DO YOU KNOW



Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of our Lord, Jesus Christ.  Peter 1:2

Grace and peace are part of the most crucial necessities in the life of an individual. These are always part of man’s every day need. So, that you had grace and peace yesterday does not mean you can live without it today.  The first step to enjoying a life of grace and peace is by acknowledging the God of grace and peace Himself. However, for you to enjoy grace and peace in multiple fold in all aspects of your life, the knowledge of God, and of Our Lord Jesus Christ is a fundamental requirement. The knowledge of He who says, “Peace I leave with; my peace I give to you”, is your gateway to a life of true and total peace. No government or national leader can give peace to its citizenry or followers. It is only by the peace of God that passes all human understanding that you can live peaceful in these troubled times. Talking about Jesus still, John 1:11, says, “He is full of grace and truth”. Therefore, because He is full of grace and truth, it is of His fullness that we have all received grace, and grace for grace.

Amazingly, many claim to know God, but do not acknowledge His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. There are even some religions that hold this same false belief. They have completely got it all wrong!  You cannot continue to enjoy grace and peace without knowing God, and His son Jesus Christ. The more of Jesus you know, the more grace and peace is multiplied to you. All that you need to enjoy this life in a godly manner has already been provided for in the Lord. Jesus Christ. That’s why Col 2:10 says: We are complete in Him. You know that all things were made by him, and without Him was not anything made that was made. Everything and everyone has their root in him. Therefore, if we neglect Him, at any point, we will become incomplete, no matter how hard we try to cover ourselves up. Talking about God in Rom. 8:32, Apostle Paul wrote: He that spared not his son, but offered him up for us all; how shall he not with him freely give us all things. God has freely given us all things in this life. Please note again for emphasis: All that you need to enjoy this life in a godly manner has already been provided for in the Lord. Jesus Christ.

There are so many reasons why you need to know the Lord Jesus Christ. One of them is because He has called you. I am not talking exclusively about calling into the ministry; I suppose that’s what you may be thinking. No! For all of us, God has called us to something greater, which if we are ignorant of, the enemy will continually exploit us. God has called us to GLORY and VIRTUE. Glory is beyond what any mortal can perfectly describe. Glory is when something or somebody manifests to the fullness of their real worth. It also means shining beauty.  On the other hand, virtue means an attitude of high moral standards; it’s a particular good quality or habit; it’s an attractive or useful quality. When you have this thorough knowledge of God, and of the Lord Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit, you will realize that you have been called to bless humanity. A balance knowledge of God, and your complete obedience to Him, will bring you into maturity; It’s all for your good.

JOURNEY TO GREATER HEIGHTS

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. 28:1 There is an height beyond where you are now. No matter how high you have gone, there is still a greater height. Therefore, let your slogan be, “higher everyday”. This is why Jesus keeps calling men upward. He calls from sin to salvation, from salvation to consecration, consecration to Holy Ghost baptism, from HolyGhost baptism to manifesting to manifesting the fruits of the Spirit, and so on, and so forth. Jesus said in John 12:32, “If I be lifted from above the earth, I will draw all men unto myself”. According to the bible text, the individual willing to embark on the journey to greater height must, hearken diligently, and observe to do all instructions rolled out to him or her. Prayers is one of the conditions which anyone prep...

DIVINE PROJECT

Being confident of this, that He who has begun a good work in you, is able to perfect them till the day of the Lord Jesus. (paraphrased) Phil 1:6 Life does not give you what you desire, but what you demand for. This is why most times, it's not the first time that you apply for a visa,job that you were given; it's not the first time that you wrote that exam that you passed. Life answers to the persistent. If you're persistent in your asking, particularly from the right source, you'll be consistent in receiving. Make this declaration boldly, "I AM A DIVINE PROJECT, I WILL NOT BE ABANDONED. In life, nothing starts as a completed task. Project means  to make something new or improve something. It means to make manifest something. However, not all projects eventually becomes what it was intended to be. A divine project is a life or destiny that God wants to use to make a statement to the world. The world is waiting for the manifestation of the sons and daughters of God...
