Grace

Grace is that divine favor and unmerited love and power that is God given that you must access through faith. Ephesians 2:8: For by the Grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. Grace is an enabling power or an empowerment to do things that you cannot do in your natural ability. God is talking about the Grace in 2 Peter 1:3: According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue. Glory is the manifested word or promise of God that has been filled in the life of a believing Christian. It can be seen. The Grace of God is that force behind the manifested word. In the Old Testament before Jesus came we had Moses who gave us the law. For example if your marriage failed, divorce was given by law to justify. After Jesus came we no longer had to live under law because we now have the Grace to succeed. John 1:16: says And of his fulness have we all received, and grace for grace. Meaning that God gives you the grace to rescue sin and gives you grace to have the power and unmerited favor to succeed without using your own natural ability. John 1:17: says For the law was given by Moses, but Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. On the day you got born again God gave you two gifts; the faith and the grace. Faith is belief and hope in the promise that you will receive. Grace is that enabler that is empowered. Born again means that you have the Grace to be successful in the things that people have tried to live by the law cannot be successful. The Grace of God should be embedded in the heart of every believing Christian and is reflective in their lives. Hebrews 12:28: Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. God has provided the Grace for every believing Christian to be able to live a life that is pleasing and acceptable to God.
