GRACE UPON GRACE

JOB 33:12-17 BEHOLD,  IN THIS  THOU ART NOT JUST:   I WILL ANSWER THEE, THAT GOD IS GREATER THAN MAN. WHY DOST THOU STRIVE AGAINST HIM? FOR HE GIVETH NOT ACCOUNT OF ANY OF HIS MATTERS.   FOR  GOD SPEAKETH ONCE, YEA TWICE, YET MAN PERCEIVETH IT NOT.   IN  A DREAM,  IN  A VISION OF THE NIGHT,  WHEN DEEP SLEEP  FALLETH UPON MEN,  IN SLUMBERINGS  UPON THE BED;  THEN HE OPENETH  HIS EARS OF MEN,  AND  SEALETH  THEIR INSTRUCTION,  THAT HE MAY  WITHDRAW MAN  FROM HIS PURPOSE,  AND  HIDE PRIDE FROM MAN.   LOVE  

JEREMIAH 13:16-18 GIVE GLORY  TO  THE LORD YOUR GOD,  BEFORE  HE CAUSE DARKNESS,  AND  BEFORE  YOUR FEET STUMBLE  UPON  THE DARK MOUNTAINS,  AND,  WHILE YE  LOOK FOR LIGHT,  HE TURN IT UNTO  THE SHADOW OF DEATH,  AND  MAKE IT  GROSS DARKNESS.  BUT  IF YE WILL NOT  HEAR IT,  MY SOUL SHALL WEEP  IN SECRET PLACES  FOR  YOUR PRIDE;  AND  MINE EYE  SHALL WEEP SORE,  AND  RUN DOWN,  WITH  TEARS,  BECAUSE  THE LORD'S FLOCK  IS  CARRIED  AWAY CAPTIVE.  SAY UNTO  THE KING AND THE QUEEN,  HUMBLE YOURSELVES,  SIT DOWN:  FOR  YOUR PRINCIPALITIES  SHALL COME DOWN,  EVEN  THE CROWN OF YOUR GLORY.   LOVE

DANIEL 7:13-15 I SAW  IN THE NIGHT VISIONS,  AND  BEHOLD,  ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN, AND CAME TO THE ANCIENT OF DAYS,   AND THEY BROUGHT HIM NEAR BEFORE HIM. AND THERE WAS GIVEN HIM DOMINION, AND GLORY, AND A KINGDOM, THAT ALL PEOPLE, NATIONS, AND LANGUAGES, SHOULD SERVE HIM: HIS DOMINION IS AN EVERLASTING DOMINION, WHICH SHALL NOT PASS AWAY, AND HIS KINGDOM THAT WILL SHALL NOT BE DESTROYED. I DANIEL  WAS GRIEVED  IN MY SPIRIT  IN THE MIDST OF MY BODY,  AND  THE VISIONS OF MY  HEAD TROUBLED ME.   LOVE

PROVERBS 2:2-9 MY SON,  IF THOU WILT  RECEIVE MY WORDS,  AND  HIDE MY COMMANDMENTS  WITH THEE;  SO THAT  THOU  INCLINE THINE EAR UNTO WISDOM,  AND  APPLY THINE HEART  TO UNDERSTANDING;  YEA, IF THOU CRIEST  AFTER KNOWLEDGE,  AND  LIFTEST UP THY VOICE  FOR  UNDERSTANDING;  IF THOU SEEKEST  HER  AS SILVER,  AND  SEARCHEST FOR  HER  AS FOR HID TREASURE;  THEN SHALT THOU  UNDERSTAND  THE FEAR OF THE LORD,  AND  FIND  THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD.   FOR THE LORD  GIVETH WISDOM:  OUT OF HIS MOUTH  COMETH  KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.   HE LAYETH UP  SOUND WISDOM  FOR  THE RIGHTEOUS:  HE IS A BUCKLER  TO THEM  THAT WALK  UPRIGHTLY.   HE KEEPETH THE PATHS  OF  JUDGEMENT,  A...

HOSEA 6:1-3 COME, AND LET US RETURN UNTO THE LORD:   FOR HE HATH TORN, AND HE WILL HEAL US; HE HATH SMITTEN, AND HE WILL BIND US UP.   AFTER TWO DAYS WILL HE REVIVE US: IN THE THIRD DAY HE WILL RAISE US UP, AND WE SHALL  LIVE IN HIS SIGHT.   THEN SHALL WE KNOW, IF WE FOLLOW ON TO KNOW THE LORD;   HIS GOING FORTH IS PREPARED AS THE MORNING; AND HE SHALL COME UNTO US AS THE RAIN, AS THE LATTER AND FORMER RAIN UNTO THE EARTH. LOVE

PROVERBS 12:19-20 THE LIP OF TRUTH SHALL BE ESTABLISHED FOR EVER;   BUT A LYING TONGUE IS BUT FOR A MOMENT. DECEIT IS IN  THE HEART OF THEM  THAT  IMAGINE EVIL:   BUT TO THE COUNSELLORS OF PEACE IS JOY.   LOVE

JAMES 3:11-18 DOTH  A FOUNTAIN SEND FORTH  AT  THE SAME PLACE  SWEET WATER AND BITTER?  CAN THE FIG TREE,  MY BRETHREN,  BEAR OLIVE BERRIES?  EITHER A VINE,  FIGS?  SO CAN NO FOUNTAIN  BOTH  YIELD  SALT WATER AND FRESH.  WHO IS A WISE MAN AND ENDUED WITH KNOWLEDGE AMONG YOU?   LET HIM SHEW OUT OF A GOOD CONVERSATION HIS WORKS WITH MEEKNESS OF WISDOM.   BUT IF YE HAVE BITTER ENVYING AND STRIFE IN YOUR HEARTS, GLORY NOT, AND LIE NOT AGAINST THE TRUTH. THIS WISDOM  DESCENDETH NOT  FROM ABOVE, BUT IS EARTHLY, SENSUAL, DEVILISH. FOR WHERE ENVYING AND STRIFE IS, THERE IS CONFUSION AND EVERY EVIL WORK. BUT THE WISDOM THAT IS FROM ABOVE IS FIRST PURE, THEN PEACEABLE, GENTLE, AND EASY TO BE INTREATED, FULL OF MERCY AND GOOD FRUITS, WITHOUT PARTIALITY, WITHOUT HYPOCRISY. AND ...

