7/16/2011 - LJ "Amazing Praise and Grace"

Scripture:
Hebrew: 13: 15-16 "Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name. And do not neglect doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is pleased." (NASB)

Observation:
Blood of sacrifice (animal and etc), we do not live in that time, God has poured out the sacrificial blood to cleanse us, hence we are to praise his name and his high with out lips and kindness to outside our community, praising and sharing with those outside our comfort zone. We are cleanse through his blood, and rather for sacrifice of animal blood, it is obvious and given pleasure to God's ear when we bring praise in his name and is much more blessing in our God's eye and ear.  God does not want us to forget to share the goods with outside our comfort zone. God is not please for sake of animal blood sacrifice but God is please when we bring in different praises of his name and giving thanks to his name.

Application:
It is difficult in this society to share God, when we live in politically challenged environment. When religion is spoken with such delicacy. But fear nothing, for God is fearless (Hebrew 13: 6 "THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?”) God will bring the answers in all circumstances. But if as I speak I want to praise and love God, I shall not fear and go and share our Father's amazing love to those outside my community. God doesn't ask that we go out to public and preach to entire community. But as long as I take my time to share one by one and influence individuals at times, that is much greater praise and blessing.

Prayer:
Father give me the strength and help me to be fearless and trust all in your amazing plans. Father guide me shine upon me the corrective paths to share your amazing love and grace with those outside my community. Father to show the taste of your goodness and blessing. Father, no one can hurt you, I trust in you that your praise will bring conviction to those who are lost and is in search of you, and find strength in you.
