Because God’s grace, goodness and mercy which aren’t deserved, is the opposite of your reap-what-you-sew world, few people understand its importance in the Christian life. The marvelous truth is that Christ paid the total price of your salvation by dying on the cross and you can receive it as a free gift . But you have to admit your inability to save yourself and confess your sins. II Corinthians 9:8 explains the place of grace in the life of the believer: “And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things, at all times. having all you need, you will abound in every good work.” The devil will try to convince you that you’re still his slave but you must
exercise your freedom to continually receive the grace of God in order to obey Jesus and be blessed. A love relationship between you and the Lord makes obeying natural and removes the pressure. You need God’s grace every minute. Your part is to depend on Gos while you develope diligence and discipline.
Remember that every talent and every spiritual gift you have come comes from God’s grace and there is no place for pride or boasting.
