A Grace Moment with David Robinson

A Grace moment with David Robinson 

‘Touched by God’s grace’ 

Amazing Grace, amazing love, amazing gift. It’s the favour of God who stooped down in kindness and mercy to save and rescue broken mankind from the power of sin. 

It is God in Christ dying for the ungodly, God taking our infirmities and carrying our sicknesses, God in Christ suffering rejection and being despised for the ungodly, the worst of the worst and the best among us”¦ amazing grace that touches and every heart and heals every broken place in our lives.

Grace, Gods favour revealed in a stable among the poorest of the poor, revealed in love that reached out and touched the untouchable leper, grace that fed the hungry, delivered the demon possessed, and healed all of all diseases regardless of colour class or creed. Grace that had compassion on a widow whose only son had died, grace sufficient to raise him from the dead.

We are saved by grace through faith. God loved us so much that he even give us the gift of faith to believe in his grace, his favour and his desire to rescue us all. Ephesians 2:8

You may have been abused, rejected and have spent your life wondering what you did to deserve all that the world has thrown at you, please know this they threw it at Gods Son first and more. You may have led a life and it seems as though no one cares well; Jesus went through more on your behalf.

No one suffered like this man, God made manifest in the flesh, stricken, smitten, wounded, beaten, chastised, falsely accused, imprisoned, butchered, and murdered by the very people he came to seek and to save.

Grace is the wrath of God poured out upon the innocent Lamb of God Jesus Christ because he chose to take upon himself the sin of the whole world knowing that the wages of sin is death. It was on the cross that grace and love combined to destroy the power of sin in every surrendered life, hell and the devil himself is powerless to overcome anyone who has been Born Again through a personal relationship with Christ   

A simple touch of God’s grace will cause even the biggest rogue to be accepted in Christ, grace so rich that we have forgiveness of our sins and redemption through his blood. Grace so powerful that those who are in Christ are justified as though we had never sinned”¦ Ephesians 1:6-7, Romans 3:24

Listen; not only is God’s grace more than enough to bring forgiveness to all who believe regardless of how ungodly their lives have been. It brings his salvation, his peace, his health, his joy, his provision, his protection, his deliverance and his wholeness. 2nd Corinthians 12:9, Titus 2:11

I remember one evening talking to an elderly lady when the Lord revealed to me that she had been abused at 4 years of age by her father and an uncle. She spoke of how in her 70+ years she had never known a moment without pain. Often the Lord reveals such things to me but this time I asked for something that would not bring such horror back into her mind. He told me to ask her who killed Jesus; she replied; ‘the Romans’ to which I replied no, ‘the Jews’ she said and again the answer was no. She continued; ‘I suppose it was my sins that killed him for he died for my sin and in my place’ 

I answered her saying; ‘No it was not you, it was God who killed his own Son as Isaiah said in chapter 53:4; ‘we did esteem him (Christ) stricken smitten of God and afflicted’ ‘You see it was God who loved you so much that he killed his own Son so that you would not perish but have everlasting life’ 

She immediately stopped weeping and whispered; ‘Oh he does love me doesn’t he? Every pain left her body and she was free for the first time in her life. The revelation of God’s amazing grace and his love healed her of her past hurts the abuse she had suffered and all her pain. She was set free… joy flooded her soul as she was touched by God’s grace  

The very nature of God is revealed in the truth that Jesus healed all who came to him and all who were brought to him, revealed in the truth that it is not his will that any perish but that all have everlasting life’ John 3:16

He is waiting for whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord so that he can save their sin sick soul. 

He is waiting with patience for you and every man woman and child in the world regardless of class creed or colour to come as they are with nothing to offer him except for faith in Jesus once for all sacrifice for their sin; I wonder do you know this man Jesus?

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.  Revelation22:21

You’re Genesis

“You’re Genesis”

What if this week was your Genesis moment?

“In the beginning God”

Dare we begin another day without God? How deep the darkness, how void our lives would be, how aimless and without purpose our lives would be without his direction. ‘Lord, create in me a new heart and renew a right spirit within me’ Psalm 52:10. On the first day as you take your first borrowed breath give thanks as the Holy Spirit begins to awaken you to a new dawn… and listen carefully for God to speak. 

