Rom 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.


We have faith in God by hearing the Word of Faith; which is the Word of God.

The Word of God here, is the Word of Faith - the Gospel of Grace; the full gospel.

It is in hearing the faith filled Word of God that faith comes, and it is in hearing the faith filled Word of God that faith is nurtured.

What is preached most times on our pulpits are nothing but sin, condemnation and the wrath of God. Such breeds fear, inferiority, and doubt rather than faith.

It is the hearing of the preached Gospel of the grace and truth of God that came by Jesus Christ, that brings faith.

However, we walk by faith, by first living by faith.

We cannot walk in something we don't have. So we are to live by faith before we walk by faith.

Likewise, We live in the Spirit (i.e having the Spirit of Christ in our hearts - being born again, Rom 8:9) before we can walk in or by the Spirit,

Gal 5:25 If we LIVE IN THE SPIRIT[having the Spirit of God dwell in us by reason of the new birth-being born again], let us also WALK IN THE SPIRIT.

So we live in, before we walk in.

Same is true with faith.

We have to live by faith(i.e having first the faith that came into our hearts when we heard the Gospel of our salvation and received it by that same faith, thus becoming born again) before we can walk by faith.

Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation TO EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

So by hearing the Gospel of Christ that saves, we receive faith to believe for salvation, thus receiving Christ and becoming saved.

So in hearing the gospel of salvation, the faith of Christ was imparted unto us to believe and receive the message.

That is, we use His faith(imparted, on hearing the message; Rom 10:17) to believe the faith message,

Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and SHALT BELIEVE IN THINE HEART that God hath raised him from the dead, THOU SHALT BE SAVED.

The faith to believe in the heart comes by hearing the Word of faith- the Word of God.

So the just shall live by faith that came through the preached Gospel (i.e saved and imparted with Eternal life by faith), and then should walk by that faith from then on,

Col 2:6 As ye have therefore RECEIVED CHRIST JESUS THE LORD [by faith that came through the hearing of the Gospel of Chrsit, which is the Word of faith] , SO WALK YE IN HIM[by faith]:

You should know as a believer in Christ that you already have faith in God, if not so, then you were never saved, you are not born again.

So as a born again saint of God in Christ, don't let any one tell you that you don't have faith in God, cause you do, if not you won't have been saved.

As a believer you should learn how to walk by faith, not how to have faith or live by faith; you already have and are living by it; except the term "live by faith" is conveying the thought, "walking or living the day to day life by faith"

You've already got faith, you only need to know how to use it to appropriate all that has been made available for you in Christ.

It is expedient you know how to walk by faith else you will live a defeated life as a Child of God.

You see, we can only enforce to seeing the manifestation of all that belongs to us in Christ through faith.

Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

We can only walk in the fullness of these blessings only by standing and holding fast to them by faith.

We will only see the fruit or manifestations of redemption, righteousness, sanctification, wisdom, salvation, and all the other spiritual blessings by standing and walking by faith.

You can only enforce Colossians 1:13 by faith,

Col 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

A Christian praying, for ending hours, that the power or authority of witches, wizards and demons should be broken in his or her life is not walking by faith in the light of Colossians 1:13. He is trying to break what only exists in the figment of his imagination, sponsored by the devil; mental strongholds.

And we have been instructed as Christians to cast down these strongholds in 2Corinthians 10:3-5.


A Christian jumping from prayer house to prayer house trying to break generational curses or alters, is not walking by faith in the light of John 15:5.

John 15:5 I AM THE VINE, YE ARE THE BRANCHES: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Jesus is the Vine that bears the Root and we as Christians(born again believers in Christ) are the branches.

If Jesus is the Tree that bears the root to which you are connected to as branch, where is generational curse coming from? Is there corruption in Christ?

The man or woman in Christ have been disconnected from all such as generational curses or trends of any sort; we should stop chasing what does not exist in Christ.

You are of another line of geneology now in which Christ Jesus is the root. Your old family tree is gone. It is abolished in Christ,

Col 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;


We are perishing for lack of knowledge. We are in the world but not of the world, whatever is affecting them should not affect us. If family line curses or illness are wrecking havoc on your blood relations who don't know Christ, your case should be different. This is what sanctification is all about.

Sanctification means, "to set apart as clean, different from amongst the others".

And the bible says in so many places that we have been sanctified,

Heb 10:10 By the which will WE ARE SANCTIFIED through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Heb 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever THEM THAT ARE SANCTIFIED.

1Cor 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and SANCTIFICATION, and redemption:

Jesus is our sanctification!

What can not get to Him should never get to us His children.

You have to believe the Word of God from the above verses, meditate on them so as to get full and conscious of them, and then enforce them in your life if anything appears contrary and see the power of God released to settle the situation.

Whenever you see anything in your life that is contrary to the Word of God concerning you, stand your ground in faith and resist it, rebuking it in the name of Jesus and confessing instead what the Word says.

If you see sickness in your life, rebuke it and confess instead what the Word says and stand on it- not giving it any place by ignorance, doubt or complacency. The Word says,

Matt 8:17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

1Pet 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

You have to fight the good fight of faith by declaring and enforcing what the Word says about you.

The good fight of faith is not casting and binding devils and breaking alters and generational curses, illness or bondage that exist only in your mind because of wrong believing. It is laying hold of the Word of God and standing by it, by getting it into your mouth and enforcing it in whatever situation it applies.

As a man thinks in his heart so is he, Pr 23:7.

Your mindset forms what is or what is not permitted in your life. Your most dominant thoughts and believes sets a lid over you that you can never rise above.

Our believes and mindset will only manifest in the physical.

As a believer, you are only seeing the effect or signs of generational patterns in your life because the devil has succeeded in getting you to think the way he wants you to think.

Because the devil knows that, if he can get you to think bondage, poverty and sickness, it will manifest whether you are in Christ or not, because even though God loves you as His child, He will never violet your free will.

This is the good fight. The battle in your mind, imposed by your circumstances.

But we are to stick with the Word, not what we see around us. This is FAITH!

In Christ you already have your healing, you already have you deliverance from anything that ties you to this world and to the kingdom of darkness. You already have victory on every side.

But you see, the devil will try to put them on you because he is a thieve, a killer and a destroyer, John 10:10.

This is why the Word of God tells us to resist him; because he is actually under your feet,

Jas 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. RESIST THE DEVIL, and HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU.
1Pet 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, SEEKING whom he may devour:
1Pet 5:9 WHOM RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.


He is out seeking the believer who will not stand his or her ground in faith, so as to steal, kill or destroy them.

We are to resist him steadfastly in faith, he is under our feet. That where he is,

Rom 16:20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan UNDER YOUR FEET shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

It says, God will bruise him where? under your feet, because that's where he is located. Jesus Christ put him there for us when He defeated him on the cross.

Eph 1:20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
Eph 1:21 FAR ABOVE ALL principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
Eph 1:22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
Eph 1:23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

Eph 2:6 And hath RAISED US UP TOGETHER, and MADE US SIT TOETHER in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

We are seated together with Christ far above the devil, all his kingdom and cohorts.

The tiniest believer in Christ has more authority than all the devils put together, because he is part of the bones and flesh of the body Christ. Hallelujah!

Eph 5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

This was suppose to be an in-depth on faith, but the Holy Spirit have led me into the believer's authority.

It is good because it requires faith to enforce our authority over the kingdom of darkness and of this world.

Luke 10:19 Behold, I give unto you POWER TO TREAD ON serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.


So as a believer in Christ, you are already living in or by faith, because the just shall live by faith, and you already have that life - Eternal life, through faith in Christ. But we have to learn and strive to walk by that faith.

You walk by faith by finding out what and what are already yours in the Word through the finish work of Christ and enforcing them.

You enforce them with the authority given to you in Christ, by first believing the Word, and then resolving to stick to what it says no matter what. By this the manifestation of your faith will grow and grow.

