Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith and this is not from yourselves it's the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast.
Proverbs 8:33 Hear instruction, and be wise and refuse it not.
Psalms 37:5 Commit your way to unto the Lord trust also in him and he shall bring it to pass.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 In everything give thanks, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
I wanted to share a Spoken Word inspired by Ephesians 2:8-10 8 For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God; 9 not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] boast or take credit in any way [for his salvation]. 10 For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].
Matthew 9:10-13 10 Then as Jesus was reclining at the table in Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners [including non-observant Jews] came and ate with Him and His disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked His disciples, “Why does your Master eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 But when Jesus heard this, He said, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but [only] those who are sick. 13 Go and learn what this[Scripture] means: ‘I desire compassion [for those in distress], and not [animal] sacrifice,’ for I did not come to call [to repentance] the [self-proclaimed] righteous [who see no need to change], but sinners[those who recognize their sin and actively seek forgiveness].”
Romans 3;38-39 38 For I am convinced [and continue to be convinced—beyond any doubt] that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Exodus 32:1-10 shows us how people turn their backs on God and make plans for themselves. An idol is anything you put before God and treat it as if it is God. Listen to how we can apply this chapter to our daily living.
Exodus 18 shares who gave Moses wise counsel and why he needed it. Moses was blessed to have someone tell him how to preserve his strength for the great assignment he was given.
Behaviors can be positive or negative overlapping generationally. When you run into family problems there might be a family feud. In Genesis chapters 27-36 we see some family problems surface. The generational behaviors of Rebekah, Jacob and Laban reveals how God changes a messy situation into working things out for Jacob's good.
