"But by the grace of God I am what I am" (1Co 15:10)
The apostle Paul considered himself the least of the apostles who was not worthy to be called one because he persecuted the church of God. Yet our Lord mightily uses him. Many of us feel the same thinking that we are nobody and unworthy to be used by God. But by the Grace of God, we are a new creation. Now we are in Christ... that's what we are. We must let go our old selves and let Grace takes over our new life. Then God can use us. The end of man is the beginning of Christ! Hear Him!

God is love
"And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing." (1Co 13:3)
We all are called on this journey to be witnesses of Christ (Acts 1:8), to make disciples of all the nations (Mat 28:19). Many felt that burden but it shouldn't be because His yoke is easy and His burden is light (Mat 11:30). On this journey as we walk with Him, we are becoming more like Him each day (2Co 3:18) and through His love we become His witnesses of Love to the world to make disciples. Hear Him!

The Word is God
"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." (Mat 6:33)
This is indeed one of the most important verse in the Word of God. What then is the kingdom of God and His righteousness? The kingdom is in Him in the Word... in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1). His righteousness is within us as we are in Christ (believers). Always seek Him through His Word and hear Him by revelation!

Act in Faith
"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God," (Eph 2:8)
If we are saved by Grace alone then the whole world is saved. No, faith has a role too. One needs to believe for it to work. Likewise our prayers have been answered by Grace whenever we prayed but we need to act in faith to see the manifestation. If you pray for healing then act healed. If you pray for financial blessing then act rich. Hear Him!

Store up our treasure in heaven
"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." (Mat 6:21)
Jesus said "... whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Mat 16:19). Be wise with our worldly wealth and sow them unto the Kingdom of God. Hear Him!

Giving by the act of Love
"Give, and it shall be given unto you..." (Luk 6:38)
Giving is the way to prosperity but by love not selfishness. If we give because we want more for ourselves (tree of knowledge of good and evil) then we give in vain. If we give because of love or compassion (tree of life) then it will return many folds. Say "Lord, I give and more shall be given back for me to give again." Hear Him!

Enter into His rest!
"For we who have believed do enter that rest..." (Heb 4:3)
What have we believed? We believed in the finished work of Jesus Christ and there is nothing left for God or us to do anymore. What is that rest? It is His rest. His promised land for us that everything is provided by Grace. We must believe and rest in His promised land and don't be like the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness forty years not able to enter the promised land (Num 32:13) because of unbelief.
