Praying In The Context Of Faith In Jesus Christ Crucified by ochibuogwu5: 9:44pm On Jan 17, 2020
*praying within the context of 'faith' in Jesus Christ Crucified* not just praying to be part of what everybody is doing....


We need to *surrender 100% of our whole being (spirit, soul and body)* to the *transforming power of the Cross of Jesus Christ* so that *our old flesh is put to death completely* then the new creation being (Jesus Christ) will begin to manifest *freely not because of anticipated promotion or fear of punishment*;
resistance towards sin/flesh,
prayer and praise anchored upon faith in Jesus Christ Crucified,
holiness,
righteousness,
prayer and fasting anchored upon faith in Jesus Christ Crucified,
self-control,
regular personal bible study to discover more about Jesus Christ Crucified now dwelling inside us not just to do what others are doing,
personal and group evangelism in order to help others *experience the inexplicable freedom you have come to share in the Crucified Jesus Christ* in your whole being (spirit, soul and body)
Great Grace Brethren!!!

Jeremiah 4:3 For thus saith the LORD to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns. 4:4 Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.

Yes, it's a life of rest. We rest in what he has done on the cross and allow the Holy Spirit work it out in us. I am currently working on a book titled "Coming To The End Of Self". This book would explain how to grow in the revelation of the cross and come to a place of brokenness and died to self/the flesh

It is *only by submitting 100% of our whole being (spirit, soul and body) to death with Jesus Christ on the Cross* that we *erase the pains* associated with our past hurts, betrayals, unforgiveness, and past lifestyle
thus Colossians 2:14 Blotting out *the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us*, and took it out of the way, *nailing it to His cross*; 2:15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Not just by *trying to bury it and move-on* with life while any instance of *seeing such person/circumstances* all the *bitterness/anger/pains/hurts* comes up again.

Psychological therapies can never *give complete/permanent healing to the pains of human mind* only the *implementation of the effects of the Cross of Jesus Christ on Calvary* upon each human soul thus "John 12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: *now shall the prince of this world(pains/sins/flesh/hurts/betrayals/evil-world-systems/ancestral-curses/addictions/depressions e.t.c) be cast out*. 12:32 And I, if *I be lifted up from the earth(death upon the Cross)*, will draw *all men unto me*. 12:33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.

Just seek mercy to receive grace from the Crucified Jesus Christ about your whole being and *all these things including the ones you do not physically know will be nailed to HIS CROSS* because these things affects other areas of our lives even the things that happened to us outside our current circumstances (marriage/business/institutions/office/church/relationships/health) and they will still resurface again if *the nail of HIS CROSS* does not erase its effects/power completely in our lives.

Matthew 4 23 Jesus went all over Galilee, teaching in the Jewish meeting places and preaching the good news about God’s kingdom. He also healed every kind of disease and sickness. 24 News about him spread all over Syria, and people with every kind of sickness or disease were brought to him. Some of them had a lot of demons in them, others were thought to be crazy,[d] and still others could not walk. But Jesus healed them all.

There are evil forces on earth and they can affect any human being however *all their powers/abilities* are rendered *ineffective/useless* in your life forever if you hear the gospel of the Cross of Jesus Christ, believe it and experience it 'personally' and continuously till biological death...



Colossians 2:14-15 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)

14 Because we broke God’s laws, we owed a debt—a debt that listed all the rules we failed to follow. But God forgave us of that debt. *He took it away and nailed it to the cross*. 15 He defeated the rulers and powers of the spiritual world. *With the cross he won the victory over them and led them away, as defeated and powerless prisoners for the whole world to see*.



Thank You Jesus Christ Crucified; My Freedom!!!

Romans 6:6-14 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV)
6 We know that our old life was put to death on the cross with Christ. This happened so that our sinful selves would have no power over us. Then we would not be slaves to sin. 7 Anyone who has died is made free from sin’s control.

8 If we died with Christ, we know that we will also live with him. 9 Christ was raised from death. And we know that he cannot die again. Death has no power over him now. 10 Yes, when Christ died, he died to defeat the power of sin one time—enough for all time. He now has a new life, and his new life is with God. 11 In the same way, you should see yourselves as being dead to the power of sin and alive for God through Christ Jesus.

12 But don’t let sin control your life here on earth. You must not be ruled by the things your sinful self makes you want to do. 13 Don’t offer the parts of your body to serve sin. Don’t use your bodies to do evil, but offer yourselves to God, as people who have died and now live. Offer the parts of your body to God to be used for doing good. 14 Sin will not be your master, because you are not under law. You now live under God’s grace.

Romans 6:6-14 The Message (MSG)
6-11 Could it be any clearer? Our old way of life was nailed to the cross with Christ, a decisive end to that sin-miserable life—no longer at sin’s every beck and call! What we believe is this: If we get included in Christ’s sin-conquering death, we also get included in his life-saving resurrection. We know that when Jesus was raised from the dead it was a signal of the end of death-as-the-end. Never again will death have the last word. When Jesus died, he took sin down with him, but alive he brings God down to us. From now on, think of it this way: Sin speaks a dead language that means nothing to you; God speaks your mother tongue, and you hang on every word. You are dead to sin and alive to God. That’s what Jesus did.

12-14 That means you must not give sin a vote in the way you conduct your lives. Don’t give it the time of day. Don’t even run little errands that are connected with that old way of life. Throw yourselves wholeheartedly and full-time—remember, you’ve been raised from the dead!—into God’s way of doing things. Sin can’t tell you how to live. After all, you’re not living under that old tyranny any longer. You’re living in the freedom of God.

1 Corinthians 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
