Why God's Grace Blesses US!!!!!!!!!!

Why God’s Grace is Such a Blessing To US”

 

 

Romans 5

Peace and Joy
1. What comes with God’s Grace?

1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we[a]have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

 

 

2through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we[b] rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

 

Where is the excitement and shouts of Joy that we are Saved and redeemed by the Grace, love and faith in our salvation, by simply believing that God did send his Son Jesus Christ to die on the Cross for all of Man’s sin!!!

 

We didn’t Deserve anything but God still gives us everything through God’s Grace!!!!!!

 

Grace is truly Amazing!!!!!

 

Why waste something when it is given to you freely.

 

IT is like when you have a talent in something and you choose to do nothing with it!

 

 

3Not only so, but we[c] also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope.

 

5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

 

Is there anything god has not given us through his Grace?

 

The trust and hope we have in God will never Disappoint us.

 

2. Do we Deserve Love from God?

6You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.

We are powerless when we live in Sin. But are empowered by God through his Grace to all things who Christ strengthens us!!!!!!!

7Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.

Why is it that today we are so quick to Judge?

Why is it today that it is so hard to find what we would call a true friend?

Is trust really that hard to come by?

Is no one willing sacrifice anything for the Glory of God to be made known through his gospel and testimony about who Christ is and was!

WE Owe God Everything But we Give him NOTHING!!!!!

God Gives us Grace and We Simply Ignore God and Neglect serving God when he calls us to do something!

8But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Shows how amazing God’s Grace Is, since we are sinners Christ still died for us on the Cross!!!!

9Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him!

We are Saved By God’s Grace of sending his son Jesus Christ to die on The Cross.

To Take the Beating and Condemnation and shame That we as Man Deserve!

10For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!

How much More do we need to see about God’s Grace?

What more will it take for man to see the importance and Blessing it is to have God’s Grace of Reconcilation?

11Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

Through God’s Grace we fortunate enough to have a Savior Like Jesus Christ who was willing to make the Ultimate sacrifice of all men to die on the Cross for the World’s Sin!!!!!!!!!

God’s Grace is Bigger than any sin or obstacle that is in one’s life.

 
Death Through Adam, Life Through Christ – Romans 5:12-21
Sin entered the world through Adam in Genesis and has been cleansed by the Death of Jesus Christ on the Cross!
3. Why do we continue to live in Sin?
4. If we Sin why Does God still Extend his Grace and Love to us?

12Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned— 13for before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law. 14Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.

15But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many! 16Again, the gift of God is not like the result of the one man's sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification. 17For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.

18Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. 19For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

God’s Grace bring the righteous Life even when don’t even deserve to get it.

We are Sinners, but Paul says one act of Righteousness can bring life through the gift of Grace!

Simply giving someone the benefit of the doubt.

 

20The law was added so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, 21so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

WE shouldn’t think that since we sin more Grace increases gives us the Freedom to take God’s Love For Granite.

WE Should live a life that is close to what Jesus Christ lived for God upto the point of where he was Crucified for Man’s Sin!!!

When the Going Get TOugh, All We Need Is Perseverance!!

Perseverance

 

Romans 5:3 (New International Version)

3Not only so, but we[a] also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;

Perseverance is a tough thing to build and hold at times when you are discouraged the most.

James 1:2-4

2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,

3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.

I know testing of the faith is a chore and difficult to handle even though in the end we recieve Perseverance and Victory.

The toughest thing is building up the strength and courage to overcome the trial and situation at hand.

Seeking God for the answer and direction in your life is the key to gaining the Perseverance needed to have Victory and Power and all things!!!!!!!

4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

This was a tough lesson for me to learn and understand.

To complete the work and opportunity the Lord has laid before you can be the biggest challenge.

Because things dont always necessarily work out and run as smoothly as you had though it would.

Sometimes the disappointment you have when youth who you thought were leaders let you down....

2 Thessalonians 1

 1Paul, Silas[a] and Timothy,
      To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

 2Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thanksgiving and Prayer

 3We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing. 4Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.

 5All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering.

6God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you

7and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.

 8He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

 9They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power

10on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.

 11With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith.

12We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.[b]

For me to Let God's Power and Sovereignty speak for itself, for me to be confident in what the Lord has given me to say and share with the youth.

In all things I must be patient and have Faith in the lord that he will provide for me the words

For me to trust that The Kids heard what was needed  to be heard.

For me to know That I cant control what the youth learn and take in to apply to their everyday life

God's Grace

God's Grace

 Why We get things we dont even deserve.

Psalm 45:2
You are the most excellent of men and your lips have been anointed with grace, since God has blessed you forever.

Isaiah 26:10
Though grace is shown to the wicked, they do not learn righteousness; even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil and regard not the majesty of the LORD.

Jonah 2:8
"Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs.

Luke 2:40
And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

John 1:16
From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another.

Acts 6:8
[ Stephen Seized ] Now Stephen, a man full of God's grace and power, did great wonders and miraculous signs among the people

Acts 11:23
When he arrived and saw the evidence of the grace of God, he was glad and
encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with

Life

Sometimes i wonder why people say what they say....do what they do....act the way they act.....i dont understand why some people pick at someone just for commenting on some one's page. I am probably over reacting to hopefully a sarcastic statement....Does there really have to be drama in every relationship you make whether it be friendly, spiritual, or physical?  You know maybe i do comment on some people's wall on myspace too much.... Maybe i should just quit caring about the friendships i have made..... maybe i should be considerate of others who want to comment.....Maybe i should just wait for someone to comment me.......Oh wait i know, maybe i should be like a Christian and God.....Only have the relationship with God when it is convienent to you..... Sometimes in most cases i feel like i am only a "friend of convience"..... I dont like it..... I feel used as much as God is being used by us Daily..... Why am i so easily taken advantage of? Why do we Treat as something we have and just dont use? I may not fit up the Popular or culture standards but i do know i work hard to be all i can be in Lord....... I know i shouldnt let anger and frustration get the best of me......I dont know why the statement i read bothered me sooo much..? Could it be the Fact that is God's conviction teaching me a lesson to never conform of this world, to never be consumed by the world, Course i know if you love the world YOu cant love God, SO really it is a pretty easy decision for me to make..... Always choose God and forget where the world tempts you, hurts you, and fails you...... I dont have to worry about being accepted in the world..... because i am already accepted into the Family of God........You this is the first time i have actually been mad all over......But God is Good all the time!

Sincerely,

Shan

P.S. Be Blessed Because we are God's Chosen People!

Ephesians 1 (New International Version)

Ephesians 1

 1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God,
      To the saints in Ephesus,[a] the faithful[b] in Christ Jesus:

 2Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Spiritual Blessings in Christ
 3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
 
4For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love
 
5he[c] predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will—
 
6to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.
 
7In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace
 
8that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
 
9And he[d] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ,
 
10to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.

 11In him we were also chosen,[e] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,

12in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.

13And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,

14who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.
