Speak in Christ 2

Anchor Scripture: "For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes." - Matthew 7:29

Scripture References: Acts 4: 13 - 31; Romans 8: 14 - 20; 2 Timothy 1: 7 - 14; 2 John 8 - 11

Admonition
Greetings from the Throne of grace!

Yesterday, the Lord took us through what Speaking in Christ means. Today, He will lead us through the importance. I pray He grants us a heart of understanding in Jesus' name. Amen.

The first noticeable importance of speaking in Christ for a true child of God is that it emboldens. That is, such a child of God receives inexplicable boldness from the Spirit of God to propagate the gospel, not minding what may happen. We could prove this when we juxtapose how Christ's disciples feared the Sanhedrin prior to the coming of the Holy Spirit and after the Spirit has been given to them. That is why Apostle Paul declared that we are not given the Spirit of fear.

Another thing is that when we choose to speak in Christ, we receive unmistaken authority from God. It is this authority that backs us up and convinces our listeners whenever we preach the Word to people that we know what we are talking about. It is also this authority that enables us to perform miracles without faking it as we see some people do today.

As we round off today, speaking in Christ is an inalienable characteristic that must be found in anyone who calls themselves a child of God, else, such a person may end up not FINISHING STRONG in and with God.

Till we meet tomorrow again on this beautiful journey of FINISHING STRONG together, please keep keeping on in Him!

Hold On To Your Faith

Anchor Scripture: “ Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him:” – Job 13: 15a Scripture References: Job 23: 8 – 12 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Another word for faith is TRUST. So, this morning, God is calling us to trust Him whatever our situations might be. The natural man will instinctually try as hard as possible to avoid pains and discomforts. However, the book of Job 5: 7 speaks a truth that is a common heritage of all humans. It says, “ Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.” And Job 14: 1 corroborates this truth, saying,  “ Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.” These are truth which no man has been able to disprove. Resting on these Scriptures, I do tell people during Bible classes that there is no man without his own trouble, no matter how little . And this is true irrespective of whom you are, what you have and or where you were born; we all have our own measures of troubles. The pro

UNDERSTANDING THE WILL OF GOD: Lean Not On Your Own Understanding

Anchor Scripture: Isaiah 55:8   For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.”   Focus Scripture: “ Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” – Proverbs 3: 5 Scripture Reference: Numbers 14: 39 - 45 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit made known to us that what is called the Will of God is God’s plan or Wish for us as His children, and that these cannot be changed by anyone or anything if we stick with Him. Sometimes, we tend to believe in ourselves because of some things such as talents, ability, resources, knowledge and or wisdom. Because of these things and many more, we take decisions without honouring God in our thoughts. At the end, God makes a mess of whatever venture we embarked on. Such was the Israelites in Numbers 14: 39 - 45. As said yesterday, just as each man has a thought or will for themselves, so is God for every man.

AVOID CONDEMNATION: Walk in the Spirit

Anchor Scripture: 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.”  Focus Scripture: “ This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. ” –Galatians 5: 16 Scripture References: John 3: 1 – 8, 16 - 19; Romans 1: 18 – 32, 1 – 14; Galatians 5: 16 – 26; 1 John 2: 15 - 17 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit of God admonished us to watch the companies we keep because our association with them could make us do things that are contrary to the Kingdom’s choice. And an example was given of Jehoshaphat. May God help us in Jesus name, amen. Today, we are being told to “Walk in the Spirit”. The Holy Spirit was given to us as Guardian to help and keep us in and on the way to the Kingdom. The Holy Spirit is a teacher, meant to teach us right from wrong and He helps us in making the right choices. Most often,
