Grace
-How you introduce something will be how it is used.
Story- If a man gives a tribe in Africa a range rover to help with transportation and moving of
heavy things from place to place but focusing mainly when dropping it off on the A/C the TV
inside and the windows, and never shows them properly how to drive. They will not get the
MAIN reason they have been given that vehicle, and miss out of all the benefits of it. This is
what the body of Christ has done with grace.
-1.9 Percent of 5,000 Church going Christians define grace as1. Gods love 2. Salvation 3. Forgiveness of sins 4. Unmerited Gift/Favor
The church has not introduce Grace the way God introduces grace in His Word.
Grace- Empowers us
Biblical Definition! Charis- Devine influence on the heart and its reflection into the life.
John 1:16- And of his fullness have all we received, and grace for grace.
2 Corinthians 7:1- Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves
from all filthiness of the body and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Pastor Daniels Prophetic definition from Holy Spirit Grace is the divine empowerment to
excuse all your excuses and walk Holy.
1 John 2:6- Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.
Titus 2:11-12- For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly,
righteously, and godly, in this present world.
What if there is no influence on the heart will there be a salvation? Salvation means to be
healed, delivered, preserved and made whole?
Does the church look like that? Does the church look Victorious? Is it because they do not know
what GRACE really is or should I say know ALL of what Grace is.
This is good news my friends. When the problem is meAt least I know that I can change that.
When the problem is my beliefs I can change thosewhich means the problems can be solved.
That sure empowers me.
1 John 4:7- As He is in this world so are we
Well just for pastors and men with a direct call to ministry.
Look here is Gods word at a waiter that cleans tables ------>

Acts 6:8- Now Stephen, a man full of God's grace and power, performed great wonders and
signs among the people.
2 Corinthians 12:8-9 Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave
me. But he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in
weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power
of Christ may rest upon me.
Jesus needed to be full of grace and truth. Notice there is a balance of only 2 things he was full
of.
John 1:14- But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God,
even to them that believe on his name:Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the
flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God . And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among
us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace
and truth.
WHAT JESUS WAS FULL OF WE RECEIVED! Jesus is FULL Of the ability of God that
there was nothing He encountered that there was nothing that was beyond His ability.
TRUTH SHOWS ME what mind and by HIS GRACE its supplied and by FAITH I can
receive it!
Truth without grace makes you leave the church feeling bad and condemned. Grace is not a
license to sin. I never needed a license before. Grace gives me what I need to stop being a sinner.
You can have all the grace in the World but if you do not have good direction on
what Grace is you cannot believe it and move in it, and will be just like the range
rover in the tribe John Bevere talked about.
Why do we sing His grace is sufficient. Its because we have heard and been
taught a gospel that makes our job waiting and Gods job doing.

Romans 3:22-26 - 22

Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and
upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

24

Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

25

Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his
righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

26

To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of
him which believeth in Jesus.
GRACE DID NOT COVER SIN!!! THE BLOOD DID NOT COVER SIN!! IT
REMITTED IT!! IT WASHED IT! ITS GONE!! JUSTIFIED JUST AS IF HE NEVER
SINNED!
-Grace supplies faith.
-Our Grace is paid for!
The reason your faith doesnt work is you dont know that your grace has supplied
everything already.
God gives you ability you dont have through grace.
Doctor Tim Lahays definition of grace- Where mans ability ends and Gods
begins.
God does not call you to what you can do. He calls you to what He can do through
you. Harfouche
Grace is all of those things we talked about at the beginning. Grace is most
definitely a gift. You did not earn it it was paid for freely. Grace is unmerited favor,
like I said you did not earn it. Grace is forgiveness of sins, and salvationbut the
only way to see manifest Victory in your life is by GODS definition of grace which is
a divine empowerment to live the everything you need for life in Godliness on
earth as it is in heaven kind of life by the Spirit of God full of GRACE.
