in taking the right decisions according to the good, acceptable and perfect WILL of GOD for us, which makes us live not under the law, but under grace in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:14; Galatians 5:18; Romans 12:1,2).
5. He is within us to LIVE (through) us par time the character lifestyle (of the FRUITS of the SPIRIT) of Jesus Christ in this World. (Galatians 5:15-26; Romans 8:29,30; 1 John 4:17).
6. He is within us to LIVE (through) us par time the specific and unique plan and purposes of God for each of us, who are spiritually and supernaturally recreated and regenerated by God in Christ Jesus in this World. (Ephesians 2:5-10; John 14:12; Isaiah 61; 1 John 4:17).
7. He is within us to LIVE (through) us par time the competent lifestyle (of the GIFTS of the SPIRIT) of Jesus Christ in this World. (1 Corinthians 12; John 14:13; 1 John 4:17).
8. And many more.
That is why Apostle Paul by practical experience from results of the workings of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is living within and through him, boldly declared thus:
I CAN DO ALL things through CHRIST which STRENGTHENS me. (Philippians 4:13; Galatians 2:20).
Likewise, it is so for us too. True!
Therefore, the Bible counsels you and I:
1. Not to GRIEVE the divine assuring HOPE (the spiritual CHRIST called Holy SPIRIT) within us by deliberating sinning without repentance occasionally.
The Bible reveals thus:
And GRIEVE not the Holy SPIRIT of GOD, whereby you are SEALED unto the DAY of redemption. (Ephesians 4:30).
2. Not to QUENCH the divine assuring HOPE (the spiritual CHRIST called Holy SPIRIT) within us by deliberating sinning without repentance consistently.

LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (8)!
LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (8)!
Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, is within YOU as a divine directional COMPASS (to teach and guide) you victoriously and successfully through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World. Read write-up (7) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU to divinely COMFORT you (to give you perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in your TIME of TROUBLE as you journey from Earth to Heaven in Christ in this World.
JESUS CHRIST reveals that:
...In the WORLD you (and I) shall have TRIBULATION. But we should be of good CHEER, for He (Jesus Christ) has OVERCOME the World. That is, is in HIM (Jesus Christ), you (and I) shall have (perfect) PEACE in this World. Halleluyah! (John 16:33).
Sadly, many people in the World are ignorant of the fact that is only in JESUS CHRIST that they can have genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in this World. No other!
Sadly also, many genuine CHILDREN GOD in Christ in this World today are still looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) outside JESUS CHRIST in this World or outside the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) that is within them in Christ in this World. There is none to be found outside JESUS CHRIST or outside the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) that is within you in Christ in this World. None! I mean, none!
Therefore, I can confidently tell you that there is NO genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in this World outside JESUS CHRIST. No genuine COMFORT and I mean, NO genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP)!
The only lasting and genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in this World is the one GIVEN by JESUS CHRIST. He says thus:
PEACE I LEAVE with YOU, My PEACE I GIVE unto you. Not as the World gives, GIVE I unto YOU. Let not your HEART be TROUBLED, neither let it be AFRAID. (John 14:27).
The kind of the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) given by JESUS CHRIST cannot be compare to any other kind of comfort (peace and help) given by the World. True!
The PEACE that JESUS CHRIST leaves with you or gives you in this World brings you complete COMFORT during your times of TROUBLE in this World. Therefore, He says that:
Let not your HEART be TROUBLED. You believe in GOD, believe also in Me. (John 14:1).
If you do. I mean, if you do have unshakeable and unweaving FAITH in GOD in Christ in this World, you will overcome the World both spiritually and physically (practically) like JESUS CHRIST did, when He physically walked on the Earth. Yes, you will!
The Bible reveals thus:
For whosoever is BORN of GOD overcomes the World. And this is the VICTORY that overcomes the World (Satan and his satanic agents of demons and demonic human beings), even our FAITH.
Who is He that overcomes the World (Satan and his satanic agents of demons and demonised human beings) but He that BELIEVES that JESUS is the SON of GOD? (John 5:4,5).
Do you get it?
Interestingly, the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) you are looking for outside in this World is provided by a spiritual person within you. He is JESUS CHRIST Himself in His spiritual person called the Holy SPIRIT. JESUS CHRIST calls Him, the COMFORTER. He is within you. Halleluyah!
The Bible reveals thus:
...I (Jesus Christ) will pray the Father and He shall GIVE you another COMFORTER, that He may ABIDE with YOU forever.
Even the SPIRIT of TRUTH. Whom the WORLD cannot receive, because it sees Him not. Neither knows Him. But you know Him. For He DWELLS with YOU and shall be in YOU.
I will not leave COMFORTLESS. I will come to you.
Yet a little while and the World sees Me no more. But you see Me. Because I LIVE, you shall LIVE also.
At that day you shall know that I am in My Father and you in ME and I in YOU.
He that has My Commandments and keeps them, he (or she) it is that loves Me and he (or she) that love Me shall be loved of My Father and I will love him (or her) and will MANIFEST Myself to him (or her). (John 14:16-21).
If you recall, JESUS CHRIST in His physical person state and status (as the crucified SON of GOD) has already OVERCOME the WORLD and that is also true in His spiritual person state and status (as the risen SON of GOD)within YOU as well. Therefore, you who is BORN of GOD (born-again by the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT coming into you to live within you) has OVERCOME the WORLD as well. Halleluyah! (Colossians 2:8-10; 14,15).
Remember, as He (Jesus Christ) is, so are we in this World. True! (1 John 4:17).
Therefore, the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) you are looking for is already within you as a divine COMFORTER in the person of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you. Yes!
The JESUS CHRIST Himself says that:
And when He was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, He answered them and said, the kingdom of God comes NOT with observation.
Neither shall they say, Lo here! Or lo, there! For, behold, the kingdom of God (by the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT) is WITHIN you. Halelluyah! (Luke 17:20,21).
Therefore,
1. STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in PEOPLE of this World. Is not there. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20,21; John 14:16-18).
2. STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in PROFESSIONAL PRACTICES of this World. Is not there. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20,21; John 14:16-18).
3.STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in PLEASURES of this World. Is not there. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20,21; John 14:16-18)
4.STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in PRINCIPLES of this World. Is not there. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20,21; John 14:16-18).
5.STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in PROSPERITIES of this World. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20, 21; John 14:16-18).
6.STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in PROPERTIES of this World. Is not there. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20,21; John 14:16-18).
7.STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in ANYTHING or ANYBODY of this World. Is not there. It is within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. (Luke 17:20,21; John 14:17-18).
