Grace

"My people shall run the race with grace! They shall live life by the grace of God. They will not be disgraced, when they live by grace. For though My people may fall from grace as they try to live by the Law, My grace will not fail them! My grace cannot fail you, for I can't fail you! My throne, which you approach, is a throne of grace! Grace is all that you need, throughout eternity, that is yours by inheritance! Grace has everything that you need for salvation, peace & godliness! Grace is the source of faith, & faith is the channel through which grace flows! You can have faith in Me, because I've given you grace. You have access to Me, through the ministry of grace on which you stand! My grace has drawn you to Myself! Your faith doesn't draw Me to you; rather, My grace draws you to Me! Your faith in Me is a result of My grace for you! You have faith in Me, because I've extended grace to you! Without My grace, you'd have no faith!

My grace entitles you to My kingdom! My grace empowers you for My work! My grace enables you to be witnesses for Me. My grace enforces your victory over the darkness! It's my grace for you, to you, in you, upon you & through you, that has separated you from the world & unto Me! My grace has transferred the authority of Jesus to the Body of Christ! My grace has taken My life, & placed it into you! You have been born of Me, by grace!

You live before world as holiness unto the Lord, by My grace! Grace is My love for you, released to you, & living within you! As you lovingly minister to people, they receive a taste of My grace, through you, as My ambassador!

We have been joined as one, you are in Me, & I am in you, through the wonderful work of grace! The sealing of My life within your spirit has been orchestrated by the Spirit of grace!

Grace is the song of My Spirit; it's the beat of the heart of Jesus! Grace is the answer to your prayers! Grace is the design of My heart. As your Father, I want to flood your life with ever increasing grace! You win life's race, when you run by grace! Grace is the release of the winds of revival upon your land! It's the flooding of the river of life into your families; it's the release of the travailing soul, that yearns for Me to move again! Grace brings it to pass!

Grace makes you gentle, yet it makes you strong! It causes you to weep, & it causes you to rejoice! Grace moves you to compassion, & it'll cause you to roar like a lion! It'll cause you to rise up & conquer sin, while it stirs you to reach out to rescue those caught in sin's grip! It's grace that will produce victory for the faith that you have in Me! It's My grace that will release My Son to return for His Church, & to bring them home to Me!
