Romans 4:16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all
FAITH: THE ACCESS TO GRACE
The primary definition of grace is that it is God’s enablement, the power that rests on an individual and causes them to do what they could not do in their own strength.
There is always a certain measure of grace required for anyone who seeks to live up to God’s standard in any area of life.
So how do we access the grace we need? Our theme Scripture teaches: _“It is of faith, that it might be by grace.”_ This means that for every measure of grace you desire, all that is required is faith to receive it.
In its simplest form, faith is _“the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”_ (Hebrews 11:1). You need to believe that the grace you require is already available. Stop asking anxiously and come into a mindset of thanksgiving. That is how faith works.
God has already supplied all things by His grace. Your role is to take hold of His promises by faith, trusting that all things are already working together for your good.
Today, choose to step out in faith rather than fear or self-effort. Speak God’s promises over your life, give thanks for the grace already provided, and act in the confidence that His enablement will equip you for every challenge. Let your faith become the channel through which God’s grace flows unhindered.
Praise the Lord!
