As we continue in the explanation in revealing the actions of given grace and the response to the grace given. So far we discovered, when God’s Word said that Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD; this grace means: kindness, favor, move to favor by petition, merciful. Once again, Noah’s behavior and his principles were different than the people in where he dwelt; and that placed Noah on God’s radar. In Lot finding grace in the eyes of the LORD, while he was obeying the directions of the LORD; the wrath of God seemed as it would overtake Lot, that while he was running for his life, he made a favorable petition ‘which is one of the meanings of the word grace’, as can be read in the 19th verse of the 19th chapter of the scroll of Genesis from the King James Version first: behold now, Thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and Thou hast magnified thy mercy ‘which is to enlarge in various senses and at various times’, which Thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life ‘yes, grace is constantly saving a person’s life; even from judgment from God’ this is why Lot brings up the topic; and I cannot escape to the mountain ‘which is to tap into that given grace once more’ Lot said, lest some evil take me, and I die ‘and the LORD’S given saving grace be in vain; Selah! That same 19th verse of the 19th chapter of the scroll of Genesis from the Amplified Version, uses these words: behold now LORD, Your servant has found favor in Your sight and You have magnified Your kindness and mercy ‘which is to enlarge in various senses and at various times’ which was shown unto Lot in saving my life ‘which is one of the actions of given grace’; but, Noah says; I cannot escape to the ‘appointed destiny’ which is the mountains ‘in me really trying’ lest the evil ‘which was shown unto the plains of Sodom and Gomorrah’ overtake me and I die ‘and your saving grace be in vain: please take notice that Lot was praying only concerning himself and not his two remaining daughters; we of the Leadership Team of Grace Message Church Ministries reiterate; Lot’s two virgin daughters, they were in the wave of the father’s grace and not their personal God given grace. This is why they were selfishly able to make their father drunk and having sexual intercourse with him. When someone else benefits from your God given privileges, no appreciation is shown. This was the case with Lot’s herdmen, towards Abram’s herdmen, at a time in which they are in the presence of the enemies ‘being the Perizzite and Canaanites’ in the Promised Land ‘which is Canaan: as can be seen in the 7th verse of the 13th chapter of the scroll of Genesis. By riding the coattail of someone else’s God given grace, it’s easy to look back and become a pillar of salt, as did Lot’s wife. We of the leadership team already know that some of you have a problem with what’s being said; but, the Word of God clearly said, Noah and Lot were the ones of their family in which found grace in the eyesight of the LORD and only them when speaking about them and their families. The God given grace which is bestowed upon a person of God’s choosing, because of what God sees in that person; it radiates the same affect from the person unto his enemies, as is seen in the 5th verse of the 32nd chapter of the scroll of Genesis in these words: I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants, and womenservants: and I have sent to tell my lord ‘Esau’, that I may find grace in thy sight. Get this revelation: Jacob’s now practice of grace, it was foreign to Esau; seeing that Esau asked in the 8th verse of the 33rd chapter of the scroll of Genesis: What meanest thou ‘Jacob’ by all this drove which I met? In other words, Jacob’s now practiced grace was hitting Esau like the waves of the sea, as he approached Israel. For the full affect of God’s grave had now hit Jacob, which brought out Israel; but it was done in intervals of the 69 years of Jacob’s life; this is what grace is doing in our lives, causing all things to work for the good of us who are the called according to God’s purpose. Jacob’s understanding in grace was, it’s a present or presents (as in many gifts) which comes from both participants; just as is a covenant; it takes two; Selah!!!! If grace is not participated by both parties, deception is in the mix; as is seen in verses 11-13 of the 34th chapter of the scroll of Genesis in these words: Shechem said unto Dinah’s father ‘Jacob’ and unto her brethren ‘Simeon and Levi---yes, Simeon who was equipped to hear God and Levi, who was attached to God for ministry’ Shechem asked them, let me FIND GRACE IN YOUR EYES, and what ye shall say unto me I will give. Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife. And THE SONS OF JACOB answered Shechem and Hamor his father DECEITFULLY, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister. Not able to forgive everyone that was indebted to them ‘which is an act of grace, which is undeserved forgiveness’; so there was no deliverance from the evil which was imbedded in Simeon and Levi’s hearts; while their father extended grace; he being deceived by his own two church going sons also. As is pointed out in the 30th verse of the 34th chapter of the scroll of Genesis in these words: And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. Nevertheless, Jacob’s God given grace kept them from their enemies. Here is where we will be picking up from in our next epistle, for enough has been said to make you go, wow, it is more to grace than they let on to be! We will speak with you at a later date, that’s if it’s the LORD’S will, until then, sayonara!!!!!
