Others Fell, You Stood: The Unusual Mercy of God When You Receive the Unusual Mercy of God In God's dealings with man, there is a time of judgment and a time of mercy. God is the Father of mercies who, at times, shows unusual mercy to some people when others in the same situation are consumed in judgment. Sarah enjoyed God's unusual mercy when she laughed the heavenly visitors to scorn over the reaffirmation of the promise that she was going to have a child. Instead of divine judgment falling upon her, God kept her alive to enjoy the fulfilment of the promise she doubted. This was unlike the chief who doubted the prophecy of abundance through Elisha and died in a stampede on the day of its fulfilment. "And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent. And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him. Now ...

No More Sin Consciousness: Stand Boldly Before the Father The Revelation of Righteousness: standing in the Father's presence without guilt or inferiority Righteousness means the ability to stand in the presence of Father God without the sense of guilt or inferiority . This has been the quest of the ages. The Quest of the Ages The desire to get rid of Sin Consciousness has given birth to all the major religions of the world. Philosophers have argued that God is not a person, and that Satan is not a person. If there is no God and no Devil, there can be no sin. If there is no sin, there can be no judgment. And if there is no fear of judgment, there would be no Sin Consciousness. But declaring that the tide does not rise does not stop it from rising. The philosopher's declaration that God is not does not stop God from being. God is. Satan is. Sin is. What God Did in His Son But God has dealt with the sin problem in His Son. By the sacrifice of that Son, He has ...

Leftover Days? No, Divine Days! “Don't let the calendar steal your faith. These last days are not leftovers; they are an open door. God is still working, still moving, and still writing a story of unexpected miracles and unforgettable testimonies!” Child of God, hear this word. Some of you have been looking at the calendar with a tired heart. You have counted the months, the prayers, the tears, the waiting. You are whispering, “It’s almost over. Maybe it was not meant for me this year.” But the Spirit says: The year is not over until God says it is over. Your Expectation Has Not Been Cut Off “For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.” — Proverbs 23:18 Heaven has not cancelled what you are believing for. People may have laughed. Time may have delayed. Doubt may have whispered. But the promise of God does not expire when the calendar runs low. “My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.” — Psalm 62:5 Your expecta...

Complete in Him: Living in the Righteousness of God Now The church has been very strong in teaching man his need of Righteousness, and his weakness and inability to please God. Church has been very strong in denouncing sin in the believer. Church has preached against unbelief, worldly conformity, and lack of faith. But Church has been sadly lacking in bringing forward the truth of what we are in Christ , and how Righteousness and faith are available to us. Most of our hymns put our redemption off until after death. We are going to have rest when we get to heaven. We are going to have victory when we get to heaven. We are going to be overcomers, and have peace with God, when we get to heaven. There will be no more failings when we get to heaven. We have nothing on this side except failure, misery, disappointment, and weakness. What does He mean when He says: And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:(Colossians 2:10) When are we to be complete? Is i...

 IN A TIME OF FAVOUR The time of GOD’S favour is characterized by unusual experiences and blessings. What GOD does in the time of HIS favour is so different from what HE generally does in order to enable us realize the power of HIS favour in the affairs of men. Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come. Psalms 102:13 Times of GOD’S favour are given to enable HIS purpose to be fulfilled. GOD does not pour out HIS favour randomly on people. There must be a definite purpose HE wants a man to fulfill when HE favours the man, GOD’S purpose is the same thing as the destiny HE has designed for a man.  Everybody gets something from GOD, whether a sinner or a saint, but GOD has a special package for men and women of HIS favour. That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for HE maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. Matthew 5:45 The air we...

  When God Remembers You The Bible describes seasons of favour in many ways, but they share the same marks: overflowing joy, breakthroughs, miracles, and the goodness of the LORD. One of its names for this season is the time of divine remembrance. "And GOD remembered Rachel, and GOD hearkened to her, and opened her womb. And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, GOD hath taken away my reproach: And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son." ( Genesis 30:22-24) Rachel's long wait Rachel's womb stayed closed for years. There can be many reasons for that. It might have been a biological cause, or GOD may have allowed it for a while so that His power could be seen more clearly. Rachel was the love of Jacob's life, yet she had no children. Her sister Leah, on the other hand, started having children almost as soon as she married Jacob. Imagine being barren while the women around you are fruitful. It is hard to picture the ache of tha...
