First, from the salvation of the sinful woman in Luke 7 to Zaccheus’ house in chapter 19, Jesus was known ...read more

    God’s grace is His unmerited favor. And that means we can’t earn it. We can’t work for it, and we can’t change His mind about it, even if we tried. He pours out His blessing on us not because of what we do, but because of who He is.

    Tell everyone how good, the good news is! "From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another" (John 1:16, NIV).  God wants to pour out His blessing and favor upon you each and every day. I talked Sunday from psalms 68:19 It says in the Psalms that He daily ...read more
