ULTIMATE PRICE FOR GLORY

Psalm 30:11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

30:12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

The path to glory in Christ is not a smooth ascent but a rugged climb marked by trials, refining fires, and even seasons of shame. Yet Scripture assures us that these hardships are not meaningless,they are the sacred price paid to prepare us for the weight of eternal glory God has ordained for His people. Psalm 66:10–14 and Hebrews 12:2 weave together a profound narrative of endurance, redemption, and ultimate triumph.

“For You, O God, have tested us; You refined us like silver. You brought us into prison… but You brought us to a place of abundance” (Psalm 66:10–12, NIV).
God’s testing is not random cruelty but a purposeful refining. Silver is purified in a furnace to remove dross, and likewise, believers are “tested by fire” (1 Peter 1:7) to burn away self-reliance, pride, and fear. The psalmist describes imprisonment and burdens as part of this process, yet these are temporary, God’s goal is to lead us into “abundance life.” Similarly, Israel’s wilderness wanderings prepared them for the Promised Land (Deuteronomy 8:2–5). Our trials are not setbacks but setups for God’s glory to manifest through us.

“Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Christ Himself paid the ultimate “price” for glory: He endured the cross nakedly with muckers shouting and tempting him to deliver himself if truly his who he claim to be, a symbol of humiliation and shame of the highest order, to secure our redemption. The cross was a scandal in His era, yet Jesus “scorned its shame” because He saw beyond it, to the joy of redeeming humanity and reclaiming His rightful throne. His resurrection transformed shame into victory, proving that temporary suffering births eternal honor (Romans 6:5).

Likewise, your seasons of shame whether from rejection, failure, or persecution are not final. They are opportunities to fix your gaze on Christ, trusting that your pain is a down payment for future glory. I use to imagine, if Jesus was crucified in this dispensation, many preachers who believe they know God would have deny him to be the messiah due to what he suffered. Now that some judge God's faithfulness with assets, net-worth, fame and money. God is now down to the level of earthly things. "2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."

The psalmist responds to God’s refining with worship: “I will come to Your temple with burnt offerings… I will fulfill my vows” (Psalm 66:13–14). Worship in suffering is an act of defiance against despair. Like Paul, who “gloried in tribulations” because they produce perseverance, character, and hope (Romans 5:3–4), we are called to declare God’s faithfulness even in the furnace. The “vows” we make in trials to trust Him, obey Him, and proclaim His goodness become testimonies that anchor our faith and inspire others (Revelation 12:11).

The glory ahead is not merely a reward but a transformation. Just as Christ was “glorified” after His suffering (Luke 24:26), we too will be “revealed with Him in glory” (Colossians 3:4). Psalm 66:12 uses vivid imagery: God leads us “through fire and water” symbols of extreme trials, but His purpose is to bring us “into a place of abundance.” This parallels Paul’s assurance: “Our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all” (2 Corinthians 4:17). Every tear, every ache, every moment of shame is a stitch in the tapestry of our eternal inheritance.

The price of glory is costly, many admire the glory neglecting the true path and the way that leads to lasting glory, Christ has already paid the highest price. Our role is to *“stay”* to endure, worship, and fix our eyes on Him until His work in us is complete (Philippians 1:6). Shame may linger for a night, but joy comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5). As we walk this path, let us remember: The fire refines, but it does not consume (Isaiah 43:2). The cross was shameful, but the resurrection was glorious. Our stories shall ends not in ashes, but in crowns (2 Timothy 4:8).

“Therefore, do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised” (Hebrews 10:35–36). Stay steadfast your glorification in Him is assured, in the name of Jesus. I pray the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be sufficient unto you. Season of hardship, pain, lack and want come to an end today in your life in the name of Jesus. It shall end up in praise.

Amen
Bless You

Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

DAILY CELEBRATE JESUS CHRIST

Romans 14:5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

14:6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

All things in summary should be done to the Lord and to the glory of His name. Paul address the issue of days observing among Jews in is letter to Romans, the diversity of opinions among believers. While some esteem one day above another, others consider every day alike. Paul's counsel underline the importance of individual conviction and perspective.

Paul's statement, "Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind" (Romans 14:5), underscores the role of personal perspective in shaping our attitudes toward days. Our experiences, traditions, culture and backgrounds influence how we perceive and celebrate specific Day.

In essence, Paul suggests that all days are equal in the eyes of God. The distinction between days lies not in their inherent value but in the significance we assign to them based on our individual perspective. I have a brother that celebrate his birthday in the wrong date, when he finally know, he decided to choose the one he's accustom with not the real date of his. We all believe what history paint for us, reimagine you where not born in the date your parent told you.

