Always pray in the Holy Spirit and never stop praying no matter how tedious, occupied, distracting, noisy, demanding e.t.c your work, studies or business appears *that is* open your mouth/mind/heart and pray in the Holy Spirit ( *Pray in human languages, pray in tongues of the Holy Spirit, sing in human languages and sing in the tongues of the Holy Spirit*)

"But you, my friends, keep on building yourselves up on your most sacred faith. Pray in the power of the Holy Spirit"
(Jude 1 : 20 )

"Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occasion, as the Holy Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for all God's people." (Eph.6:18)
Great Grace Brethren!!!

it is *only by the grace from Jesus Christ* that any man/woman who encounters *bad-behaviors/attitudes* to still go ahead *manifesting love/care/concern* towards them. We continue seeking *mercy and grace* from the throne of God's grace. The *best life on this earth* is to live by *grace from Jesus Christ* for it is where *genuine love is expressed*
Great Grace!!!

"By this time the crowd, unwieldy and stepping on each other’s toes, numbered into the thousands. *But Jesus’ primary concern was his disciples*. He said to them, “Watch yourselves carefully so you don’t get contaminated with Pharisee yeast, Pharisee phoniness{Hypocrisy}. You can’t keep your true self hidden forever; before long you’ll be exposed. You can’t hide behind a religious mask forever; sooner or later the mask will slip and your true face will be known. You can’t whisper one thing in private and preach the opposite in public; the day’s coming when those whispers will be repeated all over town."
{Luke 12:1-3 MSG}

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy{every Believer}, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, *that by them you may wage the good warfare, 19 having faith and a good conscience*, which *some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck*, 20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.

"Those who are sinning rebuke in the presence of all, that the rest also may fear."

Re: The Christian Chatbox ( sticky) by ochibuogwu5: 4:30am On Jul 17, 2019
"Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses. 20 Those who are sinning rebuke in the presence of all, that the rest also may fear.

21 I charge you before God and the Lord Jesus Christ and the elect angels that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing with partiality. 22 Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people’s sins; keep yourself pure.

23 No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent infirmities.

24 Some men’s sins are clearly evident, preceding them to judgment, but those of some men follow later. 25 Likewise, the good works of some are clearly evident, and those that are otherwise cannot be hidden.
(1 Timothy 5:19-25 NKJV)

"Do not accept an accusation against an elder unless it is based on [the testimony of at least] two or three witnesses. 20 As for those [elders] who continue in sin, reprimand them in the presence of all [the congregation], so that the rest will be warned. 21 I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels that you guard and keep these rules without bias, doing nothing out of favoritism. 22 Do not hurry to lay hands on anyone [ordaining and approving someone for ministry or an office in the church, or in reinstating expelled offenders], and thereby share in the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.

23 No longer continue drinking [only] water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.

24 The sins of some people are conspicuous, leading the way for them into judgment [so that they are clearly not qualified for ministry]; but the sins of others appear later [for they are hidden and follow behind them]. 25 Likewise, good deeds are quite evident, and those which are otherwise cannot be hidden [indefinitely]. {1 Timothy 5:19-25 amp}

"...Teach these things, Timothy, and encourage everyone to obey them. 3 Some people may contradict our teaching, but these are the wholesome teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. These teachings promote a godly life. 4 Anyone who teaches something different is arrogant and lacks understanding. Such a person has an unhealthy desire to quibble over the meaning of words. This stirs up arguments ending in jealousy, division, slander, and evil suspicions. 5 These people always cause trouble. Their minds are corrupt, and they have turned their backs on the truth. To them, *a show of godliness* is just *a way to become wealthy*.

6 Yet *true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth*. 7 After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us when we leave it. 8 *So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content*.

9 But *people who long to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction*. 10 For *the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil*. And some people, *craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows*."
{1 Timothy 6:2-10 NLT}

"For we brought nothing into this world, and *it is certain* we can carry nothing out"
{1 Timothy 6:7 NKJV}
Re: The Christian Chatbox ( sticky) by ochibuogwu5: 5:02am On Jul 17, 2019
"Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to *trust in uncertain riches but in the living God*, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. 18 Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, 19 storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

Guard the Faith:
20 O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge— 21 by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith.

