DESTROYING THE OLD MAN.

DESTROYING THE OLD MAN.

Text : Colossians 3:9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

Colossians 3:10
and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him--

There  are two kinds of man in a man's life. Controlling the entire course of your life. The old man and the new man. One has power over the other depending on state of the man.
the old man is Satan's point of contact. We have this message in two sub topic :

1. PUTTING OFF THE OLD MAN. 

The old man is the old life..
The old man is the body of sin...
The old man represents  the old conversation...
It doesn't care who you are, it subject to bondage of different kinds as long as you allow him to exist..
It carry along with it every form of failures, disappointment, life of problems.
He makes you not to take your Christian faith seriously..
It steal your hunger for
It kills your zeal for God, love for God, faith in God filling you with every doubt, reasons and excuses.
A man who live like this doesn't receive anything from God. And doesn't go far in life.



Ephesians 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

The power of the old man is broken on the cross. When our sins were placed on him.

👉HOW TO PUT OFF  THE OLD MAN AND ITS DEEDS..

2. PUT ON THE NEW MAN. 
The first step to destroy the old man and its works in your body is to
Embrace the new man and its life.

Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

Ephesians 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

the new man is the new life in Christ.
The New man is renewed in the knowledge of God.
The New man is created in the image and likeness of God. Gen 3:
The image of God is the image of righteousness and true holiness.
Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

1. Be in Christ. LIVING THE CHRISTIAN LIFE.
ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST INTO YOUR LIFE.
THE OLD MAN IS POWERLESS WERE CHRIST DOMINATES.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

2. STUDY THE BIBLE., PRACTICE GOD 's WORD.
The bible is God's written word, it's our source of faith.
1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

3. WAIK BY FAITH, AND BE PRAYERFUL.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Romans 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.


4. REJOICE PUBLICLY AND RESIST TEMPTATION.
Give your testimony for Christ and tell others what he has done for you.
St. Matthew 10:32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
St. Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Temptation is not sin, it is yielding to temptation that is sin.


5. RENDER TO GOD THINGS THAT BELONGS TO GOD.
St. Matthew 22:17 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
St. Matthew 22:19 Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
St. Matthew 22:20 And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
St. Matthew 22:21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.

start tithing and render your income to support God's work in the church.

Malachi 3:8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
Malachi 3:9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.

6.REGULARLY ATTEND A CHURCH FELLOWSHIP.
Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

The Acts 20:7 And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.

FROM ORDINARY MEN TO ETRA-ORDINARY MEN. 

The Acts 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.


When Jesus wanted to choose His first 12 disciples, He did not choose the best men in the school of rabbi nor men of formal education , they were not Men of class but ordinary fisher Men, local men and tax collector, etc. BUT WHEN THEY MET JESUS THEY WERE TRANSFORMED BY HIS WORDS AND BECAME DISCIPLES AND WHEN THE HOLY GHOST FIRE CAME UPON THEM, THEY BECAME APOSTLES . MAY GOD ADD "EXTRA " TO YOUR ORDINARY LIFE AND MAKE IT ETRA -ORDINARY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. ‪#‎FireGospelMinistry‬

1 Corinthians 1:27-29 "But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nothing things that are:
That no flesh should glory in his presence.

The Devil Is a Lie.

Exposing the Devil's 3 Slanderous Lies That Keep You in Emotional Bondage

Kimberly Taylor with Athena Dean Holtz
Mar 25, 6:00 PM

A common question many believers ask is: "How can I control my emotions as a Christian?"

My new interview series features the best encouragement on managing emotions from noted Christian authors.

Our first inspirational interview is with Athena Dean Holtz. A Christian publisher, speaker, author, blogger, radio personality and pastor's wife, Athena's latest book is Full Circle: Coming Home to the Faithfulness of God.

Read the interview below:

1. What are your favorite Scriptures that help you manage your emotions and why?

• "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with gratitude, make your requests known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will protect your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:6-7)
• "May all my enemies be ashamed and greatly terrified; may they turn back and be suddenly ashamed" (Ps. 6:10).

Both of these Scriptures provide next steps in order for us to focus on Christ to manage our emotions. Each one gives us something to do.

Instead of being anxious, pray with thanksgiving, trusting Him to answer those prayers and take care of the situation that is causing us to be anxious.

As we obey Him in this small step, His peace guards our hearts and minds. Although the situation may not change, He is faithful to teach us to trust Him for the outcome that will glorify Him best.

I know one of my weaknesses is to assume the worst. When my emotions start ruling my world, it's time to be still. To slow down. To focus on the one who loves me more than life itself.

As I do that, I am able to take my thoughts captive and remember that my God is sovereign. Nothing happens to me that He doesn't know about. I can trust Him.

2. What are three of your best tips to help others manage their emotions in godly ways?

• Understand that the enemy prowls around, like a roaring lion, seeking who he might devour. Put on your armor, every day.  Speak out loud as in the statements below:

Today, I put on the belt of truth. Lord, help me to speak only the truth today (Eph. 6:14).

