Are you worn out, trying to make the Christian life work for you?
Are you trying to earn grace?
If so, then take a deep breath and relax in these sweet Words from your Spiritual Bridegroom today:
“My endless love, My Spirit is the Spirit of grace.”
“Simply put, I am Grace personified.”
“And there is nothing kinder, nothing more loving that I could do for you than to make eternal union with My Holy Spirit possible.”
“For the unbeliever, grace is My eternal life available for the asking; it’s a gift to be received through believing into Me.”
“And this gift was made possible when I laid down My life on the cross.”
“For you, My beloved bride, grace is the 24/7/365 availability of My life to be enjoyed by you and expressed through you.”
“When you believed into Me, you received the fullness of My grace.”
“And fullness means ‘fullness.'”
“When you believe, either consciously or subconsciously, that you are lacking anything you need from Me or that you have to earn or deserve what you receive from Me, you are erroneously living under a law-based system rather than grace.”
“That’s like a royal choosing to live as a homeless person on the streets.”
“The Law was given as a standard for living—a way to define sin—and to ultimately cause all who are living under it to throw up their hands in utter frustration because they could not keep it perfectly.”
“Perfection is the Law’s standard, and no one except Me lived a perfect, sinless life.”
“My apostle Paul communicated My purpose for the Law beautifully when he told the church at Galatia that it is the guardian that takes you by the hand to lead you to Me so that you can be made right with Me through faith.”
“Your life of faith in Me and My finished work on your behalf is intended to be one of sweet rest.”
“A privileged life where you simply trust My indwelling Spirit to inspire and empower your living from the inside out.
Dear reader, are you ready to exchange your “trying” to make the Christian life work for “trusting” that Christ’s finished work on the cross is all that is necessary for you to enjoy sweet rest in your Spiritual Husband, Mr. Grace Himself?
