THE LOVE OF CHRIST
One emphasis in Paul's epistles is the love of Christ, which is because of its central place in our Christian faith and how precisely it reveals God.

At the newbirth, we receive a takeoff measure of this love. As we stay and grow in the word and fellowship, both in theory and practice (1John3:18), this love begins to grow more and more (Phil.1:9) with evidence in specific deeds.

In Rom 8:35 Paul passionately exclaims "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?"

Now, here is the message: believers who do not grow in love are the ones with the following traits (no attempt to exhaust the list):

Those who continue to struggle with sin.

Those who struggle to commit to God, the kingdom, the church and the programme of God.

Those who struggle to commune with the brethren.

Those who struggle to show kindness to others.

Those who struggle with patience with people, leadership, mentorship and the growth process.

Those who struggle with forgiveness for offenders and trust for others.

Those who struggle to financially and generously support the church and missions.

Those who struggle with oblations such as offerings, tithes and all financial issues relating to the house of God.

Those who struggle to give to the poor and needy.

Those who struggle to preach to the unsaved even after being in church for many years or prefer to head for the exit door when compelled to preach.

Those who are false brethren in Paul's terminology, troubling the unity and true brotherhood of the church.

We know this because Paul teaches us in 2Cor.5:14 that it's the love of Christ that constrains us...

I pray that your love for God will grow exceedingly with fruits of righteousness to show, in Jesus' name!

KNOWLEDGE AND FRUITS
In the first chapter of Romans we see Paul the Apostle addressing believers whose knowledge have strange and evil fruits.

Paul describes them in the following strong phrases:

"men who hold the truth in unrighteousness"

"when they knew God, they glorified him not as God"

"Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools"

"changed the truth of God into a lie"

"worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator"

In our days who are these people described?

1. Church people who in spite of what they have been taught never join the workforce or labourers in the local church.

2. Church people who only come to church to hear the word of God for personal gains.

3. Church people whose knowledge have no fruits of righteousness.

4. Church people whose yours in church have no corresponding souls to show.

5. Church people who eventually become worse than unbelievers in the dirty secret lives they live and shameful things they do, proving that their "knowledge" couldn't come to growth.

6. Church people who eventually become atheistic in word and deed, disputing and contending against same truths they once professed and even preached: unbelieving believers.

7. Idle and busybody church people who eventually prove through their demonically complicated lives that it is great wisdom to serve the Lord, and that those who serve him with wholehearted devotion are wise men.

You see: knowledge of God without service to God is always counterproductive and dangerous for any believer. It makes believers eventually rot and stink.

Eventually see what these kinds of "knowledge-full" ignorant church people become who only go to church only to make gain of God and church:

Romans 1:28-32
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

I pray God will save and shield you from out of service, in Jesus' name!

BOLDNESS!
Habitual fear, timidity and shyness in believers reveal something about them: shallownsss with God.

In addition, any believer who's not bold with preaching the gospel is so because of distance from Jesus: distance in revelation knowledge and the absence of tangible encounters that happen in the place of real fellowship and intimacy.

Acts 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

Boldness comes from intimacy with Jesus Christ.

Not preaching the gospel is not really your choice or because of your tight schedules; it's because you're far from Jesus, cold spirit and soul. Anyone intimate with Jesus with speak boldly about him always.

True disciples are not ashamed of preaching the gospel of Christ.

True Christians cannot go days and still feel normal without engaging perishing and needy souls with the gospel.

Like we have read above, when ordinary people have real intimacy with Jesus by frequently feeding on the word, by enjoying regular fellowship with the brethren, by daily prayer truly understood, God uses them powerfully like Peter and John, irrespective of all limitations.

Remember:
“Your boldness reveals your closeness to Jesus.”

Grace and peace be multiplied to you, in Jesus' name!

GREAT POWER
Fruitful withnessing and ministry demands great power. This extra measure of power is the difference between believers, ministers and churches even today.