The Sabbath for instance, was a sacred day in the Jewish tradition, commemorating God's rest after creation. However, with the advent of Christianity, the observance of the Sabbath became a matter of debate. While some early Christians continued to observe the Sabbath, (Seven days Adventist) others saw every day as equal, choosing to worship and rest on the first day of the week (Sunday). Cause, that is the day our Lord resurrected out of the grave victoriously.

_Mark 16:9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first ...._

Paul's teaching always emphasizes the principle of liberty in Christ. Believers are free to observe or not observe specific day, as long as their decisions are guided by their individual convictions and a desire to honor God. The significance of days lies in our individual perspectives, shaped by our experiences, traditions, and cultural backgrounds.

While some may esteem one day above another, others may consider every day alike. Ultimately, what matters is that our attitudes toward days are guided by our convictions and a desire to honor God. Why all this explanation? Is to clear the debate surrounding the birthdate of Jesus Christ. While many celebrate Christmas on December 25th, others argue that this date is not supported by biblical evidence.

Let's delve into the historical and scriptural context to shed light on this controversy. The Bible do not provide a specific date or month for Jesus' birth. The Gospels of Matthew and Luke, which narrate the events surrounding Jesus' birth, focus on the significance of the event rather than the exact date. Why?

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. John 1:10

Jesus was, even before the world began, the maker of days can't be trapped in a day called Christmas, that will be too diminishing. Notice Jesus Christ is the year changer. Check the meaning of BC and AD.

In the early Christian church, the Epiphany (January 6th) was the primary celebration, commemorating the visit of the Magi to Jesus. However, in the 4th century, Christmas began to gain popularity, and December 25th was chosen as the date for celebration. This coincides with the ancient Roman festival of Saturnalia, which honored the god Saturn, and the Germanic festival of Yule, which marked the winter solstice.

Some historical records and astronomical observations suggest that Jesus' birth may have occurred during the spring or fall, rather than in December: due to Roman census which prompted Mary and Joseph to travel to Bethlehem, Jesus birth took place during the spring or fall, when travel was more feasible. Never forget, Jewish calendar is different from our own.

In conclusion, the exact date of Jesus' birth remains uncertain, it is clear that December 25th was not a universally accepted date in the early Christian church. The choice of this date may have been influenced by then existing authority with the desire to celebrate and reference our Savior.

Ultimately, the birth of Jesus Christ is a celebration of the incarnation of God, and its significance extends far beyond a specific date. As we commemorate this event, let us focus on the profound implications of Jesus' birth and the transformative power of His life, death, and resurrection.

The day we genuinely gave our life to Jesus Christ become the date His born in us. Many celebrate Christmas without knowing or having Christ in their life, this also is service to an unknown God. Do you know Jesus, did He live by His Spirit in your heart?

Always Celebrate Jesus
Perfect Morning

Act 17:23 For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, To The Unknown God . Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.

MIND YOURSELF

*_2 Corinthians 13:5_ Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?*

_13:6_ But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.
_13:7_ Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.*

_13:8_ For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

Reprobate implies a sense of disapproval, rejection, or condemnation.

However, it's crucial to approach this knowing God is not a man. The rejected one can later be the chief cornerstone, so fellow individuals with empathy and understanding, recognizing that people can change and grow.

Theologically speaking, a reprobate is someone who has been rejected by God or denied salvation. This concept is often associated with the idea of predestination, where some individuals are deemed unworthy of salvation, as in the case of Satan and his fallen angels (for they are spirits, not humans).

In a broader sense, a reprobate is someone who is considered wicked, sinful, or immoral. This person may engage in behavior that is harmful to themselves or others. A person who has been convicted of a crime and was considered to be beyond reform.

My sincere prayer is that you won't be a reprobate. In the name of JESUS.

Some are considered to be troublemakers, rogue persons, untrustworthy, unreliable, or prone to causing chaos. It's essential to note that the term "reprobate" can be perceived as judgmental or pejorative. When describing someone, it's crucial to consider the context and potential implications of using this term.

Always remember, reflecting on our actions and words is a courageous and essential step towards personal growth and building stronger relationships. By doing so, we can turn new leaves and move forward with kindness, understanding, empathy, and wisdom.

We need to do self-reflection; it's a crucial aspect of personal growth and development. It's essential to regularly pause, introspect, and evaluate our behavior, ensuring it aligns with God's Word, His values, and purpose.

When we recognize that our actions or words have caused harm or strayed from Christ's principles, it's vital to do the following:

1. *Acknowledge and accept*: Recognize the wrongdoing, take responsibility, and accept the aftermath.

2. *Repent*: Sincerely regret and commit to changing the harmful behavior.

3. *Apologize*: Offer a genuine apology to those affected, making amends if possible.

4. *Make amends:* Take concrete actions to rectify the situation and prevent similar harm in the future.

