Scriptures used:

Subject:
- Grace makes all the difference.
- There is nothing we can do to make ourselves worthy of God‘s grace.
- That is why there are no entry requirements.
- When we realize that we have nothing to offer it is then that we can receive all the good things of God.
- When we receive the good things of God by grace we are then to freely minister them unto others because we know that we are no more deserving of those good things then the ones we are ministering unto.
- The Pharisees could not receive from God because they could not accept that they had nothing to offer. Instead they judged others. That is the place many of us come from until the Lord humbles us.
- Humility never “feels” good, but it is good. By contrast pride “feels” good but is not.
- Vermont is a state that is under heavy oppression. Let us join together in Christ this New Year to break that oppression by standing strong in the grace of God and ministering the same unto others.
