MORE THAN ENOUGH

Romans 5:17 NIV For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

The Lord has been speaking to me about the fact that, because He is More Than Enough, He has also made us to be ‘more than enough’ to deal with whatever happens in our lives. He reminds us that we are joint heirs with Christ, that we are ‘in Him’, that we have been given the ability to draw on all the resources of heaven through Jesus, by faith in His grace.

It’s a follow on from yesterday that we need to have this mind set that knows that God’s grace is more than enough to deal with each new day as it comes. 2 Corinthians 12:9 AMP but He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you [My lovingkindness and My mercy are more than enough—always available—regardless of the situation]; for [My] power is being perfected [and is completed and shows itself most effectively] in [your] weakness.” 

God doesn’t give us grace for tomorrow or next week, just for today. 

Why is that? It’s because  it keeps our eyes totally fixed on Him, drawing on His strength and ability. We have no power in and of ourselves, but in Christ we have available to us the power that raised Jesus from hell and the grave. 

God’s grace along with His gift of righteousness are what cause us to reign in this life. It’s His grace that causes us to prosper when all around us says otherwise, it’s His favour going ahead of us into the coming interview, doctor’s appointment, whatever our day looks like. Our part is to acknowledge His grace and receive it as the gift it is to do everything and have everything we need to do and have today.

We can go out, with confidence in our God, knowing His grace is making us more than enough to handle situations as they arise and know we are Overcomers in life, that God has made us to be Victors not victims. 

God has promised us we can reign in life, not kicked round by the enemy, but we can put him beneath our feet and have the victory over him, because of Jesus and His grace. Glory to God. Amen. 😊
