RIGHTEOUSNESS CONSCIOUSNESS GIVES PEACE


Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi 
 Isa 32:17-18 KJV “And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance forever. And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;” 1 Cor 15:34 AMP “ Awake [from your drunken stupor and return] to sober sense and your right minds, and sin no more. For some of you have not the knowledge of God [you are utterly and willfully and disgracefully ignorant, and continue to be so, lacking the sense of God's presence and all true knowledge of Him]…” The righteousness of God is not devoid of common sense. God has given every one the intuitive ability to know right from wrong without being told, therefore, it is possible to live a life of peace, stability, quietness and assurance forever, these are the effect of practicing the righteousness by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.             
        Unrighteousness requires embracing illogical theology, such as the demands by religion, an example of these beliefs is that which says God dwells in a particular church or a preacher being more anointed than others and the anointing of the Holy Ghost or God’s favour existing in sizes. Another is the belief that God has to be provoked with an offering before He can help a person and certain blessings occur at certain days of the year based on human religious observations. These ideas and others like them grossly misrepresent God’s love for mankind and are against common sense; believing in this is a confirmation of one’s ignorance of God and a lack of sensitivity to His Spirit in us.      
      These kinds of teachings leads to instability and exposes a person to being defrauded and traumatized as commonly witnessed in most underdeveloped countries . It results in disgrace. Marriages and businesses are being destroyed by those who promote these theology . The scripture debunks these evil ideas Ephesians 1:3 says ” All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.” Common sense says if we are blessed with every blessing ,why do I need to give money to a preacher to provoke God for a blessing ? We should rather be thanking God for our blessings instead of asking for what has already been given us . God is not trying to bless you , He has already blessed you ; ask for wisdom on how to harness the potentials in you . Start reading more , attend teaching sessions, make wise friends , walk in love . Another scripture that debunks these theology is Colossians 1:12-14NLT “always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light. For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son” ( John 1 our understanding of this scripture puts an end to endless ‘deliverance sessions’ and money spent to receive deliverance .It says you are qualified for the good life and God isn’t trying to deliver the born again Christian from Satan and demons , he or she is already delivered: neither is your womb, babies ,marriage ,money etc in a marine kingdom under an imaginary rock that only the prophet or apostle can see but you are presently in God’s kingdom ruled by Christ (the word) .Awaken to your deliverance by daily declaring “ I thank God I am delivered from the power of darkness and dwell in God’s kingdom free from curses and blessed with all the blessings in the kingdom “ This is how you awaken to righteousness in Jesus Christ . Jesus Christ is the righteousness of God , He is the word of God and dwells in us and we in Him , therefore , to awake to righteousness requires an awareness of the truth of scriptures. Prayer : Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive grace for overwhelming peace and stability in Jesus name. +2348035536911, +2348098536911 email;michaelbensonajayi@gmail.com pics credit: lowcarbsconversation.com/pixabay

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord....

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative...
