FROM THE KEYBOARD

Grace wasn't granted so we could sin freely. But rather, grace was granted so we could be free of sin. You see, God's grace isn't just an eraser that wipes up our mistakes, but it's also a buffer that keep us from making mistakes. It is out of the glorious grace given to us in Jesus that we can live a life victorious.

Nobody can curse what God has blessed. Consider how a “Merry Christmas” has nothing to do with presents and everything to do with His presence. Again, having a "Merry Christmas" isn't about being liked by the crowd, but it does signify that not even a “King Herod” can take you out. Remember, the devil doesn’t fight us because of where we are; he fights us because....

We may make plans that we think are best, but without God's blessing, those plans are sure to bust. He knows the perfect plans He has for us. Therefore, it would be wise to ask Him for His hand of blessing before we take a step in our own direction. You'd be surprised how willing God is to show you He knows best when you take the time to ask Him for His best

Jesus never points His finger and says "how dare you!" Instead, He opens His arms and says "I love you." Now that's grace.

We often pray for deliverance from trials, but we really need to pray for endurance while we go through them. You see, it's usually within the greatest pressures of life that we are afforded the opportunity to experience the greatest presence of God.

God appraised your life priceless when He went to the cross and made you righteous. You see, the Father bankrupted heaven when He gave us the wealth of Jesus' life; we cannot add nor take away from this appraisal, for we have been bought with a price. The cross therefore, proves you are uniquely special to God.
