Grace FIRST!
AUGUST 27 & 28, 2022
Daily Reading – Psa. 103-105 / 1 Co. 1
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
1 Corinthians 1:3 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
In Paul’s letters to the churches, we find a common thread in his greetings to them. He opens with grace first and follows with peace. For example, we read in, 1 Corinthians 1:3 “Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.” This is not a just a habit in grammar for Paul. It is his belief in the truth that grace precedes peace.
Paul also wrote Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:” You see, without God’s grace there would be no salvation. Without salvation, there can be no lasting peace. Grace must always come first before any real peace.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Isn’t God’s grace amazing?
WHAT TO DO ON SUNDAY:
On Sundays, we encourage you to attend your local church and listen intently to what God has prepared in the heart of your Pastor. Write down all the scriptures he uses in that message, then, when you get home re-read those passages for today’s reading. God has given to your Pastor exactly what He desires for you on that day.
