Submission Pt. 1


Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.James 4:7

We have to willingly submit to God's authority otherwise, the individual will be forcefully driven by the devil. Man was never created to be completely independent without a spiritual oversight.

In our daily lives as believers, it's required that we submit to one another. Ephesians 5:21,
"Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God." this is not a one way thing.

As man and wife, submission is required, to live a blessed and fruitful life together. Ephesians 5:22,25,33
"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. [25] Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; [33] Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband."

Any and everything about the kingdom of God is about submitting.
Accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, have to be done willingly(when you are willing, you submit). The person will have to, willingly submit to Christ's authority, Romans 10:9-10. If you don't submit to Christ, the enemy(devil) will forcefully impose himself on you, as a matter of fact, Satan is already the master, of the unsaved, through Adam's transgression and the disobedient.

There is a clear distinction between both kingdoms.
In identifying this, we need to understand the spirit behind the events of our daily lives.
Anything that is forceful or impulsive is from Satan's kingdom and its evil.
Following God's instructions requires our willingness, it requires our submission to His Leadership, it is freewill. God will never impose Himself on anybody. Revelation 3:20 say,
"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." This is how the blessing is activated; in a place of submission, and unity. Psalm 133:3.

Have a fruitful week, in Jesus name! 

Jesus is Lord!

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

In the world(unsaved) system, we work harder…and harder…and still fall behind. If we do find a way to get ahead, we pay a high price for it by sacrificing time in God’s WORD, our family relationships or our health. While the figures in our bankbooks tell us we’re getting richer, in reality we’re becoming poorer. That’s the way the world’s economic system works. One way or another, there’s always sorrow with it because it’s under the curse.  As believers, however, we are no longer under that curse! Jesus has redeemed us from it. We don’t have to earn a living with our sweat and toil. THE BLESSING makes us rich. Unlike the world, we aren’t BLESSED because we’re rich, we are rich because we’re BLESSED!. (kcm)#prosperityreality

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....
