CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I want to talk a little bit about the grace of God. When I think of the grace of God, I think of my sins being forgiven. I think of Jesus on the cross. I think of his his life given for you and for me. I think of forgiveness. Unmerited favor.
And yes, my sins have been washed away, BUT my sin nature is still hanging on. Whether it’s lust, or pride, or greed, that nature is hanging on.
I must remember, I am FORGIVEN by his grace, AND by his grace I am given DIVINE STRENGTH to live in a way that pleases God. God’s grace is the power to obey. The power to change. The power to leave those sins behind and live a life of obedience to the glory of God.
It is no accident that all within the same chapter of James we read:
- You do not have, because you do not ask
- He gives more grace.
- “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
- Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
- What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.
