AFD JANUARY 2021 THEMED EDITION

GREETINGS:

Shalom! Kingdom  & Redemption greetings in the precious and redeeming name of our gracious Saviour, Lord and King, Jesus Christ, Amen. My wife Faith and I would like to welcome you to the dawn of the new month January 2021 and the Year 2021. We also say welcome to the new and existing recipients of the Achievers’ FAITH Digest, the Monthly TEACHING Newsletter publication, of Year 2021.

This special edition of the AFD is the annual publication for YEAR 2021. Year 2021 is our year that is themed: YEAR OF POSSIBILITIES! “A YEAR To  Thrive And Live With Purpose And Fulfilment In God’s Righteousness in Christ Jesus”.

I do know that a man’s ignorance is his own mountain and the knowledge of the truth will set him free. Hence I therefore commend you to take time to ponder and meditate on the theme through and through in prayers and where possible accompany with fasting even as the Scripture below do enjoin.

Acts 20:32 “And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified”

YEAR 2021: It’s Now EARTHLY Official And HEAVENLY Approved!

“I will give you the keys (authority) of the kingdom of HEAVEN; and whatever you BIND [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] on EARTH will have [already] been bound in heaven, and whatever you LOOSE [permit, declare lawful] on EARTH will have [already] been loosed in HEAVEN” Matthew 16:19 (Amplified).

I SAY WELCOME TO A HAPPY and BLESSED DAWN YEAR 2021 that the Lord God had MADE and CROWN for our good and well-being as it’s written:

“This is the DAY (YEAR2021) which the LORD hath MADE; WE will REJOICE and be GLAD in IT” Psalms 118:24 (Emphasis Mine).

“Thou CROWNEST THE YEAR with thy GOODNESS; and thy PATHS DROP FATNESS (ABUNDANCE). 12 They drop upon the PASTURES of the WILDERNESS: and the little HILLS rejoice on every side. 13 The PASTURES are clothed with FLOCKS; the VALLEYS also are COVERED over with CORN; they SHOUT for JOY, they also SING” Psalms 65:11-13.

A YEAR OF LIVING THE POSSIBILITIES LIFE – that is – Living The Greater, Thriving & Colourful, Purposeful and Fulfilling life In The Consciousness Of God’s Righteousness In Christ Jesus Stead.

May God give you GRACE, WISDOM and SPEED for YEAR2021 RACE, and upgrade you from THANKSGIVING to THANKS-LIVING on each passing moment of the GEORGIAN CALENDAR count of 12Months, 52Weeks, 365Days, 87600Hours, 525600Minutes, 37536000Seconds. AMEN. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“He has MADE EVERYTHING (YEAR2021) beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified) (Emphasis Mine).

“Know ye not that they which RUN IN A RACE run all, but one receiveth the prize? So RUN, that ye may OBTAIN. 25 And every man that STRIVETH FOR THE MASTERY IS TEMPERATE in all things. Now they do it to OBTAIN a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 26 I therefore so RUN, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:24-27.

“ARISE, SHINE; FOR THY LIGHT IS COME, and the GLORY of the Lord is RISEN upon thee. 2 For, behold, the DARKNESS shall cover the earth, and GROSS DARKNESS the people: but the Lord shall ARISE upon thee, and his GLORY shall be SEEN upon thee. 3 And the GENTILES shall come to thy light, and KINGS to the BRIGHTNESS of thy RISING” Isaiah 60:1-3.

THE DAWN OF POSSIBILITIES – YEAR 2021: The Start Up Of JANUARY 2021!

“For with thee is the FOUNTAIN OF LIFE: in thy LIGHT shall we see LIGHT” Psalms 36:9.

For every places the sole of your feet shall tread upon, shall be yours for the taken, and everything your hands shall touch shall be crown with God’s goodness, grace, wisdom, blessing and speed, in Jesus precious name, Amen!

May the grace of Numbers 6:24-26, be with you accordingly as it’s written:

“The Lord BLESS thee, and KEEP thee: 25 the Lord MAKE his face SHINE upon thee, and be GRACIOUS unto thee: 26 the Lord LIFT UP his COUNTENANCE upon thee, and GIVE thee peace”

I COMMEND you to God and His WORD and the POWER of His grace, that by the effectual Holy Spirit enabling, that as you GO FORTH in this MIGHT of POSSIBILITIES today, it shall be to you an onwards and upwards trend of altitude; that you may BECOME what you BELIEVE of God, in and for YEAR 2021 in Jesus precious name.