Until you STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) outside you, you will not connect with the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. True!
Until you STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) outside you, you will not encounter and experience the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) provided by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. True!
Therefore, take ADVANTAGE of Him in you by:
1. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, HEAR what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is saying to you to hear specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
2. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, SEE what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is showing to you to see specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
3. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, have faith enough to start THINKING what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is saying and showing to you to think specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
4. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, have faith enough to start SPEAKING what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU saying and showing to you to speak specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
5. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, have faith enough to start DOING what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is saying and showing to you to do specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
If you do, you will encounter and experience genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) of GOD in Christ in this World that comes from the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living and working from within YOU in Christ in this World. True! (Ephesians 3:20).
Now, you begin:
1. By coming ggenuinely to the Lord JESUS CHRIST by believing in Him, receiving Him, repenting from sinful lifestyle and confessing and making Him your personal Lord and Saviour in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
But what says it? the Word is near you, even in your MOUTH and in your HEART. That is, the Word of faith, which we preach.
That if you shall CONFESS with your MOUTH the Lord JESUS CHRIST and shall BELIEVE in your HEART that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be SAVED.
For witg the HEART man (human) BELIEVE unto RIGHTEOUSNESS and with the MOUTH confession is made unto SALVATION.
For the scripture says, whosoever BELUEVES on Him (JESUS CHRIST) shall not be ASHAMED. Romans 10:8-11; John 1:12; Romans 1:15-17).
2. By coming boldly unto the THRONE of GRACE of GOD in Christ.
The Bible reveals thus:
SEEING then that we have a great HIGH PRIEST, that is passed into the Heavens, JESUS the Son of God, let us HOLD FAST our profession.
For we have NOT an High Priest which cannot be touched with the FEELING of our INFIRMITIES. But was in ALL points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Let us therefore COME BOLDLY unto the THRONE of GRACE that we may obtain MERCY and find GRACE to help in TIME of NEED (Hebrews 4:14-16).
Why do you need to come unto the THRONE of GRACE of GOD in Christ?
1. To PRAY and to PRAISE to obtain MERCY, GRACE and PEACE of God in Christ Jesus.
The Bible reveals thus:
Let us therefore COME BOLDLY unto the THRONE of GRACE that we may obtain MERCY and find GRACE to help in TIME of NEED. (Hebrews 4:16).
2. To present to GOD in the name of JESUS CHRIST that which is threatening your perfect PEACE in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
Be careful for nothing. But in EVERYTHING by PRAYER and supplication with THANKSGIVING let your REQUESTS be made known unto GOD.
And the PEACE of GOD, which passes ALL understanding, shall KEEP your HEARTS and MINDS through Christ Jesus. Halleluyah! (Philippians 4:6,7).
3. To CAST all your CARES upon Him (God) in Faith.
The Bible reveals thus:
HUMBLE yourselves therefore under the mighty HAND of GOD, that He may EXALT you in DUE TIME.
Casting ALL your CARES (challenges) upon Him; for He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:6,7; Matthew 11:28-30).
JESUS CHRIST says you and I ALWAYS need to PRAY and not FAINT, because of the challenges we are facing in Him (Christ) in this World. He assure us that as we persist in PRAYER, God, the ultimate JUDGE over humans will avenge for us. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
And He spoke a parable unto them to this end, that men (humans) ought ALWAYS to PRAY and not to FAINT.
Saying, there was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man.
And there was a widow in that city. And she came unto him, saying, AVENGE me of mine adversary.
And he would not for a while. But afterward he said within himself, though I fear not God, nor regard man.
Yet because this widow TROUBLES me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.
And shall not God AVENGE His own ELECT, which cry day and night unto him, though He bear long (wait awhile) with them.
I tell you that He will AVENGE them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man comes shall He find FAITH on the Earth? (Luke 18:1-8).
If GOD finds FAITH in you and not FEAR (or FAINTING), you will surely laugh last. Yes, He will work ALL things together for your GOOD. I mean, He will make POSSIBLE for you that which seem IMPOSSIBLE to you, because He is ABLE, willing and FAITHFUL to His Word and own in Christ in this World, which you are one of them. Halleluyah! (Mark 9:23; Hebrews 11:6; 1 Thessalonians 5:24).
Therefore, you must not FEAR or FAINT in your DAY of ADVERSITY (trouble) in Christ in this World. If you do, your STRENGTH in Christ in this World is SMALL ssays the Word of God.
The Bible reveals thus:
If you FAINT in the DAY of ADVERSITY, your STRENGTH is SMALL. (Proverbs 24:10; Ecclesiastes 7:14).
Once again, in your TIME of TROUBLE in Christ in this World, don't first look outside you for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP), but look and take ADVANTAGE of the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) giver of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you by putting Him to work for YOU (or other people, who are in need of divine help through YOU) through passionate and persistent PRAYER and PRAISE in holiness, in faith and in patience until you hear or see what He wants you to do in faith concerning the CHALLENGE at hand and as you obey and do it in faith, it shall be WELL peacefully and safely with you (or them) in Christ in this World. True! (Philippians 4:6,7 ; James 5:6,7).
For GOD gave a prophecy that ALL who MOURN (suffers and sorrows) in ZION shall be COMFORTED in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals:
COMFORT you, COMFORT you My people, says your GOD.
Speak you COMFORTABLY to Jerusalem and cry unto her, that her WARFARE is accomplished, that her INIQUITY is pardoned. For she has received of the LORD's hand double for all her sins.
The voice of him that cries in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill shall be made low. And the crooked shall be made straight and the rough places plain.
And the GLORY of the LORD shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken it. (Isaiah 40:1-5; Isaiah 60).
That shall be your portion in the land of the living in Jesus name.
And JESUS CHRIST is that GLORY of GOD that was revealed in due time to give the COMFORT prophesied to them that MOURN in ZION.
The Bible reveals that:
And He (Jesus Christ) 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.
And there was delivered unto Him the BOOK of the prophet ISAIAH. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written,
The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has ANOINTED ME to preach the gospel to the poor (humble); He has SENT ME to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
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.
And He began to say unto them, this day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. (Luke 6:16-21; Isaiah 61:1-3).
Are you not COMFORTED in any way or in any form in Christ in this World? Have faith and stay in FAITH, in HOLINESS and in PATIENCE because:
BLESSED are they that MOURN (not rejoicing in Christ or rejected for Christ's sake in this World). For they shall be COMFORTED (either on Earth now or in Heavrn simeday). True! Halleluyah! (Matthew 5:4; ).
