THE PERFECTION MANDATE
Luke 6:40; Philippians 1:6
Luke 6:40; Philippians 1:6
Perfection is the process of constantly improving someone (or something) until the person (or thing) becomes faultless.
Perfection is a state of completeness and flawlessness. An unsurpassable degree of accuracy or excellence.
It is the highest degree of proficiency, skill, or excellence, as in a given field or discipline, career, business, profession, etc.
Perfection is synonymous with excellence.
It’s the resultant effect of pressing towards the mark for the prize of the high calling in Christ Jesus (Phil. 3:13-14).
It is consistently striving to know Him (Christ Jesus) and to be known of Him.
It is persistent hunger and unquenchable thirst for the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Matt. 5:6; 6:33).
It is persistent hunger and unquenchable thirst for the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Matt. 5:6; 6:33).
Receive the grace for perfection in the name of Jesus Christ. Henceforth, receive the grace to plug in to Jesus, and walk in the realm of spiritual excellence…
God appeared to Abraham when he was ninety-nine years old and told him, ‘I AM the Almighty God. Walk before Me and be perfect’ (Gen. 17:1).
In 2016, a walk with God is inevitable (i.e. unavoidable, inescapable, unpreventable) if we must attain perfection.
A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfect (fully trained, perfected, completely trained, or perfectly trained) will be like his teacher…
Are you ready for the training?
The LORD wants to enrol you into the School of the Spirit in 2016, are you ready?
The LORD wants to enrol you into the School of the Spirit in 2016, are you ready?
Truly, perfection starts from the heart. It is the resultant effect of becoming more and more like Jesus, through the ethical adjustment that occurs in our lives from time to time.
This ethical adjustment or paradigm shift is carried out in our lives by the Word of God.
If the Word of God cannot change your values (core values – belief system, ideology, perception to life, paradigm, mentality, etc.), He cannot change your value (social, economic/financial, resourcefulness, etc.)
If you can’t embrace God’s values, your life cannot portray any eternally significant value.

Total obedience to the Word of God guarantees Godly prosperity and good success (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1:1-3).
Moreover, absolute obedience to the Word of God ensures your spiritual growth and depth in the knowledge of Christ, until you mature to a perfect man, and to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ (Ephesians 4:13).