** My Heart Is INDITING Graciously And Gracefully On YEAR 2021 of This DECADE 2020S: A “YEAR OF POSSIBILITIES” & A DECADE OF “BEING SIGNIFICANT” IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

My heart is inditing a THRIVING and GREENER YEAR 2021 in the face and state of absolute chaos, nothingness, voidance and nightmares that have befallen many lives on a constant and daily basis; and by the Spirit of the GREATER and HIGHER life in God in Christ Jesus, I am so ASSURED of God in HIS GRACE, that LIGHT will BEAM again as it was in God at Genesis in the beginning of time – Genesis 1:1-3; 2 Corinthians 4:6.

The present challenges in time can only get better over time; and it’s already evolving a new DAWN of creativity, innovation, exploring and initiatives that will take care of the New DAWN. It’s about living in the consciousness of God’s righteousness in Christ Jesus towards all things that pertains to doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY, in order to take advantage STAND in the NEW BECOMING.

In summary YEAR 2021 is possibility year of LIVING and THRIVING for the GREATER, COLOURFUL, PURPOSEFUL AND FULFILLING life in the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Christ Jesus stead. A time of BLOSSOMING in the consciousness of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS – in doing LIFE and living GODLY in our WORLDS of activities.

** And a person of PURPOSEFUL DILIGENCE will be rewarded to stand in the place of honour and dignity – Proverbs 22:28-29/Hebrews 11:6.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“My HEART is INDITING a GOOD MATTER: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. 2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: GRACE is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. 3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. 4 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. 5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under thee. 6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. 7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness ABOVE thy fellows” Psalms 45:1-7.

“And God said unto Jacob, ARISE, GO UP TO BETH-EL, AND DWELL THERE: AND MAKE THERE AN ALTAR UNTO GOD, that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother. 2 Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments: 3 AND LET US ARISE, AND GO UP TO BETH-EL; AND I WILL MAKE THERE AN ALTAR UNTO GOD, WHO ANSWERED ME IN THE DAY OF MY DISTRESS, AND WAS WITH ME IN THE WAY WHICH I WENT. 4 And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem. 5 And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob . . . 9 AND GOD APPEARED UNTO JACOB AGAIN, when he came out of Padan-aram, AND BLESSED HIM. 10 AND GOD SAID UNTO HIM, THY NAME IS JACOB: THY NAME SHALL NOT BE CALLED ANY MORE JACOB, BUT ISRAEL SHALL BE THY NAME: AND HE CALLED HIS NAME ISRAEL. 11 And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins; 12 and the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land. 13 And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him. 14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, even a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon. 15 And JACOB CALLED THE NAME OF THE PLACE WHERE GOD SPAKE WITH HIM, BETH-EL . . .” Genesis 35:1-29.

** SETTING YEAR2021 READILY READY: There’s The NEED To PRAY!

PRAYER is – Engaging the HEAVENLY permission into your EARTHLY affairs; so it is in getting readily ready to take on and take charge of YEAR2021. Year2021 DEMANDS such enabling of the heavenly TIMELESS timeline into our earthly TIMED timeline. DON’T YOU THINK SO? and If Yes – then give it a GO today – meaning you can start now. Start letting the heavenly into your set out PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT that will count and account for your good in YEAR2021.

PRAYER is the PATH to have your thoughts and plan ESTABLISHED readily in the spiritual – heavenly – realm, prior to authenticate and enact tangibly; just as a horse is made readily ready for the battle and challenging times ahead. It is the spiritual realm that gives the physical synergy of life – do yourself a favour – PRAY, so that you FAINT not and live a WORRY free life.

There’s the NEED to HEAR God for yourself on that your intended PLANS, PURPOSE and PURSUIT; rather than waiting for one prophecy of someone to define you on MATTERS that they can’t carry through life or YEAR2021 on your behalf. God hears and PRAYERS. Talk with Him yourself.

GIVE GOD A CALL TODAY – HE WILL ANSWER WHEN IT RINGS ON HIS THRONE – Revelation 5:8; Revelation 8:3-4.

Be Blessed In Your Earthly Cause To doing LIFE And living GODLY in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“The horse is PREPARED against the DAY OF BATTLE: but safety is of the Lord” Proverbs 21:31.

“The PLANS and REFLECTIONS (PREPARATION) of the heart BELONG to man, But the [wise] answer of the tongue is from the Lord . . . 3 COMMIT YOUR WORKS to the Lord [submit and trust them to Him], AND YOUR PLANS WILL SUCCEED [if you respond to His will and guidance] . . . 9 A MAN’S MIND PLANS his way [as he journeys through life], But the Lord DIRECTS HIS STEPS and ESTABLISHES them” Proverbs 16:1, 3, 9 (Amplified).

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men OUGHT ALWAYS TO PRAY, and not to FAINT (GIVE UP, GO WEARY, LOOSE HEART)” Luke 18:1 (Emphasis Mine).

“Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The HEARTFELT AND PERSISTENT PRAYER of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]” James 5:16 (Amplified).

“PRAYING ALWAYS WITH ALL PRAYER and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints” Ephesians 6:18.

“O You who HEAR prayer, To You all mankind comes” Psalms 65:2 (Amplified).

“CALL to Me and I will ANSWER you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things, [things which have been confined and hidden], which you do not know and understand and cannot distinguish” Jeremiah 33:3 (Amplified).

“And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a MOUNTAIN TO PRAY. 29 And AS HE PRAYED, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering” Luke 9:28-29.

** PREPAREDNESS – YEAR 2021: NO ROOM FOR PROCRASTINATION – If You Must LIVE & GLIDE In The GREATER LIFE POSSIBILITIES!

DON’T TAKE THE ACT OF DOING LIFE FOR GRANTED, NO MATTER YOUR CAREER OR DOINGS IN LIFE – BE PREPARED IF YOU MUST SUCCEED WITH GOD.PROCRASTINATION is not just only a THIEF of ones precious TIME, but a lazy PERSON’S act of APOLOGY or EXCUSES. And that’s the HOW you want DO LIFE and LIVE GODLY in YEAR 2021. To LIVE and GLIDE IN THE GREATER LIFE POSSIBILITIES in YEAR 2021, there’s the NEED for PREPAREDNESS, that is, being prepared with a set out PLAN and PURPOSE in BLACK & WHITE with a PURSUIT mandate OUTLINED. You can’t suddenly wake up into a new DAWN year, wanting to live on a mere made PROPHECY as many have done and remain same because they assume things without a set PLAN to become in Christ Jesus.

You need NOT live or do life again by PROCRASTINATION. There’s the need to be ‘PREPARED READILY AS THE HORSE’ before you take on, take over and turn into YEAR2021. You don’t need to wait for CHANCE to BECOME in God and to make Success, Prosperity and FULFILMENT in life ready for you.

There’s an INDICATOR or DEFAULT in life, which is – when you don’t PLAN to succeed in life, you are equally PLANNING to fail in life at the same time. A no planning is a planning too. Hence there’s this great need to make PLAN with intended PURPOSE to give the needed act of PURSUIT, in order to thrive, succeed, triumph and become with God through His Word, Prayer and Holy Spirit leadership.

The act PREPAREDNESS – PLAN, PURPOSE & PURSUITS – is more than just making a NEW YEAR RESOLUTION. It’s a STRATEGIC RESOLVED and not a WISHY-WASHY intent that disappears after few days, weeks or months and on some baseless Prophecies that keeps many in a SLOTHFUL and SLUGGARD position for a magical miracle. You need to NOTE THIS –

“The outward manifestation of grace is the resolved of your secret dealings with the LORD GOD as His ambassador in Christ Jesus stead” Chukie Morsi Snr

No man goes to a STRONG man’s house UNPREPARED if you intend to POSSESS or DISPOSSESS him and his cohorts. Meaning, YEAR 2021 is at the cutting-edge in this anchor-leg generation of ADVANCING the kingdom of God and to KEEP the enemy and cohorts at bay; and as such, there’s the need to PREPARE yourself with the tools to ensure your goals, just as the HORSE is usually been PREPARED before the DAY of the BATTLE or RACE.

PREPARING as the HORSE means DILIGENTLY setting out PLAN with PURPOSE and the act of PURSUIT by the WORD and PRAYER in the graciousness and gracefulness of the Holy Spirit on God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Wisdom will demand you understand your TIME and OPPORTUNITY in order to take on your life endeavours for YEAR2021, otherwise you may be cut up suddenly with life challenges UNPREPARED and you know the end game for unpreparedness is simply – FAILURE of not to have PREPARED.

DON’T TAKE THE ACT OF DOING LIFE FOR GRANTED, NO MATTER YOUR CAREER OR DOINGS IN LIFE – BE PREPARED IF YOU MUST SUCCEED WITH GOD.

EVERY GRACE AND BLESSING.

“The PLANS of the mind and ORDERLY thinking BELONG to man, but from the Lord comes the [wise] ANSWER of the tongue. 2 All the WAYS of a man are pure in his own eyes, but the Lord WEIGHS the spirits (the thoughts and intents of the heart). 3 ROLL your WORKS upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will CAUSE your THOUGHTS to BECOME agreeable to His will, and] so shall your PLANS be ESTABLISHED and SUCCEED . . . 7 When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, He MAKES even his enemies to be at peace with him . . . 9 A man’s mind PLANS his way, but the Lord directs his STEPS and makes them SURE” Proverbs 16:1-3, 7, 9 (Amplified).

