Open Heaven 27 May 2018 Bible Reading Genesis 6 :1-8

Wickedness in the World

6 When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them,

the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose.

Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with humans forever, for they are mortal; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.”

The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.

The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth,and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.

The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.

So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.”

But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.

Open Heaven 27 May 2018 Message

Grace I’d commonly used in the Bible to describe the demonstration of God’s goodwill towards mankind, embodied in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the effects of that goodwill on human lives. Throughout the Bible, God showed himself gracious in his dealings with mankind.

In the old testament, the grace of God is spoken of in relation to three overlapping terms, which are goodness, love and mercy. Each time the word ‘grace’ is used in the Bible, it connotes God’s goodness , love and mercy towards humanity. I pray that God will be gracious to you, and that you will continue to enjoy His grace throughout your life in Jesus’ Name. Open Heaven May 26 2018

God’s grace was responsible for Noah’s appointment into the special assignment that led to his entire family surviving the flood (Genesis 6:8). However, Psalm 145:9 says :

” The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.”

Although the application of God’s grace can be selective like in Noah’s case, its available to all the works of God. Everything that God created, both living and non living things, enjoy God’s grace. God upholds those who are falling and lifts up those who are bowed down by His grace.

RCCG Sunday School TEACHER’s Manual May 27th, 2018 Lesson 39

He opens His hands to supply all creatures their food and substances, thereby satisfying the desire of every living thing. God by his love and mercy provides for plants and animals alike , ensuring that whatever they need is made available within their reach.

After pondering the goodness of the Lord, the psalmist in Psalms 145 declared that God is near to those who call upon Him, and He meets all their needs by his grace. While speaking on the grace of God in several passages of the Bible, the Holy Spirit demonstrates that this grace is universal in nature. The Holy Spirit speaks about God’s providence in caring for all His creatures, His help for the needy, His love and compassion for the oppressed, and his concern for the sickly and the weak.

All these are demonstrations of Gods grace. Any one who is thoughtful would find abundant evidence of the steadfast love of the Lord demonstrated throughout the whole universe. That is why Psalms 150:6 says

“Let everything that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.”

God, by his grace , has counted us worthy to be chosen amongst the people of the world as His own special people, redeemed by the precious Blood of His Son, thereby making us His own special possession (1 Peter 2:9).

Obviously, God has not treated us according to what our evil deeds deserve. Our continued existence testifies to his redeeming grace , and this same grace provided the basis for our status as children of the Most High God. Let somebody shout hallelujah.

Open Heaven is one of the wonders on earth given by God’s inspiration in his divine will to express and duel in words among our generation, his exceptional Loved SON (Pastor E A Adeboye) was the instrument used as a pivot to convey the blessed information there in, to bring daily refreshment, reunion with Christ and redemption to mankind.
