During my communion time with the Holy Spirit, He stirred a fresh fuller understanding of the importance of grace working in the follower of Jesus’s life to bring a much deeper, richer understanding of how grace functions and why it is indispensable for the believer’s walk with God.
Grace is not merely a doctrine we have devised as a tool in our lives, but it is the active supernatural ability of God working in us to accomplish what human strength cannot do.
We must firstly recognise that the Holy Spirit is the Minister and Dispenser of the grace of God into our lives. Jesus revealed in John 16:12-15 that there were many truths the disciples could not yet bear at that moment of time, but when the Spirit of truth came He would guide them and teach them all truth.
We also know from Hebrews 10:29 that the Holy Spirit is specifically called the Spirit of grace which makes it clear that grace comes to us only through a relationship with the Holy Spirit. Therefore your communion time with Him is the primary source of grace which includes life and fruitfulness for without Him imparting this in your life, nothing of eternal value can be accomplished.
The Holy defined: grace to me as God’s Supernatural ability working in us to accomplish only what the Lord can do. In other words grace is the supernatural power of God working internally in us to produce what only God can do. Ephesians 2:5–9.
Therefore, what is impossible for man becomes possible by the Holy Spirit’s empowerment in our lives because grace makes us capable of accomplishing God’s purposes in ways that exceed natural limits. Ephesians 2:10.
We are told in Romans 5:17 that through Christ, we as believers receive an abundance of grace, and the gift of righteousness, resulting in us having the ability to reign in life through Jesus Christ. Making it clear that abundant grace given is for us to reign in life.
Even though Adam’s fall brought death, Jesus’ resurrection brought an entirely new reality for us of life, empowerment, and dominion. When it says “those who receive an abundance of grace ”it indicates clearly that grace has already been given and merely needs to be received, embraced, and used.
The Holy Spirit said this means that resurrection power is already our present reality because of what Jesus accomplished for us especially through His resurrection is the foundation of our reigning in life. So you are meant to partake of resurrection life now, and not merely know about it as a doctrine. The Grace of God restores to us what Adam lost and positions us to live in triumph, and no more defeat.
Grace working in us makes the impossible possible for us on a daily basis as the apostle Paul declared in Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” This reality is the testimony of one empowered by grace because grace enables what human effort could never accomplish because it breaks limitations, lifts burdens, and overrules impossibilities.
The Holy Spirit reminded me that grace empowers us to live above theft, death, and destruction which Jesus spoke of when contrasting His mission from satan’s which is to steal, kill and destroy. However Jesus came that we might have life and life more abundantly. John 10:10. Which attests to the fact that grace is the means by which this abundant life is received, enjoyed, and manifested.
We must remember that grace works through the finished work of Christ which Hebrews 6:17–20 shows clearly how God has anchored His promises with two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for Him to lie the body and blood of Jesus.
Through Christ’s victory over every opposing force, grace now empowers us as His followers to take charge of outcomes in their lives. This is why the Apostle Paul could confidently say in Philippians.1:19 & 20 that everything would “turn out” according to his earnest expectation and hope that in nothing would he be ashamed.
We as followers of Jesus are called to receive abundant grace to reign in life on the basis of what Jesus accomplished for us to walk in. We know that we cannot reign in life by your own righteousness but only the gift of righteousness Jesus has given us carries the power to enforce this victory and our part is to receive it and not try to try to earn it by our works.
The Holy Spirit gave me a beautiful picture of receiving grace saying that grace is like receiving a fully paid first-class ticket knowing that though you can’t afford it yet you are in possession of an official ticket completely paid for and your only responsibility is to go to the Airport and board the plane. Your responsibility is to actively receive and step into what the Lord has already provided.
Today through this word is your call to rise up and step into your position of reigning in life because the Holy Spirit is calling you to rise from all discouragement, limitations, or defeat. Take hold of the grace impartation in this message and step fully into the place of reigning in life because walking in this position for your life brings glory to Jesus.
March forward boldly in the Spirit of ruling and reigning as you bear much fruit that remains so the Father is glorified through your life and the Kingdom is expanded in Jesus name. Amen.
In the mighty name of Jesus, I decree that the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness are rising within you now. I declare that every limitation is breaking, every ceiling is shattering, and every assignment of the enemy against your destiny is overturned. By the Spirit of grace, you will reign in life with divine authority, supernatural ability, and unstoppable momentum.
The grace from Jesus lifts you, empowers you, and carries you into places human strength could never reach as You walk in resurrection power and you operate in God’s ability standing clothed in Christ’s righteousness. From this day forward, you reign in life boldly, victoriously, and fruitfully to the glory of Jesus’ name. Amen.
