Growing in Grace unto Excellence !

“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91:1‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

My beloved , Psalm 91 is one of the most cherished Psalms because God promises His blessing of protection from all evil.
Many have claimed these promises with amazing results following . I wish to ponder on this beautiful psalm in the light of the New Testament teachings.
Psalm 91:1 is the key to the blessings mentioned in the rest of the psalm.
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High , abides under the shadow of the Almighty.
What’s so special of this secret place ?
The Lord Jesus during His sermon on the Mount, spoke of the Secret place.
“But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” Matthew‬ ‭6:6‬ ‭
Yes my beloved , your Heavenly Father is in the Secret Place. It’s Awesome!
Where is this Secret Place ?
The place which you set aside to meet your Heavenly Father is the Secret Place . Time alone with God where only you and your Heavenly Father are present .
Growing in grace is experiencing the dynamics of the secret place. Amen 🙏
Because you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, God is your Abba Father & you will fellowship with Him in the Secret Place!

Praise Jesus !

Growing in Grace unto Excellence !

“Then it shall be, when he lies down, that you shall notice ( Aleph Tav) the place where he lies; and you shall go in, uncover his feet, and lie down; and he will tell you what you should do.””
‭‭Ruth‬ ‭3:4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Recently, the Holy Spirit has been ministering to me on the Psalm 91 . It’s the Psalm of protection to every believer. Psalm 91 : 1 says, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
‭‭Dwelling in the secret place is the key to appropriate the blessings of Psalm 91.
Now look at the prophetical utterance of Naomi to Ruth, “that you shall notice the place where he lies” . Naomi revealed the secret place to Ruth . Ruth understood and as a result she enjoyed every promise of Psalm 91 including God setting her at high place (“…I will set him on high, because he has known My name.” Psalms‬ ‭91:14‬ ‭).

My beloved, remember your spiritual mentor who has led you this far on the teaching of Grace, has an anointing to guide you to God’s divine destiny , far beyond your wildest imagination. Amen 🙏

Have a great weekend ! Continue to grow in grace through the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus !!

Growing in grace takes you even beyond your dreams!

Growing in Grace unto Excellence !

“Therefore wash yourself and anoint yourself, put on your best garment and go down to the threshing floor; but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking. Then it shall be, when he lies down, that you shall notice the place where he lies; and you shall go in, uncover his feet, and lie down; and he will tell you what you should do.””
‭‭Ruth‬ ‭3:3-4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

This is absolutely amazing! Naomi, who once hit rock bottom in her faith life, who accused God as being her enemy and the cause of her state of penury suddenly was turned right side up . What a change in Naomi!!
How can such a compassionate God be so cruel ? Think …,
However, the same Jehovah revisited Naomi by His grace and her faith life was restored. Naomi didn’t stop there but went ahead to appropriate grace upon grace. She grew in grace and at a point of time , she begins to prophecy over the life of Ruth.

The revelation gifts started operating in Naomi’s life . This prophetical gift eventually ushered in God’s divine destiny in the life of Ruth. Ruth did make great progress in her life. However, it took the prophetical anointing upon Naomi to take Ruth to her divine destiny even beyond her desired haven.
My beloved , see what growing in grace will do . I encourage you to desire more grace in your life . Grace upon grace through the revelation knowledge of Jesus Christ ! Amen 🙏

More grace more thankfulness!

Growing in Grace unto Excellence !

“Then she took it up and went into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. So she brought out and gave to her what she had kept back after she had been satisfied.
Then Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, “Blessed be he of the LORD, who has not forsaken His kindness to the living and the dead!” And Naomi said to her, “This man is a relation of ours, one of our close relatives.””
‭‭Ruth‬ ‭2:18, 20‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

When we grow in the grace of God what is very evident is that we grow in our gratefulness to our Lord .
Naomi who was full of bitterness, but began to praise God Almighty even as she began to experience God’s Grace.
Lack of thankfulness is clear indication that it is high time that we seek for His Favour. Moreover, it’s thankfulness that causes more grace in our life. This has a chain reaction : Grace leading to thankfulness, leading to more Grace and it continues.

What is interesting in the above passage is that Naomi experienced grace because she saw Jesus behind the gleaning of Ruth (“mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned.”) . You may ask how do you know that she saw Jesus ? In the original Hebrew script we find Aleph Tav soon after the word “saw”. Aleph Tav means the Alpha and the Omega in the New Testament . This is truly amazing !
So, growing in grace happens when we begin to have revelation knowledge of Jesus ! Hallelujah! Amen 🙏
Let’s pray that God would reveal Jesus( Aleph Tav) to us !

Praise Jesus !

Desire favor over reward!

Grace for you today

Growing in Grace unto Excellence !

“Then she said, “Let me find favor in your sight, my lord; for you have comforted me, and have spoken kindly to your maidservant, though I am not like one of your maidservants.””
‭‭Ruth‬ ‭2:13‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Here is Ruth who was greatly appreciated by Boaz for her good works . Her amazing conduct of life was as a result of Grace out working . She knew the power of Grace . But when it came to receive the due reward for her good works , she insisted for more grace in her life .

This is truly amazing . Most of us look forward for the due reward for the hard work that we have put in . Doubtlessly , the hard work itself was as a result of Grace outworking in the first place. Also , there is nothing wrong looking forward for the due reward.

However, when the due reward doesn’t result in the estimated time set by us especially when we compare with others lives, disappointment sets in our heart and we begin to slowly drift away from God’s righteousness into self righteousness. We cease growing in grace.
My beloved, let’s focus like Ruth was focussed. She put grace ahead of reward. She was very keen on growing in grace. The final analysis of her life resulted in God’s blessing beyond her expectation.
So shall it be with you today . Amen 🙏
Grow in grace through your confession that you are the righteousness of God on account of Christ’s righteous acts.

