Proverbs 4:20‭-‬23
My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

The word of God requires attention. If you are not careful, the word you were excited about yesterday will be nonexistent tomorrow. Attention is important for retention...

The love of God is proactive. God always initiates, even if some people won’t accept. Before we knew we needed salvation, He already took a step.

The manifestation of the Spirit is meant to be orderly. As powerful as the Spirit is, the manifestation of the Spirit is meant to be under control. The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 1 Corinthians 14:32

In 1 Thessalonians 5:19, Paul said quench not the spirit...

Spiritual Gifts are not for a select few; every believer can work effortlessly in them.

Do you think healing is for a select few excluding you?  News Flash! God is willing and ever ready to heal you and he doesn't just heal, he empowers us to heal others.

Irrespective of situations, the believer is admonished to continue in doctrine, for it is able to strengthen him and preserve him in tough times.

One way to grow in the things of the spirit is listening to what you have been taught again and again.

It’s time to recalibrate!
To learn of the very proactive benevolence of God freely demonstrated in Christ.
We begin a new teaching series titled “GRACE IS”

What qualifies us for the grace of God?

Can we attain grace by our own efforts? Can we buy it with money? Is grace truly a FREE gift? If yes, how do we get this gift?