They shall have genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in Christ in this World as long as they love GOD, His Words, Ways and Wills in Christ in this World. True! (Psalm 119:165).
Get to truly and personally know the true and genuine COMFORTER in this World that is within you and encounter and experience true and genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) that He gives in Christ in this World or that nothing or no human can give in this World. True! Halleluyah!
Remember that what is presented to you today, is a wise CHOICE that is yours to MAKE and a smart DECISION that is yours to TAKE in Christ in this World, cconsciously and urgently.
God bless you.

Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, is within YOU as a divine directional COMPASS (to teach and guide) you victoriously and successfully through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World. Read write-up (7) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU to divinely COMFORT you (to give you perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in your TIME of TROUBLE as you journey from Earth to Heaven in Christ in this World.
JESUS CHRIST reveals that:
...In the WORLD you (and I) shall have TRIBULATION. But we should be of good CHEER, for He (Jesus Christ) has OVERCOME the World. That is, is in HIM (Jesus Christ), you (and I) shall have (perfect) PEACE in this World. Halleluyah! (John 16:33).
Sadly, many people in the World are ignorant of the fact that is only in JESUS CHRIST that they can have genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in this World. No other!
Sadly also, many genuine CHILDREN GOD in Christ in this World today are still looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) outside JESUS CHRIST in this World or outside the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) that is within them in Christ in this World. There is none to be found outside JESUS CHRIST or outside the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) that is within you in Christ in this World. None! I mean, none!
Therefore, I can confidently tell you that there is NO genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in this World outside JESUS CHRIST. No genuine COMFORT and I mean, NO genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP)!
The only lasting and genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in this World is the one GIVEN by JESUS CHRIST. He says thus:
PEACE I LEAVE with YOU, My PEACE I GIVE unto you. Not as the World gives, GIVE I unto YOU. Let not your HEART be TROUBLED, neither let it be AFRAID. (John 14:27).
The kind of the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) given by JESUS CHRIST cannot be compare to any other kind of comfort (peace and help) given by the World. True!
The PEACE that JESUS CHRIST leaves with you or gives you in this World brings you complete COMFORT during your times of TROUBLE in this World. Therefore, He says that:
Let not your HEART be TROUBLED. You believe in GOD, believe also in Me. (John 14:1).
If you do. I mean, if you do have unshakeable and unweaving FAITH in GOD in Christ in this World, you will overcome the World both spiritually and physically (practically) like JESUS CHRIST did, when He physically walked on the Earth. Yes, you will!
The Bible reveals thus:
For whosoever is BORN of GOD overcomes the World. And this is the VICTORY that overcomes the World (Satan and his satanic agents of demons and demonic human beings), even our FAITH.
Who is He that overcomes the World (Satan and his satanic agents of demons and demonised human beings) but He that BELIEVES that JESUS is the SON of GOD? (John 5:4,5).
Do you get it?
Interestingly, the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) you are looking for outside in this World is provided by a spiritual person within you. He is JESUS CHRIST Himself in His spiritual person called the Holy SPIRIT. JESUS CHRIST calls Him, the COMFORTER. He is within you. Halleluyah!
The Bible reveals thus:
...I (Jesus Christ) will pray the Father and He shall GIVE you another COMFORTER, that He may ABIDE with YOU forever.
Even the SPIRIT of TRUTH. Whom the WORLD cannot receive, because it sees Him not. Neither knows Him. But you know Him. For He DWELLS with YOU and shall be in YOU.
I will not leave COMFORTLESS. I will come to you.
Yet a little while and the World sees Me no more. But you see Me. Because I LIVE, you shall LIVE also.
At that day you shall know that I am in My Father and you in ME and I in YOU.
He that has My Commandments and keeps them, he (or she) it is that loves Me and he (or she) that love Me shall be loved of My Father and I will love him (or her) and will MANIFEST Myself to him (or her). (John 14:16-21).
If you recall, JESUS CHRIST in His physical person state and status (as the crucified SON of GOD) has already OVERCOME the WORLD and that is also true in His spiritual person state and status (as the risen SON of GOD)within YOU as well. Therefore, you who is BORN of GOD (born-again by the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT coming into you to live within you) has OVERCOME the WORLD as well. Halleluyah! (Colossians 2:8-10; 14,15).
Remember, as He (Jesus Christ) is, so are we in this World. True! (1 John 4:17).
Therefore, the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) you are looking for is already within you as a divine COMFORTER in the person of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you. Yes!
The JESUS CHRIST Himself says that:
And when He was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, He answered them and said, the kingdom of God comes NOT with observation.
Neither shall they say, Lo here! Or lo, there! For, behold, the kingdom of God (by the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT) is WITHIN you. Halelluyah! (Luke 17:20,21).
Therefore,

Until you STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) outside you, you will not connect with the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. True!
Until you STOP looking for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) outside you, you will not encounter and experience the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) provided by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who is within YOU in Christ in this World. True!
Therefore, take ADVANTAGE of Him in you by:
1. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, HEAR what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is saying to you to hear specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
2. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, SEE what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is showing to you to see specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
3. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, have faith enough to start THINKING what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is saying and showing to you to think specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
4. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, have faith enough to start SPEAKING what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU saying and showing to you to speak specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
5. Praying to and praising GOD until you peacefully within you, have faith enough to start DOING what the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within YOU is saying and showing to you to do specifically and personally about your challenge, in your TIME of TROUBLE in this World.
If you do, you will encounter and experience genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) of GOD in Christ in this World that comes from the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living and working from within YOU in Christ in this World. True! (Ephesians 3:20).
Now, you begin:
1. By coming ggenuinely to the Lord JESUS CHRIST by believing in Him, receiving Him, repenting from sinful lifestyle and confessing and making Him your personal Lord and Saviour in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
But what says it? the Word is near you, even in your MOUTH and in your HEART. That is, the Word of faith, which we preach.
That if you shall CONFESS with your MOUTH the Lord JESUS CHRIST and shall BELIEVE in your HEART that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be SAVED.
For witg the HEART man (human) BELIEVE unto RIGHTEOUSNESS and with the MOUTH confession is made unto SALVATION.
For the scripture says, whosoever BELUEVES on Him (JESUS CHRIST) shall not be ASHAMED. Romans 10:8-11; John 1:12; Romans 1:15-17).
2. By coming boldly unto the THRONE of GRACE of GOD in Christ.
The Bible reveals thus:
SEEING then that we have a great HIGH PRIEST, that is passed into the Heavens, JESUS the Son of God, let us HOLD FAST our profession.
