GRACE ABOUNDS-2

Text: Romans 6:1 

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?

Romans 5:20 (The message version) says "...Sin didn't, and doesn't, have a chance in competition with the aggressive forgiveness we call grace. When it's sin versus grace, grace wins hands down.

Grace is a jaw-breaker. It terminates and destroys sin and death. 

Apostle Paul therefore asked in Romans 6:1 that shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 
He responded in the negative-God forbid!

When Jesus(Grace) found the woman caught in the very act of adultery, who was about to be stoned to death, he sets her free from death. Thereafter, He said to her, "Go and sin no more!"

That's what grace sounds like: *Grace forgives extravagantly but also sets free from the power of sin, so grace grants you forgiveness and also gives you the power to live above sin.* 

Sin is not just limited to works of the flesh outlined in Galatians 5:19-21. Sin is anything and everything that is contrary to God in a man's life.

How do you think the woman Jesus sets free from death would describe grace? The grace she found has brought her  pardon, deliverance, freedom.  
Much more importantly, the grace has given her a new command: "....Sin No More"

Grace has come to destroy the power of sin which is made manifest through the law. 

Are you being held down by a sinful habit?

Are you being oppressed by the demonic operations?

Are you wearied and tired from being a continuous loser in various aspects of your life?

Are you held bound by the force of addiction?

Are you confused, stranded and perplexed?

Grave is the answer!

You can rediscover Grace in a new way today.

Simply go to God like a child approaching his father, ask Him to release His grace afresh upon you through the name of Jesus.

 *Bible Reading :* 

Romans 6:1-13.

 *Prayer Focus* 

1.) Father God, I receive the grace for continuous obedience to your will in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
