Isaiah
Isaiah 1
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 124The soul acquires spiritual immunity by spiritual understanding; by understanding what the Lord has said or is saying. While doing so, we would realize we have no past that isn’t useful in God’s hand, no teething present challenge that isn’t worth rejoicing about, and a future that should see us become comforters to many as long as we truly and fully entrust it in God’s hands.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 39The leading of the Spirit is a leading against a life of ours which is of no use to us and to others, so we can acquire a life from above that would be of use to ourselves and to others; even an anointed life called Christ, that empowers whoever truly subscribe to it to gradually comprehend and inherit God.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 18Conflicting definitions of blessings littering the earth has caused many believers to lose touch with the true definition of blessing which was only revealed in the New Testament. We were added to the church/saved (Acts 2:47/13:48) – for one purpose – to be fully saved which is to inherit eternal life or to have the Father and Son or to be truly blessed.
- PEEPING INTO 2017 – WHAT CAN WE DEDUCE BY THE HELP OF THE SPIRIT?Things that are truly new have two common denominators – they share in God’s purpose and they are received via customized learning experiences that always end up raising men to become custodians of the future civilization of truth (Jn. 16:13h).
Isaiah 4
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 124The soul acquires spiritual immunity by spiritual understanding; by understanding what the Lord has said or is saying. While doing so, we would realize we have no past that isn’t useful in God’s hand, no teething present challenge that isn’t worth rejoicing about, and a future that should see us become comforters to many as long as we truly and fully entrust it in God’s hands.
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 13).The following are inspired thoughts I found grace to fetch, while celebrating the word of righteousness and attempting to acknowledge the truth that would birth in us – the hope of eternal life.
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 1).The measure to which we are awake to God’s righteousness; even via the preaching and keeping of the gospel of Christ, is the measure to which we would become unresponsive to sin (unrighteousness); and to that degree would we be able to deny sin (this world), until doing so becomes a natural delight (1Cor. 15:34, 1Jn. 5:27, Ps. 119:47).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith)Part 103The Christian Faith is so precious; that, when the design or pressures around this present world makes food and raiment the only thing constant or available, and leaves all other things (necessitates) as variables, a believer who is constantly being fed with the faith that is in Christ should be willing to hold unto that life and be fully purified by it until he crosses into the seasons where the hope of eternal life would be gradually made tangible to him (Ps. 110:3, 1Tim. 6:8, 1Pet. 1:22).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 93Faith, hope and Charity are dimensions in Christ where we break our agreements with this world and thereby fetch true riches. They are seasons of being empowered to understand Christ, through obedience to the Faith; until we are born as children in the Kingdom (Rom. 16:25-26, 1Jn. 2:12).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 81To change a man’s hope, ministers of the word of righteousness have to carefully and consistently paint the hope of the gospel to them, until Christ becomes their new captivity; like the world once was. The world says we need more money, but the gospel says we need to use our time differently, so we can fetch (more) grace; live supernaturally, engage the forces of heaven in all our affairs and thereby enjoy more of heaven on earth than many carnal believers who are in heaven.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 77Following Jesus includes following His footsteps that saw Him use: the warmth; imperfections; weaknesses; forwardness; wickedness and folly of different men to grow up spiritually and then divinely; such that He became the Christ and then the Son of God. The light in the epistles remains our only guarantee of freedom from the grip of money and from the influence of the arrangement of this world.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 73The world is the first philosophy of gain – known or learnt by almost every soul. So one of the essence of the gospel of Christ is to facilitate our escape from the strong captivities of this world, even such that uses man’s legitimate needs to enslave him.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 72Our peace is meant to come from bearing the cross of Christ that promises to crucify the world within and without us (Gal. 5:24/6:14). Take away that same philosophy of gain, away from the Church by the preaching of the gospel, and she would evolve in beauty and glory (Isa. 4:2).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 64What the light of the epistles seek to do, is to help all men as it exposes to them, the actual hope designed for their souls which is meant to anchor our souls on our voyage/journey back to God. It enlightens us on how to place the right value on the economy/lifestyle that Christ’s faith offers, so they can become free from the grip/influence of this world and of things present; and also free to serve or truly love the Lord (1Cor. 6:12, Lk. 1:74).
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)- part 46.One painful reality that is known to angels and to the Godhead, but unknown to most believers over generations, is the act of taking far too little out of trying times and seasons, or of not truly profiting with a trial of faith which is always meant to birth something enduring and eternal in us. The laws of sin and death would continue to feed fat on our fears of tomorrow, as long as we haven’t been equipped by the Faith of the Son to take our eyes off men, off things and off ourselves.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 33Nothing stands between our past and future like unbelief, and even after the workings of the mystery of Christ has been unveiled to us, unbelief will still show up, reason with us, and beg to be entertained like it did to Adam in Eden, to spiritually mature brethren like the Hebrew Church, and to our Lord Jesus while heading for the Cross (Heb. 3:12). So we need to also learn and understand the name/nature/mystery of the Father, and of God, to become fully immune to and overcome unbelief (Col. 2:2, Matt. 28:19).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 31One thing the devil is offering every man is this world, one thing he wants is our soul. One thing God is offering believers, is eternal life.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 19Waiting to acquire life first has always been the toughest and wisest thing to do – because of our common adversary. So waiting was (and remains) a culture of the Spirit that men laid down their lives for – and became the elders/sons of God of their day (Gen. 6:2/Lk. 3:38/Rom. 8:14-19/Heb. 11:4-7/Rev. 12:11).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 18Conflicting definitions of blessings littering the earth has caused many believers to lose touch with the true definition of blessing which was only revealed in the New Testament. We were added to the church/saved (Acts 2:47/13:48) – for one purpose – to be fully saved which is to inherit eternal life or to have the Father and Son or to be truly blessed.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 15So only the thoughts OF God (Rom. 1:17) can handle and overcome every other thought that is morally sound, intellectually appealing and religiously correct but yet spiritually infirm. Righteousness remains an abundant commodity of the throne though scarce in the church and on earth, because we are yet to place the right premium on it – we don’t seek it like we seek things that have commercial value!
Isaiah 5
Isaiah 6
- A Closer Look @ Iniquity – Part 4A believer, who will overcome iniquity, is one who has to excel in judging himself daily like Paul did; one who will acknowledge that he still has unknown tendencies to respond to his own lust (iniquity), because he is yet to totally disown corruption or become incorruptible, even by fully partaking of the divine nature (Acts 24:16, Jas. 1:14, 2Pet. 1:4)
- Urgency for Everlasting Life – Part 4Going into perfection is moving into a season of a higher obedience, where we use the light of love rather than use the light of faith. The knowledge of salvation, or of the truth that is in the Father, or of the unknown, is the only prescription for this, for therein is the comfort of the true light that would help us see the end of all things.
Isaiah 7
- A Closer Look @ Loving Not This World (Sin) Until We Can Truly Hate It – Part 1The everlasting gospel was therefore given to help us to perfect the act and art of hating this world, even as we completely love the truth that is in the Father (Heb. 5:14, 1Jn. 5:4-5, 2Jn. 1:1-4).
- Timely Precepts On Loving Not The World – Part 1The everlasting gospel was therefore given to help us perfect the act and art of hating this world, even as we completely love the truth that is in the Father.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 36Elohim is both the God and Father of our Lord Jesus (Eph. 1:17), and wants to become exactly that to us. Satan was and remains a FATHER OF LIARS and God’s answer to him are FATHERS OF TRUTH (Jn. 8:44/Rev. 22:15f/2Jn. 1:1-4).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 28I have no iota of doubt that one fervent desire that always resonate in the heart of God is to raise believers to become citizens of the New Heaven, and the only way this can be wrought is by gradually imparting the same righteousness to their souls that was instantaneously imparted into their human spirit when it was quickened from the dead. So God’s original intent from the foundation of the world was to raise man with his own fabric of righteousness – the Righteousness OF God that would cause man to judge exactly like he does.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 2The tree of the knowledge of good and evil has the ability to lead a soul from sin to death(E). The tree of life has the ability to wean(F) a believer from the popular faith in the church today (faith towards God), lead him/her through God’s Faith(G) and also mature him/her in God’s Love.
