Friends, we all need the grace of God to stand and keep standing in a world that is full of changing situations, circumstances and events.
This grace is not deserved by you and me but is freely given because God loves us and wants us to live a life of godly examples for the world around us – so they can see Christ in us and glorify our Father who is in heaven.
So, what must we do to tap into this grace when faced with uncertainty and ongoing changes in our lives and environment? We must anchor our lives on God’s word for us in (Ephesians 6:11) “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes”. This requires:
- Daily meditation on the word of God – The armor of God to shield us from the lies that Satan tells us in our mind. Remember, the battle is in the mind.
- Refute negative thoughts daily – By affirming what you read in God’s word. His word arms us with strength and makes our way perfect.
Friends, this week and year, walk in the grace God has freely given you! If you are currently not a Christ follower, come and experience the special grace of God today.
All glory to God!
