Grace - Grace is God's unmerited favor - His goodness toward those who have no claim on, nor reason to expect, divine favor. The principal manifestation of God's grace is in the form of a gift to those who were condemned.

Scripture Reference - Eph 2:8-9 "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.

Once saved, you have to realize, there is no more condemnation, there is no more trying to get God to do things, or to love you or to accept you, or to let you come into His presence.

Christ lives in you and who He is, you are. He is in you and you are in Him. You are one. John 17:22

You are free to be. You are free to be loved by Him, free to walk in His love and power. Free to live life to its fullness, full of joy, full of grace, full of life. Free from sin, free from guilt through the cross.

Colossians 1:20-23 (Letters from Heaven: By the Apostle Paul)

20 And by the blood of his cross, everything in heaven and earth is restored brought back to himself—back to its original intent, restored to innocence again!21-22Even though you were once distant from him, living in the shadows of your evil thoughts and actions, he reconnected you back to himself. He released his supernatural peace to you through the sacrifice of his own body as the sin-payment on your behalf so that you would dwell in his presence. And now there is nothing between you and Father God, for he sees you as holy, flawless, and restored!

Your value

Your value is amazing, He saw something in you so valuable that most of us don't see in ourselves. When we recognized the free gift go righteousness and true freedom is in our lives, we can accomplish all that He paid for.

Romans 5:6-11

For when the time was right, the Anointed One came and died to demonstrate his love for sinners who were entirely helpless, weak, and powerless to save themselves.

Now, who of us would dare to die for the sake of a wicked person?g We can all understand if someone was willing to die for a truly noble person. But Christ proved God’s passionate love for us by dying in our place while we were still lost and ungodly!

And there is still much more to say of his unfailing love for us! For through the blood of Jesus we have heard the powerful declaration, “You are now righteous in my sight.” And because of the sacrifice of Jesus, you will never experience the wrath of God. So if while we were still enemies, God fully reconciledh us to himself through the death of his Son, then something greater than friendship is ours. Now that we are at peace with God, and because we share in his resurrection life, how much more we will be rescued from sin’s dominion!i

And even more than that, we overflow with triumphant joyj in our new relationship of living in harmonyk with God—all because of Jesus Christ!

Sometimes we simply quit fighting to improve, to apply, to grow and we grow comfortable with where we are but sometime unsatisfied.

1 Timothy 1:18-19

Fight the Good Fight

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck,

Our only warfare should be to stay in The Faith of what God has revealed to you and stay there.

All of His promises are yes and amen.

Conclusion

Through that free gift of grace, He will accomplish all that He spoke and all that He has started.

Ezekiel 12:26-28

Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, look, the house of Israel is saying, ‘The vision that he sees is for many days from now, and he prophesies of times far off.’ Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “None of My words will be postponed any more, but the word which I speak will be done,” says the Lord God.’ ”
