Open your Window to God’s Grace, by Karen Rowe August 31, 2015

Good day to you dear readers!

As I prayed what to share with you today, the Lord answered me and said,

“You don’t know the weather against their glass, but I do.”  “You don’t know the measure of their window that they have opened to my grace, but I do.”  You don’t know the broken glass that they are looking through, but I do.”

“Write to them a message from me, to open their Bibles to learn how to open their window to my Father’s Grace.”

“Teach them to pray in my Holy Spirit, so I can help them open their window to believe in the power of forgiveness; and how to live in the Father’s love for them, by His grace.”

Have you opened your window to let God’s grace flow in?  God’s grace flows in front of you –have you believed in John 3:16-17 as your Salvation, authorization, and ability to tap into God’s River of life and life in abundance, by His Grace?  You can believe, because God has given you a measure of faith to believe!  Will you open your window wide open to God’s Grace?

I believe the Spirit is nudging me to encourage you like this:

What is glass made of?  What is glass made of that we can see so clearly through, but when broken or shattered, the view becomes distorted?  The crack in the glass can become more of the focus than the clarity through the window.  And, no matter how good the view is through the window, it is never the same as an open window experience!  Isn’t it like that in our life –if we allow our focus to be more on our failures or the brokenness in our life.  Jesus’ bones were broken for ours –He makes us whole; and invites us to open our window to God’s Grace and just live with Him and experience our relationship with Him!

Wow!  To experience God’s living Holy Spirit flow through our life is a miracle from Heaven above!  The place we long to live eternally with those we love and miss!  We can experience Heaven in the spirit now –even before our body dies to get us there forevermore!  Jesus gives us rest and restoration …Jesus is the Truth, the Way and the Life …

I hope to encourage you to look in the mirror with fresh eyes to see God’s love for you!

The Lord had me in many Scriptures flowing through my open window today, but the one the Spirit is guiding me to share with you is this:

Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.

Malachi 3:10 (ESV);  see also Luke 12:13-21

Dear Friends in Christ, we have a portion to share!  Whether possessions, knowledge, time or care –We need to know and understand the love that God has for us to abide in Jesus; first for our soul, but also in our purpose that is set and bonded in Christ to do His work on earth as it is in Heaven.

What feels and looks little to us (faith even the size of a mustard seed) –God can and will grow our portion to magnitudes beyond our imagination!  Think of the 2 fishes and 5 loaves of bread!   If we will each (united together) believe and do not doubt in our heart (which is our spirit) our ability in Jesus Name to share our portion, God will reveal His Son’s worth to this world.  In Christ, we can  do the work of HIS Church!   If you, or me, doubt our ability in Christ, then isn’t that self-righteous?  Yet, if you believe in your worth in Christ to God, the righteousness in you is from God; and God will magnify your work to make it grow for the good of the Kingdom of God.

God loves you!  You are immensely and incredibly  valuable to God!  The enemy, who is Satan is a liar -Anything that does not agree with the Word of God is a lie.  Anything that is contrary to the Word of God is a Mountain that we are authorized in Christ to remove and overcome.  We need to be focused as a Church on the Truth, which is Jesus.  I believe God has a message for you and for me in the Bible every day!  Will you open your window to God’s Grace?  Jesus did more for us than simply tell us the truth!  Jesus revealed to us the true character and will of God!  Jesus is the Truth, the Way and the Life!

Love Comes from God
1John 4:15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. 17By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.…

‘Blessed to be a blessing’, because God has SO loved the world!  And, because Jesus has given us his compassion!  I hope the Lord shines His light through me that you can see Him; and know God has SO loved you.  And even more, I pray this encourages you to tell your story of  Jesus in your life to impact the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ, because the world is in need of hope and hope is only found by believing in God’s love to open by faith the window to God’s Grace.

Memory Verse:  Ephesians 2:8  “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.”

“He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he (Deuteronomy 32:4).”

I hope this is a blessing to you to know you are invited!  Greet a family member today –you will know they are in Christ through their eyes and their smile!  Watch them light up when you notice they are your brother or sister in Christ!  You can also notice someone who is seeking to know they have hope …  The Holy Spirit is your help and shield.  …and take… the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, Click link to learn more about The Whole Armor of God.

Meet Karen: Hi, I am blessed, by God's good grace and because I know Jesus, I am blessed. I choose to be blessed, because I have a choice set before me and I refuse to look down. I trust God and I know and believe in the love God has for us. I have overcome difficulties; and I am blessed by the grace of God alone. If I have written about it, then I have felt the pain of it in some way, and to some degree. Did you know that Jesus has felt your pain? This is why I write. By God's grace I can identify; and tell you honestly, yes there is hope in anything and everything that you are facing today! Jesus is our Hope! He is the Truth, the Way and the Life. I am married a wonderful man, Robert Rowe; I love my husband and he loves me; and we have been married for 28 years. Together, we have been blessed with a wonderful daughter, named Amanda who is college now; and a wonderful son, named Daniel who is growing up well and soon to graduate elementary school. We work together and by God's grace we run our own business called PSI. We have a pastor over our ministry and over our business and also we depend on him for advise in our family. We have 2 dogs, 4 horses, 2 cats and love to spend time outdoors by the water and by campfires ... that is it seems when we can find time away from life's busy schedule. I love to write because it helps me learn more about God. And, I am driven by a passion from a love that God has put in my heart to share from my experiences and struggles, as I gain understanding in God’s Word to know how effective and powerful God is over our every situation! I share with you so you can know that you are not alone in your struggles. The same God who helps me and my family, is your help and shield as well! Life is not always easy, but it is possible –I like to share the difference that following Jesus makes in my life. And, I love to share God's patience and mercy and love that is with me! I am not perfect, but am experiencing God sanctify me through and through with every mistake I make; and yes, overcome in Christ! Life is not just about the successes; life on this earth is also about the troubles we overcome to discover what God has hidden in our faith to find! Troubles are more a challenge to grow in our faith ... It is not easy, but in the end the grace of God we discover is worth experiencing God in the midst. By Grace, I have discovered Jesus is Peace and He is my Joy and Wisdom from Heaven. God is our Provider and Healer and Creator, who is our help and shield over all things. By grace, I have experienced a nearness to God through my faith in His Son! We are well forgiven by God; and well blessed when we know and believe the love that God has for us. To say, "all is well with my soul" is a powerful knowledge to understand and experience. I sense God's desire for you to know His love for you and how deep His love for you is that He has SO loved you; God gave you His Son. God loves you right now just as you are! There is so much to learn! I believe that as we learn from God, we are God’s gift to each other. It is all God’s story –and for His glory; and God has SO loved us. I love to paint the vision that God has given me about a Father’s love –that God wants you to dream again and visualize His love for you! In God’s eyes, there’s more to life than we see; and in a world that sometimes misrepresents and misunderstands God and love; God wants you to have the courage to dream His dream and see His vision of a Father’s love for you! Many years ago, I prayed to God, “How can I tell a million people what I know about Your Son?” God showed me I had a gift of a ministry about God's Love; and He called it Hope in Today! I write to please God and I write to encourage you; and I write to spend quiet time with God. All because of this love that God has first shown me! I need Jesus –and my life is about my relationship with God. And, every blessing begins with Him! Love in Christ, Karen Rowe, Director Hope in Today Ministries, Inc.
