STEPPING
STONE #3
GRACE OF GOD
|
Welcome back to ...
THE PATH
|
Psalms 39:7
And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee. |
I trust you've been
patient to wait like we talked about.
It is bringing you closer to your goal.
Keep up the wonderful job!
Remember this is YOUR time ...
No interruptions.
Let's
take a lil walk, shall we?
Now you're standing on your second
STEPPING STONE, and looking out over your garden, you can see that it
needs some work. BUT ... Before we get to work, we must complete this
step. The third STEPPING STONE is something that requires absolutely
NO WORK at all on your part.
You may want to compare it to a spring rain. It will
soften up the soil of your garden so that the weeds that we have to
pull, will come out easier.
GRACE BIBLE STUDY
GRACE BIBLE QUOTES
What is the Grace? Open up your heart and listen ... I will reveal to you the TRUTH of Grace today, and the TRUTH is this ...
God sacrificed His only Son to get His children into
Heaven.
Think about that for a second ...
God sacrificed His ONLY SON to get YOU into Heaven.
|
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have
everlasting life. |
But, why did God
CHOOSE to sacrifice His Son?
It’s very simple. Because mankind had done so much bad, that all the
sacrificing in the world wouldn’t cleanse away the sin. See, long ago,
animal sacrifices were needed to cleanse away the sins that mankind
committed against God. But now ... Jesus is the sacrifice. Believing
in Jesus, cleanses away OUR past sins. God loved us so much, that even
knowing the only sacrifice that would suffice, was His own Son, and He
decided to do it anyway ... To save His children.
One more thing to ponder on ...
Jesus Himself CHOSE to lay down His life for YOU.
Now, my friend, make no mistake ...
|
By no means is
GOD’S
GRACE
a get out of hell
free card.
YOU ARE STILL RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR
ACTIONS AFTER YOU RECEIVE
GOD’S GRACE. |
God’s Grace
reveals that if you TRULY believe in Jesus, you would know that He
loves you so much, that He was willing to die for you, and He did.
You will truly want to do what He wants you to do, because you would
know that He is looking out for your best interests. You will try hard
not to do things that would make Him ashamed or disappointed in you.
You may fall, but always remember that only a worm is free from the
worry of stumble and the real test is to see if you’ll get up, dust
yourself off, carry on and never surrender.
As time passes, you’ll find that you begin to make
the right choices, out of love ...
Not fear of punishment.
It will be your FAITH that establishes your WORKS.
GRACE BIBLE STUDY ON LOST LOVE
GRACE BIBLE QUOTES ON TEARS AND FEARS
Now, there are many people that were Christians and have stopped
believing in God, because something really bad happened. For example,
they lose a friend or family member to divorce or death. They decide
to blame God or say, if there is a God, why would He allow this to
happen. I want you to know that I TRULY feel your pain, for I have
lost that which was most dear to me, but I also know this ...
Christians encounter tribulation and trials just like everybody else,
and to stop believing in God, will not explain away the loss.
|
Isaiah 57:1-2
The righteous perisheth,
and no man layeth it to heart (understands it): and merciful men
are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken
away from the evil to come. He shall enter into peace: they
shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness. |
Sometimes these things are allowed to happen for reasons that we
don’t understand, reasons that we can’t even fathom. I’ve found that
nine times out of ten, it was caused by negligence or a decision made
on mankind's part. A true friend tells the TRUTH, and the TRUTH is,
most of the time, we bring our problems on ourselves.
Every day, each of us makes choices that have the
capability to affect ourselves and others, whether the choice be good
or bad. God allows mankind to make their own decisions because He
doesn’t want puppets. He allows us free will. The other one out of ten
(reasons why things are allowed to happen) is what I call the test or
trial factor.
See the book of JOB.
I have no idea why God allows certain things to happen, but regardless
of why, it is His Will and perhaps one day we will understand why
certain things were allowed to happen.
Until then ... We must trust HIM.
If you have lost love due to death or divorce ...

