Sin Cannot Stop God’s Grace!

People thought God is like our parents..
We do good. we get good. Good stuffs, praises and rewards etc.
We do bad, we get beat. We must be punished..grounded..no allowance for the week
...no clubbings..

Well, I used to think of God that way too.
Just before I became a Christian, I used to think God
will punish me everytime I commit a single mistake.
No matter how big or small it is. I feared He's always at my
back , trying to catch me.

That's why for years, I kept my distance from His presence.
Some wrong teachings had led me to fear Him.
Instead of calling on Him in times of trouble, I blamed Him
for everything. Lolx! I oould just laugh at myself few years back.

Today!

I am just so glad Pastor Prince has changed the way I think
of God.
Right now, even in my saddest part of my life, it's Him I think of.
God is not behind my troubles and heartaches..He is there to lift me up.

God didn't promise a perfect world, but He sent His Son
Jesus, so we can have a perfect and victorious life in this
mad, fallen world.

What a revelation, right?

I'm sharing another powerful daily devotional message from Pastor Prince.
Enjoy and have a great day ahead!

"Sin Cannot Stop God’s Grace!"


Romans 5:20
20Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,

When a top executive is charged for corruption or a church minister is caught in the very act of adultery, you will probably hear the phrase “fallen from grace” being used of them. We have come to believe that when someone falls into sin, he falls from grace.

But God wants us to know that when someone falls into sin, he does not fall from grace — he actually falls into grace! Thank God His grace is there to put the person back on his feet.

The Bible tells of prostitutes and corrupt tax collectors — sinners — who fell into God’s grace and got back on their feet. If the sin in their lives could stop God’s grace, they would never have been able to receive His grace of healing, help and power to live right.

Now, it is important you understand that God hates sin because it destroys our lives, relationships and bodies. Sin is evil! But sin is not overcome by us talking about it and relying on our willpower to overcome it. It takes God’s grace to destroy sin. In fact, it is when you are under His grace that sin has no dominion over you. (Romans 6:14) It is when you see His grace in providing His Son to put away your sins and make you eternally righteous that sin will not dominate you.

The devil will say to you, “You think that you can still expect God’s blessings after what you did this morning?” That is when you must remind yourself that Christ alone is your perfection and righteousness. All of us have faults. None of us deserve God’s blessings. That is why we plead the grace of God, which is His unearned, unmerited and undeserved favor toward us.

Sin does not and cannot stop God’s grace. If His grace can be cut off by sin, Jesus would never have come to save us because we were all terrible sinners. But praise God, “where sin abounded, grace abounded much more”!

My friend, God’s grace is bigger, deeper, wider and more powerful than all the world’s sins put together. Receive His grace right now to walk in total victory over that weakness or evil habit in your life!
