Galatians 1:15-16 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called [me] through His grace, to reveal His Son in me…

One of the kingdom principles we need to capture is the revelation of God’s grace, mercy, love and goodness.

Throughout the Bible, we see a grace that makes ordinary men great vessels in the hands of God.

In Acts 9:1-9, the apostle Paul was an insolent man, until he met with this grace. Grace transformed him into a voice of the church as is Moses’ experience; while he was busy tending the sheep, God appeared to him. (Exodus 3)

1 Corinthians 15:9-10 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God [which was] with me.

This is the testimony of a man who was a persecutor of the saints. God’s love reached out, picked up a blasphemer and persecutor, and turned him into one of the greatest apostles of all time. If I am to ask you, what can’t the grace of God do? (2 Timothy 1:12)

In Galatians 2:20, and 6:14, Apostle Paul attributed his labor to the grace of God. Capturing this mystery will keep pride away from your heart, for you will realize that even the living sacrifice of your life, is not enough.

God is complete all by Himself yet in His grace and mercy, He chose to involve you and me in his program. This is the reason, it is a great privilege to be used by God.

God’s Grace and mercy are revealed through divine instructions given to us. However, our responsive obedience to these instructions determines our results. The more you appreciate and embrace God’s grace, the more you are empowered to walk in the divine laws, which are your protection.

1 Timothy 1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting [me] into the ministry.

Apostle Paul acknowledged that it is God who counted Him faithful and not his faithfulness.

May God help you to remain humble and simple even after He has lifted you, so that you may experience acts of grace and mercy like Moses did.

It is never too late to be right with God. If you have messed up, come back to His presence, He is merciful and gracious to make more grace and mercy abound to you.

STAY BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED, WE LOVE YOU.
