Text: 1 Corinthians 15:10

One of the beautiful things we have been made partakers of, is the grace of God. Grace here means God's ability that is made available for us to function in. God has made His ability available for us, but we must first recognize and accept it, before we can function in it. God has given us richly all things to enjoy (1 Timothy 6:17), and that includes his grace - ability. And it will be an abberation if we don't use it.

One important thing that God's grace does for us it that it makes us what God has destined us to be. Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15:10 that "by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me." Without the grace of God functioning optimally in him, he would not have achieved as much as did. It was God's ability functioning through him.

We all have access to this grace. As long as you are born of God, His ability is in the you. Recognize it and put it to maximum use. If you are reading this but you are not yet born of God, you can do it right now by accepting Jesus as Lord and Saviour, because God loves you and He wants you to function in His grace. Lean on His grace that makes us sufficient in all things (2 Corinthians 9:8).

Keep winning daily.

Prayer:
Dear Lord, I lean on Your grace, which You have made available for me to function with. By Your grace at work in me, I become all that You have destined me to be, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
