Previously, I informed you that the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you, spiritually birth a good and godly CHARACTER (new nature) within YOU in Christ in this World. Read write-up (5) 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, spiritually birthed an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE within YOU in Christ in this World.
By COMPETENCE, I mean you received at your genuine salvation (born-again) moment by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) coming into you:
1. New supernatural ABILITIES and GIFTS in addition to your
2. Born with natural ABILITIES and GIFTS.
The Bible reveales that:
...If the SPIRIT of HIM (God) that raised JESUS from the dead DWELLS (lives) in YOU, He that raised up CHRIST from the dead shall also QUICKEN your mortal (natural Human) BODIES by His SPIRIT that DWELLS (lives) in YOU. Halleluyah! (Romans 8:11).
The Bible further reveals that:
...CHRIST is the POWER (ability) of GOD and the Wisdom of GOD. (1 Corinthians 1:24).
Now read this:
...CHRIST (the power and wisdom of God) in YOU the HOPE of GLORY (on Earth now and in Heaven someday). Halleluyah! (Colossians 1:27).
Do you get it?
Again, the Bible reveals that:
...When He (Jesus Christ) ascended up on high, He led captivity captive and gave GIFTS unto men (and women including you and I in Him in this World). (Ephesians 4:8; 1 Corinthians 12; Ephesians 4:11-16; Romans 12).
Are you not excited about this?
That is why, Apostle Paul boldly says thus:
For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of CHRIST. For it is the POWER (ability) of GOD unto SALVATION (freedom of any kind) to every one that believes. To the Jew first and also to the Greek (others).
For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD revealed from faith to faith. As it is written, the JUST (justified by God in Christ) shall LIVE by FAITH. (Romans 1:16;17).
Therefore, you and I must:
BEWARE lest any man (or woman) spoil you (and I) through philosophy and vain deceit after the TRADITION of MEN, after the rudiments (principles) of the World and not after CHRIST.
For in HIM (Christ) dwells ALL the FULLNESS of the GODHEAD bodily.
And you (and I) are COMPLETE in HIM (Christ), who is the HEAD of ALL principality and power. Halleluyah! (Colossians 2:8-10).
Can you see what is inside you as a genuine CHILD of GOD in Christ in this World or what you are carrying all about unknowingly and unconsciously? Can you see? Can you imagine?
You are more than WHO you thinks, speaks and acts you are in Christ in this World. True!
You are more than WHAT people thinks, speaks and acts you are in Christ in this World. True!
You are a specially and uniquely branded personality of JESUS CHRIST in this World.
The Bible reveals that:
....As He (Jesus Christ) is, so are we in this World. Halleluyah! (1 John 4:17).
You and I are specifically and uniquely:
...His (God's) workmanship, created in CHRIST JESUS unto good works, which GOD has before ordained that we should walk in them. Halleluyah! (Ephesians 2:10).
Do you get it?
Therefore,
1. Who the physical CHRIST (Jesus) was physically in this World, you and I are physically, but uniquely in Him (Christ) in this World by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within us. Halleluyah!
2. What the physical CHRIST (Jesus) was physically able to do in this World, you and I are able to do physically, but uniquely in Him (Christ) in this World by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within us. Halleluyah! (John 14:12-17).
The Bible reveals that:
...As MANY as RECEIVED HIM (Christ Jesus genuinely), to them GAVE He POWER (ability) to BECOME the sons (or daughters) of GOD, even to them that BELIEVE (genuinely) on His NAME (Jesus Christ):
Who were BORN (again), not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of GOD. Halleluyah! (John 1:12,13; John 3:1-8).
Do you get it?
By the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living inside of you, you have an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) within you that will enable:
1. To think (read), speak (pray) and live (do) the WORD of GOD (in the BIBLE) and direct instructions from the SPIRIT of GOD within you in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of TRUTH and He lives within you! (John 16:13,14; Romans 8:1-27).