Where you blessed?

Confess this: I live by faith, and I walk by faith, by taking sides together with the Word of God against what might appear true in the physical. I receive Grace to walk by faith and not by what I see, hear or feel.

Rom 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, THE WORD OF FAITH, which we preach;...
10 For WITH THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH unto righteousness; and WITH THE MOUTH confession is made unto salvation.

Faith has become many things to different people due to a lack of proper understanding of the subject.

To some, faith is a mental agreement.
To others, it is positive thinking or optimism.
Surprisingly, to others, it is hope.
And yet to others, it is wishful thinking.

Faith is non of these things.

Faith is of the heart. It is not a thing of the head.

Although hope is of the heart too, it is yet not faith.

Faith is not mentally accenting or agreeing to something or anything; it is a thing of the heart, not of the head.

Faith is not optimism, and optimism is not faith. One can be optimistic about something and yet operate without faith in regards to getting that "something".

Optimism could be dashed, whereas faith can never be dashed or aborted; it is ever living.

In faith, there is excitement as well as in optimism; whereas optimism hopes to possess, faith believes it has already possessed.

We often time confuse hope for faith. Faith is faith; hope is hope. They are often confused because both are closely related and are a thing of the heart ; as well as love.

Here is what makes faith and hope closely related, yet not the same. Faiths believes, yet hope believes too.

Yes, there is "belief" in hope.

Rom 4:18 Who against hope BELIEVED IN HOPE, that he MIGHT BECOME the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

Hope believes for the future. Faith believes now.

Abraham in this passage was in hope, not faith. For he believed God will do what He had promised him only in the future.

The phrases, "believed in hope" and "that he might become" shows that Abraham was hoping, believing to possess in the future. He was not in faith.

At this point he would never have received his son Isaac.

Whenever we are believing for something, but expecting it to happen in a future date, then we are operating in hope, not faith; and we will fail to have them.

For example, the believer in Christ hopes to be clothed with a new body when he or she exit the earth. See? This is good. It is hope. It is a future thing promised to every believer at the coming of Christ.

Faith believes, but faith believes for the present, not the future.

If faith does not have or receive it now, whether it is manifest physically or not, it is not faith.

For instance, When a believer is sick and trying to receive his or her healing by faith saying, "By His stripes I am healed",and after this confession he or she still see themselves as sick, expecting to be healed maybe tomorrow or a later time, they are not acting in faith. There are only hoping. This is not faith.

Faith is "NOW".

If I confess, "by His stripes I am healed", believing that I have now received the healing whether I feel healed or not, the healing will manifest sooner or later. I am healed regardless of the physical symptoms that may still persist for a while, but no longer.

Not can stand against a believer in faith.

But if I see the healing happening on a later date, and not now, I will stay sick. I really should go get some medication because I am not in faith.

Hope expects for it tomorrow. Faith wants and receives it now.

Abraham received Isaac when he switched from hope to faith as seen in this verse,

Rom 4:19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body NOW dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:

Abraham shifted from, "that he might become" to "now".

He moved from believing in hope to believing in faith, which is now, now, now.

Faith is always now, now, now!

Faith is not wishful thinking.

You can wish all you want, but you will never receive anything from God by wishing.

God wishes for us to be healthy and prosperous,

3John 1:2 Beloved, I WISH above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

But we will never receive His Wishes for our lives by wishful thinking or by wishing it in;we will do so only by faith.

God cannot Wish His desires on us any more than we can wish our desires on ourselves. If He does, He is violating man's will, and we know that He will never never do so. We would only receive His Wishes for us by acting in faith, in line to the Wish.

Jas 1:6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For LET NOT THAT MAN THINK THAT HE SHALL RECEIVE ANY THING OF THE LORD.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

We receive God's blessing, promises and Wishes for us only through faith.

You can get all excited all you want, bubbling with optimism and yet without faith.

Notice that the verse say, "let not that man THINK that he shall RECEIVE anything of the Lord". The problem is not with God giving, but with the man receiving.

The Lord is a giver, and would willingly give us all things we ask of Him. But the problem is with us; can we receive?

He wants to give, but we won't receive without faith.

Can we dare believe we have got the petitions we asked of Him after praying? John 5:14-15.

Faith is not optimism.
It is not mental accent or agreement.
Faith surely "aint" hope.
It is neither wishful thinking.

Faith is being fully persuaded that you have received now, the thing you've asked from God, demanded or commanded, whether you see it happen immediately or not.

Mark 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE THAT YE RECEIVE THEM, and ye shall have them.

So faith believes that it receives them now, and shall have them.

Where you blessed?

Confess This:I am the blessed of the Lord. I receive faith so as to receive all that has already been provided for me in Christ. My mind has been opened and my understanding illuminated with light, I therefore now walk in the newness of faith.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam — 'Dream is not that which you see while sleeping it is something that does not let you sleep.'

However if we do not nurture them, they will die or fade into a figment in our imagination.

Our dreams are meant to be a driving force in our inside, driving us to arriving there in real life; but when this driving force parks up, stagnation becomes reality.

Success requires Consistency as a key ingredient. Consistency would be in place only when our dreams are fresh, cherished and strong in our minds.

1. Identify and avoid dream killers.

Know and refrain as much as possible from those around you that seems to one way or the other always suffocate your aspirations, as seen either by their comments or disposition.

They are no good to your dreams. Intelligently keep them away from your dreams, aspirations and plan if you cannot necessarily avoid them.

2. Accommodate opportunities that will take you closer into attaining your dreams.

Be objectively open to opportunities that present potential of drawing you closer to your dreams.

Do not shy away from them; weigh them, and if they are appropriate, in line and crucial, accepts them.

This opportunities will keep you motivated and serve as a source of great encouragement.

3. See setbacks, as unfortunate as they may seem, as a detour that will ultimately culminate into a vital path of the journey.

Setbacks may delay you, but they will always make you stronger and razor sharper.

You will always never see any good in setbacks at first, but I can assure you that there is a good in it; you will eventually recognize it in the long run.

4. Know the difference between Passion and Interest, and make your dreams your passion.


Your passion is that thing you love doing and will readily put in tremendous efforts if required.

Whereas, your interests are those this you may also love, but never willing to put in as much work as required to getting the best out of it.

For instance, a man passionate about football will go through work to save and get season tickets so as to see his team's home games. But a man with interest in football will be content and grateful to just see the games in flat screen in the comfort of his home.

Make you dreams your passion not just an interest.

5. Never entertain discouragement.

Road blocks, offences, setbacks and hardness may come, but choose not to be discouraged. Discouragement will make nothing better, but worse.

The failures we encounter can be traced to five(5) simple root causes, but let me say a few things things first.

The fear of failing is rearly the reason for failing as mostly perceived.

This is true because for the most part we don't really fear failing, but what we do fear is whether or we have it in us to rise from a terrible fall.

We fear succeeding and not having what it takes to sustain it.

It is not the fear of failing that keeps us from trying, it is the fear of "am I good enough or deserving of this blessing or success."

The fear of failing is not the primary issue, it could be the fear of discovering or manifesting a part of us we never knew existed before, on the road to success.

I am emphasizing on fear because for me, it is not among the five(5) primary reason people fail.

So, here are five(5) simple reasons people fail. People,

1. Underestimate their Strengths.

We fail because we are more conscious and confident about our weaknesses than our strengths. We know pound for pound all our area of weaknesses and how bad it looks, but we know or take to account little or nothing our strengths.

We will seldom succeed if we never come to Identify, Cultivate and Nurture on our strengths rather than on our weaknesses.

2. Underestimate the fruits of Hard Work and Diligence.

Hard work pays. Diligence elevates. Down playing on the importance of these, in building our core values could prove fatal to our success in life.


Our success in life rises or falls on our willingness to be hard working, faithful and deligent.

3. Underestimate the place of Planning.

If we are not planning in any form of the word, we are planning to fail. Either way we are planning.