For we have NOT an High Priest which cannot be touched with the FEELING of our INFIRMITIES. But was in ALL points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Let us therefore COME BOLDLY unto the THRONE of GRACE that we may obtain MERCY and find GRACE to help in TIME of NEED (Hebrews 4:14-16).
Why do you need to come unto the THRONE of GRACE of GOD in Christ?
1. To PRAY and to PRAISE to obtain MERCY, GRACE and PEACE of God in Christ Jesus.
The Bible reveals thus:
Let us therefore COME BOLDLY unto the THRONE of GRACE that we may obtain MERCY and find GRACE to help in TIME of NEED. (Hebrews 4:16).
2. To present to GOD in the name of JESUS CHRIST that which is threatening your perfect PEACE in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
Be careful for nothing. But in EVERYTHING by PRAYER and supplication with THANKSGIVING let your REQUESTS be made known unto GOD.
And the PEACE of GOD, which passes ALL understanding, shall KEEP your HEARTS and MINDS through Christ Jesus. Halleluyah! (Philippians 4:6,7).
3. To CAST all your CARES upon Him (God) in Faith.
The Bible reveals thus:
HUMBLE yourselves therefore under the mighty HAND of GOD, that He may EXALT you in DUE TIME.
Casting ALL your CARES (challenges) upon Him; for He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:6,7; Matthew 11:28-30).
JESUS CHRIST says you and I ALWAYS need to PRAY and not FAINT, because of the challenges we are facing in Him (Christ) in this World. He assure us that as we persist in PRAYER, God, the ultimate JUDGE over humans will avenge for us. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
And He spoke a parable unto them to this end, that men (humans) ought ALWAYS to PRAY and not to FAINT.
Saying, there was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man.
And there was a widow in that city. And she came unto him, saying, AVENGE me of mine adversary.
And he would not for a while. But afterward he said within himself, though I fear not God, nor regard man.
Yet because this widow TROUBLES me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.
And shall not God AVENGE His own ELECT, which cry day and night unto him, though He bear long (wait awhile) with them.
I tell you that He will AVENGE them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man comes shall He find FAITH on the Earth? (Luke 18:1-8).
If GOD finds FAITH in you and not FEAR (or FAINTING), you will surely laugh last. Yes, He will work ALL things together for your GOOD. I mean, He will make POSSIBLE for you that which seem IMPOSSIBLE to you, because He is ABLE, willing and FAITHFUL to His Word and own in Christ in this World, which you are one of them. Halleluyah! (Mark 9:23; Hebrews 11:6; 1 Thessalonians 5:24).
Therefore, you must not FEAR or FAINT in your DAY of ADVERSITY (trouble) in Christ in this World. If you do, your STRENGTH in Christ in this World is SMALL ssays the Word of God.
The Bible reveals thus:
If you FAINT in the DAY of ADVERSITY, your STRENGTH is SMALL. (Proverbs 24:10; Ecclesiastes 7:14).
Once again, in your TIME of TROUBLE in Christ in this World, don't first look outside you for genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP), but look and take ADVANTAGE of the genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) giver of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you by putting Him to work for YOU (or other people, who are in need of divine help through YOU) through passionate and persistent PRAYER and PRAISE in holiness, in faith and in patience until you hear or see what He wants you to do in faith concerning the CHALLENGE at hand and as you obey and do it in faith, it shall be WELL peacefully and safely with you (or them) in Christ in this World. True! (Philippians 4:6,7 ; James 5:6,7).
For GOD gave a prophecy that ALL who MOURN (suffers and sorrows) in ZION shall be COMFORTED in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals:
COMFORT you, COMFORT you My people, says your GOD.
Speak you COMFORTABLY to Jerusalem and cry unto her, that her WARFARE is accomplished, that her INIQUITY is pardoned. For she has received of the LORD's hand double for all her sins.
The voice of him that cries in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill shall be made low. And the crooked shall be made straight and the rough places plain.
And the GLORY of the LORD shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken it. (Isaiah 40:1-5; Isaiah 60).
That shall be your portion in the land of the living in Jesus name.
And JESUS CHRIST is that GLORY of GOD that was revealed in due time to give the COMFORT prophesied to them that MOURN in ZION.
The Bible reveals that:
And He (Jesus Christ) 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.
And there was delivered unto Him the BOOK of the prophet ISAIAH. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written,
The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has ANOINTED ME to preach the gospel to the poor (humble); He has SENT ME to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
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.
And He began to say unto them, this day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. (Luke 6:16-21; Isaiah 61:1-3).
Are you not COMFORTED in any way or in any form in Christ in this World? Have faith and stay in FAITH, in HOLINESS and in PATIENCE because:
BLESSED are they that MOURN (not rejoicing in Christ or rejected for Christ's sake in this World). For they shall be COMFORTED (either on Earth now or in Heavrn simeday). True! Halleluyah! (Matthew 5:4; ).
They shall have genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) in Christ in this World as long as they love GOD, His Words, Ways and Wills in Christ in this World. True! (Psalm 119:165).
Get to truly and personally know the true and genuine COMFORTER in this World that is within you and encounter and experience true and genuine COMFORT (perfect PEACE and safe HELP) that He gives in Christ in this World or that nothing or no human can give in this World. True! Halleluyah!
Remember that what is presented to you today, is a wise CHOICE that is yours to MAKE and a smart DECISION that is yours to TAKE in Christ in this World, cconsciously and urgently.
God bless you.

LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (7)!
LIVING ADVANTAGEOUSLY BY THE SPIRITUAL CHRIST WITHIN YOU IN THIS WORLD (7)!
Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, spiritually birth an uncommon and unusual COMPETENCE (ability and gift) within YOU in Christ in this World. Read write-up (6) of this series for more.
The Bible reveals that:
Even the MYSTERY (spiritual secret) which has been from AGES and from GENERATIONS, but now is made manifest to His Saints:
To whom GOD would make known what is the RICHES of the GLORY of this MYSTERY (spiritual secret) among the GENTILES (those who are not naturally from any of the tribes of Israel in this World); which is CHRIST IN YOU, the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:26,27; 2 Corinthians 4:1-7).
For today, I will be informing you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), who spiritually and supernaturally came into you on your genuine salvation moment, is within YOU as a divine directional COMPASS (to teach and guide you) victoriously and successfully through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World.
