Graça
A graça de Deus é favor imerecido. Pela graça somos salvos, pela graça vivemos, pela graça somos sustentados. É o dom mais precioso de Deus — dado a quem não merece.
Salvos pela graça
Pela graça sois salvos, mediante a fé, e isto não vem de vós — é dom de Deus. Não por obras, para que ninguém se glorie.
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; itis the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.
so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Graça que capacita
A graça me basta, pois o poder se aperfeiçoa na fraqueza. Na graça, não estamos mais sob a lei, mas sob o favor de Deus.
For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.
From Slaves of Sin to Slaves of God
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!
who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began,
Trained by Saving Grace
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,
Living Before God Our Father
Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
A graça de Deus
O Senhor é compassivo e gracioso, tardio em irar-se e grande em amor. Sua graça é nova a cada manhã.
The Lordis merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever.
And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us,
And establish the work of our hands for us;
Yes, establish the work of our hands.
Waiting for the Redemption of the Lord
Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;
Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.
"The Lordbless you and keep you;
The Lordmake His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace." ’
God Will Be Gracious
Therefore the Lord will wait, that He may be gracious to you;
And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you.
For the Lordis a God of justice;
Blessed are all those who wait for Him.
Viver pela graça
A graça de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo esteja convosco. Perdoando e confessando, experimentamos a graça restauradora.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.
Hezekiah Keeps the Passover
And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, to keep the Passover to the Lord God of Israel. For the king and his leaders and all the assembly in Jerusalem had agreed to keep the Passover in the second month. For they could not keep it at the regular time, because a sufficient number of priests had not consecrated themselves, nor had the people gathered together at Jerusalem. And the matter pleased the king and all the assembly. So they resolved to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the Lord God of Israel at Jerusalem, since they had not done it for a long time in the prescribed manner.
Then the runners went throughout all Israel and Judah with the letters from the king and his leaders, and spoke according to the command of the king: "Children of Israel, return to the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel; then He will return to the remnant of you who have escaped from the hand of the kings of Assyria. And do not be like your fathers and your brethren, who trespassed against the Lord God of their fathers, so that He gave them up to desolation, as you see. Now do not be stiff-necked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves to the Lord; and enter His sanctuary, which He has sanctified forever, and serve the Lord your God, that the fierceness of His wrath may turn away from you. For if you return to the Lord, your brethren and your children willbetreated with compassion by those who lead them captive, so that they may come back to this land; for the Lord your God isgracious and merciful, and will not turn His face from you if you return to Him."
So the runners passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, as far as Zebulun; but they laughed at them and mocked them. Nevertheless some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem. Also the hand of God was on Judah to give them singleness of heart to obey the command of the king and the leaders, at the word of the Lord.
Now many people, a very great assembly, gathered at Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread in the second month. They arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and they took away all the incense altars and cast them into the Brook Kidron. Then they slaughtered the Passover lambs on the fourteenth day of the second month. The priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought the burnt offerings to the house of the Lord. They stood in their place according to their custom, according to the Law of Moses the man of God; the priests sprinkled the blood received from the hand of the Levites. For therewere many in the assembly who had not sanctified themselves; therefore the Levites had charge of the slaughter of the Passover lambs for everyone whowas not clean, to sanctify them to the Lord. For a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet they ate the Passover contrary to what was written. But Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, "May the good Lord provide atonement for everyone whoprepares his heart to seek God, the Lord God of his fathers, though heis not cleansed according to the purification of the sanctuary." And the Lord listened to Hezekiah and healed the people.
So the children of Israel who were present at Jerusalem kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests praised the Lord day by day, singing to the Lord, accompanied by loud instruments. And Hezekiah gave encouragement to all the Levites who taught the good knowledge of the Lord; and they ate throughout the feast seven days, offering peace offerings and making confession to the Lord God of their fathers.
Then the whole assembly agreed to keep thefeastanother seven days, and they kept it another seven days with gladness. For Hezekiah king of Judah gave to the assembly a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep, and the leaders gave to the assembly a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep; and a great number of priests sanctified themselves. The whole assembly of Judah rejoiced, also the priests and Levites, all the assembly that came from Israel, the sojourners who came from the land of Israel, and those who dwelt in Judah. So there was great joy in Jerusalem, for since the time of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel, therehad been nothing like this in Jerusalem. Then the priests, the Levites, arose and blessed the people, and their voice was heard; and their prayer came up to His holy dwelling place, to heaven.