Isaiah 8
Isaiah 9
- A Closer Look @ Iniquity – Part 2Iniquity remains a hidden infirmity until it is awoken by the prospects of exaltation or of honour and glory around things that can impact our person, name, or image before men (Gen. 4:17/11:1-4; Jn. 12:43). Being faithful with another man’s business by serving until we are saved from ourselves is one of the Father’s prescriptions to deal with iniquity within our members (Lk. 16:10-13).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 19Waiting to acquire life first has always been the toughest and wisest thing to do – because of our common adversary. So waiting was (and remains) a culture of the Spirit that men laid down their lives for – and became the elders/sons of God of their day (Gen. 6:2/Lk. 3:38/Rom. 8:14-19/Heb. 11:4-7/Rev. 12:11).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 1The Faith of the Son of God therefore remains a crucial provision of the New Testament that chastens the sinful nature in us and judges every common ground we share with this world (1Jn. 2:15). The Love of God is the final provision that would quicken us to overcome the wicked one and make us become invincible to him.
Isaiah 11
- Introduction to the Word of Righteousness – Part 6There is a Word that serves as the spiritual means to connect those who have used the milk expression of faith with the strong meat expression of faith (the word of God). That Word is called The Word of Righteousness.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 122.The triune teaching in Christ are the enlightenments on Faith, Hope and Charity. They are to purify our souls-so we thereby escape the corruption of this world; so we are prepared for seasons when corruption would be fully overcome: seasons when God would become our God (1Pet. 1:22, 2Pet. 1:4, Rev. 3:12).
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 116.Whenever we don’t fully recover from an unfavourable or painful experience, we won’t be able to respond to God from certain regions of our heart—until we keep the commandments or comforts of faith and love concerning it. As we see through the veil of peace that this world gives, journeying to inherit the peace of the Kingdom would become our new goal and meditation!
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 115.The more we can see things through the eyes or light constituted in Christ and God, the more tangible God’s righteousness would become – and the more peace of mind we would have. The peace found in Christ is a spiritually tangible commodity.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 114.Seasons where nothing seems to be working outwardly are when the Lord wants to expose our fears and make us secured in Christ. Only then can we walk with the light of the fear of the Lord and seek to be eternally secured with God or with the fullness of His life (Deu. 8:2, Isa. 11:2-3, Eph. 3:17-20).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 16).The following are inspired thoughts around how soon sin can be quarantined; musings on how the faith (that has been authorized for use in sinful flesh) can reign like fear presently does. God is bringing every serious or sincere believer to a place where they primarily do one thing: seek first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness; and to a season where every other goal in life would queue behind that of seeking first the Kingdom (Matt. 6:33).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 13).The following are inspired thoughts I found grace to fetch, while celebrating the word of righteousness and attempting to acknowledge the truth that would birth in us – the hope of eternal life.
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 10).What makes a man potentially great in the sight of God is not anything that a natural man can seek, acquire or achieve (1Cor. 2:14, Heb. 11:16). Rather, it is what God has to help a man to seek by enlightening him on His great and precious promises; promises inherited for the first time by the man Christ Jesus; precious promises that can enable a man to inherit the light of God – eternally (Gen. 12:1, 2Pet. 1:3-4, Rev. 21:23-24).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 7).The legitimate cares of this present life has been designed in a way and manner that most men would end up seeking it (food, clothing, shelter) at the expense of true life/inheritance (Christ). Such is the empowerment being offered by the gospel of Christ and God; whereby we can excel in doing the will of God because we are dead to or separated from the will of man.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith)Part 104The faith that is in Christ Jesus is the provision that keeps changing our sight; even to a place where we can comprehend God or judge like He does (Isa. 11:3, Jn. 7:24). Heaven wants to see how long we can hold unto faith (Christ), and under what situations we would do otherwise, because that would inform if they can ultimately unveil the Father to us, or commit into our trust, our eternal inheritance (1Pet. 1:9).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 95Unbelief always set in whenever we stare long enough on a mountain or problem, rather than stare long enough on the word or the commandments governing that issue or expectation; or whenever we (unlike the fowls of the air) take thoughts for our life or for tomorrow.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 93Faith, hope and Charity are dimensions in Christ where we break our agreements with this world and thereby fetch true riches. They are seasons of being empowered to understand Christ, through obedience to the Faith; until we are born as children in the Kingdom (Rom. 16:25-26, 1Jn. 2:12).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 91The day that a believer dares to start living in the sight of the Lord is the day he starts counting as losses, things that were gain to him while he was in love with this world; while on a self-seeking adventure with the life-draining life that exists without (or outside) Christ (Phil. 3:7).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 84The Lord is presently raising an army on earth! The sound doctrine of His faith is their watchword; it is the sound or alarm that gathers them (Eph. 4:13a).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 67The greatest hope that a believer can/should have today, is that of inheriting God’s life or of bringing it into his flesh (Tit. 1:1-2/3:7, Rom. 5:2b). The greatest lifetime thanksgiving that should accompany this, is concerning the opportunity given to us to hear the voice of the Son of God on this so great inheritance.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 64What the light of the epistles seek to do, is to help all men as it exposes to them, the actual hope designed for their souls which is meant to anchor our souls on our voyage/journey back to God. It enlightens us on how to place the right value on the economy/lifestyle that Christ’s faith offers, so they can become free from the grip/influence of this world and of things present; and also free to serve or truly love the Lord (1Cor. 6:12, Lk. 1:74).
- Looking Inward and Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 59To keep our hearts from everything that can cause it to lose life, we have to guard it against every effort of the enemy to reach it through the dictates of our natural senses; primarily, via our eyes and ears. This demands the constant use of the breastplate of faith and love to shield our hearts from every thought and imagination of the devil, so we can focus on the dictates of the Spirit of God through our spirit, and thereby appreciate in the formation of the mind of Christ in our soul.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 51.But the knowledge of salvation inspires us to be meek; it calls us to a soul-saving repentance that should see us become meek and ultimately meek and lowly at heart (1Cor. 8:1-2, 2Cor. 10:12, Lk. 1:77, Eph. 4:1-2). He is as close to being helped the day he realizes that the worship of mammon, through the love of this world, is the primary competition to the true worship of God (Matt. 6:19-24, Jam. 4:4, 1 John 2:15-17)
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 34Not all believers have started to live in the sight of God. The warfare of the Christian faith is actually that of comprehension; that of exercising our inward eyes and ears, which are developed while learning Christ until we come to a place where we are made quick to see and judge as Christ once did at Jordan, and as He did as a full blown Son of God.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 33Nothing stands between our past and future like unbelief, and even after the workings of the mystery of Christ has been unveiled to us, unbelief will still show up, reason with us, and beg to be entertained like it did to Adam in Eden, to spiritually mature brethren like the Hebrew Church, and to our Lord Jesus while heading for the Cross (Heb. 3:12). So we need to also learn and understand the name/nature/mystery of the Father, and of God, to become fully immune to and overcome unbelief (Col. 2:2, Matt. 28:19).
- Looking Inward Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 6When we attempt to look at others with the eyes or enlightenment of Charity, we would see differently! Light is sweet to the eyes, and also is liberty to a soul whose warfare over a season has just been accomplished.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 10So the actual answer to our desires is in our souls becoming a new creation – not in corruptible things remaining new.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 6The strength and blessedness of the New Testament is hinged on resurrection, and the goal of resurrection is to raise man from an estate called flesh (1Pet. 1:24) to one where a believer’s soul is seated with God!