And God said: ‘Let there be light’

Thank God for his light, thank God he separated us from the law of sin and death and from self destruction. Thank God for his gift, the gift of his own Son who gave his life a ransom for us all. ‘Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning’ James 1:17 Lord; thank you for your light for it leaves no shadows where sin can hide in me, no place to run to, no area of my life which he cannot enable me to be an over comer by his power. 

And God said…‘Let there be a firmament, a sky, a heaven’

To daily awaken with his voice separating us unto himself, drawing us closer, inviting us into realms of glory, to live in the world still but not to be worldly, and so he separates us unto himself.  ‘But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.’ 1st Peter 2:9 Lord; what a privilege you have afforded us that we should be called the sons and daughters of God, to view the majesty of a sunrise, the beauty of an evening sky, and to stand admiring your stars which illuminate the night sky. 

And God said… ‘Let the waters be gathered together and let dry land appear’

Note for diary; I will not drown today… Listen; regardless of how dark things might be this morning know this God is still on the throne. 'when you walk through the waters He will be with you and through the rivers they shall not overflow you, Isaiah 43:2in Christ there is safety for he is the rock of your salvation, a shelter from every storm, a strong tower, a place of refuge. Listen no evil shall befall you nor any plagues come near your dwelling place. Thank you Lord for liberty to serve you without fear knowing that around about and underneath are your everlasting arms.

And God said…‘Let the earth bring forth’

News flash; Look up, open your eyes and see the abundance of God, see him so desirous to bring life that he sows it into the earth as soon as the waters were removed. Life here, life there, from the highest mountain top to the lowest valley, Life poured out from the giver of life… life with a capital L. No more fear of dark days and lonely nights. 'Christ in us the hope of glory' the comforter had come and visited our once void and dark lives and brought with him light and life. Lord; let every flower I see today, every tree shout loud enough to remind me; ‘I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me’ Galatians 2:20 

        And God said… ‘Let there be Lights in the heaven, the sun by day and the moon by night’

Another diary note; URGENT reminder to brain; it might look dark, things may look gloomy but take a plane journey, get above the clouds and see the truth, there is no darkness day or night! The sun literally shouts out at the top of its voice to those that sit in darkness; ’Fear not for Christ the true light has come into your world.' John 1: 9 The moon whispers to those whose strength is failing; 'he will never leave you nor forsake you, Hebrews 13:5They are a reminder that even when darkness is all around us his face still shines upon us. Lord; never allow me to take your creation for granted again for everything has your fingerprint, all things point to you and reveal the depth of your love for me. 

And God said…‘Let the waters the seas bring forth life in abundance’

Dear diary; emboss this note, write it indelibly on my faithless heart. 'The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want' Psalm 23:1 Remove far from me the notion that poverty honours God, remind me that he desires to create abundance in every area of my life even those that are hidden from view even as he did with the seas and the skies. Lord; let every bird remind me that I am to soar like an eagle by trusting in your strength and not my own, let the abundance of the seas remind me that 'the wealth of sinner is laid up for the just' Proverbs 13:22 and that ‘wealth and riches shall be in the house of the righteous’ Psalm 112:3

And God said…‘Let us make man’

Gods workmanship, his masterpiece, his finest work, but above all a mirror image of himself, his image, his likeness in human flesh destined to become the  'Light of the world' a city set on the hill that cannot be hidden. Matthew 5:14A people so special that he didn't just create us, he made us, fashioned us with his own hands out of the dust of the earth. Important? Yes, of great value? Oh yes indeed, his treasure hidden in earthen vessels. Special? Adam was blessed above all that God had created, so special that when it came to giving him life he breathed into Adam his own breath and life and he became a living soul. Lord; remind us daily as we look in the mirror that we are not some animal to live and die, that we are made in your image and likeness, living souls. A pearl beyond price to you.

‘God rested’ Hebrews 4:4

URGENT MEMO For immediate attention; its okay to rest on Sundays, seriously, it is all right to take a day off, have you not heard that the Sabbath was made for man not man for the Sabbath? Sometimes we feel guilty about not going to church and end up going because of duty, sound familiar?  

