GRACE.
Grace is unmerited favour. But Grace is also a teacher. Teaching us to deny ungodliness and worldly lust. Teaching us to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world. {Titus 2:11-12}

Grace
God's Riches At Christ Expense.

TRUTH.
Truth is indivisible and indestructible.

If you bury the Truth, it will resurrect.

If you suppress the Truth, it will become more buttressed.

If you malign the Truth, it remains aligned. Indict the Truth, it becomes indicative.

If you cover the Truth with a garment of time, that garment will wax old and decay and be changed, but Truth endures forever. You can only do something for the Truth not against the Truth. { 2 corinthians 13 :8}
Grace and Truth came by Jesus Christ: { John 1:17}. King of kings and Lord of lords! Embrace it!

We are not of this world.

For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. 17 And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.

Matters of the Heart: What do you do when everything seems to go wrong? Job 1:1-22

Matters of the Heart: What do you do when everything seems to go wrong? Job 1:1-22

Growing in Godliness: The fruit of Godliness will develop in our lives as we grow in our personal knowledge and understanding of God. Godly living turns from evil and seeks to understand God’s perspective in every circumstance of life. Seek to walk before the Lord blamelessly, fearing God and rejecting evil. Recognize that simply hearing about God is not enough. Intimacy and a personal encounter enable us to perceive and know Him for ourselves.

Pursue diligently an understanding of God’s perspective when trying to apply truth to a given situation. Though Job’s friends spoke truth, they wrongly applied it and falsely accused Job. They did not speak right about God nor did they understand His perspective; as a result, they provoked God’s wrath.

Cultivating dynamic devotion is cultivated within the rich soil of knowing, understanding, and trusting in the character and nature of God. The book of Job does not answer the “why” question, but it does answer the “who” question. We may not understand why we go through trials and suffering, but by trusting in who God is in His love, righteousness and power, we can say with Job, “though he slay me, yet will I trust Him”.

Remember that God knows you. He knows what you can handle and will not allow you to be tested beyond what you can endure (1 Cor. 10:13). Rejoice that Jesus Christ is our mediator and advocate with the Father (1 Tim. 2:5, 1 John 2:1). Put your trust in who God is based on who His Word has revealed Him to be. Place your hope and trust in God the Creator and sustainer of all things; the loving, righteous, all-powerful and just one.

Pursuing Holiness: As we begin to see and understand the holiness and purity of God, we begin to understand our own need for holiness and purity. Commit yourself to keeping your eyes pure. Be careful to look upon things that honor the Lord and are consistent with holiness. Humble yourself before the Lord, just as Job did. He encountered God’s majesty and holiness and it left him deeply aware of his sin, and inability to justify himself (Is. 6:1-7, Rom. 5:18-21).

The Walk of Faith: Faith is the confidence of things not seen. Job’s circumstances made it appear that either Job had sinned or God was unjust. Neither conclusion was accurate nor faith brought Job through his trials, enduring patiently to the end. He learned God’s sustaining grace and experienced God’s merciful restoration (Heb. 11:1, James 5:10,11). Believe God is for you, even in the midst of intense trials. Recognize there may be a satanic source involved in suffering and affliction; but also remember He who is in you is greater that he who is in the world (1 John 4:4)! Do not be like Job’s friend. Do not assume that someone’s illness of trial is a result of sin or judgment. Encourage the downcast. Strengthen the weak; comfort the afflicted. Hold fast to Jesus, your redeemer. Be comforted knowing He is able to redeem any circumstance (Rom. 8:28).

Are you looking for right answers in wrong places?

People in the world are desperately looking for answers: answers to problems, answers to difficult questions, answers to pain and suffering -- everyone wants answers to life's questions. But so many people look for right answers in all the wrong places: psychics, mediums, weegie boards, star charts, spiritists, astrological signs, and other similar places. Sadly, some of the most visited sites on the Internet contain popular horoscopes.

However, God sternly warns His people not to turn to such things. In Leviticus 19:31, God tells us, "Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them." Only a few verses later, He again warns: "I will set my face against the person who turns to mediums and spiritists to prostitute himself by following them, and I will cut him off from his people" (Leviticus 20:6).

The Bible instructs us not to turn to worldly things for answers. Instead, we are to turn to Jesus, who is the way and the truth and the life(John 14:6). Jesus is not one of the ways; He is the way. You will get real answers to life's difficult questions only from God.

So, instead of spending $3.99 per minute looking for right answers in wrong places, turn to the all-knowing God, himself, the creator of the universe!

Time is the price you must pay for intimacy with God.

One of the most valuable things that a person could possibly have is an intimate relationship with God. That same God who is big enough and powerful enough to create the whole universe is also small enough and caring enough to desire a personal relationship with you--a relationship that will last for eternity. Of course, such an intimate friendship won't happen by chance. Your relationship with your best friend didn't come overnight, and your relationship with God is no different. It requires time.

There is a principle that can be seen both in the Bible and in the world, which basically states that you reap what you sow (see 2 Corinthians 9:6; Galatians 6:7-8). However, you can't expect to reap a harvest on seeds you've never sown. In other words, you can't expect to know God well if you don't invest significant amounts of time and energy into the relationship.

Therefore, it is very important how you use your time. No wonder Paul, in Ephesians 5:15-16, wrote this: Be very careful, then, how you live -- not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Here, Paul is encouraging us to use our time wisely--that is, to make the most of it. 

The way to make the most of your time is to invest it into something of great value that lasts forever--an intimate relationship with God. A practical tip that I have found to be true in my own life is this: Reserve a specific slot each day to spend time with God. Don't do anything else during that time; make it your time specifically for you and God. You can't use the excuse, "I'll read my Bible and spend time with God, as soon as I can find some time." You will never find time! You must maketime. Therefore, reserve time for God, remembering that time is the price you must pay for intimacy with God.

It's not our circumstances that steal our joy; it's our attitude during our circumstances.

It is easy to think "If I could just get a new car, a bigger house, a better job, or more money, then I'll be happy." We tend to view happiness as a commodity attainable by wealth. However, as the old saying goes, "money cannot buy happiness."  Indeed, no amount of money or things will ever give you lasting joy or contentment; that's because joy and contentment are not based on circumstances. Therefore, if you're not content with what you have, you won't be content with what you want.  Although at first it may seem difficult, it is very possible to be content even during harsh circumstances. Paul said, in Philippians 4:11-12,"I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want."  In those two verses, Paul is saying that he could be content—that is, have joy—regardless of his circumstances. Joy should not be dependent on circumstances; it should be present regardless of them. When Paul said that he could be content "in any and every situation," he truly meant everything—even the tough times of testing. In 2 Corinthians 11:24-27, he lists some of the tough times that he has endured: "Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my own countrymen, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false brothers. I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked."Even in all these things, Paul had "learned to be content." Clearly, it's not our circumstances that steal our joy. You, too, can learn "to be content whatever the circumstances.Stop thinking that you will have joy after you buy a new house, after you get married, after you buy a better car, after your in-laws treat you right. Don't put off joy untilafter everything goes your way; decide to have joy now! For you can have joy whatever the circumstances!
