Religion / Understanding The Concept Of The Blessing by sonofmanj3(m): 9:22am On Oct 07, 2017
One of the most misunderstood concepts in our Christian faith, is the issue of the blessing, when ever the word blessing is mentioned what runs through the mind of the average believer is physical material things. We have to understand that the blessings are not things, nor riches nor material possessions. We don't judge a man by the possessions he has or the riches available to him. A man can be rich and yet cursed a man can be rich and lost a man can be rich and still oppressed by spiritual demonic forces. Look at this very popular scripture and understand the concept of the blessings.

Proverbs 10
[22]It is the blessing of the Lord that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it.

Take note it's the blessing that makes a man rich not the other way around. It's not the riches that makes a man blessed.

Now what is the blessing?

The blessing is an empowerment from God in the life of His sons to succeed all round in life.
The blessing is an all round empowerment to succeed in all sphere of life that you found your self as a believer. The blessing means success in your health, your family, your marriage, your business and your job, your finance, success in your Christian life, success in your mind and eventually all that you do.

Now that we have seen that the blessings are not things but an empowerment, how does the blessing work. Let's trace our root to Genesis when the lord created mankind.

Genesis 1:27-28
[27]God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
[28]God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

When man was created the first thing that God did was to bless them. Remember all that man needed was already created in the garden but for man to enjoy the things he needed to carry the blessing. How did God do it? The scripture says God blessed them SAYING. Now this is where we all got it wrong thinking until we get material possessions we are not blessed. The blessings are spoken words with divine backing which orders the path of your life. For God to bless mankind He spoke He said, until words of blessing are spoken over you by the lord you will struggle. Blessings are words so also are curses. But we as believer we have the word of the blessing spoken over us already. So a man is blessed or cursed by spoken words. When an anointed minister stands over you and declare over your life he is enforcing divine empowerment to succed on you. So never take the words of your minister lightly.

2 Chronicles 20
[20]They rose early in the morning and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa; and when they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, O Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, put your trust in the Lord your God and you will be established. Put your trust in His prophets and succeed."

Have you ever stop to wonder what Jacob got from Isaac his father when he was blessed? Did his father willed all his possessions to him? No, but he left with the spoken word of the blessings and he succeeded. We will see something about this in our next writing which is titled the word of his blessings.
Now let's carry the consciousness of a blessed man anywhere we find ourselves. Because we now know that the word of God has spoken blessings over us. We succeed as much as the blessing we carry and we are aware off. Live your life on a daily basis knowing you are a blessing and that you are blessed. Never allow the misfortune of life make you walk in life like a cursed man. Things may not be what you want now but understand that it will get better because you carry the blessing. After Jacob was blessed by Isaac he suffered many set backs in the land where he was but was never discouraged and once the blessings started manifesting he became an unstoppable force. It may tarry but it will surely speak. Be more conscious of the blessings you carry as a believer never allow the trials of life make you feel you are cursed. Any thing you do have the mindset that it will succeed because you have been empowered for it. In as much as the blessings are not things or material possessions we should also understand that the blessing has the ability to produce the material possessions and things that life needs. The blessing is the producers of riches and material possessions it also supply the good health to enjoy these things abundantly. Let's stop looking for the product but go for the source of the product. God is our source of all round blessings. Remember to carry the blessing you must be in christ, for christ is the total package of all of God's blessings.

Religion / Overcoming UNFORGIVENESS by sonofmanj3(m): 6:37am On Jul 04, 2017
OVERCOMING UNFORGIVENESS
Today am going to be dealing with the issues of unforgiveness in the life of believers how it has rob them of joy, peace and reck havoc amongst friends and families .
The act of holding a grudge against an individual who has hurt you intentionally or unintentionally with the mindset I will give a pay back. is what I call unforgiveness . This is like taking a poison and wishing another person dies , it's as bad as that . It's a poison that eats into the core of our hearts and destroy us from within making our lives miserable. You may have been hurt, betrayed by a friend or probably gotten your heart broken and the only consolation you have is to hold unto that hurt.
when that is the case you are now becoming a problem to your self because your hate soon turn to bitterness and at this point you can do anything . Unforgiveness is the a spirit that robs us of our relationship with God and man . It opens the door for tormentors to come into our lives . Do you know? that malice, that hatred, that anger that, bitterness and that grudge are the product of an unforgiving spirit . So let them go and breath new air into your life not this contaminated poison of unforgiveness .