** TURNING INTO A NEW DAWN – YEAR2021: DILIGENCE WILL ALWAYS PAY GOOD DIVIDEND!


GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL living is about working SMARTLY in FAITH and not about working HARD in FATE. And it’s not for the fear phobia’s, timid, fainter’s and cowards that easily give up, loose hearts and wave the white flags by any means but it’s for the emboldened in the FAITH that no matter what may, God is FAITHFUL and will REWARD DILIGENCE. For EFFECTUAL dividend comes through the Faith COMMUNICATION of the acknowledgement of the glorious goodness and gracious greatness in you by Christ Jesus as in the Holy Writ of Philemon 1:4-6.

Every DILIGENT beginning will surely increase GRACIOUSLY, GRACEFULLY and GLORIOUSLY. God had CALLED and BLESSED you, having FOREKNOWN you, PREDESTINATED you, FORGIVEN you, JUSTIFIED you and GLORIFIED you, so that ALL things being done by you through DILIGENCE might work together for your GOODNESS and ABUNDANCE and BLESSEDNESS in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. That’s God’s SET position for you in His PURPOSEFUL Sanctuary from the beginning. So get SET for the dawn coming YEAR2021. For there’s NO ROOM FOR THE SLUGGARD AND SLOTHFUL, because your FUTURE greatness is UNDENIABLE and IRREVOCABLE while you are on DILIGENT walk with the Lord. AMEN.

JUST KNOW THAT IN TURNING INTO A NEW DAWN – YEAR2021, THAT DILIGENCE WILL ALWAYS PAY GOOD DIVIDEND.BLESSED REGARDS AS YOU GET SET THROUGH DILIGENCE IN HOURS TO COME INTO YEAR2021.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before KINGS (Honour, Dignity); he shall not STAND before MEAN (Sluggard, Obscured) men” Proverbs 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).

** CONNECT AND SYNCHRONISE INTO YEAR2021 BY FAITH NOT BY FATE: ENTERING A TIMED YEAR WITH A TIMELESS GOD ON A TIMELESS WORD!

FAITH is Now – The Realm of the TIMELESS. And God lives by His TIMELESS WORD in a TIMELESS sphere and realm – called ETERNITY – IMMORTALITY. Humanity lives in a TIMED YEARLY count of a TIMED world – called MORTALITY. Hence we can say YEAR 2020 is ENDING and we are about STARTING another year but which may not be of the same outlook but is TIMED the same and it’s called YEAR 2021. And it is God who LIVES and REIGN in the TIMELESS realm of ETERNITY by His WORD, that DEFINES the humanity in the TIMED YEARLY count of the TIMED world; This is ONLY because DAY and NIGHT, YEARS, MONTHS, WEEKS, DAYS, HOURS, MINUTES and SECONDS are same before God, while in humanity we do COUNT differently and are limited as a result.

The ONLY factor of connection and synchronising between the TIMED world of humanity and TIMELESS world of God is FAITH. FAITH is TIMELESS, it’s of the WORD of God and it is in the NOW and of ETERNITY, which operates through the indwelling human spirit in mankind, that enables one to live above the limitations of the TIMED world by the help of the TIMELESS WORD of TIMELESS timeline realm of God. FAITH is the only DE FACTO given to men to ENSURE and ASSURE, to AUTHENTICATE and ENACT, the difference so desired in order to be a MORE THAN CONQUERORS, to OVERCOME, to ACHIEVE, to THRIVE, to WIN, to SUCCEED and to TRIUMPH over all of the circumstances and limitations before humanity in mortality statuesque.

YEAR2020 ending and YEAR2021 starting are only in MEASURE by man, but not with God. Hence CONNECT and SYNCHRONISE by FAITH today and you will enjoy the FULLNESS of God with a set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUITS, rather than the making of those year to year UNACHIEVABLE and UNNECESSARY new year resolution with a BASELESS foundation that disappears or forgotten in few weeks or months time as it’s often done by many. TIMELESS FAITH is only operative by the TIMELESS WORD. You can ONLY PLEASE God by FAITH. Pleasing God brings about DILIGENCE that rewards and helps to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. CONNECT AND SYNCHRONISE INTO YEAR2021 BY FAITH NOT BY FATE BY THE ENTERING THE TIMED YEAR WITH A TIMELESS GOD ON A TIMELESS WORD.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“To EVERYTHING there is a SEASON, A TIME for every PURPOSE under heaven . . . 11 He has MADE everything BEAUTIFUL in its time. Also He has put ETERNITY in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11 (Amplified).

