AGENTS OF THE NEW BIRTH

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 3:5 KJV” Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”

When the Lord told Nicodemus that unless he is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God, Nicodemus asked, how can an elderly man enter into his mother’s womb and be born a second time. This saying of such a worldly-wise man, reveals that any man without the spirit of God is stone dead to the reality of the things of the Spirit. We should not be surprised at how they view the children of God and in some occasions persecute the people of God. Dear Saint of God be very considerate with such people, love them, pray for them because they are in a very different world from ours. The Lord was talking about a new kind of birth, but this time through the power of God.

The Lord explained what the agents for this new birth is. He said unless one is born of water and the spirit, he cannot be born again. Some have explained that the water is water baptism. In 1Peter 3:21, apostle Peter explained that it is not the dipping into water that saves us, but the answer of a good conscience towards God. What is the answer of a good conscience? This is referring to the heart responding positively to the word of God. This point agrees with a number of scriptures.

1. 1 Peter 1:23;” Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.”

2. James 1:18 KJV “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.” Once again we see that it is the word of God that gave birth to us.

3.Eph 5:26 KJV “That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,”

This time the scripture shows that, the water refers directly to the word of God.

4 Rom 10:9 KJV 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.

According to the scripture above, we believe in the WORD and confess with our mouth to be saved.

Secondly the scriptures say the Holy Spirit also plays a very, important role in this new birth experience. Titus 3:5 KJV “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost”. The Lord stated that the Holy Spirit is the agent of this new birth. He calls it being born of the Spirit. (John 3 :6)

Dear saints of Gid, we are born into the family of God by believing the good news about our Lord Jesus and then the Holy Spirit also gives us life as a result.

PRAYER

Thank you, heavenly father for giving us your only Son, Jesus Christ, who died on our behalf and took away all my sins. I confess that He is Lord of my life. I receive the regeneration of the Holy Spirit. I thank you Father for this new birth. I am a son of God and God is my father.

THOUGHT:  GOD’S PLAN FOR THIS NEW BIRTH IS TO BRING US INTO ONENESS WITH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD

BORN FROM ABOVE

KEY SCRIPTURE “John 3:3 KJV” Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

After Nicodemus had given his first remarks about Jesus, the Lord who knows the greatest need of man interjected with the following statement.

Joh 3:3 KJV “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. “Most Christians have a very poor understanding about this born-again issue. You are either a victorious or a defeated Christian depending on your right understanding of this born-again experience or either wise.

 Man is a Spirit who has a soul and lives within a body.

1 Thessalonians 5:23. When a man leaves the body, he is described as dead. James 2:26 KJV” For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also”. The spirit is the real you. Our parents gave birth to us with a spirit that came through them. That spirit of man, which we were born with is separated (Rom 5:12) from God and so subjected to the influence of Satan. Eph 2:2&3.It is also spiritually dead.

There is also an evil principle that works within our very spirit. It is called the law of sin and death. Romans 8:2. The product of this law is sin, wickedness, diseases of all kinds, fear anger of rage and an   absence of peace. This is the state of every man who has not made Jesus Lord of his or her life.

Now when one is born again, his or her spirit is completely recreated or regenerated Titus 3:5, Eph 2:10. Titus 3:5 KJV “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;” At the moment one is born again his Spirit which is the real being is completely made anew or become newly created. The bible describes him or her as as a new creation (2 Corinth 5:17). It is created after the resurrected spirit of our Lord Jesus. Eph 1:19,20. This new man is not a renewal of the old, no. The old was buried with Jesus, and the new is THE SAME AS THE RESURRECTED SPIRIT OF JESUS.1 Corinth 6:17,Rom 6:5 KJV For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: (Read Gal 2:20).

Your spirit which is the life force of your being now comes from above. The word born again means born from above. YOU ARE NOW A SAINT. Your spirit has eternal life. John 3:16,1 John 5:11-13. Death has been abolished from your spirit, but life and immortality reigns in you now .2 Timothy 1:9,10.

Being born again is a miracle that takes place in your innermost being. It is not just turning over a new leaf. It is a complete change of the life force of your being. You become a son of God. Your former spirit was a product of your earthly father and mother, now GOD IS NOW YOUR REAL FATHER John 1:13. You can make the power within your spirit come into force through your faith and bold declaration of the mighty power at work in you. SIN, SICKNESSES, DEMONIC CONTROL ARE ALL THINGS OF THE PAST.

THOUGHT:TO BE BORN AGAIN IS THE REAL DEAL.

PUT GOD FIRST.

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 3:2 KJV “The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.”

