BIBLE BASIC FOCUS: The Jesus Christ of the BIBLE!

BACK TO THE BIBLE BASICS (written) BROADCAST (4B)

4B...only the truth you know makes you free!

BIBLE BASIC FOCUS: The Jesus Christ of the BIBLE!

If truly your born again experience is genuine, you will understand that genuine CHRISTIANITY walk and work with God is about passionately and persistently LOOKING unto JESUS CHRIST as your ultimate role model, who is the Author and Finisher of your faith. That is, LOOKING unto how JESUS CHRIST walk and work with God in this World and got His Father's Will and Work for Him done during His lifetime on Earth. Nothing more, nothing less. True!

Take note, take heed!

Now, if may I ask you, is it the JESUS CHRIST of the BIBLE described above you know about or someone else?

And can you boldly say of a truth that you are RELATING or REPRESENTING the JESUS CHRIST of the BIBLE or someone else?

Think about it and do something now about it, if yours is not.

People looked at the disciples of Jesus Christ in the early days of the Church and Christianity practice and called them CHRISTIANS (Christ's followers). This is because they saw the JESUS CHRIST of the BIBLE in them and through them. So, what do the people of the World call you and I today when they see and interact with us? (Acts 11:26).

You and I know better. Therefore it is time for us to REPENT and RETURN back to the BASICS of the BIBLE to know, understand and live out the life and works of  JESUS CHRIST of the BIBLE we are professing, following and representing on Earth Says the Spirit of the Lord. Take note, take heed!

We should not be deceived, but always remember that it is only the JESUS CHRIST of the BIBLE that still saves, heals, delivers, intervenes, helps, comforts and rewards us now on Earth and in Heaven someday. True!

God bless you.

BIBLE BASIC FOCUS: The Contents of the Bible!

BACK TO THE BIBLE BASICS (written) BROADCAST (4B)!

4B...only the truths you know makes you free

BIBLE BASIC FOCUS: The Contents of the Bible!

CHRISTIANITY is not the idea of man (you and I). Therefore no man has the RIGHT to add or subtract from to the contents of the BIBLE, where Christianity BASICS are revealed and outlined. In fact, it is a CURSE to do so. (Galatians 1:6-12; Revelation 22:18).

The BIBLE has only ONE supernatural AUTHOR, the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of Christ. This is revealed in the BIBLE. Every book reveals its author. (2 Timothy 3:16,17; 2 Corinthians 3:17).

In 2 Peter 1:19-21, the BIBLE reveals its AUTHOR as the same HOLY SPIRIT of God that moved and wrote through SEVERAL Holy men of God at different times and places thus:

We have also a more sure WORD of prophecy; whereunto you DO well that you take heed, as unto a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 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: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. (2 Peter 1:19-21).

It is good for you to KNOW FIRST that the SCRIPTURE was not inspired and authored by men, but by the one and only AUTHOR, the HOLY SPIRIT of God Himself. Knowing this first should help you to take the contents of the Bible seriously. Take note, take heed!

It is disheartening the way  many genuine Christians takes lightly the contents of Bible today. Many do take other unscriptural materials more importantly and more to mind and heart than the contents of the Bible, they supposedly claimed they believe on. So sad, so bad!

In 2 Timothy 3:16,17, the BIBLE reveals the purposes of the AUTHOR of the BIBLE to be thus:

All SCRIPTURE is given by inspiration of God, and is PROFITABLE:

1. For doctrine,

2. For reproof,

3. For correction,

4. For instruction in righteousness:

That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. (2 Timothy: 3. 16,17).

Can you boldly say as a genuine follower of God in Christ that the contents of the BIBLE is your basic, where you get your DOCTRINE from, get your REPROOF from, get your CORRECTION from and get your INSTRUCTION from?

If no, you are not practicing the genuine CHRISTIANITY that is CHRIST-centered and CHRIST-driven. Therefore, you must REPENT and RETURN back now to the true BASICS of the BIBLE before is too late for you. True!

By the grace of God upon me to understand and reveal TRUTHS of the BIBLE, the Holy Spirit will be writing and speaking through me in 2018  to inform or correct you as the case maybe on different BIBLE BASICS that you will need to know or understand their true meaning to make spiritual and physical PROGRESS in 2018. Watch out daily and stay connected.

