“Embrace the Grace”
Scripture teaches that Grace is synonymous with..
(Wisdom (Proverbs 8), the Anointing, the Holy Spirit, the 'Blessing', Christ in You, new creature, partakers of His Divine Nature, the Kingdom of God within us, the Father's Love, supernatural provision, the healing', the joy and peacemaker, the gifter)
Eph. 2:8, 1 Peter 4:10, Zech. 4:6,7
Grace is the very operational power of God. Even where sin is, Grace is working. Few understand and know that Grace is responsible for all the musical, technological, scientific, and any other ‘good’ gifts, creativity, and talents that bring joy, hope, and manifestations to humanity. Romans 5:20
(As the Brothers from the inner-city say…
"It’s ALL Good"…
And the “Grace of God” validates and makes this possible..
Grace is the driving force that is responsible for even a sinner’s gifts and talents manifested. It is the image of God expressed through a person, yet they can be ignorant of it. It is the creative force of heaven. It will even abound where sin is! (Romans 5:20)
Scripture defines Grace as the divine influence upon the heart, and it’s reflection in the life of people. It is also defined as charisma. You know what Grace really means?
It means “Divine nature.” 2 Peter 1:4
Michael Jackson, Will Smith, and other talented entertainers for example, have “expressed a dimension of Grace” through their talents, but have not expressed the Grace in it's most powerful aspect and presentation.
Grace is a realm, characteristic, and essence of the person of Jesus Christ.
Charismatic entertainers are perfect examples of “grace” abounding where “sin” (missing God’s best) is.
Music, sports, & movie fans (“fanatics“) are really responding to the operational gift of Grace that manifests it’s spirit (some call it energy) through everyday people. Romans 5:20
Remember, Scripture defines Grace as the “Divine” influence upon the heart, and it’s reflection in the life of man. It is a manifestation of the Grace of God that has “appeared to all men.” But the Grace that so wonderfully flows in the gifting of all men, is specifically for Salvation in Jesus Christ and its miracle “force” and workings in the life of a believer. (Titus 2:11)
Aren’t some celebrities treated as if they are “divine?”
You will find that regardless of a persons lifestyle, the gift of Grace operating in a “charismatic” flow, can influence an admirers perception of the true “divine.”
That is why people in our society are more captured by “what someone does, rather than what they “say.” If it has “charisma” (Grace) people will flock to it. They want to embrace the “Charisma” (charis) that they are experiencing from people but do not know that Grace is an attribute of God who is the author and the underlying influence of all talents. Romans 5:20
I have come to understand that the gift of Grace for great creativity can be activated with positive thinking, committed dreams, desires, and goals, as well as with simple prayer.. Some seem to be born with it while others appear to be almost “Grace-Less” in terms of expressing gifts, talents, and creativity.
Nevertheless, Grace is the “miracle worker”.. It is the byproduct and prism or the energy of a divine person. It is the prism of the Holy Spirit. Grace is not a “what” but a “whom.” It is the truth expressed in Jesus Christ who said, “ I am the way the “truth”, and the life.” Therefore “truth” is not a what but rather a “who.” Grace is the manifestation and documentation of Jesus Christ.
The early church in the books of Acts understood this and walked in a ‘Great Grace”.. Acts 4:33 (And with great power gave the disciples witness of the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and Great Grace was on them all. Neither was there any among them that lacked..)
These believers embraced the Grace from a posture of “Christ in them” and are responsible for spreading the Gospel of the Kingdom all over the world today.
Grace is also the driving force that births wonderful joy in the earth, has been given to mankind as a gift, and is specifically released for the “supernatural" to manifest in our midst. Although we can see and experience Grace from the standpoint of a “physical” or “comprehensible” perspective, Grace always functions from an “inside” position, working from the position of a man’s heart rather from a “physical“ or outside position..
Yet, that same Grace can be ignored for it’s most potent power and essential purpose, and that is for the purpose of bringing the manifestation of Jesus Christ into every life in the world.
One can “use” or tap into the free gift of Grace for creativity that can bring joy and success to many, but they must respond by faith to that same Grace for “Salvation in Jesus Christ” if they are to experience its essence of “divine” workings and manifestations within their lives. Scripture defines this divine workings as the “God kind of Life” (Zoe), and that more abundantly. (John 10:10)
Then, as the truth teaches us, “The blessing of the Lord “it will” make us rich, and add no sorrow to it. (Prov. 10:22) Many people have tapped into the Grace of God but it is accompanied with sorrow when is not embraced Grace” for its ultimate purpose within Salvation.