5. _Learn and grow_: Use the experience as an opportunity to learn, adapt, and improve.

6. _Turn a new leaf_: Embrace a fresh start, implementing positive changes and striving to become a better version of yourself.

This simple process demonstrates accountability, empathy, and a willingness to grow. By embracing this perspective, we can cultivate self-awareness and introspection. We can also nurture meaningful relationships through genuine apologies and amends, fostering personal growth and development.

I encourage us to be accountable as we embrace a mindset of continuous learning and improvement.

"No one has the liberty to judge another person."

Romans 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

Judging others is a natural human tendency, but it's essential to recognize that we don't have the authority to judge someone's character, worth, or actions. Here's why:

1. As humans, we have a limited perspective. We only see a glimpse of someone's life, making it impossible to understand their entire story, struggles, and motivations.

2. Personal biases; Our own experiences, beliefs, and values influence our judgments, making them subjective and potentially unfair.

3. Each individual is unique, with their own strengths, weaknesses, and circumstances. Comparing or judging them against others is unfair.

4. People can learn, grow, and change. Judging them based on past actions or circumstances may not reflect their current reality.

5. Judging others can lead to hurt feelings, division, and conflict, rather than understanding and empathy.

Instead of judging, try to understand others' perspectives and struggles. Show kindness and support by understanding the complexity of human experiences. Love and embrace others' unique qualities and worth.

Remember, we are all works in progress, deserving of understanding and compassion. Let's strive to create a culture of empathy and acceptance, rather than judgment.

Amen

Psalms 28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. Psalms 71:23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed. Hallelujah, JESUS remain the LORD of host

Hebrews 13:5 *Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.*
13:6 *So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.*

Covetousness is an envious eagerness to possess something with extreme greed for material wealth. Luke 6:45 *A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.* We know a man through is word, for mouth is the window to everyone's heart. A part are view through the window of every building. I pray your deliverance from the spirit of covetousness in the name of JESUS. We are only given permission to covet love and spiritual gift not worldly acquisition. 1 Corinthians 12:31 *But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.* 1 Corinthians 14:39 *Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.* Receive grace that covet spiritual things in the name of JESUS. As a child of God, when your ambition for the things of God started dying with a replace drive to have the world and the fullness thereof, believe me you are on the edge of losing your soul. All things are yours said the scripture but not to lose your soul for anything. 3 John 1:2 *Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.* Receive grace for contentment in the name of JESUS. Failure to content with little will still make much not satisfying. Let your joy be in His abiding presence, no one have it all except God. Hallelujah

Amen

16:10 *And it came to pass,* as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, *behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud*.

I prophesy in the name of JESUS, today will reveal God's glory in your life, family, ministry, destiny, marriage, in the name of JESUS. There is something about morning, it come with mercy Psalms 59:16 *But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.*
Lamentations 3:23 *They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.* Today been another new morning, the Lord will do a new thing in your life, in the name of JESUS. Psalms 30:5. ".....Joy cometh in the morning." *I DECREE IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST*. Your weeping is over, this morning you are seeing the Glory of the LORD like never before in Life, in marriage, in ministry, in destiny, in your financial, and physical life in the Name of JESUS. Every problems causing you to murmur against self, others, even God. Vanished before you in the name of JESUS. Every godly Prophesy is coming to pass in your life speedily in the name of JESUS. As I stand to pray for you this morning , and you looking eagerly to fulfillment of prayer. Behold the GLORY of the Lord will appear from where you less expected in the Name of JESUS. *God Bless my day in Christ JESUS.* Murmur not (is a sign of unbelieve). Rather praise God for His Faithfulness, Power, Glory, that will be reveal in You.

*Amen*

Philippines 3:1 *Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.*
3:2 *Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.*
3:3 *For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.*
3:4 *Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:*

There is a transformation that come through illumination by the power in His word the day we believe in JESUS CHRIST as our personal LORD and savior. Jesus gave us his Life which enable us to rejoice even in the midst of challenges and difficulties, by faith we are now more than conqueror through Him that love us. Romans 8:37 *Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.* Read Roman 8:35-36 Incase you don't know those things he is talking about *tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, nakedness, peril, sword, slaughtering, even death.* Tell me the one you have witness that your love for him is going cold. Proverbs 24:10 *If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.* End time Christianity most understand what it takes to withstand the evil days. Matthew 24:12 & 21 *And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.* Sharpen your spirit, Christianity is deeper than you believe it to be. Apostle Paul was in prison when writing this epistle to Philippians church, encouraging them to rejoice in the Lord, telling them is not grievous, not anxious, not fearful. A carnal man can never comprehend the life of the spirit, we rejoice in Him that is invisible not in things that are temporary and visible. 1 Corinthians 1:18 *For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us
