Acts 4verse33 โAnd with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.โ
Glory be to God! I trust that these lessons have been a great blessing to you! We all need the grace of God on a rich and abundant level, no matter what we do. Grace can abound and should abound. When His grace begins to abound, you will never be the same, and things will be better. So I have been sharing with you some of the key elements that make his grace multiply and today, by His grace, I will share with you another powerful insight into how grace can abound. If you are ready, here we go!
ACCESSING GREAT GRACE:
3. Stay grateful. This is another important element in making his grace abound. I have discovered that gratitude multiplies the grace of God in someone’s life. So my dear reader, if you want to abound in grace in your life, you need to stay grateful. A grateful person will live a graceful life. 2Cor4v15. So how grateful are you? The more grateful you are, the more graceful your life will become, and this principle is also true in reverse. This is why you need to avoid complaining or murmuring as much as possible because those who do this never really enjoy God’s grace on a rich and abundant level. So how would you rate yourself when it comes to being grateful? We all need to be like the great Apostle Paul because he was a man who epitomized great grace. After all, he was grateful. (Eph1v15-16: Col1v3: Philip1v3-4).
From my studies of God’s word, I discovered that gratitude and grace are from the same root word in the Greek language. So it’s no surprise that grateful people live a graceful life. So it’s time to imbibe this culture of gratitude if you want God’s grace to keep abounding in your life. In fact, gratitude also has a multipliers effect on things. So as you abound in gratitude, your blessings, joy, peace, and other good things also multiply.
Therefore my admonition and charge to you today is to choose gratitude over grumbling! As you fully embrace this culture, may you experience the wonders of his grace!