It is very dangerous in the days we are living in to be ignorant of:

1. The true INTENTION of the Author of the BIBLE. True!

2. The true MEANING of the contents of the BIBLE. True!

3. The true PURPOSE of the contents of the BIBLE. True!

Believing a LIE is as dangerous as believing half truth or as basing your believe on man's wisdom and not on divine wisdom. Take note, take heed!

Apostle Paul said  this thus:

And I, brethren, when I came to you, came NOT with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined NOT to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was NOT with enticing words of MAN'S wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should NOT stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. (1 Corinthians: 2. 1-5).

Take note, take heed!

Always remember that it is only the TRUTH you KNOW that makes you FREE says Jesus Christ. (John 8:31,32,36).

Don't become so FAMILIAR with the BIBLE to a point of you taking it contents for granted or ignoring it as if it is MAN talking to you and not GOD talking to You. This is because if you do, you will PAY a great PRICE on Earth now and Heaven someday for it. True!

Many Christians are already and unknowingly having the rewards for IGNORING, IGNORANT and DISOBEYING the contents of the BIBLE consciously and consistently in some or every area of their lives. True!

Don't be a victim of BIBLE contents IGNORANCE. Study to make yourself APPROVED of God as His divine priest and king in Christ on Earth and sacrificially think, speak and live each day according to the BIBLE contents and you will be greatly rewarded for it now Earth and Heaven someday. (2 Timothy 2:15; Philippians 4:8,9; Revelation 5:8-10; Luke 18:28-30).

Do you not know that Ignoring or being ignorant of the contents of the BIBLE is ignoring or being ignorant of the AUTHOR of the BIBLE, who is the one and only LOVER of your Soul and who truly and unconstitutional CARE for you and desire to HELP you through your life journey's, especially in your rough and tough times. (Hosea 4:6; 1 Peter 5:6,7, John 14:15-21; Romans 8:14,26-28; Jeremiah 33:3).

Do have a wonderful week in Jesus name.

God bless you.

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (21)!

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (21)!

The Earth is the LORD'S, and the FULLNESS thereof; the World, and THEY that dwell therein. For He has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. WHO shall ASCEND into the hill of the LORD? or WHO shall STAND in his Holy place? He that has CLEAN hands, and a PURE heart; who has NOT lifted up his SOUL unto VANITY, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall RECEIVE the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of them that SEEK Him, that SEEK your face, O Jacob. Selah. (Psalm 24:1-6).

It saddens my heart to see lots of genuine Christians daily thinks, speaks and lives their lives as if it is not their GOD and LORD that:

1. Owns the Earth and the FULLNESS (everything) in it. So sad, so bad!

2. Owns the World and THEY (everyone) that dwell in it. So sad, so bad!

Because of the LACK of consciousness of the truth stated above:

1. Many Children of God in Christ do express LOW SELF-ESTEEM instead of expressing Christ's worth in them. So sad, so bad! (Philippians 4:13).

2. Many Children of God in Christ do express DEPRESSION instead of expressing Christ's joy and peace in them. So sad, so bad! (Philippians 4:8,9).

3. Many Children of God in Christ do COMPRISE biblical standards to make ends meet instead of depending on Christ's supply to them. So sad, so bad!(Philippians 4:19; Philippians 1:19).

4. Many Children of God in Christ are LUST driven like the people of the World instead of Christ's LOVE driven. So sad, so bad! (1 John 2:15-17; 1 John 4).

5. Many Children of God in Christ do SEEK men's FAVOUR to get things or appointments and contracts, etc instead of SEEKING God's FAVOUR in Christ to them. So sad, so bad! (Ephesians 1:3-7; Revelation 5:8-12).

And so on!

The Bible reveals to us that JESUS CHRIST, our one and only ultimate role model for living a victorious, glorious and fulfilled life to PLEASE God on Earth was:

1.  In FAVOUR with God and

2. In FAVOUR with man. True! (Luke 2:52)

That means that once you have FAVOUR with God, you will supernaturally and practically have FAVOUR with men. Halleluyah!

JESUS CHRIST never FOCUS on getting favour or honour from men, but from God only. This because He knew that once He is in FAVOUR with God, He will be in with man. True! (John 5:41-44).

