Unveiling Jesus Grace Nuggets

We can learn alot about Jesus through the types and shadows of the Old Testament. The Old is the New concealed. The New is the Old revealed. One story that gives us an awesome picture of how Jesus has defeated anxiety and stress and how effective warfare is executed through rest can be found in…

As believers today, God’s presence is within us because God Himself became man, dwelled among us, and then joined Himself to us and lives inside of us. This was not true of Adam and Eve. Although they were perfect and God was with them and His glory crowned them, His presence was outside. They were…

Did you know that when God created the first day, He made the evening first? In the evening we rest. So for man, rest comes first… rest before work. God intended for everything in our lives to be initiated out of rest. “God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the…

Spiritual rest is the greatest result of the revelation of grace. Nothing has had a more practical effect on my life than knowing God is for me, God is smiling at me, God loves who He sees when He looks at me, and God is not counting my sins against me. And as a result,…

In Hebrews 12 we find a passage of scripture that has been used by many to warn us against sins of the flesh that “so easily entangle,” and if we refuse to do so, then God will punish us. When we look at the passage in its context in Hebrews 12 as well as in…

“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” (Hebrews 10:23)1 The writer of Hebrews was encouraging the listeners – those Jewish people who were abandoning the Old Covenant system – not to waver in declaring their faith in Jesus as the final sacrifice. For us today,…

219: Sprinkled from an Evil Conscience Although we are near to God, so close that He is in us and we are in Him, there are times when we draw near in the sense that we intentionally worship Him, talk to Him, and ask Him questions. We don’t have to worry that He will condemn…

By the offering of Jesus on the cross for us, we have been perfected. This word also means made holy, sanctified, and set apart. We have been separated from this dark world and translated into the kingdom of God’s beloved Son forever. And ever… and ever. Nothing will separate us from God’s love. “For by…
