Friday daily devotional by Pastor David Okoye (Ambassadors Word Diet, 29th DEC, 2017) – Grace

Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled. Hebrews 12: 15

If you ever check out grace in the dictionary it will tell you that grace refers to skills that are needed for behaving in a polite way in social situations, or a place of approval, or favour i.e staying in someone’s good graces.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary will also tell you that grace is unmerited divine assistance given humans for their regeneration or sanctification. But no matter how much a dictionary or sensory knowledge seeks to explain this subject matter to you, it is impossible to understand grace except through revelation (from the Word of God or the Spirit of God).

Grace is beyond human favour, it is beyond a special assistance by a deity for humanity. The grace of God is an empowerment. It is an enablement by the Lord on your life as a child of God.

You see, the grace of God in your life is your advantage in life. Ephesians 4:7 says,

Unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of God

Furthermore, Romans 5:17 shows us something,

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.

DECLARATION:
I walk in abundance of grace. Grace is multiplied unto me. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE:

Ephesians 3:7