Let's compare Acts 1:8 and Acts 4:33.

In Acts 1:8 the Bible says "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."

In Act 4:33 the scripture says "And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. "

From the scriptures above we know how the disciples received POWER: when they received the Holy Spirit. However, we do not know how and when they received GREAT POWER; but we do know that the work of the ministry became easy, miraculous and testimonious for them by great power. Searching the scriptures however immediately and obviously shows us how they got great power.

1. Staying with God in fellowship and fasting (Psa.63:1-2). The Psamist said "To see thy power and thy glory). Paul the Apostle who said he was an Apostle in signs, wonders and mighty deeds also referred to his fastings often (2Cor.12:12, 2Cor.11:27).

2. Fervent prayers. James makes reference to the great power Elijah the Prophet generated to serve the purposes of God through fervent prayers (James 5:16). Peter who is one of the new testament apostles who witnessed and ministered irresistibly in great power said "We will give ourselves continually to prayer" and indeed, we saw him keeping a life and habit of prayer during hours of prayer with mighty miracles proving that great power (Acts 6:4, Acts 3). Paul the Apostle also told us how he prayed always for God's people in his trust and taught us to pray without ceasing (Col.1:3, 1Thess.5:17, Eph.6:16). And mighty miracles in Paul's ministry with new converts turning ministers proved his great power (Acts 19 and 20).

This means that receiving the Holy Ghost doesn't automatically make us preach and teach powerfully and fruitfully. Powerful and evidently impactful ministry demands an extra price of fasting and praying fervently without ceasing.

Ministry is hard without great power.

Now be baptised with the grace to fast and the fire of fervent prayers, in Jesus' name!

ABIDE
One of the strongest messages of Jesus to us is to abide in him. To abide means to remain, stay, continue, or dwell. More deeply, it means to stay closely and daily connected in an ongoing, living relationship.

What many do with God is to use Him to either advance their lives from one level to another or use him to get out of their periodic troubles and afterwards continue their thing like "the deal is over for now until I'll be needing you again."

It's manageable for an unbeliever but great ignorance for a believer to live like this.

When you do not abide in him:

You lose life
You lose fruit
You lose strength
You lose clarity
You lose vitality
You lose good men
You lose protection
You lose power
You lose divine promises and privileges
You lose peace

How do you abide in Christ? You abide in Christ according to the life Christ showed us with the Father:
1. Feed on God's word daily
2. Pray multiple times daily (regular communication)
3. Obey the word of God you've been taught
4. Be in frequent fellowship in the house of God with the brethren (be present every time church meets offline and online)
5. Depend on Jesus always and not your own understanding or effort
6. Remove whatever is blocking or breaking your connection with God (sin, esteems, relationships and distractions that replace or crowd out God)
7. Yield your life a living sacrifice never out of service to God. Be actively involved in pleasing God through the good works he commanded (primarily preaching, baptising, teaching and healing- Matt.28:19-20)

When you make yourself available for Jesus privately and corporately like his first twelve, then you are abiding in him.

Mar 3:14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,

Now receive grace to abide, in Jesus name!

COMPELLED TO COMMIT
The pattern our Lord Jesus left us for bringing and keeping his people in the kingdom is to compel them. Compel because their imposter master the devil is usually tough on his hold on captive souls. There's no other alternative left us for an example.

This is what we see Jesus do in Mark 1:16-20 and repeat in many other portions of Scripture like his encounter with the woman by the well who eventually yielded.

Mark 1
16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.

18 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.

19 And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.

20 And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.

Jesus is the one who used the word "compel" to describe how we are able to get this assignment done and get his house and kingdom full.

To compel means to force, strongly persuade, or drive someone to do something—often because of strong pressure, necessity, or influence.

