AFD JUNE 2017 THEME
GREETINGS:
Shalom & Kingdom greetings in the precious and awesome name of our gracious, graceful and redeemer King, Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ, Amen. My wife Faith and I would like to welcome you again to the dawn of this New month JUNE 2017 in the LORD’S Year 2017 as He crown your life and year with POSSIBIBLITIES. We also say welcome to the new and existing recipients of the Monthly TEACHING Newsletter publications of the ‘Achievers’ FAITH Digest’ Year 2017.
As the sixth Month of Year 2017 Georgian Calendar, it could be considered as our month of REFLECTION, wherein SIX speaks as the day man was created and the number of days man was discharged to work in a week of seven days. By this knowledge and understanding, I pray that as you incline to read and hear God’s sayings, by reflection and stock taking in order to OCCUPY TILL I COME – Earthly Useful & Heavenly Minded, which is Christ Jesus mandate to us ALL; and as a results of God’s first mandate to man in human creation, that the enabling grace of our God will be minister to your well being – spirit, soul and body – wholly, in Jesus precious Name, Amen (1 Thessalonians 5:23/Hebrews 4:12-13); and even as it’s written in the Scriptures of Genesis 1:26-28 – “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth“.
Therefore, in the line with the creation mandate above, and now our REDEEMER Christ mandate, this Month JUNE of the AFD is themed: The month of OCCUPY TILL I COME! A month of “Being Earthy Useful While Heavenly Minded”.
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“.
Further Scriptural Reading To This Theme:
Luke 19:11-27 “And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. 12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us. 15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds. 17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities. 18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds. 19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities. 20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 for I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. 22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23 wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury? 24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds. 25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.) 26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him. 27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me“.
Psalms 24:1 “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein“
Psalms 8:4-8 “what is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? 5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. 6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: 7 all sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; 8 the fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas“.
Isaiah 45:11-13 “Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. 12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. 13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the Lord of hosts“.
Psalms 115:16-18 “The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the earth hath he given to the children of men. 17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence. 18 But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord“.
2 Corinthians 5:17-21 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him“.
However, this Month JUNE 2017 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”.
I gladly welcome you, your friends and family to be with us in Fellowship and Worship. I promise you that you can never be the same again as you ponder over the truth of these unadulterated, inspiring, revealing and empowering living word of God. I pray that God revitalize and rejuvenates you and all that is about you, so that you may become the very best of which God has created you to be in your daily journey of Destiny Molding, Life Transformation, Dignity Restoration and Kingdom Faith Establishment, Community Social Cohesion and Enrichment and Development, Success Empowerment & Fulfillment, Grace Impartation and more, while awaiting the Lord’s Return.
Until then, have a crown year 2017 of POSSIBILITIES “A year to “Thrive & Live With Purpose & Fulfilment”.

Therefore, in the line with the creation mandate above, and now our REDEEMER Christ mandate, this Month JUNE of the AFD is themed: The month of OCCUPY TILL I COME! A month of “Being Earthy Useful While Heavenly Minded”.
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“.
Do You Wants To OCCUPY TILL I COME as Mandated of Christ Jesus? That Is:
– To Be Earthly Useful & Heavenly Minded?
– To Be A More Than Conquerors?
– To Succeed, Triumph, Be Victorious & In Dominion?
– To Thrive & Be Colourful, Instead of Survive or Survival?
– And Much More?
Here Is The Wisdom For Today For The Quest Above!
A Colourful and thriving life is gracious, graceful and lovely, but it’s not a give away, hence it’s not cheap and not for the lazy, sluggard and idlers; hence there’s the need to OCCUPY TILL I COME as mandated by Christ Jesus with your God’s given basic RESOURCE – Time, Effort & Finance; that is, if you earnestly wants to endorse your Plans, Purposes & Pursuits meaningfully.
The knowing that ‘You are of God’, “loved of God” makes you steadily and readily able to succeed, triumph, win and overcome and be a victor in life and godliness. And that makes colourful and thriving life accessible, knowing the greater one lives in you also.
Therefore, it’s imperative to let your Time, Effort & Financial resources count and account for your good. For success is failure turn inside out, which is a result of one respecting the opportunity to diligently and prudently utilised one’s given resources: Time, Effort and Finance. This is also means you can become what you want to be if you walk in wisdom with your God given resource in your day to day plans, purposes and pursuits. It is on this platform that one can ‘OCCUPY TILL I COME’ meaning being Earthly Useful while Heavenly Minded as scriptural mandated; and then become A MORE THAN CONQUERORS, live a COLOURFUL and THRIVING life instead of being a SURVIVAL wanting to go to heaven so quickly do to life challenges which some like to ascertain for self-pity and escape route, I guess.
I pray you Blessed! Be empowered to succeed, triumph, and be victorious and in dominion as you adhered to Christ Mandate to us – ‘OCCUPY TILL I COME’, that is, being Earthly Useful while Heavenly Minded, awaiting His return. Amen!

AFD JUNE 2013 THEME
Romans 5:15-21 “But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. 16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification. 17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. 19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. 20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: 21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.“
2 Corinthians 9:8 “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work“
Philemon 6 “That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.“
2 Corinthians 2:14 “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.“
Titus 2:11-15 “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. 15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.“
Romans 6:1-2 “What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?“
Romans 6:12-16 “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. 15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?“
Romans 5:1-2 “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.“
2 Corinthians 13:14 “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.“