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 4We can receive, internalize and naturalize with the Light called Christ such that He becomes our personal possession, and this is the goal of the New Testament. In a nutshell, we need our first spiritual eyes called Wisdom and Understanding (Eph. 1:18/Col. 1:9c/Prov. 7:4)
- ANOTHER LOOK @ THE ESSENCE OF SONSHIP – Part 37The first “thing” and/or the first “land” that God wanted his true lovers to own, inherit or be rewarded with was God. Man was to inherit God and God was to inherit man, a process that is to be facilitated by the Holy Spirit who also supervises the addition of other things.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 34God is committed to this cause of making us in His image and Likeness – the true man, and he has been blessing his saints with an unusual thirst for waters of life like never before.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – PART 30So God took upon himself for the first time, the responsibility of fathering a son; a pattern son that would bodily bear his image and attain the fullness of his glory (Col. 2:9/Heb. 1:3). The price tag was very high as the trinity for the first time in eternity would be incomplete without the fellowship of God The Word!
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 17The greatest battle takes place within the soul of man daily; the fight to allow God’s light find an entrance into the soul while simultaneously disallowing the influx of darkness in whatever form it takes, whether it comes “in the name of Christianity”, philosophy, religion, intellectualism or humanism. We must hasten to receive Christ’s Faith and God’s Love which would lead to the enemy’s undoing within us and without us.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 16Sin finally scored a trans-generational goal when it taught men to perennially SEEK GOD FOR THINGS (that perish with the use) at the expense of SEEKING GOD FOR HIS TREASURED LIFE! Seeking God for God demands all our heart, strength and mind.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 12There is a nature in God that is strictly prophetic, and every true child of God that would attain Sonship in the New Testament would have to be raised by this nature. The secret of overcomers in the early church (starting from the Apostles) was this nature.
- THE BEAUTY OF NOT KNOWING ‘WHAT NEXT?’ – PART 4The earth is therefore urgently in need of a new breed of powerful believers who would take a deep look into the law and into the perfect law of Liberty; even those who’ll thoroughly believe it until they can’t believe anything else! MAN WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE IN CONTROL OF HIS LIFE – GOD WAS AND IS MEANT TO!
- Introduction To The Gospel That Belongs To Christ – Part 4The singular motive of the Gospel of Christ is to ultimately grant believers access to partake of the Righteousness of God, the Peace of God and the Joy of the Lord. May we be foolish enough before the world to embrace the actual gospel of Christ while it is available to us, amen.
- Introduction To The Gospel That Belongs To Christ – Part 2The actual Gospel of Christ unveils God through teachings that reveal Christ (Rom. 16:25b/Eph. 3:3-4) that helps believers in their journey back to The Father (Jn. 13:3)! As churches begin to open their doors to it, the present emphasis on various subjects would change and God’s Glorious/Eternal Power would be unlocked and sons (matured saints) would be born.
- Introduction To The Gospel That Belongs To Christ – Part 1The Gospel was initially the Gospel of God (Rom. 1:1). It was God’s Treasured Possession before heaven, earth or man was created.
Isaiah 13
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 132A meek man is one who has been led through seasons and taught not to judge, do or say anything of his own, but to constantly live by the strength of God’s grace and in His sight. Meekness remains a violent instrument against the kingdoms of this world.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 11The gospel of Christ empowers believers to live according to a life that is higher than corruption and superior to the wisdom driving this world; a life that is strictly inspired by things above, things beyond the hearing of the ears and the sight of natural eyes. If we would inherit the same of crown of righteousness that Paul made reference to in 2Tim. 4:8, then we would have to walk by the same spirit of faith like he did, endure the reproaches that accompanies Christ’s riches and appreciate in our inward (soul) state.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 8Creation is beholding men being cultured with the separated life that Adam failed to partake of, men that are increasingly jealous of this life that they have agreed with the Lord that it is their true life and they must inherit it in the days of their flesh. Heaven and earth no doubt don’t share the same definition or interpretation of riches and of poverty.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 22The hope of the gospel is to make us good; to make us much more precious than Gold in God’s sight (Isa. 13:12/1Pet. 1:7). Good men are made when Christ has preached himself (what makes him glad) to them and may this be our portion, amen.
- Doing SOMETHING & Doing NOTHING – Part 3The Lord Jesus manifested and enjoyed so much of the supernatural because HE SUBJECTED HIMSELF TO THE LEADING OF THE SPIRIT! Nothing but “ALL OF GOD” would either bring us “FULLNESS OF JOY” or make us “TURN THE WORLD RIGHT SIDE UP“.
Isaiah 14
- The Eternal Dividends of Submission — Part 1Submission at all levels remains a vital prescription for weeding out or overcoming hidden natures in us; especially priestly sins like guile, envy, malice, hypocrisies, and evil speaking. The shortcut to this is by delighting in the demands of submission, even until we can both see this world and iniquity within, in its true colors.
- A Closer Look @ Loving Not This World (Sin) Until We Can Truly Hate It – Part 1The everlasting gospel was therefore given to help us to perfect the act and art of hating this world, even as we completely love the truth that is in the Father (Heb. 5:14, 1Jn. 5:4-5, 2Jn. 1:1-4).
- A Closer Look @ Iniquity – Part 3Excelling in the act and art of submission to spiritual authority should someday help us get it right where the devil once got it wrong, so we can overcome an angelic problem called iniquity that the everlasting gospel is presently healing many from (Ezek. 28:15-16, Isa. 14:13-14, Rev. 22:2b).
- Timely Precepts On Loving Not The World – Part 1The everlasting gospel was therefore given to help us perfect the act and art of hating this world, even as we completely love the truth that is in the Father.
- Urgency for Everlasting Life – Part 3Iniquity is a high wisdom that can inspire even a spiritual man to keep a life that he is meant to hate, and thereafter, inherit the throne of God. The gospel of everlasting life that guarantees that honourable lifestyle is back again, it will keep us focused on seeking first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness—until we inherit what Jesus inherited (God).
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 120.A believer hasn’t really surrendered his life to Christ-as long as he hasn’t truly surrendered the worldly life within his soul. The doctrine of Christ empowers us to do so; to thereby become kings of Righteousness and peace (Lk. 12:15-31, 1Tim. 6:3, Heb. 7:2)
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 81To change a man’s hope, ministers of the word of righteousness have to carefully and consistently paint the hope of the gospel to them, until Christ becomes their new captivity; like the world once was. The world says we need more money, but the gospel says we need to use our time differently, so we can fetch (more) grace; live supernaturally, engage the forces of heaven in all our affairs and thereby enjoy more of heaven on earth than many carnal believers who are in heaven.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 72Our peace is meant to come from bearing the cross of Christ that promises to crucify the world within and without us (Gal. 5:24/6:14). Take away that same philosophy of gain, away from the Church by the preaching of the gospel, and she would evolve in beauty and glory (Isa. 4:2).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 60By bringing a daily siege and a barrage of distracting thoughts against the mind of a believer whose primary goal is to be a stone in Zion, the devil seeks to discourage us to draw back from the Lord, or to place a low premium on the Faith He authored and finished. The gospel of Christ is what empowers us to do this by enlightening us on the perimeter of Christ’s walk, even His Faith.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 18Conflicting definitions of blessings littering the earth has caused many believers to lose touch with the true definition of blessing which was only revealed in the New Testament. We were added to the church/saved (Acts 2:47/13:48) – for one purpose – to be fully saved which is to inherit eternal life or to have the Father and Son or to be truly blessed.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 13Sin is the first produce of the “good knowledge” of the tree being probed here, which is a product of disobedience to the law of God’s order of Faith. What crucifies the world in us and to us is the cross of Christ – the conversation of His Faith, and any believer that is ashamed of the lifestyle that accompanies this Faith is either openly or secretly in love with this world!
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 12There is a nature in God that is strictly prophetic, and every true child of God that would attain Sonship in the New Testament would have to be raised by this nature. The secret of overcomers in the early church (starting from the Apostles) was this nature.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 9God has called us to seek an inheritance; a life that was never invented! He has and would continue to bless men with wisdom for witty inventions, but believers must be ready to treat them like God treats the works of His hands – “i.e. don’t be attached to them” like God is so unattached to heaven that he wants to “leave heaven”(P) and indwell men that have been decked with true riches/eternal glory.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 7What our heavenly Father continues to expect from us today is a qualitative degree of pleasure that Old Testament faithful couldn’t upload; one that is eternally compliant with truth.
