Today I want to share from Joseph Prince's "Grace Inspirations". (Be sure to check this out on his website daily!)
GOD'S UNSTOPPABLE GRACE
Romans 5:20 Moreover the law entered that the offense might
abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,
When a top executive is charged for corruption or a church
minister is caught in the very act of adultery, you will probably hear the
phrase “fallen from grace” being used of them. We have come to believe that
when someone falls into sin, he falls from grace.
But God wants us to know that when someone falls into sin,
he does not fall from grace—he actually falls into grace! Thank God
His grace is there to put the person back on his feet.
The Bible tells of prostitutes and corrupt tax
collectors—sinners—who fell into God’s grace and got back on their feet. If the
sin in their lives could stop God’s grace, they would never have been able to
receive His grace of healing, help and power to live right.
Now, it is important you understand that God hates sin
because it destroys our lives, relationships and bodies. Sin is evil! But sin
is not overcome by us talking about it and relying on our willpower to overcome
it. It takes God’s grace to destroy sin. In fact, it is when you are under His
grace that sin has no dominion over you (see Romans 6:14). It is when you see
His grace in providing His Son to put away your sins and make you eternally
righteous that sin will not dominate you.
The devil will say to you, “You think that you can still
expect God’s blessings after what you did this morning?” That is when you must
remind yourself that Christ alone is your perfection and righteousness. All of
us have faults. None of us deserve God’s blessings. That is why we plead the
grace of God, which is His unearned, unmerited and undeserved favor toward us.
AMEN! There has been so much condemnation flinging around from believers concerning other believers! Instead, let's simply pray that they will humble themselves to receive this wonderful, powerful, everlasting, never failing, bought and paid for by JESUS, GRACE! AMEN!
