Grace For the New Year

Introduction: What about God’s GRACE? Isn’t it absolute Amazing? D.L. Moody, the great evangelist, once said, “The CHRISTian life is all of God’s GRACE, from ROOT to FRUIT”! Stop & think about God’s Grace. Stop & THANK Jesus for Him not doing to us what we deserve! Instead THANK Him for His GRACE.
1. God’s GRACE is AMAZING!
“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)
Have you trusted in the GRACE of God to forgive your sin?
2. God’s GRACE is AVAILABLE!
“For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.” (Titus 2:11)
According to Paul, inspired by the Holy Spirit, our Lord makes His GRACE available to all.
3. God’s GRACE is ABOUNDING!
“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.” (Rom 5:20)
Sin pulls us down in a pool of shame and guilt. But God’s GRACE lifts us up out of it!
Conclusion: One last thought. God’s GRACE is SUFFICIENT!
“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.” (2Cor 12:9-11)
New GRACE for the New Year!
