GOD'S GRACE

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: GOD'S GRACE

1 Cor. 15:10

Grace: This is one of those special words that belongs to the child of God. God has given us some words that the world just doesn't know how to properly appreciate. For instance, there are words like glory, amen, hallelujah, faith, etc.

The dictionary defines grace as, "unmerited help given to people by God." However, grace is much more than that! Listen to this definition,

"the merciful kindness by which God, exerting his holy influence upon souls, turns them to Christ, keeps, strengthens, increases them in Christian faith, knowledge, affection, and kindles them to the exercise of the Christian virtues." That, my friends, is grace!

In these verses, the great apostle was defending the resurrection of the Lord Jesus against the doubts of unbelievers. He mentions the fact that the resurrected Christ was seen by Peter, the 12, 500 brethren, His earthly brother James and then last of all Paul. Paul proceeds to tell his readers that because of his sins and attacks against the church, that he was the least of the apostles and is not even worthy to be named among them. However, Paul goes on to say that he knows God has used him and that anything he has, is, or ever will be, is because of the precious grace of God.

I would like to remind each of us that the same is true for us all. Because of our sinfulness we deserve nothing less than an eternity in Hell apart from the presence of the Almighty. However, because His grace was revealed unto us in the Person of His Son the Lord Jesus, we can be saved and used by the Lord in a wonderful fashion.

I would like to show you some of the possessions that belong to the child of God because of grace as I continue in tomorrow morning meal.

LET US PRAY
I PROPHECY THAT GRACE OF GOD WILL SINGLE US OUT FOR A POWERFUL AND UNSTOPPABLE BLESSING IN JESUS NAME