- Becoming SOMEBODY By Becoming NOBODY – Part 3God’s glory only follows the-faith-building-trials-of-Christ (1Pet. 1:11/5:1), and this takes place as we allow the dismantling of the wrong life (disobedience/death/darkness), which we all inherited in the first Adam but have been destroying IN Christ Jesus (2Tim. 1:10).
- Becoming SOMEBODY By Becoming NOBODY – Part 2This knowledge is what would install in us, New Things of God (Rev. 21:5/7), which in turn would make us NOBODY BEFORE THIS OLD CREATION, but gradually and ultimately make us SOMEBODY BEFORE THE NEW CREATION. Such Christ-Like, Child-Like humility is the legal ground that God needs to exalt us with the exaltation that comes with His Righteousness (Prov. 13:34/Phil 2:9).
Isaiah 17
Isaiah 25
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 9).Our greatest need was provided before it ever existed (Rev 13:8b). True security in these days we live in would be a function of how incorruptible we have become or how much of corruption our soul lost; even by the acquisition of divine power (2Pet. 1:3-4).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith)Part 104The faith that is in Christ Jesus is the provision that keeps changing our sight; even to a place where we can comprehend God or judge like He does (Isa. 11:3, Jn. 7:24). Heaven wants to see how long we can hold unto faith (Christ), and under what situations we would do otherwise, because that would inform if they can ultimately unveil the Father to us, or commit into our trust, our eternal inheritance (1Pet. 1:9).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 63It is only while being wholeheartedly enlightened on Christ, even His Faith, that a believer would realize for the first time what his primary and uttermost need in life is, which is to be able to love as God loves, by having the Son and Father find an abode in him. The gospel can go as far as causing us to partake of God’s glory, as long as we can humble ourselves to learn Christ or learn of His inward constitution of lowliness and meekness of heart.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith) – Part 54.One way we can know that the power of God (Christ) is becoming more tangible to us, is when those thoughts that used to unduly earn our attention/meditation, cease to do so; or when things that previously disturbed our peace, lose their potency.
Isaiah 26
- A Closer Look At Delays & Unanswered Prayers — Pt 1.So, many delays and denials to our prayers are actually in our best interest; they preserve our future in God. Our consolation during seasons of seeming delays about God’s promise concerning our natural life should always be that He had already done more than what we can ever expect from Him;
- A Closer Look at Overcoming Fears and Anxiety – Part 2As long as we are deficient in faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and Charity found in Christ, living in fear and anxiety would remain inevitable. Anxiety is always born when we bear burdens that are meant to be laid at the Lord’s feet.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 115.The more we can see things through the eyes or light constituted in Christ and God, the more tangible God’s righteousness would become – and the more peace of mind we would have. The peace found in Christ is a spiritually tangible commodity.
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 10).What makes a man potentially great in the sight of God is not anything that a natural man can seek, acquire or achieve (1Cor. 2:14, Heb. 11:16). Rather, it is what God has to help a man to seek by enlightening him on His great and precious promises; promises inherited for the first time by the man Christ Jesus; precious promises that can enable a man to inherit the light of God – eternally (Gen. 12:1, 2Pet. 1:3-4, Rev. 21:23-24).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 5).No man has really been helped in God’s sight, without being taught how not to take thoughts for his life; thoughts that limits us from becoming childlike at heart. Jesus’ teachings were therefore centered around how to empower men to seek and live from above, while taking thoughts born out of God’s righteousness; words that proceed from the Father’s mouth.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith)-part 108.Faith has a reputation for painting pictures of victory ahead despite our past, and it thereby reassures us that we can still become whom God has called us to be, or attain our full inheritance in Christ Jesus.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 89The righteousness judgments surrounding this faith, also help us to undress all thoughts; to see through their motives and discern those that want to snatch life from us on one hand, while offering us worldly sweets/dainties on the other hand.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 77Following Jesus includes following His footsteps that saw Him use: the warmth; imperfections; weaknesses; forwardness; wickedness and folly of different men to grow up spiritually and then divinely; such that He became the Christ and then the Son of God. The light in the epistles remains our only guarantee of freedom from the grip of money and from the influence of the arrangement of this world.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith) – Part 54.One way we can know that the power of God (Christ) is becoming more tangible to us, is when those thoughts that used to unduly earn our attention/meditation, cease to do so; or when things that previously disturbed our peace, lose their potency.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 38When the peace kept in the gospel becomes the inheritance we seek, ownership of the power kept in the gospel of Christ would become inevitable. The most beautiful and tangible experience the soul of man can have on earth is an adventure of the life being offered by the Christian faith – when sought in its truest and purest form.
- Looking Inward & Outward (With the goggle of Faith) – Part 32There was a dominant thought upon the heart and mind of our Lord Jesus in every hour of His life/walk on earth. That thought/meditation was His Father’s will, which became the food of His soul in no time, and this must someday become ours also.
Isaiah 28
- Introduction To The Word of Righteousness – Part 7There is a Word that reveals God’s standard for living like Jesus did until He attained the victory called our Faith. That Word is called the Word of Righteousness.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 130The goal of the faith of the Son (of God) is to help us live like principalities, powers and rulers of the darkness of this world – don’t exist; it is to help us keep doing so until the mind or age called Christ – is fully formed in us. God has been giving victory over such enemies, to those who have sheepishly followed the faith of the New Testament; those who have taken it as personal as men take monetary matters.
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 18).The Lord is presently raising many servants of righteousness in the Church; those whose first goal in life is to become priests; even kings of Righteousness and peace. What guarantees this separation is the gospel of Christ; the revelations that render sin (i.e. this world) naked; that exposes how it secured our love and trust, how we can break our covenant with it and enter seasons of cutting covenants with the Lord.
- Subject: What is the word of righteousness and why should believers who truly seek to know God – embrace it?The word of righteousness is a biblical doctrine that should be consistently communicated to a believer who has partaken of the foundational aspect of faith or who has been exposed to the elementary principles of milk (basic) faith (Eph. 1:15-17/Isa. 28:9, Heb. 6:1c-2). It is a doctrine (teaching) that enlightens and empowers its hearers on the right and only approved way to live in the flesh (Rom. 1:16-17, Jn. 1:11-12).
- Introduction To The Word of Righteousness (Part 2)That word is called the word of righteousness because (among other things) it prepares believers to gain mastery of the righteousness of faith that is in Christ, so they can comprehend the actual word of God and inherit His genes – His righteousness. This word promises to help believers to inherit Christ and to subsequently have God as the true possession of their soul – even while on earth.
- Introduction To The Word of Righteousness – Part 1There is a word that reveals God’s righteousness (or standard) for living like Christ lived. That word is called the word of righteousness, and interestingly, has been available in the last three decades (Heb. 5:13).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 85Waiting remains a key to being properly raised; waiting until we die to the excitement to manifest or do exploits without being built within; waiting until casualties in life and ministry are grossly minimized; even until Christ is conceived and well developed in the womb of our souls (Jn. 6:28-29/Jn. 1:11-12, Eph. 3:17). Only by the doctrine of Christ, can we discern, deny and gradually disown such thoughts; even until we receive from heaven, a clean bill of divorce from this world (Eph. 4:20, 1Jn. 5:4).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 84The Lord is presently raising an army on earth! The sound doctrine of His faith is their watchword; it is the sound or alarm that gathers them (Eph. 4:13a).
