Grace is God’s unmerited favor.
Grace Is God’s ability working on our behalf. Grace means to get what we don’t deserve. Success
is what we achieve by what we receive from heaven. It is better to be God made
than to be self made. Thos who are self made can become self destroyed. But
when God lifts us to higher levels, nothing can pull us down. David the young
shepherd once had oil, a symbol of the spirit of God, poured on his head. By
the time he was thirty, he had become a king. That was the grace of God in
operation.
A woman that had been barren for over five
decades suddenly became pregnant long after she had menopause. She gave birth
to a son at the age of ninety years. Her name was Sarah. That was the grace of
God. It turns impossibilities to possibilities. There was once a man. His name
was Jabez. Jabez means “son of sorrow” His mother named him Jabez because
she experienced excruciating pain when he was born. That name marked him for
life. Whatever, he touched, he failed. Until one day, he decided he had had
enough. He was sick and tired of being sick and tired. He prayed.
1Ch 4:10
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest
bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me,
and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God
granted him that which he requested
Have you come to the end of your ability?
Do you feel like Jabez? Do you feel there is more to life than what you have
now? Do you want to break the limitations around your life? Prayer will do it,
effective, sincere and fervent prayers from your heart.
Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto
the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time
of need.
God’s word make can make His grace
available to you. The word of God created this natural world. Till today,
everything responds to the word of God. Those things that will not cooperate
with you must cooperate with the word of God in your life. That will be your
testimony.
Act 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you
to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to
give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
The word of God has the power to deliver
to your destiny into your hands. You must decide to draw grace from the word of
God every day. Start your day by meditating on the word of God.
When you receive unusual grace from God,
it will require unusual work to get unusual results. You must identify the area
of work in which you can see the proof of God’s grace. Focus on
your area of specialty. Become an expert. Set goals. Make big plans. Then do
everything legitimate and possible to achieve your goals. Go the extra mile.
Connect with mentors that had succeeded in that field. Strike while the iron is
hot. Or strike until the iron is hot. Don’t wait for things to happen. Make
things happen. Don’t wait for the perfect conditions. Make the conditions
perfect.
