GRACE PREVAILS!

Text: Romans 8:3 (NLT)

The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature. So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin's control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins.

When God's grace is upon a man's life, the power to overcome Sin and Devil is upon such. 
Grace is not just limited to God's favour, it is God's ability at work in your life.

Where the law fails to handle and terminate sin, grace prevails. *The law could not handle man's sinful nature, only grace in Christ Jesus did.* 

When grace gets a good hold of you, you will be turned into another man. You will become a man of power and strength. Apostle Paul said, "But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me" (1 Corinthians 15:10).

Anyone carrying God's  grace can never be a weakling. Such person will always prevail over Sin, Satan and Death.

The Apostles of our Lord Jesus had on them great grace and they prevailed over every situations that confronted them. They conquered the nation of Rome and brought it to her knees through grace. 
Nero, the emperor of Rome thought they were weaklings, but through grace, Rome was turned over to God. 

In time of difficulty, may you find grace to help you and cause you to prevail in Jesus name. (Hebrews 4:16).

The reason many Christians haven't discovered the prevailing grace is because they are not growing in grace. Though grace started us on our journey of salvation (Eph. 2:8), but we must continue to grow in grace. 

A growing Grace is a Prevailing Grace.

Bible Reading: Romans 6:1-13.

Prayer Focus

1.) Father God, cause me to keep on growing in grace through the knowledge of my Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ.

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...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