“For whatever is born of God OVERCOMES the WORLD. And this is the victory that has OVERCOMES the WORLD—our FAITH. 5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

“NOW FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things HOPED for, the EVIDENCE of things not SEEN. 2 For by IT the elders OBTAINED a good testimony. 3 By FAITH we UNDERSTAND that the WORLDS were FRAMED by the WORD of God, so that the things which are SEEN were not MADE of things which are VISIBLE . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE HIM: for he that COMETH to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:1-3, 6.”When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

** ENABLING THE GRACE FOR YEAR2021: It’s In Your PRIMARY And PURPOSEFUL Call!

The enabling GRACE for you to do life and live godly in YEAR2021, is in your PRIMARY and PURPOSEFUL call in life. That is to be WITH the LORD, wherein you will be EMPOWERED in Him in order to ACHIEVE, SUCCEED and be FULFILLED with His GRACE, MERCY, LOVE, PEACE, WISDOM And SPEED.

Beloved friend, you don’t need to be in a rush to enter Year2021 and start marking unfounded New Year RESOLUTIONS and PRONOUNCEMENTS that you can’t even keep beyond few days or weeks or months afterwards.

Herein are some matters to consider carefully to curb these unnecessary artificial display that makes no impart and impact to your well-being in Christ Jesus stead.

FIRSTLY, It’s a high time you need to take STOCK and INVENTORY of your life in YEAR2020 that’s about ending, before taking on YEAR2020. This you do in these wise as an example:

** All those your SELF-WILLED power of rushing hours into your day before its dawn, has it made any difference in you without stress instead of God’s promised rest?** Those your lengthy days of UNENDING FASTING to prove HOW SPIRITUAL YOU ARE, has it made any remarkable difference in you? Or was it a statuesque to keep, though its a hunger strike and pride in disguise, but you just called it FASTING to make it seem spiritual?

** Have you not wonder that God wants you to THRIVE, BLOSSOM and be COLOURFUL? And not to SURVIVE or be a SURVIVAL? And to live in LEISURE and PLEASURE, and not in PRESSURE or STRESS? And noting especially all the HARDWORK instead of SMARTWORK you claimed to put in each day to make life WORTH LIVING?SECONDLY, this is my take on you because I can’t help not seeing you THRIVE, BLOSSOM and be COLOURFUL in God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS; instead of seeing you a SURVIVE or be a SURVIVAL as some have acclaimed to be their terms of living; also, my knowing full well that from your first primary call to SALVATION in Christ Jesus, you can be EMPOWERED to succeed and triumph, especially as such a time as this with YEAR2020 closing down and YEAR2021 starting up.

It’s your TIME To Be With The LORD to receive what it TAKES to make LIFE WORTH LIVING instead of DOING Nothing and just watching the day or YEAR2020 go bye into YEAR 2021 new start.

All I am saying is that it’s a good time NOT to start asking or making demands, but to just be with Father God in the name of Jesus – by ONLY and SOLELY MINISTERING to Him and Enjoying His presence. It is in this act THEN He can EMPOWER you and SEND you FORTH into YEAR2021 with His GRACE, MERCY, LOVE, PEACE, WISDOM and SPEED in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. This will enable you to DO all your LIFE and GRACE endeavours and bidding without fail, stress and sweat.

I wants to promise you, you’ll live in REST and LEISURE, that is – stress free, sweat free, pressure and worry free, as you are SENT from God’s PRESENCE than when you are a mere WISHY-WASHY GOER on self designed and proclaim ambitions outside God in His Christ Jesus. You need to DERIVE strenght from the Lord and in the power of His might to make life a LIVING WORTH.I sincerely beg you of the need to learn and apply this SCRIPTURAL PRINCIPLE to all you do in life:

You are saved and called PRIMARILY and PURPOSEFULLY to be with Father God in Christ Jesus; it’s therein He EMPOWERS you to SUCCEED and be FULFILLED in life. This is what and how Jesus Christ did life in grace with Father God in humanity and has left us as example for us to learn of Him towards the Father God. Amen.

IN SUMMARY:

** We are SAVED and CALLED – To Be With Him!

** We are then EMPOWERED – To Thrive, Succeed and be Fulfilled by God’s Speed.

** We are then ENDOWED with Grace, Wisdom And Speed – to makes all the DIFFERENCE with God.

** We have the RESULTANT effects with Rest, Leisure And Pleasure in Christ Jesus – just as we are PROMISED and not Stress, worry (anxiety), Pressure in walking in our own efforts.

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into THIS GRACE WHEREIN WE STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2.

“And he goeth up into a mountain, and CALLETH unto him WHOM he WOULD: and they came unto him. 14 And he ORDAINED twelve, THAT THEY SHOULD BE WITH HIM, and that he might SEND them forth to preach, 15 and to have POWER to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils” Mark 3:13-15.

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH of LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is fulness of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND there are pleasures for evermore” Psalms 16:11.

“And in the morning, RISING UP a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a SOLITARY PLACE, and there PRAYED” Mark 1:35.

