The Month of 'Take Your Place Pt 3' - Ephesians 5:1-33

“Now may the Lord move your hearts into a greater understanding of God’s pure love for you and into Christ’s steadfast endurance, or the faithful endurance of all things for Christ” (2 Thessalonians 3:5 TPT)

In this unusually third part of our theme “Take Your Place – The Awakening”, we are called for greater openness in allowing the Lord God to lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God. This is indeed the celebration of the birth of Jesus as God’s fulfilment of His eternal plan and covenant as a loving Father to humanity.

Therefore, I urge you to rekindle your imagination of the pure love of God and allow Him to use you as truly pure expression of His love to humanity, daily. So now, take your place and see this great thing which the Lord will do before your eyes – 1 Samuel 12:16.

Dearly beloved brethren do not ever limit your joy or fail to rejoice in the wonderful experience of knowing our Lord Jesus. I will continue to repeat this until we get it – for it is for our protection. For we have already experienced heart- circumcision and we worship God is the power and freedom of the Holy Spirit, not in laws and religious duties, we are those who boast in what Jesus Christ has done and not in what we can accomplish in our own strength.

The love and peace of God are gifts which money cannot buy therefore cherish them with all your heart and let your lives be a daily expression of the Lord’s great goodness. Colossians 3:15 says, let the peace of Christ (the inner calm of the one who daily walks with Him) be the controlling factor in your hearts and always be thankful.

This is the time of no more limitations in Christ, in the spirit and in the full benefits of the gospel promises – 2 Cor 1:20.

I pray for someone here and under the sound of my voice, in 1 Corinthians 15:24-25 to end other rulership, authority, and power in our lives before handing the kingdom to Father God. Let this be the final stage of your deliverance not the first. Jesus is destined to reign as King until all hostility (enemies, oppression, evil, wickedness) has been subdued and placed under His feet, so shall it be in your life daily. Amen.

In conclusion, we will not kill love and peace for the Lord Yahweh is always faithful (1 Cor 1:9; Isaiah 49:7; 1John 1:9) to place us on a firm foundation and guard us from the evil one. So let us give full expression of God’s love and peace through our own daily living by the resurrection power of God enabling us.

Now, may the Lord Himself, the Lord of Peace, pour into you His peace in every circumstance and in every possible way. The Lord’s tangible presence be with you all – amen.

Happy new month and best month of 2022. May surprise follow surprise in your lives.I look forward to hearing your testimonies.

Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year in advance to all!
