Better than good greetings, in Jesus’ most colourful name!
May the rest that comes from knowing the Lord Jesus & that causes enlargements with ease answer for you today & always, even in your HEALTH too, in Jesus’ most colourful name!
I bring you the better than good news of the Kingdom.
According to 1 Corinthians 15.58, the Holy Spirit of glory opens our eyes of understanding to the Father’s perception of us, as HIS BELOVED:
1 Corinthians 15.58(Amplified version):
[58]”Therefore, my beloved brethren, be firm (steadfast), immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord [always being superior, excelling, doing more than enough in the service of the Lord], knowing and being continually aware that your labor in the Lord is not futile [it is never wasted or to no purpose]”.
Our Father sees you & I as His BELOVED because He has ACCEPTED US INTO HIS BELOVED IN AS MUCH AS WE ACCEPTED HIS LOVE GIFT – JESUS THE CHRIST – AS OUR SAVIOUR, LORD & ALL IN ALL – Ephesians 1.6:
“To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved”.
To maximise & optimise the benefits of your salvation with blessings & impacts, it is very essential for you to accept the truth of Scriptures, see yourself in the light of the New Testament redeemed child of God & start GROWING in Jesus in ALL ASPECTS by RIGHTLY DIVIDING(CORRECTLY INTERPRETING, DEALING STRAIGHTFORWARD WITH) THE WORD OF TRUTH & EATING THE WORD TO LIVE AS YOU EXERCISE YOURSELF UNTO GODLINESS, OUR FATHER’S NATURE, HIS LIFESTYLE – 2 Timothy 2.15; Matthew 4.4; & 1 Timothy 4.8:
2 Timothy 2.15:
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”.
2 Timothy 2.15(Weymouth’s translation): “Earnestly seek to commend yourself to God as a servant who, because of his straightforward dealing with the word of truth, has no reason to feel any shame”.
2 Timothy 2.15(Amplified version): [15]”Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth”.
Matthew 4.4:
“But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God”.
1 Timothy 4.8(Amplified version):
[8] “For physical training is of some value (useful for a little), but godliness (spiritual training) is useful and of value in everything and in every way, for it holds promise for the present life and also for the life which is to come”.
1 Timothy 4.8(Weymouth New Testament translation):
4:8 “Train yourself in godliness. Exercise for the body is not useless, but godliness is useful in every respect, possessing, as it does, the promise of Life now and of the Life which is soon coming”.
As we see earlier in 1 Corinthians 15.58, because we’re the Father’s beloved, everything that we do, & which we should do, in line with His will, with the right motive & attitude of LOVE, is guaranteed with GAINS(in this PRESENT WORLD & the world to come), our services & labour then aren’t in vain:
1 Corinthians 15.58(Amplified version):
[58]”Therefore, my beloved brethren, be firm (steadfast), immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord [always being superior, excelling, doing more than enough in the service of the Lord], knowing and being continually aware that your labor in the Lord is not futile [it is never wasted or to no purpose]”.
You must therefore constantly, consciously & deliberately take GRACE not to allow anything to hinder your LOVE WALK & LOVE WORK – Hebrews 12.28:
“Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear”:
The believer’s Christ Life without His Love Nature makes him worthless, according to 1 Corinthians 13.2(Amplified version):
[2]”And if I have prophetic powers (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), and understand all the secret truths and mysteries and possess all knowledge, and if I have [sufficient] faith so that I can remove mountains, but have not love (God’s love in me) I am nothing (a useless nobody)”.
I don’t think I or any other Christian would like to be “a USELESS NOBODY”.
Maybe there could be hope for a useless SOMEBODY but it seems hope is lost, hope is no longer alive for a useless nobody.
The Weymouth translation actually nailed it on the head – 1 Corinthians 13.2:
13.2 “If I possess the gift of prophecy and am versed in all mysteries and all knowledge, and have such absolute faith that I can remove mountains, but am destitute of Love, I am nothing”.(Weymouth’s New Testament translation)
I don’t equally think that any believer in Christ Jesus would want to be NOTHING in life, certainly, I don’t want to be NOTHING but the person who Jesus paid the PRICE OF HIS BLOOD TO BE, & I know that’s who you too want to be – THE BETTER THAN GOOD CHRISTIAN CHILD OF GOD – Hebrews 6.9; Revelation 5.12:
“But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak”.
Revelation 5.12:
[12]”Saying in a loud voice, Deserving is the Lamb, Who was sacrificed, to receive all the power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and majesty (glory, splendor) and blessing”!
These are the summary of the blessings (THE PROMISES OF SCRIPTURES FROM GENESIS TO REVELATION) which our salvation in Christ offers, even in this present life, too, as we keep up our FAITH ALIVE IN HIS LOVE – Galatians 5.6(Weymouth’s translation):
5:6 “For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any importance; but only faith working through love”.
To be a useless nobody or nothing in life by not LIVING IN LOVE means the person is dead – 1 John 3.14(Weymouth’s translation):
“As for us, we know that we have already passed out of death into Life–because we love our brother men. He who is destitute of love continues dead”…, & the dead does not need HEALTH again but brethren, Christ gave us LIFE, THE FATHER’S LIFE which no sickness, plagues or any kind of targeted suffering can corrupt, NEVER! John 17.2-3; 1 John 5.11-13:
[2]”[Just as] You have granted Him power and authority over all flesh (all humankind), [now glorify Him] so that He may give eternal life to all whom You have given Him”.
[3]”And this is eternal life: [it means] to know (to perceive, recognize, become acquainted with, and understand) You, the only true and real God, and [likewise] to know Him, Jesus [as the] Christ (the Anointed One, the Messiah), Whom You have sent”.
1 John 5:11-13(Amplified version):
[11]”And this is that testimony (that evidence): God gave us eternal life, and this life is in His Son”.
[12]”He who possesses the Son has that life; he who does not possess the Son of God does not have that life”.
[13]”I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the name of the Son of God [in the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, yes, eternal life”.
1 John 5.11-13(Weymouth’s translation):
5.11 “And that testimony is to the effect that God has given us the Life of the Ages, and that this Life is in His Son”.
5.12 “He who has the Son has the Life: he who has not the Son of God has not the Life”.
5.13 “I write all this to you in order that you who believe in the Son of God may know for certain that you already have the Life of the Ages”.
Dearly beloved, you have the LIFE OF THE AGES just as the Father, Son & the Holy Spirit have!
Don’t be deceived into anything to the contrary!
If you believe any other portion of blessings in the Holy Scriptures, then you should believe these for your BETTER THAN GOOD LIFE!
This is your day to leave the floor & soar in life, where you belong, at the TOP!
I see you RISE UP IN TOTAL HEALTH TO LIVE & DO THE WORKS CHRIST ORDAINED FOR YOU!
START LOVING & START LIVING!
Your better than good testimonies are sure today & always, in Jesus’ most colourful name!
PEACE!
JESUS IS LORD!