Grace be with you. Amen."
{1 Timothy 6:17-21 NKJV}

"They think religion{becoming a believer/Christian/Preacher} is a way to make a fast buck{financial cash benefits by hook or by crook}."
{1 Timothy 6:5 MSG}

But you, Timothy{Christian/Believer}, man of God: Run for your life from all this. Pursue a righteous life—a life of wonder, faith, love, steadiness, courtesy. Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life you were called to, the life you so fervently embraced in the presence of so many witnesses.
{1 Timothy 6:11-12 MSG}

"I’m charging you before the life-giving God and before Christ, who took his stand before Pontius Pilate and didn’t give an inch: Keep this command to the letter, and don’t slack off. Our Master, Jesus Christ, is on his way. He’ll show up right on time, his arrival guaranteed by the Blessed and Undisputed Ruler, High King, High God. He’s the only one death can’t touch, his light so bright no one can get close. He’s never been seen by human eyes—human eyes can’t take him in! Honor to him, and eternal rule! Oh, yes."

"Tell those rich in this world’s wealth to quit being so full of themselves and so obsessed with money, which is here today and gone tomorrow. Tell them to go after God, who piles on all the riches we could ever manage—to do good, to be rich in helping others, to be extravagantly generous. If they do that, they’ll build a treasury that will last, gaining life that is truly life."
{1 Timothy 6:17-19 MSG}

"And oh, my dear Timothy, guard the treasure you were given! *Guard it with your life*. Avoid the talk-show religion and the practiced confusion of the so-called experts. People caught up in a lot of talk can miss the whole point of faith.

Overwhelming grace keep you! AMEN."

"Whoever is a slave must make the best of it, giving respect to his master so that outsiders don’t blame God and our teaching for his behavior. Slaves with Christian masters all the more so—their masters are really their beloved brothers!"

The Lust for Money
2-5 These are the things I want you to teach and preach. If you have leaders there who teach otherwise, who refuse the solid words of our Master Jesus and this godly instruction, tag them for what they are: ignorant windbags who infect the air with germs of envy, controversy, bad-mouthing, suspicious rumors. Eventually there’s an epidemic of backstabbing, and truth is but a distant memory. They think religion is a way to make a fast buck.

6-8 A devout life does bring wealth, but it’s the rich simplicity of being yourself before God. Since we entered the world penniless and will leave it penniless, if we have bread on the table and shoes on our feet, that’s enough.

9-10 But if it’s only money these leaders are after, they’ll self-destruct in no time. Lust for money brings trouble and nothing but trouble. Going down that path, some lose their footing in the faith completely and live to regret it bitterly ever after.

Running Hard
11-12 But you, Timothy, man of God: Run for your life from all this. Pursue a righteous life—a life of wonder, faith, love, steadiness, courtesy. Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life you were called to, the life you so fervently embraced in the presence of so many witnesses.

13-16 I’m charging you before the life-giving God and before Christ, who took his stand before Pontius Pilate and didn’t give an inch: Keep this command to the letter, and don’t slack off. Our Master, Jesus Christ, is on his way. He’ll show up right on time, his arrival guaranteed by the Blessed and Undisputed Ruler, High King, High God. He’s the only one death can’t touch, his light so bright no one can get close. He’s never been seen by human eyes—human eyes can’t take him in! Honor to him, and eternal rule! Oh, yes.

17-19 Tell those rich in this world’s wealth to quit being so full of themselves and so obsessed with money, which is here today and gone tomorrow. Tell them to go after God, who piles on all the riches we could ever manage—to do good, to be rich in helping others, to be extravagantly generous. If they do that, they’ll build a treasury that will last, gaining life that is truly life.

20-21 And oh, my dear Timothy, guard the treasure you were given! Guard it with your life. Avoid the talk-show religion and the practiced confusion of the so-called experts. People caught up in a lot of talk can miss the whole point of faith.

Overwhelming grace keep you!"

Honor Widows:
1 Do not sharply reprimand an older man, but appeal to him as [you would to] a father, to younger men as brothers, 2 to older women as mothers, to younger women as sisters, in all purity [being careful to maintain appropriate relationships].

3 Honor and help those widows who are truly widowed [alone, and without support]. 4 But if a widow has children or grandchildren [who are adults], see to it that these first learn to show great respect to their own family [as their religious duty and natural obligation], and to compensate their parents or grandparents [for their upbringing]; for this is acceptable and pleasing in the sight of God. 5 Now a woman who is really a widow and has been left [entirely] alone [without adequate income] trusts in God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day. 6 Whereas she who lives for pleasure and self-indulgence is spiritually dead even while she still lives. 7 Keep instructing [the people to do] these things as well, so that they may be blameless and beyond reproach. 8 If anyone fails to provide for his own, and especially for those of his own family, he has denied the faith [by disregarding its precepts] and is worse than an unbeliever [who fulfills his obligation in these matters].

