BEING GRACE CONSCIOUS

'And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.' - Romans 13 vs 11

Greetings to you dearly beloved of God in Christ Jesus. Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Lord is nudging the church - His body all around the world, as His coming draws nearer. This is a word straight from the heart of the Lord. Read and be re-positioned in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Our opening Bible passage gives us an information that our salvation is nearer than when we believed. In other words, that Bible passage says that the coming of the Lord is nearer. On the basis of this statement, an instruction was given by the Spirit of God, and what's that instruction? He says, “Awake out of Sleep!”

There is a call from the Spirit of God to all those who have received the free gift of righteousness with the evidence of the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, to awake from sleep; in other words, to be conscious of what they have received and hold on to it because the times are sensitive.

'And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.' - Luke 21 vs 34 {KJV}

You see the word there? lest that day come upon you unawares.

God doesn't want any of His kids to be left behind when He comes for us all, hence He is calling on us to awake to the righteousness of God. The miracle about this is this, The more conscious you are that you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, forgiven and having no judgment awaiting you, the more enabled and empowered you are to walk in the righteousness of God, the more you are able to shine the light of Christ. The problem is that many Christians hear the word of God, and go about not remembering the very image they saw in the mirror (the word of God). Let's see this:

'For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.' - Luke 1 vs 23 - 25 {KING JAMES VERSION}

That’s the exact definition of GRACE. It's not enough to just hear it that you have been forgiven eternally, made righteous freely, but you must hold on to it, always carrying it in your consciousness. You can never be conscious of righteousness and lead a sinful life. - Selah

The word of the Lord Jesus Christ is for real, the rapture will happen! Be prepared! If you live by this exhortation, that means you are staying prepared for His coming.

The times we are currently in call for the consciousness of God's grace. The Holy Ghost showed me a picture and said to me, "Imagine a Believer who is aged 104 years, such a Believer knows his time of departure is nigh him, hence, the consciousness such a Believer has of his salvation is so high, he is temperate in all things, nothing seems important but Jesus. Why? He knows his departure is close, he wants to be careful in his dealings." The Holy Ghost said, take that consciousness and make it a today's reality in your life. I say same to you. - Selah

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
