YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF GOD’S DEFINITION

YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF GOD’S DEFINITION – IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR HUMAN QUEST: IT WILL VALIDATE YOUR LIFE “LINES” – AND MAKE YOU TO BECOME AND TO BE FULFILLED! 

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS: 35 but in EVERY NATION he that FEARETH him, and WORKETH RIGHTEOUSNESS, is ACCEPTED with him” Acts 10:34-35  

Until an individual begins to ACCEPT the TRUTH in any life subject CONTEXT of what God has MADE, QUALIFIED and DEFINED them to be in life and grace in Him, they will keep LEARNING, WONDERING and WANDERING through IGNORANCE, STUPIDITY and FOOLISHNESS, and in circles and circus. For it is a person without UNDERSTANDING in God’s CONTEXT that goes about wandering and transgressing against the TRUTH that only God owns and can provides to do life and godliness in Christ Jesus’ stead. 

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING (GODLY WISDOM) shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION (ASSEMBLY) OF THE DEAD” Proverbs 21:16 (Emphasis Mine). 

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the WAY OF TRANSGRESSORS is HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine). 

The fallacy of not accepting God’s definition has led many to an earnest and outrageous cravenness for self-discovery through learning, wondering and wandering to SEARCH for ANSWERS and then FULFILLMENT. However, such intent has made some delusional and driven them away from the path God made for them to BECOME both in LIFE and GODLINESS when they accept God’s truthful definition of them. Unfortunately, because of such derailing, ignorance has shut them off from God and from knowing there is already a GIVEN for them in REDEMPTION; and their fulfilment is enacted as one ACCEPTS God’s own definition of oneself, instead of going about fighting for human LEGISLATION, HYPE and APPLAUSE to be defined, accredited and validated by verdicts that are only a vague, satisfactory definition. 

“He has MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL and APPROPRIATE in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11. Amplified. 

When you CANNOT ACCEPT what God has MADE and QUALIFIED you to be in LIFE and GODLINESS, – that is, to BE for example, a MAN or WOMAN, WIFE or HUSBAND, MALE or FEMALE – you will keep ever SEARCHING for an ANSWER where there is none, in order to be fulfilled and fit into the bubbled statuesque for others to APPLAUD rather than what God has APPROVED of you. 

“For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 EVER LEARNING, AND NEVER ABLE TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also RESIST THE TRUTH: MEN OF CORRUPT MINDS, REPROBATE CONCERNING THE FAITH” 2 Timothy 3:6-8. 

Some people call it FREEDOM, HUMAN RIGHTS, GENDER RIGHTS and such like, but the Scriptures call it FOOLISHNESS and PURE IGNORANCE, A REPROBATE MINDSET that leads to boundless BONDAGES with severe adverse consequences as detailed in Romans 1:18-32 (AKJV/LB/Amplified/Message). 

Unfortunately for an individual and for society, when the EFFECTS and CONSEQUENCES start, most forget the PATH that brought them there. Instead they CREATE and INVENT further bubble routes in search of solutions to the predicament that has resulted – which in time becomes a serial entanglement in a chain-like mode. That is the reason there is unstable state in human history and unfulfilled aspirations and the QUEST for so many misguided intents and some crazy pursuits to satisfy and fill up the void in humans as we see in individuals, families, relationships, businesses, governments and non-governmental agencies, various world organisational bodies and many such like. 

Have you ever given a thought to ask aloud or in silence why there are so many human troubles around in spite of all these world-renowned Bodies (Association/organisation) and innumerable Charitable causes, Commissions and Foundations such as UNITED NATIONS (UN), HRM, NATO, WHO, UNESCO, ECOWAS, EU, AU, TPU, TAU and many such like? 

It is for the lack of ACCEPTANCE to God’s gracious intent for man that somebody can oppress and enslave fellow human beings, call other fellow human beings terrible foul names, marry a pet, endeavour to change gender, marry someone of the same gender, create and invent some unimaginable ideas and things which, on the long run, begin to destroy the very purpose that was ignored and misguided in the name of FREEDOM, SUPERIORITY and LUST (spelt LOVE) and such like. 

I make bold to say that there is FULFILMENT in God’s definition and intent – in being a Woman or Wife in God’s term. Same is applicable to the men folk – being a Man or Husband in God’s terms. Meaning, being made MALE or FEMALE in God’s terms is the ultimate fulfilment in creation. And it is God’s best and intent. For He MADE them SO, and BLESSED them SO. For in Christ Jesus there is no right to make any less of what God has defined and made them BE – that is, to BECOME in Him. All we need as humans is to be PRINCIPLED, RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE to the ACCEPTANCE of God’s DEFINITION in His BLESSEDNESS. Anything short leads to more crises for humanity. 

Think of all the rebellious acts you might have put up which are vividly contradictory to God’s WORD in order to get the APPLAUD and ATTENTION you crave; can you be emboldened to say you have now found FULFILMENT within or has it led you to fight for all causes to satisfy that VOID and EMPTINESS that are within you? 

I plead with you in Christ Jesus’ stead today, to ACCEPT what God in Christ Jesus has MADE you to BECOME in Him, in order to find FULFILMENT for your VOID with Him, and in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“The man that WANDERETH out of THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING (GODLY WISDOM) shall REMAIN in the CONGREGATION (ASSEMBLY) OF THE DEAD” Proverbs 21:16 (Emphasis Mine). 

