Amazing Grace

                             

After a long time without posting anything on this blog, time has come for me to restart communicating.  I find myself in a great season of re-discovering what the grace of God is all about and how God has graced us and made us acceptable in the beloved.  It is an  amazing revelation that God regards us as friends after we have been born again through the blood of Jesus

 As Paul declares in Romans "Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh" (Rom. 8:1-3)

What the law could not do; God did it by sending His son to die in my place.  When He died, I died with Him and when he was raised from the dead, I was raised with Him.  I am no longer at war with heaven.  I am a son standing before the father without any inferiority because of what Christ has done for me.  Because of this process I have become a new creation. The old man is dead and the new man now lives.  With this revelation satan has problems dealing with this new creation.  Every born again child of God can cause the devil to run.  Salvation has opened the heavens for the believer with an abundance of God's blessings.  The gifts of the spirit have been made available freely.  This is all by grace and not by works.  There is new law at work in a believer.  This is the  law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus.  I am finally free from the law of sin and death.  Sin has no more dominion over any child of God.  Could you join me in this journey of re-discovering grace in 2013.  What the law could not accomplish God did.  I will discuss this further.  Share your thoughts about this GRACE.