Planning is never a joyous thing, but I will assure that it is profiting at the end. Time will fail me to talk about the benefits of plan.

Please cultivate the habit of planning. It doesn't matter if it is here or there, witty or clumsy, just plan before you leap.
4. Underestimate the power of "Intentionality".

I really doubt anyone anywhere can be successful in anything without being intentional.

We have to other our affairs on purpose. Check out a previous post I had put up on "Intentionality".

5. Underestimate, disregard and over simplifies Process.

Life is in phases. Processes joins one phase to another. We can't skip process. If we do we will meet it in front multiplied over and sorer.

Time and seasons are integral in the scheme of things in this world. When we underestimate the place of process, we undermine the Power of the universe, the One who keeps everything and all things together.

The world in which we live in today is one that is constantly inventing and reinventing ways in which process could be bypassed; failing to see the bigger picture.

There you have it. Contemplate on this things, identify where you are, then align and constantly evaluate yourself in regards to this truths.

Thank You.

John 20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, BECAUSE THOU HAST SEEN ME, THOU HAST BELIEVED: blessed are they THAT HAVE NOT SEEN, and yet HAVE BELIEVED.

There is faith that believes only what it had seen or perceived to be feasible by the senses. And there is the faith that believes without seeing.

The one is human faith, that depends on visible information; physically tangible stuff. The other is God's faith- bible faith, that depends on invisible information ; spiritually tangible stuff.

Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE THAT YE RECEIVE THEM, and YE SHALL HAVE THEM.

Jesus in this verse is telling us that the Father expects us as His children when we pray to Him, to believe right there that we have received from Him whatever it is we have asked for. He expects us to receive it in faith before we see any physical manifestations of it.

Really there can be no physical manifestation without receiving by faith first in thanksgiving.

It is actually like this because He has already provided us with this things already even before we ask of Him but will only materialize when mixed with our faith; the faith of a human.

You see God is all powerful, and in all His splendor and power He gave man this earth, and if anything is to be achieved in this earth, it most flow through a living man. So God has the power but He in His mercies gave man the sole authority to use that power on earth.

This is why Jesus when He was on earth said His disciples should pray like this, "thy[the Father's] will be done in earth, as it is in heaven", mtt 6:9-13.

You see the Father's will will never be accomplished on earth without a man enforcing it in prayer; in faith. He gave us this privileges. This is why faith is very crucial for the believer here on earth.

But this faith requires one to believe what is foolish to natural men and women. It requires one to believe what is not real to the senses; contrary to human faith.

Faith that appeals to logic is not the faith the Bible teaches. Bible faith is impossible, it is not possible to natural man. It is supernatural and requires God's help. This is why Bible faith is not of man or by man, it is a gift of God to man.

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved THROUGH FAITH; and that not of yourselves: IT[Faith, Grace] IS the gift of God:

It is evident that it takes the ability of God in man to walk by faith(Bible faith) and not by sight(human faith).

Mark 5:39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? THE DAMSEL IS NOT DEAD, BUT SLEEPETH.
40 And they laughed him to scorn...

Bible Faith speaks of what it wants to see, not what it can already see. Human faith speaks what it sees, not what it wants to see.

Human faith sees sickness in it's body and cries "I AM SICK". Bible faith sees same, but rather cries "BY HIS STRIPS I WAS HEALED, therefore I AM WELL".

God's faith, when steered in the face by failure rather declares "I AM A VICTOR, therefore I AM VICTORIOUS." And true, the victory will manifest because God's Word is TRUTH, it can not lie.

2Cor 2:14 Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS causeth us to triumph in Christ,...

Are you are you walking by faith or by sight. Are you taking sides with the Word of God or are opposed to it in you confessions, actions and life choices?

Why not dare believe in God and totally really on Him; trusting Him to be true to His Word in your life.

John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME[Jesus].

Will you dare believe His Word on this and walk in peace and sound mind, free from worries and fears?

If the Word say "let not", then you should "let not". If the Word instructs you to do something, it means you already have the ability from God to carry out such things.

We are to live the Word and not try to rationalize it in our tiny minds. Just obey, His thoughts are higher than ours. He wants to bless you more than you want for yourself.

Prov 30:5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Why not follow His Word by faith.

Yes that situation don't look like it, confess the Word. Yes, you are broke, confess your prosperity in Christ.

Get your faith in your mouth. Never get carried away by the natural, speak what you want to see in your life according to the Will of God, i.e according to His Word.

We are not helping ourselves or anyone else for that matter if we are not walking by faith in the Word.

God needs you to trust in His Word, absolutely. Yes God need you!

As all powerful as He is, He can't and will not do anything on earth without a man; without a man cooperating with His Word.

He has the Power, but He gave man the sole authority to use that Power on earth. So without a man He won't move on earth. Man is His body with which He gets things done on earth. Why don't you be among these men and women.

The opposite is also true. Satan can't do anything on earth without the influence of man. He lacks both the power and authority to do it.

You may ask, didn't Adam give him the authority he had? No, Adam didn't give him the authority. Adam gave him access to the hearts of men. So with the hearts of men in the devils hand, he could use man's authority in the earth to accomplish whatever he pleases.

But thank God we have been delivered by God through His Christ from the authority of the devil.

Col 1:13 Who[the Father] hath DELIVERED US from the power of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED US into the kingdom of his dear Son[Jesus Christ]:


We as Christians actually have all authority and power given to us over Satan and all the forces of darkness. One believer in Christ have all authority Satan and his entire forces.

So why don't we side with the Word of God, dear to trust Him and walk in the Bible faith in which we as believers in Christ are already full of in our spirit.

Yes, every single believer in Christ have the same amount of faith Christ had when He walked the earth; the very same measure.

This is true because, He never expected us to trust Him by our own faith, but by His faith own faith which He puts in us His children.

You see the faith of the new testament believer is different from the faith of those in the old testament. It is different from the Hebrew 11 hall of faith's faith. They acted in faith, but we were given faith; it was imparted into our recreated spirits. I will expound on this on later post.

Just know for now and forever that you as a believer have the very faith of Christ on your inside.

I end this post with this quip from Kenneth E. Hagin(in blessed memory), "You will never be conqueror first and then believe you are one. No, you have to confess it first and then you get there."

Where you blesses?

Confess this: I take sides with the Word of God, therefore I do not frustrate His will and purpose for my life. I dare to live by faith and not by sight; to live not by what is I can perceive by my physical senses but by every Word that proceeds from the Word of God. I am the Word and I chose to live by the Word, for which I am.

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen.

Your posture, body language, attitude, the steps you take, the sacrifices you make, even the quality of your praise shows just as much faith you are walking in.

Even the bunch you decide to hang around with reveals to a large extent your faith towards God and His Word.

I will dare say that our disposition regards to the Word reveals the depth of our faith.

Faith is a substance, and substance here talks about something concrete and tangible; an assurance if you will; an evidence. If it isn't firm on your inside it is not faith, it is just a mental assent or agreement in your head- it is head faith.

You see there is head faith, and also heart faith(which is the Bible faith). I will talk extensively on this on another post.

It is only when we become fully persuaded about what we see, hear and believe from the Word that we will become faith-full and begin to assume a disposition that will position us to receiving from God what He had already accomplished for us in Christ Jesus.

If you take time to study the book of Hebrews chapter 11, the famous Bible chapter on faith(faith hall of fame), you will see the disposition this men and women as mentioned there assumed; obtaining for themselves a good report(Heb 11:2)

So lets see some of the dispositions faith assumes from these verses.

1. Faith speaks of things which do not appear(things that are not seen and brings them into the realm of the physical): Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed BY THE WORD OF GOD, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Faith is seen in the kind of confessions we make. It is seen when we constantly speak God's mind(His Word) over everything, situation, and in every place. You are never in faith until you start confessing what you believe; until you start speaking the Word.