To be very fruitful in this kingdom and stop giving excuses, we first give ourselves to the highly demanding, time-consuming and rigorous soul-winning and disciple-making training that turns us into sharp threshing instruments who can make God proud anywhere and everywhere. Those too lazy to give themselves to God's training either run away unto vanity or live a pseudo Christian life, never producing fruits of righteousness.

The quality of your training is measured by your capacity to compel souls from darkness to light- and keep them in the light, knowing and serving the Lord in ever increasing measure.

Just like our Lord Jesus Christ, we compel souls by strong preaching, sound teaching, mighty power, undeniable miracles and good works. We compel souls by going beyond inviting them to bringing them like that "anagkazo servant" to the house of God.

For every soul compelled, your goal must be same goal of Jesus: to make the most willing able ministers of the new testament (apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers like Peter, Andrew, James and John above) irrespective of the occupations, professions, businesses and careers you meet them; and the less willing capable disciples bearing ministry financial burdens and more, like Joseph of Arimathaea (Matt.27:57).

Don't forget: men are compelled to commit.

Receive fresh compelling grace to fulfil your ministry, in Jesus' name!

THIS IS MANDATORY
One serious message of our Lord Jesus Christ in the gospel according to St. Matthew is what is generally referred to as the great commission.

In Matthew 28:19-20 the Lord gave a command to make disciples (students, grace interns) of every nation by taking them through three important steps:

Preaching
Baptism and
Teaching

Matthew 28:19-20
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

This command although was directly given to the apostles and disciples of Jesus who were with him then is applicable to every believer in Christ, and this includes you reading. Why? The reason is because of two scriptures that interpret this clearly to us:

Mark 13:37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

2 Corinthians 5:17-19
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. note

18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

It's important you know that whatever work God has assigned to you he will require of you to give account, like the man who gave talents to his servants expecting trading and profit before his return.

Now how can you begin fulfilling your part in this assignment and ministry in your trust?

1. Become a student under grace and start learning wholeheartedly, hungry and humble. Remember that students do not skip classes nor select the subjects, teachings or topics for their class (James 1:21, 1Pet.2:2, 3John1:3-4).

2. Get baptized in the Holy Spirit for foundational empowerment (Acts 1:8, Acts 19:1-6).

3. Be given to daily Bible study and prayers according to what our Lord Jesus prescribed. These will help you to be in alignment with the will of God, leading of the Holy Spirit and the power of God (Acts17:11, 1Thess.5:17)

4. Get trained on soul winning and disciple-making so as to be very fruitful. He that winneth souls is wise (2Tim.2:15, Prov.11:30).

5. While you learn, get actively participating in every Evangelism, outreach or MassReach in the local church. Practice makes perfect. The more you participate in reaching the lost and in soul winning the better you become in bearing and keeping fruits.

6. Always make prayers for those you minister to so as to stand perfect and complete in the will of God, and also begin saving others.

7. All those you approach to win to Christ must be taken through the same three steps, the middle step requiring that you teach them ALL that Jesus did and taught, illustrated in the Apostolic ministry.

Remember without being actively involved in disciple-making you aren't doing what you're in Christ for, your salvation is useless, and you aren't preparing to meet the Lord. This command is mandatory.

I pray the Lord will help you to wake up and fulfil the assignment and ministry you have received in Him to His pleasure, in Jesus' name!

STORMED BUT STANDING
Many fall after a strong storm. What you become after an attack on your house depends on the strength of your building. The Bible emphatically says that a wise man is strong and a man of knowledge increases strength (Prov.24:5).

In the teaching and illustration of Jesus, believers who aren't doers of the word grow old but never grow up spiritually enough to be able to ride and rise through the storms of life. Let's read:

Matthew 7
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

You see, we may give titles and responsibilities people based on their frequency in church like Apostle Judas but the real growth status of a believer is revealed when there is trouble and fire on the mountain, especially prolonged trials.

The falls of this house described by Jesus is when a believer breaks down demoralised in despondency or backslides, abandoning purpose for vanity or returning back to old ways.

