‘Church’ Not Mere Building

 

Ephesians 5:23-24 Colossians 1:18

The church is the assembly of the ‘Saints’. The gathering of people who believes in Christ, and Christ alone! That’s why we as Christians are addressed as Believers.. Believers of the true undiluted words of the gospel. 

So therefore; the Church is an entity not a thing/not a building/not the instrument or equipments.. It is a ‘BODY’ hence the BODY OF CHRIST. The fact is, While Christ is the head of the Church, the Church is His body, We Believers are the part the one whole body of Christ, and He will build His Church and prevent the gates of Hell from prevailing.

The identity of the Church is hidden in Christ! Christ is then builder of the Church! Christ is the Founder amen originator.  

   But today, a lot of people get it wrong with the perspective of what the Church really is, just like folks in the past misunderstood the Church too (Matthew 16:13-18). 

The Church was founded on the platform orb the revelation of Christ, So Dear Believer, It is just not the sweet instruments, not only the nicely constructed building or the location.. It is YOU.. It You flowing with the very agenda of the concept of the ‘Church’, which is: Believing, the true words of the gospel, Discipleship and Discipling, Exhibiting greatness, Living as Light, Exercising your true identity in Christ, and finally fulfilling the words ‘... And the gates of Hell shall not prevail’

Displaying Wisdom

 Matthew 7:24

Reading through this content, please take note that the topic "Displaying Wisdom" is beyond just showcasing the wisdom you have, but this is to invoke into your style of living a great weapon for Divine Wisdom. To start with, please consider Matthew 7:24 carefully... and then mediate in comparison with the topic. This content is not pointing solely on the saying that Spiritual knowledge is the only knowledge Christians can acquire, Believers can acquire knowledge in different fields; medicine, art, tech, culture (in fact, Wisdom is good for your health👌😄).

   This, is to bring to you the very essence of living a life... solely dependent on the Words of God, for Wisdom to Live triumphantly! One great fact about this 'Wisdom' is that, Wisdom is the ability to adapt to Change. Change here does not specially mean change like from bad to evil or vice versa, or maybe change as in great times to dull moments or whatever... Change here👉 is actually the constant phenomenon, that sometimes happen without our consent or whether we want it or not, and it keeps us in check; HOW..: changes keeps our lives interesting, when we live, fight, overcome, get promoted, face new challenges, get over them and get promoted...and on and on. But in all the stages mentioned above, You need just more than wisdom, But Wisdom acquired from the words of God.

    God affirmatively pronounces that life will not be a smooth track, but the toughness will not overcome us (John 16:33), But how can that be, if not for the provisions of the readily available source that we have: GOD'S WORDS

     

      One thing that will keep you evergreen, a surety for wins and wins on all your 'change' is the Wisdom that you acquire from God's words, and display in your living. Wisdom that's not utilized, is no wisdom.In  Matthew 7:24-27 the 'Wise' is He that puts the words of God into practice...

   Wisdom acquired from God's words do not necessarily have to please men, they may even antagonize it, they may not see from the perspective of what you see... But don't relent or get discouraged, as your Wisdom will pay off while people will see glory of God greatly in you. You wouldn't need to bother too much about the 'change' coming ahead, just when you have yourself built on the solid rock of God's word and timely display of wisdom. You just smile wide, because the Wisdom in Word is available and sufficient, whatever the 'change'

   Apply God's Word... Display Wisdom (not in pride, but to showcase the Life, Truth and Spirit in God's Word)

  Also compare: Acts 20:32, Proverbs 4:7, II Timothy 2:15, Galatians 4:1, Psalms 119:105.

Utilizing God's-Own Currency

 

    This content focuses more on boasting the passion, zeal: To make proper use of every of God's own currency in your capacity.

 Also to draw a little focus on the important fact that every individual has got a purpose as to which His/her creation or birth is attached to... Likewise, how crucial it is to find out that very purpose and to 'Work and Run' with it. But right now, this content is a CALL to UTILIZE every single one of GOD'S owned CURRENCY.  Currency here, means the very gifts and talents that God has endowed every individual with... Waoooww; you are getting introduced to another word for 'gifts and talents'. 

   This can never be over-emphasized, and that is: the need for understanding about following through the standards of God, towards pleasing Him...by utilizing the very gifts, talents, resources He has given to us! And for a god understanding we have all standards and understandings about guidelines for utilization of these currencies in the books of the Bible.. Matthew 25:14-30, I Corinthians 12:-12, I Corinthians 14:1-10

Please Understand These:

... God's own currencies are the gifts, talents He has endowed us with; (Matthew 25:1). Consider how it would look like, If God had actually sent us all down to planet earth without nothing... No gift, no talent, imagine what the world would have looked like right now. Just as the the Master in Matthew 25:1 equipped His servants, gave them resources and something to live for, and work with... Same way, God has endowed, equipped every living creature with something valuable.

.... MOST IMPORTANTLY: Use/Utilize that every currency you have right now. it is this simple: somebody has given you a gift, acknowledge it, then go ahead making use of it properly to in turn benefit that person and even uplift your own life to a great point. Don't look at what currency someone else has on the place, do not let that stop you from using what you have to the peak... Who knows, your own currency might outshine that of others. "The more adequate usage, the more incredible increase". Just whatever you find in your hands, Use it for God alone... work not to please men or yourself... Don't use it to gain attention... Just use it properly knowing that if you don't: It will be taken away, giving to someone else, replacement with another available vessel. GOD NEEDS YOU! HE NEEDS YOU TO USE HIS INVESTMENTS! Don't waste away...
