The Ways Of God

God's righteousness is born out of His love nature because He is Love (1 Jn 4:8). It is God's eternal correctness in consistence with His Love nature. It is God being who He is and God's word being what God says it is because of His divine integrity. It is the fundamental force of the judgment of God (what He stands upon to pass judgment). The judgment of God is His decree over a person or circumstance based on His righteousness.

These statements are the raw material for this teaching I am bringing you by God's Spirit. WORDCOMPANY is back and you will be reading a lot of powerful messages designed to guarantee your relevance in this end time scheme of things. God is on the move and only men who can comprehend His ways can be relevant as Moses was relevant. The opening paragraph presents the very foundation of the ways of God as He revealed it to His servants of Old in His Word. Let me say this at this point: God does not and will never want to be a mystery to you. If you draw near to Him, He will draw near to you. I greet you in Jesus name. Welcome to a new journey with Wordcompany.

God is Love and His nature motivates His actions (Jn 3:16; 1 Jn 4:8; Rom 5:6-8). In our dispensation, the righteousness of God is the revelation of Jesus Christ and it is by FAITH to all who believe in His redemptive work and in Him to the end that they are justified by FAITH to receive that same righteousness (Rom 3:21-26; 5:17; 1Cor 5:21). This righteousness is revealed to us by the gospel (Rom 1:16-17) and it is what the Psalmist referred to as the Ways of God revealed unto Moses (Ps 103:7).

In the Old covenant, the righteousness of God was revealed in the Law to the end that all men might be guilty before God. The Law brought about the CONSCIOUSNESS of sin thus waking us up to the need for a Messiah (Rom 3:19-20). To Adam and Eve, the righteousness of God was revealed in the slaying of an animal (whose blood was atonement) whose skin was used to cover their nakedness- an Image of what God has done for the believer with the Blood of Jesus. To Noah and His generation, the Ark was a revelation of God's righteousness.  He will not judge the righteous (Gen 6; 1 Pet 3:20-21; 2 Pet 2:9).

This is an introduction. In the sequel we will begin to answer the following questions:
1. Why does God do what He does?
2. Has God anything in place to align man's motif with His nature?
3.  When we do what we do for God or I  His name, why should we do it?
4. Is it just the things we do God will Judge or the motif behind what we do?

Watch out. Remember, the Truth , our guide. Shalom Yedidim.

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

A case for Heavenly Mindedness.

It is often said "do not be so heavenly conscious that you become earthly useless" but I say unto you, the man who is conscious of eternity as he ought cannot and will not be earthly useless. His heart will be set on pleasing God and that means obeying God's every instruction on his life. There is no man who has so lives that turns out useless to his world and generation. Jesus didn't turn out that way nor did the apostles and every other saint whose names we mention and whose works we reference. Their contributions derived from inspiration that flowed from their following God faithfully is the light we now shine for the next generation. This systematic secularization of the church is what is standing between men and their eternal destines on the earth. We complain we do not have devoted men serving God but we preach that men should balance spirituality and secularism. It is not so in God’s word. You cannot serve two masters. You are either following God or you are f...

SEXUAL PURITY

Sex. This three letter word is one of the most talked about subject in the world. In fact, we live in a highly sexualized generation. I have seen bill boards that have pictures of ladies not properly dressed, advertising tooth paste! Movies are not interesting without sex, novels struggle to sell if there is no touch of sex. It is hard these days for young people to live untangled lives, free from the grip and influence of sex. Marriages are not free either as infidelity remains a leading cause of divorce. I read twenty-six different stories today, sad tales of young men who were molested at some point in their life, some were raped. There are also stories of women whose lives carry scars from sexual abuse. The world we live in is sexually charged and there are now all sorts of ways people go about discharging. The journey towards sexual purity begins at gaining a proper understanding of sex. This understanding can only be formed from God's word. This understanding will be built...