- Looking Inward and Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 79There is no way our motive in life can be right, if – unlike God – our motivation in life isn’t to ultimately make known God’s power and glory. But as the eyes of our heart gets truly enlightened, we would begin a journey that should see us adventure the righteousness, peace and joy of God’s Kingdom; and, thereby, truly enjoy life – in its truest meaning.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 76Whenever Christ is yet to become the source of our soul’s security, a vacuum of insecurity would exist; even such that would see our souls rather consider scenarios that are to our advantage or that won’t make us look vulnerable before others. But when a walk or an accord is selflessly born between parties against all odds; then, heaven (because of an activity of faith) would show up or manifest its presence in our hearts (Matt. 6:10, Lk. 18:8).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 75The earlier He can succeed in doing; even by unveiling Christ to us, the earlier we can be built up to a place where the world can neither unlock our affections nor lead us by dumb idols. The revelation of Christ; even of godliness, is the first “gain” that every soul needs to attain; so it can be empowered to truly seek for God, while living as supernaturally as Christ did.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 74The Faith still being offered by heaven to the elect; even the Faith of God’s elect which is after godliness, has its dividends both in time and eternity. It is God’s power that wants to enable us address our indebtedness of love to the Church, to our nation, to our generation and to others.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 68A carnal or earthly mind is resident in anyone who is more interested in the good things of this present life that God can give, rather than in the good of the gospel, even things with an eternal origin – that God wants to teach him and thereby cause him to ultimately inherit His nature/throne. Christ is the man carrying God’s approval and eternal blessing, so the degree to which we have been tried and have partaken of His life and light, is the degree to which we have become precious in God’s sight.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 57The counsels/commandments of the Lord are non-negotiable; and by our response to them, He determines who really we are or what we love above what He loved/loves, and also called us to love. The dominion over sin is a dominion over thoughts we fall prey to because of what we openly or secretly, knowingly or unknowingly love, even this world.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 16The day we can seamlessly or naturally handle or overcome offence, preeminence, unforgiveness, losses, hurt, animosity – like we see little children do, then can we say we have been converted from being ‘adults’ before God into becoming ‘little children’ who have gained entrance into the Kingdom.
- Looking Inward & Outward (With the goggle of Faith) – Part 11There is a software encoded in Christ’s Faith that would always end up wearing out sin in us! No believer can escape the lustful pull to “build a city and a tower” or to “make a name for himself” or build a kingdom whose king is self if they don’t see themselves as strangers and pilgrims on earth – if they don’t restlessly seek a heavenly country in God – called God!
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 6The strength and blessedness of the New Testament is hinged on resurrection, and the goal of resurrection is to raise man from an estate called flesh (1Pet. 1:24) to one where a believer’s soul is seated with God!
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 2The soul of man is a vessel meant to house the treasure called the light of the knowledge of the glory of God! So in Christ Jesus, we learn to LIVE from above, and while living, we MOVE in the right direction – GODWARD.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 24God therefore uses our so-called delays to separate us from the timing (race) of this present world and also employs the limitations that came via the fall of man (pain, lack, losses, tears, sicknesses and sorrow) to starve us of what we inherited from the first Adam (disobedience).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 14The only way Jesus can unite and fortify believers is to get them to think alike – to think of the same expected end; the Father(H). The only way to do so is to get them to seek the things of others, and the only provision that caters for this is the Faith that was revealed in Jesus; the faith that unites(I) us for a cause that transcends time!
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 5Simply put, there are things in the bible that can be mistaken for Life or Eternal Life, so zealously searching the scriptures doesn’t necessarily translate to finding God’s kind of life. So what Adam forsook on behalf of posterity was the learning of “The Word of God” – and this is the same temptation facing believers and ministers till date, some of who chose to settle for less or settle for various learning around the subject of faith that can’t deal with our depraved nature problem.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 2The tree of the knowledge of good and evil has the ability to lead a soul from sin to death(E). The tree of life has the ability to wean(F) a believer from the popular faith in the church today (faith towards God), lead him/her through God’s Faith(G) and also mature him/her in God’s Love.
- Doing SOMETHING & Doing NOTHING – Part 2I recall afresh that the emphasis of God, not just in New Testament, but also in the Old Testament, has always been “BECOMING“, rather than “DOING“, and this remains the sole duty of man; TO BECOME LIKE HIS SON. Heaven desires to help our helplessness here and it’s left to us to tarry with a less-costly commandment of “Believing In His Name” (i.e. in what the Lord Jesus inherited); a philosophy that punctuated various epistles of Apostle John.
- Introduction To The Gospel That Belongs To Christ – Part 3It may interest you to know that the first owner and the first person to preach the gospel was God (Rom. 1:1), and his first audience was Adam (Gen. 2:16-17). Believers, ministers, you and I need to learn the core aspects of Gospel of God and this curriculum starts when the God succeeds in weaning us (Isa. 28:9) from the preeminent church meals.
Isaiah 30
Isaiah 32
- A Closer Look at Overcoming Fears and Anxiety – Part 1Fears and anxiety are born when we attempt to carnally respond to a righteous expectation or when we can’t trust in the ability of the Lord to bring to pass what He promised. The true painting of the gospel of Christ always inspires a hope that would see us journey into the corridor of godliness; into a season where living with contentment becomes natural, and living in anxieties and fears becomes unnatural.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 117.The Peace of God is an umpire meant to keep our heart and mind focused on attaining our eternal inheritance (God). We can attain it if we resolve to live by the faith of the Son of God; even until we overcome the temptation to settle for anything less than God (Phil. 4:7, 2 Pet. 3:14, Gal. 2:20).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 15).The soul acquires spiritual immunity by spiritual understanding; by understanding what the Lord has said or is saying (1Cor. 14:20, Col. 1:9-10). Only by not counting our lives dear to ourselves or living like those who ended up inheriting eternal life – can we end up being victorious against it or not negotiate with it along the way (1Cor. 15, Acts 20:24, Lk. 14:31-32).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 38When the peace kept in the gospel becomes the inheritance we seek, ownership of the power kept in the gospel of Christ would become inevitable. The most beautiful and tangible experience the soul of man can have on earth is an adventure of the life being offered by the Christian faith – when sought in its truest and purest form.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 33Nothing stands between our past and future like unbelief, and even after the workings of the mystery of Christ has been unveiled to us, unbelief will still show up, reason with us, and beg to be entertained like it did to Adam in Eden, to spiritually mature brethren like the Hebrew Church, and to our Lord Jesus while heading for the Cross (Heb. 3:12). So we need to also learn and understand the name/nature/mystery of the Father, and of God, to become fully immune to and overcome unbelief (Col. 2:2, Matt. 28:19).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 8Creation is beholding men being cultured with the separated life that Adam failed to partake of, men that are increasingly jealous of this life that they have agreed with the Lord that it is their true life and they must inherit it in the days of their flesh. Heaven and earth no doubt don’t share the same definition or interpretation of riches and of poverty.
Isaiah 33
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 96So we will need to be armed with the principles/wisdom of Christ, to use/deal with this world as though we don’t; to be unspotted by it until we beat the princes/wisdom of this world in their ploy (Prov. 8:16, 1Cor. 1:30/2:6-8/7:31).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 34Not all believers have started to live in the sight of God. The warfare of the Christian faith is actually that of comprehension; that of exercising our inward eyes and ears, which are developed while learning Christ until we come to a place where we are made quick to see and judge as Christ once did at Jordan, and as He did as a full blown Son of God.
Isaiah 34
Isaiah 40
- A Closer Look At Delays & Unanswered Prayers — Pt 1.So, many delays and denials to our prayers are actually in our best interest; they preserve our future in God. Our consolation during seasons of seeming delays about God’s promise concerning our natural life should always be that He had already done more than what we can ever expect from Him;
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 114.Seasons where nothing seems to be working outwardly are when the Lord wants to expose our fears and make us secured in Christ. Only then can we walk with the light of the fear of the Lord and seek to be eternally secured with God or with the fullness of His life (Deu. 8:2, Isa. 11:2-3, Eph. 3:17-20).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 14).The following is a tribute to every intending or potential overcomer of sin, who has been given the honour to fight the good fight of faith or who is facing reactions from the gates of hell; even while jealously holding unto the enlightenment of Christ Jesus – the Son of God.
