BE BOLD AND
BE COURAGEOUS: BE NOT DISMAYED.
Nobody can
fulfill his or her God-given assignment without some level of boldness, courage
and perseverance, none whosoever. For, fear, discouragement and doubt, are some
of the greatest hindrances to our pursuit of our divine callings on earth, And
satan knows this very well, and is always ready to exploit them whenever
opportunity calls.
And all
these virtues are by-products of faith, the God kind of faith.
Therefore,
our all-knowing God made sure He endowed His people with a measure of His kind
of faith, a level of His faith sufficient for all things, all things that
pertains to life and to godliness. But many in His kingdom are either ignorant
of this provision, or are shy to apply it, or, are so full of themselves that
they chose to go it on their own.
Walking By Faith
Whenever the need arises, our faith
in God activates in us godly boldness, courage, determination, perseverance,
diligence and such like character. And without this faith, we will always walk
and end up as victims, both in life and even in ministry.
And every
man or woman who lived and pleased God till the end manifested this kind of
faith. Moses did, so also Joshua. Some of the Judges of Israel wrought exploits
through faith. Even Prophet Samuel guided Israel through her most turbulent
years of nationhood, exploiting the depths of faith in God.
Shall we
even speak of the prophets and the apostles of old? Most of them challenged and
overcame the evils of their days walking in faith.
And without
this faith, no living can please God? For without faith, none can even believe
that God is, not to speak of recognizing Him a Rewarder of all that diligently
seek Him.
God Demands Fearlessness, Boldness
and Courage.
One of the highest ways to honor and
please God, is to walk in life fearless, bold and courageous, banking entirely
on His abiding presence, protection and preservation.
Today, therefore,
after a time of absence from these platforms, the same God, has sent me, to
encourage you: to be strong, to be courageous, to be bold - not
to relent, nor faint, not to lose hope; but to continue to do, and to speak,
and to preach His will: in season and out of season - in spite of satan, in spite of false
brethren, in spite the world, in spite of enemies of righteousness.
Therefore,
in the name of the everlasting Father, the Father of all spirits, the Creator
of the ends of the earth, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, I charge you:
you that do and preach the truth of this gospel, you that fear the Lord and
tremble at His word, you that follow after righteousness, you that obey the
commandments of the Lord: to continue,
to preserver, to press on: knowing this very thing, that the days of our
redemption are nearer than when we first believed.
Don’t Be Discouraged
They may call you names, but don’t worry,
they also did against our Master Jesus Christ. They may even accuse you of
preaching religion, or of preaching the law; but press on, knowing this very
thing, that satan does not easily release his prisoners.
Many, even
in the very body of Christ, are age long captives of satan, and only a
determined, aggressive and vehement push against satan can get them released. They
may even cease to help you financially, or cast you out into the cold, or cause
you to be lonely and comfortless. Yet the charge from Father of all spirits
today, is this, that, in spite of all these cruelties, you must continue, you
must not relent: you must press on, and not murmuring or complaining.
God is always
with the truly righteous, no matter what they are passing through by reason of
this gospel. And He will never leave nor forsake them, never.
There Shall Be No Excuses
Let me remind all, who, out of fear,
or by reason of whatsoever, refuse to continue in the truth of this gospel;
that the wrath of Father is reserved for them, except they repent. He will
require from your very hands, the blood of all the folks who went down to the
pit because you refused to tell them the truth. Yes, He will.
There shall
be no excuses, whatsoever.
Are you
afraid of death? Wel,l the truth is that you will die one day, and after that,
a certain fearful judgment. Are you afraid of imprisonment? Well, if you avoid
human prison, be ready to become a prisoner of satan. Are you afraid of losing
your marriage? Well, the Bible says that a day shall come that they that are
married will be as if they are not. Is your fear that of losing your so-called
means of livelihood? Then you must be reminded that man shall not live by bread
alone.
Whatsoever
we lose in this life for the sake of this gospel is not worth ever having at
all.
Whatever is
it that hinders you from living the truth of this gospel and from preaching it,
that very thing will eventually lead you to where you never expected to be in
life, and at the end, to shame and eternal damnation.
Rise Up And Do The Will Of God
Rise up today, and cast away that
evil garment of fear, that demonic garment of discouragement, that satanic
garment of inferiority complex, that worldly garment of fear of loss of respect
and of reputation. That respect and that reputation you command outside Christ
are as valuable as dung.
Are you
afraid of folks tagging you as proud? Let me remind you, that satan is always
the first to call people of God proud; yet he is the author of pride.
Yes, they
will claim that you are proud, and even arrogant; but not because you are so in
the sight of Father; but because they have classified you, because they have
placed you where you should belong, and what must be heard from you. Any
attempt by you to speak up, or stand up for the truth will be met with those
loud satanic choruses of proud, proud, and proud!
Yet I charge
you to remain undaunted, focused and diligent in your pursuit of godliness. Cast
aside those voices of satanic blackmail and possess your possessions in Christ.
Do not give
place to enemies of God, to false brethren: resist men and women who have
formed their own personal, sensual and perverse ideas of Who God is and how He
must be served.
Great News
Today, the everlasting Father, has
opened a new door, and effectual, unto you: unto you that thirst after
righteousness, unto you that relentlessly spread the gospel of peace, unto you
that preach the truth of this gospel, unto you that love Christ and His
appearing, unto you that do and encourage those that also do the will of God,
unto you that help and succor the people of God. And He has done so even in the
midst of many adversaries. Yes, but He will also cause you to prevail.
Step out
today in godly boldness and courage, and fulfill your days and your ministry,
and possess the gates of the enemies of righteousness. Pray for boldness even
as the Apostles prayed in Acts of the Apostles, 4: 23-31. I bet you, there
shall be a shaking in the things that pertain to you and to your ministry.
