For Love Sake
Rom. 5:8 (AMP) “But God clearly shows and proves His own love for us, by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
God wants you to be His friend. He is not interested in religion. God wants a relationship with you. Do you know why you are here right now and not six feet under? Do you know why you are not in other horrible places that you could possibly be in today? Read the rest of this entry
New Life
Rom 8:13 (MSG) “The best thing to do is give it a decent burial and get on with your new life.”
Rom. 3:23-24 “For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God, in his grace, freely makes us right in his sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.” (emphasis added). Read the rest of this entry
Done Vs. Do
Gal. 2:20 (KJV) I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”
The better life that Jesus offers is a life not only filled with meaning, It Is A Life That Is Freed By Grace. What is grace? I like to use an equation for grace and it is; Grace = favour + mercy. A life freed [set free] by grace is a life freed by favour and mercy. Read the rest of this entry
The New, The Overflow
Luke 5:37-38 “And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the new wine would burst the wineskins, spilling the wine and ruining the skins. New wine must be stored in new wineskins.”
Get excited because God is taking away ‘The Old’ in order to establish ‘The New’. God is on your side and God is all that you need. For someone today, God Himself is giving you a new name. The Lord God is giving you a new name. Read the rest of this entry
Amazing Grace!
1 Pet. 2:21 “For God called you to do good, even if it means suffering, just as Christ suffered for you. He is your example, and you must follow in his steps.” (emphasis added).
When we examine the period of Jesus’s punishment (death, burial, and resurrection), it gives us a model by which the resurrection power can come alive in our own lives too. Read the rest of this entry
Amazing Grace
2 Tim.1:9 “For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was his plan from before the beginning of time—to show us his grace through Christ Jesus.”
The next prophecy we would be examining is, the Messiah would be falsely accused. The prophecy is in Ps.35:11 “Malicious witnesses testify against me. They accuse me of crimes I know nothing about.”Note that this prophecy is different from the betrayal. Read the rest of this entry
Color Catcher
Matt.11:28 “Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.”
Shepherds are to sheep what the goatherd is to goats. Have you ever seen a goatherd? I saw one once when I was serving in Northern Nigeria. That day, we were evangelizing from village to village, Read the rest of this entry
Is He?
Ps.23:1 “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” [NKJV, with emphasis]
The first question Psalm 23 [please read] confronts us with is, who is your shepherd? David categorically says the Lord is my shepherd. You and I need to answer this question for ourselves, who is your shepherd? Read the rest of this entry
Letting Go!
John 1:14 (NKJV) “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
Grace comes to you when you submit and accept that God is wiser than you are. When you submit to the truth, the grace to be saved comes to you. The grace for prosperity will come to you when you submit to God’s truth. Read the rest of this entry
By Grace
Eph. 2:8 (NRSV, with emphasis) “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God”
Over the next few days we are going to be looking at an aspect of being unstoppable that is usually overlooked even by Christians. Humility is a very powerful component in being unstoppable, Read the rest of this entry
