Leverage Devotional For Today Message:
Grace is getting what we don’t deserve. Grace is love’s gift to us; it is the vast, limitless, and endless provisions of God made for us before we were created. Grace is the divine substitution for human gratification and edification. It is the beautiful impact of God’s Spirit on our hearts, producing visible results. There are five prepositions that best help to describe the working of grace in the believer, which are: ‘for’, ‘with’, ‘in’, ‘through’, and ‘by’. God’s grace is for us, with us, in us, through us, and by us. Grace ‘for’ us talks about Christ’s provisions for us in redemption. Grace ‘with’ us is Christ’s identification with us in redemption. Grace ‘in’ us talks about our oneness with Christ. Grace ‘through’ us is Christ’s partnership with us and Grace by us explains our service for Christ and humanity.
There is no lack of grace because God, through Christ Jesus, has provided for you all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). God, through Jesus Christ, has blessed you with all spiritual blessings in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). All you need to do to access these blessings is faith in God by Jesus Christ. Faith comes by hearing the Word. Faith begins where the Word is known, received, and believed. You have to search the scriptures to know what God has blessed you with, in Christ Jesus.
Beloved, God is at work in you (Philippians 2:13). When you pray, God imparts grace on your Spirit and there is an accumulation of it in you. The Greater One is within you (1 John 4:4) and you must know that He is not there to sleep; He is working in you. Do not be ignorant of the dealings of God in you. There is something God is doing in your family, your career, your ministry, etc. As often as possible, ask to know in the place of prayer. It makes it easier to accomplish things that grace has concluded in you already for it is an outworking of grace within you.
MY SOLID FRONT (CONFESSION)
Thank You, Lord, for the fullness of Christ available to me. I receive Your grace into my life, and I come into full awareness of Your grace in Christ. I declare that I am conscious of the workings of grace in my life and family in Jesus’ Name. AMEN
Further Meditation: John 5:17‐20; Luke 4:18‐20