I put on the breastplate of righteousness, that my heart might be right before You (Eph. 6:14).

I shod my feet in the gospel of peace, that I might go wherever You send me today (Eph. 6:15).

I lift up the shield of faith to protect me from every fiery darts of the evil one (Eph. 6:16).

I put on the helmet of salvation, which is the mind of Christ. Lord, let me have Your thoughts today (Eph. 6:17).

I take up the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, sharper than any two-edged sword. Help me to use that sword against every lie of the evil one that comes my way today (Eph. 6:17).

And I pray in the Spirit when I need to talk to You today (Eph. 6:18).

Thank You, Lord, that You don't leave me unprotected, but give me Your glory as a rear guard (Is.  58:8).

And so, I choose the will of God, and I refuse the will of Satan. (Is. 7:14-15).

Spirit of God, rule and reign in my life (Ps.51:10).

Rule and reign in my thoughts, my attitudes, my emotions, my feelings (2 Cor. 10:5).

In every area, Spirit of God, I seek first Your kingdom and give You permission to rule and reign (Matt. 6:33).

And I pray against every strategy of the evil one to rob my joy, faith and courage, and ask You to render every one of those unholy strategies ineffective, in the name of Jesus.

Amen (Eph. 6:10-13).

• Bathe yourself in worship music. He inhabits the praises of His people. Worshiping Him changes our perspective and softens our hearts towards Him.
• Surrender all your fears, doubts, anxieties, loneliness and every other negative emotion to Him. Tell Him how you feel. He already knows it, but He wants to hear you admit your struggle. Don't be afraid to lament. Cry out as David did, pour out your heart to Him, for He is your refuge (Ps. 62:8).

3. What sabotaging thoughts (lies) do Believers need to release that keep them in bondage to negative emotions? 

• Lie #1: God doesn't really care about you.
• Lie #2: You'll never measure up to what He expects.
• Lie #3: The world is a scary place and God isn't concerned with the details of your life

4. What are some things believers can do at the "moment of decision" when they are tempted to practice destructive behavior when emotionally upset?

• Bind every strategy of the unholy realm that would try to influence you towards destructive behavior, in Jesus' name.
• Loose the mind of Christ and His peace to flood your mind, will and emotions, in Jesus' name (Matt. 16:19).
• Turn on worship music and sing out loud.
• Surrender fully to God and ask Him to change your emotions and give you the mind of Christ.

FROM JACOB TO ISREAL.

FROM JACOB TO ISREAL.

posted Aug 20, 2016, 4:40 AM by Austin Chinedu   [ updated Aug 20, 2016, 4:46 AM ]

