- 0:00Speaker 1: It's your early morning praise Fardi. I am Sherry Mackie,
- 0:04Speaker 1: and it's time right now for today's word.
- 0:09Speaker 2: His grace is enough.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Romans five twenty says, but where sin abounded, grace abounded
- 0:17Speaker 1: much more. You haven't superseded God's allotment of grace, so
- 0:23Speaker 1: you can calm down. You haven't made a mistake so
- 0:27Speaker 1: big that God ran out of mercy for you. Second
- 0:31Speaker 1: Corinthians twelve and nine says his grace is sufficient for you.
- 0:35Speaker 1: In other words, his grace is enough for you. I
- 0:40Speaker 1: like the New Living translation. It says each time he said,
- 0:43Speaker 1: my grace is all you need. My power works best
- 0:46Speaker 1: in weakness, So now I am glad to boast about
- 0:49Speaker 1: my weaknesses so that the power of Christ can work
- 0:53Speaker 1: through me. See the apostle Paul was referring to his
- 0:57Speaker 1: thorn in the flesh that kept him humble. Instead of
- 1:01Speaker 1: living condemned by your past mistakes of failures, why don't
- 1:05Speaker 1: you go boldly to the throne of God and receive
- 1:08Speaker 1: that grace and that forgiveness that he promises In First
- 1:11Speaker 1: John one and nine that says, if we confess our sins,
- 1:15Speaker 1: he's faithful, he's just, and he will forgive us our
- 1:18Speaker 1: sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. God is waiting
- 1:24Speaker 1: to gladly welcome you. But here's the key. He's not
- 1:29Speaker 1: going to force you to come to him. And look
- 1:31Speaker 1: fifteen the compassionate father. He didn't make the prodigal son
- 1:36Speaker 1: come back home. No, it was the young man's choice.
- 1:40Speaker 1: It was his decision, after he allowed sin to abound
- 1:44Speaker 1: in his life, to go back to his father's house.
- 1:47Speaker 1: See when he took steps to return to his father,
- 1:50Speaker 1: his father came running with grace and mercy that was
- 1:54Speaker 1: much more abounding.
- 1:57Speaker 2: When we feel guilty in when.
- 1:58Speaker 1: We feel condemnation, we have to know that God's grace
- 2:04Speaker 1: is more than enough. God sees our failures already covered
- 2:09Speaker 1: in the blood of Jesus Christ. Now we have to repent,
- 2:13Speaker 1: we've got to receive the forgiveness, and we've got to
- 2:15Speaker 1: see ourselves without fault. When you become a child of
- 2:20Speaker 1: the most High God, he made you worthy. You are
- 2:24Speaker 1: the righteousness of God by Christ Jesus. It's not your righteousness,
- 2:29Speaker 1: it's His righteousness. So lift your head up and then
- 2:33Speaker 1: see yourself the way that God sees.
- 2:35Speaker 2: You, forgiven, cleansed.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Righteous, his grace is enough. Father, God, thank you that
- 2:46Speaker 1: we have been freely justified by Jesus Christ's redemption and
- 2:50Speaker 1: that your grace is enough for us.
- 2:52Speaker 2: Thank you that the power.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Of your grace rules over where sin is abounded in
- 2:56Speaker 1: our lives. God, we believe that your grace has no
- 2:59Speaker 1: limits in Jesus' name. Hey, now that's your word for today.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Take that.
- 3:05Speaker 1: Apply that to your everyday life and you could need
- 3:08Speaker 1: to be encouraged and inspired.