2. Faith offers sacrifices to God(sacrifice of praise, of substance, of time, of love, and so on): Heb 11:4 By faith ABEL OFFERED UNTO GOD a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

Faith is present when we give and continue to give as we have purposed in our heart. You see, we are not in faith each time we struggle in giving of any kind.

God's Word says honor Me with your substance and with the fruit of your increase. It also says, give to the poor and I will pay you back for it. He said in His Word that when we sow, it will come back to us in 30, 60 and an 100 fold.

Now, show me anyone that finds it hard to release anything and I will show you someone that is not walking by faith in God's Word. This is true because, if one really believe the Lord and believes in the integrity of His Word, he will give, considering all His promises towards our giving.

3. Faith walks with God in fellowship(this pleases the Father well ): Heb 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that HE PLEASED GOD. Gen 5:24 And ENOCH WALKED WITH GOD: and he was not; for God took him.

Whenever we shy away from a place of fellowship and intimacy with God, we show our faithlessness. God will never waste your time. Whatever time you invest in His presence both in cooperate fellowship with the brethren(fellow Christians)and in quite time between you and Him; it is a time well invested no matter what.

4. Faith Makes Moves( in reverend regard towards God's instructions): Heb 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, MOVED with fear[reverent regard], prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.

The steps we take in responds to God's Word and Instruction unveils the level of our trust in Him.

Have you been instructed in your heart by God to do anything? Well what are you waiting for, take steps. If you are not, you aren't in faith.


5. Faith Obeys and acts on the Word of God : Heb 11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, OBEYED; AND HE WENT OUT, not knowing whither he went.



This is very simple. If you say you have faith in God and you don't obey and act on His Word, watch yourself.


6. Faith looks at the things which are not seen (it takes into account things that are not real to the physical senses): Heb 11:9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10 For HE LOOKED for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

2Cor 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.

Faith is not moved by what it sees. It is only moved by the unseen realm of the Word of God.


7. Faith judges God to be faithful to fulfill His Word(faith concludes God to be faith every single time to fulfilling His promises toward us) : Heb 11:11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because SHE JUDGED HIM FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED.

Faith accounts, attest and considers God to be faithful in bringing His Word to pass in our lives.

This dispositions goes on and on in this verses. I have given seven, but here is a list of some other attitude faith puts up from the Hebrew 11 text. Faith,

⦁ Confesses what it believes, Heb 11:13-16
⦁ releases blessings on others(not curses), Heb 11:20-21
⦁ believes, hopes, and is patient even till the end; Heb 11:22
⦁ shows fearless courage, Heb 11:23
⦁ abstains from worldly lust, Heb 11:24-26
⦁ perseveres, Heb 11:27

Study through Hebrews 11:1-40, allowing Holy Spirit reveal to you other attitudes faith takes up.

This dispositions may look cumbersome on the surface, but really it shouldn't be. All that the writer of this passages of the Bible(the Epistle to the Hebrews chapter 11) was trying to do under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit was to bring to the knowledge of his readers the fruits, attitude, or evidence their faith should produce.

All the Holy Ghost is communicating through this verses is that the Believer in Christ should enter into the rest of God; a place of complete trust in God and His word.

Faith comes down to trust really. It comes down to our willingness to rest in assurance of His Word, that He is well able and willing to come through for us every time.

If we trust Him, we will assume certain dispositions that will reveal that we really do trust Him.

Heb 4:11 LET US LABOUR THEREFORE TO ENTER INTO THAT[God's] REST, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Heb 4:3 FOR WE WHICH HAVE BELIEVED DO ENTER INTO REST,...


What is your responds like to a negative report, say, a negative report from your doctor? Do you just slip into fear and depression or you dear stand on the Word concerning your health.


Jas 4:7 SUBMIT YOURSELVES THEREFORE TO GOD. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Our victory in life is dependent on how submissive we are to God and to His Word.

Signs of fear, anxiousness or worry on your part reveals the level your submittedness to God. Whenever we are in worry we are in pride and in a state of rebellion against the Word of God.

The above text said we should labor to enter into God's rest. This is because the faith battle to rest is not an easy one, because our minds are inclined to going along with what it could see, hear or feel.

So we constantly have to fight the good fight of faith in staying in the place of God's rest no matter how contrary the situation may seem.

It takes faith to stay calm and at peace when we are late on our rent or faced with the foreclosure of our home because we came short in paying the mortgage. Standing on the Word no matter what is the good fight of faith the Word talks about.


1Tim 6:12 FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, lay hold on eternal life,

The good fight of faith is, sticking to the Word no matter how adverse the situation may appear.

Where you blessed?

Confess this: I walk in faith and total submission to God because the Grace of Christ is available for me to do so. Therefore I live in total victory over life's circumstances and over all the powers and dominion of the enemy. I assume a disposition consistent to what I believe in Jesus name, AMEN!

Mark 4:26 And he said, SO IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD, as if a man should CAST SEED into the ground;
27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.
28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because THE HARVEST IS COME.

The Law of Sowing and Reaping said, give and it will be given back to you in multiplied proportion.

If then Grace had provided us with everything that pertains to life, were is the place of sowing and reaping, don't we already have everything in Christ?

Firstly, Grace cannot be taken out of the law of sowing and reaping any more than the law of sowing and reaping taken or wished away from Grace.

Grace available to mankind today is founded on this very law.

Christ sowed Himself in the grave and reaped for Himself the whole world when he rose from it; however only those who will come to Him in faith will receive it.

The Father to sowed His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ the Savior, that He might take up as a harvest countless begotten sons with Christ Jesus.

I will refrain from using this word "law", even though it is law, before we begin to associate it with the law of Moses. Sowing and reaping is a principle in God;a protocol around His very nature if you will. It predates the law of Moses.

This principle has been before time itself began.

Gen 1:3 And GOD SAID, Let there be light: and there was light.

According to Jesus Christ on His parable of the Sower, words are seeds in the kingdom of God, and if what He said is true(which it is because He is Truth,) then the phrase "and God said, let there be light" were seeds sown by God in the beginning, and the harvest was "and there was light."

So you now see that this principle of sowing and reaping is a protocol around God, and it is on this principle that the whole world is sustained. He sowed His Word and He reaped the universe.

Gen 8:22 WHILE the earth remaineth, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night SHALL NOT CEASE.

Secondly, you aren't sowing anything that God in His Mercy and Grace had not sown in Christ already.

What you are doing each time you sow a seed, maybe in cash or kind to someone, you are actually giving a body to the seed God had already sown in Christ for that person.

You see, that person probably prayed earlier that day for provision, which is a seed of prayer, and then God in turn used your own seed of cash or kind as the harvest to that person.

Now, that provision had already been provided by Christ on the cross, but it only came to that person as a harvest when you decided to act in faith in giving to that person; so in effect, your giving gave body(as harvest) to what Christ had already provided(as seed).


So, you thought you were sowing a seed(which you actually were), but God was using that seed as a harvest(a body to the seed He already sowed in Christ)to that person in manifestation.

When we sow, to us it is seed, but to the person, family or organization receiving, it is. And by the time you are receiving your own harvest, it is seed sowing to the person releasing it.

God bless man by a man. Stop expecting Him to come down from heaven. Not only that He wouldn't, but He couldn't because He gave man full authority on earth(Gen 1:26). This is why when He was to save man He had to come as Man, the very Christ Jesus.

May God give you understanding for this, cause if you do understand this, giving and receiving will become effortless to you. Yes we do have to learn how to receive as well as learning to give.

So when you give in any fashion, you are giving body, form or substance(which is harvest) to what Grace had already provided for the recipient. And this will return again back to you in multiple proportion, in 30, 60, and a 100 fold.


Know that when an harvest is coming back to you it comes in the form God wills. If you sowed money, you may receive money in fact, but at another time it may come in another wrapper.

