Thoughts for Today – The Grace of God – By Laurence Torr
I have been thinking about God’s wonderful grace, there is nothing we can do in or of ourselves that makes us right before God.
God has done everything through the accomplished and finished works of Jesus Christ. we are righteous, and justified, and sanctified and redeemed, and we also have the word and ministry of reconciliation because of what Jesus Christ accomplished.
Knowing also we are Heir of God and Joint Heir with Christ; we have boldness to go to God throne of grace to find mercy and help in the times of need, we have that direct access to God, because Jesus Christ was faithful, all we had to do was believe on Jesus Christ and confess Him as Lord and believe in our hearts that God raised him from the dead, that was all we had to do. what wonderful grace from God to us through Jesus Christ.
We absolutely lack nothing, being made complete in Him, there is therefore now no more condemnation to us because we are in Christ Jesus and the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made us from the law of sin and death, this is so big
That condemnation that came into this world through the fall of Adam and Eve when they sinned, what entered into this world was death, sickness, fear, lack, poverty, and separation from God.
but Jesus Christ put things back into order spiritually for all mankind, and when we receive the spirit of God, we are no longer under this world kingdom rule or satan who is the god of this world.
We can take the authority that God has given to us as sons of God and rule and reign in this life by one Jesus Christ, and when we realise our redemption what was accomplished through Christ, we will no longer allow doubts worries or fear to dominate us.
satan has no authority over the believer only what the believer allows through lack of understanding and knowing who God is and who they as believers. and what they have right now as sons and daughters of the highest God the creators of the heavens and earth and His son Jesus Christ our wonderful Lord and Saviour.
Grace is that we rest in Him and that God does the works, He leads us and guides us by His holy spirit, He shows us what to do in live time situations
when we go to Him, He brings His word to our mind, and reminds us of His great and precious promises. God is willing and able to do mighty things for us and by us when we believe Him,
When we see God’s grace, then God see’s our faith, because Our God is a faith God, our Faith in Him and His willingness and ability to perform what is needed in our life pleases God, He is a re warder of those that diligently seek Him.
The only labour we are to do is to enter into His rest it reminds me of What Jesus said, come unto me all you that labour and are heavy laden take my yoke upon you and learn of me.
I was meditating on this verse and it came to me just like this, when Jesus said take my yoke, it was like he could have said take my grace upon you and learn of me, for my yoke (grace) is easy and my burdens are light.
Grace is that God does the work and we do what He shows us to do, this was how all God’s great men and women moved as we see in the Scriptures.
When we ask God to show us His grace and what is means for us and to others, God will open our understanding and in any area we ask Him.
As we know the Law refers to works, what the person was to do, to stay in right standing with God in the old Testament.
Grace is what Jesus Christ accomplished on our behalf; He paid the price for everything so we could receive this grace by faith and freely enjoy all things.
Here are wonderful Scripture and truth that will bless you.
