Grace

Thinking about Your amazing grace today... and how much more I need to see myself through Your grace, approach Your throne of grace, and live in and from this place of Grace.

Meditating on the words to the song by Chris Tomlin ~ Your Grace is Enough and then reading & meditating on several excerpts from "The Power in Prayer" by Charles Spurgeon

Great is Your faithfulness oh God
You wrestle with the sinner's heart
You lead us by still waters in to mercy
And nothing can keep us apart

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Great is Your love and justice God of Jacob
You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of Your salvation
And all Your people sing along

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Your grace is enough
Heaven reaching down to us
Your grace is enough for me
God I see your grace is enough
I'm covered in your love
Your grace is enough for me
For me

The Throne of Grace ~ excerpts from chapter 5: "The Power of Prayer" by C.H. Spurgeon

Hebrews 4:16 - "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy. and find grace to help in time of need."

"It is a throne for dispensing gifts. Come, then, you that are poor as poverty itself. Come, you that have no merits and are destitute of virtues. Come, you that are reduced to a beggarly bankruptcy by Adam's fall and by your own transgressions. This is not a throne that glorifies itself by the taxation of its subjects, but it is a throne that glorifies itself by streaming forth like a fountain with floods of good things. Come, now, and receive the wine and milk that are freely given. 'Yea, come, buy wine and milk, without money and without price." (Isaiah 55:1)

Grace is on the throne. How does it become so exalted? Well, grace has a throne by conquest. Grace came down to earth in the form of the Well Beloved, and it met with sin. Long and sharp was the struggle, and grace appeared to be trampled underfoot by sin. But grace at last seized sin, threw it on its own shoulders, and, through all but crushed beneath the burden, grace carried sin up to the cross and nailed it there, slew it there, and put it to death forever. Grace triumphed gloriously. For this reason, grace sits on a throne at this hour because it has conquered human sin, has borne the penalty of human guilt, and has overthrown all its enemies.

Grace is enthroned this day, friends, because Christ has finished His work and has gone into the heavens. It is enthroned in power. When we speak of its throne, we mean that it has unlimited might. This is the dispensation of grace, the year of grace; grace reigns through righteousness to eternal life. We live in the era of reigning grace. "

Hebrews 7:25 ~ "Seeing He ever liveth to make intercession", Jesus "is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him."
