Grace is what God offered to Manvat the cost of His Son. However the condition to receive grace is Salvation i.e acknowldege that Jesus Christ is Lord and accept him to govern your life. Grace is released automatically upon salvation.

FIVE FACTS OF GRACE

1. Grace is the fuel for power. we receive supernatural power on the platform of grace. we se this in Acts 4: 33
" with great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus and much grace was upon them all. Therefore before a believer seeks power, he must receive Grace. so guard your salvation jealously in order to receive grace for supernatural power. To be empowered is to be engraced. it is not possible to carry grace and to be powerless.

2. Grace is visible. Acts 11:23

'When he arrived and saw the evidence of the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts'.
Grace can be seen because it produces visible results. Galatians 2:9

'James, Peter and John, those who reputed to be pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right handmof fellowship when they recognised the grace given to me. they agreed that we should go to tthe Gentiles and they, to the Jews'.

3. Grace can be a continous flow and it also can be discontinued i.e it can cease. Acts 13:43

'When the Congregation was dismissed, many of the Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who talked with them urged them to continue in the Grace of God.'
whatever you did to receive grace, you must continue to do to sustain/ continue it.

4. Grace can be administeredor distributed by carriers/ distributors of grace. 2 Corinthians 8:19

' What is more, he was chosen by the churches to accompany us as we carry the offering, which we administer in order to honor the Lord himself and to show our eagerness to help.'
 Every carrier of Grace has been apponited as a servant for Grace to his/her
 generation.

1 peter 4:10
'Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.'

5. Grace is in Levels. Grace grows and this can been seen in 2 Peter 3:18
'But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.'

OUTCOMES OF GRACE.

1. Grace is the guaranty of exemption from generational disaster. Grace sets you apart and make syou outstsanding.

2. Grace is the guaranty of supernatural favour i.e unmerited and unsolicited favor. Genesis 39:4
'Joseph found favor in his eyes and became his attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household, and he entrusted to his care everything he owned.'

Grace puts you in a position you are not qualified for. It make syou a mystery to yourself and to eceryone around you. Grace makes you God's favourite. It takes  a messenger and turns him into a manager. It is important to note that people who carry grace are in some cases hated and envied.

Grace is the guaranty of access to the ways of God. Grace is the secret of the depth in God. Job 29:2-4

 “How I long for the months gone by, for the days when God watched over me,
3 when his lamp shone on my head and by his light I walked through darkness!
4 Oh, for the days when I was in my prime, when God’s intimate friendship blessed my house"

If you want your life to be wonderful, then you must pres for grace.

Depth in god eqautes depth in life. If you need a towering life then you need depth in God. It takes depth to sustain height. Isaiah 37:31
"Once more a remnant of the kingdom of Judah will take root below and bear fruit above".

Grace is the guaranty of Divine Presence. Carriers of Grace carry divine presence.

Exodus 33:16

" How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”


Everybody needs grace. You need salvation to be saved. God loves everybody. if you know that you do not have any relationship with God, it simply means you are not saved. He is eagerly waiting for you to relate with Him and all you have to do is to accept Jesus Christ His son as your Lord and Savior. ask Him to forgive all your sins and ask Him to come into you life.

YOU ARE SAVED BY HIS GRACE.
