And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me ~ Ezekiel 2:2.

Introduction:

It cannot be overemphasized that every excelling goodness on earth is a product of the grace of God. Grace is favour minus the sweat and the duress of labour. Gracebrings promotion without certain known and essential credentials (Romans 9:16).

No matter how impossible things appear to be, there will always be a performance for the man who has contacted God’s exceeding grace. Even in situations where “able” men have had it rough, the ordinary man with God’s grace will still make a headway, because the Almighty God is on his side.

Grace is an outflow of the blessing of God (Genesis 33:23, 39:21; Exodus 3:21, 11:3, 12:36). It’s a supernatural admixture ofchance and divine timing, which we all call opportunity (Ecclesiastes 9:11). Grace naturally makes you a wonder on earth(Psalms 71:7).

When grace speaks, protocols are suspended, transgressions are overlooked and qualifications (or disqualifications) are set aside. With grace on your side, connections are not too important and, in fact, they’re sometimes ruled out of order. With the backing of grace, age, size and strength are no longer counted as critical factors of enthronement.

Grace and glory are inseparably intertwined! Grace is required to produce glory, which is essential to promote grace. Meanwhile, we all have personal responsibilities to the grace of God.

Our Personal Responsibilities To God’s Grace!

Everyone who has received divine grace, and is duly exposed to the truth of God’s Word via a genuine revelation of the Holy Spirit, must choose to manifest God’s glory and yield sufficiently to justify His wisdom.

There is something locked up in you that the world is waiting for. God’s Word is a seed, and when it’s properly sown into a man’s heart, the man himself becomes a servant-seed (Psalms 22:27-31). This is what makes those who bear the precious seed of God's Word dangerous materials against the devil.

Beloved child of God, the entire creation is waiting with greatest eagerness for you to manifest in glory (Romans 8:18-19). If you delay your manifestation, fake champions will continue to enjoy a field day!

Nebuchadnezzar thought there was no god beside him until the three Hebrew children showed forth the glory of the Son of God (Daniel 3:25). Even Pharaoh thought he was the Alpha and Omega until Moses showed up.

Until you manifest in the glorious power of God’s grace, those you are sent to liberate from intimidation and defeat will continue to wriggle under shackles. If Joseph had died in captivity, Israel would have been helplessly famished, and her glorious destiny would have remained hazy.

Darkness continues its rule unabated until light appears. You carry the spirit of grace and the seed of dominion within; therefore, you are a debtor to the world. The glory of the earth is incomplete until you release the portion of God's glory in you (Numbers 14:21).

It’s Time For Action!

Friends, your “today” is very important to your “tomorrow”. Your today conceives and delivers the fulfillment in your tomorrow. Your feats today are the requisite credentials for your enthronement tomorrow.

Trash the failures of the past, conquer the challenges of the present, blindside the fear of the future, and crush all the roadblocks on your life's journey to distinction. With daring tenacity, push through forcefully, and you won’t experience an empty tomorrow.

Like Benaiah of old, carry yourself with courage in the power of the Holy Ghost (2Samuel 23:20-23). Even when you’re in a difficult arena, and faced with complicated danger or anxious moments, go forth to conquer and be ever set on the course to win in life.

A glorious future is reserved for those who can forget the past and command their nerves to see God in their future(Philippians 3:13-14).

Life has no discrimination against the works of valour. Social status or gender barriers are only in the mind. If you act in valour, your background notwithstanding, you will still earn the honour.

Jael was just an ordinary woman, but she was accorded the honour of a full general when she killed Sisera who, as captain of Jabin at that time, had become a fish bone in the throat of Israel. Thereafter, the entire world sang the praises of her high feat (Judges 5:24-27).

You were not created to live like a commoner. Our Creator-God is the Most High, and you will, most certainly, be dishonouring Him if you live as the lowest nameless creature. Know that answersproduce distinction, and it is results that terminate common insults.

Stop robbing the world of the benefit of your uniqueness. Show up now, and become a “somebody” for God. Dare great things with Him; at the hours of honor you will not be dismayed. Men and brethren, it's time to go forth in the might of the Holy Spirit.

Irreducible Atmosphere for Breakthrough Grace!

There’s a ruggedness of faith that always comes with grace, which makes it impregnable to failure. The following will lubricate the grace of God in your life and invigorate your faith, any day!

A lifestyle of righteousness is very basic here (Psalm 5:12). When Jesus Christ, the Righteousness of God, dwells in you and you consistently yield to Him, grace will never be frustrated in your life (Galatians 2:21).

Furthermore, the way you use your peculiar gifts, talents and treasures to impact lives and make the world better in the power of the gospel will define the atmosphere of the divine grace you carry (Psalms 45:12).

The currencies of grace and glory are to be spent, not hoarded! Let’s arise and go forth, therefore, developing our businesses/careers, winning souls for Christ, touching lives for good and making the world more livable to the glory of God (Titus 2:11).

These, of course, bespeak an ever-readyKingdom-mindedness (Psalms 102:13-14).Primarily, the grace of God is bestowed on us to project the glory and the power of God. When we lay this to our hearts, the grace of God will find a resting place in our entire being.

Nevertheless, please keep in mind that you cannot have the mind of the kingdom if you’re not a citizen of the kingdom. You must be born again (John 3:3). This you can do today by repenting of your sins and embracing the love and the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

As you do, the embodiment of God’s grace, Jesus Christ, will dwell in you supernaturally, and people around you will begin to see sufficient proof of God’s goodness in your life and destiny.

Friends and brethren, this is your due time for glorious manifestations. No force from the depths of hell will be able to hold you down any more. You will start to outrun those who have run ahead of you. The zeal of the Lord shall perform it. You won’t miss it, in the precious name of Jesus. Amen. Happy Sunday!
