    It's handy to see G R A C E as an acronym: G od's R iches A t C hrist's E xpense.

    Though this definition does tend to limit a full understanding (if we can even hope to have) of God's great Grace, it does serve to show us that it is because of what Christ has done for us, as undeserving as we are (and is doing for us now in Heaven), that we enjoy His Favour each day right into eternity.

    Our God is God of Mercy (Mercy to all people) - and that Mercy translates into Grace (as an expression of God's Mercy). And that Grace is received by us, those who have responded to His Gift of Salvation.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Grace is unmerited favor from God. We don't earn it or deserve it; but God chooses to bless us with it.
  • Jesse - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Grace is the expression of God's character.
  • Ervin clarke on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Grace. What is grace?
  • Carleton - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Yes, His Ark is much nicer than a man-made fearful bunker.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    I'll write more later. I'm child sitting my grandson today.

    Read on Noah's Ark. Jesus is our modern ARK. Be inside of Him. You will be ok. That's all you need to focus on.

    I've recently woken up and seen some of what is truly going on around us,I'm sure I'm just now beginning to scratch the surface of things that I need to know and need to understand,but I'm doing my research everyday all day long and I share as much as I possibly can with people "where it allows me to that is "and I'll continue to do that! I don't want it to seem like I'm trying to make up ANY EXCUSES for myself not understanding the bible. But I am a 31 year old who has been on medication for my ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder ) & ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder ) since before I was in Kindergarten. I don't understand things very easily or clearly no matter how simple it is, it may be easy to you or someone else though. So please don't think I don't want to understand it or don't think I haven't tried. But I'm trying to get in a group of godly people,I want to live for Jesus and help fight this war "If that's what you'd call it". I don't know if this will get so bad that we'll need a underground bunker to stay in to be able to survive in this world or not for a while. But I don't have that kind of money or that kind of connections or friends that I can turn to if things gets bad,its just my husband and myself and us believing in Jesus and having him walk beside us. But I need guidance, I need knowledge, and understanding and support on how and what to do,not just this second or the next few days or weeks. I'm talking about until whenever the end of all this is, not only to help guide myself and my husband but for us to be there in a mass gathering of God's people and to help protect one another and help other people in any way that I can an have them as my family and be by there side through this just as they'd be there to be by my side through this . I'm not trying to join or form a group of people,im just trying to join or form a group that's the right group,the group that stands up for God and fights to protect each others life and follow Jesus!

    Thank you so much for praying for my mother. She underwent surgery that lasted 9 hours. She is recovering in the ICU. I praise God for people like you who are willing to pray for people in need of some blessing, a miracle. I believe your prayers have moved the heart of the Lord Jesus to heal her. I ask you to continue praying that she will no longer be at risk of life and be healed. Thank you very, very much. May Jesus bless you more and more, amen. Alex
  • Spiritual Warfare - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    I (Jesus) am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

    The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I (Jesus) am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

    I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd (Jesus) giveth his life for the sheep.

    You will find your armor in Ephesians 6. Put it on; every piece. Jesus provided it to you. Demons are invisible, but you can tell they're hanging around by their "fruit". Righteous anger is ok so long as it's aimed at demons; fear brings in his buddies 'torments'. That's what they're doing to you. 'Hindering, harassing, and more.

    You have to fight back in the power and holiness of Jesus's Name. If you say, Jesus Christ of Nazareth they'll know they have to leave. You're going to have to get more Bible into you to enforce their permanent departure.

    If you have anything in your home that could be considered an idol, occult, bad books or movies: they consider those to be doorways so they can come back. Get rid of all of it.

    You must be born again and received the indwelling Holy Spirit of God. John 3. They cannot get into you because of the Holy Spirit. You're ok. Do not fear. Fight back.

    Say: in The Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, by the authority He has given me, I BIND your works (ask the Holy Spirit to give you the names), and I cast you into dry places to wander.

    "I pray and ask for angels to come guard all openings and doors to prevent demonic entrance." And THANK YOU JESUS!!!

    I think you should go on YouTube and watch some Derek Prince spiritual warfare videos; and Charles Stanley is a good Teacher too.

    Once you know what's going on, you'll be able to handle things better. We're in a battle.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Jesus heal and touch Alex's mother right where she is. Give skill to her surgeons hands and discernment on her condition.

    Help the family to hold onto Faith and to rebuke those spirits of fear and confusion. Keep them in Your Healing Hands and be Lord over her recovery which will be speedy. Faithful is He that promised; and Faithful is He that will do it.
  • Lydia - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Thanks a lot Kim!!! Praying for you too.
  • Kim B - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Flossy my prayers are with you. I also suffer from anxiety and depression, and am on meds, we were going through trials and I couldn't stop crying, everything kept hitting us from every side, so I started looking up scripture on depression and anxiety and trails and watching every video from Charles Stanley on what I was going through I kept reading and reading and reading some more and pray pray pray and pray some more keep your eyes and mind on God. He has delivered me, I'm still on my meds but He has given me a peace that surpasses all understanding. Ask God to search your heart for anything that could be hindering your walk with Him. Make sure there is sin you have forgotten to repent for and you have truly forgiven anyone who has hurt you or you have anything against. This all can hinder your prayers, your walk with Him and it can also hinder your prayers. Surrender your life completely to Him seek Him with ALL your heart mind and soul. God puts us through trails for many reasons, either because of something we have done, sin in our lives, to get us to put our trust completely in Him or to get us ready for the next season of our lives. God has promised to never leave us or forsake us. It may seem like He like He's not there but He is. Keep your eyes, your mind and your heart on God and seek Him with ALL your heart and soul. God bless you and I pray for strength to get you through this season of your life.
  • Depression - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Go on YouTube and type in:

    Spiritual warfare depression

    Listen to Derek Prince and some of the others. There are lots.