I can’t but You can

Grace for you today
!
Exceptional Grace seeks you!

Then it shall be, when he lies down, that you shall notice (Aleph Tav) the place where he lies; and you shall go in, uncover his feet, and lie down; and he will tell you (Aleph Tav) what you should do.” Ruth 3:4 NKJV

Aleph Tav signifies Jesus. Naomi directed Ruth her daughter-in-law to the feet of Boaz (typified Jesus) for instructions.

Lying at the feet of Jesus is like saying “I can’t but You can”, it is complete submission. It is like letting go of control and allowing Him to control. This is Faith that comes from hearing His word.
No one knows about our next moment, but our Lord knows the end from the beginning. He is in complete control. He knows you more than you know yourself. Every hair on your head is numbered and known to Him.

Dear Beloved, you may be imperfect, but Jesus came to remove this imperfection on the cross. Just believe that His Righteousness has qualified you to significance and prominence in Christ. Your life can only spiral upwards at the feet of Jesus. Amen 🙏

Praise Jesus!

Your security is in Jesus!

Exceptional Grace seeks you!

Then Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, “My daughter, shall I not seek security for you, that it may be well with you? Ruth 3:1 NKJV

Naomi and Ruth enjoyed the grace granted by Boaz to glean grains from his field up to the end of Barley & wheat harvest. Subsequently, for sustenance, Naomi started seeking security, rest and peace for Ruth.

We find examples in the Bible of people seeking Rest, Peace and Security.
a) A Samaritan woman at the well who had 5 husbands and was currently living with another man.
b) A woman who was caught in the act of adultery.
These women went through failed relationships in their search for peace and rest.

When they had an encounter with Jesus, grace caused them to find rest and be transformed inside-out – from ‘sin to righteousness in Christ’ and from ‘shame to gain in Christ’ . Ruth too had an encounter with the typified Jesus in Boaz. She moved from lack to abundance.

Dear Beloved, the love of Christ Jesus turns our lives right side up. ‘Cast all your cares on to Jesus for He cares for you’ (1Peter 5:7). As you confess “I am the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus ‘, experience His exceeding grace unfold in your life this week.

Praise Jesus!

Bitterness to Blessing !

Exceptional Grace seeks you!

Then she took it up and went into the city, and her mother-in-law saw (Aleph Tav) what she had gleaned. So, she brought out and gave to her (Aleph Tav) what she had kept back after she had been satisfied.
Ruth 2:18 NKJV

Ruth a foreigner came with her mother-in-law to her country under the wings of Naomi’s God, the God of Israel. She had lost everything like Naomi. However, when she went out looking for food in this new land, completely direction less and lost, she found favour as she got positioned to meet the right person at the right place at the right time.

Grace comes seeking the lost, the least and the last.

She got transformed from lack to abundance, from paucity to plenitude as she carried back a month’s ration in a day’s work.

Aleph Tav signifies Jesus. When Ruth went back to her mother-in-law with this abundance, Naomi could see the onset of this exceptional grace through Jesus. Even in the roasted grain that Ruth had kept back from Boaz’s table, Naomi could see God’s grace through Jesus.

This was also a transformation for Naomi……. from ‘Bitterness’ to ‘Blessing’

Beloved, as we come to the end of this week, Exceptional Grace will put you to meet the right person at the right place at the right time. Now is the time!

Jesus will touch you at your point of need where you are lost, last or least and will change that to plenitude and abundance! Just confess that you are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

Praise Jesus!

His Righteousness and His Grace – Free gift

21st January 2021
Grace for you today
!
Exceptional Grace seeks you !

So, she gleaned in the field until evening, and beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley. Then she took it up and went into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. So, she brought out and gave to her what she had kept back after she had been satisfied.
Ruth 2:17-18

Today one of the most startling facts in the above verse is unfolded
Ruth ‘Beat out’ what she had gleaned. To ‘Beat out’ means to thresh the grain on a hard surface to separate the grain from the chaff. In this verse a symbol of the first & last letter of Hebrew alphabets – ‘Aleph Tav’ is seen that signifies Jesus. This means that It took beating on the body of Christ to bring the untold blessings upon Ruth’s life.

But what had Ruth done to receive grace in her life?
You receive everlasting righteousness of God as a free gift by Faith through grace the second you believe in our Lord Jesus (ref Rom 3:22).
a) In this case Ruth received Naomi’s God as her God without knowing & without seeing.
b) She chose to receive grace and not her reward.

Reward is the outcome of one’s work whereas grace is the outcome of our Lord’s love for us. She clung to grace which is super abounding, rather than reward which is limited.

Dear Beloved just confess that you are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus and receive His super abounding Grace like Ruth did.

Praise Jesus!

Purposely blessings ensures the best!

So, she gleaned in the field until evening, and beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley. Then she took it up and went into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. So, she brought out and gave to her what she had kept back after she had been satisfied.
Ruth 2:17-18 NKJV

Ruth the foreigner hung on to grace, even when she could have claimed her reward that Boaz had offered, as she had chosen to come under the wings of the God of Israel. Consequently ‘purposely blessings’ flowed out in her life as she was allowed to glean on the best of the grains.

An ‘Ephah’ is equivalent to a weight slightly more than 20Kgs. What Ruth gleaned in one day accounted for food for her and Naomi her mother-in-law for the whole month. This would mean 29 days of rest for Ruth.

There are families who often start cutting corners and sometimes resort to borrowing from here and there till the month ends. However, Ruth saw this exceptional grace at its best!

Dearly beloved, ‘Purposely blessings’ come upon you when you choose grace and this day, ‘purposely blessings’ are coming upon you forever as you are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

Praise Jesus!