1Cor 15:37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
1Cor 15:38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

You may be saying I have been sowing and sowing and sowing, where is the harvest, well it could be any of two things:

1. The bigger the tree the longer it will take to grow and bear fruit. So, as Rev. Biodun Fatoyinbo would say, "could it be, could it just be" that your harvest is delayed because it is coming big and latest? Think about it.

2. The harvest might had already been delivered but you just failed to recognize the body it came in with. May be you sowed heavily toward a project but it came back in your Children excelling above and beyond over their contemporaries.

2Cor 9:10 Now HE[God] THAT MINISTERETH SEED TO THE SOWER both minister bread for your food, and MULTIPLY YOUR SEED SOWN, and increase the fruits of your righteousness

You can never run out of seeds to sow. If you do, it is either because your eyes are not open to what you could give, or because your heart is not set to sow. For God will always give seeds to the sower. A sower never lacks seeds to sow.

However how small that seed you think you are sowing is, if it comes form a sincere place in your heart, the Lord will multiply that seed sown and the harvest you will receive will come as a shock to you, to the amazement of the one who thought he sowed higher.

Another thing to know is this, Your seeds sown never leaves your hand, they only go into your future to wait for you there. So whenever a chance presents itself for you to be a blessing to others, please take it, and do it with this understanding so as to do it with cheerfulness.

And if chances don't present themselves for you to bless others, please create them yourself.


Where you blessed?

Confess This: With this understanding of sowing and reaping, I therefore receive seeds in my hands to sow Father, and I know you will also increase my seeds sown that it may return to me in your time 30, 60, or an 100 fold. My eyes are constantly open to avenues with which I can be a blessing to my neighbors, Amen!

Permit me to tell you why emotions are such bad leaders but great followers.

Have you notice how things whined up badly when done out of some feeling or emotion(or spur of the moment of some sort), especially when done through any minimal contemplation of any kind?

Haven't you regretted afterwords, making an important life decision based on a whim? It is because emotions are such bad leaders.

Our emotions are not smart. Someone said "emotions are without brains". You need to give your emotions the passenger's seat not the driver's, or you will pay for it later.

Truly, our emotions are very very important, and we can accomplish much with them, only when wisdom is applied with it - this is where taking the lead comes in.

Emotions are like YO-YO's, they are these now and that immediately after, ever changing and for the majority of the time should not to be trusted.

For example, if you really want to get a job done, you will have to really dig your heels in and stick with it regardless off how you feel or don't feel. And when you stick with it long enough even though you started not feeling like doing any of it, you will realize that you emotions will catch up and become excited eventually; see, good followers.


Leading your feelings is of great important so much so that I think anyone would really become successful without, because, carrying out the simplest tasks such as making you own bed or doing the dishes after dinner could become so burdensome when feelings are allowed to lead how much more real tasking ones.

Here are reasons among many why putting your feelings first or allowing them to lead would be a terrible thing to do:

1. Feelings are never reliable or dependable: for a moment they are excited doing a particular thing and the very next, they are not; and that without substantial reasons.

2. Emotions are circumstantial and could be easily influence by it's environment; this right here particularly makes for a bad leader.

3. Emotions are short sighted: your feeling will never put the long term into consideration. It is very NOW and NARROW minded.

4. Emotions are self seeking: self centeredness is a terrible quality for any one leader. A true mark of leadership is selflessness, and your emotions will fall short here every time. If your feelings will do any selfless act, it will do it with a reward in mind in the near view; but we know that true leaders will rather do what will profit others more, than themselves.

5. Emotions will never appreciate the place of hard work, it will always seek for shortcuts; and they are no such in the road to sustainable success.

6. Emotions are not intelligent. Have you not seen highly intelligent peaple do stupid things? It was their emotions. You will end up doing things you would rather not when you allow your emotions to take lead.

7. Emotions tends to tilt towards cowardice. Those time when you took a bold step towards what you where convicted about, it was your WILL, not your emotions. I bet your emotions had said "no, don't do it, it is a terrible idea".


"I am going to change the world", you may say; well, while that's a great idea, change yourself first.

"I will be a great manager someday", good; how well are you managing your own affairs.

"I will be the president of my country someday", very nice; do you even make your bed when you wake up? I can bet you that people will not want a leader that considers making his or her bed after as such a great task, or would you?

Here is the singular most powerful reason why emotions are great followers. "A Sense of Fulfillment" is a strong emotion that drives and propel us to stay on track and soar higher, but it only comes to us after we had stock long enough doing the right thing even when we didn't fill like it.

Take the LEAD!

Rom 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by THE LAW OF FAITH.

Faith takes a disposition to what it believes. Bible faith is simply aligning, with corresponding action to what one has believed from the Word.

Faith is according to the Word, is, the fulfillment(or enforcing) of what had already been said or spoken concerning a matter by acting on it.

So if the promise of God as seen from scripture says you shall live and not die, faith then comes in a situation that would have warranted death and preserve the life, fulfilling that scripture.

So it is also with receiving the person of Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and what His finished works has provided after His sufferings, death, burial and resurrection. Every in the Word can only be received by faith.

This is a Word of promise from scripture for example,

Gen 22:18 And IN THY SEED shall ALL the nations of the earth be BLESSED; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

and this is how the law of faith concerning that promise after it fulfillment in Christ would respond:

Rom 10:9 That IF THOU SHALT CONFESS with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and SHALT BELIEVE in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, THOU SHALT BE SAVED.


In a nut shell this is what the "Law of Faith" is: it is seeing or hearing about the goodness of God in His promises towards us and the blessings and power supplied by the works of Christ(Grace), believing or trusting in Him in that light and then, taking a disposition to that effect to appropriate it to your circumstances.

In fact for the new testament believer, there is only a few promises left(to be received or revealed on the Lord's day), every other thing has been given to us in Christ already. This a whole other teaching, so look out for it. For now see Eph 1:3,11; 2Pet 1:3-4.

From all these you will see that believing is just a part; but taking a disposition in alignment to what we claim to believe makes it perfect; Rom 10:9 reveals this. It said, "... if thou shalt confess with thy mouth..., and shall believe". The passage is saying you don't believe alone(talking about "position", but to confess also(talking about disposition).

Believing without corresponding action is lifeless faith as seen in James 2:20, "... faith[believing] without works[corresponding action] is dead". Believing in the other hand, with corresponding action, that is taking a disposition with it, is living faith. Perfect faith, as also seen in James 2:22, "seest thou how faith[believing] wrought with his works, and by works[corresponding action] was faith made perfect?".


I really want you to see this. This is not works, it is the law of faith; how faith works. So don't misunderstand this and slip into works. As I said in a previous post, faith and works are flip sides of the same coin. But there is a difference.[check out that post].

In a subsequent post, I will teach about the various dispositions faith takes.

Here is where legalistic or those who trust in their works miss the whole thing. They see and hear of the same promises and blessings provided by the finished works of Christ, but instead of receiving by faith(i.e. trusting in His Grace and then taking a disposition), they go about showing to God their records of good works in other to get God to give them this promises, bypassing totally or partially(equally disastrous) the place of faith in Christ who is the provider of this thins. By so doing negating the Grace of God in their life.

Gal 5:4 Christ is become of NO EFFECT unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; YE ARE FALLEN FROM GRACE.

Rom 9:32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

Whoever is bypassing faith in Christ and establishing their own righteousness, is stumbling over the stumbling block, Christ Jesus who was to be their salvation,

Rom 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

Get out of your own way and trust in Jesus alone. Stop trusting in the amount of giving you do, the hours of prayer and fasting you engage in, neither your commitment to a local church . Never catch yourself saying, "Lord am I not faithful in doing such and such where are the results, where are the blessings?" In as much as there are rewards for faithfulness, it is disobedience to the law of faith to trust in your faithfulness; because what you are actually do is choking your seeds sown by such statements.

If ever you understand this you will stop making such statements(so check out my teaching on "The Law of Sowing and Reaping".

