The Grace of God

- by depending on our works, we can never please God and until we are made righteous, we can't walk in righteousness.

- so for our sake, Christ took our disgrace that we might recieve abundance of His grace and His gift of righteousness.

Romans 5:17 says For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.

- we need to focus on Christ and stay connected to His presence

- because the more we depend on God, the more He showers on us His grace (mercy, favour, and divine ability). Ability to reign in life.

Galatians 2:20 says: I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

- sin makes us run from our source of grace. But it's in times we feel we don't deserve grace, that we really do need grace the most.

- the grace of God empowers us to live above sin, to be an overcomer and to live the victorious life in Christ.

- you can start reigning in life today and right now.

- please say this prayer with us:

Dear Lord, I want to stop depending on my own ability and strength and Lord I surrender my all to You.