2. To think, speak and live RIGHT and HOLY to PLEASE God in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of HOLINESS and He lives within you! (1 Peter 1:14-16; Romans 8:1-19).
3. To think, speak and live by FAITH to PLEASE God in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of FAITH and He lives within you! (2 Corinthians 4:13; Hebrews 11:6).
4. To think, speak and live HARMONIOUSLY (lovingly and peacefully) with people in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of LOVE and PEACE and He lives within you! (Ephesians 4:3; Hebrews 12:14).
5. To think, speak and live VICTORIOUSLY in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of VICTORY and He lives within you! (Isaiah 59:19; Zechariah 4:6; 1 John 5:4,5; Romans 8:31-39).
6. To think, speak and live SUCCESSFULLY in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of SUCCESS and He lives within you! (Romans 8:28-30; Joshua 1:8).
7. To think, speak and live SATISFACTORILY (moderation and contentment) in Christ in this World. Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of MODERATION and CONTENTMENT and He lives within you! . (Philippians 4:5-7; 1Timothy 6:6-12 ).
8. To think, speak and live to DO whatsoever GOD wants you to DO for Him in Christ in this World. True! Yes, you can because He is the SPIRIT of OBEDIENCE and uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) and He lives within you! (Philippians 4:13).
With that understanding in mind, Apostle Paul boldly declares:
I can do ALL THINGS through CHRIST who STRENGTHENS me. (Philippians 4:13; Galatians 2:20).
Can you boldly say the same in Christ today?
Why did Apostle Paul says that?
1. Because he confidently knew that:
nobody and nothing can SEPARATE him from the LOVE of GOD in Christ and STOP him from become ALL God wanted him to be in Christ in this World. And you too. (Romans 13:31-39).
2. Because he consciously knew that:
...Greater is HE (spiritual CHRIST) that is in him, than he (or she) that is in the World. And you too. Halleluyah! (1John 4:4).
You and I need to consciously and consistently think, speak and live, knowing that greater is HE (spiritual CHRIST) that is in US, than he (or she) that is in the World.
If we do:
1. We will think, speak and live confidently and boldly to PLEASE nobody (no matter what) except GOD, like the spiritual CHRIST within us did, when He was physically here in this World. True! (1 John 4:17; Colossians 3:22-25).
2. We will think, speak and live confidently and boldly, NOT SEEKING HONOUR from anybody (no matter what) except from GOD, like the spiritual CHRIST within us did, when He was physically here in this World. True! (1 John 4:17; John 5:41-44).
3. We will think, speak and live fearlessly and boldly, NOT MINDING who is pleased or displeased as long as GOD is please with us, like the spiritual CHRIST within us did, when He was physically here in this World. True! (1 John 4:17; Matthew 10:26-33; Romans 8:31-39; 2 Timothy 1:7).
Believe it or not, there is an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) that came into you at your genuine moment of salvation by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) coming within you that moment.
1. You need to BELIEVE it as truth in Christ in this World for you.
2. You need to ACCEPT it as truth in Christ in this World for you.
3. You need to RELEASE it (stir up) by faith as truth in Christ in this World for you and through you.
That is why Apostle Paul reminded Timothy (as he is doing for you and I as well) thus:
Wherefore I put you in REMEMBRANCE that you STIR UP the GIFT of GOD, which is in YOU by the putting on of my hands (by the spiritual transfer of the gift of the spiritual CHRIST in me to you).
For GOD has not given US the spirit of fear, but of POWER, of LOVE and of SOUND MIND. (2 Timothy 6:6,7).
Apostle Paul understood and knew that we personally understanding and manifesting our uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCIES (abilities and gifts), which we have received by the coming in of the spiritual CHRIST into us, is our ADVANTAGE and winning EDGE over Satan and the people of the World.
That is why he is encouraging you and I:
1. To DESIRE our specific and unique COMPETENCIES (abilities and gifts), which we have individually and uniquely received by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) coming within us in Christ in this World.