Many servants of God depend on their own efforts for significance and survival. Some may go to any length to win the favour of men of repute in the society. In our key scripture Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews or a lawyer, rather came to seek Jesus at a very odd hour. He could have come at such an hour, because he wanted to do it under cover or he came at that time, because he could not have been able to get the master, because He would be engaged in the Father’s business. In the night, that is after six o ‘clock when everyone was resting at home, that was when he could get the master. Nicodemus acknowledged that the miracles the Lord performed was a proof of God’s presence with Him. The Lord was not a man of the senses. He therefore put God first in all he did. Matthew 6:33 was the Lord’s secret. It says, seek ye first, the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

Dear servant of God, what is your philosophy for serving Christ? Stop following the world’s way of doing things. Your own understanding would also do you no good (Prov 3:5-7). Do not make the arm of man your strength. The Lord Jesus focused his time on prayer and sharing the word. He pursued these things with every blood in Him. The scripture was duly fulfilled in Him. Every good thing chased Him. This is the better way to do ministry.

 It is not about, pursuing the necessities of this life or even manipulating people, but to diligently seek after God

Pleasing the father God must be the focus of our lives. (1Pe 2:9 KJV). We have been called out of darkness to show the praises of Him who called us into His marvellous light. We are His representatives on the earth and it must be our number one desire to honour Him in everything we do. This is the approach to serving Him, and it also brings a corresponding approval from Him. God approved of the Lord Jesus service. Acts 2:22 ” Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:” God will respond to everyone who honours His word. Remember that  Psalm 119 : 90 reveals that, the faithfulness of the Lord is unto all generations. Put the interest of God first.

 Serve Him with all your love and every good thing would follow you.

CHRISTMAS OR X’MAS

KEY SCRIPTURE: Luke 2:11 KJV “For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord”.

Our present world is gradually becoming a world controlled and directed by the media. The media dishes to us its type of Christmas and many saints of God do not see the subtle way it is turning the whole celebration from Christ to something else. It began with the name. They say X’MAS instead of Christmas. The word Christ is never X. Christ means the anointed one (who brought salvation to all mankind). The media also sing songs about Santa Claus. Who is he? Santa Claus is supposed to be an old big bearded man with lots of gifts for all. He knows all things, sees all things and is always with you. Dear children of God, what is that? This is a lie from the pit of hell. There is nothing like Santa Claus anywhere. The whole idea is to take the Lord of glory from His centre stage of the whole celebration to something else. Church of God we should be wide awake to the big lies of the devil in all that we do especially in this Christmas festivities. Reject anything that is not of Christ.

I hear certain Christmas carols that has nothing to do with Christ. Examples of them, is “my first day of Christmas my true love gave to me. “Where does Jesus, His birth and salvation come into this song.? There are others like ‘white Christmas’ and many other recent ones. Christmas basically is a big reminder of the incarnation, where God became man and brought hope, faith and love into reality. It is a reminder of God’s provision of solution to mankind many troubles. Our songs must ONLY be about this. There are some old good traditional carols, let’s sing such carols. If we make new ones, let it still be about Jesus and His entry into the planet earth to end the sorrow and slavery of men to Satan’s lies and pseudo power.

Ones again, what is Christmas? Christmas is a remembrance of the birth of Christ Jesus. He is God who became a man so He would raise sons of God like Himself John 1:12,13, Heb 2:10,11. It is the birth of the SUPERMAN, who came to raise other superman, by living through them and manifesting His glory through them Col 1:27, Gal 2:20. Jesus indeed succeeded in this great mission. He has brought life and immortality to light because of Christmas. And as the chorus of one of the beautiful Christmas carols go; “And man would live for evermore because of Christmas day”.

WHAT IS IN MEN?

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 2:25 KJV “And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.”

Please read John 2:23-25.The bible said at the Passover period in Jerusalem, many people believed in Jesus, because of the miracles they saw him perform. The scripture added that, He did not commit himself to men because he knew what was in man. What the verses are saying is that because of the great miracles men saw Him perform, they thronged around Him, in a bid to praise Him. He likewise did not allow their acknowledgements to control Him. They are many people in places of authority who fall for the praises of men and tend to follow mostly the suggestions of the people. Men of God could become victims of such temptations. The Lord Jesus would have none of that. In such moments ,it is what those people suggest that one may do, because he finds it satisfying pleasing those people.

What is in men ? Before I answer that question ,I wish to establish that, we live primarily to please God and not men or even ourselves.

To do what God would want us do. Rev 4:11.

Every man in his or her natural self is selfish. He or she places his or her interest very high and so would want to use anything or anybody to satisfy those selfish longings. The Lord described Satan as seeking to do the desires or longings of men. Matthew 16:23 KJV” But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.” From this verse, we see that ,there are things that  pleases God, and those things that pleases men , but Satan chooses those things that please men.

John 3:19 also says, “…..men love darkness more than light ,because their deeds was evil.”  Jer 17:9 KJV” The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” It is because of this state of a man’s heart that, makes him need to be saved.

