Title: Obtaining Mercy and Finding Grace with Arch-Bishop Asa Gurupira
Scripture: Hebrews 4:15-16,
President Richard Watson was very famous because of a scandal, he had put the nation to disrepute and everyone was shunning him off because of what he had done.
We have a high priest who passed through everything and we can now come boldly to the throne of grace. Grace is unmerited favour. The mountain that we are climbing needs grace all the way through. In the book of genesis when Adam fell he needed the grace of God because what he had done needed the grace to cover him in that mess.
The sins you are doing today is because of that sinful nature. God gave us grace with the blood of animals but it would only cover us only for a year, and when God would see the blood he would forgive.
If you want to go far never think that it is your effort making things to happen. When you have the grace of God upon your life things become easy to do. They are different graces, grace of ministry, grace to pass through difficulties, grace to deliver what you are supposed to do, the grace of salvation. In James 4 the bible says he gives grace upon grace, he said in his word he resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
God did not start to work in you now but when you were still sinning he preserved you. Some of you are still shocked how you made it out of accidents prison, how God preserved you in difficulties. The grace started way back when you were still sinning, because of the purposes of God that he placed upon your life. You are not alive today because of wisdom but it is about the purposes of God in your life. When you start fulfilling the purpose of God you begin to receive grace upon grace.
How can you maintain grace?
There is a position in the child of God that enables grace to be poured. If it is by works then grace is no longer involved. Sometimes God gives grace for a specific function. You were born for a specific mission but you need grace to fulfil it.
God doesn’t wait for rumbling. Gideon was coming from a background where there was nothing and was the least in the whole tribe but God said you can go.
