The Gathering On The Rock

'Grace is a Ruling Power' that releases the amazement of the Father's nature and character to us, regardless of our situation or circumstances. When Grace and Righteousness combine our hearts, then we become a partaker of the Father's divine nature.

Yeshua went to the cross to take from us all 'Worldly Negatives!' When we are more aware of sin than we are of the Father's kindness, goodness, grace, and love, then we cannot know the fullness of who He wants to be for us!

'Grace is about Freedom!' This means that we need to be free to process freedom through the nature of Father God and not the rules or behavior set by man. We will neutralize what the Spirit wants to be for us when we give no value to grace!

It is imperative for our growth that we develop a powerful attitude of "Partnering with the Grace Holy Spirit" is pouring into us.

When we are in Yeshua, and He is operating in us, then we get to experience life exactly as He Himself does. This is the very definition of Christ in you, the hope {expectation} of Yeshua's glory!

We need to have a "Positive Expectation of Father's Heart" toward us. Grace strengthens our hearts!

Today, we see that "Grace Empowers Us to Receive Mercy!" In Grace, the Spirit empowers us to overcome our past history by teaching us how to abound in Father's Presence!

"Grace is not an Argument." Instead, it is a lifestyle in Christ where you and anyone you meet can encounter Goodness, Loving Kindness, and Favor. In this way, it is a normal way to walk with Father God more in the ways of the Kingdom than the world.

'Hold to your Confession of Faith.' Not only does Yeshua live in you, but He truly knows everything about you. Yeshua, the One who knows you BEST and LOVES you the most!

It is important that we do not see ourselves as deficient, inadequate, poor in spirit, with limited resources, for this does not 'Honor the Father.' We have no lack in our life circumstances because we can never face the situation alone!

'Grace produces Strength' in the weakest places of our experience in Father God's goodness. We are created to be like the Godhead, strong, joyful, loving, and kind with the power to overcome!

'Grace is sufficient' for every circumstance and situation. Our sufficiency is Father's responsibility. Our authority in grace comes from the Father's permission for us to consider ourselves dead to sin and alive to Father God in Christ.

We are not to think more highly about ourselves that we ought to think. But we are to 'Think Highly of Ourselves!'

In grace, 'Jesus/Yeshua became poor so that we might become rich in His Identity!' Christ's grace will liberate us in true freedom.

'Grace creates more than enough to empower us to rise up and overcome!' Grace is a ruling power that creates the opposite of what legalism desires.

In this life, we are not learning about the grace to overcome. We are being taught to prevail and triumph in the way of righteousness. We never start a day with a deficit; we always start with sufficiency. 'We Have Power!'

Everything in our old life has been killed off. It has been taken away (on the cross) and buried (in the grace). We have risen up in the Newness of Life, and we now have a 'Brand New Identity!'

Today, we want to look at the concept that 'Yeshua's death governs our Behavior!' The death of Christ governs our behavior so that Grace and Righteousness together can establish our identity in the newness of life in Christ. The power of Grace and the supremacy of Righteousness, when combined and brought into the circumstances of our lives, will take us to a holiness that will astonish us!

It is true that most people only connect Grace with Sin. But when we understand that the 'Obedience of Yeshua has made us Righteousness' and that Grace rules through Righteousness, we can see that the issue is not sin. It is our failure to understand how Grace and Righteousness work in our lives to make us into the image that the Father sees when he looks at us.

We have always heard that it is Grace plus Nothing. While that may be true for our salvation, in order to be overcomers on earth, we need to combine Grace and Righteousness. The abundance of grace coupled with the gift of righteousness will bring us into a higher place of relationship with the Father!

We must understand that the 'Abundance of Grace' helps us to overcome all the consequences of transgression, condemnation, disobedience, and death; the outcome of one Man's (Yeshua's) obedience results in justification for everyone. Was the result of the free gift of righteousness plus an abundance of grace!'

'God's Glory is His Goodness' is the subject today. When we realize the language that the Godhead uses when speaking of Grace, it tells us the magnitude of what it means to Them on a personal level. The Father wants to lavish His love on us, and His goodness encompasses His grace!

Our 'Perception of Ourselves must Agree with Heaven's View!' If it does not, then we cannot walk with the Father properly as He desires. It becomes more difficult for us to receive what He wants to give us.

We need to 'Visualize Our Lifestyle' through the language that the Father is using to describe how He sees us! One must remember that you do not become a new person [creation] by changing your behavior.

With everyone looking for worth. We find that true 'Self-worth is found in Christ!' As we discover that the key elements of self-worth are the out-working of being in Christ.