“There remaineth therefore a REST to the people of God. 10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. 11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief” Hebrews 4:9-11.

“. . . 11 for with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is the REST wherewith ye may cause the WEARY TO REST; and this is the REFRESHING: yet they would not hear . . .” Isaiah 28:9-13.

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to HIS PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he called, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he justified, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:28-30.”God is FAITHFUL, by whom ye were CALLED unto the FELLOWSHIP of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9.

** BUILD YOU LIFE & FAITH ON THE SURE WORD OF GOD: NOT ON MAN-MADE MAKE-UP BELIEVES & MERE PROPHECIES!

YEAR 2020 should be a LESSON for any wise person as I have always said overtime why you must BUILD LIFE and FAITH on THE WORD of God if you must ACHIEVE and SUCCEED with God. Otherwise, mere mortal men, in the name of God and not assuredly moved by the Holy Spirit, will make a caricature of you through your ignorance and vulnerability, to offer you vision and prophecies that are enticing to your sentimental desires. Open your eyes to search the Scriptures for your own good and favour as the Bereän Christian of Acts 17:10-13.

The Pandemic have proven while a mere one night crossover message and prophecies and NEW YEAR RESOLUTION is not what makes you BECOME in God, but it’s your DILIGENCE work of FAITH by God’s grace on the set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT that gives you the enabling into the fulness of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Proverbs 22:29; Hebrews 11:6; Proverbs 16:1-3, 7-9. Let the DEFINITION of you LIFE and FAITH in God, be by the WORD in the FACE of Christ Jesus, on that PREPARED – PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT – you’ve set forth for YEAR2021.

Know for SURE and CERTAINTY, that the NEW CREATION, which you are in Christ Jesus, have A MORE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY in the light of the SCRIPTURES by the reason of our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Therefore, do life and live godly, in the FACE of what Christ Jesus HAS DONE, HE’S DOING and will do in and through you by the Holy Spirit within you by God’s WORD, to make you BECOME what THE WORD said you ARE in Him and will be BY Him and THROUGH Him. This will save you from the falsehoods and errors around that have befallen many today.

If there be a PROPHECY or PROPHESYINGS, despised not at first but EXAMINE it by the SURE WORD OF PROPHECY if it be of God. Genuine PROPHECY or PROPHESYINGS is to bring about COMFORTS, EXHORTATION AND EDIFICATION; and not fear, intimidation, cursing, threatening and such like or the demands for tokens in cash or kind to make it come to pass. God is not the AUTHOR OF CONFUSION and He does not CONFUSED His children.

I admonish you to SEEK after God today into the YEAR2021, through His WORD and not through men or man-made make believe, that will keep you in BONDAGE and under or towards them and not after or toward Christ Jesus. For you BECOME what and whom you BELIEVE. You are a product of your essence of BELIEVE. Today I charge you to BELIEVE God and His WORD in Christ Jesus stead, so that you can BECOME in Him whatsoever you want to be of Him.

You have a SURE WORD of PROPHECY which is the Holy Writs, that is speaking FORTH of what you ARE and you’ve BECOME in Christ Jesus. For the spirit of genuine PROPHECY is the TESTIMONY (TESTIFYING) of Jesus Christ; meaning it will draw and pull you towards God in Christ Jesus and not toward men. And it does not lead any to further BONDAGE or SLAVERY as to men or satan or self. The SURE WORD of PROPHECY which is of God in Christ Jesus, is not BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER and GRIEVOUS; but it liberates at no cost or charge, and is solely and only, being fulfilled in Christ Jesus as done for us in REDEMPTION; and it’s not on men’s DEMANDS for tokens in cash and or kind, to make it come to pass. As you get set TODAY to TURN INSIDE OUT YEAR 2021 into reality, take a STAND by the WORD through FAITH in God’s GRACE in Christ Jesus; and not a mere WISHY-WASHY NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS and man-made PROPHECIES to make you momentarily joyous and afterwards lost in disbelieve what you’ve become outside God by the evaporation of what wasn’t God’s SURE WORD OF PROPHECY that you ignorantly bank upon.

As we are set to turn into our TIMED TIMELINE YEAR2021, I wish you God’s BEST in His grace and BLESSEDNESS as you RESOLVE to make God’s WORD your SURE WORD OF PROPHECY to help you EXAMINE every other Prophecies and SAYINGS if they be of God, so that you can slide effortlessly, graciously and gracefully into and through YEAR2021 without hitches and regrets. That’s how you walk in the LIGHT and not in darkness in YEAR2021.