2. To DISCOVER our specific and unique COMPETENCIES (abilities and gifts), which we have individually and uniquely received by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) coming within us in Christ in this World.
3. To DEVELOP our specific and unique COMPETENCIES (abilities and gifts), which we have individually and uniquely received by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) coming within us in Christ in this World.
4. To DELIVER our specific and unique COMPETENCIES (abilities and gifts), which we have individually and uniquely received by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) coming within us to the World's benefit for God's glory in Christ in this World. (Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5).
Therefore, he (Apostle Paul) further says that:
Now concerning spiritual GIFTS, brethren (brothers and sisters in the Lord), I would not have you IGNORANT...
Wherefore I give you to UNDERSTAND, that no man (or woman) speaking by the SPIRIT of GOD calls JESUS accursed. And that no man (or woman) can say JESUS is the LORD, but by the HOLY GHOST.
Now there are DIVERSITIES of GIFTS, but the same SPIRIT.
And there are DIFFERENCES of ADMINISTRATIONS, but the same LORD.
And there are DIVERSITIES of OPERATIONS, but it the same GOD, who works ALL in ALL.
But the MANIFESTATION of the SPIRIT is given to EVERY man (and woman) TO PROFIT WITHAL (with). (1 Corinthians 12:1-7; 1 Corinthians 14:1).
Please, take notice of the last verse and the words "TO PROFIT WITH". It is to your and other people's ADVANTAGE in this World, you desire, discover, develop and deliver (manifest) your uncommon and unique divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) in Christ in this World. Yes, it is!
Apostle Paul further listed nine (9) spiritual GIFTS amongst others that comes into you by the spiritual CHRIST within you, which should be daily seen manifesting in your life and mine in Christ in this World:
1. Spiritual GIFT of Word of WISDOM, which enables you and I to know present and future things to the glory of GOD.
2. Spiritual GIFT of Word of KNOWLEDGE, which enables you and I to know past and hidden things to the glory of GOD.
3. Spiritual GIFT of FAITH, which enables you and I to trust and believe GOD enough to be blessed to be a blessing to other people in the World to the glory of GOD.
4. Spiritual GIFT of HEALING, which enables you and I to be channel of God's healing to other people in this World to the glory of GOD.
5. Spiritual GIFT of working of MIRACLES, which enables you and I to perform unusual miracles, signs and wonders in the name of Jesus in this World to the glory of GOD.
6. Spiritual GIFT of PROPHECY, which enables you and I to say or speak present and future things (base on the written and spoken Word of God) that will comes to pass in this World to the glory of GOD.
7. Spiritual GIFT of DISCERNING of spirits, which enables you and I to know which kind of spirit (s) is in operation (in or through a person) par time to the glory of GOD.
8. Spiritual GIFT of DIVERS KINDS of tongues, which enables you and I to be able to speak other tongues (languages) of the humans including that of the tongues (languages) of angels to the glory of GOD.
9. Spiritual GIFT of INTERPRETATION of tongues, which enables you and I to be able to understand other tongues (languages) of the humans including that of the tongues (languages) of angels to the glory of GOD. (1 Corinthians 12:8-31; Isaiah 11:1-4; Job 22:28; 1 Corinthians 13:1; 1 Corinthians 14:1).
Again, I say to you, there is an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) working in and through you by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World. True!
The Bible reveals thus:
Now unto Him (God) that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the POWER (ability) that works in US. Halleluyah!
(Ephesians 3:20).
Do you get it?
Now note,
1. There is an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) working IN YOU right NOW by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World, which is able to make you BECOME and DO what GOD has designed, created and ordained you to BE and DO for Him in Christ in this World. True, believe it and act on it now!
2. There is an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) working UPON YOU right NOW by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World, which is able to make you BECOME and DO what GOD has designed, created and ordained you to BE and DO for Him in Christ in this World. True, believe it and act on it now!
