“The Power of Grace”
(For Ministry)
Introduction
Pt.1
Let me begin with a
very important statements
You will never be able to function in the full capacity of your ministry to the Lord ; to others ; and in defeating the powers of the enemy, unless you understand the dynamics of God’s Grace.
The understanding of God’s Grace enables the Holy Spirit to be released in full potential.
When the Lord brought this revelation to me it changed my ministry.
Let’s lay the foundations in order to receive the new revelation of grace and ministry that the Lord has for the upcoming season of Revival.
2 Cor 9:8
Eph 2:8
Heb 4:16
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work (MINISTRY).
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— (PERSONAL)
Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. (PERSONAL / MINISTRY)
Grace
(Important)
We often say that God’s GRACE is His Unmerited Favor
But it goes far beyond this simple statement
It means LIVING in His GRACE
LIVING IN GRACE means…
The awareness of the Lord is with us
Understanding that we have access to God
The forgiveness of sin and freedom from condemnation
No longer being bound to WORKS for His favor (earning approval)
No longer neutralized by our failures
Defeats the tactics of the enemy
Releases the power of the Lord through us
Unmerited “Favor”
His Grace HAS BEEN released for you and your ministry
Important
Understanding Grace is a KEY receiving the Lord’s provision and living in His overcoming life.
Understanding Grace will enable you to see who you are and
live victoriously in your ministry and destiny
Insights
The purpose of receiving God’s Grace is releasing God’s Grace (good work- ministry)
We are to become agents through which God’s Grace is released.
Acts 1:8
But you will receive power (God’s provision –Grace) when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses (releasers of Grace) in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
When God’s Grace is released the Kingdom of God is established.
The Lord’s gift to us is His Grace