“GOOD UNDERSTANDING GIVETH FAVOUR: but the WAY OF TRANSGRESSORS is HARD (DIFFICULT, UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 13:15 (Emphasis Mine). 

“EVER LEARNING, and NEVER ABLE to come to the KNOWLEDGE of the TRUTH” 2 Timothy 3:7. 

“Not that we are SUFFICIENTLY QUALIFIED in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our SUFFICIENCY and QUALIFICATIONS come from God. 6 He has QUALIFIED us [making us sufficient] as ministers of a new covenant [of salvation through Christ], not of the letter [of a written code] but of the Spirit; for the letter [of the Law] kills [by revealing sin and demanding obedience], but the Spirit gives life” 2 Corinthians 3:5-6 (Amplified). 

“Study to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15. 

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22. 

“The Lord is the PORTION of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou MAINTAINEST my lot. 6 The LINES are FALLEN unto me in PLEASANT PLACES; yea, I have a GOODLY HERITAGE” Psalms 16:5-6. 

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath GIVEN unto us all things that PERTAIN unto LIFE and GODLINESS, through the knowledge of him that hath CALLED us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are given unto us exceeding great and PRECIOUS promises: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4. 

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE, in the image of God created he him; MALE AND FEMALE created he them. 28 And God BLESSED THEM, and God said unto THEM, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28. 

“For the WRATH of God is REVEALED from heaven against all UNGODLINESS and UNRIGHTEOUSNESS of men, who hold the TRUTH in unrighteousness; 19 because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are WITHOUT EXCUSE: 21 because that, when they KNEW God, they GLORIFIED him NOT as God, neither were THANKFUL; but became VAIN in their imaginations, and their FOOLISH heart was darkened . . . 28 And even as they did not like to RETAIN God IN THEIR KNOWLEDGE, God gave them over to a REPROBATE mind, to do those things which are NOT CONVENIENT . . . 32 who knowing the judgment of God, that they which COMMIT such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have PLEASURE in them that do them” Romans 1:18-32. 

Further Scriptural Reading Text: Romans 1:18-32. (AKJV/LB/Amplified/Message); Ephesians 5:21-33; Act 17:24-32. 

SUMMARY 

The message opens with a bold declaration: your acceptance of God’s definition is the answer to the human quest for meaning. Using Acts 10:34-35, it establishes that God accepts everyone in every nation who fears Him and works righteousness — without partiality. 

It then warns that until a person accepts what God has MADE, QUALIFIED and DEFINED them to be in life and grace, they will remain trapped in cycles of LEARNING, WONDERING and WANDERING in ignorance, stupidity and foolishness. Without God’s context of understanding, people transgress against the only truth that gives life and godliness. Proverbs 21:16 and 13:15 are used to show that wandering from godly wisdom leads to death and hardship, while good understanding gives favour. 

The fallacy of self-definition is exposed. Many pursue FREEDOM, HUMAN RIGHTS, GENDER RIGHTS and self-discovery to find answers and fulfilment. But this has made people delusional, driven them from God’s path, and shut them off from the redemption already given in Christ. Instead of accepting God’s definition, they fight for human legislation, hype and applause for validation — which are only vague and unsatisfactory. 

Ecclesiastes 3:11 and 2 Timothy 3:6-8 are cited to show that God has planted eternity and purpose in the human heart, yet people keep learning but never come to the knowledge of the truth because they resist it. Romans 1:18-32 is referenced as the consequence: a reprobate mindset that leads to bondage and severe effects. 

The message then addresses identity directly. Men and women, husbands and wives, male and female — fulfilment is found only in God’s terms, because that is how He MADE and BLESSED them. In Christ there is no reason to make less of what God defined. Humans must be PRINCIPLED, RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE to accept God’s definition and blessedness. Anything short produces crises. 

It closes with a plea: stop rebelling for applause and attention. Has that rebellion given you fulfilment, or has it deepened the VOID and EMPTINESS? The message pleads in Christ Jesus’ stead to ACCEPT what God has MADE you to BECOME, so you can find fulfilment in Him. 

The final section lists Scriptural Thoughts to Ponder — on understanding, sufficiency from God, being approved by God, God’s pleasant lines and heritage, divine power for life and godliness, creation of male and female, and the full warning of Romans 1. 

Key Points 

1. God’s Definition = Fulfilment 
   True identity and fulfilment come only from accepting what God MADE, QUALIFIED and DEFINED you to be — male/female, man/woman, husband/wife — in Christ. 
2. Rejection Leads to Cycles 
   Without God’s context, people wander in ignorance, foolishness and bondage, constantly searching but never finding truth. Proverbs 21:16, 2 Timothy 3:7 
3. World Systems Cannot Fill the Void 
   Rights movements, organisations, charities, and legislation cannot solve the human problem. The root issue is lack of acceptance of God’s gracious intent. 
4. Consequences of a Reprobate Mindset 
   Resisting truth leads to delusion, perversion, and severe consequences as described in Romans 1:18-32. 
5. God’s Approval Over Man’s Applause 
   Chasing human validation, legislation and hype produces only vague satisfaction. God’s approval is what validates your life “lines”. Psalms 16:5-6 
6. Sufficiency and Qualification Come From God 
   2 Corinthians 3:5-6 — We are not sufficient in ourselves. God qualifies us and gives divine power for life and godliness. 2 Peter 1:2-4 
7. The Call to Become 
   Accept what God in Christ Jesus has MADE you to BECOME. Be principled, responsible and accountable to His definition. That is where blessedness and fulfilment are found.
