“Abundant Grace”
Thursday, May 16, 2024Key Verse
“And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.” 1 Timothy 1:14
Text — 1 Timothy 1:12-17
Message
God’s abundant grace means that He will always love those who have received of His grace, and He will also do what is best and good for the friends of Jesus that love Him. He will keep transforming them into His likeness, and He will use them to shine forth His love to others. Abundant grace is God’s gift for only those that are His friends. So if you have not given your life to Christ you cannot receive of His grace.
Children should know that where grace is, sin cannot come near. God’s grace is not just extended to us at salvation, but at every level of your life. Grace is God’s Riches at Christ’s Expense. This means coming under the grace of God makes you free from the curse of the law. To experience God’s abundant grace, you must repent today so that God’s love will be extended to you. Then continue to grow in grace as you daily pray, read, meditate on God’s word and obey all that it commands.
