Prayer is the great link of faith between the soul of the saint and the promise of God's future grace.
Send us Fan MailJohn Newton once said, “God sometimes does His work with gentle drizzle, not storms.” The "Amazing Grace" that Newton wrote about in his famous hymn didn't hit him like a storm. John Newton's transformation was a drizzle. Throughout his 82-year life, John Newton went from a biblically-schooled child, to a rambunctious and incorrigible teenager, to a depraved sailor; to an outcast; to a slave-trading sea captain, to a surveyor, before becoming the beloved pastor and prolific hymn writer we all know him as. Join us as we delve into the many dangers, toils and snares that John Newton found himself in, and how the grace of God led him safely through them all. Thanks for tuning in!

If we are honest, I think we struggle sometimes to believe that we will ever overcome our core besetting sins or be released from our addictions. This is for, at least, two reasons. Perhaps we do not see and behold God clearly for Who He is and what union with Him affords us. And, we do not understand with clarity the Divine Grace of God that saves all who are in Christ Jesus. Today, we set our thoughts on the Divine Grace of God; for it is the very power of God that He shares with us so that we may be delivered, healed, and raised up to a new life.
God promises not merely that we will find grace “to help in time of need,” but that the grace is well-timed by God.
Teaching from 1 Timothy 1:12–20, Chrissy Cole examines how the gospel personally transformed Paul and how it should continue transforming us. When God's grace grips us, His mercy humbles us, and His goodness moves us to worship, we can stop living from guilt and self-effort and begin serving, growing, and sharing our testimony from the overflow of His grace.

Moment by moment, God supplies the strength in which we serve. He does this because the ongoing, inexhaustible supplier of power gets the glory.
Whatever added signs and wonders God may show to amplify our witness to Christ, they will come through his grace and power.
Believe in the promise that in this day God will be at work in you to will and work for his good pleasure.
Paul prayed for grace for the day, trusted that it would come with power, and then acted with all his might.
Last Sunday, Aaron Ninaber shared a message on the undeserved grace of God through the story of Saul's transformation in Acts 9. He reminded us that God's grace pursues, restores, and redeems every life, no matter the past. We were challenged to receive His grace freely and extend that same grace to others, trusting that no one is beyond the reach of Jesus.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningHebrews 4:16 — Come Boldly to the Throne of Grace Live from our studios in London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Melbourne • Wellington • Singapore • Houston • Lima GRACE • MERCY • CONFIDENCE Welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper. Come in for five minutes, let's open God's Word together, and let's pray. There are times when we become deeply aware of our own limitations. We may not have the strength we thought we would have, the answers we hoped to find or the confidence we wish we could hold. Yet the invitation of God is not to stay at a distance until we feel stronger. Through Jesus Christ, we are welcomed to come just as we are, bringing every weakness, every question and every need before His throne of grace. Hebrews 4:16 (NIV) “Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” What an extraordinary promise for today. God's throne is not a place of rejection for those who seek Him; it is a place of mercy, compassion and timely help. We are not received because we have earned His favour but because Christ has opened the way for us. So today, let's gently remind ourselves that fear will not win, because Jesus Christ welcomes us into the Father's presence, where mercy is abundant and grace is always enough. Father, thank You that Your door is always open and Your welcome is always filled with love. Thank You that You never turn away those who seek You with sincere hearts and that Your grace meets us exactly where we are. Lord Jesus, bless every listener today. Bring healing to those who are unwell, mercy to those burdened by regret, hope to those who feel discouraged and renewed strength to everyone who is quietly asking for Your help. Teach us to come before You with confidence, trusting Your faithful love. Holy Spirit, draw our hearts closer to the Father, deepen our confidence in Christ and help us live each day strengthened by the grace we have received. Across the world, from Melbourne to Wellington, from Singapore to Houston and Lima, may every listener discover the joy of knowing they are always welcomed into the presence of God.

