ARISE & SEE! #2

Image
I slipped and fell on my deck’s ramp last year. I grabbed onto  the railing so I could support  myself, but slid back down. I  sat there for a moment while figured out the problem.Then I realized that the deck ramp  was covered in black ice. The deck’s railing was covered in  a sheet of ice.   I had to hold  onto the posts and crawl to  the covered deck area.  I thanked the Lord! I had  no broken bones.Some of my friends that suffered hip fractures when they  fell on slick surfaces.   Today, I want to share some scriptures  that discuss people who were healed by Jesus! They had been disabled but arose and walked after their healing.     LIFE LESSON: JESUS HEALED THEM & THEY AROSE! MATTHEW 9:4-7, 9 4 But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your  sins are forgiven you,’ or to say,

DEPICTION: REBEKAH & SERVANT GENESIS 24:51-54 51 Here is Rebekah before you; take her and go, and let her be  your master’s son’s wife, as the  Lord has spoken.” 52 And it came to pass, when  Abraham’s servant heard their  words, that he worshiped the  Lord, bowin

THE GRACE EXPERIENCE! # 5

There is one thing that I’ve learned  as I have gotten older, I need God’s grace!  God’s grace has saved me  from a lot of tragedies. I’ve been saved from near missed head on collisions, lightening strikes, fatal  falls, and house fires.  I have made terrible decisions but  His grace and favor saved me! My  daily prayers include requests for His wisdom and grace.   This week I share some scriptures  about grace. The biblical meaning of grace is the unmerited favor of God. Grace is used more than 140 times.   Today will share scriptures that discuss receiving the grace of God.   LIFE LESSON: EXPERIENCE THE GRACE OF THE LORD GOD.

ACTS 13:43 Now when the congregation had broken up, many of the   Jews and
