THE PAIN THAT BROUGHT OUR JOY PART 1

Who has ever thought that redemption is free of Charge?
Or who has ever thought that our enemy the devil would watch us enjoy the riches of the Kingdom of God free of charge?

Oh Yes! Redemption is free because someone paid the price and we have the legal right to the riches of the Kingdom of God because of the same price that was paid.

What was the Price?  The price was the blood of Jesus which was by the death of Jesus, because there is no forgiveness of sin without the shedding of blood Hebrews 9:22

So the death of Jesus was the price tag on our redemption!

Another question arises, how come Jesus can pay the Price? Was He not God? Did he have to pay the Price? Yes Jesus was God John 10:30 but He bore our sins as a man and not as God, all the miracles He performed, he performed them as man and that was why He had to fast to be endued with power Luke 4:1, Acts 1:8.
And that explains why Jesus lived a life of godliness and was announced to be the son of God in godliness as in 1Tim 3:16
" 1Ti 3:16And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." (KJV)
Everything Jesus did in the flesh, godliness was the order.
Jesus was able to carry the sins because He lived a life of Godliness and also His birth and conception was of the Holy Ghost making Him to carry our sins, because he that is with sin has no power to cleanse us of sin that was why He was made of the origin of the Holy Ghost through His conception because he that is born of a man has sin. So Jesus' origin permitted Him to carry our sins, but that was not all, He still had to work out his own "salvation" by living a life of Godliness and subjecting 100% to the Holy Ghost.
Thanks and God bless you, I know you enjoyed the post, stay tuned for the next post, "Was the Cross actually painful? "

COVENANT UNIVERSITY @ 13 A birthplace of Kings and Queen A breeding ground for Eagles A birthplace of entrepreneurs A breeding place of leaders In the order of Father of Eagle Papa Covenant University was born out of intimacy Between Father Eagle and FATHER GOD Making the university to be a GOD-versity Little wonder does she make exploits and Break new grounds that cannot be made by universities Little wonder did her eagle make exploits Fellow men could not achieve in 50 years Little wonder her eagles and eaglets remain outstanding in all her endeavors.

The Blessedness Of Obedience

Understanding Obedience What is obedience? Obedience is the demonstration of the multifaceted wisdom of God. It is proving God true in whatever He says and is a sincere act of faith. I need you to understand the wisdom and the power of God in His Word. And not just the power but the wisdom therein as in the book of John 1:14 "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,(and we beheld his glory,the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth" From this scripture we understand that Jesus is the Word of God and from the book of Corinthians 1:24 "...Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God." So when the Word of God goes forth it is Jesus going forth and backed up with the power of God and wisdom of God for quick manifestation as in Hebrews 4:12. Then what is the essence of obeying when God's Word is that powerful? Going back to the beginning when the World was created look what God Himself said in Genesis 1:26 "And God said,l

IN FELLOWSHIP WITH JESUS PART 4

BUILDING YOUR VALUE SYSTEM AS A CHRISTIAN The first question that should come to your mind is  WHAT IS VALUE?  WHAT IS A SYSTEM?  According to late Dr. Myles Munroe value is anything you value A system is a set down rule(s) or guideline(s) geared towards attaining a goal Then a value system would be set down rule or guideline to whatever we value to attain a goal. As Christians the definition now becomes this  Value System is a set of biblical guideline(s) aimed at becoming like JESUS in every sphere of life Rom 8:29, 2 nd Cor 3:18. I would love to let us know that we CHRISTIANS are people of substance, people of virtue just as GOD in HIS imag e is Gen 1:26, but blindness has become the order of the day that a believer begins to look outside the household of faith to find solutions to her problems. It should please be noted that we CHRISTIANS are people of TIMBER AND CALIBER fearfully made in the image of GOD to look at issues in the eyeballs and
