daily prayer

       Good morning! How are we faithing? I have heard some comments from conservative commentators lately that make me cringe. While technically they may be accurate, the usage does more harm than good. The whole counsel of God in the Word of God must be taken or believers come across as judgmental and narrow minded. Don't get me wrong, sin is sin and there is no way around what the Word tells us but pointing out the specific sin and not seeing the person is not what we are to do. Yes we can voice opinion on a specific sin as far as legislation and the law of the land goes but forgiveness is suppose to be what we do under grace.  Jesus forgave sins throughout the Word. Diseases were healed with forgiveness.  Sins were wiped out and people got a fresh start with forgiveness so why do we believers sometimes condemn others?  Where is it written the Jesus ever said any sin, except blaspheming the Holy Spirit, condemns one to hell? The only thing that condemns one to hell is denying Jesus and that is blaspheming the Holy Spirit. It's time we get off our high horse and  get down eye level with all people. We believers ain't any better than anyone else, we are just people who looked for true spiritual food and found it. We must share that grace filled food and let the provider sort out the sin.


Rom 5:17
For if, through one man, death ruled because of that man's offense, how much more will those who receive such overflowing grace and the gift of righteousness rule in life because of one man, Jesus the Messiah!


1Co 15:21-22
  For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead also came through a man.   For as in Adam all die, so also in the Messiah will all be made alive. 


Remember our leaders...remember the lost...


Heavenly Father,
  Please forgive our unbelief and our finger pointing. Lord bless those we meet, let them see and accept your grace and love. Lord we lift our leaders up and ask for wisdom they see truth. Lord protect the innocent. Teach us to love unconditionally. In Jesus name, amen.
