About this ebook

A woman thinks with her heart, and a man thinks with his logic. As the bride of Jesus, we are one with Him in the same way that a husband and wife are united and are become one. When a wife submits her love to her husband, the husband, in all logic, needs to consider her submission, placing it within his heart with all diligence as unto the Lord. Seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness (seeking Christ Jesus ) and all good things will be added unto them.

Author

Sharon Ferguson

Sharon is a born-again believer of the Lord Christ Jesus. She has been a born-again believer since the age of eight. Just over a year ago, she had a life-changing vision from the Lord concerning her oldest son, Chris. In this vision, she saw a large hand reaching down from heaven. In the palm of the hand of God, she saw Chris sitting as in the position of a child having his knees pulled up in his arms. The Lord spoke to her, saying, "Don't you see, I have your son right in the palm of My hand?" Up until this point, she had been going through a fearful, stress-filled time in her life concerning Chris. The loving grace of our Lord Jesus giving her this vision of her son has set her free from all fear, worry, and stress she had experienced. She is now experiencing His grace as never before in her life. (John 8:36) If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed!

    Dedication

    I dedicate this book; GRACE unVEILED to the memory of my mother Laura Belle Puckett. It was she who was the greatest influence to my life. She always encouraged me to put the Lord first in my life. My mother was my best friend.

    Introduction

    What this book is about is the unveiling of the Lord Christ JESUS in an amazing new revelation through the revelation of His GRACE that was first given to us by Paul. The gospel was hidden from me for most of my life until now. The Lord God opened my eyes to see and hear the gospel as never before. I was always taught through church that the gospel was the teaching of our being under the same law that was the Law of Moses, the 10 commandment law. Not knowing that the commandments that JESUS brought to us; are not the law of Moses, because He Himself fulfilled the law to its fullest when He cried out with a loud voice from the cross, (in English) IT is FINISHED, and in Strong’s Hebrew and Aramaic lexicon translation kelal, or kalal which means complete. My vision is to be a vessel of GRACE of which the LORD uses to open eyes to His GRACE and His never ending, never failing unmerited love for all people.

    The Lord has so opened my eyes to His revelation of GRACE and transformed my life, through the preaching of Pastor Joseph Prince; who is senior pastor of New Creation church in Singapore.

    Part 1

    From the Beginning To Consequences

    Chapter 1

    Created OF Creation

    Before Earth

    Genesis 1:1

    In, the beginning, God created The HEAVEN, and the earth.

    Have you ever read this scripture in the bible and if so, how many times have you read this scripture?

    Have you ever truly read it, in other words have you read it with your heart or just your eyes?

    Have you ever meditated on and studied it?

    Did you ever notice the area that says God created The HEAVEN?

    I had always thought as Heaven always being, it never once occurred to me that heaven was not always created. But, as I now read these scripture in a whole new light, from a new prospective of having my spiritual eyes opened and I now read it through the eyes grace, I can see that there was a time or period of which God created Heaven. And in this same time frame HE created and the earth. According to this, our God created His heaven and the earth, before He created the earth in the state of which we now know it. Then on the 6th day after He created the Earth, He created Adam; He breathed, His spirit of life into Adam. With this breath, Adam became a living soul, or you could say, Adam’s mind, and thoughts became alive. You may not have known, but Adam’s spirit was always alive, but without mans soul being alive, our spirits don’t have any way of communicating with other people, in this world. The real us which is our spirit being, we can speak, and with this speaking can communicate with God, but we, spirits beings, cannot communicate in the outer realm visible world that we live in, without the assistance of our soul.

    There is another realm world that God created which is heaven. This is the realm in which Abba God, our heavenly father and the angels live.

    Genesis 1:2

    2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit, of God, moved, upon the face of the waters.

    The earth was spoken in existence by God, but it was not in physical existence yet. This is the reason it was without form, and void, and the darkness that was upon the face of the deep was the darkness as of outer space, for light was not yet spoken into existence.

    2 …And the Spirit, of God, moved, upon the face of the waters.

    His spirit of WORD flowed out of Him as many rushing waters.

    His very spirit flowing, of His word are waters of creation. Darkness was upon the face of the deep. The heaven and the earth were spoken into existence and were very real. Even though, we, as fallen people, if we were standing beside of God during this time, could not see them. This is why darkness was upon the face of the deep. God’s waters, The WORD, spoken, were already manifest and standing firm in the place of which He had spoken it. HIS voice was the waters was of open space where HE spoke, speaking life to His paradise which is The Heaven. The waters were spirit of His Word, His very own Spirit.

