Topic: Making Grace Count.
Memory Verse : 2 Corinthians 6:4. But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
Bible Reading :2 Corinthians 6:1-3. Key Verse :v1.
We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
Grace is that magnanimous dimension of God that drops on a man things that he is not qualified for. Through the channel of grace we who were sinners and far away from the covenant were redeemed and restored to a place of fellowship with the Father and by the help of his Spirit. We are now sons and daughters of the most high God. *Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.” 1 Peter 1:8-11.
Now the purpose of grace is for transformation and empowerment of the beneficiary. The transformational espect of grace causes the old man of sin to die in us, so that the new can be activated. The empowerment dimension of grace causes the release of power into our spirit man for daily christian living and to carry out divine assignment. “He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” John 1:10-13.
Grace is an investment of heavenly resources. Every investment therefore is expected to yield dividends. In like manner, we have to consciously labour to make the grace of God as invested in us count in life by reason of impact. This impact can be in the form of our changed lives that makes us a blessing to as many as come across us in life. Another way of making grace count in our lives is by making ourselves available to be used by God himself to win our World back to our Lord and Savior. “And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and5 hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.” 2 Corinthians 5:18-20.
Prayer :Thank you Father God because your grace invested in my life can never be in vain. Help me to live in fellowship with you by your Spirit. Let my life manifest the beauty of your grace by reason of impact in Jesus precious name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Acts 2:1-13.