9 A widow is to be put on the list [to receive regular assistance] only if she is over sixty years of age, [having been] the wife of one man, 10 and has a reputation for good deeds; [she is eligible] if she has brought up children, if she has shown hospitality to strangers, if she has washed the feet of the saints (God’s people), if she has assisted the distressed, and has devoted herself to doing good in every way. 11 But refuse [to enroll the] younger widows, for when they feel their natural desires in disregard of Christ, they wish to marry again, 12 and so they incur condemnation for having set aside their previous pledge. 13 Now at the same time, they also learn to be idle as they go from house to house; and not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies [meddlers in things that do not concern them], talking about things they should not mention. 14 So I want younger widows to get married, have children, manage their households, and not give opponents of the faith any occasion for slander. 15 Some [widows] have already turned away [from the faith] to follow Satan. 16 If any believing woman has [dependent] widows [in her household], she must assist them [according to her ability]; and the church must not be burdened [with them], so that it may assist those who are truly widows [those who are all alone and are dependent].

Concerning Elders:
17 The elders who perform their leadership duties well are to be considered worthy of double honor (financial support), especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching [the word of God concerning eternal salvation through Christ]. 18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox while it is treading out the grain [to keep it from eating],” and, “The worker is worthy of his wages [he deserves fair compensation].” 19 Do not accept an accusation against an elder unless it is based on [the testimony of at least] two or three witnesses. 20 As for those [elders] who continue in sin, reprimand them in the presence of all [the congregation], so that the rest will be warned. 21 I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels that you guard and keep these rules without bias, doing nothing out of favoritism. 22 Do not hurry to lay hands on anyone [ordaining and approving someone for ministry or an office in the church, or in reinstating expelled offenders], and thereby share in the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.

23 No longer continue drinking [only] water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.

24 The sins of some people are conspicuous, leading the way for them into judgment [so that they are clearly not qualified for ministry]; but the sins of others appear later [for they are hidden and follow behind them]. 25 Likewise, good deeds are quite evident, and those which are otherwise cannot be hidden [indefinitely]."

IS YOUR ALL{aspects of your life; secret/public-relationships, family-responsibilities, business-targets, political-ambitions, fashion-trends, financial-targets/competitions, societal-titles/positions, religious-titles, personal-ambitions e.t.c.} on the altar {of Christ Jesus}?
or
are you giving 99%?

Jesus Christ told the righteous man who has kept all the commandments *of the law* who wanted to justify himself; *one thing is remaining...* (Luke 18:22)

if one{1}-thing is still lacking then
Jesus Christ is *not yet given the ownership of our lives completely*
this is *human will* hindering *Divine will* from manifesting God's purpose in our individual lives
yet *most of us under this attitude of raising our human will above God's-will* are busy jumping from place to place looking for *deliverance, family-prayer-liberation, ancestral-curse-liberation e.t.c.*

What you/I are doing now{inside our marital-relationships, business, family-responsibilities, religious-positions, office-jurisdictions, source-of-livelihood, friendships, political-engagements, jobs, shops, private-rooms, social-media-posts/uploads/downloads/comments/chats, e.t.c.} is it according to God's will or our individual-will which we have *spiritualized* with one(1) or two(2) bible quotations that seems to *approve such disobedience to God's will* remember even Satan quoted bible for Jesus Christ while he was tempting him?

though Jesus Christ was God and Man with *perfect-will* manifesting God's glory yet at *every point in his life he had to submit this *his perfect will to the will of His Father* thus "Father, take this cup away, however not my will but YOUR WILL BE DONE" {Matt.26:39} for three{3} consecutive times...

It is *only through complete submission* to God's will that we can *manifest God's purpose and glory on this earth fully* lest we spend the rest of our years on this earth in misery, demonic manipulations and become prey to *unbalanced biblical teachers, motivational-speakers and fake-preachers* who will steal money from you, cause division in your families as well as make you build up *anxieties, worries, emotional-traumas, mundane-fears, unrealistic-targets* in your life.

