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.
