I desire to speak to you today about My grace...My unmerited favor which I bestow upon you.
IN HIM WE HAVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD, THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS, ACCORDING TO THE RICHES OF HIS GRACE WHICH HE MADE TO ABOUND TOWARD US IN ALL WISDOM AND PRUDENCE. (Ephes. 1:7,8)
Know that it was by My grace that you have been redeemed through My shed blood and forgiveness of sin. My grace is available in abundance to all who will receive it.
THAT IN THE AGES TO COME HE MIGHT SHOW THE EXCEEDING RICHES OF HIS GRACE IN HIS KINDNESS TOWARD US IN CHRIST JESUS. (Ephes. 2:7)
O My children, you cannot comprehend My love for you and My desire to pour out My grace upon you to help you in your walk with Me.
FOR BY GRACE YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED THROUGH FAITH, AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS LEST ANYONE SHOULD BOAST. (Ephes. 2:8,9)
My children, I chose you to be Mine, before the foundation of the world and it was not by your works but by My grace that you have been saved.
AND IF BY GRACE, THEN IT IS NO LONGER OF WORKS, OTHERWISE GRACE IS NO LONGER GRACE. BUT IF IT IS OF WORKS, IT IS NO LONGER GRACE; OTHERWISE WORK IS NO LONGER WORK. (Rom. 11:6)
By your own efforts you can do nothing. So many believe that by their own works they can achieve their goals. Be assured, My little ones, that only by My grace can you accomplish what I have put in your hearts to do for Me.
BUT TO EACH ONE OF US GRACE WAS GIVEN ACCORDING TO THE MEASURE OF CHRIST'S GIFT. (Ephes. 4:7)
Yes, My children, I have given unto each of you a measure of My grace. Learn to lean on My grace as you accomplish the tasks I have given to you.
BUT HE GIVES MORE GRACE. THEREFORE HE SAYS: 'GOD RESISTS THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.' (Jas. 4:6)
It is not My desire that anyone be proud because of My gift of grace but to be humble as you walk in My grace to serve Me and to reveal My grace unto others. Beloved, search My Scriptures and learn of My grace and how to walk in it and you shall see more power in your ministry for Me. You need to move out with My grace helping you and My power in evidence to win souls for Me.
BUT GROW IN GRACE AND KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. TO HIM BE THE GLORY NOW AND FOREVER. (2 Peter 3:18)
