Bob was caught up in the "spirit" where he and the Lord stood by to observe a baseball game. The Lord's team was playing against Satan's team. The Lord's team was at bat, the score was tied zero to zero, and it was the bottom of the 9th inning with two outs.

They continued to watch as a batter stepped up to the plate whose name was "Love". "Love" swung at the first pitch and hit a single, because "Love never fails".

The next batter was named "Faith", who also got a single because "Faith" works with Love. The next batter up was named "Godly wisdom". Satan wound up and threw the first pitch; "Godly Wisdom" looked it over and let it pass, because "Godly Wisdom" does not swing at Satan's pitches.

Ball one!!

Three more pitches and "Godly Wisdom" walked, because "Godly wisdom" never swings at Satan's throws.

The bases were loaded!! The Lord then turned to Bob and told him He was now going to bring in His *star player*. Up to the plate stepped "Grace". Bob said "Grace" sure did not look like much!

Satan's whole team relaxed when they saw "Grace". Thinking he had won the game, Satan wound up and fired his first pitch. To the shock of everyone, "Grace" hit the ball harder than anyone had ever seen.

But Satan was not worried; his center fielder, the Prince of the air, let very few get by. He went up for the ball, but it went right through his glove, hit him on the head and sent him crashing on the ground; then it continued over the fence for a home run! The Lord's team won.

The Lord then asked Bob if he knew why Love, Faith, and Godly Wisdom could get on base but could not win the game. Bob answered that he did not know why.

The Lord explained:
"If your love, faith and wisdom had won the game you would think you had done it by yourself. Love, faith and wisdom will get you on base, but only My grace can get you home. My grace is the one thing Satan cannot stop."


For by Grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.

Ephesians 2:8

You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9

I am a born again true believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, saved by Grace through Faith, by the death and resurrection of My Lord. May our Lord and Saviour hold your hand in the fair days and Carry you through the valleys in days not so fair. Let us all walk by Faith and Not by Sight, knowing that if he is for us then *Who* can be against us....Praise His Holy Name!!

" May The Blessings Of The Lord Chase You Down The Street And Overtake You!!"