Do you not know you seeking Favour or honour from man than seeking it from God is a proof of your lack of FAITH in Him and the Bible reveals to us in Hebrews 11:6 that WITHOUT faith it is impossible to please God and to receive a reward (blessing) from Him. True!

If you truly desire to see God give you a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and a glorious 2018, then you must  humbly SEEK Him ALONE for FAVOUR with Him and with man to meet your needs. True!

That is why Bible said to you, to 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. (1 Peter 5:6,7).

Take note, take heed!

Now, it is true that Christ has gotten us righteousness that goes with FAVOUR with God, but you and I have to maintain that favour by living HOLY lives here on Earth. True! (1 Peter 1:14-17).

Therefore, our today's scriptural passage above ask us a critical, very important and timely question thus:

WHO shall ASCEND into the hill of the LORD? or WHO shall STAND in his Holy place?

Answer: He that has CLEAN hands, and a PURE heart; who has NOT lifted up his SOUL unto VANITY, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall RECEIVE the BLESSING from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of them that SEEK Him, that SEEK your face, O Jacob.

That is why Apostle Peter counselled us to be HOLY as He who has called us is HOLY. (1 Peter 1:14-17)

Do you only SEEK  the HAND of God and not His FACE?

1. Seekers of the FACE of God are looking for Him daily in HOLINESS based on their LOVE for Him and what He desire to do in them and through them in terms of His Word, Ways and Will for them in Christ in this World. (Mark 12:28-30; Romans 8:28).

They usually find His loving face and caring hand as well. Halleluyah!

2. Seekers of the HAND of God are looking for Him daily in UNHOLINESS based on their LUST for what He can give them only. True! (James 4:1-5; 1 John 2:15-17).

They usually do not find Him. So sad, so bad!

Which are you?

Don't be deceived, it is your HOLINESS (maintaining of Christ's righteousness on you) that ASCENDS your Soul practically and powerfully from the Earth to Heaven to receive a BLESSING from the Lord par time par your need. True! (3 John 1:2).

Take note, take heed!

Always remember that you are in a spiritual, but real WARFARE with Satan, demons and His human agents to think, speak and live in LUST and SIN against God's Word, Ways and Will for you in Christ in this World, so that your SOUL will not ASCEND to the Holy Hill (throne of grace) of God to obtain BLESSING met for you in Christ in the spiritual places above. True! (1 Peter 5:6-10; 1 John 5:16-21; Ephesians 6:10-18; Ephesians 1:3-7; Hebrews 4:16; 3 John 1:2).

Take note, take heed and start thinking, speaking and living in HOLINESS daily by thinking, speaking and living in accordance with the Word, Ways and Will of God for you in Christ with the help of the HOLY SPIRIT of Christ that is within you in this World. (Philippians 4:8,9; Romans 8:1-28; Romans 12:1,2).

If you do, you will surely have a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and a glorious 2018. True!

Now, I was woken up this morning with this song from a night vision where I was praying for some singles who desires to get married. However, whatsoever is your need, please join today to SING this SONG very well and you shall see your issue miraculously solved or need come to pass in Jesus name (if you don't know the song, confess it instead:

I am a miracle, yes I am a miracle,

I don't know about you, I am a miracle,

If you don't know what to praise the Lord

Praise the Lord for me. (Repeat as many times possible)

2018...our year of TESTIMONY.

God bless you.

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (20)!

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (20)!

And Jesus answering said unto them, HAVE FAITH in GOD. For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall SAY unto this mountain, be you removed, and be you cast into the sea; and shall NOT DOUBT in his heart, but shall BELIEVE that those things which he said shall COME to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. Therefore I say unto you, what things soever you DESIRE, when you PRAY, BELIEVE that you RECEIVE them, and you shall HAVE them. (Mark 11:22-24).

The Holy Spirit reveals to me these critical but mostly ignored dimensions of FAITH in the WORD of God thus:

1. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to READ and STUDY it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently read and study it as they do with other unscriptural materials. (2 Timothy 2:15).

2. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to OBEY and LIVE it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently obey and live it as they do with other unscriptural materials. (James 1:22-25; Romans 12:1,2).

3. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to MEDITATE and DESIRE it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently meditate and desire it as they do with other unscriptural materials. (Philippians 4:8,9; Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1:1-3)

4. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to PRAY or CONFESS it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently pray or confess it as they do with other unscriptural materials. (Luke 18:1-7; Joshua 1:8).

5. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to EXPECT it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently expect it manifestation as they do with other unscriptural materials. (Psalm 19:7-14; Hebrews 11).

6. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to PATIENTLY WAIT for it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently patiently wait for it as they do with other unscriptural materials. (Hebrews 6:12; Romans 4:17-25).

7. That FAITH is believing the WORD of God enough to GIVE PRAISE and THANKSGIVING for it.

It is saddening that lots of Christians unknowingly do not know it is because they do not consciously and convincingly BELIEVE the WORD of God, they DO NOT passionately and persistently give praise and thanksgiving to God for it as they do with other unscriptural materials. (Romans 4:17-25).

From the first scriptural passage stated above, JESUS CHRIST said to us:

1. To have FAITH in God.

No doubt, Jesus Christ is saying we should have trust in the WORD of God and it shall be so for us. True!

2. To have no DOUBT in our declaration.

No doubt, Jesus Christ is saying we should believe the WORD of God that we declare by FAITH over our situation and it shall be so for us. True!

Conclusively, Jesus Christ said to us that WHATSOEVER:

1. We DESIRE,

2. When we PRAY,

3. We should BELIEVE we have RECEIVED it and we will have it. Halleluyah!

If you do, I assure you, you will not only have a peaceful and a PROSPEROUS 2018, but also a glorious one. True!

However, I strongly believe that many of us now need to consciously SHIFT by FAITH from PRAYING on those situations or expectations of ours to BELIEVING we have RECEIVED them because we have already had PEACE in our heart after praying about them. True! (Philippians 4:6,7).

It is a necessary SHIFT most of us need to make now to see the miraculous manifestation of our expectations. True!

Take note, take heed!

Is your FAITH roaring enough based on the WORD of God to silent your doubt?

2018...our year of TESTIMONY.

God bless you.

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (19)!

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (19)!

Cry yet, saying, thus said the LORD of hosts; My CITIES through PROSPERITY shall yet be SPREAD ABROAD; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem. (Zechariah 1:17).

I heard the Spirit of God telling me that PROSPERITY is the excesses that one's have. That is, one is PROSPEROUS when he or she has excesses or more than his or her BASIC NEEDS. That this excesses (in terms of finance, possessions, etc) are to be GIVEN AWAY to help others to STRENGTHEN their Faith in God and to SPREAD the gospel of Christ. Take note, take heed!

I believe that is why Apostle Paul said thus:

But godliness with CONTENTMENT is great gain. For we brought NOTHING into this World, and it is certain we can carry NOTHING out. And having FOOD and RAIMENT (clothe) let us be therewith content. (1 Timothy 6:6-8).

And further counselled us thus:

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any COMFORT of LOVE, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfil you my joy, that you be LIKE-MIND, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through STRIFE or VAINGLORY; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. LOOK NOT every man on his OWN things, but every man also on the things of OTHERS. (Philippians 2:1-4).

We in Christ are not to LOOK at fellow Christians in their OWN things, but in our collective wealth. That is, no one in Christ should LACK because he or she is spiritually or materially POOR, because he or she needs will me MET by those who are spiritually or materially RICH in Christ. True!

I believe that is why the Disciples of Jesus Christ in the early days of the Church practiced COMMONWEALTH, where every genuine followers share what they have to meet the needs of other believers. And there was none lacking anything among them. True! (Acts 2:36-47; Acts 4:31-37).


But today it is different because:

1. Many of us wants to LOOK LIKE the people of the World. So sad, so bad!

2. Many of us wants to SHOW we are better than the other person. So sad, so bad!

3. Many of us are so SELF-CENTERED and SELFISH. So sad, so bad!

4. Many of us are GREEDY and never CONTENTED. So sad, so bad!

5. Many of us are so LUST DRIVEN than love driven. So sad, so bad!

And so on.

Can we all repent and return back to God and start sharing His love by sharing our various grace in terms of personality, possessions, position, power, popularity, purpose, etc to assist one another in Christ specifically and humanity in general?