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 11).It will take the feasts (and trials) of the faith of the Son of God to break that yoke; and to empower us to live in God’s sight – like we never imagined (Gal. 2:20, Isa. 55:2-3, Luk. 16:15. Hos. 6:1-3). Nothing is new under the sun but the word of righteousness – moving into hearts and into nations (Hab. 2:14).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the google of Faith) – Part 107Most delays and/or denials to our prayers are therefore actually in our best interest, so that our future in God can be preserved. May we find grace to see and approach prayers in the same way that our Lord Jesus and His apostles did, so we can have their soul-impacting, generation-altering results.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 60By bringing a daily siege and a barrage of distracting thoughts against the mind of a believer whose primary goal is to be a stone in Zion, the devil seeks to discourage us to draw back from the Lord, or to place a low premium on the Faith He authored and finished. The gospel of Christ is what empowers us to do this by enlightening us on the perimeter of Christ’s walk, even His Faith.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 53.Christ has a savor, a sweet smell that the Father has never resisted and likes to smell in virtually every of our conversation under the sun, especially from souls that are being tried, or in whom the world has been experiencing crucifixion. The doctrine of Christ seeks to open up every believer to the Son and Father (2Jn. 1:9, Tit. 2:11-13).
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 47.The Father likes to see that our greatest contentment, desire, pursuit and prayer in life, is to have eternal life, even the same life that committed Jesus to leave the throne for the earth. The only answer to a corrupt life is an incorruptible life and it deserves much more attention than we have given to other legitimate but corrupt-prone chapters of life.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 22The daily and continuous sighting of Christ, or of the hope of the gospel, or of living by God’s Power, would cause Christ to come indwell us by His Faith, and gradually prepare us to someday attain God’s glory. No believer who is overtaken by this pursuit, would be moved or swayed by the cares and anxieties of this present life, and as such, would overcome such
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 19The excitements that the world offers is not a substitute for the joy of the Lord. Submission at all levels remains a vital prescription for weeding out or overcoming hidden natures or priestly infirmities like guile, envy, malice, hypocrisies, and evil speaking.
- Looking Inward & Outward (With the goggle of Faith) – Part 11There is a software encoded in Christ’s Faith that would always end up wearing out sin in us! No believer can escape the lustful pull to “build a city and a tower” or to “make a name for himself” or build a kingdom whose king is self if they don’t see themselves as strangers and pilgrims on earth – if they don’t restlessly seek a heavenly country in God – called God!
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 2A season where we can’t discern God’s expectation for our lives is a potentially wasted season, and one of the prescriptions for this is to meditate on the epistles day and night.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 19Waiting to acquire life first has always been the toughest and wisest thing to do – because of our common adversary. So waiting was (and remains) a culture of the Spirit that men laid down their lives for – and became the elders/sons of God of their day (Gen. 6:2/Lk. 3:38/Rom. 8:14-19/Heb. 11:4-7/Rev. 12:11).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 4We can receive, internalize and naturalize with the Light called Christ such that He becomes our personal possession, and this is the goal of the New Testament. In a nutshell, we need our first spiritual eyes called Wisdom and Understanding (Eph. 1:18/Col. 1:9c/Prov. 7:4)
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 1This is the description of the man in Christ, the corporate Christ that finds grace to trade the genetic makeup of his soul for that of God until he fully learns God – like Jesus did! God has committed unto our generation, the knowledge that saves the soul; the knowledge of the power of God which through Christ’s Faith leads to the salvation of our souls.
- ANOTHER LOOK @ THE ESSENCE OF SONSHIP – Part 37The first “thing” and/or the first “land” that God wanted his true lovers to own, inherit or be rewarded with was God. Man was to inherit God and God was to inherit man, a process that is to be facilitated by the Holy Spirit who also supervises the addition of other things.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 24God therefore uses our so-called delays to separate us from the timing (race) of this present world and also employs the limitations that came via the fall of man (pain, lack, losses, tears, sicknesses and sorrow) to starve us of what we inherited from the first Adam (disobedience).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 20One thing that the Lord Jesus would like us all to see as clearly like he did long before he finished his faith course and overcame the world at the age of 30 is the phenomenon called death. Christ has abolished death, and brought life and immortality to life, and these are they two eternal commodities we are to showcase to nations, tribes, kindred and people, in the days of our flesh.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 13It is a destiny defining moment for believers, when the eyes of their heart receives adequate light to see the emphasis the Lord places on who they are in God’s sight, rather than what they do for Him. The instructions embedded in the epistles are meant to help us carry our cross daily until we can delightfully deny ourselves of things that are lawful or legitimate (our rights/righteousness) and receive things that are advantageous (God’s righteousness).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 8Our understanding of God’s secrets would ultimately determine whether we would ultimately “make it to heaven” or “make it to the father. These are the two soul-states of those who won’t and those who would inherit the true riches/inheritance that has been stored up in Christ Jesus(F)
- Urgent Vacancy For Men of The Future – Part 1The solution to mankind’s problem has long been also packaged in a person; in the Tree of Life – and as far as God is concerned, it’s spiritually illegal to remain fleshy (Gen. 3:3/Jn. 6:54/Rev. 22:2)
Isaiah 43
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 15).The soul acquires spiritual immunity by spiritual understanding; by understanding what the Lord has said or is saying (1Cor. 14:20, Col. 1:9-10). Only by not counting our lives dear to ourselves or living like those who ended up inheriting eternal life – can we end up being victorious against it or not negotiate with it along the way (1Cor. 15, Acts 20:24, Lk. 14:31-32).
- Looking Inward and Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 79There is no way our motive in life can be right, if – unlike God – our motivation in life isn’t to ultimately make known God’s power and glory. But as the eyes of our heart gets truly enlightened, we would begin a journey that should see us adventure the righteousness, peace and joy of God’s Kingdom; and, thereby, truly enjoy life – in its truest meaning.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 15So only the thoughts OF God (Rom. 1:17) can handle and overcome every other thought that is morally sound, intellectually appealing and religiously correct but yet spiritually infirm. Righteousness remains an abundant commodity of the throne though scarce in the church and on earth, because we are yet to place the right premium on it – we don’t seek it like we seek things that have commercial value!
Isaiah 45
Isaiah 49
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 97The gospel is the only thing that has been freely given to man; and that for the profiting of his soul; and it must also be freely given by men to others. Only by the principle of living that was authorized by Christ for use in man’s flesh, can we beat this world and its god.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 76Whenever Christ is yet to become the source of our soul’s security, a vacuum of insecurity would exist; even such that would see our souls rather consider scenarios that are to our advantage or that won’t make us look vulnerable before others. But when a walk or an accord is selflessly born between parties against all odds; then, heaven (because of an activity of faith) would show up or manifest its presence in our hearts (Matt. 6:10, Lk. 18:8).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 11The gospel of Christ empowers believers to live according to a life that is higher than corruption and superior to the wisdom driving this world; a life that is strictly inspired by things above, things beyond the hearing of the ears and the sight of natural eyes. If we would inherit the same of crown of righteousness that Paul made reference to in 2Tim. 4:8, then we would have to walk by the same spirit of faith like he did, endure the reproaches that accompanies Christ’s riches and appreciate in our inward (soul) state.
Isaiah 50
- A Closer Look @ Iniquity – Part 1When our excitement and contentment can primarily be traced to what we are doing for the Lord or around His name, rather than to God’s promise of eternal life; then, there is already a heart issue that iniquity will exploit with time. God and the devil can clearly see how iniquity can work through our human strengths; how it can inspire us to do many things before men and come short of living before God’s eyes.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 34Not all believers have started to live in the sight of God. The warfare of the Christian faith is actually that of comprehension; that of exercising our inward eyes and ears, which are developed while learning Christ until we come to a place where we are made quick to see and judge as Christ once did at Jordan, and as He did as a full blown Son of God.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 8Our understanding of God’s secrets would ultimately determine whether we would ultimately “make it to heaven” or “make it to the father. These are the two soul-states of those who won’t and those who would inherit the true riches/inheritance that has been stored up in Christ Jesus(F)
Isaiah 51
Isaiah 52
- A Closer Look @ The Love of Money – Part 8The love of money has been an age-long cancer of the soul, long before cancer of the body was ever diagnosed. It has left the soul of many believers unhealthy and covetous, and it remains an unarmed robber that has consistently stolen the birthright of many believers, robbing them of their inheritance in Christ and in the Father (1Tim 6:9-10, Lk. 12:15, Eph. 5:5).