Honestly speaking, you and I have not passed through (from Earth to Heaven) before. But, it is it is so sad that unknown to many, especially to some genuine CHILDREN of GOD in Christ in this World, that the activities of the Earth are mainly spiritually and supernaturally driven or orchestrated by both godly and ungodly spiritual forces and powers. Sad, but so true! (Matthew 6:10; Ephesians 6:10-18).
Therefore,
1. You and I compulsorily and consistently needs a spiritual TEACHER, to teach us on how to victoriously and successfully navigate through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World.
Therefore, the Bible reveals our spiritual TEACHER as thus:
But the ANOINTING (spiritual CHRIST called the Holy Holy SPIRIT you have received of Him (God) abide IN you and you need not that any man TEACH you. But as the same ANOINTING (spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT TEACHES you of ALL things and is truth and is no lie and even as it has TAUGHT you, you shall abide in Him. (1 John 2:27).
Our one and only true spiritual TEACHER on Earth provided by GOD for us in Christ in this World is the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you and I or through spiritually and supernaturally driven persons (of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers) ordained and gifted by God to be our physical "TEACHERS" on Earth in Christ in this World under the compulsory and consistent spiritual influence (tutorship and leadership) of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within them. True, but they are to NURTURE and MATURE us (Saints in the Body of Christ in this World) over time to directly LEARN from the ultimate TEACHER, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within us in Christ in this World. True! Halleluyah! (Ephesians 4; 1 Peter 5:1-10).
2. You and I compulsorily and consistently need a spiritual GUIDANCE, to guide or lead us victoriously and successfully through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World.
Therefore, the Bible reveals our spiritual GUIDANCE as thus:
However, when He, the SPIRIT of TRUTH, is come, He will GUIDE you into ALL TRUTH. For He shall not speak of Himself. But whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak. And He will SHOW you things to COME.
He shall glorify Me. For He shall RECEIVE of mine and shall SHOW it unto you.
All things that the Father has are mine. Therefore said I, that He shall take of mine and shall SHOW it unto you. (John 16:13-15).
Also, the Bible reveals thus:
For as MANY as are LED (guided) by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the SONS (and daughters) of GOD. (Romans 8:14).
Furthermore, they who are LED (guided) by the SPIRIT of GOD are not living under the LAW, but living under GRACE. Halleluyah! (Galatians 5:18).
Our one and only true spiritual GUIDANCE on Earth provided by GOD for us in Christ in this World is the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you and I or through spiritually and supernaturally driven persons (of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers) ordained and gifted by God to be our physical "GUIDANCE" on Earth in Christ in this World under the compulsory and consistent spiritual influence (tutorship and leadership) of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within them. True, but they are to GUIDE us (Saints in the Body of Christ in this World) over time to directly LEARN how to be GUIDED in Christ in this World by the ultimate GUIDANCE, the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy Holy SPIRIT) within us. True! Halleluyah! (Ephesians 4; 1 Peter 5:1-10).
As a result of our being spiritually ignorant and naive on how to victoriously and successfully navigate through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World, GOD mercifully and graciously provided us with:
1. The HOLY BIBLE, which is authored by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT), as a written GUIDE and TUTOR to provide us a divine directional COMPASS (to teach and guide) us victoriously and successfully through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World. Halleluyah! God is good!
The Bible reveals thus:
Knowing this FIRST, that NO prophecy of the SCRIPTURE is of ANY private interpretation.
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man (human). But HOLY MEN of GOD spoke as they were MOVED (influence and inspired) by the HOLY GHOST (within them). (2 Peter 1:20,21; Job 32:8).
Do you get it?
Furthermore, the Bible reveals that:
All SCRIPTURES are given by INSPIRATION of GOD and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in RIGHTEOUSNESS:
That the MAN (or woman) of GOD may be PERFECT, thoroughly furnished unto ALL good works. (2 Timothy 3:16; Psalm 19:7-14; 2 Timothy 2:15).
Do you get it?
2. The HOLY SPIRIT (the spiritual CHRIST called the Holy SPIRIT within us) is a live GUIDANCE and TEACHER within us to be our divine directional COMPASS (to teach and guide) us victoriously and successfully) through (from Earth to Heaven) in Christ in this World. Halleluyah! God is good!
The Bible reveals thus:
However, when He, the SPIRIT of TRUTH, is come, He will GUIDE you into ALL TRUTH. For He shall not speak of Himself. But whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak. And He will SHOW you things to COME.
He shall glorify Me. For He shall RECEIVE of mine and shall SHOW it unto you.
All things that the Father has are mine. Therefore said I, that He shall take of mine and shall SHOW it unto you. (John 16:13-15).
Remember, it is only the TRUTH, you KNOW, think, speak and LIVE by that will
set you FREE from ALL forms of human and satanic BONDAGE(S) and give you VICTORY and SUCCESS in Christ in this World. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
And you shall KNOW the TRUTH and the TRUTH shall make you FREE. (John 8:32, 36; Joshua 1:8; 1 John 4:1-4).
Do you get it?
You will be SHORT-CHANGING yourself and other people you are supposed to be a blessing to in this World, if you are not taking ADVANTAGE of the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within you in Christ in this World.
In other words, you will be living UNWISELY and not SMARTLY, if you are not taking ADVANTAGE of the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within you in Christ in this World by not allowing:
1. The WORD of GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to DWELL RICHLY, completely and consistently in YOU in ALL wisdom in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
Let the WORD of CHRIST dwell in YOU richly in ALL wisdom. Teaching and admonishing one another in Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual songs, singing with GRACE in your HEARTS to the Lord.
And whatsoever you DO in word or deed, do ALL in the NAME of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to GOD and the Father by Him. (Colossians 3:16,17; Ephesians 5:15-18).
As you allow the WORD of GOD to richly and mightily GROW within you in Christ in this World progressively, so you will prevail VICTORIOUSLY and SUCCESSFULLY in Christ in this World progressively. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
...So mightily GREW the WORD of GOD and PREVAILED. (Acts 19:20).
Do you get it?
2. The WORD of GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you is to influence your THINKING completely and consistently in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
Finally, brethren (brothers and sisters in the Lord), 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.
Those things, which you have both LEARNED and RECEIVED and HEARD and SEEN in me, DO And the GOD of PEACE shall be with you. (Philippians 4:8,9; Colossians 2:8-10).
Therefore, Apostle Paul says:
I BESEECH (beg) you therefore, brethren (brothers and sisters in the Lord), by the MERCIES of GOD, that you PRESENT (humbly submit) your BODIES as a LIVING SACRIFICE, HOLY, acceptable unto GOD, which is your reasonable SERVICE (to God).