Think on this as you step into this awesome ' God day' there is a rest for the people of God' Hebrews 4:9

Christ is our Sabbath rest, seven days a week. As believers we are called to rest in the Lord 7 days a week whether it be in the work place or in fellowship for we are called to enter into your rest. Called to trust you with every minute of our lives, in every fearful moment, in good times and in bad troubled times.

Lord I invite you to be Lord of my whole life, to be the Genesis of every bright morning, the day star of every dark night. I invite you to be my shield and my fortress against every enemy real or imagined, to be my strength when I am weak, my joy in sorrow, my peace in turmoil, the health of my countenance and my God… Thank you for hearing me always and for answering me according to your promises and thus your will…

As I Look out into the World There’s Some Things I See I Want to Talk about, Can I Talk about It?

Luke 7:18-23  ‘And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Are  you he that should come? or  should we  look for another?  

When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto  you, saying, Are  you he that should come? or  should we look  for another?  

And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.  

Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.  

And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me’

John had spent weeks even months in a dark dungeon with little company except rats so it is easy to see how he could have begun to question himself and indeed the messiah he baptised in the river Jordan proclaiming Him as the Lamb of God

When we take our eyes of Christ fear and doubt eat away at childlike faith and rob us of the truth that set us free. Without his presence we see walls instead of open doors, we see problems instead of answers and hopelessness instead of hope

God can only keep us in perfect peace as we keep our minds firmly fixed on him

What do you see when you look at Christ? Do you see a crucified saviour or an empty cross, a vacated tomb and a risen saviour who has given you victory over death and hell?

Do you see your sin or do you see a Saviour?

Do you see the sin that so easily overcomes you or do you see Jesus who became sin with your sin so that you would be the righteousness of God in him? Have you not heard that he is faithful and just to forgive you all your sins and to cleanse you of every sin as you repent and turn from them?

Do you see sickness and disease destroying your body, robbing you of strength or do you see Jesus who took your infirmities and carried your sicknesses and by whose stripes you are already healed?

Do you see yourself struggling with debt, drowning in poverty, hear a bank managers abusive remarks or do you see Jesus who became poor with your poverty that you would become rich with his riches?

Do you see an empty purse or a cruse of oil that will never run out? 1st Kings 17:14-16

Do you see yourself living a pauper’s life or do you see the Lord who has promised to provide all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus? Philippians 4:19

Do you see the devil when temptation overtakes you or do you see your saviour Jesus who always makes a way of escape when you ask him so that you may be able to bear it?

Do you see fear and defeat robbing you when unbelief sets in or do you see Jesus who always causes you to triumph?  Have you not heard that God did not give you a spirit of fear but of love and power and of a sound mind?

Do you see no way out of captivity and misery or do you see Jesus who releases the captives and who is your joy and your strength?

Do you see your many afflictions, or do you see Jesus who delivers you out of them all?

Do you see death when you have lost someone you love or do you see Jesus the resurrection and the life

Do you dwell on the loss of a loved one or on the gain that Christ purchased for them for in Him ‘death has no sting and the grave no victory’ for from the moment we are absent from the body we are present with the Lord? In Christ they are risen indeed

Do you spend your days in sorrow or do you see that while weeping lasts for a night joy comes in the morning?

Do you look at the darkness which can so easily overtake you, or do you turn your eyes toward heaven and see his glorious light; his life, his hope, his peace which will cause you to laugh in the face of adversity.

In Christ there is endless joy, hope that springs eternal, health that springs forth speedily and victory that is yours always”¦

Open your eyes and fix them on the Crucified saviour now risen for your sake

Dark days vanish when Christ comes, all things change when Jesus comes to stay

‘The Cross a Moment in Time’

[waveplayer ids=”15007″]

The cross as you have never seen it before, inspired by God’s word and poduced by David Robinson

It may be empty since its last victim but it still whispers to every nation and in every tongue, ‘Come unto me’ pointing to ‘Christ the way the truth and the life for no man comes to the Father except through him’ John 14:6

There is no saviour here to adorn its boughs with glory, but there is an image of what a man would be without a Fathers love and a saviours sacrifice

The moment when death died and its last victim purchased eternal life for all who would put their truth in Christ’s blood bought salvation we can shout:

Thanks be to God, ‘I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me’ Galatians 2:20
