WORKMANSHIP

Text : Ephesians 2:10 

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

All men are created by God, but not all have been recreated in Christ Jesus. Anyone who is not recreated in Christ Jesus will not be able to fulfill what God had predestined for  him(God's purpose). 

TO BE CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS IS TO BE BORN AGAIN(John 3:3).

You are the piece that God has created. The workmanship, product or craftsmanship is determined by the Producer, or artisan. The quality and excellence of what is produced is dependent on the producer. Your product shows who you are. So, if you are God's product, it simply shows who He is. The scripture says that you are fearfully and wonderfully made....Psalms 139:4. This shows to you that your Producer(God) is a wonderful and fearful Being. 

Imagine the great feat, innovations and discoveries humans have been achieving in our world today. All these are pointer to the greatness of our God.  

Howbeit, all the great wonders, discoveries and innovations you are seeing in our world today, are nothing to be compared with the original plan of God for man. For any man to enter into the full plan of God for His life, such must first be recreated in Christ. There is no other way to enter into the wonderful plans of God for you except through Christ. (John 14:6). 

In Christ, you are now created unto good works. Your recreation in Christ Jesus is unto good works and not dead works. These good works have been ordained for you to walk in before time began. The good works are not the ones you Do but the ones you Walk In-They are depicted by the lifestyles God  ordained for you. These good works are the shining of the Light of God in you through your walk. Mathew 5:16. 

This good work is your  walk in Charity towards all. Charity is a Walk(lifestyle) pattern that produce good works. 

Knowing that you are God's workmanship, recreated in Christ Jesus, you must know that God's ordination for a Walk unto good works is upon you.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