Father, we seek *a sincere heart devoid of sentiments prompted and controlled by Your Holy Spirit Grace* to submit to *Your Divine-Will* concerning every aspect of our lives *no matter how difficult/painful/uncomfortable/unrealistic/archaic e.t.c* they may appear according to *your divine instructions at each point/phase of our lives* in Jesus Name. Amen.

Receive Grace to study, understand, believe and willingly obey the word of God according to Jesus Christ teachings with effortless ease today 20th July, 2019 and everyday of our lives on earth under the Holy Spirit influence in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.

The Preaching of John the Baptist
1 In those days [a]John the Baptist appeared, preaching in the Wilderness of Judea [along the western side of the Dead Sea] and saying, 2 “[b]Repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking, regret past sins, live your life in a way that proves repentance; seek God’s purpose for your life], for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” 3 This is the one who was mentioned by the prophet Isaiah when he said,

“The voice of one shouting in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the road for the Lord,
[c]Make His highways straight (level, direct)!’”

4 Now this same John had clothing made of camel’s hair and a [wide] leather [d]band around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey. 5 At that time Jerusalem was going out to him, and all Judea and all the district around the Jordan; 6 and they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, as they confessed their sins.

7 But when he saw many of the [e]Pharisees and [f]Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the [divine] wrath and judgment to come? 8 So produce fruit that is consistent with repentance [demonstrating new behavior that proves a change of heart, and a conscious decision to turn away from sin]; 9 and do not presume to say to yourselves [as a defense], ‘We have Abraham for our father [so our inheritance assures us of salvation]’; for I say to you that from these stones God is able to raise up children (descendants) for Abraham. 10 And already the axe [of God’s judgment] is [g]swinging toward the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

11 “As for me, I baptize you [h]with water because of [your] repentance [that is, because you are willing to change your inner self—your old way of thinking, regret your sin and live a changed life], but He (the Messiah) who is coming after me is mightier [more powerful, more noble] than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to remove [even as His slave]; He will baptize you [who truly repent] with the Holy Spirit and [you who remain unrepentant] with [i]fire (judgment). 12 His [j]winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear out His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat (believers) into His barn (kingdom), but He will burn up the chaff (the unrepentant) with unquenchable fire.”

The Baptism of Jesus
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan [River], to be baptized by him. 14 But John tried to prevent Him [vigorously protesting], saying, “It is I who need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?” 15 But Jesus replied to him, “Permit it just now; for this is the fitting way for us [k]to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John permitted [it and baptized] Him. 16 After Jesus was baptized, He came up immediately out of the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he (John) saw the [l]Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him (Jesus), 17 and behold, a [m]voice from heaven said, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased and delighted!”
{Matthew 3:1-17 amp}
Re: The Christian Chatbox ( sticky) by ochibuogwu5: 1:53pm On Jul 20, 2019
And now I commend you to God [placing you in His protective, loving care] and [I commend you] to the word of His grace [the counsel and promises of His unmerited favor]. His grace is able to build you up and to give you the [rightful] inheritance among all those who are sanctified [that is, among those who are set apart for God’s purpose—all believers] in Christ Jesus. Amen.

YES LORD JESUS CHRIST;
I KNOW YOU LOVE ME BETTER;
WHATSOEVER MAY BE; I WILL FOLLOW YOU. AMEN. {Agreeing with the *fact/truth* that God's wisdom and manifestations in my life is PERFECT!!!}

if we want to become *complete vessels of honor* in the hands of Jesus Christ then we must seek grace to constantly submit our personal convenient desires 100% (not 99%) to be *overtaken/swallowed-up* by GOD'S WILL at each point/phase of our lives.

I am the Lord Your God(the owner/controller of YOUR LIFE having accepted SALVATION THROUGH THE ETERNAL BLOOD OF MY NEW COVENANT IN CHRIST JESUS), I am a jealous God{I do not take 1% distraction/rivalry}

"Father... LET YOUR WILL BE DONE not my will" {Matthew 26:39} at every tick of time I spend on this earth and give me the grace to recognize, submit and collaborate 100% with YOUR DIVINE WILL with ease at each point in time in Jesus Name. Amen.

