Nothing makes or fashions hustlers out of a generation of men, like money. Nothing keeps believers – long in carnality – like money and what money can do (Lk. 18:18-25).
The world has said, “time is money”, but the gospel is still saying “time is life”! May the Faith in Christ Jesus become our soul’s currency for living, and may money mean to us what it meant to our Lord Jesus, Amen.
The gospel of Christ empowers believers to live according to a life that is higher than corruption and superior to the wisdom driving this world; a life that is strictly inspired by things above, things beyond the hearing of the ears and the sight of natural eyes. If we would inherit the same of crown of righteousness that Paul made reference to in 2Tim. 4:8, then we would have to walk by the same spirit of faith like he did, endure the reproaches that accompanies Christ’s riches and appreciate in our inward (soul) state.
We are therefore at the mercy of seeking freedom in God’s way, with God’s resources, and at God’s time. Going forward, a genuine wind of change that’s governed by the Gospel of Christ (God’s Power) would be visiting the church (saints) like never before.
There are POWERS FROM GOD and there is THE DIVINE POWER OF GOD, but extremely few believers till date have understood the difference between both, and this remains key to attaining our inheritance in God. The church needs to migrate from ministrations that introduce the gospel to the core aspect of the gospel where the light of Christ’s Faith and God’s Love must be learnt.
The singular motive of the Gospel of Christ is to ultimately grant believers access to partake of the Righteousness of God, the Peace of God and the Joy of the Lord. May we be foolish enough before the world to embrace the actual gospel of Christ while it is available to us, amen.
It may interest you to know that the first owner and the first person to preach the gospel was God (Rom. 1:1), and his first audience was Adam (Gen. 2:16-17). Believers, ministers, you and I need to learn the core aspects of Gospel of God and this curriculum starts when the God succeeds in weaning us (Isa. 28:9) from the preeminent church meals.
The actual Gospel of Christ unveils God through teachings that reveal Christ (Rom. 16:25b/Eph. 3:3-4) that helps believers in their journey back to The Father (Jn. 13:3)! As churches begin to open their doors to it, the present emphasis on various subjects would change and God’s Glorious/Eternal Power would be unlocked and sons (matured saints) would be born.
The Gospel was initially the Gospel of God (Rom. 1:1). It was God’s Treasured Possession before heaven, earth or man was created.