The next thing about men is that, they can be very forgetful, and would tend to forget about every good deed, but rather magnify one supposed error, to oppose, destroy or call for the destruction of their victim. To  Jesus they said  crucify Him .To Paul who healed a cripple ,they were quickly convinced to turn against Paul and even stoned Him.(Acts 14,15)

How do we relate to men? We relate to men from God’s perspective.God loves all men dearly and so we must love men dearly. Love believes all things and so we believe those who are associated with us,yet we do not put our confidence in men ,but in God. Jer 17:5 KJV “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Do not please men against the will of God.

INTERPRETING GOD’S WORD

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 2:20 KJV” Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?”

In the above scripture the Jews answered the Lord concerning His statement about raising the temple in three days, after it has been pulled down. They interpreted it as, how could he raise a building that was built over forty-six years in three days.? This was their interpretation to the Lord’s statement. We find this trend going on among many people who try to interpret the word of God. Things get rougher when it comes to interpreting signs and symbols used to explain certain parts of the scriptures. Often, such statements are parables, that may not find their interpretation literal, as compared to other scriptures. The error of these Jews is the same error that plagues most people in our times, who wrest the scriptures in trying to interpret it.

The scriptures itself shows us how to interpret itself. Isaiah 28:13 gives us the basic approach.” But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; … …”. The bible although is a combination of a number of books, was written by one author who inspired all the human vessels (2 Timothy 3:16,17). This author is the Holy Spirit.  No Scripture stands in isolation.

Isaiah 28:13 says God has given his message, from precept to precept, and line upon line, there a little, here a little. To be able to give good interpretation to the scriptures you need to have a good knowledge of the scriptures. By such knowledge, you would be able to explain certain symbolic statements, because, their meaning is given at other portions of the scriptures. You would also be able to see literal meanings of various statements that must be interpretated literally.

The Jewish people approached Jesus’ statement purely from a natural and none scriptural point of view. The Old Testament gives lots of prophecies about Jesus’ birth, suffering, death and resurrection. Isaiah 53, Ps 16:10,11; Hosea 6:2) With the principle of Isaiah 28:13 they would have understood that He was talking about His death. Well, the Holy Spirit who throws light on various scriptures was not with them to assist them. (John 14:26.) To add to what has been said above; for proper interpretation, one needs to first consider the context of the scripture and find the literal meaning as the author said it to its expected audience. Knowing the culture of the people at the moment of that scripture also gives more insight into the meaning of the verse.

 To also have a good understanding of the scripture, you need to always approach the scripture with an opened mind, and not with any preconceived notions which may not help you see what the passage or verses may be saying.

THOUGHT: FOR GOOD INTERPRETATION, YOU NEED A GOOD KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORD, AND THE ILLUMINATION OF THE SPIRIT.

THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 2:19 KJV “Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

After the Lord turned water into wine, and went ahead to cleanse the temple off the money changers and those selling goats, sheep, etc, the people acknowledged something unique about Jesus. They asked, what sign would you show us? The Lord said destroy this temple, and in three days time I will raise it again. He spoke about his own body. The Lord reveals clearly that, He is a Spirit being and lives within a house or temple which is His physical body. By that understanding, He was able to live above the many limitations of the body. We as saints of God, are also spirits living in earthly temples.2Co 5:1 KJV ” For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.” This awareness is a fundamental truth for supernatural exploits.

There is another divine revelation that the Lord Jesus made in the statement about destroying the temple. He said if the temple was destroyed, he would build it up in three days. He did not say, My father would raise it, or the Holy Spirit, but said, I will raise it up. This means He is God. No one can raise his own dead body, except by an external power. Only Jesus could say such things because He is a mysterious being, for that matter, the very creator of the universe. John 10:18 KJV “No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.”

Dear child of God, what do you say about yourself? The scripture reveals we are born of the Spirit of God. The following is what the word says about those born of the Spirit. John 3:8 says the wind blows to wherever it wants, you can hear the sound of it, but you cannot tell, where it is blowing from or going. So is everyone born of the Spirit. It simply means you have a limit breaking potentials. You can only manifest this potential when you live in the Spirit and by the Spirit. Carnality which is living by the senses will deprive you of your supernatural potentials. Samson was on top of his world so long as he kept to the life of the Spirit, but was reduced to a piece of mockery when he responded to the voice of lust. Judges Ch 13-16

Rom 8:6 KJV “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”

THE ZEAL FACTOR

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 2:17 KJV “And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.”

At the early stages of the conversion of most Christians, they find themselves in so much love for the master. It is called first love. They want to talk to everyone about their new found faith. A senior of mine after receiving the baptism in the Holy Spirit, with evidence of speaking in tongues, kept praying in tongues for a couple of hours and so was sent to mental hospital in Cape Coast but found nothing medically wrong with him. What is that which makes people seem to go to the extremes of their faith? It is a virtue called zeal. Zeal is described as fire in the soul of an individual that spurs him on to do things that ordinary individuals would not do. It can be likened to passion in the soul of a man. The bible says it was zeal  for the house of God, that made the Lord act the way He did.

