Standing by Grace 4

Phil.2.12 – Therefore, my dear ones, as you have always obeyed [my suggestions], so now, not only [with the enthusiasm you would show] in my presence but much more because I am absent, work out (cultivate, carry out to the goal, and fully complete) your own salvation with reverence and awe and trembling *(self-distrust, with serious caution, tenderness of conscience, watchfulness against temptation, timidly shrinking from whatever might offend God and discredit the name of Christ).*

*Standing by Grace 4*

In this Walk of faith, there is nothing powerful like understanding the way God’s grace operates. Grace reveals the heart of Christ, his mandate on earth and how it must be fulfilled in every man’s life. From our theme scripture, many people have misinterpreted this scripture teaching things that awaken believers to deadworks again. A deadwork before God is anything you could do on your own to be qualified, it’s a law that always works against the Way of Faith.

There people who sin and feel they have lost their salvation hence begin fasting to renew it, they even practice giving to renew it and so many other things, ooh how ignorant they’re of the way of God’s Grace!!

See what the next verse says; *Phil.2.13 – [Not in your own strength] for it is God Who is all the while effectually at work in you [energizing and creating in you the power and desire], both to will and to work for His good pleasure and satisfaction and delight.* When i understood this, I sought to remain faithful to the law of Faith because believing is my first contribution in all this, believe that by God’s Grace labouring in you, that addiction can’t stay, that Business can’t fail, you can’t lack, you can’t die of diseases, this is how we know that we shall represent God in our generation.

Because it’s not about how qualified we are, not only how connected we are, how strong we are, all these things are lying vanities and have an end to them; but we have Jesus.. we are qualified because of what he Approved through his death and resurrection, glory to God.
*hallelujah!!*

*Nugget:* Grace reveals the heart of Christ, his mandate on earth and how it must be fulfilled in every man’s life.

*Confession* thankyou holy spirit for this understanding, I increase by Grace, I expand because of God’s strength alive in me, sin and death have no dominion over me, glory to God.. Amen
