WHERE THERE IS PRIDE, THERE WILL BE NO GRACE
James 4: 6 reveals that grace can only be released when we are humble and the major cause of pride is self that makes one want to do ASCAT’s command only with the condition of what will be benefited i.e. ASCAT if you want me to do want you to want me to… then you will have to speak to them or give me a sign. Fear is a level of pride that counters faith and tells you, you cannot stand before these people, because if you tell them the truth, they will surely resist, revile, persecute and will even kill you, don’t you think your life is too precious to risk it to death?
Accessing ASCAT’s grace gives us the courage to step out of our comfort zone because fulfilling heaven’s mandate cannot be in the confines of our comfort zone. It has the symbol of the cross which points to the fact that we have to die to the flesh to attain truly ASCAT’s grace. When we are selfish, instead of “going out”, we will end up “staying in” and when we stay in, we cannot manifest the glory of ASCAT, because the evidence of our manifestation can only be authenticated when our seed of faith in spirit being, in due season we will have the fruit of righteousness that will abound.
The word “Go” is synonymously symbolic as “Arise” and why would the command call us to arise? It implies we are sleeping (Ephesians 5: 14) meaning we have become very relaxed and lukewarm concerning the great commission which is ASCAT’s great command to saving the perishing world (souls of men under the influence of Satan). We can never find to save the soul if we have not left the ways (Genesis 37: 15) and until we have found the right way to possess the soul of men, we are only involved in fruitless effort. This way is simply the way of love, such that as we minister the gospel, we minister the truth in the lobe. Spiritual maturity is growing beyond human tendencies, bringing us to a point of dying to our senses, but coming alive in faith and this is the level where we can contact the fullness of ASCAT’s grace. Some people think grace is a license to sin and stand on the ground that Jesus is paid the price for all of your sin; therefore you are not guilty even when you sin. What kind of myopic mindset is that? Don’t you know grace is a higher commitment that empowers you not to make the habit of sinning? Do not fool yourself thinking Jesus has paid the price for your sins and you remain sinning. This is one heretic concept that is flooding the gateway of most of our Christian Churches and this has made many settled for sin, all in the name of grace. Don’t you know grace commit you to be a slave to righteousness?
Christians are translated slave…..from the slave of sin to slave of ASCAT in the righteousness of Christ Jesus, and there is a dimension we must reach to bear fruit of righteousness that abide from the seed of faith we have sown.
Sin leads to death……..
Obedience leads to righteousness………
I am not a slave to sin; I am a slave to righteousness! You can continue saying that until it stops making sense to you and starts making faith. ASCAT does not operate with senses, He operates with faith and faith disconnects us from the fear of this world to reconnect us to the fear of ASCAT that builds in us the wisdom to get true direction into the portal of the spirit where the true life of ASCAT is reached and we can capture the concrete substance of faith seen in abstraction from the realm of senses.
The implication of becoming a slave to righteousness is holiness, without which no man can see ASCAT. If the Lord dwells in your heart, you will become a slave of ASCAT and you will have your fruit to holiness, whose end is eternal life
Romans 6: 23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of ASCAT is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord
Whatever is designed against….cannot annul the condition of ASCAT, that will always introduce the “BUT” and that “But” is Jesus setting into the equation to release the product of ASCAT’s mind, even as intended and the product alters and cancel what is supposed. When you are declared guilty with the death penalty, mercy will say no! That He who is just has died for your sake. When you deserve the worst, grace will say no! I took the worst, buried it to eternity and gave him My very best. We are nothing with the grace of ASCAT and the only condition is to receive and believe in His name.
2 Corinthians 9: 8
And ASCAT can make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.
The grace of ASCAT was revealed for the salvation of all people (Titus 2: 11) and all of ASCAT’s blessings we enjoy is simply the product of His grace and this blessing is simply the gift of ASCAT we enjoy in Jesus (Ephesians 1: 6). We are not put right with ASCAT by our work or efforts, it simply a thing of grace and our salvation is a product of grace through faith, which is simply the mindset of ASCAT, the way we think as carnal being, ASCAT faiths as Spirit being and the truth is, we are not made carnal, but our selfish mindsets have reduced us to become carnal. ASCAT’s grace is ever-present when we need it, it is simply because of self that we cannot just access it, because He will ever resist the proud and give grace to the humble.