Zeal is the Spirit of God in charge of one’s thinking, therefore, the Holy Spirit controls his actions. A zealous individual gets much done for God. He is described as being beside himself, because he acts in pure love for the master.2 Corinth 5:13 KJV” For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. Apostle Paul explained further, it is the love of Christ that controls him. Every Christian needs to do all things by the influence of the zeal for God. With zeal much would be achieved for God through evangelism, and every aspect of the Christian life.

One’s zeal can be either High or low depending on his or her fellowship with the Spirit of God. Lack of fellowship that is the absence of prayer, studying the word and fasting, weakens the influence of the Spirit, and so the flesh becomes master and zeal is low or zero. Zero zeal is a very dangerous state for every believer. It is a symbol of the absence of oil in the life of a Saint. In the story of the parable of the ten virgins, the five were described as foolish because they had zero zeal.

You can always fan your zeal very high. Repent from every carnal life, stir up the presence of the Spirit in you, through prayer and the study of the word. Keep doing it, till it becomes instinctive to please the master without effort. This is the state that makes you ready for heaven. Matthew 25:13 KJV “Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.”

Pls read Matthew 25:1-13

WHEN GOD’S HOUSE BECOME MONEY “CENTRIQ”

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 2:14 KJV “And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:”

The word money “centriq” is not a word in any official dictionary, but my own creation. It means when money becomes the central focus in all that one does. This was the state of the house of God, during that Passover season, when the Lord visited it. Under the old covenant of the law, a lot of sacrifices of animals are made by individuals during that time. Buying animals, like, oxen, sheep, goat, doves and exchanging money was at its peak. As a result of this the core function of God’s house, which is prayer and sharing God’s word was no more done.

The Lord got furious with the sight and quickly made a little whip to beat the rot out of the temple. Dear man of God, what kind of house of God do you have? In lots of places, it is all about money. Many use all kinds of manipulations to extort money from innocent congregation members. There are those who bring various oils and sell them. Some would anoint the floor and ask people to stand in the oil and make donations of all kinds. A note here, the Spirit of the Lord may ask for certain particular instruction to be followed. We may not talk about that one. It is all about the motive by which one does those things. Dear man of God, anything you do in the name of the Lord which is a lie, would surely call for God’s righteous judgement and retribution. Every servant of Ghrist, has been called by the Lord and it is the Lord who pays you.

I want people who do such things to know that there are two main consequences that awaits you. The Lord may bring the whip one day, and that is to bring certain corrections that may put you that man of God to  an open  shame  or you would be in ministry yet your spiritual candle has been put out .Remember that King Saul was on the throne, yet He had been neglected and David had been chosen.1 Samuel 15:28 ” And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, that is better than thou.” God did not call you to sideline you, so repent and focus on pleasing the master. Serve the Lord faithfully and you would never lack any good thing.

MIRACLES MANIFEST GOD’S GLORY

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 2:11 KJV” This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.”

Miracles are the longings of the soul of every man. Miracles point to the presence of God at a place. The greatest longings of all men, irrespective of their race, academic level is to encounter the reality of God. Men would flock at where miracles are happening. There are false miracle workers anyway. These ones can easily be identified. The Lord said, by their fruits you shall know them. In the light of this every worker for God must yearn to see the miraculous arm of God in His ministry. Our key scripture revealed that, the miracle of turning water into wine revealed the glory of God, and Jesus disciples believed in Him.

Miracles on many occasions authenticate a man’s ministry. In Joshua 3:7 the Lord God almighty authenticated His hand on Joshua by rolling back the Jordan for Israel to walk on solid dry grounds. Jos 3:7 KJV “And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.” God desires to confirm His approval of His servants leadership over His children by working miracles through them. Dear leader of God’s people If you are having difficulties among the people, you have been called to lead, then ask the Lord to confirm it to them by working miracles through your hands.

Miracles are the intervention of God’s supernatural hand in our day-to-day encounters. They come to terminate what Satan has tried to destroy. On many occasions human beings have no clue to such situations.

I watched Ps Chris Oyakhilome PhD, pray for a woman whose vital organs were all failing. Her system was almost at a shut down. The power of God went into her and instantly she begun to live again. God is still in the miracle business and any man or woman of God who will hunger and thirst for this grace of walking in the miraculous would indeed see Miracles.

It begins with a sincere desire to alleviate men from the torments of the devil. You also seek it that God’s name may be glorified in the midst of men. Finally, kill every selfish hidden agenda. God is faithful who seeks the peace and blessing of all men, will honour you with the grace.
