The Promise of God for Every Believer in Christ Jesus
Loved one in Christ
Jesus, I believe you are growing in the strength of the Lord. If you allowed
the fears, worries, pride of life, lust of the flesh, and scams of this world
to dominate you, you would find it challenging to enter into the rest of God.
The unbelievers and evil
spirits will most often project the arrows of discontentment, confusion, and
fear of the future to break your faith in God and His Word. Jesus Christ said,
“…Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's
life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” (See
Luke 12:15).
One of the best antidotes to standing against the devil's wind and build your inner reservoir (soul
and spirit) is through spiritual songs, prayer (tongues speaking), and the Word
(Meditate on 1 Peter 2:2). We have the Greatest Seed (Jesus Christ) living in us
(See 1 John 4:4).
Jesus Christ is far above
principalities, powers, and all rulers of darkness (Meditate o Colossians
1:1-20, Ephesians 1:15-23). Never allow life issues to destroy your faith in
the Lord because Jesus Christ is the greatest of all kings and leaders of this
world.
Why should you be afraid
of a person that can only kill the body but cannot destroy the soul? (See Matthew 10:28). If you
have Jesus Christ, you have everything. Jesus Christ is the answer to all your
challenges or problems. Some people fight you out of insecurity, jealousy, carnality,
inferiority, and demons' influence.
Put on the whole armour
of God through watching, fasting, prayers, and connect with the Holy Spirit
because the Holy Spirit is our Father, Helper, and Guide. Sometimes life
becomes a burden when you don’t know what to do.
The fear of the future
can make you sad and self-destructive. Child of God, I have good news for you.
Jesus Christ is the answer to the storms you are facing. Men can help you to a
certain limit, but God’s help is unlimited.
From my research, I learned
that some of the main reasons people become mad are abuse (emotional, verbal,
social, physical, and any other abuses one can think of). Some people also
become insane because it is within the family lineage or hereditary disease.
Child of God, never allow
the abuse (mockery and persecutions) of humans and the manipulation of demons to
make you lose your mind because you are too precious and anointed to lose.
Christ Jesus is preparing a great kingdom for you!
People fight you in the
spirit and physically because they are below you. Make friends with people the Holy
Spirit leads you. Humankind can only help you based on their strength, but
God’s help is unlimited.
When you are going
through some pains and challenges, call on Jesus Christ, and He will answer. Seek
counseling from trusted people when you need guidance. The ways of God can be
mysterious sometimes because our limited wisdom cannot match God’s wisdom.
We walk with God by faith
(Meditate on Hebrews 11:6, 2 Corinthians 5:7). Faith is one of the most
important spiritual virtue a believer in Christ Jesus cannot ignore. Without the
seed and spirit faith, we can never work with God and for God. Without faith,
we can never become laborers in God’s Kingdom on earth (the church).
Sometimes I reason with the
Trinity (The Heavenly Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit)
because I want to know His plans for my life. I dump all my burdens on the Holy
Spirit because I am weak in the flesh to carry them. I unload my pains to the
Holy Spirit and rejoice in the goodness, grace, and favour of God because I
know His plans for my life are glorious.
Child of God, the same
applies to you. The plans of God for your life is to make you shine brighter
each day (See Jeremiah 29:11). As a Christian believer, your responsibility is
to align yourself with God’s principles, and He will fulfill His part.
There are a lot of promises
recorded in the living Word (Holy Bible). These promises will empower you to
walk with God despite the challenges and fears you encounter in life. Some
unbelievers and religious people may misunderstand you because they are
ignorant of God's plans for your life.
You are accountable to
God, so why don’t you please God than to pretend in the sight of men. Humankind
rewards are conditional and temporal, but God’s reward is everlasting. Most
often, the people you trust most are your greatest enemies in disguise.
Don’t solely rely on
humankind because they can betray you (Meditate on Jeremiah 17:5-8). Build your
trust in God and His Word because God’s Word will always stand the storm. You
may not understand why you are going through some challenges.
May I present to you that
you are a work in progress? Before a seed germinates in the soil, it needs
adequate sunlight, water, fertile soil, and protection. The seed must die in
the soil before it comes out (germinate). Meditate on this holy scripture.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of
wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it
bringeth forth much fruit.
John 12:24 KJV
You are the seed planted
in the soil. Some bad virtues in you must die because those bad virtues will cause
trouble in the arena God wants to plant you. You need adequate knowledge to
connect with certain people and places.
Without adequate
knowledge, you will limit God’s plan for your life and those connected to you
(Meditate on Hosea 4:6). God will allow you to pass through some storms because
His grace is sufficient for you. God is training you for a greater harvest. The
holy scriptures declare that the righteous falls seven times and rises seven
times (Meditate on Proverbs 24:16).
Failing in life does not
mean you cannot restart. Life is full of opportunities. If you fail in one section,
keep trying because God has not given up on you. The fact that you are alive
means God has a plan for you. The plans of God for your life are always bright.
Some people may conclude; you will never amount to anything in life.
Don’t allow their mockery,
insults, and persecutions to stop you. Focus on the vision God has given you
because that is the most important thing. The fact that someone failed in a
field you want to venture into does not mean you will also fail.
The love of God is
unlimited. If God sent His son Jesus Christ to die for us and open the door for
us to reconcile with Him, why won’t He give to us our request? Maybe
you have backslidden in the field of prayer, bible studies, evangelism, and
other important activities.
It is part of life. Rise
as a soldier of Christ Jesus. Repent and move on in life because your life is in
the hands of the righteous Judge (Jesus the Christ). The Holy Spirit is always
ready to assist you when you call on the name of the Heavenly Father in the
name of Jesus Christ (Meditate on Romans 10:13).
Our heart is the dwelling
place of the Holy Spirit. Speak from your heart, and the Holy Spirit will
respond. Jesus made a powerful statement.
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall
find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that
seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask
bread, will he give him a stone?
Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts
unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give
good things to them that ask him?
Matthew 7:7-11 KJV
I believe these golden
words will empower you and upgrade your faith to stand the storms of life. Hold
unto Jesus Christ because He has promised us, He will leave us nor forsake us
(See Hebrews 13:5). Glory to God!
