Also, 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“.
Here Is The Wisdom For Today For The Quest Above!
A Colourful and thriving life is gracious, graceful and lovely, more so, when God’s intent for your life is to be whole, complete and full in all that pertains to life and godliness, for which Christ came to pay the ransom for our WHOLESOME REDEMPTION. The knowing and understanding of this God’s concept of grace for us is our RIGHTEOUSNESS in Him by Christ Jesus, which enable and make us to ride steadily and readily to enact our God given plans, purposes and pursuits to succeed, triumph, win and overcome and be a victor in life and godliness no matter where and when and how. And that makes colourful and thriving life accessible and dignified, and the knowing and understanding that the greater one lives in you.
I pray you Blessed! Be empowered to succeed, triumph and be victorious and in dominion as you adhered to ensure the holy writ purpose of God about you and I, as in this month AUGUST theme – AUGUST YOUR LIFE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS! “The PATH To Live A DIGNIFIED Life” while awaiting His return. Amen!
In a nut shell, the theme EDITION could be characterised but not limited into this headings:
** Receive Addition By God’s Righteousness – The Righteousness Which Is Of FAITH In Christ Jesus – Not Man’s Ordinance, Oblation, Creed And Customised Tradition of Bondage!
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33
“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 …For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)” Romans 10:1-6.
** In The Kingdom, Kings Rule & Reign – But Thrones Are Established By Righteousness! To August – Reign & Rule – In Life As The REDEEMED Royal Priesthood That’s Made King & Priest Unto God – You Need To Be Established In The Righteousness Of God In Christ Jesus. Amen!
“It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness” Proverbs 16:12.
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the …seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 and hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth” Revelation 5:9-10.
“Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ . . . 9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light“ 1 Peter 2:5, 9.
** The Work & Effect To AUGUST Your Life In Righteousness – PEACE, QUIETNESS & ASSURANCE Forever! Righteousness – the Kingdom streamline to AUGUST life, is the right of grace to stand upright in faith before Father God without fear, guilt, shame and to be undaunted by the accuser of the brethren, the devil.
The Scriptures indicates that the kingdom of God is not just food, drink and pleasures only, but Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy Ghost. When we seek the …kingdom of God firstly, and His righteousness, which is, His will, commanded deed and ways of doing & living life, ALL other things – food, drink, pleasures and more will be added unto us accordingly..
Righteousness works, promotes and enhances PEACE with God, self and others. PEACE – which means concord, agreement, harmony and a mind free from fears and agitating passions and moral conflicts. The resultant of righteousness is innermost quietness or resolve, assurance and exaltation. I pray that as you resolve for righteousness, may you experience the work and effect of the grace of God in this regard.
“And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever” Isaiah 32:17.
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33.
“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost” Romans 14:17.
“And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace” James 3:18.
** Awaits You Is The CROWN of Righteousness – By The Righteous Judge: August Your Life To Earn It – Strive Righteously!
It’s awesome, gracious and graceful to stand before Father God’s presence, day by day until final day, without the sense of guilt, or inferiority or sin consciousness. That is to be a crown of the believer’s life. There’s A CROWN of righteousness laid up and awaiting ALL who August their life in righteousness by – fighting the good fight of righteousness, finishing the good course of righteousness and keeping the faith of righteousness while on this side of the heavens as Apostle Paul affirmed to Received.
“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing” 2 Timothy 4:7-8.
“Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. 3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. 6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits” 2 Timothy 2:1-6.
** To Achieve Greatness With God’s Grace For Divine Favour: It’s The Grace That Reigns And Works Through The Righteousness of God In Christ Jesus – Nothing More, Nothing Less! There You Reign In Grace With Outpouring Favour of God. Anything otherwise is man’s oblation, creed, ordinance and traditions that leads to bondage at the end – which many are trapped inside today!
“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.) . . .21 that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” Romans 5:17, 21.
** The Path To August A Dignified Life – It’s In God’s Presence: The Righteousness of God In Christ Jesus! It exalts, promotes, illuminates more and more, brighter and brighter until the dawn of the complete work of grace is perfected in us. For we saved, we are been save, and we shall be save.