AFD OCTOBER 2016 EDITION

oct_2016_afd-theme_rlic-two-234x132GREETINGS:
Shalom! Kingdom & Redemption Life Greetings!! WELCOME to the new and existing recipients of the Achievers’ FAITH Digest, the Monthly TEACHING Newsletter publication of Year 2016. More so, welcome to this gracious and graceful October Month, which is the tenth month of the leap year and is themed: TRANSFORMING OUR WORLDS IN PRAYERS! “Giving The Heavens The Permission In our Earthly Affairs”

I gracefully and graciously welcome you into this October month of transforming our worlds through prayers by abounding in the presence of our God; A time of giving the heavens the permission to make the desire change or changes you so greatly desire to happen to you. And upon that I do pray that His grace, peace, love and mercy might take hold of you for this cause, with all things under your feet and control according to the Holy covenanted Scriptures as written and spoken concerning you in Christ Jesus precious name, Amen!

Luke 9:28-29 “And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. 29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering”.

Psalms 16:11 “Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore“.

Romans 12:1-2 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God“.

It’s time now to stop the well long enough static stay on the mount. The struggling and standstill in your path of progress. You can by today and through this month overturn THAT mountain to become a plain by engaging your life through the awesome acts of prayers. I mean, being transformed into the realm of the outpouring of God’s favour in everyway of your worlds.

This is the Month of engaging your life in a different dimension with our Father God. It’s not the acts of living BY Prayers, that is, whenever you like or when at trouble time only; but living life IN Prayers if you must have your worlds completely transform as Jesus did and experience in His earthly ministry with the Father God; which the Apostles also follow suits and experience God’s shekinah glory and presence to influence their worlds as they walk on this earth just as us today. We are either living in God’s presence of being IN PRAYERS to be transformed from glory to glory or we are conforming to the detects of our circumstances to relate and commune with our Father God whenever it pleases us. To be transformed is to win and succeed while to be conformed is to fail and be made captive by the foe of our faith in Christ Jesus.

Personal & National Prayer Walls: Do You Have One?  There’s the need to have one if you MUST make a remarkable eternal effect and difference in an Earthly life before God and mankind. Changing the course of human history by divinity, eternally is possible – Isaiah 38:1-8.
* When There’s No Rain (Productivity & Economic stunted) to thrive and for growth.
* When The Locusts (Economic recessions & Austerity Measures) invades & rules the land (Nations).
* When Pestilence (Divers kinds of continuous Diseases & Sicknesses) invades the land (Nations) despite all the research and technology in medical science.
“If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; 14 if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place” 2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

IN PRAYER: The Antidote To National ills! -1 Timothy 2:1-4.
Awakening calls to changing the course of your nation through PRAYERS – It’s The Believer’s In Christ Inescapable & Supreme Task!  This should become the Personal & National Prayer Walls task to turn the hearts of kings & leaders if we must stop complaining and blaming Politicians who are human’s and limited in every phase to meet the needs of others beyond their self-centered and selfish ends. There’s the need to awaken to this TASK if we MUST make a remarkable eternal effect & the difference we care about in an earthly Life before our God, community and humanity. Making the changes, difference and the course of human history eternally is a must for the good of all in prayers.
Making a difference & impact through prayers as written:
* When There’s No Rain (Productivity & Economic stunted) to thrive and for growth.
* When The Locusts (Economic recessions & Austerity Measures) invades & rules the land (Nations).
* When Pestilence (Divers kinds of continuous Diseases & Sicknesses) invades the land (Nations) despite all the research and technology in medical science.
“If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; 14 if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place”  2 Chronicles 7:13-15.

I do know that a man’s ignorance is his own mountain and the knowledge of the truth will set him free. Hence I therefore commend you to take time to ponder and meditate on the theme through and through in prayers.

Acts 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

Herein Are Further Scriptural Reading To This Month OCTOBER Theme:

1 Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord”.

2 Corinthians 3:18 “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord“.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15 “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works“.

Romans 8:26-27 “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God“.

Colossians 1:13-14  “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins“.

Mark 3:13-15 “And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would: and they came unto him. 14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, 15 and to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils

Luke 11:1-13 “And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples. And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? and he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee. I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth. And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

However, this OCTOBER 2016 theme will be expanded in course of the SERVICES & TIMES in all meetings through the year and Month in “Scripture Pasture” Study and “Pastoral Messages & Ministrations”.

Brightening Your Life

Brightening Your Life With God’s Goodness!

The good Lord intend to crown our year and flourish our life with His goodness, and to cause our paths to drop with His Abundance. This He will do as we allow Him to brighten our life with His life. More of this will be expanded in course of the pastoral ministry in Church services by our dear pastor, Revd Chukie MORSI. There is a study outline themed “Daily Transformation” on the  Scripture Search Study category to assist you also.