We are only to trust in the finished works of Christ, not ours.

Whatever we do for God should come from a position of love. And this can only be achieved by the faith of Christ in us.

It is critical we fully understand this because as humans we always tilt to a performance based system, where we have earn every thing that comes to us or as Andrew Wommack will fondly put it, "were we get all we can, can all we get and then seat on the can". This system does not fly with God in the new covenant. He has given us all things to enjoy that pertains to life and godliness, that all we need to do it just believe Him for them and receive them.

No more are we expected to work for the blessings of God as in the old covenant.

So stop trying to attain to what had already been provided in Christ, by your own efforts. Just rest in the warmth of His embrace and see faith supplied to you from every direction to receive from the abundance of His Grace.

Quit "Doing" and start "Being".


Where you blessed?

Confess this: I believe in my heart that God raise up Jesus Christ from the dead, and today I confess Him as my Lord and Savior. Therefor the scripture that says, "whosoever believeth on the Lord Jesus Christ shall not be put to shame" becomes true in my Life; in Jesus name, Amen.

Rom 3:27 Where is BOASTING then? It is excluded. By what law? OF WORKS? Nay: but by the law of faith.

For one to fully understand and tap into the fullness of what Grace is, and provides, we must or should at least understand what "The law of works" is.

The first and foremost thing one should know about "The law of works" is that it is a contract or covenant entered into based on a reward system in which the rewards could be accessed only when the full term of work is met.

Here is the contracts of the law of works according to scripture:

Deut 28:1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do ALL HIS COMMANDMENTS which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:

Deut 27:26 Cursed be he that confirmeth not ALL the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen.

Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in ALL THINGS which are written in the book of the law to do them.

See, it is all or nothing in this system. If you can't meet up with all, you are cursed(no reward), it doesn't matter how nearly you came close. If your neighbor met 10% and you 99.999%, you both are still on the same boat as much as this system is concerned. It is difficult to imagine right? Well look at it here in the Word,

Jas 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in ONE point, he is guilty of ALL.

So if you are a 1 or a 99 in this system you are intrinsically the same, Fallen Short!

I have always wondered why some people are so full of themselves that they actually believe there can qualify or attain to the demands of the law on their own, without Christ, knowing fully well that the Word says in James 4:17 that, " Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin."


The bible says "rejoice evermore[every when, i.e. at all times]", so if I am to interpret the above passage of the bible, the very fact that one fails to rejoice always after seeing this in the Word of God, is sin; because it says, "to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin."

See, on this system, you will always fall short; don't waste your time. For " For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" Rom 3:23.

You can't attain to this on your own. That is why God, who is the perfect one had to come in the flesh to attain to this by Himself, on our behalf.

So the "law of work" is a covenant or a contract between the Perfect God and imperfect humanity(his creations), in which man came infinitely short. But the "law of faith(which I will talk about on another post)" is a covenant or contract between God and Himself(i.e. Jesus Christ) in which we are only a beneficiary(an heir or inheritor) by faith. Which do you prefer?

Here is a secret about works and faith, they are the same thing. Have you ever seen from the bible terms such as"works of the law" and "works of faith"? Haven't you took notice that there are the same thing but applied differently. yes the difference is in application based on an understanding or a mindset.

Works of the law does the commandment to attain to some kind perfection or right standing with God, whereas works of faith had already attained by faith in Christ a right standing with God but is now fulfilling or bearing fruits of what is already attained.

Look at this. If a man that is under the law lies not or steals not, he does this to attain to right standing with God(self righteousness). But if a man of faith under grace lies not or steals not, he does it not to attain to right standing with God but as one fulfilling or acting out who he now is in Christ(which is , Righteous; 2Cor 5:21).

The one in Christ no longer have to obey a set of "do's" and "don'ts", he has liberty. If he performs righteous acts and deeds according to the word of God, he is doing it because he is the Word. He is born of the Word, so he is the Word; so he is only acting or showing forth who he is by nature.

1Pet 1:23 Being BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by THE WORD OF GOD, which liveth and abideth for ever.

1John 3:9 Whosoever is BORN OF GOD[the Word] doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

1Cor 6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

The one in Christ is one with Christ. So if Christ is the Word(John 1:14), then the one born of Christ is also the Word.

So when a believer do the Word, he is showing forth, displaying his through nature. But the one in legalism, under the law is doing basically the same thing, but without power and with struggle; and the end death (Gal 3:10-12).

Where you blessesd?

Confess this: I acknowledge that I am dead by the deeds of the law but alive only in Christ, therefore today I confess you Jesus as the Christ and I believe in my heart that God raised you from the dead, therefore I am now saved in You. Hallelujah!

Col 2:9 For IN HIM dwelleth ALL the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
10 And YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM, which is the HEAD OF ALL principality[ruler] and power[authority]:

Some say that being born again is the first step after which you will need to follow some other stringent rules in other to guarantee your place in heaven or to find favor with God. They say you will have to do a set of other things to stay in the good books of God.

Have you ever heard this, "you will have to Pay price to work in this or that anointing"? Let me just tell you this, Christ has paid all the price for you there is to pay. Any other price you think your are paying or should pay is fruitless. Please don't stop reading, continue on.

Any thing or process you are going through now by the help of the Holy Ghost for spiritual growth-what you may be tempted to call paying price, is nothing but applying yourself to grow in the knowledge of the depth and benefits of the price Christ had already paid. Please understand this, You are not the one paying anything. Imagine your father spending 10 years of his life savings for a car he wants to get you for your sixteenth birthday and you, after getting this car go around telling your friends of the price you payed learning to actually drive the car. Isn't that what you were suppose to do after such a gift? It is no price - your dad did the price paying.

So also is your journey to spiritual maturity in Christ, it is a duty not a price. You see, you actually owe it to yourself to study and pray so as to getting a revelation about such great a love displayed by God your Father in sending His Son to die on the cross for you, then sending the Holy Spirit in your heart to teach about the very same love.

The Word of God from the above verses is presenting to us that the believer is Completed, perfected and filled in Christ(that is, in his or her Spirit) Who is the Head of all principality and power.

Heb 10:14 For by one offering he[CHRIST JESUS] HATH PERFECTED FOR EVER them[THE BELIEVER] that are SANCTIFIED.

Notice the term "hath" as stated in the above verse, notice that it is in the past tense. This signifies that the perfection is a done deal for anyone that will receive Christ, that is become sactified in Him.

The perfection is both forever! So there should be no addendum whatsoever.

It is very strange when a Believer in Christ is asked to come out for deliverance. Deliverance from what? from Christ? Some would say deliverance from generational curses or from family alters. Family what? Don't you know who you are in Christ? Colosians 1:13,

13 Who HATH DELIVERED US from the POWER[authority, jurisdiction, liberty, right, strength] of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED[transferred] US INTO THE KINGDOM OF HIS DEAR SON[Son of His Love]:

Yes Believers may be oppressed, depressed, or obsessed by spiritual forces contrary to Christ, and the term "deliverance" may be used while referring to setting them free from such bondage, however it is not consistent with scripture. The term deliverance is used in the Word of God referring only to the one time deliverance from the kingdom of darkness to light.

Any other experience we may call deliverance apart from the translation from one kingdom to the other is in reality a manifestation of the former.

Don't you no that you are in this world but not of the world, and that the things that is true for others cannot be true for you unless you allow it? Don't you know that you have been delivered from the power and authority of generational curses or foundation alters and from the devil and his cohorts into the Kingdom of light.

Don't you know that you are dead to the things of this world?

Col 3:3 For YE ARE DEAD, and YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD.
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then SHALL YE ALSO APPEAR WITH HIM IN GLORY.

The life you now life as a Believer you are living as Christ; for your life and His life has become intertwined together. Your spirit has become lost and merged as one in His Spirit(1Cor 6:17), that's why as He is in Heaven right now so are you in this world(1John 4:17.)

