Partnership letter
Victory By the Grace of God
From the desk of Pastor Sing
Greetings to all my precious Partners in Christ Jesus our Lord. This month I would like to share with you along the lines of my New Years Message entitled, “Victory By the Grace of God”
My Scripture References are as follows:
Genesis 6:5-8 (KJV) “And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.”
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
Allow me now to share some beautiful thoughts along these lines. We cannot save or help ourselves. God alone can help us and He saves us by Grace through our Faith. Grace is unmerited favor. Further, we must live Holy lives so that we can find help in the time of need.
Hebrews 4:16 “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”
For every Storm and Challenge you will face in 2011, there is sufficient Grace for you at the Throne. Going to God's Throne will end your Storms. True Faith and God's Grace will deliver you. Grace comes from the Father. We also find that Great Grace were on all who were at Rome that were believers. (See 1 Cor 1:3-4) Great Grace rested on the Believers abundantly. (See Rom 5:17) Faith is the door to Grace.
I urge you to make some serious decisions this year.
Refuse to be defeated in 2011.
Decide that you will not quit in 2011.
Take your stand in Grace in 2011.
Resist satan and his thoughts in 2011.
Decide to speak words of Grace in 2011.
Decide that you will be strong in Grace in 2011.
Now let us consider Seven Keys to Victory as we go into the New Year, 2011.
Proverbs 24: 3-4 (TLB) “Any enterprise is built by wise planning, becomes strong through common sense, and profits wonderfully by keeping abreast of the facts.”
Key No. 1: Victory begins with Vision:
You must have a vision of winning. Push aside your problems and behave like victors before the contest.
Key No. 2: Instruction:
Any achievement must be preceded by careful planning. The better we understand the problems, the greater the chance of Victory. When you possess the knowledge of the Tools, you are more likely to use them successfully.
Key No. 3: There is no success without proper Conditioning:
Victory is always to the winner. The winner is one that can work for longer periods of time without quitting. Have stamina and determination. Don't grow weary. Don't camp where you are, move on.
Key No. 4: Victory is realized when one has a target:
The thrill of Victory comes when a stated objective has been reached. Remember, no target, no victory. Have a stated goal. No Risk, No Fruit.
Key No. 5: Victory is secured with the help of others:
Begin to team up with others. Begin to work as a team. Begin to change your language to ‘Look at our plans, Look at our Victory’ etc.
Key No. 6: Each person must fulfill His / Her Responsibility:
Each person is important. We are counting on everybody, include other people. Plan their success, so that you will succeed.
Key No. 7: The last and most important Key to Victory, is YOU:
You have the Power, to determine the sacrifice, energy and time that you will supply to be a winner. Only you can make the difference. What is it going to be for 2011, Victory or Defeat? God is counting on you. People around you are counting on you.
“And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.”
May God continue to richly bless you and your family. I pray for you daily and take pleasure in seeing you enjoy God’s blessings. May Victory by the Grace of God be your portion for this month and the rest of 2011.
We Love You very Much,Pastors Roshan and Zubeda Sing
