MY FRIENDS, HE LOOKED BEYOND OUR FAULTS AND SAW OUR NEED!

“I shall forever lift mine eyes to Calvary, to view the cross, where Jesus died for me how marvelous, His grace that caught my falling soul. He Looked beyond our faults and saw our need.” “Oh my friends, what Grace!!”

Calvary, that is where it all started for each of us, Our God knew every messed up situation and out of control circumstance we would find ourselves in throughout our life, he knew, at times the lure of the things the god of this world would present to us, would be more enticing then Sabbath, or Sunday school.

He knew every mountain and valley we would encounter. He knew the sickness and death, the heartache and pain that would surround our life decade after decade, he knew how close we would get to our probationary period ending, before we would call out in heartfelt anguish, Lord, what must I do to be saved!

My friends if you seek God’s kingdom like I, you will continue to fall, but we get up and brush our self off, but the thought of one day not being able to get up should terrify each of us, that is why we have to stay focus on the  promises in God’s word.

In addition, our attitude must be no matter what, we will never leave His presence, because even though, we loose our  direction at times, He is always the compass that leads us right back to Him.

Consistent with this, “God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Tim 1:7 (KJV) so we have to hold on my friends, allow your faith to be stretched to the limit endure for a moment because I can say with full assurance that a moment is all the time we have left in this controversy between good and evil.

But thank God for His grace for our God has looked beyond our faults and saw our needs remember “our God is the peace, which surpasses all understanding, He will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus. [But we must continue to] “all look to [Him to], give [us our] food in due season, [as He] opens our hand; [and] satisfies the desire of all our needs.” Ps 145:15-16 (PSV)

He is the light that shines within our hearts that awakens our conscious each day to our responsibility of service, in fulfilling his mandate, to go into all the world. My friends we must never loose sight of the fact that the “thief in the night” scenario our Savior gave us in Matt 24 is upon us and soon He will “come quickly; and our reward is with [him], to give every man, [or woman] according as his work…” Rev 22:12 (KJV)

My friends, that is a promise like all of God’s promises in His word “the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay. Habakkuk 2:3

Life is frustrating we tend to sometimes look back on the good old days, when life seemed so simple, and then reality sinks in maybe the death of a love one or a rebellious child, that seems out of control, or maybe it is just the world we have to wake up to each day.

That is “why [we must] find pleasure in things above, soon to be, the celestial music, the meadows and streams of water. The playful voices of  children and animals, our family and friends forever united, our new home with mansions and streets of Gold and the sun or Son of God, that forever light the atmosphere of the sky and our hearts.

But remember my friends, “the gates of hell will not prevail” against God’s chosen. From Genesis to Revelation, nothing will keep God’s promises in His word from coming to pass, but we must know those promises, because they “all Look beyond our faults” for they are the promises of all our needs in Christ Jesus Amazing Grace,”

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