The Believer in Christ is very complete in Him. So if the believer is complete and perfected, where is the place of spiritual growth?

Spiritual growth is a teaching for another day, but what I will say now about it is that, spiritual growth is the process of retraining the mind to align its self with the Word and the new reality which the Believer has entered in Christ. This should be accomplished by the studying of the Word. It is the Believer growing in knowledge so as to use appropriately everything that is available to him or her in Christ.

Col 2:20 If you have died with Christ to the elemental spirits of the world, WHY DO YOU SUBMIT TO THEM as though you lived in the world?[NET].

Do not submit one day to what limited your parents and blood line, do not subscribe to it one bit. Exercise and exert your authority against them; you do this by constantly keeping the Word in your mouth, keep confessing who you are now in Christ.

Were you blessed

Confess this: I am complete in Christ Jesus. What happened to my ancestry has no power against me whatsoever, my life is perfectly hid in Christ.

Life is a collection of times and seasons. One will never catch a break from it - even that is time. As one is exiting from one season, he is entering into another;it is a continuous cycle. Think about it.

Crops for example have their different seasons with which they flourish. While some do well in this others don't and would do well at another.

Time makes up for seasons as seasons makes up life. How well you maximize time culminates into your seasons and consequently your life.

Time should be invested not spent. Why not pay now and play later rather than the contrary. The irony here is that in both ways there is a "paying" - you determine whether it is now or later.

The success of a season should not be measured by the level of productivity. You might be in a season where everything is working well and as planned, enjoy it. If you are at a season things seems not to be going with the flow you envisaged, don't get discouraged, resist the temptation to quit, rather make the most of what you have.

Like trees, you may thrive in some seasons and kind off go through the motions in others, but remember to make the must out of both, trees do.


The season an average tree for example will not naturally thrive, blossom or bloom, it will spend spreading it's roots downward into the ground to access as much water it can reach to stay alive through that season. In doing this, this tree actually becomes stronger and builds more resistance against wild climate.

Things may not be going as planned or at the pace you hoped. Are you out of a job or on a leave from work nursing a child? Are you using this rather spear time to growing your capacity? Are you growing your asset or you are just coasting through this time waiting till you hit a break?

One season incubates the other, so your tomorrow will look like the child of your yesterday. If you want a healthy child tomorrow invest your today into something productive.

There are two kinds of time,

Time one : These are the times when you are in your element. Here you are very active doing such and such thing or projects. You actually thrive in this moment of time based on how well you have utilized "Time two".

Time two : These are times where no one will actually see you. Here all your plans are only in your head and on paper, nothing much, things seemingly looking slow. However this is also the best and most favorable time to deepen your roots and reach for the deepest treasures on your inside.

If you are in time two now, you are in a great time. Here you have good time for yourself to grow in capacity, to feed and grow your mind, work the emotions(becoming more emotionally intelligent). Read books relevant to your giftedness, attend seminars or webinars, take up mentor-ship programs etc. Get an education or further if that's where you are. Life is to precious, don't waste any of it accomplishing too little. Use time to your advantage, you actually have power over it. Invest it rather than lavishing it on idleness.

He that observeth the wind and will not sow will beg in the time of harvest.

Rom 8:1 There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION to THEM which are IN CHRIST JESUS, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Rom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.(NET)

The clause "who walk not after the flesh," in the king James version, was not in the earliest text but was later added by Scribes. Later on the text "but after the Spirit" was also added.

The scribes were evidently motivated to add such qualifications (interpolated from v.4) to insulate Paul’s gospel from charges that it was characterized too much by grace.

4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

4 so that the righteous requirement of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.(NET)

There is no more condemnation for the believer in Christ! The word translated "Condemnation" in Romans 8:1, is the Greek word "Katakrima" which means, "an adverse sentence (the verdict)". It speaks with reference to the Divine judgment against sin.

There is no judgment for the Believer against sin. Jesus Christ took it all upon Himself.

Sin cannot be punished twice; it will be injustice - God is Just. Christ already satisfied the claims of justice against man once and for all by His great sacrifice, on the cross.

God punished sin on Christ His Son, once. We are made free, justified, by the life of Christ(Rom 4:25).

Romans 5:18,

18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to CONDEMNATION; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto JUSTIFICATION of life.

Divine sentence for sin came by the sin of one man (Adam) to all people, even so Eternal justification came upon all men(to be manifest only on those who would receive it.)

The Believer is completely justified in Christ!

The word translated "Justication" in Romans 5:18, is the Greek word "Dikaiosis", it means, "acquittal(for Christ's sake)."

So the Believer is discharged and acquitted from all charges layed against him. The devil can no longer condemn him, if he does, it is as a reason of sheer ignorance on the path of the Believer.

The devil can no longer accuse the Believer; he has no Case!

Whenever a Believer is taken by a fault or commits sin, he no longer needs to soak, beat himself up, or allow the devil to bring groundless accusation against him, but needs to rejoice praise God in the Advocate he has in Jesus Christ his Lord, 1John 2:1:

1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an ADVOCATE with the Father, JESUS CHRIST the righteous:

The word "Advocate" as translated from the original Greek word "Parakletos" conveys the meaning:
1. (properly) one called near (to give help)
2. an intercessor (one who entreats on behalf of another)
3. a comforter

Jesus Christ is one called near to give help. He will never leave no forsake the Believer in Him. He forever lives to make intercessions for the Believer(the one in Him; Heb 7:5)

Christ and the Believer in Him are righteously stuck with each other forever. There are become one Spirit (1Cor 6:17). What can not be seen of one cannot be sin of the other(in the spirit).

What cannot touch Christ cannot touch the Believer in Christ. There is no condemnation in Christ, there is no condemnation for the Believer in Christ.

Were you bless.

Confess this: There is no more condemnation for me in Christ. What is not true in Christ Jesus cannot be true for me also. Christ is in me glorified and I am in Him justified.

Curiosity is Everything.

It is the mother of every invention that have come out of the minds of men and women since the beginning of their time.

Curiosity is the key that unlocks the innovations and ideas locked in the heart of men or women.

If you will master it, curiosity is a game changer. It has the power to change the very things you thought impossible to ever experience change.

Here are a few things about curiosity.


1.Whatever you focus on explodes. It multiplies beyond your wildest imagination. Could it be that you are not getting anything out of life because you are not curious enough, because you have not beamed your flash light of curiosity upon it?

2.There is more to everything than meets the eye. Everything in life is detailedly construct from minute to enormous, take for example the simplest of cells in a living body to the complex make up of the organ called the heart; this is extraordinary. There is always more - you just have to be curious enough to look for it and eventually find it.

3.If you think you know anything, you don't know it as yet, at least as you ought to. Truly, the more you know, the more you realize that you don't know. If you are sincere with yourself you will realize that the smarter you become, the dumber you feel.

4.Curiosity is a step further from inquisitiveness. To be inquisitive is wanting to know HOW and WHY, but to be curious is wanting to know HOW, WHY and even WHY-NOT. Ideas birth inventions and innovations. The HOW's conceives the idea, the WHY's matures this idea, and the WHY-NOT's births the baby called invention or innovation.The answer is in the WHY-NOT, and it is the curious hearts that ever...

4.Curiosity is a step further from inquisitiveness. To be inquisitive is wanting to know HOW and WHY, but to be curious is wanting to know HOW, WHY and even WHY-NOT. Ideas birth inventions and innovations. The HOW's conceives the idea, the WHY's matures this idea, and the WHY-NOT's births the baby called invention or innovation.The answer is in the WHY-NOT, and it is the curious hearts that ever...

Col 1:14 IN WHOM we have redemption through his blood, even the FORGIVENESS OF SINS:

How much has the Believer been forgiven?

The ministers set in the church has preached sin and sin consciousness; rather drilling into the Believer condemnation, guilt and inferiority in a bid to teach them the place of moral separation from the evil deeds of the world.