- Timely Precepts On Loving Not The World – Part 2The season when our souls locate and abide in a new abode called the doctrine of Christ is the season when we have come over the love for the (old) things that are in this world; things under the influence of the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life (2Jn. 1:9, 2Cor. 5:17, 1Jn. 2:15b).
- Urgency for Everlasting Life – Part 4Going into perfection is moving into a season of a higher obedience, where we use the light of love rather than use the light of faith. The knowledge of salvation, or of the truth that is in the Father, or of the unknown, is the only prescription for this, for therein is the comfort of the true light that would help us see the end of all things.
- A Closer Look At The Quiet Love of Money or of What Money Can Do. – Pt. 2One good clue that money has become a servant to us, or ceased to be a master, is if our eyes and hearts have found rest in the living words of the Father, which alone can selflessly govern our use of money. There is nothing wrong in owning and enjoying things that money can provide or things that God still freely gives.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 116.Whenever we don’t fully recover from an unfavourable or painful experience, we won’t be able to respond to God from certain regions of our heart—until we keep the commandments or comforts of faith and love concerning it. As we see through the veil of peace that this world gives, journeying to inherit the peace of the Kingdom would become our new goal and meditation!
- Looking Inward and Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 106No man can become a true servant of God who has not disobeyed the course or life that mammon designed for men to live by. May the Faith in Christ Jesus become our soul’s currency for living, and may money mean to us what it meant to our Lord Jesus, Amen.
- Looking Inward and Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 59To keep our hearts from everything that can cause it to lose life, we have to guard it against every effort of the enemy to reach it through the dictates of our natural senses; primarily, via our eyes and ears. This demands the constant use of the breastplate of faith and love to shield our hearts from every thought and imagination of the devil, so we can focus on the dictates of the Spirit of God through our spirit, and thereby appreciate in the formation of the mind of Christ in our soul.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 58The world resident in men and through men can only make us feel insecure or look/think inferior with our consent, and it can only secure such consent from us through our ignorance of the promise of inheriting God’s life. There is something that overcoming this world and the wicked one means to God; and it must mean the same thing to us.

- Another Look @ The Influence of Mammon — Part 2And what the gospel of God (or of life everlasting and eternal) is now doing is to perfect our victory over mammon, so we can walk in love with God. A believer who attains the joy of the Father that enables him to consistently despise the god of this world (mammon) is divinely wiser than a believer who hasn’t.
- A Closer Look @ Loving Not This World (Sin) Until We Can Truly Hate It – Part 1The everlasting gospel was therefore given to help us to perfect the act and art of hating this world, even as we completely love the truth that is in the Father (Heb. 5:14, 1Jn. 5:4-5, 2Jn. 1:1-4).
- Timely Precepts On Loving Not The World – Part 2The season when our souls locate and abide in a new abode called the doctrine of Christ is the season when we have come over the love for the (old) things that are in this world; things under the influence of the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life (2Jn. 1:9, 2Cor. 5:17, 1Jn. 2:15b).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 15).The soul acquires spiritual immunity by spiritual understanding; by understanding what the Lord has said or is saying (1Cor. 14:20, Col. 1:9-10). Only by not counting our lives dear to ourselves or living like those who ended up inheriting eternal life – can we end up being victorious against it or not negotiate with it along the way (1Cor. 15, Acts 20:24, Lk. 14:31-32).
- Counsels From The Word of Righteousness (Part 11).It will take the feasts (and trials) of the faith of the Son of God to break that yoke; and to empower us to live in God’s sight – like we never imagined (Gal. 2:20, Isa. 55:2-3, Luk. 16:15. Hos. 6:1-3). Nothing is new under the sun but the word of righteousness – moving into hearts and into nations (Hab. 2:14).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 88The Lord wants to bring us to a place where, even when we want to take thought for tomorrow or for things the world as branded as life, we would not know how to go about it! His tool for this is His Gospel, which- when well taught and received – can fashion us to become fellows of another life (Christ); even as we gain possession of God’s revealed righteousness (Col. 2:6-7, 2Cor. 5:21, Heb. 1:9).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 71The Lord like never before, is set to favour the stones of Zion with another allocation of enduring gains, even with new entrance(s) into His Kingdom that would be administered to as many souls (stones) who would press further and keep His commandments (Ps. 102:13, 2Pet. 1:5-11). The gospel would be responsible for closing this age and for unveiling eternity, so now is the time to look for it – with our all, and like we never truly have (Matt. 24:14, 2Pet. 3:13, Mk. 12:30).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 61.But when the primary life pursuit of a soul is God’s life, a believer would have to leverage the divine power that flows from the Faith Christ authored, to handle money as a servant and gradually end its reign as a master. No man can resist the pull or love of money, who hasn’t tenaciously followed after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience and meekness (1Tim. 6:10-12).
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 57The counsels/commandments of the Lord are non-negotiable; and by our response to them, He determines who really we are or what we love above what He loved/loves, and also called us to love. The dominion over sin is a dominion over thoughts we fall prey to because of what we openly or secretly, knowingly or unknowingly love, even this world.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 53.Christ has a savor, a sweet smell that the Father has never resisted and likes to smell in virtually every of our conversation under the sun, especially from souls that are being tried, or in whom the world has been experiencing crucifixion. The doctrine of Christ seeks to open up every believer to the Son and Father (2Jn. 1:9, Tit. 2:11-13).
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 50.One strategic reason for the trials of faith is to deal with what makes us less contented with the life God offered us through the New Testament. So a day should come when every believer should glory in trials and tribulations, because only therein can we receive abundant entrance into God’s kingdom
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)-part 49If the Lord Jesus doesn’t have the right to influence or determine what we do with our time, strength and resources, then our claim of Him being Lord over our lives can be questioned. The gospel has come to empower us to see everything in the true light, so we can always take stock of our true net worth, and place things in the right perspective
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith)- Part 44This present life was given to us as a gift to learn eternal life, and without this understanding or sense of purpose, the abuse of this gift is inevitable.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Christ’s Faith) – Part 37There can be no entrance into the New Testament if we don’t acknowledge we have darkness within us, such that can only be treated with the same instrument of light and commitment to the central message of the Bible like it was found with the early church (1Jn. 1:5, Jam. 1:17).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 28.The following is another attempt to use the goggle of Christ’s Faith to weigh all conversation and filter all thoughts under the sun. So also is the walk, training, dealing and trials from faith to charity.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 25One thing the revelation of Christ does, is that, it always keeps us in check by giving us a revelation of ourselves; of who we really are before Him or outside the sight of men. One way to approach our needs unlike unbelievers and carnal believers do, or of taming the anxiety that comes from cares of this present life, is to confidently whisper with an understanding that says, “my heavenly Father knows that I have need of these things—and has offered me much more in His Kingdom”
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 18The philosophy of Faith also, is MORE; more of things to come, an abundance of the righteous substances of eternal life – for the saving of our souls (Heb. 10:34, 2Pet 3:13).
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 16The day we can seamlessly or naturally handle or overcome offence, preeminence, unforgiveness, losses, hurt, animosity – like we see little children do, then can we say we have been converted from being ‘adults’ before God into becoming ‘little children’ who have gained entrance into the Kingdom.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 14Keeping the precepts of Faith unto Charity cleanses us from our known and unknown love for this world and rids us of our known and unknown fears, so Christ can come indwell us via His Faith. When every revelation of Christ that comes our way becomes a commandment we keep, then inheriting the gospel of Christ or living by the power of God actually becomes inevitable.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 2A season where we can’t discern God’s expectation for our lives is a potentially wasted season, and one of the prescriptions for this is to meditate on the epistles day and night.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 17Like most developments in companies don’t earn the attention of great CEO’s, so also do most happenings on earth don’t earn the personal attention of the devil! But when an activity involves the transportation and nurturing of the seed of God (1Pet. 1:22-23/1Jn. 3:9), he fights it until he either overcomes the carrier of that precious seed (2Pet. 2:20/1Tim. 1:19-20/Jude 1:11-12) or until he is overcome in the process (Jn. 14:30/Rev. 12:11).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 14They came to a place where they saw sin in its true color because sin was an angelic problem (Eze. 28:14-15) that thrives when man attempts to solve it carnally, and it would take something higher and stronger than the angelic realm (i.e. God’s Love) to come over it!
