TRUE GODLINESS



“For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;” 

Titus 2:11-12 (KJV)



The matter of Godliness is not a legalistic message but rather essential for the born again in Christ.

 
It is not a religious practice because it transcends religion. Neither is it an application of an outward list of rules and regulations.

Godliness is simply the expression of divinity.

Godliness (“eusebeia” from “eú” which means well and “sébomai” also means worship, venerate, pay homage); literally “well worship”.
 
This reflects an attitude of one’s life to live with a sense of God’s presence. Godliness is a sacred reverence exhibited especially in actions. The consecrating presence of God is conveyed into all the experiences of life by godliness.
 
We see the picture of godliness through Christ; how that, He made all behold the inexplicable reality of the divine life.
 
“No one has seen God [His essence, His divine nature] at any time; the [One and] only begotten God [that is, the unique Son] who is in the intimate presence of the Father, He has explained Him [and interpreted and revealed the awesome wonder of the Father].” John 1:18 (Amplified)
 
How did Jesus demonstrate, interpret and reveal the awesome wonder of the Father?
See what Brother Luke said here in Acts 1v1:
 
“To Theophilus, the lover of God.
I write to you again, my dear friend, to give you further details about the life of our Lord Jesus and all the things that he did and taught.
 
Through all the things that our Lord and Saviour Jesus did and taught, many beheld the glory of God.

Godliness is basically the demonstration of God’s nature, love, glory, joy and power to others. By this, we live a life pleasant to the Lord.

You speak like God and act as God. This is basically living as Christ in your sphere.
 
Do many see Christ in you?
 
Godliness is not living out your life. It is living out the quality of God’s life. It is the outflow of the increased life of God in you.
Until you decrease for Christ to increase in you; many will not see Christ.
 
Godliness is seen when you lay down your life for Christ to only spring forth and blossom in you.
 
You cannot fake true godliness.

True godliness is lived by the power of the transfused life of Christ.

Many ostensibly very “religious” people have an appearance of godliness, going through the motions of religion, but they don’t have the power to truly lay down their lives for Christ to blossom in them (See 2 Timothy 3:5).
 
By human standards, (just as the Pharisees and the Sadducees), there is a boxed-up interpretation of God and His expressions.
 
However, in Christ Jesus, we see that the revelation of God is beyond our human imagination. Thus, you can truly see God and express Him only by the power and revelation of Jesus Christ in you.

Until you behold and handle Christ Jesus, you cannot declare or express His life.

“We saw him with our very own eyes. We gazed upon him and heard him speak. Our hands actually touched him, the one who was from the beginning, the Living Expression of God. This Life-Giver was made visible and we have seen him. We testify to this truth: the eternal Life-Giver lived face-to-face with the Father and has now dawned upon us. So we proclaim to you what we have seen and heard about this Life-Giver so that we may share and enjoy this life together. For truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus, the Anointed One.” 1 John 1:1-3 (TPT).
 
Glory to God!
DIG DEEPER
(2 Peter 3:11; Genesis 5:24; 1 Timothy 4:8; 2 Timothy 3:12; Psalm 1:1-3; Micah 6:8; Titus 2:11-14)
 
WE PRAY
We pray that by the empowering ability of God’s Spirit we shall live and walk as godly on this earth, bearing Godly fruits unto God’s glory.

Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome!!!
I am glad to be reading this episode on Godliness.

Godliness is living out the quality of God’s life.
It is the outflow of the increased life of God in you.

Jesus demonstrated God to us in a vivid way that by Him, without defending that he is God, people worshipped Him. His life was a full expression of the divine.

I have been called into this life.

The Life of God is my calling, and its manifestation is the declaration of God sending me those I bless.

Thank you Jesus, I live and function with a deep consciousness and expression of the Life you have shared with me.

I am a reflection of God…the very presentation of God.

Knowledge (gnosis) is the main is most important. Until the eyes of one’s understanding is enlightened, he or she would always live in bondage. The book of 1 Corinthians 2 makes us know that if the Pharisees knew who Jesus truly was, they wouldn’t have killed him this makes the mystery of Godliness so great without controversy God came in flesh dwelt among us was seen of angels, preached unto the gentiles, received by the world and taken back in glory.

God always walked among them, but religion had blindfolded them to see him. Their carnal minds could not decode the revelation of Jesus, so they called him a carpenter’s son

so all they thought was that those laws they put on others neck was what proved their worth before God but had thicker webs in their caskets of which but pride will not make them submit their burdens to the one who is our rest (Jesus)
