But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
(Heb. 11:6)
The grace of God comes straight from the throne, directly from the Father Himself. God’s grace has to be received, however, and you receive it with your faith. Without faith it is not possible to please God, and without faith it is not possible to access His grace, either—even saving grace.
God is not interested in how you look to other people or how they perceive you. What He cares about is utilizing you to produce the fruit that He wants. Grace is all about how God can use you to help free people from the clutches of the devil.
God will give you an abundance of grace to rule. However big your mountain is, there is a mountain of grace that is bigger. You need to speak to your mountain, saying, “God has given me a grace for that. You are moving!”
Prayer for Today
Father, thank you for being my shield and my protector. Thank you for being my reward. Thank you for providing superabundant grace that is bigger than any mountain in front of me. In Jesus’ name … Amen.
