Had a wonderful revival! Brother Chancellor came and preached. God just blessed him with what was needed and it was so encouraging.
One of the things that stood out to me and I kind of got more understanding, was when the choir sang "Lead me Lord". When I was newly saved, being zealous for the Lord, you want the Lord to lead you and you think in bigs ways. But now as I have grown (praise God) it meant to me being lead in his ways. Everyday life. Lead me Lord in the direction(s) you want me to go. It was really good.
A message on being slow to anger, which was sooo good for me. Being able to control our spirit. He said " the tongue is a good measure as to how we rule our spirit". James 3:1-10
The message of grace! What a wonderful clear message. Grace being receiving what we didn't deserve, unmerited divine assistance. Wow, praise God! That he gives and does help in every situation. Mercy, the law helped us to know we deserved punishment because we were sinners. Back in Moses time, mercy, compassion/forbearance, when justice is deserved. Every year they would present their offereing and God would forgive them, but every year they would have to do the same, when now we are under grace, we dont have to do that. Its once and then living free. Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously and godly in this present world. |
