Deuteronomy 2:1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount Seir many days. 2 And the LORD spake unto me, saying, 3 Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward. 4 And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir; and they shall be afraid of you: take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore: 5 Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession. 6 Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink. 7 For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.

Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Tgirl: Hello Brethren.


Titus 2:11-14
English Standard Version (ESV)
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, 13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.

Be Still...[/size]

Be still my soul, be still my soul
Cease from the labor and the toil
Refreshing springs of peace awaits
To troubled minds and hearts that ache

Be still my soul, God knows your ways
And He will guide for His Name sake
Plunge in the rivers of His grace
Rest in the arms of His embrace

Be still my soul, be still my soul
Though troubles round you rage and row
One thing you need and nothing more
To hear the whisper of His voice

[size=16pt]Be still my child, I know your ways
And I will guide for my Name sake
Plunge in the rivers of my grace
Rest in the arms of my embrace
[/size]
Be still my soul, God knows your ways
And He will guide for his Name sake
Plunge in the rivers of His grace
Rest in the arms of His embrace

And like a flood, His mercy reigns,
Unending love, Amazing grace. (C Tomlin)

DrummaBoy:

In this season of testimonies especially about what the grace of God has done in our lives. I wish to relate how the reality of the words in the above song by Don Moen came to me. I had been a few months old in the Lord and was basking in this wonderful grace of a life God had given me. This evening I came under a strong temptation. It is what some will call a little sin but it was real all the same. I fell to it; I sinned. Afterwards, I did some soul searching and I realized I had wronged God. So I asked God for forgiveness. But the guilt would not go.

There was I reeling under the weight of this guilt... and then somehow, someone had been playing the music of Don Moen and the above song was the last track on the tape. I think God was just merciful to me and made me to hear the words of the song. I listened, especially to the part enlarged above

Be still my child, I know your ways
And I will guide for my Name sake
Plunge in the rivers of my grace
Rest in the arms of my embrace

I understood I had been forgiven. I understood that I will sin again but that His blood will speak yet again. I understood that though I could be a recalcitrant child, I remain His child all the same. I understood the grace of God beyond what words can describe here. Maybe that is why I am so passionate about the gospel of grace. Every man that I know that is also, had had a similar brush with sin. Luther's discovery of Justification by Faith stemmed from his own struggle against sin. He told his no. 1 assistant Phillip Melachtony "sin lustly, that grace might abound". He was saying in effect until you know the feeling of having done wrong and finding God accept you in spite of, you will not be enjoying the abundance of the grace He has made available against sin. That is why also, I am very careful when preaching the sanctification message: we must never give the impression that godliness is something that comes from sheer will and effort - it is the outworking of the Spirit of grace in us.

God dealt a lasting blow to guilt in my life that night and so now I know what it is to approach the throne of grace to find help and mercy in times when I need it. I trust that this convention shall espouse more on doctrines like this one.

Uyi Iredia: Waiting for the convention. Make una organize sharpaly. Make the thread, put it on FP and start rallying Nairalanders ASAP.