Matthew 18:23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants. 18:24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents. 18:25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. 18:26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 18:27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. 18:28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. 18:29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 18:30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt. 18:31 So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done. 18:32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: 18:33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? 18:34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. 18:35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.


This is a story of true forgiveness from the part of the master and an unforgiveness from the servant . We should as Christians look at our life and know that Christ died for us at our weakest state while we were yet sinners Christ died for us let's learn to forgive people who have done us wrong . When we are able to do that we free our selves from the hold in our heart and we can now live freely and happily . It's hard to let go but it's more dangerous to hold on. When you hold onto a hurt in the past the person who offended may not remember may have moved on but you are still at that point where the offense was committed . Dearly beloved you cannot hold unto the past and expect a future . Let it go and let God in. The story in the above scripture shows a picture of the servant with an unforgiveness,who was given to the tormentors that is exactly what happens when we refuse to forgive we give room to the tormentor to mess up our lives .

Ephesians 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you .

When we choose to forgive we are helping ourselves get healed of any wound that may have been there . So forgiveness helps you more than the person you are holding a grudge for . The best way to forgive is by the help of THE HOLY SPIRIT because by yourself it's too hard to do . Ask him to help you forgive and when you forgive cancel the debt own you. This means forgive and forget. all these are possible only by the help of the spirit .
MAKE A DECISION to let Go decide within you that you will let go. Consciously make up your mind that you will forgive that person you hold in your heart. and confess boldly that you are free . Keep smiling keep believing I know you will over come .

Religion / No CONDEMNATION by sonofmanj3(m): 8:22am On Jul 02, 2017
Everyday Christians are faced with so much guilt and suffering because of their short comings but know this that God is not mad at you
As we live and experience so perience so many things in life our thoughts and lifestyle are shaped by theses experience. But I would want to encourage believer to let their life be govern by the word of God because the experience of the word produces the best life for a believer. Because of wrong experiences and wrong messages lots and lots of Christians are living in condemnation .

Condemnation is in two forms.
one is you disapproving yourself because of what you have done or not done.
while the second. is the feelings of getting a sentence of punishment because of an act. We are going to be dealing with these two forms.

John 3:17
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

This scripture show us the intention of God towards us. God is not out to judge us or to Condemn us. His mission is for our salvation from all that the devil can offer. So one of Christ's mission is to free us from self condemnation and expected condemnation.

Romans 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.

Take a close look at that scripture it's makes it categorically clear that the those who are in Christ are not in any form of judgement why? Because for you to be free from condemnation you must have a place in Christ Jesus. This is the understanding of the substitution work that Jesus has done for us. In His death burial and Resurrection Christ took our place of sin,our place of death, our place of condemnation in all things. The work of the cross is so clear it's for judgement to be taken away in the body of Christ. So Christ paid in full for us to be free from all judgement which we were supposed to face but Christ faced it for us all. Declaring us not guilty declaring us justify.

NOW that we know we are not condemned because Christ took or our condemnation and paid the price for our judgement we are to live a life that is free from all negatively imagined judgement. When we make mistakes God does not leave us or does he allow us to be punished. Sometimes Christians feel that once you make a mistake God is waiting to punish you No! Your punishment has been lifted. God cannot punish an offence twice, God punished Christ on our behalf.

John 8:10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

This above story shows a woman who has committed a wrong and was punishable by law so they brought her to Jesus wanting a confirmation of condemnation but you will recall that His mission was not to condemn but to save. Such kind of love has never been seen before in the history of mankind. She was wrong she was set for judgement but just as they waited Jesus showed us that no man can Condemn us so he also will not Condemn us. If our make has made us free let us live freely.


