TOPIC: WHY BIBLE SAINTS FOUND GRACE IN GOD’S SIGHT – Part 1
TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 2:19-21
Key verse: “And when He had removed him, He raised up unto them David to be their king, to whom also He gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after Mine own heart, which shall fulfill all My will.” Acts 13: 22

“I have found…” It is not easy even for God to find a man like this. I have found, means I have been looking for him. I searched for him and at last I found him. A man after Mine own heart, means his heart is on Me, and he will do all my pleasure. David was a man dedicated to God in life and service. He was bold and courageous and God put him to use as vessel of honour. The Bible gives us accounts of men and women that obtained favour before God. The Bible also shows us why some of these people found grace in God’s sight. God is the same in nature and attribute from the beginning of His revelation to man until now. There are things that provoke Him to judgment against men and there are things that provoke Him to love and make men obtain grace in His sight. We shall make some brief study of some Bible saints with emphasis on why they obtained grace in the sight of God.

(1.) ENOCH: It is not common, brother, sister. How many people were taken up by God like that? There was a reason why Enoch found grace in the sight of God. The Scripture gives it as follows: Enoch walked with God. Finding grace goes with righteousness. Thou lovest righteousness and hatest wickedness, therefore, God, thy God had anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
(2.) NOAH: It is not common to obtain this special grace that Noah had from the Lord. The grace of God indeed has appeared to all men, but not all men find it. Not all men find this special grace Noah found in the eyes of God. Why did Noah find grace in the eyes of the LORD? See what the Scripture says below of Noah. We can see by the Scripture that Noah found grace in the sight of God because his righteous and perfect life. Gen 7:1  And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

Thought for the day: The righteous enjoys the grace of God in abundance.
Song for the day: Give me the grace to follow, abundant grace to follow
Bible reading for the day:
1 Kings 19-20; John 2

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
