Living without shame

Living without shame

For the scripture says, “whosoever believes on Him will not be put to shame”

Rome 10:11 (KJV)

When you are in Christ your life is in Christ. Life in Christ is a life free from shame, guilt, sin consciousness and condemnation. Adam in the garden never felt shame because he was clothed with God's glory. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. Genesis 2:25. (KJV) When you are cloth with His glory you can’t be ashamed. How can you get shame? Felt someone condemning you. When you are in Christ, there is no shame before God. When God created man there was no shame. Man did not know what it meant to be ashamed. There was no hiding before God or one another. They could walk in intimacy with God.

One day they fell into sin and hid themselves from God because they were ashamed. Genesis3:8; they heard the sound of the Lord walking in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord among the trees of the garden. Many times we think we can hide from God because of the lies of the enemy that God is not seeing. Man's greatest problem today in the world is guilt. Guilt destroys Spiritual, physical and mental health. In Christ we are all covered, forgiven forever. In Christ your shame and guilt is removed forever. In Christ your dignity is restored. Jesus righteousness was given to us as a free gift through grace. Now we enjoy the abundance of the gift of righteousness we can boldly come before His throne. When you are in Christ Jesus you can boldly come into the presence of God, this consciousness is what make us come boldly before God without shame.

No Shame before Man. Joel 2-6-27, you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God; who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people shall never be put to shame. Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel; and I am the Lord your God and there is no other. My people shall never again be put to shame. In Christ you need to be transparent before man. Your relationships are free; you are totally transparent and free to be yourself. You don’t live for yourself, or others opinions, you know who you are in Christ because of what He has done for you.

No shame before the devil. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “ now salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ has come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. “ And they overcome him by the blood of the lamb and by their word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to death. Revelation12:10-11. (KJV) The devil is an accuser of the brethren. He is always there to accuse you of your sins but all your sins were nail to the cross and was washed by the blood of Jesus, so no shame before the devil for this is our testimony.

No shame before yourself. You need no to be ashamed of yourself or your past failures. You are declared righteous forever. In Christ never again should you be ashamed. Instead of shame you have double honor. Ephesians 1:5 Having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to himself, according to his good pleasure of his will

Never again should you be ashamed before God; never again should you be ashamed before man; never again should you be ashamed before the devil; and never again should you be ashamed of yourself. You are in Christ Jesus! Hallelujah!! God bless you.

The Word of God is working in me, producing what it talks about and propelling me from one level of greatness to another. Through the Word, I'm moving from glory to glory and making progress in every area of my life. My profiting is appearing to all, and I'm manifesting the virtues of the divine life as the Word of God pilots me in the upward-and-forward direction. Never again we I live in shame and condemnation in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Victory Keys

Victory Keys

And the Lord said to Moses,” why do you cry unto me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. Exodus 14:15-16

God want us to live a life of victory. Our victory in life is obtained when we are able to understand God’s victory keys. You may be going through a difficult situation in life and you have being crying to God just as the Children of Israel faced with the red sea. It might be what you are going through in your office, finance, business, health, family and its standing as a flooding sea stopping you from moving forward. God is asking you, why are you crying to me? Go forward! Even in that situation, God is telling you to go forward.

The kingdom of God is a kingdom of hierarchy. There are victory keys in order to live a victorious life. One of the keys to a successful and victorious life is to be under spiritual leadership. God is a God of structure and leadership. He has appointed his ministers to guide and lead you. Many people loss their battle because they don’t have spiritual leader to protect them. “To be independent is to be depended to everybody but accountable to nobody.” If you don’t see yourself as a member of Christ body (local church) you will loss many battles in life.

Secondly, you need to use your God given authority. Exodus14:16“But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

Stretch out your rod. The rod speaks of authority. As child of God, you have been given all authority. Every believer in Christ is authorized to destroy all the powers of darkness. There is no need to cry. The problem sea will not divide by itself. You must divide it. You are fighting in partnership with God. If you don’t command, God wouldn’t command. You have God name (Jesus) to use, his word and his blood. This day I encourage you to command that circumstance to be favorable to you in the name of Jesus. Speak his word and use the authority in his blood and you will see a change in that situation.

Remember the first step to a victorious life is to see your battle as God battle. Your end has not yet come even though things may go wrong around you. Satan is allowed to attack God’s people so that God will show his purpose of victory in your life. hold your peace, be under spiritual leadership and use your God given authority.

Your victory is His victory. God blessed you!

Daily Confession

The Name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runs into it and is safe. Therefore, I cannot be helpless or distressed about anything, for I have the right to use the Name of Jesus, and that Name is greater and more powerful than any situation I may face! The Name of Jesus is my security and assurance for victory; I live by the power of that Name today.

Memory verse;

“And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. (Matthew 16:19).

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall; one will lift up his companion but woe to him who is alone when he falls; for he has on one to help him up. Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; but how can one be warn alone? Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken. (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12.)

From slavery to mighty armies.

From slavery to mighty armies.

Now the sojourn of the children of Israel who lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years – on that very same day, it came to pass that all the armies of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. Exodus 12:40-41. (NKJV)

This is a story of the children of God in Egypt. They had been under the bondages of pharaoh and his men for four hundred and thirty years. In order words, they were salvers to the Egyptians. Exodus 12:41, And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years-on that same day, it came to passed that all the armies of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.

Egypt represents the world. We were once salvers to the things of this world but everything changed when we came to Christ. In order words; every slavers in the world becomes an army when he comes to the Lord. As a child of God you are an army of God. Your enemies are already defeated. Every believer must have this revelation. You don’t fight to win the battle but you fight to keep the victory.

The first step to a victorious life is to see your-self as a victor. Your end has not yet come even though things may go wrong around you. Satan is allowed to attack God’s people so that God will show his purpose of victory in your life. Exodus 14:4.” Then I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, so that he will pursue them; and I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, that the Egyptians may know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.

Daily Confession

I am a victor in Christ; no more a slaver to this world but an army of God. My battles are His battles and my enemies are His enemies. Nothing shall workout for my disadvantage but all things work together for my good. I live a victorious life because I love Him and I am called according to His purpose.

Memory verse;

Yet in all this things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Rome 8: 37.
