Yes, this term (Biblically Breaking Balls) was given to me recently by my husband In adoring love, because I always bring it back to The Truth In Love and that often means exposing sin in order to receive The Grace upon Grace. Truth be told, God has been so good to me, to redeem a self indulgent competitive spirit. God knows this took quite the chiseling. God opposes the proud but gives Grace to the humble.
Our flesh if given the opportunity will desire to be of the world, to stay comfortable and safe in our own little bubble. But Christian, you don’t belong there. You are made for more.
Most people desire a fake or a facade, I pray Lord for redemption…that means better out than in.
When sin comes barreling out of people, God has taught me to understand it (not tolerate or accept it), In Love. It’s a demonstration of God’s Grace, because Who wants more for His People to be exposed to their need for Jesus? But our reaction to sin (especially against us) is typically the complete opposite, we are offended, we tend to make it about us, and we have forgotten The Glorious Gospel.
Sometimes the Lord uses odd means to bring you to the place. Have you ever gotten into a Spirit filled scuff with someone and afterwards when you get with The Lord God responds it’s ok, go do what I asked you to do in the beginning. Yeah this is Gods grace to me every day. Hallelujah. Nothing is wasted, God Reigns
Is it a near death or nearer to Grace encounter? Father let me be transformed by the renewing of my mind, so that I know Your Perfect and Pleasing Will.
Let’s grow in the grace and knowledge of The Lord Jesus Christ today. If you are offended by your sin today, don’t you know Christ is more offended. And if Christ is more offended and has purchased You by His blood, is it not finished and forgiven? And pride keeps you from thinking God is greater so we must hold on to the whoas me and therefore keep on sinning. Is not the blood of Jesus that was shed for you enough so that you Rise?
When sin is exposed in me or against me, that is a grace to me.
Lets call a spade a spade
Is anxiety a sin?
No doubt we all struggle with this.
Lets dig deeper In The Well:
Is not the sin that continues to rise up in us, God’s Grace to us? Do we not believe that where sin abounds, grace abounds much much more?
Why is it wrong to confess that yes it is indeed a sin? There are people struggling everyday around us searching for answers, does not His Blood cover?
If we do not believe it is a sin, as we go about our day among people, we will miss opportunities to proclaim and pray His grace that to acknowledge this as sin is by The Grace of God. It is not condemnation, it is Freedom In Christ and where The Spirit of The Lord is there is freedom.
