Not By Works Of Righteousness

Not By Works Of Righteousness
Ruby and I were worshiping the Lord this morning as we shared with
each other some great things the Lord did with and for us as we began
our walk in the Spirit with the Lord 50 years ago this year. I had
Ruby sing an old song we sang together years ago entitled: COMPLETE
–COMPLETE- COMPLETE IN HIM. You can go into the internet and type in
this title and hear several groups singing this awesome song.
“Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit,
according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles
of the world, and not according to Christ. For in Him dwells all the
fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is
the head of all principality and power.” Colossians 2:8-10
Praise God for His free gift of righteousness to us when we accepted
Jesus as our Savior. This stays the same all of our lives. Sure, we
can learn more about our free righteousness as we walk with Him. The
Lord so blessed us with our four sons back at the beginning of our
walk with Him in the Spirit. In the song Ruby sang this morning has
this sentence in it that is so important for us to grasp and walk in.
NOT BY WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS BUT BY HIS GRACE ALONE.
Our oldest son was eleven years old and he was so blessed by the Lord.
We had a cow that was a lot of trouble to get to the barn each
morning for this son to milk before he went to school. He had us pray
together for the Lord to have our cow at the barn so he would not
have to go out into the field to make her come to the barn. He went
out to milk her and saw her running towards the barn knowing that an
angel was forcing her to come forth. This went on day after day. Most
days when he arrived at the barn she was waiting on him. A few times
she had to run forth to the barn.
“No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your
dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in
all your ways.” Psalms 91:10-11
When Ruby and I moved over to Israel the Lord had us read this whole
chapter and believe it from the get go. Glory! We lived seven years
in the West Bank of Israel and never had a problem with the Arabs. A
local Christian had led 200 of the Arabs to the Lord and it was a
great joy to work with some of them with my Spirit of
Entrepreneurship.
This gift that the Lord gave me has worked great in my four sons to
begin with and over the years I have had the anointing to work with
many folks in their walk with the Lord in whatever they are doing. Be
glad to pray for you in this matter if you so desire. May our God of
love, mercy and grace reach out to you every day as you walk with Him.
