GRACE

“A gift from the heavenly father given through His Son, Jesus Christ”

The first and most important thing we need to know about the grace of God is that it is divine and it takes the spirit of God to understand and comprehend it.

Grace is the divine influence which operates in humans to regenerate and sanctify, to inspire virtuous impulses and to impart strength to endure trial and resist temptation; and as an individual virtue or excellence of divine origin.

 The power of grace started its work in life from the moment we are born into this world with a cry that brings about celebration in heaven and earth.

The grace of God is the unmerited and undeserved favor that the lord bestow upon us when he sent his son, Jesus Christ to die for our sins, thereby securing eternal salvation for us. The grace of God gives us the desire to diligently serve the lord and the power to continually do his will. It sustain and empower the daily life of a Christian. There is nothing we can do without the grace of God, it fights for us when we are ignorant and open doors for us in great and high places.

It is almost impossible not to make a mistakes and sin before the day retires and go to sleep, but the grace the heavenly father continually bestow upon us never cease to work for us and bring us back to his glorious presence.

 Peter denied Christ three times, but the grace of God waited for him and the lord accepted him into the fold with a welcoming heart of love. Paul criticize the sons and daughters of Christ, killing them in numbers, but the lord still met him on the way to Damascus, revealed himself to him by Grace and still welcomed him under the banner of his grace in spite of his atrocious sins and past.

The Grace of God is the divine influence on the heart of a person and the reflection in such life. There is a peace and freeness of the spirit you get when the grace of God works for you. May the good Lord continue to nourish our life with his divine grace in the name of Jesus.

In God’s love,