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 13Sin is the first produce of the “good knowledge” of the tree being probed here, which is a product of disobedience to the law of God’s order of Faith. What crucifies the world in us and to us is the cross of Christ – the conversation of His Faith, and any believer that is ashamed of the lifestyle that accompanies this Faith is either openly or secretly in love with this world!
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 6The strength and blessedness of the New Testament is hinged on resurrection, and the goal of resurrection is to raise man from an estate called flesh (1Pet. 1:24) to one where a believer’s soul is seated with God!
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 19So if we can endure the dealings and the demands of the strait gate and of the narrow way, we’ll survive the first entrance (the wilderness – typifying Christ) where we would unlock the secret of His Life (His Faith) and receive preparation for an abundant entrance (Canaan – typifying the father).
- True_Change_Is_ImminentThe ministry of change (God’s Face) being supervised by His Spirit would be assuming a new dimension and no one must be left out (2Cor. 3:18/4:6). #True_Change_Is_Imminent!
- Introduction To The Gospel That Belongs To Christ – Part 4The singular motive of the Gospel of Christ is to ultimately grant believers access to partake of the Righteousness of God, the Peace of God and the Joy of the Lord. May we be foolish enough before the world to embrace the actual gospel of Christ while it is available to us, amen.
Isaiah 58

Isaiah 61
- A Closer Look @ The Love of Money – Part 10The love of money is a love that can thrive when we mind high things or can’t be content with food and raiment (1Tim. 6:8-10, 17).
- Urgency for Everlasting Life – Part 6One essence of the word of righteousness is to purify our motives and thoughts, so we can selflessly relate with the world and the things in her, become fully separated from it, and then take the Father’s commandments. Only thereby would we gain possession of the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, begin to comprehend the actual word of God, and ultimately, inherit the law of God.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 90The greatest competitor of faith is sight. The greatest limitation to the unseen realm where man’s true/spiritual blessings have been kept is the realm where his carnal blessings are exaggerated; where men serve things that have been anointed with divers lusts.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 75The earlier He can succeed in doing; even by unveiling Christ to us, the earlier we can be built up to a place where the world can neither unlock our affections nor lead us by dumb idols. The revelation of Christ; even of godliness, is the first “gain” that every soul needs to attain; so it can be empowered to truly seek for God, while living as supernaturally as Christ did.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 72Our peace is meant to come from bearing the cross of Christ that promises to crucify the world within and without us (Gal. 5:24/6:14). Take away that same philosophy of gain, away from the Church by the preaching of the gospel, and she would evolve in beauty and glory (Isa. 4:2).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 3As we keep the faith of Christ(J), we would overcome the dominion mandate of the “good” aspect of that tree. This is the gospel Jesus inherited from the father, for you and I, and very soon, it would find its way into churches in all nations(R) and it would become the preeminent teaching and conversation.
- Urgent Vacancy For Men of The Future – Part 1The solution to mankind’s problem has long been also packaged in a person; in the Tree of Life – and as far as God is concerned, it’s spiritually illegal to remain fleshy (Gen. 3:3/Jn. 6:54/Rev. 22:2)
- True_Change_Is_Imminent – Part 2We are therefore at the mercy of seeking freedom in God’s way, with God’s resources, and at God’s time. Going forward, a genuine wind of change that’s governed by the Gospel of Christ (God’s Power) would be visiting the church (saints) like never before.
- Becoming SOMEBODY By Becoming NOBODY – Part 3God’s glory only follows the-faith-building-trials-of-Christ (1Pet. 1:11/5:1), and this takes place as we allow the dismantling of the wrong life (disobedience/death/darkness), which we all inherited in the first Adam but have been destroying IN Christ Jesus (2Tim. 1:10).
- Introduction To The Gospel That Belongs To Christ – Part 2The actual Gospel of Christ unveils God through teachings that reveal Christ (Rom. 16:25b/Eph. 3:3-4) that helps believers in their journey back to The Father (Jn. 13:3)! As churches begin to open their doors to it, the present emphasis on various subjects would change and God’s Glorious/Eternal Power would be unlocked and sons (matured saints) would be born.

- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 133How meek we are, can always be traced to how long we can continue to do what is right; especially when someone else – who is ignorant of the wise commandments from the Word of Righteousness – keeps doing what is wrong. Becoming meek is the most costly choice a man can make; by those who must be prepared to be despised by all those who haven’t despised this world.
- Looking Inward & Outward with the goggle of Faith- part 131A believer who is free from the reach and fears generated by principalities, powers and rulers of the darkness of this world-is one who has laid aside the old things or goods of his soul. Such a one has developed a single/Christlike mind or eye that solely looks for the incorruptible inheritance from the Father of lights; for the next inheritance that can only be found in the everlasting Kingdom of God the Father.
- Looking Inward and Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 79There is no way our motive in life can be right, if – unlike God – our motivation in life isn’t to ultimately make known God’s power and glory. But as the eyes of our heart gets truly enlightened, we would begin a journey that should see us adventure the righteousness, peace and joy of God’s Kingdom; and, thereby, truly enjoy life – in its truest meaning.
- Looking inward and outward (with the google of faith) – Part 54.One way we can know that the power of God (Christ) is becoming more tangible to us, is when those thoughts that used to unduly earn our attention/meditation, cease to do so; or when things that previously disturbed our peace, lose their potency.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 20The devil is a specialist in telling us what others aren’t thinking about us and in painting brilliant thoughts about a future outside God’s life. God designed our soul such that – if it must remain healthy – it must be unattached to anything meant only for use: be it a pen or a prime property.
- Looking Inward & Outward (with the goggle of Faith) – Part 18The philosophy of Faith also, is MORE; more of things to come, an abundance of the righteous substances of eternal life – for the saving of our souls (Heb. 10:34, 2Pet 3:13).
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 8Creation is beholding men being cultured with the separated life that Adam failed to partake of, men that are increasingly jealous of this life that they have agreed with the Lord that it is their true life and they must inherit it in the days of their flesh. Heaven and earth no doubt don’t share the same definition or interpretation of riches and of poverty.
- A Closer Look @ The Man In Christ – Part 1This is the description of the man in Christ, the corporate Christ that finds grace to trade the genetic makeup of his soul for that of God until he fully learns God – like Jesus did! God has committed unto our generation, the knowledge that saves the soul; the knowledge of the power of God which through Christ’s Faith leads to the salvation of our souls.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 35Adam’s (man’s) soul was meant to come into full salvation (i.e. God’s image and likeness) by keeping God’s commandments to the end like Jesus later did! Faith and Love are the “dollar” and “pound” of the Spirit; the currencies for processing the present man into God’s image, and the church would do well to tarry with what Paul and John primarily unveiled concerning both.
- The Journey So Far (August 2015 – August 2016)Jesus has been unveiling His Father here and there and this gradually committed the father’s approval of newer experiences and unveilings of the riches of His grace that was kept in Christ Jesus. Sons of Faith and Sons of Love are being born and their simple secret remains their ability to entertain the Feasts (trumpets) of The Son which would always culminate in the Feasts (thundering) of The Father.
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 19So if we can endure the dealings and the demands of the strait gate and of the narrow way, we’ll survive the first entrance (the wilderness – typifying Christ) where we would unlock the secret of His Life (His Faith) and receive preparation for an abundant entrance (Canaan – typifying the father).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 18THE SECRET PLACE is the place where Christ reveals His Faith which was kept secret for ages until Jesus walked on earth(E). It’s a place of receiving GOD’S GREAT PROMISE which is the inheritance of God’s elect(F).
- Another Look @ The Essence of Sonship – Part 9God has called us to seek an inheritance; a life that was never invented! He has and would continue to bless men with wisdom for witty inventions, but believers must be ready to treat them like God treats the works of His hands – “i.e. don’t be attached to them” like God is so unattached to heaven that he wants to “leave heaven”(P) and indwell men that have been decked with true riches/eternal glory.
