And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying,
All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

 20
Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you
: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Abundant Grace

 

The eWORD – Abundant Grace

 

7 July 2013 @ S T C

 

Dr Stanley L Scott

 

Introduction:

 

I want to be sure to understand where you are so that I can speak God’s Word to lift us to where He wants us to be.

 

Today’s main focus will call us to look for and embrace the life of God in us!

 

The life of God gives power to us to face and conquer any and every issue that pulls for our attention and emotions.

 

The passage that we will study gives an unequaled declaration that no matter the condition, the Life of God brings His Glory!

 

Let’s go…

 

Main Text:

 

2 Corinthians 4:8-18

 

-The real deal

 

8
We are troubled on every side, yet
not distressed; we are perplexed, but
not in despair;

 

 9
Persecuted, but
not forsaken; cast down, but
not destroyed;

 

-Dying to live

 

 10
Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that
the life also of Jesus
might be made manifest in our body.

 

 11
For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that
the life also of Jesus
might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

 

 12
So then death worketh in us, but
life in you.

 

-Always back to believing

 

 13
We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I
believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also
believe, and therefore speak;

 

-We are in good company for sure

 

 14
Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and
shall present us with you.

 

-How sweet the sound

 

 15
For all things are for your sakes, that
the abundant grace
might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.

 

-Tomorrow is another new man day

 

 16
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet
the inward man is renewed day by day.

 

-Call it what it is or is not

 

 17
For our
light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a
far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

 

-See beyond what you see

 

 18
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen:

 

for the things which are seen are temporal; but
the things which are not seen are eternal.

 

 

Teaching Point:

 

The biggest wow factor is to be who we already are, accept who we are and JUST BE!!!

 

 

Action Point:

 

To be or not to be is more than the question, it must become our way of life.

 

 

Determination Point:

 

We can “BE” because of what God and His Word said.

 

So now here we are back at determining what we really BELIEVE…

Yes, God Is Able

 

The eWORD – Yes, God Is Able

 

28 August 2001 @ Galilee / S T C

 

Dr Stanley L Scott

 

Introduction:

 

Old Testament bible stories are really strong demonstrations of God’s great power!

 

However, they are also filled with hard actions of very bad human behavior and the worst of human relationship failures.

 

Yet, in spite of all of that, you can find profound examples and principles of victory through God’s help.

 

Definition: Webster’s 1828 Dictionary Definition

 

ABLE, a. a’bl. [L. habitis]

1. Having physical power sufficient; having competent power or strength, bodily or mental;

2. Having strong or unusual powers of mind, or intellectual qualifications;

 

Webster’s 1913 Edition Dictionary Definition

 

Having sufficient power, strength, force, skill, means, or resources of any kind to accomplish the object;

 

In the story for this lesson, this king had some victories, but in the end lost his life because overall his heart was not completely set to follow God and he also rejected the advice of the man that God sent to him.

 

Main Text:

 

2 Chronicles 25:2 – And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.

 

2 Chronicles 25:9 – And Amaziah said to the man of God, but what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this.

 

(Proverbs 10:22 – The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.)

 

We can look at this Old Testament story and consider the truth that was put forth from the man of god and find insight in the New Testament that can help us make determination to connect with God’s desire for us!

 

Support Text:

 

2 Corinthians 9:8 – And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

 

Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

 

 

Teaching Point: Human nature must always be controlled! We must submit to God’s power working in us, so that we can connect with and allow His power to help us accomplish the object!

 

Action Point: Study bible stories and find truth from the lessons that you can apply to help you develop confidence in God ability to work through you to make your life better!

 

Determination Point: Make up your mind, make the decision, set your heart to recover…win and stop losing… get on the blessing side of life!

 

CAN YOU DO THIS? Your answer should be YES!!! WHY…Because GOD IS ABLE!!!

 

God Bless,

 

The Rev Dr

Dr Stanley L Scott

 

Introduction:

 

Your attitude about the things of God, will always impact your ability to receive from God’s Word. CHECK IT!!!

 

A good testing place is to take note of how you deal with “church” or “hearing the Word”. Ask yourself or think about how important is it? How easily do you allow “other things” to make you choose them?

 

The main point, challenge, encouragement, today is that I invite you to accept (believe) the power that the Father gives us through Jesus.

 

THEN:

 

Study all you can about it, to know what it is.

Receive it.

Put it into action in your life!