GRACE BIBLE STUDY LOOKS AT FORGIVENESS
GRACE BIBLE QUOTES ON MERCY
FORGIVEN AND FORGOTTEN
No matter what you’ve done, or what your problem is,
God forgives you. He even forgives murderers. Know how you know this
to be TRUTH? Look at king David.
David desired Uriah’s wife Bathsheba but she was
married. He laid with her anyway and she conceived a child by King
David while her husband was out at war defending his country and HIS
KING. David found out Bathsheba was pregnant so he called Uriah in
from the war zone and tried to get Uriah to lay with Bathsheba while
he was on leave from the war. David wanted Uriah to believe that he
was the Dad of the child Bathsheba was pregnant with and not King
David, so that nobody would figure out what King David had done. But
Uriah, being a good man said he would not take rest and sleep with his
wife while his fellow Israelite soldiers were at war.
David was in trouble ... Sooooooo, David ordered the Captain of the
army to place Uriah on the front line of the war where the battle was
heated up so that he was sure to be killed. Uriah WAS killed and David
took Bathsheba as his own wife.
But ... God was watching and sent a prophet
(Nathan) to David to let David know
that God was not pleased. David repented of his sin.
David
was punished by the death of the
child that Bathsheba conceived by him, and God forgave David of this sin.
|
2 Samuel
12:13-15
And David said unto
Nathan, I have sinned
against the LORD. And
Nathan said unto David,
The LORD also hath put
away thy sin; thou shalt
not die. Howbeit,
because by this deed
thou hast given great
occasion to the enemies
of the LORD to
blaspheme, the child
also that is born unto
thee shall surely die.
And Nathan departed unto
his house. And the LORD
struck the child that
Uriah's wife bare unto
David, and it was very
sick. |
Now, here is the awesome part ...
EVEN AFTER THESE SINS ... David is known as the
“apple of God’s eye,” and all kings after him were compared to King
David by God. David and Bathsheba went on to have another son named
Solomon, and David’s bloodline carried on through Solomon and led
all the way to Jesus. Yes, you read that correctly. Our Lord and Savior Jesus was placed by God into the bloodline of King
David through Solomon and on down the bloodline ...
I’d call that forgiven and forgotten ... Wouldn't you?
In like manner ... Our sins cannot
outdo God’s Grace .
If you’re sorry for your sins, and repent to God through Jesus' name
there is no effort whatsoever required of you to obtain
God’s Grace.
It’s a miracle that is already yours, all you have to do is accept it.
God doesn’t ask us to jump through hoops or stand on our head to be
forgiven. He doesn’t demand that we work hard to win His love back. He
just asks that we believe that Jesus paid the price for our sins on
the Cross and that God raised Him from the dead. It’s so simple, yet
many people CHOOSE to believe or are CON-vinced into believing that
they are not able to be forgiven for their sins. These souls need only
trust in His Grace.
LET GO AND LET GOD!
LET GO (of your problem), AND LET GOD (remove it)
GOD FORGIVES!

We all make mistakes. We
fall. Sin gets in our way. Temptation surrounds us and we
don't always resist. But that is exactly why
God
sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins,
and to give us the FREE gift of GRACE! He wants you to ask
forgiveness and keep fighting the good fight of faith. When
you find yourself struggling with feelings of failure,
unworthiness, fear, weakness or shame, just remember that
God
loves
you so very much and He
wants you to get back up when you stumble. PERSEVERE! NEVER
GIVE UP! If you have a bad day, this study will help you
understand more about the liberating GRACE that our Father
wants each and every one of us to enjoy.
GOD'S GRACE

STEPPING STONE THREE
|
Accept the
TRUTH that God does forgive you for ALL of your sins IF you
repent and mean it with your heart. You must also ... Forgive
yourself. Christians are not perfect. We all fall down but the
trick is to get up, dust yourself off and carry on. Here is
TRUTH ... All past Saints are just the sinners that fell down
... And GOT UP.
By understanding and accepting
God’s Grace,
you’ve pulled enough
weeds out to lay down
the third STEPPING
STONE.
You’re doing a
great job!
Continuing in EACH step daily
is so very important.
If you
like ...
You
may go back over each completed step as often as you like as
to be sure you have not missed anything.