I know you will say what if I keep doing wrong twon't I be condemned I tell you this. your wrong cannot put God away from you. It's you who run because you feel you have done too much wrong to be accepted by God again. But I tell you as much as your sins may be there is enough grace to help you. This grace builds God's love within you and help you live right because all what it takes is the grace of God. His love is greater than our sins


Romans 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

Do you know in the scripture Jesus is the one known as the king of kings lord of Lords Jesus is referred to as the beginning and the end the alpha and omega this are the character of God in Hebrew God referred to Jesus as God this is God calling God. In John he is referred to as the creator of all things in Isaiah he is known as the everlasting father. This is God revealed in the name of Jesus until you know Jesus as God then you don't know God yet.

Religion / Re: Who Is Jesus? by sonofmanj3(m): 8:01am On Jun 30, 2017
WHO IS JESUS
This is one of the biggest question the world needs answer for. From different religions of the world Jesus mean different things to them. To Christians both old and young Jesus is seen differently. But until you really know who Jesus is you can never know the truth about God.
Some know him as the son of God, the saviour, the christ, A prophet, they are all correct but He is more.
To know Jesus let's see the prophets declaration about who Jesus is.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, THE MIGHTY GOD , THE EVERLASTING FATHER, The Prince of Peace.
From this we see Jesus as the mighty God and the Everlasting father wow. What do I mean? It clearly says Jesus is God. Until you come to know that there is only one God and one of His many biblical name is JESUS then you have not known God yet. How did it happen? Take a look at this next scripture.

John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

What happened was for God to save he has to come in the flesh become took the nature of man. He is the same with the father and you can't separate what is one. In Jesus God became man to save man. In Jesus you have have the physical appearance of God. Apart from this, God is spirit but in Jesus we have a face we can behold . from the above scripture we see him as the creator of all things. These are the works of God. It takes only Him to create. What happened was God can in the flesh became the son of man and salvation through his death. The only way for God to die for man's sins was to first become a man.

Philippians 2:6
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
2:7But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

Jesus is God manifest in human.he is the carrier of all that makes God. He is the father the son and the spirit all in one. Dwelling and moving in him.

1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Colossians 1:19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Remember when Philip one of His apostles asked him show us the father we want to know the father. What was Jesus response? He said when you see me you have seen the father. So there is no father any where if it's not Jesus. Wow this is amazing

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

He said I have been with you this long and you have not known me? Notice He said me. So to know the father you must know the son because it's in the son that you see the father.
Any one who deny these things I have said about Jesus is any anti christ, so don't be one. Who is any anti christ?

2 john 1:7
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
1 John 4:3
and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already. and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already.

So don't become one of such. Jesus is and will always be the God of the Bible this we confess and affirm. I pray that your eyes be open and that christ become real to you

Religion / The God Of All Comfort by sonofmanj3(m): 7:32am On Jun 30, 2017
Corinthians 1:3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
1:4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. 1:5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

In a time when so much has been seen and experienced so many believers have come to face many battles but our consolation is in the promises of Christ. And in this promises we stand strong. Our God is the God of all comforts. He is on our side to give us strength in the times of trials. As we win with the help of the spirit we become experienced in these troubles to comfort and console others with the comfort wherewith we were comforted.
Jesus promised not to leave us comfortless as orphans having no fatherly covering, living like the bereaved. That is why the spirit was given.


John 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

This is an assurance of his ever present help in times of needs. Are you feeling alone, abandoned, neglected or forgotten remember this our consolation is in Christ. Don't look for comfort in a human they will not always be there for you but you can rest on the finished work of Christ.the spirit within you to draw strength in the times of pains.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

He is our teacher, he teaches us all things how to be comforted in the world where tribulation and trial abound. You have to understand that in this life you will experience so much trouble and trials but you are not left on your own. You have a helper,a consoler and a lifter in the times when you are down.

