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...

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...