    Depression is demonic. How it got in is usually from what we confess over ourselves. You need to fill yourself up on more Bible. Read it out loud and make that demon listen to it too.

    I'm in agreement with you in the name of Jesus that you have the mind of Christ, and infirmity and depression have NO dominion over you! You must leave her and go into dry places and stay there! In Jesus Name!
  • Mishael on Health and Healing warfare - In Reply on Matthew 24 - 5 years ago
    I'm getting up in age and I hear a suggestive voice say I'm falling apart, but I know that's a lying spirit. I don't receive that suggestion. I do what I see Jesus do in the scripture. He tells all those spirits to: LEAVE me. (Then send them to a place they despise) ... go into DRY places and stay there! In the glorious Name above all other names: Jesus! (It hurts their feet.)

    Harassment and Hindering go together like fire + brimstone. Call them both and send them out to the dry places.

    One good thing is that our faith in Jesus is being enlarged. We see how HE does it and we Copy what He does. I don't talk to them. I see their "fruit" and it gives me their names.

    Carman has a new CD of the old gospel tunes. You can play it on youtube. I make those spirits listen to gospel music all the time. They hate it and leave....because the angels love it. We hang out.

    Jesus gave us power from Him to tread on "serpents" and exercise authority over them. They don't have AUTHORITY to trouble us anymore; or cause illness (spirit of infirmity) or weakness (spirit of wasting).

    Someday we'll be in heaven skipping around like deer and all those demons will be in hell, bugging Satan. Praises to Jesus :D

    I'm going for a 15 minute walk to keep my muscles & tendons moving around like me.

    I'll keep you in my prayers for the Prayer Request room.
  • Standing in the Gap For THIS Nation on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Ezekiel 22

    23 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

    24 Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.

    25 There is a conspiracy of her prophets (Politicians?) in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.

    26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between THE HOLY AND THE PROFANE and neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

    27 Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get DISHONEST GAIN.

    28 And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath NOT spoken.

    29 The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully.

    30 And I sought for a man among them, that should MAKE UP THE HEDGE, and STAND IN THE GAP BEFORE ME for the land, that I should not destroy it: BUT I FOUND NONE.

    31 Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord GOD.

    Comment by Mishael: No one really teaches different kinds of prayer anymore. The kind where you spend Friday nights in Church, interceding and doing some warfare: for their Church, the community, the Governor, the President, everyone loves to hate.

    Standing in the gap: means there's a hole in the wall & someone stands in it till it's fixed secure.

    Will someone teach that?!!!!
  • Judy Jasmin - In Reply on Matthew 24 - 5 years ago
    You are so right on. My left hip has bothered me for years. It used to be in my right hip but moved to the left side! That's why I know it's a spirit. Cause upon being prayed for it moved to the left side. So I'm using your prayer to take it down. Thanks and God bless.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Thanks for the info. I'm going to look that up.

    I preach against abortion frequently. I tried to appeal to our greedy sides: that America is aborting FUTURE taxpayers that would be alive, educated, earning income and paying taxes; so that those of us that bought into that silly dream; could retire and eat.

    It might have worked except people are having their futures scraped out. Many years ago a friend admitted she had 6 previous abortions and asked me to give her a ride to get #7 !! I begged her to let me adopt her child! She refused me, so I refused her. Broke my heart. I wept before the Lord till I ran dry. I asked Him when He would stop the murders? I'm crying again.

    He said He would take care of it. I'm looking...but people don't seem to care.

    No legislation passes Congress. They will have to give an account for it someday.

    I preached that all those little babies are in heaven NOW. Anyone who ever had an abortion, will see their child with their Heavenly Father. It's the only peace I have concerning this.

    Please keep letting people know what their babies bodies were used for.
  • Gracelyn Fletcher - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    The entire bible is the word of God. One of Jesus many names is The word of God. Therefore all of the word is equally important and worthy of studying.
  • Chris - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Ness, it's true that the apostle Paul was called to preach the Gospel & teach the Gentiles ( Rom 11:13, 1 Tim 1:7, 2 Tim 1:11).

    To "rightly divide the Word" essentially means that when we consider a verse, or a portion of Scripture, we should examine it further to make sure that our initial understanding of it aligns with what the other relevant Scriptures in the Bible also tell us about it. There are of course other aspects to the meaning of this phrase, but basically God requires us to handle His Word correctly, & that can only come by the Holy Spirit's guidance & knowledge of the Word. That is why a believer needs to read the whole Word of God & not just 'favourite' Books of the Bible.