Psalms 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

We are not promised a life without battles if any body tells you once you get born again all your troubles are over. It's not true its just a seductive spirit which is not of Christ. But in our tribulation we are not alone. We have the God of all comfort now and forever. So stay calm stay focus depend on him absolutely and your pains will be gone just as he has promised. He is always there for you. Where no body, no man, no friend, can go with you your conforter is always and forever there to hold you up and raise you above the sinking waters of life. Are you grieving? have you lost a loved one? Does life look frustrating to you? Now is the time to call for the promises of the father into your life and family. DGod bless you. THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT

Religion / Patience by sonofmanj3(m): 4:35pm On Jun 28, 2017
We are in a time where everything in the world is running at a fast pace, everyone is in a hurry to get things done. Hurriedly getting married, in a hurry for children, in a hurry to make money, to start business. virtually all human race are so desperate to get things done that we forget about patience.

In the church today people actually change thier names thinking that by bearing the name patience nothing good has happened to them. That is so wrong.

We can ultimately go through challenges, delays and not getting upset, the Holy Spirit works within us and teaches us to stay calm and thankful in the face of difficulties.

Patience is not just waiting but our conduct during waiting, how we act and react while waiting is the definition of Christian patience.

Luke 8:15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

The word of God produces in all area of our lives when patience is at work, the Word will bring forth fruit but it takes patience, and as believers all we have is the word and for the word to produce effectively it has to do with how much you can wait for the word to have its way.

Patience is steadfastness, constancy, and endurance. it takes these things to live happily. It takes patience not to be swerved from purpose.

Romans 5:4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

It takes patience to build a godly experience in life which in turn produces hope and hope makes not ashamed,
what are you hoping for in life? That dream and aspirations what will deliver it to you is patience while going through the rough times.

1 Thessalonians 1:3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;

believers we know so much about righteousness, faith, godliness and so on but only little about patience

1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

So many believers are moving like the world and acting like the world but not knowing that our life is not of this world,

James 1:3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

We have trials but these ultimately builds patience in us and makes us trust the lord even in good times. So many Christians don't want to go through trials but want glory.
Our birth into the Christian faith is a birth into the life of God, and the devil will keep fighting to frustrate our walk with God but continue in your love and let patience have its way.

James 1:4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

Patience makes a perfect life and makes a believer whole not thinking, not troubled by the issues of life, lacking nothing, wanting nothing always full is a function of a life of patience.
I admonish you today to stay focus, wait and be patient in all your life work. Never be in a hurry to get things done. Never be discouraged because of the pains of this world. Don't rush because he who is hasty to be rich shall not be innocent. Keep winning. But remember that Good things takes time nothing good just happens

There is only one Godwin Almighty the creator of Heaven and Earth, and there is only one mediator and his Name is Jesus.
From scripture who was referred to as the creator in John 1? in Isaiah who was referred to as the almighty God in Heb how was Jesus discribed until you see the father in jesus you don't know him yet
Religion / Who Is Jesus by sonofmanj3(m): 8:37am On Jun 24, 2017
WHO IS JESUS
This is one of the biggest question the world needs answer for. From different religions of the world Jesus mean different things to them. To Christians both old and young Jesus is seen differently. But until you really know who Jesus is you can never know the truth about God.
Some know him as the son of God, the saviour, the christ, A prophet, they are all correct but He is more.
To know Jesus let's see the prophets declaration about who Jesus is.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, THE MIGHTY GOD , THE EVERLASTING FATHER, The Prince of Peace.
From this we see Jesus as the mighty God and the Everlasting father wow. What do I mean? It clearly says Jesus is God. Until you come to know that there is only one God and one of His many biblical name is JESUS then you have not known God yet. How did it happen? Take a look at this next scripture.


John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

What happened was for God to save he has to come in the flesh become took the nature of man. He is the same with the father and you can't separate what is one. In Jesus God became man to save man. In Jesus you have have the physical appearance of God. Apart from this, God is spirit but in Jesus we have a face we can behold . from the above scripture we see him as the creator of all things. These are the works of God. It takes only Him to create. What happened was God can in the flesh became the son of man and salvation through his death. The only way for God to die for man's sins was to first become a man.

Philippians 2:6
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
2:7But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

Jesus is God manifest in human.he is the carrier of all that makes God. He is the father the son and the spirit all in one. Dwelling and moving in him.