Being a *Believer/Christian* is not about having a bible verse tattoed on any part of our body.
Being a Christian is not just about memorizing and singing gospel songs/hymns
Christianity is not defined by one line statement on our *instagram bio* or any other social media platform
Being a Christian entails *BELIEVING in JESUS CHRIST as our personal Lord and Savior* not minding the pains or pleasures you are facing at any point in time
AND
*actively dying to ourselves 100%{not just 99% that is giving up our *convenient personal-will to be DOMINATED by GOD'S-WILL* not minding whose ox is gored} and allowing the HOLY SPIRIT to manifest the person/life of Christ Jesus* through us every tick of time we spend on this earth in whatever *field/aspect of living we find ourselves* by collaborating with HIS GRACE.
GREAT GRACE BRETHREN!!!

GOD made ordinary dry stick {Aaron' walking stick} to produce flower, bear fruit and the fruit got ripe under 24-hours. The same God is who we are still serving {"I the Lord God have not changed and you are still my people whom I love" Malachi 3:6}
"Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is there anything too difficult for Me?" {Jeremiah 32:27}.
WHY ARE YOU GIVING UP ON JESUS CHRIST?
Re: The Christian Chatbox ( sticky) by ochibuogwu5: 6:22am On Jul 23, 2019
"Whenever anyone obeys what Christ Jesus has said,

God’s love comes to perfection in him."

{1 John 2:5}



Jesus Christ said that it is not His Will as GOD that any human being should be lost in eternal hell/fire rather have eternal life by *believing in Him(Jesus Christ) as personal Lord, Savior, Redeemer and God* thus "it is not the will of my Father that *anyone of these should be lost*" {Matthew 18:14}



which defines God's love for every human being whether living inside sin now or humanly righteous thus "it was *while we were still sinners* that Jesus Christ died to *show/prove his love for us(human beings)*" {Romans 5:8}

and

"God *so much love the world* that He gave His only Son(to be crucified on Calvary for the remission of human sin and the sin of all creation) that whosoever *believes in Him(Jesus Christ at any point in time on this earth or in any geographical location/social status)* will *not perish* but will have *eternal life*" {John 3:16}



If anybody *obeys this teaching of Jesus Christ* by *believing in Him* the Love of God *comes to perfection* inside him/her.



Obedience to GOD{Jesus Christ} teachings is only possible through GRACE thus "Grace has appeared to *all men* making us to *accept salvation*..." {Titus 2:11-12}



The same grace that moved our hearts to accept salvation inside Jesus Christ teaches us how to resist sin in this world where sin seems to be celebrated, the same grace teaches us how to resist worldly passions, the same grace teaches us how to live holy lives, righteous lifestyle, self-controlled lifestyle, life of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faith, trust e.t.c in this world not when we die and enter the world of the dead.



Let us seek mercy in order to *receive grace to help us in this time of need* from the throne of grace {Hebrews 4:16}



Having received a kingdom{Jesus Christ} which cannot be shaken, let us *have grace with which alone we can use to serve God acceptably with Holiness and Godly fear on this earth* for our God is a consuming fire{He does not condole/accept any attribute of sin/disobedience or reduce his 100% standard of holiness *for any generation*)" {Hebrews 12:28-29KJV}



Father, activate your mercy, grace and love inside us today and every day we spend on this earth to *willingly receive/believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ your only beloved son* Amen.



Great Grace Brethren!!!

There is a supernatural power that is at work in every Christian or believer in Christ Jesus. This supernatural power is the power for living a Christian life. This is the result of the boldness you see in the life of any Christian who knows about this power. Proverbs 28:1, “…the righteous is as bold as a lion.” The dynamic power of the Spirit of God at work in the Christian is that ability to cause changes and the power for living a righteous life. Praise God!

You’re familiar with the old written law, “love friend,” and its unwritten companion, “hate your enemy”. I’m challenging that. I’m telling you to love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst…Matthew 5:43-44(Message Translation Version).

The society tells you to love your friends and hate your enemies. On the contrary, the Lord Jesus is teaching you in the portion of the scripture you’ve just read to love both your friends and enemies.

One of the most exciting privileges of any Christian is the right to reign over all the situations life may bring on his way. A religious mind will have problem with this very truth because he doesn’t know Christ Jesus. This truth can only be accepted by people who listen to him and it is not only about listening but also because of their personal experiences with the power of the word of God. 1 John 4:6, “we are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us.” But if you can take in this truth your life will never be the same.

Anytime people are in pains, anytime there are many bills to pay, anytime somebody loses someone special, anytime somebody loses his job or business, it seems as if God does not care. That time, you will hear questions like, if God cares why am I suffering like this or why am I facing this kind of treble situation? The fact is that problems and challenges of life make us think that God does not care about us.
