Hebrews 4:2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard [it]. The grace of God upon man comes with the ability of man to believe. This is so essential that God would not drag us into anything if we refuse to believe. I believe as I have often taught that it is as a result of how God created us, "a replica of Himself here on earth". Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.” So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. This I call the power of choice, that is, not being forced into anything but be able to decide what we do. This thus makes us fully accountable. This is why when people say, "why...

Colossians 1:22 Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault. Today we remember Christ's death and resurrection! How great a redemption, paid with so such a great price. That we who were born in sin and rejected would now be presented to the Heavenly Father as HOLY, BLAMELESS and WITHOUT FAULT! That is what Yeshua Hamashiach, Jesus the Christ did for us. Halleluyah So when God looks at us He doesn't see our shortcomings or faults but He sees the perfect Christ. Glory. Can this be everyone's portion? Yes,  Jew or Gentile, no matter who we are. This grace is given to all who believe! Colossians 1:21 This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all ...

Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue [that] shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This [is] the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness [is] of me, saith the LORD. This prophecy made to the children of Israel long time ago is not limited to them but it applies to all that the Lord calls righteous, we understand that God's righteousness is in Christ Jesus. So we are called righteous by God in Christ Jesus. Glory. Are there battles, yes, most times we are not aware of them. Do we have to worry, NO, why? God sends His warring angels to fight these battles and most times we have No knowledge of it. When Christ died as we remember this season, He said it is finished. He paid the full price for our sins delivering us from the power of sin and death. He resurrected given us total victory over the enemy. So as He died, we died to sin and death and as He rose, we rise into everlasting life. Glory to God. G...

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, build up your strength in union with the Lord and by means of his mighty power. Where does your strength lie? After all said and done, one will need to prove where one's strength lies. Is it during times of challenges, trials, even in times of peace, much work or when one is at rest? Where your anchor is rested, will definitely be questioned and tested. David was a king with great military might and with soldiers who could give their life for him yet he said: Psalms 20:7& 8 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God. They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright. Isaiah said: Isaiah 31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! Be careful who and where you seek for help. The long term is important ...

Lamentations 3:22-23 The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. Psalms 5:3 My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Jehovah; in the morning I will direct my prayer to You, and I will look up. Can we exhaust the love of God towards us? No, for He makes it possible for us to: * be alive today * be in good health * have food and can eat * have sense organs and can use them * have people around us, and we can communicate with them * have something to act on (even worry about) * be saved through His Grace in Christ Jesus * come boldly to His throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16) . . . the list is endless! What of our family, source of income and many other things. He now crowns it all with eternal assurance for those who believe. What a great God. Hebrews 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. Can we take today...

1 Peter 1:8-9(NLT) You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls. Great things are conceived not by what has been seen but by what has not been seen. High flyers, achievers and inventors are not those who walk by what they see but those who have not yet seen but believed. So it is with the Heavenly Father we have not physically seen Him but we believe, for He has displayed Himself with every of His creation. Romans 1:19-20 They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God. These things are not a coincidence, just the same way our conception and birth is not a coincidence. This sa...
