 REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. 

GRACE AND TRUTH MUST GO TOGETHER

TEXT: JOHN 1:14, 17                                                            SATURDAY MARCH 5TH

Key verse: Colossians  1:6 -Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:

In as much as you understood that the multiplication on the earth was not left to the man alone, the man needed the woman. Since you also understood that you don’t have just one ear, but two. Although somebody standing by the right-hand side may see only one ear, the second one is somewhere. What is the thing that is a pair to grace? In the Old Testament, grace is mercy. What is the thing that attaches to that grace to make it a pair? That is true.

Can you see the second pair? Truth is the second pair; Jesus Christ was full of grace and truth. That same goodness, mercy, kindness, to do good to mankind, to bless the life of mankind; He was full of grace, kindness, mercy and above all the truth because power is in this perfect truth. The power to transform, to regenerate, to defeat the enemy, is in the truth. Thus, Jesus was full of grace to bless your life, full of truth to impart your life. The truth that works effectually in your life transforms your life and makes you a balanced Christian. The Bible says that the law was until John but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ the Righteous.

Titus 2:11-12

11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

In the Old Testament, the law did this, do that, and you were to live by them. You shall live when you do this or that and many people failed and the cry of man went up to God, then the Lord came in Christ to show man exceeding kindness, so that man will be able to keep and perform His commandments and enable man to do it. However, He must also come with the commandments, otherwise, grace is wasted. If there is no commandment to keep, grace is wasted. If there is no work to do, then the assignment has no meaning, you are redundant and grace becomes redundant when there is no truth to keep. Grace came to make the keeping of truth easy, to ease up the keeping of truth, to ease up the keeping of the commandments. That is why grace and truth go together.

Thought for the day: Stand on grace and truth for your balance in the Christian faith

Song for the day: Jesus only is our message…

Bible reading for the day:  Numbers 34-36; Mark 10:32-52

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...