1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Colossians 1:19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Remember when Philip one of His apostles asked him show us the father we want to know the father. What was Jesus response? He said when you see me you have seen the father. So there is no father any where if it's not Jesus. Wow this is amazing

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

He said I have been with you this long and you have not known me? Notice He said me. So to know the father you must know the son because it's in the son that you see the father.
Any one who deny these things I have said about Jesus is any anti christ, so don't be one. Who is any anti christ?

2 john 1:7
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
1 John 4:3
and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already. and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already.

So don't become one of such. Jesus is and will always be the God of the Bible this we confess and affirm. I pray that your eyes be open and that christ become real to you

Religion / To See God See Jesus by sonofmanj3(m): 8:04am On Jun 23, 2017
Every day people are searching for God in different places and religion because there is a void in man that only God can fill. That search has taken people to the ends of the earth, to science and all the religion of the world has no answer. BUT I TELL YOU THIS UNTIL YOU COME TO KNOW THE SON YOU CAN NEVER KNOW GOD. JESUS IS THE ANSWER. JESUS IS THE FATHER.WHEN YOU KNOW JESUS YOU HAVE THE FATHER
John 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

Religion / Knowing The Father by sonofmanj3(m): 10:49pm On Jun 21, 2017
Man is born with a void. This void is what has lead man in search for God, both knowinlgy and unknowingly. Man has created for themselves idols and religions hoping that peradventure this void can be filled,inventions in Science and technology still man is no where near fulfillment.

Ecclesiastes 7:29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.

This is one thing religion cannot give, nor will science cover it. Many have search to an extent that they decided that there is no God.

Psalms 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

This void came to be from the fall of man in Eden's garden. So as man left the garden he lost his fellowship with the father, if you recall in the story of Adam, The father always come to fellowship in the cool of the evening suddenly that was no more . This void has been the crave of all mankind.
Genesis 3:9
And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
3:10
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

So then what is the way? . From the fall of man God made provision for this void to be filled. God has been seeking man. Then at a point in history God decided to become man to save man and fill that void.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

He came in human flesh to reveal himself and make a home with man but, the Jews never knew the God they worship in the temple was among them in human. This was the highest hight of God's search for man.

John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

The Jews rejected him not knowing that the answer they sort was with them.
But it opened door not just for the Jews but for all human race to come to the father. Because the heart of the father was for the world. A family of sons and children. The only way to the father is the son because the father is the son manifest in human. So many want to get to the father without the son jesus. Some separate the son from the father. But I tell you this truth the only way to truly know God is to know who Jesus is in totality .

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

This is one of the most captivating verse in the Bible. Our hunger can only be filled when we allow Jesus rule and reign in our lives on a daily basis. To have our heart filled and our lives transformed we need to come to the father through the son. We enjoy fellowship and and oneness with the father and His spirit fills our lives. I admonish us to know who Jesus is. for us to understand God we must know him as Jesus. The word, the healer, the savior, the merciful, compassionate one. The love and lover of man. The beginning and the end.

Religion / Some Past Tense About A Believer (accomplished Finished) by sonofmanj3(m): 7:51am On Jun 20, 2017
These are some of the things that we have and enjoy in Christ. They are done, finished, and accomplished for us. At new birth all these happened to us.
They are past tense, finished, done and accomplished
Saved
A the point of new birth we enter into the finished work of Christ. Where Christ has saved from judgment and punishment where we have been rescued from evil and harm it's all in the finished work
Ephesians 2:8 KJV
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
2 Timothy 1:9 KJV
Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
Delivered
This is what deliverance really means when we get saved we are totally delivered, not partially. We are taken to a new Kingdom it's also in the past, done in Christ.
Colossians 1:13 KJV
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
Forgiven
Before we came to Christ our sins are already forgiven. We just have to receive what has been done already and we enjoy this.
Ephesians 4:32 KJV
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
1 John 2:12 KJV
I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
Sanctified
This is another point believers think they attain by works but it's what Christ has done in the past to declare us to himself as separated and holy.
Hebrews 2:11 KJV
For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
1 Corinthians 6:11 KJV
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Justified
We came in guilty but at the point of Christ meeting us we are declared not guilty.
Romans 5:1 KJV
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
Blessed
We are empowered to succeed it's born in us not what we struggle to get its done already.
Ephesians 1:3 KJV
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
Redeemed
We are not trying to be redeem we are the redeemed of the Lord.
1 Peter 1:18-19 KJV
Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
Sealed
A sign of ownership of God. He own us we are his. And he keeps us saved.
Ephesians 1:13 KJV
In whom ye also trusted , after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