And be not CONFORMED to this World (patterned yourselves to the principles and pleasures of this WORLD). But be TRANSFORMED (changed) by the RENEWING (changing) of your MIND (with the WORD of GOD by the help of the SPIRIT of GOD within you), that you may PROVE (know convincingly) what is that good, acceptable and PERFECT WILL of GOD (for you in Christ par time and situation in this World). (Romans 12:1,2; 1 Peter 2:5).
Do you get it?
3. The WORD of GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to influence your SPEAKING completely and consistently in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be you therefore WISE as serpents, and HARMLESS as doves.
But BEWARE of men (or women). For they will deliver you up to the councils and they will scourge you in their synagogues.
And you shall be brought before governors and kings for MY SAKE for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
But when they deliver you up, TAKE NO THOUGHT how or what you shall SPEAK For it shall be GIVEN YOU in that SAME HOUR what you shall SPEAK
For it is NOT you that SPEAK, but the SPIRIT of your FATHER which speaks in YOU. (Matthew 10:16-20; Luke 21:15; Colossians 2:8-10).
Do you get it?
4. The WORD GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to influence your LIVING completely and consistently in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
But be you DOER of the WORD (of GOD), and not hearers only, DECEIVING your own selves.
For if any be a HEARER of the WORD (of GOD), and not a DOER, he is like unto a man (or woman) beholding his natural face in a glass (mirror).
For he beholds himself (or herself) and goes his (or her) way and straightway forgets what manner of man (or woman) he (or she) was.
But whosoever looks into the PERFECT LAW of LIBERTY (freedom of any kind) and CONTINUES therein, he (or she) being not a forgetful HEARER, but a DOER of the work, this man (or woman) shall be BLESSED in his (or her) deed. (James 1:22-25; Matthew 16:19; Colossians 2:8-10).
Do you get it?
5. The WORD GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to influence YOU completely and consistently in ALL things, in ALL situations and in ALL circumstances in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
For as MANY as are LED (influenced) by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the SONS (and daughters) of GOD. (Romans 8:14).
Now, remember, the Bible reveals that:
For as he (any man or woman) THINKS in his (or her) HEART, so is he (or she in this World)... (Proverbs 23:7).
But,
...Because as HE (Jesus Christ) is, so are we in this world. (1 John: 4. 17).
Therefore, GOD expects, you and I to THINK, SPEAK and LIVE as holy gods of His in Christ in this World as He (Jesus Christ) was, when He was physical here on Earth, but now spiritually in us. Yes! Halleluyah!
So, if you continuously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE like humans by conforming to the words, ways and wills of this world, you will get the World's kind of results as humans living in this World. True!
But, if you continuously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE like GOD (Jesus Christ) by conforming to Words, Ways and Wills of GOD , you will get the God's kind of results as holy gods of GOD in Christ living in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
GOD stands in the congregation of the mighty He judges among the gods (you and I).
How long will you judge unjustly and accept the persons of the wicked?
Defend the poor and fatherless. Do justice to the afflicted and needy.
Deliver the poor and needy. Rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
They KNOW NOT, neither will they understand. They WALK on in DARKNESS. ALL the FOUNDATIONS of the EARTH are out of course.
I have said, YOU are gods. And ALL of YOU are CHILDREN of the Most High (GOD).
But YOU shall DIE like MEN (humans) and FALL like one of the PRINCES (human rulers and leaders).
Arise, O God, judge the Earth. For you shalt inherit ALL nations. (Psalm 82:1,6,7; John 10:33-35; Isaiah 60).
Do you get it?
The Bible further reveals that our winning edge ADVANTAGE in Christ in this World is this:
But as it is written, EYE has not seen, nor EAR heard, neither have entered into the HEART of man, the things which GOD has PREPARED for them that LOVE Him.
But GOD has REVEALED them unto US by His SPIRIT. For the SPIRIT searches ALL things, yes, the DEEP things of God.
For what man (human) KNOWS the things of a man (human), save (except) the SPIRIT of MAN (human) which is in him (or her)? Even so the things of GOD knows no man, but the SPIRIT of GOD.
Now we have RECEIVED, not the SPIRIT of the WORLD (Satan), but the SPIRIT which is of GOD. That we might KNOW the THINGS that are freely GIVEN to US of GOD (in Christ Jesus).
Which things also we speak, not in the words which MAN'S WISDOM teaches, but which the HOLY GHOST teaches. Comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
But the NATURAL man (or woman) receives NOT the things of the SPIRIT of GOD. For they are FOOLISHNESS unto him (or her). Neither can he (or she) KNOW them, because they are spiritually DISCERNED.
But he (or she) that is SPIRITUAL judges ALL things, yet he himself (or she herself) is judged of no man.
For who has KNOWN the MIND of the LORD, that he (or she) may instruct Him? But we have the MIND of CHRIST (because the spiritual CHRIST lives in us in Christ in this World). Halleluyah! (1 Corinthians 2:9-16; John 16:13,14; Romans 8:1-30; Ephesians 1:3,4).
Do you get it?
Some of those HIDDEN and SECRET things of GOD in Christ about YOU that only the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within YOU knows about are:
1. Your real and true Life PURPOSE (reason of existence) of GOD in Christ in this World.
2. Your real and true Life PERSONALITY of GOD in Christ in this World.
3. Your real and true Life POTENTIALS (natural and supernatural gifts, talents, skills) of GOD in Christ in this World.
4. Your real and true Life PLACE (dwelling on the Earth par time) of GOD in Christ in this World.
5. Your real and true Life PARTNER (spouse) of GOD in Christ in this World.
6. Your real and true Life PRAYER (per time to say) of GOD in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:26,27; Matthew 6:10; James 4:2-4).
7. Many more.
ALL the above stated SECRETS of GOD about your uniqueness in Christ in this World is your winning EDGE secrets of GOD in Christ that you must desire, discover, develop and deliver (manifest) to be:
1. ADVANTAGEOUS in Christ in this World. True!
2. VICTORIOUS in Christ in this World. True!
3. OUTSTANDING in Christ in this World. True!
4. SUCCESSFUL in Christ in this World. True!
5. SATISFIED in Christ in this World. True!
(John 9:4,5; John 17:1-5; Philippians 3:13,14; 2 Timothy 4:5-8; Hebrews 12:1-3; Matthew 5:13-16; 1 John 4:17).
Always remember that:
The SECRET of the LORD is with them that FEAR Him . And He will SHOW them His covenant. (Psalm 25:14; Deuteronomy 29:29; Proverbs 1:7)
Again, your level of KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING and WISDOM of Him (God) in Christ in this World matters.
