Topic: You Are In The Arena Of Grace [TREM Devotional Saturday June 2, 2018]
“Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Romans 5:1, 2
Beloved, you are standing on the arena of grace. The arena of grace is the arena of unmerited, undeserved and unearned favour of God. Stop trying to earn it! Just believe and receive! Any one that is trying to earn what God has already provided is disqualified. Don’t earn it! Stay disqualified and He will qualify you. Put it on His grace. You are standing on grace! That is why you will pass that examination. That is why you will not die poor. That is why you will build that house. That is why there won’t be any abandoned project in your life. You will travel to anywhere you want to travel to. You will drive the car you desire to drive. You cannot fail because you are standing on grace – unmerited and unearned.
When grace is at work, it is not dependent on you. Let God be God. Do you think He does not know about you? He knows every one of us. If He can know the number of your hair, how do you think He does not know where you are and your condition? There is hope for you! God will take you to higher heights. If no one has experienced it, you will set the precedence. We live by the hope of God’s word! The confident expectation that God will come through. God cannot lie!
Do you know why I don’t fret? I know I am standing on favoured ground. I am not mourning. I am not stressed up. I am not anxious. I am rejoicing. I am resting and sleeping; you should be doing the same too. Trust and let Him work! He is not going to disappoint you.