    3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

    With this the voice of GOD, GOD brought forth HIS Son JESUS. You see, JESUS was always there and a part of the Heavenly father GOD. The way in which the Holy spirit spoke it to me, so that it can be understood with our limited human understanding goes something like this; When the father GOD spoke to bring forth light, HE reach inside of Himself and brought forth JESUS. And in doing this the LORD GOD placed HIS Son JESUS in the forefront of all things and then it was JESUS who spoke and from the WORD of JESUS came all things that was created.

    If you read the bible much you already know that it is JESUS Himself that tells us He is the Light of the world, well, now you know how and why He spoke this truth. JESUS is the light of the world in all ways there is to even imagine.

    God’s spirit flowed as great waters through the void atmosphere as He spoke light. While He spoke light, light came into being. This light was the very light of Him. Anytime God spoke, His word flowed as raging waters and manifested of whatsoever He had spoke.

    Later in Biblical scripture you will see where: when Jesus walked on the water. This water mentioned in this scripture, is the same water, God’s Spirit, His WORD. Also, during this same period of time, in the same scripture passages, you should be encouraged, of JESUS, when you see, that Peter also walked on the water. And Peters’ walking on the water was exactly the same as JESUS walking on the water. They were both walking on the WORD of God. When, the children of God, come to the place what we walk on the waters of God, you will realize that miracles are preformed and are brought into reality. Miracles have NO choice but to manifest. It would be as if I spoke the word stone, where there was no physical stone; but, you could literally walk on the word stone, which I had spoken; with your physical feet, before the stone was physically manifest. (Matthew 14:25 )

    Genesis 1:4-6

    And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light, (Heaven), from the darkness, (the outer space atmosphere).

    As I previously stated, JESUS was the light of GOD. The in the word of God, JESUS tells us Himself, I am the light of the world… (John 8:12) The next thing we see that God spoke was the lights that were to become the sun, the stars and our moon for this newly formed earth.

    God saw the manifestation of His water, His Spirit that He had spoken into existence. Then God divided His water into one designed area of space away from the darkness and then He called this light day and the area divided from His water of Spirit that remained of darkness, He called night.

    5 And God called, the light Day, and the darkness, He called Night. And the evening, and the morning, were the first day.

    The light God spoke or called, was the {spirit} waters, of day. And the atmosphere, left without light, was that, atmosphere areas of space scientist refer to as dark matter. This area which remained dark, and then God called this darkness, night.

    6 And God said, Let there be, a firmament, in the midst, of the waters, and let it, divide, the waters, from the waters.

    When God divided the waters from the waters, simply put it was, Him dividing the waters of the word heaven firmament, from the waters the of earth firmament. At this time this word was spoken and not yet seen in the way we see things. God spoke and the firmament in the shape of a sphere and it appeared in the midst of His waters and developed into a land formation. This meant that the firmament sphere divided the, waters spoken of word of God. And the spoken waters, from God, were made manifest, and divided the previous waters, God had already spoken. His waters, was divided to the north and also divided to the south of the atmosphere of His firmament creation. Remember these waters, here, ARE the release of Gods spirit through His spoken word that manifest His creations. When God speaks or breathes, particles of His very being explode and manifest His glory light to whatever it comes in contact with, as, however, He desires, for it to manifest. Gods spoken WORD is more powerful than any atomic bomb that this world, with all its genius combined.

    Genesis 1:7-9

    And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

    8 And God called the firmament, Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

    Have you ever thought about the reason God said evening first and then He said, morning were the second day?

    In the evening was the concluding period of the, the darkness. The period of which Gods word spoken existed in the manifesting and in the morning was the beginning of the physical manifestation to the physical realm appeared. In Gods heaven realm, the truth realm, reality world, Gods word, was spoken and the conclusion is already a reality.

    9 And God said, Let the waters, (spirit word), under the heaven, be gathered together, unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

    When God spoke or speaks anything it is definite and leaves no room for error. In other words, it is real and true long before the human eye can see it. This is more real than anything in this world that we see with our natural human physical eyes. With our human reasoning, we are always under the impression that everything we are able to see, hear, touch and taste must, without a doubt, be the reality of our lives. But it the techno or (spirit) realm that God created, that is the real true reality of all life. In our physical world we are moving slower than that of the techno realm. Think of it like this, Angels are always all around us, but, we can NOT see them, or even hear them. All of this is because they move at a much faster rate than any human can possible comprehend. They can appear within our physical ability to see them at the command of the Lord and when He deems as necessary. Scripture tells us that we can entertain Angels unaware. The angels can come in this world, in the form of man.

    Genesis 1:9-10

    And God said, Let the waters, (His spoken word spirit), gather under heaven, unto one place, and let the dry land appear:

    Everything God ever created was spoken into existence of God’s spirit. God in His Deity, His Wisdom, Saw all that He had created and He saw that it was all good, finished and complete even before things appeared as we could see it with our limited physical sight. He saw this world and everything that would ever be, finished, complete and lacking nothing. If you look at this scripture from a standpoint of just reading it in our natural way of reading the words you might miss something. The thing you would be missing is this; Let the waters, under the heaven, be gathered together, unto one place, and let the dry land appear: If you read this portion of scripture and study it, it may sound like a contradiction of terms.