JOHN 1:14-17 AND  THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH,  AND DWELT AMONG US,  (AND WE BEHELD HIS GLORY,  THE GLORY AS OF  THE ONLY  BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER,)  FULL OF GRACE AND TRUTH.  JOHN BARE WITNESS OF HIM,  AND CRIED, SAYING,  THIS WAS HE OF WHOM I SPAKE,  HE THAT COMETH AFTER ME IS PREFERRED BEFORE ME: FOR HE WAS BEFORE ME.   AND OF  HIS  FULNESS HAVE  ALL WE RECEIVED,  AND  GRACE FOR GRACE.  FOR THE LAW WAS GIVEN BY MOSES, BUT GRACE AND TRUTH CAME BY JESUS CHRIST.   LOVE

PSALM 119:164-165 SEVEN TIMES A DAY DO I PRAISE THEE   BECAUSE  OF  THY  RIGHTEOUS JUDGEMENTS.  GREAT PEACE HAVE THEY WHICH LOVE THY LAW: AND NOTHING SHALL OFFEND THEM.     LOVE

PROVERBS 29:1-3 HE, THAT BEING OFTEN REPROVED HARDENETH HIS NECK, SHALL SUDDENLY BE DESTROYED, AND THAT WITHOUT REMEDY. WHEN THE RIGHTEOUS ARE IN AUTHORITY, THE PEOPLE REJOICE: BUT WHEN THE WICKED BEARETH RULE, THE PEOPLE MOURN. WHOSO  LOVETH WISDOM  REJOICETH HIS FATHER:  BUT  HE THAT KEEPETH  COMPANY  WITH  HARLOTS  SPENDETH  HIS SUBSTANCE.   LOVE 

COLOSSIANS 4:2-6 CONTINUE IN PRAYER, AND WATCH IN THE SAME WITH  THANKSGIVING; WITHAL  PRAYING  ALSO FOR US,  THAT GOD WOULD OPEN UNTO US A DOOR OF UTTERANCE, TO SPEAK  THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST,  FOR WHICH  I AM ALSO IN BONDS: THAT I MAY MAKE IT MANIFEST, AS I OUGHT TO SPEAK.   WALK IN WISDOM TOWARD THEM THAT ARE WITHOUT, REDEEMING THE TIME. LET YOUR SPEECH BE ALWAYS WITH GRACE,  SEASONED WITH SALT, THAT YE MAY KNOW HOW YE OUGHT TO ANSWER EVERY MAN. LOVE 

PHILIPPIANS 3:10-17 THAT I MAY KNOW HIM, AND THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION,   AND THE FELLOWSHIP OF HIS SUFFERING, BEING MADE  CONFORMABLE  UNTO DEATH.   IF BY ANY MEANS  I MIGHT ATTAIN  UNTO  THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD.  NOT AS THOUGH  I HAD ALREADY ATTAINED,  EITHER WERE  ALREADY PERFECT:  BUT  I FOLLOW AFTER,  IF THAT I MAY  APPREHEND  THAT FOR WHICH ALSO  I AM  APPREHENDED  OF  CHRIST JESUS. BRETHREN, I COUNT NOT MYSELF TO HAVE APPREHENDED: BUT THIS ONE THING I DO FORGETTING THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE BEHIND, AND REACHING FORTH UNTO THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE BEFORE, I PRESS TOWARD THE MARK FOR THE PRIZE OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS. LET US THEREFORE, AS MANY AS BE PERFECT, BE THUS MINDED, GOD SHALL REVEAL EVEN THIS UNTO YOU. NEVERTHELESS, WHERETO WE HAVE ALREADY ATTAINED, ...

HEBREWS 5:1-10 FOR EVERY HIGH PRIEST TAKEN FROM AMONG MEN IS ORDAINED FOR MEN IN THINGS PERTAINING TO GOD, THAT HE MAY OFFER BOTH GIFTS AND SACRIFICES FOR SINS: WHO CAN HAVE COMPASSION ON THE IGNORANT, AND ON THEM THAT ARE OUT OF THE WAY; FOR THAT HE HIMSELF ALSO IS COMPASSED WITH INFIRMITY. AND BY REASON HEREOF HE OUGHT, AS FOR THE PEOPLE, SO ALSO FOR HIMSELF, TO OFFER FOR SINS. AND NO MAN TAKETH THIS HONOUR UNTO HIMSELF, BUT HE THAT IS CALLED OF GOD, AS WAS AARON. SO ALSO CHRIST GLORIFIED NOT HIMSELF TO BE MADE AN HIGH PRIEST; BUT HE THAT SAID UNTO HIM, THOU ART MY SON, TO DAY HAVE I BEGOTTEN THEE. AS HE  SAITH ALSO IN ANOTHER PLACE, THOU ART A PRIEST FOR EVER AFTER THE ORDER OF MELCHISEDEC. WHO IN THE DAYS OF HIS FLESH, WHEN HE HAD OFFERED UP PRAYERS AND SUPPLICATIONS WITH STRONG CRYING AND TEARS UNTO HIM THAT WAS ABLE TO SAVE HIM F...