Religion / The Old And The New by sonofmanj3(m): 11:51pm On Jun 18, 2017
The Bible is a book of covenants the two major covenant are the old and the new covenant. But sadly Christians don't understand the dividing line between this two am going to make a quick review in few words for easy understanding I hope u are blessed. The books of the old covenant are made up of the laws and the prophets. The prophets reference the law as a guide . But the big picture is this all the old covenant was doing was pointing toward the new covenant in the person of Jesus The new covenant.

John 5:46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
Galatians 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
Galatians 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

The old covenant was not given to Christians, it was not given to the world it's specifically for the Jewish people of Isreal.

Exodus 19:3 And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: 19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

But the new covenant is for both the Jews and the gentiles the world in general.
Christ is the end of the old thereby established a better covenant.
The old could make no man righteous before God but the new makes us His righteousness.
The old is abolished the new abides for ever.
The old require animal sacrifice while Jesus is the everlasting payment for sin for the whole world lastly but still so much to say.

Hebrews 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. 10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

You can't mix the two together no it never works and never will work. For you cannot put new wine in an old wine skin or bottle. For the old is the fading glory but we are his ever shining glory for ever never fading . For the law was given by Moses but grace and truth came through Jesus . The old is the law the new is grace. Don't try to resurrect what God has buried. Open your heart to learn and unlearn this is the only way we can really see what God is working within us. All it takes is faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross. We look and behold him and we are transformed in all areas of our lives. Keep winning. Jesus is our all in all

Religion / How To Receive And Manifest The Blessing by sonofmanj3(m): 4:59am On Jun 14, 2017
http://truebelieversnow..com.ng/2017/06/how-to-receive-and-manifest-blessing.html


We as New creations, believe and Know according to the
word of God that all things has been done, all things, more
than we could ever desire are already done and already
given to us...

That car, that House, that husband, or wife, has already
been given you... Whatever... Name it...
And it is by faith that we see and know that those things are
already done for us...

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

You see? the word says we have been blessed (past tense) and
YOU are not left out of the Blessing... It is Bigger than saying
God has answered all your prayers, Because there are many
things you wouldn't have been able to ask for, even if you were
given the opportunity to... It is actually the fulfillment of the
prophecy that says

And it shall come to pass, that before
they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
Isaiah 65:24

I like the way apostle peter puts it

2 Peter 1:3
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things
that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge
of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
All things that pertain to life and Godliness has been given to you.
You never had to ask or beg for it, you never had to ask for
it, all you had to do was to hear the Gospel, and become saved
by it... It was all done for you.
It says HIS DIVINE POWER, (which is the GOSPEL of Christ,
romans 1:16) has given you all things, and if you read
further to verse 4 you will see that it was to make you and I a partaker of the Divine Life.
This is our Faith as believers, we are not expecting God to come and do something, we Know that all things are ALREADY done, Faith says IT IS FINISHED.
Though we pray, and we pray Very well, But not as religious people do, not from a thought that we are frustrated or in want, We know that ALL things exist for us 2cor.4:15 1cor 3:21 And don't forget 1 Peter 1:3-4

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us
again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible, and
undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for
you.