June 14, 2026 - Sunday AM Sermon This episode is a sermon-style exploration of the book of Jonah that reflects on God's grace in both the lives of the lost and those already in covenant with God. Neal addresses personal struggles with obedience and compassion, references a community camp and volunteers, and prays for the safety and spiritual growth of attendees. Topics covered include: the narrative arc of Jonah (flight, storm, fish, Nineveh, and aftermath); five key truths about God's grace—how grace pursues us when we run, punishes us when we sin, pardons us when we repent, empowers us when we return, and remains patient when we relapse; and practical scripture connections from Jonah, Luke, Romans, Titus, 1 Timothy, Hebrews, Galatians, and 1 John. Illustrations include the sailors, the prodigal, the story of Peter, and a cultural reference to the film Catch Me If You Can to highlight pursuit and mercy. Key points listeners can expect: an honest look at Jonah as a flawed, sometimes unsympathetic protagonist who nonetheless receives and proclaims God's grace; the balance between the consequences of sin and the persistence of divine mercy; the ongoing need for grace after baptism; and encouragement that God still uses repentant people despite past failures. The sermon emphasizes both God's justice and long-suffering compassion, and challenges listeners to respond in repentance, service, and prayer. The episode concludes with a pastoral invitation—an opportunity to respond to God's call, to seek restoration publicly or privately, and to join in a closing hymn. Scripture references woven throughout the message provide a guide for further study and reflection. Duration 28:26
Even if we know that God is good to us, we may believe that his goodness is constrained. But Jesus is at pains to help us not feel that way.

In Week 11 of our Welcomed. series, we explore the powerful truth that the gospel doesn't merely change what we believe—it transforms how we see and love people.In Acts 16:16–40, we encounter a remarkable collection of unlikely people brought together by the grace of God: a wealthy businesswoman, a formerly demon-oppressed slave girl, and a Roman jailer. Though their backgrounds, experiences, and social standing could not have been more different, each is welcomed into the family of God through the same gospel.As Paul and Silas endure opposition, injustice, and imprisonment, we see the contrast between a culture of welcome rooted in self-interest and the welcome of Jesus that begins with God. The gospel expands our vision of who God loves, reshapes our identity, and empowers us to love others with courage, humility, and grace—even in the midst of suffering.Join us as we discover how the welcome of Jesus transforms both our hearts and our relationships, creating a new kind of community centered on God's grace rather than our preferences.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.orgConnect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!Instagram: @integrity_churchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/liveintegrity/
Pastor Klika – June 28, 2026 – 35:339
The end of Peter's first letter to the exiled congregations of Asia Minor. He tells us that the major emphasis of his letter was "the true grace of God" and to "stand firm" in that grace. In this message, we pull back the veil to see that grace, and discover two ways in which we stand in it as Christian sojourners.
The experience of future grace often depends on whether we will take refuge in God, or whether we will run for cover to other shelters.
In Acts 9:1–11, we witness the dramatic conversion of Saul, a man breathing threats against the church, when the risen Jesus confronts him on the road to Damascus. Matthew talks through how God's overpowering grace interrupts rebellion, exposes spiritual blindness, and reveals the glory of Christ. Saul's story shows that conversion is not self-improvement, but a divine collision that turns enemies into followers and messengers. It also reminds us of our union with Christ - what is done to His people is done to Him. This is not just Saul's story; it is an invitation to surrender, repent, and be transformed by the same grace today.
The word “grace” brings sweet thoughts; a kind and giving word. However a grace that saves must be a grace received when given. Are we learning and embracing the grace of God?
Whenever we sense the slightest rise of covetousness in our hearts, we must turn on it and fight it with all our might using the weapons of faith.
2 Samuel 9:1–13 We live in a world of earning and deserving. Promotions come to those who perform. Favor goes to those with the right background. But grace—true grace—operates by a completely different economy. It seeks out the undeserving and pulls them to the table. From 2 Samuel 9, Pastor Chuck Swindoll tells the remarkable story of Mephibosheth, a crippled outcast brought to eat at King David's table as one of his own sons. In this obscure Old Testament story lives the clearest picture of how God's grace works. See yourself in Mephibosheth. Embrace the grace God extends to you freely, and enjoy the life available to those who sit at His table!

Grace is not simply the pardon of our sins; it is the power to press on in obedience. We trust in God's ever-arriving gracious power to enable us to do what we should.

God's anger must be released by a stiff safety lock, but his mercy has a hair trigger. He is infinitely energetic with unbounded and unending enthusiasm to do us good.
Why does faith not nullify the grace of God? Because faith calls all attention to grace and magnifies it, rather than nullifies it.
-Ephesians 10:1-10- A deeper understanding of the Grace we have received in Christ enables us to be more gracious and patient. It cultivates faithfulness, humility and a deep reliance upon Christ who is the only fount from which this blessing flows. May the Lord bless His people this evening through His word and give us a more robust understanding, and appreciation of this glorious gift. This week at Apologia Church the sermon was preached by Wes Fuller from County Line Church and our partner in End Abortion Now! Soli Deo Gloria!
The sovereign grace of God can turn the unplanned place and the unplanned pace into the happiest ending imaginable.
