YOUR ALLEGIANCE

John 17:20

“I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message.


Many teach a lot of things that are human sentiments, we hear things like, the blessings, power, miracles etc ended with the apostles. We hear of different secular authority in the body of Christ. We also see secular powers, humans and varying authorities trying to take authority as the church. However the truth remains that Christ seeks for those who will believe, Person by Person.


Christ's death and consequent salvation was for the whole world, however it remains a personal experience per person.


John 3:16

“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.


John 1:12

But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.


That is as you believe you become, whether you believed in 100AD, in 1466AD, 2022AD or in 2100AD. The salvation remains the same. 


It was a once and for all assignment and consequently a once and for all release of God's Holy Spirit.


The dispensation and timing is for us alone, however God remains unchangeable. The same power, glory and persecution at the start of things remain, all depending on what your assignment is and how far you are sent.


So today, remember that it is first You and the Heavenly Father, He makes us family when we come to Him.


Then each one of us who have been made family are family to one another as of one parent. Thus we have love for one another and edify one another.


We thus grow better and better with the right foundation.


Let no one take you away from the Lord. Yes we have teachers, leaders, pastors etc, however, your first allegiance is with the one who saved you - Christ Jesus. So with the right structure and all the gifts together, we work out Christ's purpose not against His purpose.

Many have confused the purpose to personal or group agendas. We shouldn't, we should focus on His will primarily.


Remember that every single human, no matter their title or claim will all give account to Christ - everyone!


Let no one take you away from the Lord!


Romans 8:38-39

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.

No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Glory to God forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
