MERCY & GRACE

Matthew 9:27-31 (NKJV)
·         God's mercy is His tenderhearted, loving compassion for his people. It is His tenderness of heart toward the needy.
And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" 29 They said to Him, "Yes, Lord." Then He touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith let it be to you." Matthew 9:28-29
·         Your rightful position can never be yours unless you out grow your childhood. Only sons can ascend the thrones. Thrones are for sons not for children. Hearing God’s voice is not a gift, but a birthright.
Romans 9:15-16 For hesaith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. 16So then [it is] not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.(KJV)
·         Grace positions you, mercy approves you.
What you don’t need, God cannot supply. He will only supply all your needs according to His riches in glory.

STEPS TO STAYING UNDER MERCY AND GRACE

1.      The Communion
Matthew 26:26-29 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed [it], and brake [it], and gave [it] to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 27And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.(KJV)
·         There is a difference between mysteries and stories. Only the sons of God can access mysteries. Do not mistake stories for mysteries, stories are lifeless, but mysteries are things that are tangible, revealed by the Holy Spirit and can be applied to real life.

2.      Seek God in Prayers
Prayer draws the hand of God in a situation. It is the link that connects man to the throne-room of God. If you want to know the will of God in any situation, you must pray, you must ask Him.
Jeremiah 33:3 “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” (KJV)
·         A vision that is not proved is not a vision to be pursued. A word that is not tested is not a word to be relied upon. There is a part God has prepared for everyone born of Him. He forbids anyone turning from His path either to the right or left.

3.      Spiritual Sensitivity
An 8 years old child who is declared King only carries the title. He cannot make a decision. You can only enter the place God has for you when you outgrow childhood to son-ship.
The key to success is:
“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.”(KJV)John 5:30

Isaiah 30:21And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This [is] the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.(KJV)
