✨Wednesday Word of Wisdom✨

“Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”
‭‭~ Hebrews‬ ‭4‬:‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

When we come to the Father there is no need for us to be timid. We are to approach His throne with a reverence of true respect, praise, appreciation, and love.

When we do so we help prepare a space for God to hear us and for us to hear Him.

God’s grace is everlasting. It comes when we least expect and is ALWAYS on time.

Thank you Lord for being so gracious to us despite our shortcomings.

Ask Job! Life has its ebs & flow and even in the midst of those seasons God still remains faithful.

Faithful in the sunshine. Faithful in the rain. Faithful during pain. Faithful in our gain.

Don’t turn your back on God in the high seasons or low seasons. He has not and will not turn His back on you!

Scriptures to meditate on:
~ Hebrews 10:23
~ 2 Timothy 2:13
~ Deuteronomy 7:9
~ Lamentations 3:22-23

✨Wednesday Word of Wisdom✨

“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”
‭‭~ Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭32‬ ‭NIV‬‬

You can’t forgive someone begrudgingly. Why? Because Biblical forgiveness is rooted in a spirit of kindness and compassion.

To forgive with a kind and compassionate heart is to be selfless, just as Christ was and continues to be selfless towards us as He forgives our sins.

Forgiveness isn’t a straight line process. Many things will cause us pain that will have us reconsidering if we should forgive someone or not.

Let me reassure you, no matter how deep the pain, how wrong someone does you, or who does you wrong, if you are a child of God, a born again believer in Jesus Christ… forgiveness is MANDATORY.

I pray that God prepares our heart, mind, and soul for true Biblical forgiveness!

We don’t deserve it. We can never earn it. But thanks be to God for sending His only Son to die for us so that His favor, His grace, and His mercy can cover us.

Those times when you think you were “lucky”, that wasn’t luck, that was God extended favor over your life.

Comment “I’ve been favored” if you’ve been covered by God before !

“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”
‭‭~ Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

We all (yes you!) at some point in time will be the reason for someone having a grievance (issue) with you. It’s inevitable!

But that is okay because we have an opportunity in that moment to get it right.

How do we do that?

1. If we are the offender - look in the mirror analyze your error(s). Apologize, genuinely. And seek forgiveness & reconciliation !

2. If you are the offended - speak about your grievance(s) to the person who offended you, with respect. Listen. FORGIVE. Even if they don’t ask you for forgiveness.

We are to forgive just as Christ forgave us. Don’t let unforgivness cause you to miss out on reconciliation, God’s blessings, and most importantly Heaven!

Who do you need to forgive?

Not some, not one. EVERY season means ALL seasons!

God has proven time and time again that he is faithful to His children in every season no matter how beautiful it is or how bleek it may seem.

Noah, the children of Israel, Hannah, the 12 disciples, Job, Joseph, the list goes on.

God was faithful to all those individuals and more in different seasons of their life.

Don’t let the changing of seasons change your heart posture towards Christ. His heart doesn’t change towards you.

“Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.”
‭‭~ Psalms‬ ‭36‬:‭5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.”
‭‭~ Psalms‬ ‭103‬:‭12‬ ‭NIV‬‬

As far as you can see with your own eye, beyond that point and even further, that still cannot describe the level of God’s forgiveness which He exercises towards us.

We read in the Old & New Testament the amount of grace, mercy, and forgiveness He displays to those who step out of His will and way.

Family I encourage us to embrace God’s forgiveness. The sins and transgressions we find ourselves in can be heavy and discouraging. BUT thanks be to God for His tender mercy and His ways of forgiveness. Now this doesn’t mean we willfully sin and go against His Word. We must be diligent in devotion to Him. Devotion in thought, word and action.

Forgive, forgive, forgive. Because God has forgiven and continues to forgive us!

Praise is what WE DO at TCLM!

Now some may ask, what motivates us to praise God?

The list is endless but here are a few reasons:
• His unconditional love towards us.
• His mercy & grace He extends to us.
• His ability to make a way when things seem impossible.
• He has healed sickness & disease.
• His compassion & forgiveness is life changing.

Shall we go on?

Family & friends, we encourage you to lift your hands in worship to Christ today, tomorrow, and this entire week.

He does so much for us that we don’t deserve. Praising and worshiping Him is the least we can do!

Thank you Lord!!

Ps 150:1-6
“Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens.”

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”
‭‭~ 1 John‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Let’s break this verse down!

“IF WE” - this is the beginning of a conditional, not guaranteed action that this is inclusive of EVERY HUMAN. The “IF” displays free will.

“CONFESS OUR SINS” - inclusive of us all once again. No one is exempt from the sinful ways of our human nature. Confession is to own up, take accountability!

“HE IS FAITHFUL” - Jesus Christ = HE. Faithful is dedication. “IS” = being.

“AND JUST, AND WILL FORGIVE US OF OUR SINS”
God is fair and He will be gracious enough to pardon ALL of our sins.

“AND PURIFY US OF ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS”
God will cleanse us of our filthy ways! He will clean us up and put us in a place righteousness because of His love for us.

Friends & family. If you take nothing from this verse take these 3 things:

1. Forgive yourself & forgive others for the sins committed against you & towards others.

2. Confess your sins to Christ. Take accountability. Release the burden and weight of unforgiveness.

3. Give your life to Christ. He will purify you and place a new spirit in you. Not because you earned it but because He loves you!

““There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:” ~ Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The Creator of time has it all under control. We have all been guilty of wanting something sooner than we received it like a child when they want their parent to get them their favorite toy or go to McDonald’s 😂.

Nonetheless, let us be encouraged, patient, and hopeful for what the Lord has in store for us! His timing is perfect 100% of the time. There are so many examples of people in the Bible being restored and getting what they needed right when they needed it.

We got this family. God got us !!
