Grace for the Race

Introduction: If it was not for our Lord’s AMAZING GRACE, we would not be able to run victoriously in this race. Yet, because of His not only AMAZING, but AVAILABLE GRACE, we are equipped and enabled to finish our race.

1. Grace for the humble!

“6But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” (James 4:6)

The opposite of humility is prideful. Watch out for a superficial humility. Thanksgiving to the Lord because He extends GRACE to those who will acknowledge their total dependency upon Him…not just with their lips but with their life!

2. Grace for the hell-bound!

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Eph 2:8,9)

Do you see His GRACE? Have you experienced His AMAZING GRACE? Jesus gives us what we do not deserve… His GRACE!

3. Grace for here and now!

“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.” (Rom 5:20)

Sin is powerful, but God’s GRACE is much more powerful! “Grace is greater than all our sin!”

4. Grace for the hereafter!

“1For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.” (Titus 2:11-13)

God’s GRACE is sufficient for both here and preparation for the hereafter.

Conclusion: Do you need a dose of Holy Ghost GRACE today?

Look up.
Look in.
Look out.
Look for.

Will you join me in praising our Lord Jesus today for His GRACE?

“10But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.” (1Cor 15:10)
