Because of Christ-7

[Apostle Cynthia Agbuye]

Stripe 31 Because of Christ We Are Born-Again Regenerated:
Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, ne cannot enter the kingdom of God. The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. John 3:5,8 NKJV
not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, Titus 3:5 NKJV
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves him who is begotten of Him. 1 John 5:1 NKJV
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV
Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. 1 John 3:9 NKJV
If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him. 1 John 2:29 NKJV
In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother. 1 John 3:10 NKJV
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world our faith. 1 John 5:4 NKJV
Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. For he who has died has been freed from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no linger has dominion over Him. For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, he lives to God. Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:4-11 NKJV
Stripe 32 Because of Christ we have Humility:
Then God said to him: "Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked long life for yourself, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice, "behold, I have done according to your words; see, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has not been anyone like you before you, nor shall any like you arise after you. "And I have also given you what you have not asked: both riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days. "So if you walk in My ways, to keep My status and My commandments, as your father David walked then I will lengthen your days. 1 Kings 3:11-14 NKJV
By humility and fear of the LORD are riches and honor and life. Proverbs 22:4 NKJV
"if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. "Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place. 2 Chronicles 7:14-15 NKJV
For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Isaiah 57:15 NKJV
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up. James 4:10 NKJV
But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble. James 4:6 NKJV
Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders, Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble. 1 Peter 5:5 NKJV
I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, Ephesians 4:1-2 NKJV
Stripe 33 Because of Christ We Have Prosperity:
He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. Psalm 1:3 NKJV
O Lord, I pray, please let Your ear be attentive to the prayer of Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants who desire to fear Your name; and let Your servant prosper this day, I pray, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." For I was the king's cupbearer. Nehemiah 1:11 NKJV
So I answered them, and said to them, "The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build, but you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem. Nehemiah 2:20 NKJV
Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, "Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant." Psalm 35:27 NKJV
Stripe 34 Because of Christ We Have Eternal Life:
"And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. John 17:3 NKJ
But Simon Peter answered Him, “ Lord , to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. John 6:68 NKJV
On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks- John 6:22-23 NKJV
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. John 5:24 NKJV
but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life. John 4:14 NKJV

youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 2 Timothy 2:22 NKJV

Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you. 2 Corinthians 13:11 NKJV
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, Romans 5:1 NKJV
and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross. Colossians 1:20 NKJV
