“But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets” Romans 3:21(KJV)   The death, burial, and resurrection of Christ are the dividing line between the Old Testament and the New Testament.   In the New Testament the rule of engagement changes. The way God related with man before Christ came is different from the way He is relating with...

“By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Romans 5:2 (KJV)   When Adam fell, he was struggling to make himself clean. God had to do it for him. God slaughtered an animal, brought out the skin, and covered him. And not only did He do that, but He also drove him...

“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Romans 5:1-2 (KJV)   Triumphant! That is how God wants you to see yourself. When you see yourself like that, the Holy Spirit who is the Spirit of truth...

“He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, Neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: The LORD his God is with him, And the shout of a king is among them.” Numbers 23:21 (KJV)   Anything you are doing to get God’s attention is dead work. Your efforts, your performance, and your self-righteousness are dead works! Abraham did not roll on the ground, put on ashes on his...

“For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God” Hebrews 7: 19 (KJV)   We are believers. That is who we are. We believe what God calls us whether we look like it or not or whether we are behaving like it or not. When God calls you, why does He call you...

“When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.” John 19:30 (KJV)   When the devil attacks your body, you should not tolerate it because you are not sick. You are the healed that the devil wants to make sick. The scripture says the streets of Heaven are paved with gold. So, money is...

“In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.” Ecclesiastes 11:6 (KJV)   The natural mind will not sow seeds. The natural man only thinks of how to collect but that is the exact opposite of the supernatural mind, which is patterned after...

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33 (KJV)   Yesterday, we learned that we are God’s priority and like I said yesterday if you truly understand it, your immediate reaction will be to make Him your priority too.   What does it mean to make God your priority? The scripture for today makes it...

“According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love.” Ephesians 1: 4 (KJV) You see, the reason you have to make God your priority is that first of all, God has made you His priority. God is committed to you. One key bible truth that you must understand and...

“And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.” John 1:16 (kjv)   One of the challenges of the believer today is the lack of understanding of all that is available in Christ.
