(Let Your Life Exude God’s Grace Every Day)
TO THE BIBLE: John 1:14
“The sower sows the word. And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.”
LET’S TALK
All favour and earthly blessings come to me unhindered and in abundance; I refuse to be disadvantaged. I’m full of grace,” Tom would always affirm to himself every morning before setting out for the day. And he always found good things happening for him—things he could only attribute to the grace of God working in his life.
The opening verse is one of the ways the Bible describes Jesus: He’s full of grace and truth. Did you know that the same is true for you? In verse 16, it says, “And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace” (John 1:16).
The Amplified Classic Version says, “For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favour upon favour and gift [heaped] upon gift.” Now that you’re in Christ, your life is filled with favor upon favor, grace upon grace.
Every day, you can confidently say, “Of His fullness, I have received abundant grace—grace heaped upon grace. I have grace before God, grace before people, and grace for every task. I have grace everywhere I go, and I’m walking in increased grace every day.”
The Christian life is a life of endless grace; there’s more than enough grace for you every day. There’s no need to be overwhelmed or stressed out by life’s challenges.
There is no need to struggle. Act on the Word. Hebrews 4:16 says, “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
What grace do you need? Is it grace for your academic studies? Grace for your family? Grace for your friendships? Grace to manage your time?
That grace is available to you in abundance; receive it. Always affirm that you’re full of grace and that your life is full of divine favour, everywhere and every day.

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for the outworking of your grace in my life, which causes me to grow and manifest the beauty, character and blessings of your Spirit. My life is full of grace heaped upon grace, favour upon favour, and blessings upon blessings, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