The Blessing is actually an inheritance, something that you got
the legal right for, immediately you were Born again into the
family of God... God willed all things to you, and
authenticated or sealed it by the blood of Jesus, thus you
are Blessed, you are a Joint heir with Christ, you have all
that Christ has, he says the Glory that God gave to Him, he
has given it to you. John 17:22... You are so full of God's
Glory...
But how do I receive and manifest all these things?
Yeah!!! That's where the problem of many believers are, for
it is one thing to have been given something, and it is
another thing to receive it, the fact that someone deposited
some money into your account, doesn't directly mean you will
not be hungry, you got to get to the bank and make
withdrawal, so that you can enjoy them. So also are all these
inheritances and Blessing RESERVED for you in Heaven... Not
in the world. 1pet 1:4 (It is only tribulations that are
reserved in the world... Don't let your own life be limited to
the world)....
So getting to the bank and making withdrawal is what Prayer
is for the believers, not some beggings for God to make the
deposit...
And that these things are reserved in heaven is indeed a sad
news for many people, because they are not in heaven yet.
But some of us are in heaven already, there we live move
and have our being. We are not waiting to get to heaven,
God has risen us with Christ and made us sit with him in
Heavenly places eph.2:6, phil. 3:20 says our dealings as
believers are in the heavenly... We don't live from this world,
we live from heaven, and manifest the fullness of our Divine
life in the world... 'We are in the world' though, but we are
not of the world; which means that our sustainability or
source of living is not in this world... We are divine beings,
and we live by this in mind.
Prayer is therefore useless, if you don't know the things that
are reserved for you, or how will you withdraw the money
you don't know is in your account? You have to find out by
the word of God, and see yourself in what it says,
Prayer is seeing what God says with the eyes of your spirit. It
is looking unto those things that are NOT seen by the senses
2cor.4:18, it is placing your affection on the things in
Heaven, because that's where God would have you to always
live...
Prayer is Receiving into your Spirit all that God has for you,
and seeing yourself manifesting them first in your spirit
before it becomes obvious to the senses... God is a spirit,
and they that worship him MUST worship Him in spirit and
in truth John 4:24 every one that must relate with God, or
Get some things from God must be people whose spirits are
already awakened to Divine realities... You don't Know it,
you don't get it; You got to Know them, believe them, and
put on the constant consciousness of thesame, now this is
very easy; but through the help of the Holy spirit

Religion / Eternal Salvation by sonofmanj3(m): 9:57am On Jun 09, 2017
ETERNAL SALVATION




Hebrews 5:9 And being made perfect, he became the author of ETERNAL SALVATION unto all them that obey him;


John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE, AND SHALL NOT COME INTO CONDEMNATION; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE.


We are saved once for all. Our salvation is not based upon our works or ourselves; instead, it is based upon the Lord and His work. We ourselves and our works can change and are not reliable, but the Lord and His work will not change and are eternally reliable.


We cannot obtain the Lord’s salvation by our works, and we cannot lose the Lord’s salvation by our works. The Lord did not save us because of things that we have done, and He will not take away His salvation because of things that we will do.


Since our salvation is apart from works, our works have absolutely no effect on our salvation. The Lord’s gift of salvation issues from the grace of His unchanging love and is based upon His eternal work of redemption which He accomplished.


Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture?  Abraham believed God, and it was counted  unto him for righteousness. 4 Now to him  that worketh is the reward not reckoned of  grace, but of debt. 5 BUT TO HIM THAT  WORKETH NOT, BUT BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT  JUSTIFIETH THE UNGODLY, his faith is counted  for righteousness. 6 Even as David also  describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness  without works, 7 Saying, Blessed  are they  whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose  sins are covered. 8 Blessed  is the man to  whom the Lord WILL NOT IMPUTE SIN.


When we talk about eternal salvation we are talking about the finished work of Christ on our behalf. This work was not done in half its a perfect work done for the salvation and redemption of man. It's not something we worked to get its something God in Christ worked to get for us. This is not an opportunity for us to live recklessly because we value what we have.



 Ephesians 7-10


Now God has us where he wants us, with all the time in this world and the next to shower grace and kindness upon us in Christ Jesus. Saving is all his idea, and all his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It's God's gift from start to finish! We don't play the major role. If we did, we'd probably go around bragging that we'd done the whole thing! No, we neither make nor save ourselves. God does both the making and saving. He creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten ready for us to do, work we had better be doing
