How do you put on Jesus Christ? Trying to put on Jesus Christ is like going swimming without getting wet. You have to put on the Lord Jesus Christ as the scripture recommended.

The excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord is a tangible thing it is not just a group of words put together. It is one unit the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord Is the focal point. It is the agenda to be found in him. Him being Christ Jesus. It’s anchored on not having your righteousness, your education, or your financial status. This includes your works (humility, offerings, or faithfulness).

The song of Moses is commanded to be rehearsed to the generations to come after. The pre-incarnate form of the excellency was the power that capsized Pharoah’s army in the midst of the sea.

The Hebrew word Gaown (gaw-ohn) 1327 is a term that denotes excellency, majesty, pomp, pride, and swelling. Its root word Gaah (gaw-aw) 1342 is to mount up hence to rise, be majestic, glorious, grow up, increase, be risen, and triumph.

To form a mental image or concept of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord requires faith before it could be made tangible.

The key attribute of God is Faith. Of the many names of God. Faithfulness is interweaved into the dimensions of the character of God. The essence of God is unknown to us. At best the depths of God can be summed up into two realities that we as man know God is faithful and it is impossible for God to lie.

HOLY SPIRIT THE GREAT UNIFIER

Brotherhood is represented as a picture of the priest being anointed by the flow oil being poured upon his head. This priest acts as the fully functional representative of the human race endowed with to bring people together under the banner of Love. The Priest is the people’s representative to God. The Oil represents empowerment by God to remove difficulties that appear as mountains. When the oil flowed it did not skip over the breast plate and go to the fringe. When things divide us it stifles the power of God’s anointing to bring you out victorious.

A STORY TO TELL

My spiritual journey and ministry seek excellence in work and life. We seek to inspire faith and to build and lead people to a life pleasing to God. How does God use people to unify? We are living in a divisive time. Many of the people we admired in the past are going off script. With the information-age in full swing there are things that cause division. Yet, if we focus on what brings us together, we become better. One Family, One life, One God, One Church, and One Mission. TYPES OF DIVISION Things that Divide: Religion (Jew, Greek, Gentile, etc.), Politics, Social Economic Classifications, Fraternities and Sororities, Education, Vaccinated or not. Scripture denotes how Good and how, pleasant it is for brethren (family). To dwell (to live) together in unit.

MAKING IT RIGHT WITH GOD: The Qualifications of Holiness. 

Holiness is Beautiful. To conform to God’s qualifications, one must be holy. 

(This is the quality of oneness, completeness, and wholeness throughout one entire being, 

manifesting one true essence with all interactions with God and man).

PERFECTION

Strive to be perfect not in the sense of being flawless, but in a sense of lacking nothing. When you make it right with God (The All Sufficient One) He fills in the gaps of your deficits.

BIBLICAL PERSONALITIES

“Consider my servant Job.” God presented a man to the enemy. This was a great honor. Can God present you to the enemy as a shining trophy of grace? Making it right with God may be a lengthy process. To arrive in a position to get all the contrary strains that oppose godliness may take a lifetime (Moses). For some it may take a day (Isaiah). For Moses it took decades (40 years) and even after that when the right opportunity presented itself scripture reveals that he still had more work to do on a personal level.

FIRST BE RECONCILED TO YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS

Making it Right with God means first you have to make it right with man. The 12 Steps of AA includes making it right with those you have harmed. (#8) Made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all. Lastly, place yourself in environments that are good for your health (Mental health, physical health, and spiritual health).

God takes pleasure in your life God wants you to enjoy your life and to live free and become the best you possible.

But there is an enemy lurking about.

Not just one enemy there are several. You have …

Spiritual enemies

Natural Enemies

You have your own worst enemy.

UNDERSTANDING IS ESSENTIAL TO MANIFESTING VICTORIES  

The best example of this is when the Word of God became flesh.  Understanding is defined as a mutual agreement not formally entered into but in some degree binding on each side. Wisdom is the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment; the quality of being wise. Understanding and wisdom are used to carry on the function of living in a way that excels previous attempts at the same thing. The Fear of the Lord precedes understanding & wisdom. Therefore, as a prerequisite to spirituality, there exists a reverence for our creator. As a result, an atheist cannot attain understanding and certainly not wisdom. They may be able to observe measure and record data but this is not uncommon beasts in the animal kingdom. We must realize that we possess a spirit that needs to worship our Creator.     