However the following scriptures may be a guide for you. Blessed reading and understanding:

Psalm 65:11-13 11 You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance. 12 They drop on the pastures of the wilderness, And the little hills rejoice on every side. 13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; The valleys also are covered with grain;  They shout for joy, they also sing.”

Psalm 16:11 11 You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

Ezekiel 47:1212 Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine.”

Proverbs 4: 18 “18 But the path of the just is like the shining sun (light), That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.”

John 8: 12 12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

John 1: 1 – 5, 9 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend (overcome) it. 9 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.”

Proverbs 4:20-22 20 My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. 21 Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; 22 For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.”

Malachi 4:2 “2 But to you who fear My name the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; And you shall go out and grow fat like stall-fed calves.”

Psalm 84:11 11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly.

Acts 26:1313 at midday, O king, along the road I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who journeyed with me.

Luke 9:28-2928 Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening.”

Romans 12:1-2 1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

2 Corinthians 4:18 18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”

Christian Men & Their Role In Local Church Matters

TOPIC: “Christian Men & Their Role In The Local Church Matters”

BIBLE TEXT: 1 Peter 2:5, 9; Matthew 16:17-19; Ephesians 5:22-33

INTRODUCTION (Preamble): The Christian men have a lot to do and contribute in the affairs of the local church. The local church is an extension of the family. Just as the man play a very major part in the family decision, he also need to know that the kingdom of God is no exceptional. The ideal that men should come to the church and watch the women and children only doing the services hinders the full purpose of God for a local Church. I trust that this study will enhance the effective and effectual working of Men in the body ministries of the local church.

The Church is a local and universal Body of Born Again & Spirit-filled believers (i.e. called out people) located in a place of worship, having a shepherd (an overseer).

DISCUSSION (Study Analysis)

1) The Church Defined:

a) Is a called out people of God. 1Peter 2:5, 9; Colossians 1:13; Ephesians 2:1

b) A local church (A community of believers, irrespective of sex, colour or race) geographically located in a place of worship. Revelation 2:1; 1Thessalonians 1:1; Acts 8:1.

c) The Body of Christ (The universal church). Colossians 1:18; Ephesians 1:22-23

d) A building (A place of worship)

2) Origin of church:

  1. The vision of the church was born by Christ before his death – Matthew 16:18
  2. The Beginning of the New Testament Church – Acts 2:1-3, 41 (Born on the day of Pentecost).

3) Our Conduct towards the Church: Acts 20:17, 28 (17-38)

It is one thing to belong to the Church, it is another thing to remain or abide inside. Hence our conduct makes us a living epistles of God’s WORD.

1 Timothy 3:12-15; Titus 1:5

  1. Take heed to ourselves and to the flocks
  2. Services should be rather render with fear & reverences. Philippians 2:12

4) Who then is man: Proverbs 20:6

  1. Dictionary – An Adult Human Male
  2. Spiritually:

a)  The called men, matured folks, grown up in the Lord, not necessary in age (though valuable) but in experience with God.

b)  Biblically matured folks with godly experience (i.e. grows up in the Lord)

Note: Differences in classification – A young man, an elderly man, an old Man

5) Men’s Characteristics and Role in the Affairs of the Church:

a)  God does call Men not child – Hebrews 5:1, Acts 6:3

b)  Men prays – Luke 18:1 – the Church was born by prayers and men ought always to pray and not to faint – Isaiah 40:28-31

c)  They are available for the work of God in their local church according to the directives of the leadership – Acts 6:1-7

d)  They go for solid food and not milk. Hebrews 5:13-14; Hebrews 6:1

e)  They are recipient of God’s spiritual gift and they use this gift as the Spirit will to the glory of God. Acts 19:2, 7, 6; 1 Peter 4:11; 1 Corinthians 12:11; Ephesians 4:11

f)   They are to serve as a model in character and in Spirit, in the Church -2 Corinthians 3:2-3

g)  They are instrument for effective administration and sponsorship in the Church – Acts 6:1-7

h)  Men should be lifters and not breakers to the pastorate and the Church at large – Exodus 17:11-13

i)   Men don’t RETIRE but REFIRE. Hebrew 10:35-39; 2 Timothy 2:1-5

6) Non-Essentials/Hindrances against Men’s Role in the Church:

a) Self-egotism – 1 Peter 5:6; James 4:10; Luke. 12:15-21

b) Excuses – Luke 14:16-24

c) Irrelevances – Romans 14:1, James 3:14, 16; Philippians 1:15-18

d) Destruction criticism and sectionalism – 1 Corinthians 12:25

Note: Destructive criticism gives birth to sectionalism – Galatians 3:28-29

e) Division (schism) and offences – 1 Corinthians 12:25

f) Uncontrollable use of tongue – James 3:1.

g) Uncontrollable wrath – James 1:20; Ephesians 4:26.
