GOD'S GRACE

So there I was doing the Bible Study I mentioned earlier "The Way of Purity" from Setting Captives Free ministry and tonight's lesson was about God's grace. A new concept of grace was presented that I had never seen before. As I contemplated the depth of its meaning while I considered my current situation and my need for total deliverance, I bubbled over with JOY!! God's GRACE has a new and exciting meaning for my life.

The following excerpt is from an auto reply I received when I emailed the answers to the lesson. Today I am on Day 9.

"Grace is the principle that both forgives our sin AND breaks the power of it. Consider this Scripture when thinking of what grace does in our lives:
"For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age." -Titus 2:11-
The way that we will know if we are receiving God's grace is if we are learning to say 'no' to ungodly lust and are beginning to live a godly and self-controlled life. "
Apply this to any situation you need God's grace and you will be amazed at the results. Not only will His grace free us from sin, it nullifies the POWER of sin.
That's it! So simple yet so profound!
