An Audiance with Grace

Its an experience meeting famous people. Having the opportunity to share the same room or space with a celebrity is different. If you have ever attended a concert, or got an autograph, or taken a picture with its inspiring. We know that they are normal people like us but to see them up close is surreal. When I worked in the Airline industry I would see celebrities all the time.

1. The Place-The throne room

High Priest- is there. King Jesus.

Come- It carries the the idea of approach with deep reverence.

Bold/Confidence- Freedom of speech.

Throne of Grace-

2. The Promise- You will receive Mercy

I never want us to think for a second that we don’t need mercy. Grace and Mercy are a dynamic duo that function as the operative components of the Love of God (John 3:16). But, here though, and most times mercy precedes grace in the order of operation. When you come into the throne room when you approach God you need mercy because every-time you enter into the his presence you are messy. In Christ all of our sins are forgiven yes, but there is a fellowship aspect that we must honor. We should not come to God in prayer, or worship, as if God is not almighty. You need mercy. (Preach)

3. The Power- Help when you need it.

We always need help. Always. Where mercy defaults us to a clean slate, Grace steps in a gives us something to work with. But, the author is not speaking in terms of just salvation. The Help they are referring to is situational help; seasonal help. Those times when you are in-fact incapable of carrying the burden that you are facing. When you can’t go any further you need help. When you can’t climb any further you need help. When you can’t, this is when grace can.

(preach)

I need Thee every hour

Most gracious Lord

No tender voice like Thine

Can peace afford

I need Thee, O I need Thee

Every hour I need Thee

O bless me now, my Savior

I come to Thee

I need Thee every hour

Stay Thou nearby

Temptations lose their power

When Thou art nigh

I need Thee, O I need Thee

Every hour I need Thee

O bless me now, my Savior

I come to Thee

I need Thee every hour

In joy or pain

Come quickly and abide

Or life is vain

I need Thee, O I need Thee

Every hour I need Thee

O bless me now, my Savior

I come to Thee

O bless me now, my Savior

I come to Thee