“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
“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people“ Proverbs 14:34.
** Let Your Path & Steps Be Ordered In Righteousness By The Lord: There You Can August Your Life With Light & Will Not Beg For Bread!
“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” Proverbs 4:18.
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand. 25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread” Psalms 37:23-25.
** Your Fulness In God Is In Christ Jesus, and He’s The Head And Above ALL Power & Authority In The Universe!
“For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power“ Colossians 2:9-10.
** You Are Complete And Completely Made Whole: spirit, soul & body, In Christ Jesus – Don’t Live or Think or Believe For Less Until Christ Returns!
“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23.
** Communicate Your Faith In Order To Appropriate Your Being Complete – Whole And Perfected – In Christ. This You Can Do By The Acknowledging of Every Good Thing Done In You, Being Done In & Through You In Christ Jesus! Amen.
“That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 6.
** Don’t Be Mistaken By Any For Whatsoever – You Are Complete & Made Righteous In Christ Jesus In God! That Settles It!
“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31.
“For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; 2 that their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; 3 in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words . . . And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power” Colossians 2:1-4, 10.
Further Scriptural Reading To This Theme:
“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to ever…y one that believeth. 5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) 7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Romans 10:1-13.

AUGUST 2012 THEME
Shalom & Kingdom greetings in the precious name of our Lord & Saviour King – Lord Jesus Christ, Amen. With awesome privilege, I gladly welcome all visitors and existing browsers into this Month of August 2012, which is THEMED: Arise & Shine! “Achievers Act To August A Difference In Life & Godliness“
The Month of August is the eight month of the year. It thus signifies a new beginning. And to august means to dignify and imposing, distinguish and exalt; to be venerable, to inspire respect and admiration; to be illustrious and more.
Hence, this month of August is your month to arise and shine making a difference. Here are some of the scriptures for the theme:
Isaiah 60:1 “Arise [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you—rise to a new life]! Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you!” (Amplified).
Proverbs 24:15-16 “Don’t interfere with good people’s lives; don’t try to get the best of them. No matter how many times you trip them up, God-loyal people don’t stay down long; Soon they’re up on their feet, while the wicked end up flat on their faces.” (The Message Bible)
Psalms 34:19 “Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.“ (KJV)
Psalms 37:23-24 “The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step]. 24 Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him.“(Amplified).
Micah 7:8-10 “Don’t, enemy, crow over me. I’m down, but I’m not out. I’m sitting in the dark right now, but God is my light. I can take God’s punishing rage. I deserve it—I sinned. But it’s not forever. He’s on my side and is going to get me out of this. He’ll turn on the lights and show me his ways. I’ll see the whole picture and how right he is. And my enemy will see it, too, and be discredited—yes, disgraced! This enemy who kept taunting, “So where is this God of yours?” I’m going to see it with these, my own eyes— my enemy disgraced, trash in the gutter. “ (The Message Bible)
There is no room to be at ease in Zion and achieve an illustrious life and godliness, because it’s very expensive to be at ease in the midst of divine opportunities and surprises (Amos 6:1-3; 2 Samuel 11). I do know that a man’s ignorance is his own mountain and the knowledge of the truth will set him free. Hence I am leaving you with the undermentioned scriptures to read, in this AFD AUGUST 2012 Edition for your perusal and as a guide of grace to give you a line of food for thought indicating how the theme of the month will be approach. I therefore commend you to take time to ponder and meditate on them in prayers (Acts 20:32).
Mark 2:1-12 “And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2 And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. 6 But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, 7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? 8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? 10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,) 11 I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. 12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.”
However, this month theme will be expanded in course of the SERVICES & TIMES in all meetings through the Month/year 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 revitalizes and rejuvenate 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 Moulding, Life Transformation, Dignity Restoration and Kingdom Faith Establishment, Community Social Enrichment and Development and Readily Prepared, Awaiting The Lord’s Return.
Until then, have an amazing, majestic and awesome Month to “Arise & Shine” in AUGUST 2012.
Amazing Grace,
Pst Chukie.