    How do the waters, under heaven, gather together to produce dry land if it were merely water as we know it?

    This is proof positive, of what I have been saying earlier. The waters are the spirit of God spoken as words.

    10 And God called, the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, called He Seas: and God SAW that it was good.

    Did you realize that all these things spoken in this scripture, God SAW that it was good, even before it came into being, as we, in our flesh see it?

    Genesis 1:11

    And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

    (One small thing I want to point out here is the name God here in this 1 chapter of Genesis is the same word in the Hebrew which is Elohim meaning God the creator.)

    I really want to place high emphasis on one thing I want you to see here, and it is the fact that Everything God created, God said, and put into motion the waters of His voice, before any of these things physically appeared in to the realm, of which fallen human eyes could see. Keeping this in mind KNOW that God did already SEE them. He could SEE them because of His realm in which He lives. Think on it like this; we who are believers, Christians, know without a doubt, that there are angels all around us, all the time. But, with our natural or physical eyes we do not see them. And just because we don’t see them does not mean they are NOT made manifest. This is true because they live in the spiritual realm world that God lives in.

    Genesis 1:12

    And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

    Every time our Lord God speaks, an amazing thing happens. He sees that thing of which He has spoken, long before it physically manifest.

    Genesis 1:13

    And the evening and the morning were the third day.

    Genesis 2:4-5

    These, are, the generations, of the heavens, and of the earth, WHEN, they were, created, in the DAY, that, the Lord God, made the earth, and the heavens,

    5 And every plant, of the field, BEFORE, it was, in the earth, and every herb, of the field, BEFORE, it grew: for, the Lord God had NOT, caused, it to rain, upon the earth, and there, was not, a man, to till the ground.

    What an interesting statement in verse 5. There, was not, a man, to till the ground. In the beginning of man, on the earth, when the Lord God created man, in this world, He never created man to till the ground. God created man and put him in the Eden garden. God’s word tells us that God created every tree that was good for food and they could eat of every tree except the tree of knowledge of good and evil. These trees included the tree of life in the midst of the garden. This Garden of Eden was paradise here on this earth. It was a heaven that reflected what the Lord God had already created in His heaven.

    Some of you might want to ask God, why did you create the tree of knowledge of good and evil if it was to bring death to man? Along with this question we might also ask, didn’t God the father already know man would lose their glory halo if they ate of this tree of knowledge of good and evil and this would cause them to be fallen from GRACE? Well, the answer lies with the fact that The Lord gave all of us free will. Our Father God always had the ability to stop Adams hand when he was about to eat of the tree of knowledge, but He did not.

    If the Lord had stopped Adam from eating of this wrong tree than Adam would not have had free will would he?

    This same free will is the reason He did NOT use His divine power to stop Adam and Eve from eating of the wrong tree. It is like this; if HE had used his divine power to stop man from eating of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, than it would have negated or put a stop to His divine plan of which He first created us, of us having free will to chose to Love Him and accept Him without any interference or force. The LORD God did NOT want robots; He wanted children to Love and care for and who would love Him as well. When you love anyone you must love them enough to let them go, to allow them to make their own choices, even if the end results are not what you had hoped they would be and it causes you heartache. It is the same reason that we raise our children as best as we can and hopefully do it with The Lord in the center, that one day they grow up and then they make their own good choices in this life. And their choices as well as your choices, will lead to a good reward or a consequence of that choice. In this our making choices for our lives, brings me to the scripture that most of us have either read or heard being taught at some point in our lives. IT is the scripture of the wide or broad way or the narrow way of life. Many times I have heard this scripture misquoted, as so it would read broad is the path and narrow is the path that leads to …

    What we need to keep in mind is that the meaning of path and the meaning of way can be totally different. Another thing we must always keep in mind is that words used in one particular language may have one meaning and the very same word used in another language or country may have a different meaning all together.

    Matthew 7:13-14

    13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

    14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

    Take just a moment and ask yourself; what is a way that is described here in this portion of scripture? The description of a way in this particular scripture is not a description of the direction but it is an action or type of lifestyle.

    Do you realize that one definition of strait is righteous? I didn’t until the Lord prompted me to search it out.

    So, with this the narrow way, we need to see and come to have an understanding that it is the way of peace, and rest in the GRACE of JESUS without a life of worry and stress in this life. Living and trusting Him to provide all things. NOT looking at all the storms all around you and being able to walk on the water. However, this also gives us the explanation of the way being broad that leads to destruction. This path that leads to destruction is a life filled with self- righteousness. It
