Do you know the Grace of Jesus?

 


1 CORINTHIANS 8: 9

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.

You should know, do not be left out. It is only when you know that one is counted in and be saved.

John 8:31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. John 8:32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

Verse 31 you are counted in as you become disciples.

Verse 32 you are saved as you will be set free.

4. Know Jesus’ Grace

Grace is a gift for all people. You can choose to miss the Grace God is offering or take the offer and be saved.

Isa 26:10 Though grace is shown to the wicked, they do not learn righteousness; even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil and regard not the majesty of the LORD.

Jonah 2:8 “Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs.

It is therefore your choice to be part of the Grace or not.

5. God’s Grace

God the father is the first to show and give us His Grace.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

God chose to lose His one and only son to win the world.

6. Jesus’ Grace

Look He was rich but chose to be poor to make me and you the benefactors of His Grace.

Phil 2:5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus. Phil 2:9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, Phil 2:10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, Phil 2:11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father

Jesus took my sins, lowered Himself to free me and you. Jesus knew that He would have them all He lost because of His father’s Grace.

7. What is Grace then?

Grace is willingly losing part of your life for your brother to gain it back later. If you cannot lose, you will not be covered by Grace.

Live like Christ focus on His attitude. Give, offer yourself as a living sacrifice to save others with your money, strength and even your wisdom.

Phil 2:5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.

Grace is gained by adopting the life of Jesus. You feel pain, you lose to gain what your life depends on.

Don't let him overwhelm you

  The Bible says Satan is like a roaring lion therefore he is not a roaring lion. His roaring has a purpose, to scare you and cause fear and panic. According to Matthew 4: 8 - 10, Satan claims that all the glory of the world and it's beauty in it belongs to him.  Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Be gone, Satan! For it is written,“‘You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.’ You see now that everyone can give only that which belongs to him. The world belongs to Satan and he gives to those who love him and worship him knowingly or unknowingly. Brother Job feared the roar of Satan guess what all that he was afraid of, came upon him. Watch this, For the things that I feared has come upon me, and what I dread befalls me. I am not at ease, nor am I quiet; I have no rest,...

Temptation to a Christian

 Matthew 4: 1 - 3 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the       wilderness to be tempted by the devil. And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” From this verses we see Jesus being led by the Holy Spirit to be tempted by the devil. Should we say everyone who is being tempted by evil is always led by the Holy Spirit? What is temptation? According to James 1: 2 temptation are trials of many kind. Troubles or problems that falls on all people. Everyone whether one likes or not is mental to face trials, problems. According to Jesus everyone will face hard times we see this on John 16: 33, "I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world." Who leads men to be tempted? Here we have two ways. Some are led by the Holy Spirit yet some ar...

Man of God you are God's temple

 We have a real problem when it comes to pastors accepting that they need hospitals to treat whatever sickness they have. The work of God is good and as men of faith, pastors needs to believe that hospital and church are one. Because they both work for the common good of the society. The problem comes when the pastor is obesity and does not want to know how his blood pressure is. In Africa most of the pastors die with blood pressure and sugar because they believe in super power God. They don't have interest of knowing their blood pressure and sugar. The Bible is the word of God to train us into believing that we are the temple of God. Therefore we have the responsibility of taking care of our body.  Pastors do not need to eat everything but be selective of what you are eating and even the amount. Man of God remember this God will hold you accountable for failing to take care of His temple which is you.
