GRACE AND TRUTH FOR SALVATION AND ETERNAL LIFE
TEXT: Ephesians 2:8-9 
Key verse: John 1:14 "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Our God is a God of balanced understanding. His ways are perfect. To give wholeness to man, He gave him two eyes, two ears, two hands and two legs for balanced positioning. He made His human creature male and female for perfect blending and procreation. He also made animals male and female. The occupants of Noah’s ark were in twos; male and female for replenishment. 
Ephesians 2:8-9  8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:  9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
In Christianity, there is a pair of Grace and Truth that God gave for balanced Christianity. The church in our days majors only on grace and raised it above truth. Why do they emphasize grace? It is because grace is the kindness of God, the goodness of God and His mercy to mankind. By grace, you are saved from sin and delivered from Satan and the world. Some dwelled here [grace] alone. To them, everything is by grace only.
The second component of grace; In as much as you have understood that multiplication or reproduction was not left for the man alone; that man needed the woman to accomplish it, You are witness to yourself that you don't only have one ear, one eye, one hand and leg, that you need the second part of these pairs for your balance functioning. Grace has a pair that works with it for the actualization of human salvation and eternal life. This second pair is true.
For the law was given by Moses, but Grace and Truth came by Jesus Christ. There is power in this truth. The power to transform, regenerate and defeat the enemy is in the truth. Jesus is full of grace to bless your life and full of truth to impact your life. The law was until the time of John but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. In the Old Testament, you are commanded to keep the law. You must live by keeping the law, and many people failed. Grace came through Christ Jesus to show man God’s exceeding kindness to keep and perform His commandments. 
However, Jesus also came with the commandment. Otherwise, grace is wasted if there is no commandment to keep. If there is no work to do, then the assignment has no meaning. Grace becomes redundant when there is no truth to keep. Grace came to make the keeping of truth easy. That is why grace and truth go together. Two good heads are better than one 

Thought for today: Grace and Truth work together. Do not be one-sided
Song for the day: Amazing grace how sweet the sound…

Bible reading for the day: 
Joshua 7-8; Luke 2:25-52

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...