Have you noticed how much ‘more’ sorrow that ‘famous’ people seem have - that have “tapped“ into the Grace of God for fame and notoriety, but not for the God kind of (Zoe) life promised in scripture?
Though their talents and gifting’s are the result of the"gift of Grace", and they will “acknowledge God” as their source of blessings, the “divine” in their lives are not manifested or equal in terms of respect, honor , and supernatural manifestation thatgrace in Christ Jesus provides.
We can also see that according to scripture, Grace is a “buffer“ and “protector” of sorts for people that have not as yet accepted and received the atonement of the blood of Jesus for their personal lives. One of the workings of Grace is for the sustenance of a persons very life until they are enlightened with the message and reality of the Gospel of the Kingdom. Scripture makes it clear that Grace for salvation can be embraced through either a personal seeking and elumination (John 17:20) or by way of a “sent preacher” (apostle) that preaches the (true) Gospel of the Kingdom. ( Romans 10:14,15)..
Grace and Christians…
Few understand that for salvation in Christ Jesus, Grace is God’s part, faith is our part. We simply respond to the Grace that God has already provided everything through his promises and redemptive power of the blood of Jesus, and Grace empowers us to live a "divine" life within the supernatural.
For we are saved by Grace, through Faith (the faith of Christ in us Gal. 2:20.. It is “the measure of faith.”)
And that NOT OF OURSELVES…
IT IS THE “GIFT OF GOD”. NOT OF “OUR WORKS” SO NO ONE CAN BOAST THAT THEY ARE SO SMART, CREATIVE, AND TALENTED.” Brother Bleu’s translation.. Eph. 2:9
Scripture gives us a truth that Grace is a guide, teacher, and “the enlightener”, in the scripture, “Study to show yourself “already approved of” God, a “workman” that will not be “ashamed”, rightly dividing the “word of truth”. That word ashamed in this passage of scripture can be accurately translated in the popular colloquial term “diss” the Grace, which means to disregard or to be ignorant of Grace. (the word ignorant is derived from the word to “ignore“). 2 Timothy 2:15
Unfortunately , some have “borrowed the beliefs” of religion and have approached this scriptural admonishing as,
“If I just study enough, then God will approve me.” But there is no amount of study that anyone can do to be approved of God. (“Not by works lest any man should boast?” ) (Romans 5:20) God was telling us to study to “show ourselves” - What God has already approved us of and this is the reason to study the scripture, not to get God’s approval by our own efforts.
In other words, those who approach scripture with this mindset and heart will not be “ashamed” or “ignore” (‘diss’) the Grace. Those that study the scripture otherwise will ultimately become frustrated and “diss” the Grace, because there is no amount of study or anything else one can “perform” to get approval from God. Jesus Christ is our approval and it is by God’s Grace alone. Therefore, we could accurately asses that “Jesus plus something = nothing, but Jesus plus nothing = everything.” This is the epitome of Grace embraced. Amazing Grace!
The good news is, Grace has nothing to do with us. Grace is God’s part, faith is our part. We simply respond to the Grace that God has already provided everything through his promises and redemptive power of the blood of Jesus.
In other words, faith is our positive response to God’s Grace, or faith only appropriates what God has already provided for us. When we understand and know that Grace does the work of God within us, and is with us, we will ‘cease” from our own works, labor, toil, and hard work.., because now Grace has your permission to manifest its life within and upon every circumstance in our lives
We need only to understand, acknowledge, and activate this great power of Grace available for salvation with our faith.. Grace itself will automatically birth the outside things we need… peace, wisdom, joy, miracles, and plenty of provision.. Amen! (Yes it's, true!)
“If our lives are directed by Grace in Christ, we will experience the supernatural often .
If our lives are not SUPERNATURAL, it is SUPERFICIAL..
We just have not embraced, acknowledged, confessed, sowed into, and depended on the Grace of God to do ALL things in us and through us.. We can not earn it. Just ask with a sincere heart.
Grace is.. The “I AM” living within every born again person. Embrace the Grace!!!! .. And you will see people saved, delivered, healed, and blessed..
Holy scriptures teaches those that embrace the Grace for salvation, can now be a good “STEWARD” of the Grace.
(Eph. 2:8, 1 Peter 4:10, Zech. 4:6,7) and release it for miracle ministry for others, as well as “kingdom of God living” with miracle provision for our own lives.
Embrace the Grace..
