He who earnestly seeks righteousness and loyalty Finds life, righteousness, and honor.

The Wise shall Shine brightly because they turn many to righteousness

Those who are [spiritually] wise will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead many to righteousness, [will shine] like the stars forever and ever.
DANIEL 12:3 AMP

Glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Godly wisdom comes from above, it is the fear of the Lord that is the beginning of wisdom. It is therefore essential that we connect to the Source of wisdom so we attain the brightness of heaven.

Again, the wisdom of God will enable us to lead others to Christ and therefore righteousness. Let us continue to lead others unto the paths of righteousness and we shall shine like stars forever.

Lord you are our Alpha and Omega, our Adonai. We declare that we have acquired Godly wisdom and shall shine as stars forever. Shine forever as Stars till the coming of the Lord. Blessings

Seek God’s Kingdom and Righteousness First

But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right—the attitude and character of God], and all these things will be given to you also.
Matthew 6:33 AMP

Praise and glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Today’s scripture is one of Jesus’ most important teaching when He started His ministry here on earth. The command to seek first God’s Kingdom and righteousness forms the basis of our Christian faith.

In this scripture Jesus makes it clear that if anyone wants to pursue Christianity, then set your priorities right by turning to God first.

To seek God first means to fill your thoughts with His desires, to pattern His character, to serve and obey His Word. All the things that we desire in this life shall be added on after we have taken the foremost step of seeking the Lord.

May we seek the Lord and His righteousness first. May our character follow the pattern of Christ Jesus and may we receive all the other things we desire in this life in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Discipline yields a Harvest of Righteousness

For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems sad and painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness [right standing with God and a lifestyle and attitude that seeks conformity to God’s will and purpose].
HEBREWS 12:11 AMP

Praise and Glory be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Thank you Lord Jesus for victory on the cross, you endured it so that we can enjoy eternal life. The process of going through discipline is a tough one and not pleasant to anyone.

It is very easy or natural to react negatively towards discipline when it is being meted out. The rewards are however great. May we be humble to go through discipline where required.

Enduring discipline brings us a lifestyle and attitude that conforms to God’s will and purposes.

May we reap the fruits of Righteousness that comes from subjecting ourselves to the discipline of God’s Word. May our lifestyles conform to the Word of God, may the discipline of God’s Word make us more productive and a better people to impact our world. Amen.

Righteousness Guards the Path of the blameless

Righteousness (being in right standing with God) guards the one whose way is blameless, But wickedness undermines and overthrows the sinner.
PROVERBS 13:6 AMP

Glory be to God for this beautiful day, may the joy of the Lord be with you throughout the day. Thanks be to God for bringing us to the end of the 5th month of the year.

Righteousness is simply living right with God and this is what makes one a godly and upright person. It is your godliness or righteousness that will guard you from destruction.

The unrighteous person is the one who disregards the Word and ways of God so walks into the very sinful acts that the Word of God speaks against.

When you walk according to your own ways, you do your things your own way and therefore not covered by the protection of God. When you are not right with God you do not have the holy Spirit dwelling in you to prompt you not to sin against the Most High God. You may find yourself literally walking into destruction because that is what the depraved mind will lead you to do.Our bodies are the temples of God and must be sanctified at all times.

May the Lord help us to live right with Him so that we do not commit sins against our bodies and against God. May Jehovah God help us to walk blameless before Him all the days of our lives in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

Blessed are those persecuted for righteousness sake

“Blessed [comforted by inner peace and God’s love] are those who are persecuted for doing that which is morally right, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven [both now and forever].
MATTHEW 5:10 AMP

Thanks be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Today’s scripture was delivered as part of Jesus’ sermon on the Mount.

Jesus said that for everyone that is persecuted for righteousness sake, the kingdom of Heaven shall be your reward. Therefore anyone who strives to live a godly and upright life for the Lord and is being called names today like Osofo and Maame Osofo, should count it joy because of the ultimate reward.

The rewards are for now and forever more, stay on the righteousness path with the Lord and your reward shall be both physical and spiritual which is the ultimate reward of eternal life.

May the Lord grant us the grace that we need to stay and walk in righteousness till the very end so we do not miss out on His ultimate reward. May we be blessed as we keep doing what is morally right for God’s kingdom. Amen.

Blessed are those Hunger and Thirst for God’s Righteousness

“Blessed [joyful, nourished by God’s goodness] are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness [those who actively seek right standing with God], for they will be [completely] satisfied.
MATTHEW 5:6 AMP

Glory and honour and adoration be unto God for this beautiful day, may the peace and joy of the Lord guide us this day through and through.

Thank God for His Word and the Sermon on the Mount which is very significant. The scripture says that we should hunger and thirst for God’s Righteousness, that is do everything possible to obtain righteousness. If the hunger is not enough to bring righteousness, the thirst will bring it!

Righteousness is simply living right with God so the desire to drink water on a daily basis must compare to our desire and longing to live right with God daily.

The scripture goes on to say that the one who hungers and thirsts for righteousness shall be satisfied and be a blessed person! We should therefore find this piece of scripture a joyful thing to do to court the blessings of the Most High God.

May we receive the joyful nourishment of God’s goodness as we seek His righteousness through our thirst and hunger for Him in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Manifest The Fruit of the Spirit

But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.
GALATIANS 5:22‭-‬23 AMP

We praise God for this brand new day and the gift of life today.

The fruit of the Spirit is what yields in our lives when we allow God’s Spirit to dwell and operate in us. The fruit therefore manifests where the presence of God is…as some may say..it is the end product of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

The fruit of the Spirit is the love, peace, joy, patience, self control, kindness, goodness etc that is shown or made manifest in the life of the true believer. Do we exhibit the above fruits? If not really, then we need to work at courting the Holy Spirit to work within us so these final products (virtues) will show forth.

May the Spirit of God take root in our lives so that we will yield the fruit of the Spirit everywhere and every time. May we experience that closer walk with the Holy Spirit in Jesus mighty name. Shalom

Saviour or Judge

For God did not send the Son into the world to judge and condemn the world [that is, to initiate the final judgment of the world], but that the world might be saved through Him.

(JOHN 3:17 AMP)
For the Love that God the Father has for His Children is amazing and awesome. This caused Him to send down His only begotten and beloved Son to die to save us. 
Today’s scripture confirms that His Son did not come as a Judge to judge and condemn the world but to SAVE the world. This should prompt us that a time will come when God the Father will send His Son to come and initiate the judgement of the World. 
Since no one knows the time that the Son shall come to initiate the judgement, we need to make full use of the time on hand and make sure our Salvation is assured before judgement.
God be our help. Make a decision to follow Christ Jesus today if you not taken that step. Shalom.Blessings.
