By The Grace of God

Romans 6. 15.16

No man truly understands the true value  of a single individual upon the face of the earth except God.

The  true value of a man is beyond fathom by the human mind.

Its here and now that i want to suggest that the reason why man hates fellow man is because of the enigmatic nature of man’s true value.

 It took God’s best sense of value in the express image of Jesus to save mankind.

God gave his only begotten son for the salvation of humanity.

It was the wrath of God by which Lucifer who also came to be known as the devil which actually got him banished  from the presence of God.

On the other hand however, its the favor of God which sustains man in the presence of God.

If there is anything that the devil can’t wrap his mind around then its the grace of God.

The devil who was prior known as Lucifer who was a companion of God dwelling in the presence of the same.

Then he one time offended God and in offending God, the wrath of God was attracted unto Lucifer because of the offense he committed against God.

When God’s wrath rained against Lucifer, he was eventually banished from the presence of the Lord God Almighty.

After a while God raised up man and the devil was jealousy of man because he looked at man as one who was appointed to take up his place of favor with God.

Consequently the devil plotted the fall and the demise of man while in the Garden of Eden.

Man fell by eating the forbidden fruit at the deceitfulness of the devil and henceforth man was banished out of the Garden of Eden and the devil was seemingly full of excitement.

And then Jesus comes up on the scene and dies for the sins of humanity and as a result of his death man was restored from the place he fell away from While still in the garden of Eden.

However the restoration of mankind from the fallen state to the  state of restoration and reconciliation with God was an enforcement by the grace of God  Almighty.

Grace is  the unmerited favor of God Almighty.

Many times when you get attracted to people you get attracted to them  because of their incredible performance that brings pleasure  to your  sensual perception.


However when you attracted to someone despite their unpleasing performance then that is the grace of God

Enjoy the process



Mark 4:36-37

If the chef is not passionate about the process of preparing a given meal then when the time to serve the meal comes to pass, the people who have been scheduled to take the meal will not find satisfaction in the efforts of the chef.

This is so because the meal will surely not be appealing, attractive, and delicious and henceforth the meal will not be a blessing to the partakers thereof.

Much so if the word of God that has been earmarked by God to bless the people of God is going to come out of your belly then you have got to endure a process.

A process which will expose you to the fire of God whose purpose is to perfect that which God has laid on the inside of you, the only way that you going to tell that you have been perfected to a level of blessing the people of God with the word is when you come through the attack against your life and purpose standing and praising God.

You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s people with his holy word after overcoming every battle against your life.

You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s people with his holy word after you have been through the fire and you have not been destroyed but rather you have stayed alive to tell the story.

You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s people with his holy word after you have been to hell and back and yet still have your praise gear on.

You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s people with his holy word that has the propensity to deliver, restore and take people to the next level after you have endured the worst storm of your life and yet still you keep on holding unto the Lord your God.

 You can tell  that you have been perfected to bless God’s people with his holy word that has the capacity to deliver and change the world after you have lost all there is to lose but yet still you keep on trusting God to give you much more than you have ever possessed.

At this juncture, it’s here and now that we ought to appreciate that the reason why Jesus allows his disciples in Mark 4:36-37 to be exposed to a storm was in order to prepare them to be able to bless the people of God big time after  his very own departure.

Thus it’s fundamental to understand that the reason why God gives you a promise and instead of things getting better, they just get worse is because God is preparing you to receive the promise.

God prepares you for the blessing by way of a process which sometimes requires for you to be put under pressure and to go through the fire, the storm and the fierce floods.

And after the process you will then receive the promise. People who are afraid of the process never get the opportunity to serve God in order for their service in God to be a blessing to the people of God.

Furthermore, you will never be a blessing to the people of God till you learn how to enjoy the process which God ordains in order to prepare you to inherit and possess the blessings that he ordained for you before the foundation of the earth.