Many of us in Christ today have forgotten WHO we are in Christ in this World. Many have forgotten they are part of a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, HOLY nation and a PECULIAR people in Christ on the Earth to SHOWFORTH the praise (GLORY) of Him (God) who has called us from DARKNESS into in His LIGHT. Many in Christ have become more worldly than some people of the World. So sad, so bad! (1 Peter 2:9,10; Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5).

What use is our days in Christ on Earth without impacting the lives of others with what we have being given by God in Christ in this World? What use?

We have forgotten that Jesus Christ said that:

1. We should lay up our treasures in Heaven, not on Earth by spending and sharing our possessions with the poor, needy, etc. (Matthew 6:19-21; Matthew 25:31-46).

2. We do unto others what we want others do to us. (Matthew 7:12).

3. We should take the gospel of salvation through Him (Jesus Christ) to all creature in nations of the World. (Mark 16:14-20).

John the Baptist told those who heed to his repentance call from their sin to give away one of the two things they had to someone that have none to show or proof their true repentance. (Luke 3:7-11).

Many genuine Christians today do NOT know that Bible reveals that pure Christianity religion is thus:

PURE RELIGION and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to VISIT the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to KEEP himself unspotted from the world. (James 1:27).

You and I must NOT forget that as we expect our God and heavenly Father to give us a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and a glorious 2018:

1. He (God) also has a need and expectation to see His spiritually or materially POOR Children in Christ needs MET by His spiritually or materially RICH Children in Christ in this World. True! (Matthew 25:31-46; Galatians 6:7-10; Romans 15:1-7).

Take note, take heed!

2. He (God) also has a need and expectation to see His message of salvation through Jesus Christ SPREAD to every nook and cranny of the World by the prosperity of His Children in Christ in this World. True! (Mark 16:14-20; Acts 1:8).

Take note, take heed!

It is well with us all in Christ in this age!

We all should always remember that when we make the needs of God our Father a focus in our lives, He will make our own needs His focus as well. True! (James 4:1-5; 1 John 2:15-17; Luke 18:18-30).

2018...our year of TESTIMONY.

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (18)!

1. I am the true VINE, and my Father is the HUSBANDMAN.

2. Every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away: and every branch that bears fruit, he PURGES it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

3. Now ye are CLEAN through the WORD which I have spoken unto you.

4. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch CANNOT bear fruit of itself, except it ABIDE in the Vine; no more can you, except you abide in me.

5. I am the Vine, you are the BRANCHES: He that abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for WITHOUT me you can do nothing.

6. If a man abide NOT in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

7. If ye abide IN me, and my WORDS abide IN you, ye shall ASK what you will, and it shall be DONE unto you.

8. Herein is my Father GLORIFIED, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be my disciples. (John 15:1-8).

From the above scriptural passage, JESUS CHRIST using a vine tree as an illustration made us to understand that:

1. He is the VINE TREE itself that gives life to the branches.

2. We in Him (Christ) are the Vine tree's BRANCHES.

3. His (our) Father is the HUSBANDMAN that owns and manages the Vine tree.

What a good and great privilege to be under the LOVE and CARE of the Owner of Heaven and Earth! (1 Peter 5:6,7).

But, I am sent to you today who is genuinely in Christ (Vine tree) to remind you that:

1. If you truly desire to experience a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and glorious 2018, you as a divine BRANCH in the Vine tree (Christ) must consciously and consistently ABIDE in the Vine tree (Christ) by allowing His written and spoken WORD abide in you.

That is, you must consciously and consistently study the Word of God until the Words of Christ dwells RICHLY in you in all wisdom. True! (2 Timothy 2:15; Colossians 3:16,17).

Jesus Christ revealed that it is ONLY when you abide in Him by His Word abiding in you that you can bear fruit and your request will be answered. True!

Take note, take heed!

2. If you truly desire to experience a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and glorious 2018, you as a divine BRANCH in the Vine tree (Christ) must consciously and consistently BEAR fruit, so that you will be PURGED(clean) more and more by the Word of God by our Husbandman (God the Father) to bear more fruit.

This means that if you truly want more revelation of GOD and renewing (cleansing) of your spirit, soul (mind) and body through His WORD, you have to LEARN how to use what you have KNOW in Christ to produce fruits or results par time. True! (Matthew 13:18-23; Romans 12:1,2; James 1:22-25; Philippians 4:8,9).