JESUS WAS 100% God and 100% Man.   Yet, today many Christians portray a false advertisement of the original. A liar shall not enter into the presence of God. We must come to grips with our humanity, recognize our weaknesses and understand them, then defeat them and become victorious over our deficiencies. The false advertisement of a liar saying that they are a Christian shall not stand the test of time. So, continue to strive and accumulate small victories, not forgetting the importance of prayer.   

UNDERSTANDING YOUR KEY TO BREAKTHROUGHS | SEASON 13 EPISODE 7 | NOV 27, 2022 | BEREA COGIC | PASTOR RE BOSWELL

NATURAL WORK "Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought: but wrought with labor and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you." 2 Thess. 3:8

SPIRITUAL WORK "But he answered and said, it is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." Matthew 44

YUM IS GUIDED BY THE HIDDEN-HAND

There are two prominent forces. The spirit involves the internal realm, while

the natural involves the external. Both are necessary, yet the zeitgeist

(spirit of the times) beckons naturally against the will of the Spirit of God

speaking from within. While the one is flashy but nefarious the

other is plain and seeks to guide one into true worship.

A hidden hand appealing to your senses to satisfy your hunger

and thirst comes with gifts to take away from your unique path. This hidden hand

comes to lead you on a coward's journey a walk filled with fear intimidation and

the road away from the highway of holiness. Ultimately, a choice is rendered

and either a revolution is begun, or another follower is shoved into a broad road

that leads to destruction. 

Your Unique Ministry (YUM) effects change through being led, sourced, and

finally optimized by the Hidden-Hand of God. This is your fulfillment and so

many are depending upon you to follow God’s lead.

YOUR UNIQUE MINISTRY (YUM) | SEASON 13 EPISODE | NOV 6, 23,

2022 | BEREA COGIC | PASTOR RE BOSWELL

An enemy has the plan to destroy you. They want to spread lies. They want to assassinate your character. Kill your influence. Mute your voice. But God has already given you favor, and a king somewhere can't sleep until he blesses you and promotes you above your detractors.

BOSS PROBLEMS

At the onset of Esther (chapter six) Xerxes had a severe case of insomnia after there was an attempt made on his life. Xerxes tossed and turned upon his bed until he decided to arise and seek out the source of his frustration. Knowing who is for you (discerning those in your organization) is a major concern in leadership. Xerxes had to do some house cleaning.

CANCEL CULTURE

The people at the gate proceed to cancel Mordecai because he refused to bow when the Prime Minister rode by. The zeitgeist emerged to create an atmosphere of indignation against the people of God. The time will come when you will be threatened to serve whatever is popular in culture and bow to the flavor of the day or be made the villain.

REVELATION

Take the road that God has chosen you to tread. We know that people are changeable, and jobs and fortunes flee. The only thing that you have left that is a reliable source of consistency in your life is God.

SERVANTS WHO QUALIFY FOR ROYAL TREATMENT | SEASON 13 EPISODE 4 | OCT, 30, 2022 | BEREA COGIC | PASTOR RE BOSWELL

We are in constant warfare. God is a Spirit! 

Therefore. people need to be reminded daily, that we should be living toward the end of glorifying our Creator.  He Selected for himself people to carry the flame.  that ignited the rest of us. Ministry foreshadowed by the Levitical Priests who were our blueprint to serving God. As Our Creator chose the sons of Levi to be spiritual warriors.  They were trained to stand in the gap and defend the faith, taking blows and rendering judgement upon all who hated God. They used the Priestly Garments as Armor.  

THE PROMISED LAND 

Levi was scattered throughout Israel to offer Sacrifices, Offerings, and to attend the Altar. In the Promised-Land the Levites were provided God as a possession instead of physical land. During the Reign of Rehoboam, the Kingdom split. Soon after the Levites were expelled from the Northern Kingdom and migrated to the Judean countryside. The North soon fell into deep apostasy. Israel Lost its edge when it lost its preachers, but Judah retained hope.  

Today the same is happening as tolerance is on the rise spirituality is losing its mass appeal. The battle is the Lord’s but as the people of God begin to take on worldly standards wholesale replacing spiritual acumen with worldly trappings. If we follow the path that Israel took, we are doom to repeat the fate of the apostate and go into exile, being dispersed into a godless world. Take heed before we lose our position with God.
