I run with passion

Sep 2, 2019 | 0 comments

“I admit that I haven’t yet acquired the absolute fullness that I’m pursuing, but I run with passion into His abundance so that I may reach the purpose that Jesus Christ has called me to fulfill and wants me to discover.” PHILIPPIANS 3:12 (TPT)
I run with Passion.
That I may apprehend.
I actively press on.
I press on to lay hold.
I keep on running.
“I’m not saying that I have this all together that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.” PHILIPPIANS 3:12 (MSG)
Don’t stop pursuing the purpose of God for your life.
Run with Passion for doing it
Behave as God has apprehended you
Actively, consciously press on.
Hold on to the revelation of the purpose of why God created you.
Keep running until you daily attain the very purpose God gave you.
“In Christ, we were chosen to be God’s people, because, from the very beginning, God had decided this in keeping with his plan. And he is the One who makes everything agree with what he decides and wants.” Ephesians 1: 11 (NCV)
Please ask yourself again today
Is what am doing right now is the purpose of God for my life?
Agree with God to bring fulfillment to your life.
God can fulfill what He designed you to be before the foundations of the world.
Know it, Understand it, Say it and Cooperate with God, your maker to make you a Blessing to your generation.
Be sold out to God’s purpose for your excellent and enriching life.
Keep Your Eyes on God’s Goal

Unless The God of my Father – Part 2.

Unless The God of my Father – Part 2.
“Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely thou hadst sent me away now empty. God hath seen mine affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked thee yesternight.” (Genesis 31:42) KJV
Do you fear and respect your father?
Will the fear, honor, and respect you have for your father accrue some positives things for you in the sight of the Almighty God?
The Bible commands you to honor and respect your parents.
Ephesians 6:2: “Honor your father and mother”–which is the first commandment with a promise.”
If you respond that your parents did not deserve this or did not bring you up the Bible way, how are you today bringing up your biological children or the children under your influence?
Do your children know your God, or which God have you introduced to them?
Do your children fear and respect you like Jacob did his father.
God came through for Jacob, and his name was changed to Israel
He is a blessing today because he knew the true God and feared and respected his father.
In 2 Kings 2:12, ” Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel! And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his clothes and tore them apart.”
In the critical historical and spiritual moment of transference of a double portion of power, Elisha drew on his father’s relationship with his master to bring the manifestation to pass.
Do you genuinely have a spiritual father that you can connect with in your moment of need?
Can you boldly talk about God as your father?
Do you respect and fear HIM as a father?

With you as my strength

With you as my strength
“God, all at once you turned on a floodlight for me! You are the revelation-light in my darkness, and in your brightness, I can see the path ahead. With you as my strength, I can crush an enemy horde, advancing through every stronghold that stands in front of me. What a God you are! Your path for me has been perfect! All your promises have proven true.  What a secure shelter for all those who turn to hide themselves in you!  You are the wrap-around God giving grace to me” 
Psalm 18:28 30 (TPT)
God is Your only Source.
God is Your only Strength.
God is Your only True Success.
When you know, understand, constantly, and consistently acknowledge God as your all in all, nothing can stand in your way.
“ I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” John 5:30 (KJV)
Jesus acknowledged God the Father as His source.
“Jesus looked at them and said, “For people this is impossible, but for God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26 (NCV)
David knew this, and that’s why he could face all the challenges before him and succeed.
Recognize God as your source.
You will always and regularly fulfill your purposeful life.

Turning Bitter to Sweet.

Turning Bitter to Sweet.
 “And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah. And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?  Moreover, he cried unto the Lord; and the Lord shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them.” (Exodus 15:23-25) KJV
We all get to experience some bitter situations in our lives.
 However, we must not stop there.
That painful experience will not be forever.
It will soon turn to sweetness.
The moth has to struggle and break out for it to become that beautiful butterfly that we love to see.
Your life journey is designed to let you experience some bitter phases. God in His wisdom allows such to bring the sweetness out so that you can always appreciate Him more.
Like the Israelites experienced in the verses above, it was a test to make them trust Him. In their dependence on Him, they found the solution to change the situation.
 When you too trust God in this bitter trial you are going through He will show you the way to sweetness.
Whatever challenge you are going through God has the solution.
Find time to hear Him and obey Him.
He will turn that bitter situation into sweetness.

Unless The God of my Father – Part 1.

 Unless The God of my Father – Part 1.
 “Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely thou hadst sent me away now empty. God hath seen mine affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked thee yesternight.” Genesis 31:42 (KJV)
These were the words of Jacob to Laban, his Uncle, who had manipulated and tried several times to outsmart him in their relationship. Let me paraphrase this verse like this: “The true, great and faithful God of my grandfather Abraham, and the personal and reverent fear of that same God that my own Father Isaac had, which also has been transferred to me has intervened on my behalf, and that is why you cannot carry out your wicked plans on me .”
 We can see that father Abraham had introduced God Almighty to Isaac, and Isaac had, in turn, introduced Him to his son Jacob who can now testify of God’s miraculous intervention in his life.
 That is not all; Jacob also feared and respected his father, Isaac.
My question to you today is, do you know this true God of Abraham?
 Which God has your father introduced you to?
You may want to say your father did not know the true God; hence, it has been challenging to know this true God.
The Bible says in Hebrews 1:1, 2: ”In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.”
Today again, you are being told that accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is the only way to this great and true God who always intervenes on behalf of HIS own.
We also see that Jacob has a personal reverent fear of his father, which made him closer to the Almighty God that miraculously rescued him from destruction. 

The new life that it imparts.

The new life that it imparts.
“For since we are permanently grafted into him to experience a death like his, then we are permanently grafted into him to experience a resurrection like his and the new life that it imparts.
So let it be the same way with you! Since you are now joined with him, you must continually view yourselves as dead and unresponsive to sin’s appeal while living daily for God’s pleasure in union with Jesus, the Anointed One.
So then, refuse to answer its call to surrender your body as a tool for wickedness. Instead, passionately answer God’s call to keep yielding your body to him as one who has now experienced resurrection life!   You live now for his pleasure, ready to be used for his noble purpose.”
Romans 6:5,11,13(TPT)
Once you have consciously given your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you have received a complete package of the Kingdom life.
This new Kingdom life includes the ability to live a new life.
The Holy Spirit working inside of you gives you the grace and the strength to say NO to continuous sin.
You need to be conscious that through Jesus now living inside you the power to say No to sin currently resides in You.
Anything that Christ won’t do you also you refuse to do.
How do you know what things Christ won’t do?
First and foremost, the inner voice that urged you to surrender your life will gently tell you what is right or wrong.
However, you also now have the responsibility to read the Word of God your self daily to find out.
   “They found that the Jews of Berea were of more noble character and much more open-minded than those of Thessalonica. They were hungry to learn and eagerly received the word. Every day they opened the scrolls of Scripture to search and examine them, to verify that what Paul taught them was true.” Acts 17:11 (TPT)
Yes, it’s a daily relationship with God.
To live your New Life in Christ, you must find time to read the Scriptures.
You also must believe too that His power inside of you has set you free from sin.
“If anyone belongs to Christ, there is a new creation. The old things have gone; everything is made new!” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NCV)
Yes, You can daily live an overcoming victorious life through Christ Jesus.