Jesus Christ revealed that you spiritually dry up and finally dies, when you do not abide in Him by His Word abiding in you. True!

Take note, take heed!

3. If you truly desire to experience a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and glorious 2018, you as a divine BRANCH in the Vine tree (Christ) must  consciously and consistently BEAR fruit, if not the Husbandman (God the Father) will TAKE you away. God forbids!

That is, you must consciously and consistently bear the fruit of righteousness in terms of fruit of the SPIRIT, fruit of SOULS and fruit of your SPECIFIC PURPOSE (walk and work) in Christ in this World. True! (Galatians 5:16-26; Hebrews 12:1-14; James 5:7,8; John 17:1-5; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21; 2 Timothy 4:5-8; 1 Corinthians 3:6-15; Colossians 4:17).

Take note, take heed!

JESUS CHRIST revealed that it only in our bearing fruit in this World that our Father is GLORIFIED through our lives on Earth and truly His DISCIPLES in this World. (Matthew 5:13-16).

JESUS CHRIST revealed that WITHOUT Him you can do nothing. That is, you can not become or achieve anything on Earth as a Child of God in Him in this World. True!

Are you consciously and consistently abiding in JESUS CHRIST by allowing His Word to dwell richly in you enough to inspire and influence your relationship, choices and decisions to please God the Father daily? (2 Corinthians 6:14-18; 1 John :215-17).

Are you truly the DISCIPLE of Jesus Christ before men on Earth? If not, check your WALK and WORK with God!

Are you consciously and consistently bearing the fruit of the SPIRIT in Christ? If not, check your WALK with God! (Galatians 5:16-26).

Are you consciously and consistently bearing the fruit of the SOULS in Christ? If not, check your WALK and WORK with God! (2 Corinthians 5:17-21).

Are you consciously and consistently bearing the fruit of your SPECIFIC PURPOSE in Christ? If not, check your WALK and WORK with God! (1 Corinthians 3:6-15).

If you do, you will by the MERCY, GRACE and FAITHFULNESS of God the Father have a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and a glorious 2018 (in Jesus name). This is because WALKING and WORKING with God isn't INSTANT GRATIFICATION, but a process of GROWTH that leads to amazing and miraculous things. (Hebrews 4:16; 1 Thessalonians 5:24).

2018...our year of TESTIMONY.

God bless you.

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (17)!

SCRIPTURE TO REMEMBER NOW FOR A GLORIOUS 2018 (17)!

No man can SERVE two masters: for either he will HATE the one, and LOVE the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You CANNOT serve God and mammon. Therefore I say unto you, take NO thought for your life, what you shall EAT, or what you shall DRINK; nor yet for your body, what you shall PUT ON. Is not the LIFE more than meat, and the BODY than raiment? BEHOLD the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And WHY take you thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O you of LITTLE FAITH?  Therefore take NO thought, saying, what shall we eat? Or, what shall we drink? Or wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father KNOWS that you have need of all these things. But SEEK you FIRST the KINGDOM of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be ADDED unto you. Take therefore NO thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.  (Matthew 6:24-34).

From the above scriptural passage:

1. JESUS CHRIST, our ultimate role model for living a victorious and glorious life that pleases God in this World, Himself informed us NOT to think or worry of what to EAT, what to DRINK and what to WEAR like the unbelievers daily do and drives all they pursue in this life. True! Take note, take heed!

2. JESUS CHRIST Himself informed us to see and consider that God, our loving and caring heavenly Father, knows that we needs the basic things of life (food, drink and cloth). That if He feeds the birds of the air and clothes the flowers of the field, who do not sow or reap and who we are far more important than, we should be less assure, He (God) will feeds and cloth us, His beloved Children is in Christ in this World. True! Take note, take heed!

3. JESUS CHRIST informed us our LIFE on Earth is more than food and our BODY more than CLOTHES. Therefore, we should NOT spend all our precious and priceless chasing after how we will eat, drink or cloth ourselves and family members in this World. That is, living and pursuing daily, weekly and yearly after material things. True! Take note, take heed! (1 John 2:15-17).

4. JESUS CHRIST Himself informed us to live par day, not par week, par month or year as the World does. However, Jesus Christ teaches us preparation, which means, you can plan ahead, but don't live ahead. True! Take note, take heed! (Matthew 6:24; Luke 14:28-32).

