Words of Grace-Every need is supplied in Christ

Words of Grace-Believe in Christ, even if it doesn't make sense.

                            Believe in Christ, even if it doesn't make sense.

                                                   John 20:19-29

After Jesus resurrected, he appeared to some of the believers including his disciples who had locked themselves in a room, all  for the fear of the Jews. But Jesus dealt with their fears and even the unbelief heart of Thomas. It was hard for Thomas to believe Jesus but he came to the level of Thomas and dealt with his unbelief heart.

Thomas wanted to see Jesus in person. See the scars, touch and feel him before he would believe. We can say, according to Thomas,  faith must be sensible, logic and evident based which isn't so.

To believe the works of someone you have not seen is not easy. Especially to die and resurrects after three days. it takes grace to believe. That's why Jesus pronounced blessings on those who did not witnessed his resurrection and still believe him. Brethren Jesus blessed you and I long before  according to his word, because we didn't witnessed and yet we believe. Today because of your absolute faith in Christ, you are much more blessed and his goodness follows you all your lifetime. Shalom.

Words of Grace-Fear not

Words of Grace-Have no fear,for Jesus is in the midst

                                Have no fear, for Jesus is in the midst
                                   
                                  John 20:19-24, 1John 4:18, Tim 1:7

However you feel, whether unsafe or uneasy you can chose to be at peace because of Christ. The wonderful part of it all is that, the peace that we enjoy is not an absence of hardship in the system but in the midst of these tough moments we can still have no fear if we trust in God, the controller of all situations.

God always wants us to feel safe and not harboring fears, because fear can retard our progress. So Jesus after his resurrection appearing to his disciples who were fearful of the Jews, he said, peace be unto you.

The best way to deal with your fear is to have the sense of Christ and his love for you, for there is no fear in the love of God.This day, Say to yourself no matter the situation I will not fear. I'm on top of what I  do because I'm an outcome of grace. Continue in the grace to enjoy the peace of God for a successful day. Shalom!

Words of Grace-Be still

Words of Grace-Dont fall out of grace

                                                   Don't fall out of grace

                                                 Galatians 5:4-6, 3:13

The Bible records, when the right time came Christ was made a sacrificial lamb for our sins, liberated us totally from the Jewish rules which profited us of no salvation. Why then still stick to those rules and not the spirit which is the  grace of God? If we are led by those laws we're making Christ of no effect in our lives. And for that matter we fall from the grace by which we got saved.

Apostle Paul pointed out to the believers in Galatians to be wary of legalism and being led by self effort for justification. This makes the finished work of Christ of no effect in their lives. For If that is the way to go, could any man then save and sustain himself? No!

Brethren, we were not saved by grace to be bound by the Mosaic law. But we are to be led by same grace that saved us. This make Christ's finished work effective in our lives. So hold onto the grace, the spirit of God, that gives eternal security to all those who believe in Christ. Shalom

Words of Grace-The living man reigns

                                        The living man reigns
                                 Gen 2:7, 15, John 19:30, Rom 8:2

God breathed into the man the breathe of life and he became a living being. That's any soul void of the breathe of God, is dead till there's encounter with God through Christ. The encounter with Christ gives us the spirit of  God. This spirit is the same breathe of life that made the man a living being. God always desires to have us alive in himself according to the riches of his grace so we could exercise power even unto the ends of the earth.

Its clear that the first living man lived the much more life in the beginning. Work completed by God, just as salvation completed in Christ. It was finished! The work of the living man only pointed to guarding the finished work. There was no struggle in being a living man then.That was how the first living man lived till his fall. Since then it has always been man's effort in the hard way in making an ends meet.

This morning as new creation tell yourself in faith that because I'm found in Christ i have the breathe of life and for that matter I'm a  living man or woman of God. And as the living man lived then, so I'm now dominant in every where I'm found. Amen. Shalom.
