For out of His fullness [the superabundance of His grace and truth] we have all received grace upon grace [spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing, favor upon favor, and gift heaped upon gift]. James 1:26 (AMP)


The grace of GOD is an enabler; it infuses us with abilities. It was grace that gave David the ability to kill Goliath with a sling and a stone; although he had torn lions and bears with his bare hands while in the wilderness, yet he had never slain a giant, Goliath was his first. Grace placed a super on his ability and projected his efforts.

The GOD-factor produces the Grace-factor.

Grace does not mean non application of effort; however the work of grace introduces GOD’s Omnipotence to man’s strength. It is GOD’s Supremacy overriding man’s effectiveness. GOD’s grace is supplied to us when we step aside for Him to do what we can’t, after we have done or tried what we can.

Confession
The Lord by His Grace supplies me with strength to do much more than my current ability. GOD’s Grace is multiplied to me again and again as I step aside for Him to do what only He can do in me, for me and through me.

Blessings...
