Countdown Moment – Your grace is enough

 

Some of you might think that I am over doing this God’s grace is enough.

Some may want just a Joel Osteen message with everything going your way.

God does want to bless us.

God does want us to live abundantly.

God does want to give us good things.

God wants the world to see that he blesses us.

God loves us more than we can image.

But we will have trouble in the world. That’s from Jesus. We will have trouble in the world.

What I hope you keep with you is that, regardless of the circumstance, you have won the ultimate victory. You will be in right standing with God for eternity.

God wants you to live abundantly, so how does trouble fit into abundance?

God will take whatever comes at you and use it for good. Realize that sometimes that good is a lesson for us. Sometimes it is a lesson for all.

If we want to live abundantly, we must be ready to grow. Our discomfort in growing will go away the more that we grow.

It feels uncomfortable at first because we don’t do it enough. Growth is a part of abundance.

Sometimes, trouble precipitates that growth.  No worries, we have already won the big victory.

God’s grace is enough. We struggle and we grow without risk of losing our salvation. If we die, we will still be with the Lord. If we live to be 120, we will still be with the Lord for eternity.

Remember, everything we go through here is temporary. We get joy and sorrow, but eternal joy is promised.

We have health and suffering, but we will live forever in our new bodies.

We have high times and low, but our greatest victory was given to us by Jesus. God’s grace that we know is Jesus is enough.

Let’s say it together:  Lord, your grace is enough.