The Bible reveals thus:
GRACE and PEACE be multiplied unto you THROUGH the KNOWLEDGE of GOD and of JESUS our Lord.
According as His DIVINE POWER has GIVEN unto us ALL things that pertain unto LIFE and GODLINESS, through the KNOWLEDGE of HIM that has called us to glory and virtue.
Whereby are GIVEN unto us exceeding great and precious PROMISES. That by these you might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through LUST. (2 Peter 1:3,4; James 1:12-15; Ephesians 1:15-23; Hosea 4:6; Proverbs 11:9).
Therefore,
1. You cannot be SOWING thinking, speaking and lifestyle of a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World and expect to be REAPING thinking, speaking and lifestyle of an Adult CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. Never!
2. You cannot be PAYING the PRICE of a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World and expect to be RECEIVING the PRIZE of an Adult CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. Never!
This is because the Bible reveals that:
Be not DECEIVED. God is not MOCKED. For whatsoever a man (or woman) SOWS, that shall he (or she) also REAP.
For he (or she) that SOWS to his (or her) FLESH shall of the flesh REAP corruption. But he (or she) that SOWS to the SPIRIT shall of the Spirit REAP life everlasting.
And let us NOT be WEARY in WELL DOING. For in due season we shall REAP, if we faint not.
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
(Galatians 6:7-10; Galatians 4:1-7; Hebrews 5:12-14; Philippiabs 3'13,14; 1 Corinthians 13:11; 2 Timothy 4:5-8; John 17:1-5; Luke 19:18-30).
Do you get it?
There is a earthly and heavenly PRIZE of GOD in Christ for being a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. Likewise, an earthly and heavenly PRIZE of GOD in Christ for being a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. (1 Corinthians 3:6-15; Corinthians 13:11; Timothy 2:15; Hebrews 5:12-14; Hosea 4:6; Proverbs 11:9)
God cannot be MOCKED. Take note!
Therefore, take ADVANTAGE of the divine directional COMPASS (of the teaching and guidance) of the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within you and think, speak and live ADVANTAGEOUSLY to your ADVANTAGE in Christ in this World. Yes, do! (Joshua 1:8; Deuteronomy 30:19,20; Psalm 19:7-14; Psalm 1:1-3).
It is your PRIVILEGE in Christ in this World. Don't deny yourself and other people the divine BENEFITS it brings in Christ in the World. Don't please!
STUDY to KNOW and UNDERSTAND first and PRAY to HEAR and get WISDOM second, then OBEY and ACT in faith third. All by the help of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you in Christ in this World and ypu will win ADVANTAGEPUSLY in Christ in this World. Yes, you will WIN and SUCCED in Jesus name! (2 Timothy 2:15; James 1:5-8; James 2:14-26).
Do have a JOYOUS week in Jesus name.
God bless you.

Those things, which you have both LEARNED and RECEIVED and HEARD and SEEN in me, DO And the GOD of PEACE shall be with you. (Philippians 4:8,9; Colossians 2:8-10).
Therefore, Apostle Paul says:
I BESEECH (beg) you therefore, brethren (brothers and sisters in the Lord), by the MERCIES of GOD, that you PRESENT (humbly submit) your BODIES as a LIVING SACRIFICE, HOLY, acceptable unto GOD, which is your reasonable SERVICE (to God).
And be not CONFORMED to this World (patterned yourselves to the principles and pleasures of this WORLD). But be TRANSFORMED (changed) by the RENEWING (changing) of your MIND (with the WORD of GOD by the help of the SPIRIT of GOD within you), that you may PROVE (know convincingly) what is that good, acceptable and PERFECT WILL of GOD (for you in Christ par time and situation in this World). (Romans 12:1,2; 1 Peter 2:5).
Do you get it?
3. The WORD of GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to influence your SPEAKING completely and consistently in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be you therefore WISE as serpents, and HARMLESS as doves.
But BEWARE of men (or women). For they will deliver you up to the councils and they will scourge you in their synagogues.
And you shall be brought before governors and kings for MY SAKE for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
But when they deliver you up, TAKE NO THOUGHT how or what you shall SPEAK For it shall be GIVEN YOU in that SAME HOUR what you shall SPEAK
For it is NOT you that SPEAK, but the SPIRIT of your FATHER which speaks in YOU. (Matthew 10:16-20; Luke 21:15; Colossians 2:8-10).
Do you get it?
4. The WORD GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to influence your LIVING completely and consistently in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
But be you DOER of the WORD (of GOD), and not hearers only, DECEIVING your own selves.
For if any be a HEARER of the WORD (of GOD), and not a DOER, he is like unto a man (or woman) beholding his natural face in a glass (mirror).
For he beholds himself (or herself) and goes his (or her) way and straightway forgets what manner of man (or woman) he (or she) was.
But whosoever looks into the PERFECT LAW of LIBERTY (freedom of any kind) and CONTINUES therein, he (or she) being not a forgetful HEARER, but a DOER of the work, this man (or woman) shall be BLESSED in his (or her) deed. (James 1:22-25; Matthew 16:19; Colossians 2:8-10).
Do you get it?
5. The WORD GOD (written or spoken) by the spiritual CHRIST (called the SPIRIT of GOD) within you to influence YOU completely and consistently in ALL things, in ALL situations and in ALL circumstances in Christ in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
For as MANY as are LED (influenced) by the SPIRIT of GOD, they are the SONS (and daughters) of GOD. (Romans 8:14).
Now, remember, the Bible reveals that:
For as he (any man or woman) THINKS in his (or her) HEART, so is he (or she in this World)... (Proverbs 23:7).
But,
...Because as HE (Jesus Christ) is, so are we in this world. (1 John: 4. 17).
Therefore, GOD expects, you and I to THINK, SPEAK and LIVE as holy gods of His in Christ in this World as He (Jesus Christ) was, when He was physical here on Earth, but now spiritually in us. Yes! Halleluyah!
So, if you continuously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE like humans by conforming to the words, ways and wills of this world, you will get the World's kind of results as humans living in this World. True!
But, if you continuously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE like GOD (Jesus Christ) by conforming to Words, Ways and Wills of GOD , you will get the God's kind of results as holy gods of GOD in Christ living in this World.
The Bible reveals thus:
GOD stands in the congregation of the mighty He judges among the gods (you and I).
How long will you judge unjustly and accept the persons of the wicked?
Defend the poor and fatherless. Do justice to the afflicted and needy.