3. There is an uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) working THROUGH YOU right NOW by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World, which is able to make you BECOME and DO what GOD has designed, created and ordained you to BE and DO for Him in Christ in this World. True, believe it and act on it now! (Ephesians 3:20; Acts 1:8; Acts 2).
For in Him we LIVE, MOVE and HAVE our being... (Acts 17:28).
For it is GOD who works IN YOU (and I) both to WILL (desire) and to DO of His good pleasure (purpose). (Philippians 2:13).
More than your EDUCATIONAL KNOWLEDGE, PROFESSIONAL SKILL, EXPERTISE and EXPOSURE is in You by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World. Consciously know it, value it and use it to your and other people's ADVANTAGE in this World!
Please read: Psalm 119:97-102 to confirm it.
More than what MONEY can buy is in You by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World. Consciously know it, value it and use it to your and other people's ADVANTAGE in this World!
Please read: Acts 3; Psalm 19:7-14; 1 Timothy 6:6-12; 2 Timothy 3:14-17 to confirm it.
Amongst others, you can STIR UP to your and other people's ADVANTAGE, the uncommon and unusual divine COMPETENCE (ability and gift) within YOU by the spiritual CHRIST within you in Christ in this World:
1. By thinking, speaking and living a life of HOLINESS. (Romans 12:1,2).
2. By thinking, speaking and living the WORD of GOD. (1 Corinthians 2:1-5; James 1:22-25; Joshua 1:8; Matthew 16:19).
3. By thinking, speaking and living a life of FAITH. (Matthew 17:19,20).
4. By thinking, speaking and living a life of PRAYER and DECLARATION (Luke 18:1-8; James 5:17,18; Matthew 17:19,21; Job 22:28; Luke 21:12-15).
5. By thinking, speaking and living a life of FASTING. (Mark 9:28, 29).
6. By thinking, speaking and living a life of GIVING. (Matthew 5:12; Matthew 25:31-46; Matthew 6).
7. By thinking, speaking and living a life of PRAISE, WORSHIP and THANKSGIVING. (Psalm 22:3; Acts 16:25,26).
Therefore, when Paul and Silas STIRRED UP theirs by PRAYER and PRAISE when in prison, God SHOWED UP and did not fail them. He will not fail you and I as well, as we too in faith, STIR UP ours in our or other people's time of needs in Jesus name. He will not, because He is ABLE, WILLING and FAITHFUL to His WORD at ALL times and in ALL situations. (1 Thessalonians 5:24; Hebrews 4:14-16).
Don't shortchange yourself and other people you are CALLED and EMPOWERED to be a blessing to in this World. Please, don't depart this World completely FULL or half FULL, but completely EMPTY. Don't!
He is in YOU till the end of the World. STIR Him UP! (Mark 16:15-20; Romans 11:29; 2 Timothy 1:6,7).
Never you think, say and act I CAN'T, because YOU actually CAN by the spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) within you in Christ in this World.
Therefore, I CAN'T, do not conform to your NEW STATE (condition) and STATUS (position) in Christ in this World, but I CAN, do. True! (Philippians 4:13; Galatians 2:20).
...The GIFTS and calling of GOD are without REPENTANCE (changing). HE is in you till you depart this World as long as you remain in Him (Christ) in this World. Therefore, you have to start using yours now before it is too late for you on Earth. (Romans 11:29).
Now,
For He (God) has said, you (and I) are gods and we ALL are CHILDREN of the MOST HIGH (God).
But we shall DIE like MEN (humans) and FALL like one of the princes (rulers and leaders of the World, if we do not consciously and confidently ARISE and STIR UP (think, speak and live) manifesting who we truly and really are in Christ in this World by the Spiritual CHRIST (called the Holy SPIRIT) living within us). True, but God forbids! (Psalm 82:6,7; John 10:33-38; Revelation 5:9,10; Proverbs 28:1; Ecclesiastes 10:7; 1 John 4:17).
Do have a LOVELY weekend in Jesus name!
God bless you.
