  1. TRANSITION

BB –  We are talking today about “The Throne Of Grace”

So JT What does that title bring up to your mind? ((JT ANSWERS))

 

  1. Bob – POINT: This is a favorite subject so I love talking about it. We are not only welcomed to come to God’s throne but because of the Lord Jesus Christ we have received the extension of God’s golden scepter (I’ll explain that) but also we have Him as our high priest)

 

Hebrews 4:15–16 (ESV) — 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

JT – Question ONE - FROM THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF LIFE….

 

What is the number one takeaway you want listeners and readers to take from your article, The Throne Of Grace?

 

  1. Bob

That God has extended the golden scepter which allows us to come with confidence to His Throne. That God in His grace has provide a great high priest to help us as we come to God and He is one who is touched with the feeling of our helplessness. Not only that but we have the help of the Holy Spirit who draws us to God’s throne and helps us as we pray. That is the Trinity involved as we pray. It doesn’t get any better than that.

DISCUSSION

  1. JT – Question Two… “FROM THE MENTAL ASPECT”

How can we mentally bring ourselves to appropriate the throne of grace?

  1. Bob

Ask God to help you see the impossibility of going through life without Him. Neglect of prayer is a neglect of tapping into the God for every situation. It’s a matter of dependency upon Him. The more dependent we are the better off life becomes because we  realize as Psalm 46 says,  He is a very present help.

Discussion

  1. Third question … Turning to the Physical

What is the best way to recover from athletic training and events?

 

  1. Bob ---

Go back to the basics…

  1. Rest
  2. Nutrition
  3. Sleep
  4. Intentional movement (active rest)
  5. Stretching
  6. Pacing (knowing when to return and how --- learned)

 

JT’s Comments

 

Bob’s final comment – It takes discipline to plan your recovery and discipline to work your plan but recovery is so much better than neglecting it.

 

Point: DISCIPLINE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE --- in all aspects of life