    True, a lot of the Old Testament was written about matters affecting the Jewish heritage & their position before God, but they are not to be avoided by Christians for "ALL scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." ( 2 Tim 3:16,17). We get immense benefit in knowing & understanding the whole Old Testament for that is how we learn of Israel's history & more importantly, about the God Whom we serve. And after all, when we love someone, don't we want to know as much about that person as we can? So it should be our constant desire to know God our Father, Jesus His Son & His Spirit as much as we are able from the Scriptures & what He reveals to us in our daily experiences that causes us to love Him more & grow in our faith.

    Okay i will.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Write it down. This is spiritual warfare and sometimes you gotta fight it out till your faith gets involved.
  • Alexandra Phoebe Hoggatt - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Okay. I will pray out the payer and see if the spirit leaves my spine.
  • Jim on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Jesus told his disciples, let no man deceive, you. Many false prophet's will come in Jesus name and deceive many. My brother and sisters, the devil desire is to sift us and wheat.to brake us down,and turn us away from God. Don't give in to your worldly desires,the you do so the more of the world you become. God is at war with what the world has to offer his people. If you love what this world to offer, God to you is a passing memory you; that mean you are at war with God. Satan can't win. When he is defeated, and cast into hell; The lovers of this world will be cast into hell also. In reference to Matthew chap 24
  • John on Matthew 24:36 - 5 years ago
    No man knows the day or hour, but as to the year, I speculate around 2030.The 5G network or 7G? may be the limit to man's technology, but who knows? why wait. It's best to prepare in case that day or hour comes unexpectedly. Just like a thief in the night. The clock is ticking. It already started when eve made her most lethal mistake in the garden of Eden.
  • Alex on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Gbu mishael thats a good prayer to fight the devil for pain in your body .
  • Sunday Levinus Alaka on Matthew 24:36 - 5 years ago
    Though our present day rivals Noah's in corruption and evil, this meaning of Matthew 24:36-39 is actually the secondary interpretation. The primary meaning is more simple: Christ would come at a time when most of the world was busy doing its normal activities.
  • Ness on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Is Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles? 2 Timothy 2:15 it says to study and rightly divide the word of truth. "rightly dividing" to mean we should cut the Bible up into the parts meant for Israel and the parts meant for the Church, and only focus on the parts meant for us. is these the right interpretation to about confusion on the scripture?
  • John L - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Mishael,

    I enjoy reading your comments, and agree with much of what you say concerning the various topics you discuss.

    I would, however, have to disagree with your assessment concerning vaccines.

    Vaccines use aborted fetal tissue (among many other horrible and debilitating chemicals) and may be the leading reason for Autism, auto immune disorders, etc. in the U.S.

    Vaccines are a leading reason as to why the United States is one of the most disease riddled countries in the world.

    A small amount of research into the adverse effects of vaccines and the chemicals used in them might be advisable before recommending people get them.

    (If you do research it, don't use the website "pintrest" as 4 months ago they announced that they will not display any anti-vaccine articles or comments. Why? Very powerful pharmaceutical companies!
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    Pray this Copy it down too

    In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth

    I plead the Holy Blood of Jesus from the top of my head to the soles of my feet.

    I command the spirit of infirmity to leave my body now! In the name of Jesus, I release life and flexibility into my spine!

    I command pain to loose and leave now!

    I command doubt and confusion to leave.

    I ask for angels to assist these spirits to go into outer darkness or dry empty places.

    I will stand now and praise my Lord Jesus.

    AMEN, SO BE IT. HALLELUJAH JESUS

    You will have to pray this every time pain returns. It's a LYING spirit trying to regain entrance. You may have to get loud. It works for me!

    Two weeks ago I was healed of bone problems in my hip. I kept striking back and now I have no pain! Let your faith get rowdy and give God all the Glory.
  • It39s Not Bad Luck It39s Satan seeking whom he may Devour - In Reply on Matthew 24:9 - 5 years ago
    There are many videos on youtube about spiritual warfare just waiting on anyone who is asking the air, "WHAT is going on!?!?

    Satan is a very bad devil who majors in hurting Gods family. He sends in the demons to do their worst.

    You've Got to really start slamming down some Bible scripture inside you both.

    The Lords Prayer speaks of: lead us not into temptation and DELIVER us from the EVIL.

    You're on satans radar, so you are going to have to learn what Ephesians 6 is all about. Click on that link.

    Now go on YouTube and watch videos about SPIRITUAL WARFARE. Some are scriptures and some are sermons on how to fight off demons. Start with Derek Prince; you and your friend.

    Go through your house and destroy anything you feel the Holy Spirit pointing at. Clear out worldly useless stuff that has nothing to do with God and living for heaven. Demons use it to get a toe in the door. Shut Those Doors! Don't be scared. You have authority to do this and demons know it. Holy righteous anger is allowed. Just point it at the perpetrators of pain and suffering.
