"Great is Your love and justice God. You use the weak to lead the strong.You lead us in the song of Your salvation. And all Your people sing along" - Chris Tomlin ,  Your Grace Is Enough (Arriving Album Version) .  Chris Tomlin were at the Youth Specialties convention when his band was asked to to back up a guy named Matt Maher who originally wrote and composed this song. What is "Grace"? For most Christians, we define "grace" as God's unmerited favor. It is kindness from God that we don't deserve. An unconditional gift! There is nothing we have done, nor can ever do to earn this favor.  "In Christian theology it is defined as a state of sanctification by God; the state of one who is under such divine influence; a virtue coming from God; a state of sanctification enjoyed through divine favor.( 1 )"  The famous acronym for GRACE is this: G od's R iches A t C hrist's E xpense. This is the exact message of Ephesians 2:

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." ( Psalm 46:10 ) "The word still comes from a Hebrew word meaning to “let go” or “release.” The meaning would be best understood to say “cause yourself to become restrained or to let go.” In other words, we need to come to a place where we are willing to submit ourselves to God and acknowledging that He is in sovereign control."( 1 ).  We need to understand that God is the Fountain of power, wisdom, justice, goodness, and truth. Being Still according to Adam Clarke also means that we cease from provocations of the Divine justice; cease from murmuring against the dispensations of his providence; cease from your labor for a season, that ye may deeply reflect on the severity and goodness of God - severity to those who are brought down and destroyed; goodness to you who are raised up and exalted: - cease from sin and rebellion against your God; let that disgrace yo

I'm looking for a topic to write on this blog today and I stumbled on a song in Youtube entitled "O Praise Him" by The David Crowder Band .  I first heard about this band back in New Zealand when they performed at the annual Parachute Music Festival usually held in Mystery Creek , Hamilton, New Zealand. If you love the new breed of christian songs, you will surely like this band from Waco, Texas . This band began when David Crowder , from Texarkana, Texas, found out that almost half of the students of Baylor University, a christian university were not attending church. He and Chris Seay started University Baptist Church (Waco, Texas) in 1995 while he was still a student. Crowder led worship there and continued to do so throughout the year. The church's congregation grew, as did the band's lineup. The chorus goes "O Praise Him! He is holy!" Wow, a huge reminder and that's what I needed to hear today. There are time in our lives that we str

Modern man does not like to think of God in terms of wrath, anger and judgment. He likes to make God according to his own ideas and give God the characteristics he wants Him to possess. Man tries to remake God to conform to his own wishful thinking, so that he can make himself comfortable in his sins. This modern god has the attributes of love, mercy and forgiveness, but is without justice. Man doesn’t want to be judged and punished for sin. He “reconstructs” God along the lines of tolerance, all-embracing love and universal goodwill. In this picture of God, there are no laws that demand absolute obedience and no standards to which man must adhere.    The Psalmist said: “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes” (Psalm 19:7-8). The Bible warns that “evil men do not understand justice”

I woke up today with this song of worship. What an incredible message! I just thought that we have rely to God every single day as if nothing has been done by Him. As we are breezing to our daily activities, quite often we rush and forget the most important details and that is, thanking God that we are alive and well! The Voice Of Hope  Lyrics Lara Martin As high as the heavens Are above the earth So high are your ways to mine Ways so perfect they never fail me I know you are good all the time And through the storm Yet I will praise you Despite it all  Yet I will sing Through good and bad Yet I will worship For you remain the same King of kings Chorus You are the voice of hope The anchor of my soul Where there seems to be no way You make it possible You are the prince of peace Amidst adversity My lips will shout for joy To you the most high Verse 2 You were the one Before time began There's nothing beyond your controll My confidence My assurence

Toby Mac's Get Back Up Currently in the Number 3 Spot at the Christian songs Billboard , Toby Mac renders an awesome christian song with a great message! Feeling down? Uninspired? Depressed? You've got to listen to this song. We lose our way, We get back up again It's never too late to get back up again, One day you will shine again, You may be knocked down, But not out forever, Lose our way, We get back up again, So get up, get up, You gonna shine again, Never too late to get back up again, You may be knocked down, But not out forever!

Does God allow second chance? If we commit the heaviest sin in our lives, is there hope of forgiveness? In Psalm 51, we reflect on David's prayer when he committed an adulterous relationship with Batsheba to the point the he orchestrated the death of Uriah, a loyal soldier to him who is Bathseba's husband. Have mercy upon me, O God, According to Your lovingkindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, Blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions, And my sin is always before me. Against You, You only, have I sinned, And done this evil in Your sight— That You may be found just when You speak And blameless when You judge. Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous Spirit. Then