Deliver the poor and needy. Rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
They KNOW NOT, neither will they understand. They WALK on in DARKNESS. ALL the FOUNDATIONS of the EARTH are out of course.
I have said, YOU are gods. And ALL of YOU are CHILDREN of the Most High (GOD).
But YOU shall DIE like MEN (humans) and FALL like one of the PRINCES (human rulers and leaders).
Arise, O God, judge the Earth. For you shalt inherit ALL nations. (Psalm 82:1,6,7; John 10:33-35; Isaiah 60).
Do you get it?
The Bible further reveals that our winning edge ADVANTAGE in Christ in this World is this:
But as it is written, EYE has not seen, nor EAR heard, neither have entered into the HEART of man, the things which GOD has PREPARED for them that LOVE Him.
But GOD has REVEALED them unto US by His SPIRIT. For the SPIRIT searches ALL things, yes, the DEEP things of God.
For what man (human) KNOWS the things of a man (human), save (except) the SPIRIT of MAN (human) which is in him (or her)? Even so the things of GOD knows no man, but the SPIRIT of GOD.
Now we have RECEIVED, not the SPIRIT of the WORLD (Satan), but the SPIRIT which is of GOD. That we might KNOW the THINGS that are freely GIVEN to US of GOD (in Christ Jesus).
Which things also we speak, not in the words which MAN'S WISDOM teaches, but which the HOLY GHOST teaches. Comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
But the NATURAL man (or woman) receives NOT the things of the SPIRIT of GOD. For they are FOOLISHNESS unto him (or her). Neither can he (or she) KNOW them, because they are spiritually DISCERNED.
But he (or she) that is SPIRITUAL judges ALL things, yet he himself (or she herself) is judged of no man.
For who has KNOWN the MIND of the LORD, that he (or she) may instruct Him? But we have the MIND of CHRIST (because the spiritual CHRIST lives in us in Christ in this World). Halleluyah! (1 Corinthians 2:9-16; John 16:13,14; Romans 8:1-30; Ephesians 1:3,4).
Do you get it?
Some of those HIDDEN and SECRET things of GOD in Christ about YOU that only the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within YOU knows about are:
1. Your real and true Life PURPOSE (reason of existence) of GOD in Christ in this World.
2. Your real and true Life PERSONALITY of GOD in Christ in this World.
3. Your real and true Life POTENTIALS (natural and supernatural gifts, talents, skills) of GOD in Christ in this World.
4. Your real and true Life PLACE (dwelling on the Earth par time) of GOD in Christ in this World.
5. Your real and true Life PARTNER (spouse) of GOD in Christ in this World.
6. Your real and true Life PRAYER (per time to say) of GOD in Christ in this World. (Romans 8:26,27; Matthew 6:10; James 4:2-4).
7. Many more.
ALL the above stated SECRETS of GOD about your uniqueness in Christ in this World is your winning EDGE secrets of GOD in Christ that you must desire, discover, develop and deliver (manifest) to be:
1. ADVANTAGEOUS in Christ in this World. True!
2. VICTORIOUS in Christ in this World. True!
3. OUTSTANDING in Christ in this World. True!
4. SUCCESSFUL in Christ in this World. True!
5. SATISFIED in Christ in this World. True!
(John 9:4,5; John 17:1-5; Philippians 3:13,14; 2 Timothy 4:5-8; Hebrews 12:1-3; Matthew 5:13-16; 1 John 4:17).
Always remember that:
The SECRET of the LORD is with them that FEAR Him . And He will SHOW them His covenant. (Psalm 25:14; Deuteronomy 29:29; Proverbs 1:7)
Again, your level of KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING and WISDOM of Him (God) in Christ in this World matters.
The Bible reveals thus:
GRACE and PEACE be multiplied unto you THROUGH the KNOWLEDGE of GOD and of JESUS our Lord.
According as His DIVINE POWER has GIVEN unto us ALL things that pertain unto LIFE and GODLINESS, through the KNOWLEDGE of HIM that has called us to glory and virtue.
Whereby are GIVEN unto us exceeding great and precious PROMISES. That by these you might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through LUST. (2 Peter 1:3,4; James 1:12-15; Ephesians 1:15-23; Hosea 4:6; Proverbs 11:9).
Therefore,
1. You cannot be SOWING thinking, speaking and lifestyle of a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World and expect to be REAPING thinking, speaking and lifestyle of an Adult CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. Never!
2. You cannot be PAYING the PRICE of a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World and expect to be RECEIVING the PRIZE of an Adult CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. Never!
This is because the Bible reveals that:
Be not DECEIVED. God is not MOCKED. For whatsoever a man (or woman) SOWS, that shall he (or she) also REAP.
For he (or she) that SOWS to his (or her) FLESH shall of the flesh REAP corruption. But he (or she) that SOWS to the SPIRIT shall of the Spirit REAP life everlasting.
And let us NOT be WEARY in WELL DOING. For in due season we shall REAP, if we faint not.
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
(Galatians 6:7-10; Galatians 4:1-7; Hebrews 5:12-14; Philippiabs 3'13,14; 1 Corinthians 13:11; 2 Timothy 4:5-8; John 17:1-5; Luke 19:18-30).
Do you get it?
There is a earthly and heavenly PRIZE of GOD in Christ for being a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. Likewise, an earthly and heavenly PRIZE of GOD in Christ for being a Baby CHRISTIAN in Christ in this World. (1 Corinthians 3:6-15; Corinthians 13:11; Timothy 2:15; Hebrews 5:12-14; Hosea 4:6; Proverbs 11:9)
God cannot be MOCKED. Take note!
Therefore, take ADVANTAGE of the divine directional COMPASS (of the teaching and guidance) of the spiritual CHRIST (called Holy SPIRIT) within you and think, speak and live ADVANTAGEOUSLY to your ADVANTAGE in Christ in this World. Yes, do! (Joshua 1:8; Deuteronomy 30:19,20; Psalm 19:7-14; Psalm 1:1-3).
It is your PRIVILEGE in Christ in this World. Don't deny yourself and other people the divine BENEFITS it brings in Christ in the World. Don't please!
STUDY to KNOW and UNDERSTAND first and PRAY to HEAR and get WISDOM second, then OBEY and ACT in faith third. All by the help of the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you in Christ in this World and ypu will win ADVANTAGEPUSLY in Christ in this World. Yes, you will WIN and SUCCED in Jesus name! (2 Timothy 2:15; James 1:5-8; James 2:14-26).
Do have a JOYOUS week in Jesus name.
God bless you.
