Weekly Truth

Open Your Bible

Ephesians 2:8-9

Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the good news of Jesus with us wherever we go. 

We have been memorizing our key passage for the book of Ephesians. Now, we’ll put both parts of the passage together.

For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift—not from works, so that no one can boast.
—Ephesians 2:8–9

    I got so many compliments on my hair today at church—go figure. Did ya’ll pray it would look better? hahah! My back was really screaming today as I tried to stand behind our group sign ups. It is really frustrating…like it always hurts, but it really, really hurts. Then I end up laying down the rest of the day, which is no fun. I did receive hands laid on me, healing prayers, 2 today and 1 yesterday. I KNOW God hears and heals. Praying in accordance for healing. Praying for all your requests as well.

      I’m so glad you got nice compliments about your haircut, sweet lady. Sorry about the pain you’re having but glad you’re able to get some rest.

    Thank you again for praying for me, ladies yesterday ❤️ hope you have a blessed Sunday and stay in the love of the Lord this coming week. ❤️ writing from my church’s kitchen (where I currently serve) as I wait for second service to close. :)

    1. Rhonda J. says:

      That’s a fun place to serve! Sounds like morning as far as serving and waiting for the flow before and after! We had group sign ups, and baptisms after both services to tend to! It was busy…and I didn’t even get to worship and hear the service. :/ Hope work situation was ok yesterday?

    It’s all OUR Jesus!! None of it came or will ever come from us. We couldn’t do it, but OUR Jesus did! Once-and-for-all! Best part? Its FREE! All we have to do is accept it!! Happy Sunday Sweet She’s! Feeling refreshed as I “allowed” myself to sleep in and slept almost 8.5 hours! Wish I could do that every day or at least 8 hours daily.

    1. Rhonda J. says:

      Whoa..getting crazy there! I love my sleep, always have loved to sleep 8-9 hours a night! Love you!

    Dear Shes,
    Oh the simplicity of it all.
    Saved.
    By Grace.
    Through Faith.
    His Gift.
    Not works.
    If we boast at all, it is that, in Him.
    As for the early church then, as for us now.

    1. Rhonda J. says:

      Amen!

    I just thought I would read back through the goal in the intro to this study (quoted below). We have certainly been given the facts and the tools that we need to make this happen. Praying that heart changes that we encountered in this study will be solidified as we continue to lean into Him for all we’re worth. Double meaning there! So very thankful for our Father and the GIFT of salvation through GRACE by faith in Christ alone.

      Yeah, that’s good! I picked a study called Chosen: A Study of Ephesians for our next group at church starting in October. I really wanted to read straight through a book of the Bible and I love this one! I liked that it was here first to glean through the comments. We only had a few days of controversy…lol, hopefully I can work through those okay in my group!

      1. Rhonda J. says:

        Also question- What is the name of the Christian book about the civil war you were referring to?

      2. Cee Gee says:

        Sounds great; remind us then so we can pray for the group. Praying for you as you prepare! I just sent you the book info on FB messenger.

    Thank you Father!

  9. Cheryl Blow says:

    So grateful and thankful for God’s grace! Unmerited favor, receiving what I do not deserve and not receiving what I do deserve! As Tina, where would I be without Jesus? And just think, all of this is a gift from God not works! I would never be able to repay my debt! The goodness of God! This fills my heart with joy and love today!

    As I go to teach my 2 & 3 year olds today, may I be able to convey to them how much Gideon loves them!

    Praying for all! Be blessed today!