The church must now know and be able to differentiate between righteousness as a POSITION, and righteousness as a DISPOSITION.

The Believer in Christ is made righteous with the righteousness of God Himself; this is positional righteousness. The Believer in Christ is righteous with God's righteousness, whether he or she acts like it or not, it does not change a thing.

2Cor 5:21 For he[God] hath made him[Jesus] to be sin for US, who knew no sin; that WE might be MADE the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD in him.

Rom 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just[righteous], and the JUSTIFIER[RIGHTEOUSNESS] OF HIM WHICH BELIEVETH IN JESUS.

The Believer stands righteous in Christ; he or she has been made so. The Believer in Christ is created righteous WITH THE VERY RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD.

The new man and woman in Christ is created in the image of God, which is in righteousness and true holiness (Eph 4:24). He has been created this way in Christ.

Now, "dispositional" righteousness or fruit of righteousness as in biblical term is simply what plays out after the Believer have gotten his mind renewed.

Eph 4:24 And that ye PUT ON the new man, which after God is CREATED in righteousness and true holiness.

Putting the above scripture (Eph 4:24) in it'S proper context, by this, I mean considering the pretext and post-text of the above text in order to gets it's proper context,

Ephesians 4:22-25:

22 That ye PUT OFF concerning the former conversation[lifestyle] the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
23 And be RENEWED in the spirit of your MIND;
24 And that ye PUT ON the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
25 Wherefore PUTTING away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

This passages are telling the born again Believer in Christ that is already made righteous(V 24), to PUT OFF and PUT ON.

Put off what?, "... putting away lying". Put on what?, "... speak every man truth".

The writer, inspired by the Holy Ghost is addressing the need for the Believer to get his or her mind renewed (v 23). Therefor, the putting off and on, is to be done in the mental realm.

The Believer is made righteous and perfected forever in his spirit(Heb 10:12). However his mind (which is in his "soulish" realm - mind, will, emotion) must be renewed by the word of God.

It is right to note here that fruits of righteousness(or righteousness from your disposition) is very different from self righteousness or righteousness o the law.

Self righteousness is trying to meet God's standards by your own works or deed. This won't cut it, God's standard is to high for any mortal man to meet, that is why Jesus Christ had to come.

Fruit of righteous are righteous deeds that comes from a place of love in your spirit. It is nothing done to please God or to meet up with any standard. It is just a new man acting out his true nature, gotten from His Father.

This cannot be overemphasized enough. There needs be a putting off (in putting away the former way of life that the mind had become accustomed to), and a putting on (in replacing the former way of life with the principles the Gospel of Christ teaches).

So the Believer in Christ needs to be continually looking at Christ through His Word (the bible) and become transformed mentally according to His image, 2 Corinthians 3:18:

18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are CHANGED into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

The change is to happen in the "soulish" realm (in the mind), because the Believer is already exactly like Christ in his spirit and thus, does not need any change there; it is his or her mind that needs change(repentance, transformation).

The Holy Spirit is the only One who can help the Believer accomplish this transformation through the Word.

So any believer committing sin, is a saint that is acting besides himself (i.e acting contrary to his or her intrinsic new nature), not looking at his or her original new self in the mirror (or light) of the Word of God. But the more this Believer begin to hear and study the Word, the more he or she will begin to see Christ, and as this happens, the more he or she begins to see his or her true self in Christ. And in no time, an effortless change in lifestyle will begin to manifest.

The sin of the whole world have been forgiven forever! But God will not force it on anyone, it has to be received willingly. So however will accept Christ as Lord will have their sins forgiven (taken out of the way) forever.

Col 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having FORGIVEN YOU ALL TRESPASSES;

Heb 10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins FOR EVER, sat down on the right hand of God;

Heb 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I[God] REMEMBER NO MORE.

Heb 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to SAVE THEM to the UTTERMOST that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Heb 10:14 For by one offering he hath PERFECTED FOR EVER them that are SANCTIFIED.

So the Believer is positionally righteous and should also be dispositionally righteous (i.e bear fruit of his or her righteousness), by studying to know who they are in Christ.

As the Believer rely on the abundant Grace of God (Rom 6:14)and the leading of the Spirit(Gal 5:16), he begins to bear fruit of righteousness.

Where you blessed.

Confess this: I have been forgiven in Christ to the uttermost!

Eph 1:7 IN WHOM we have REDEMPTION through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

It is only in Christ the man or woman can find redemption. It is through the sacrifice of Himself the world have found redemption.

The redemption is to and for all of mankind; but only to those who have taken and would receive it will the new life be imparted to.

The word translated, "redemption" in the above epistle was in the original greek text as, "apolutrosis" and it conveys the meaning, "ransom in full".

The Believer in Christ has been ransomed in full from, sin (Eph 1:7; Col 1:14; Titus 2:14), the curse of the law (Gal 3:13, 4:5), his or her former way of life (lifestyle; 1Pet 1:18).

Col 1:13 Who[God] hath DELIVERED us from the power[authority] of darkness, and hath TRANSLATED us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

The Believer has also been redeemed from the authority and dictatorship of Satanic kingdom, and of it's darkness. So the devil and his cohorts has lost it's influence over the Believer.

On no grounds or circumstance should sin, death, the devil, or any other force lord it over the Believer in Christ.

All the resources that are available in this kingdom of our Lord(kingdom of His the Son of His[God's] love, Col 1:3) is available to The man and woman in Christ, every single one, in it's fullness.

Every thing that Christ wrought in His redemptive work is for the believer. The Glory that He entered afterwords is also for the believer in Him, "... I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."(John 14:2-3)

Christ wasn't talking about a place he had prepared to receive us in the Lord's day (rapture, second coming), He was referring here to the place the Believer will take in Him after is resurrection from the dead. The Believer is in that place right now, we are in Him!

The Believer in Christ has been called by the Gospel (the preaching of Jesus Christ), to the obtaining of the Glory our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Thes 2:14).

We share in His Glory.

John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I AM COME THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE LIFE, and that they might have it more abundantly.

However it most be noted that, the forgiveness of sins was not the main purpose for redemption. It's main purpose is to bring man from death that he was in (death here is not the cessation of life, but rather separation from God) to life (Eternal life).


You may say, but what about sin?

The forgiveness of sin was a necessary route Jesus Christ must need pass through to get to His main objective. We could say that, the forgiveness of sin was a necessary detour for Christ to take to imparting Eternal life to His man or woman that was dead in sin and trespasses (Col 3:13; Eph 2:1).

Jesus said, "I Am come that they might have live"; abundant life!

Sin, which brought death to the world, was the thing standing between Christ and His man and woman, so He needed to go through it, deal with, get it out of the way, and then impart to us His own life, which is Life Eternal; Life Everlasting.

Praise God, we are in the fullness of life now; this is true for those that are in Christ, because, "... of His fullness have all we received"

Hope you were blessed!

Confess This : Of His fullness have I received, Grace upon Grace, and I am complete in Him. In Him I have newness of life, and by it I can now live life to it's fullness. I reign as king and queen in life. Amen!

Do you want to be a total master at what you are doing or be at the very echelon? Get in to you path and stay there.

One of the greatest temptation you will ever face and continue to face as a person, is the temptation of doing whatever is working for the next person or happens to be in trend.

This is a true temptation because, you may be going through your own process and become weary of it by the reason of it's seemingly slow pace as compared with the pace of the other person.

It will be good to note at this point that that person you are admiring his prosperity may have gone through his own process behind the blinds and is now reaping the fruit. So you see him now and starts dreaming of becoming as successful, not considering the fact that he stood in his path.

Another valid temptation is the temptation of trying to cut corners to getting faster to your envisioned destination.

Put in the effort now, do what you've got to do now, enjoy the process, stay in the path, don't try to rush things, rather allow things to flow naturally. In doing this you will grow as your enterprise in growing.

If you cut corners, you enterprise might grow, but you won't.

Here is wisdom,
