GRACE & REALITY THROUGH CHRIST

John 1:17: For the law was given through Moses; But God’s unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ. 

The ministry of Moses unveiled to us the knowledge of the law.

Moses showed us the law but not the reality of the revelation of God.

Hebrew 7:19: For the law made nothing perfect and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.

A better hope “Jesus Christ” came to draw us near to God

Jesus Christ said in John 14:6

I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the father except through me.

The law showed us how sinful and broken we were (Romans 3:20),

But Grace made us to understand that;

We are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that we may declare the praises of him who called us out of darkness into his wonderful light (1 Peter 2:9)

When Christ came, instead of reminding us of our sin and brokenness, he gave us insights on how to mend our ways and fix our brokenness. He helped us to realize the character of the father and shaped our mind to grasp the personality of God.

Instead of Jesus Christ allowing us to go through life alone with the burden of sin as in Romans 6:23,

He showed us how to experience true forgiveness, how to connect with the father.

He made us to unravel that being good and doing good deeds cannot save us, but by the grace of God (Eph 2:8-9)

the scripture unveil to us that genuine salvation is entirely of God and not a result of good deeds.

“You were saved by grace through your faith in God who treats you much better than you deserve. This is God’s gift to you, and not by anything you have done on your own”

Why are you struggling to access what Christ died for?

Christ paid the price of your salvation in full.

You do not have to do anything to be save but to acknowledge the sacrifices he made on the cross for you.

Just connect with your redeemer today.

It is a new day for you.

YOUR SEED IS YOUR FUTURE

Image
Everything in the Kingdom of God is seed based and your time of sowing is critical to your success in life .  Eccl 11:6 Make us to understand that the morning time is predominantly the right time for sowing . No wonder Jesus Christ said in John 9:4  I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work Jesus was a driven  leader who did not squander or waste his time here on earth but made the most of it. There’s a time for everything and that time does not  wait for anyone. Whatever knowledge you fail to acquire now may hunt you tomorrow so why the wait,while not make that move today and get that skill, develop that character, build that relationship...there is nothing that can stop a man with  purpose. Every of our thought, emotion, motive, words and deeds are seeds which must generate, spring up, and bear fruit in our hearts and lives in our hearts , in this time and in eternity. Our ...

Your Thought Pattern Determines Your Life Pattern.

Nobody ever outgrows his/her thinking pattern Let’s reflect on this, someone without any ailment symptom visits the hospital for a routine medical check up and in the process discovered that he/She has a life threatening disease, immediately they starts to emaciate as times goes on, they are terrified , due to continuous pondering on the information about the ailment, but this was the same persons that was healthy, living well and going about their normal routine, but the discovery has changed their thought patterns and they began to think like a sick person. And you know, One of the main functions of the brain is to disseminate information to all the organs of the body about your new state of mind and the body begins to function in that capacity.  That’s why the Bible says let the weak says I am strong.... Because when you think weakness it will show in your body and you will begin to act weak, but when you think strength, your body system responds to your thought. ...

The Force Of Obedience

Abraham left the comfort and security of Ur to obey the call of God. Without hesitation, he "obeyed and went." He is known for this immediate step of obedience. Abraham's spiritual experience was marked by four difficult steps of obedience that showed the strength of his trust in God: He left his country and family (Genesis 12:1). He broke up with his nephew Lot, offering Lot his choice of land (Genesis 13:1-18). He changed his focus from Ishmael to Isaac for the center of God's promise (Genesis 17:17-18). He was willing to offer up Isaac, his only son (Genesis 22:1-19). Abraham did not choose the easy way in these situations-because of his faith in God, he chose God's way and obeyed him, even when obedience was difficult. His faith is an example for all of us. Paul uses Abraham as the central theme in Romans 4 concerning justification by faith and describes him as "the father of all who believe" (Romans 4:11). Abraham was God's friend (Jame...
