The Emergence

THE LORD IS A SUN & SHIELD

Psalm 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. reading the Old Testament with the New Testament with the lenses of grace makes all the difference in how you see God.
Grace is Christ and Christ is the brightness of God’s glory. So the Lord has given grace and glory, as a result of that if he could give us his most precious there is nothing else he will withhold from us. Roman’s 8:32 TPT “For God has proved his love by giving us his greatest treasure, the gift of his Son. And since God freely offered him up as the sacrifice for us all, he certainly won’t withhold from us anything else he has to give.” Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭32‬ ‭TPT‬‬. See the Message version If God didn’t hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn’t gladly and freely do for us? Romans 8:32
The last part of that scripture in Psalms 84:11 now says God will only do these things for the blameless ones, here is why you must be educated in the righteousness of Christ because none of us is without blame in the flesh. If you are; raise your hands so we can show you your faults now.
So it is in Christ that we become blameless because his perfect righteousness was given to us and God is no longer imputing sin to those of us who are in Christ. “Death once held us in its grip, and by the blunder of one man, death reigned as king over humanity. But now, how much more are we held in the grip of grace and continue reigning as kings in life, enjoying our regal freedom through the gift of perfect righteousness in the one and only Jesus, the Messiah!”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬ ‭TPT‬‬
2 Cor 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
It is this knowledge that gives us the audacity to ask the Father of grace and glory for what we need so that our joy may be full.