FROM  JACOB TO ISRAEL.  Genesis 32:26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me. Genesis 32:27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob. Genesis 32:28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. 👉WHAT GOD REVEALED TO HOSEA    Hosea 12:3-4.  He took his brother by the heel in  the womb, And in his strength he struggled with God. 4 Yes, he struggled with the Angel and prevailed; He wept, and sought favor from Him. He found Him in Bethel, And there He spoke to us— 5 That is, the Lord God of hosts. The Lord is His memorable name. 👉Not everyone lives to fulfill their destiny  to the Full.  Jesus talk about different folds of blessings, there are 60 folds, 100 folds, even 1 fold. Many ended in the grave with 1fold blessing.    👉     LIFE OF JACOB.  Jacob and Israel are two different Stages of life...  Jacob represents a life without grace,  A life of struggling without ACHIEVEMENT   A life full of Disapointment. . . A life of wanderer with out establishments.  As a Christian either you choose to live as  Israel or remain as Jacob.  👉JACOB KNOWS WHAT GOD HAS SAID CONCERNING HIS LIFE.  With all his faults and vices he yet was spiritually sensitive; he responded to the approaches of his God concerning things of a value wholly spiritual - future good, moral and spiritual blessings.  Genesis 25:23 And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger. Genesis 32:12 And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude . 👉JACOB CROSS OVER JORDAN WITH JUST A STAFF ,BUT GOD MADE HIM BECAME TWO COMPANIES.. (Gen 32:9) 👉PROPHECY :  MAY GOD TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE  FROM NOBODY TO SOMEBODY OF VALUE , COMMANDING RESPECT. FROM NOTHING TO  SOMETHING.  FROM ORDINARY MAN TO ETRA-ORDINARY MAN.  👉BUT THERE IS SOMETHING MORE ABOUT MY LIFE.  👉ORDAINED BY GOD FROM THE WOMB.  A People.. A Nation... Great As The Sand Of The Sea... Greater Than Esau. 👉PROPHECY : THE WORD OF PROPHECY OVER YOUR LIFE WILL FAIL,  THE WORD OF GOD CONCERNING YOUR GLORIOUS DESTINY WILL NOT RETURN VOID.  He became uncomfortable with his present condition  and the fear of Esau made him  position himself for a change..  👉LEFT ALONE WITH GOD . A NIGHT OF TRAVAIL.. 🙏 SPIRITUAL TRAVAIL.  no one encounters divine visitation without spiritual travail , Apostles travail for 10days..  Jesus told them, tarry until you are endued..  Jesus born of the Holy Ghost travail for 40days.  . Jacob travail for hours...  👉HE WRESTLE WITH GOD, HE WEPT AND SOUGHT FAVOR FROM HIM. Hos 12:4 Jacob wrestled for empowerment and fulfillment.  Christianity without empowerment is a risk.  👉Maybe you have been working since the beginning of this year, and nothing is happening to prove your efforts. WRESTLING WITH THE ANGEL THAT CARRIES YOUR BLESSING.  When Jacob began to pray, a man appeared to him, the angel of his blessings,  "Unless you bless me.".  👉WHAT IS YOUR NAME...  👉WHEN GOD WANT TO MAKE A MAN GREAT HE GIVES HIM A NAME THAT CARRIES HIS SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS.  When God wanted to blessed Abram, he changed his name to ABRAHAM. GENESIS 17:5 Sarai to Sarah  Genesis 17:15-16 Simeon to Peter  Mark 3:16 Saul to paul 👉YOU SHALL NO MORE BE CALLED JACOB BUT ISRAEL..                FIRE  PRAYER . 👉DEALING WITH THE SPIRIT OF DELAY  1. Every power causing things to slow down in my Life, scatter by fire in Jesus name.  2. O lord arise, release my breakthrough from the cage of delay   3. You strange power forcing my Life backwards, be consumed by Fire.  👉DEALING WITH DEMONIC INTERVENTION.  4. Every problem assigned to abort my success, divert my testimony, die in Jesus name.  👉DEALING WITH POWERS FROM YOUR FATHERS HOUSE.  5.Every evil Pattern oppressing  my Life And family scatter by fire..   6.I break loose From every circles of working without achievement in Jesus name.  7. Every fetish power repeating problems In my Life, burn to ashes. 👉DEALING WITH POWERS SAYING YOU SHALL NOT GO FAR. Exodus 8:28. And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me. 8. Fire from above Consume every Calendar of darkness Controlling my blessing each month.... 9. Isaiah 14:5 Every staff of the Wicked ruling my family from Season to Season, your authority is over today....die.. 10. Every satanic  voice placing limitation over my business, die in the name of Jesus.  11. Every attack lunch against me from the market Square, back fire in Jesus name.

THE TABERNACLE AND ITS BELONGINGS FORESHADOW CHRIST.

The Tabernacle, : Typical Significance. It is easy to see in the New Testament That the tabernacle and its belongings were considered as typical. However, it is doubtful if many of those who worshipped at the door of The tabernacle of the congregation saw beyond the bleeding victim and Smoking sacrifice. With the light of Jesus Christ shed upon the history Of the past, we can safely say that the law and tabernacle considered As a whole, prefigured or foreshadowed good things to come (Hebrews 8:1-5 Hebrews 9:1-10; Hebrews 10:1).

- The court was a type of the world (Exodus 27:9-18; Revelation 11:1,2);

- 

- the laver was a type of Christ (Exodus 30:18-21; 1 John 1:7; 1 Peter 1:22);

- 

- the holy place was a type of the Church (Exodus 26:33; Hebrews 8:2);

- 

- the showbread was a type of Christ (Exodus 40:4; Leviticus 24:5-9; Matthew 28:20; John 6:48-63);

- 

- the candlestick was a type of Christ and the light of the gospel in the Church (Exodus 40:7; Leviticus 24:1,2; John 1:4-9; John 3:20,21; 2 Corinthians 4:4-6);

- 

- the altar of incense was a type of our worship (Exodus 30:1-10; Malachi 1:11; Revelation 8:3);

- 

- the second vail was a type of the dividing line between the Church and heaven (Exodus 26:39; Hebrews 10:19-21);

- 

- the holy of holies was a type of heaven (Exodus 26:33; Hebrews 9:24);

- 

- the mercy seat was a type of our mercy seat which is in heaven (Exodus 25:10-22; 1 Timothy 2:5,6; Hebrews 4:14-16);

- 

- and the light that filled the tabernacle was a type of the Holy Spirit who fills the Church (Exodus 40:33-38; 1 Corinthians 3:16,17). 

O LORD SETTLE MY CASE.!

LORD FIGHT FOR ME.

The Lord will preserve him and keep him alive, and he will be blessed on the earth; You will not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
- Psalm 41:2

St. Luke 5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
St. Luke 5:5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.
St. Luke 5:6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.
THROUGH OUT THE NIGHT PETER CAUGHT NOTHING.
THE NIGHT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE THE BEST TIME TO CATCH, THEIR SEASON OF BREAKTHROUGH, BUT IT TURNS OUT THE WORST NIGHT.
Psalms 30:5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