On the contrary, a believer who hears and does the word, ever committed to truth is firmly trusting and ever rising through the exact same storms of life. Glory to God!

Jesus says none doers of the word are fools whose lives continue to cycle in pains, losses and tears building houses, investments, businesses, careers, relationships and their world in vain.

Receive wisdom and discipline to commit to God's word, in Jesus' name!

THE BLESSING THROUGH THE TESTAMENTS
The book of Malachi is a prophetic burden specially to God's people who do not have respect unto the covenant ("do not" because it's still applicable to God's people today with similar nonchalance).

Malachi 1
7 Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the LORD is contemptible.

8 And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith the LORD of hosts.

From Abraham down to the new testament, we see that the blessing finds evident expression in the lives of those who have respect to the covenant.

Those who despise or ignore it never look blessed. It's for this reason we have many scriptural and life examples of Abraham's seed who look like strangers to the covenants of promise.

Before we plunge into this, is "covenant" still applicable or relevant in the new testament to the new creation in Christ under grace? We will find the answer in two portions of the new testament:

Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

Gal.3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

What do you think? The answer is YES; we are still covenant people who must have respect unto the covenant.

Psa 74:20 Have respect unto the covenant...

Abraham was blessed in all things because he demonstrated his faith and works in respect to the covenant.

James 2
21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?

Faith, in believing God.
Works, in offering to God required and pleasing sacrifices.

The people and nations before us who honoured God by committing to the covenants were the greatest of all people. Glory to God!

The people and nations before us who abandoned this ancient pathway to walk in their vain imagination and intelligence became ordinary, reduced, small, stagnated, despised and destroyed by enemies.

We must learn from these and walk in wisdom early.

Righteousness, tithing, firstfruiting, offering, and the likes are established truths for showing respect to the covenant.

You need to understand today that it's not the economy of your country that's making life harder for you. It's your attitude and commitment to the covenant. Didn't you read in the scriptures that people have prospered in famine and hardship like they were in another realm (Gen.26 and more)?

The book of Malachi shows us a people offering God corrupted worship and suffering the consequences from hearts corrupted by assumptions, grudges, murmuring, and doctrines of devils such as we have even in today's church.

May God help our recovery and revival, in Jesus' name!

NOT BY MIGHT
"Not by might" is divine invitation to let go and let God.

After returning from exile, the Jews were trying to rebuild the temple under Zerubbabel. But they faced:
-Opposition from enemies
-Limited resources
-Weak manpower
-Discouragement and fear
The project had stalled.

"Not by might" is a prophetic and timely message to let God take over in the face of effort and labour without result, yet without suggesting or promoting irresponsibility. It's a call to stop making undependable flesh your arm. It's a message to stop trusting in yourself (in your ability, qualification and connection) but in God. It's a revelation to save you from a life of continuous disappointments and frustration that unavoidably accompany self-reliance. It's a message to remind you that there's nothing much you can do or accomplish by yourself in a world controlled by superior spirits and supernatural beings with extra intelligence and might. It's a call to early acknowledge, submit to and partner with the Spirit of the Almighty God and fulfil with ease your dominion mandate.

Zec.4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

How do you really allow the Spirit of God take over to enjoy life's ease that follows His power and wisdom?

1. Surrender your life and your situation to God in prayer.

2. Acknowledge that you're weak and tell Him to carry you like you can do nothing.

3. Familiarise yourself with the word and ways of God by feeding regularly on God's word.

4. Renew your mind to understand the will of God and become spiritually minded.

5. When dealing with any case, seek for what God's written word says (through scriptural people and events) and what the Holy Spirit is saying or leading to do.

6. Give thanks to God for intervention that can be trusted.

7. Confirm the word and respond by action.

Wherever you're facing difficulty and resistance today, I pray the Lord will take over even as you surrender to Him right now, in Jesus' name!