5. JESUS CHRIST Himself informed us that due to LACK of FAITH or LITTLE FAITH we do not believe that God our loving and caring Father will meet our (His Children) needs timely and miraculously in this World. True! Take note, take heed! (1 Peter 5:6-10).

This means that if you truly want God to give you a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and a glorious 2018 according to His own Way and Will,

1.  You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the MANNERS (trends) of the World to live your life (in Christ in 2018) in this World. True! (Romans 12:1,2).

2. You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the WAYS of the World to carry out your activities (in Christ in 2018) in this World. True! (1 John 2:15-17).

3. You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the PRINCIPLES of the World to guide your affairs (in Christ in 2018) in this World. True! (Colossians 2:8-10).

4. You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the TRADITIONS of the World to influence your living (in Christ in 2018) in this World. True! (Colossians 2:8-10).

5. You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the PHILOSOPHIES of the World to inspire your thinking and speaking (in Christ in 2018) in this World. True! (Colossians 2:8-10).

6. You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the IDEAS of the World to inform your choice making and decision taking (in Christ in 2018) in this World. True! (1 Corinthians 3:18-20).

7. You will need to increase your FAITH level in Christ based on His Word and don't LOVE and SEEK the deceitful RICHES of the World to meet your needs (in Christ in 2018) in this World.  (Philippians 4:19; 1 Timothy 6:6-12).

But rather you LOVE and SEEK FIRST the KINGDOM of GOD (the presence and power of the Holy Spirit) and RIGHTEOUSNESS in terms of:

1. The FRUIT of the Holy Spirit of Christ that is within you in this World.. (Galatians 5:16-26).

2. The GIFT of the Holy Spirit of Christ that is within you in this World.. (1 Corinthians 12)

3. The TUTORSHIP of the Holy Spirit of Christ that is within you in this World. ((1 John 2:27).

4. The LEADERSHIP of the Holy Spirit of Christ that is within you in this World. (Romans 8:14; Galatians 5:18).

5. HELP and COMFORT of the Holy Spirit of Christ that is within you in this World. (Romans 8:26,28; Philippians 1:19; Philippians 4:13; John 14:16-20).

And EVERY other thing of the World you need to fulfill your days and destiny on Christ will be ADDED unto you. True!

It is also unfortunate that many genuine Christians finds the supernatural-grace way of thinking, speaking and living in Christ without fear and worries about their basic needs, an impossible lifestyle for them in this World. So sad, so bad!

It is unfortunate also that many genuine Christians who desire God to give a peaceful, PROSPEROUS and a glorious 2018 and are currently fasting and praying to Him, are LOVING and SEEKING other things and not the KINGDOM of GOD (the Presence and Power of the Holy Spirit) and His righteousness. So sad, so bad!

It will interest you to know that ALL that you need in Christ in this World to live out your divine days and destiny in Christ in this World are already OBTAINED in Christ for you who is in Him in this World. True! (Read Revelation 5:8-12; Ephesians 1:3-7).

Therefore, all you need to do in 2018 is to LOVE and SEEK the KINGDOM of GOD (the Presence and Power of the Holy Spirit) daily, His tutorship and leadership and OBEDIENTLY follow Him by making your choices and taking your decisions based on His guidance, timely and miraculously, EVERY other thing you need in this World will be ADDED unto you.  It is called living by GRACE. It works! True! (1 John 2:27; Romans 8:14,26,27; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16).

I live by GRACE and not WORK, you too can live by grace. It works! That is, thinking, speaking and living by the TUTORSHIP, LEADERSHIP and HELP of the HOLY SPIRIT of Christ that within you in this World, in making your choices and taking your decisions. That is daily putting or positioning yourself (your thinking, speaking and doing) based on the inspired Word of God and influence of His Spirit that within you. True! (Romans 4; 1Corinthians 2:9-16; Philippians 4:13,19).

That is the way we are CREATED, CUSTOMIZED and COMFORTED in Christ as new creatures of God in Christ, to LIVE in this World. That is the way you can truly have a peaceful, prosperous and a glorious 2018. True! (Ephesians 2:8-10).

Take note, take heed!

Welcome to a good and great week of signs and wonders!

2018...our year of TESTIMONY.

God bless you.
