Today’s Reading:
Ephesians 2
But God still loved us with such great love. He is so rich in compassion and mercy. Even when we were dead and doomed in our many sins, he united us into the very life of Christ and saved us by his wonderful grace! He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ! Throughout the coming ages we will be the visible display of the infinite riches of his grace and kindness, which was showered upon us in Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 2:4-7 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God of all grace say,
Grace abounds. This is a time where My grace is abundant. The grace river is flooding its banks and is pouring into your life. This isn’t leftover grace, this is abundant, super-abundant grace. It’s available, and it is coming to saturate your life and scene. Grace is being poured into your life, is flowing into and flooding your life for natural advancement and supernatural exploits. This grace flood is eroding the sand from beneath the feet of the wicked, and they will have nothing left on which to stand. Yet My people will be swept up in it and be in delight, in full joy, and they will instinctively know how to navigate these new an unfamiliar floodwaters of grace.
For by grace you have been saved by faith. Nothing you did could ever earn this salvation, for it was the love gift from God that brought us to Christ! So no one will ever be able to boast, for salvation is never a reward for good works or human striving.
Ephesians 2:8-9 TPT
The water is rising, and it will bring delight, laughter and unexpected fun for My lovers. And the wicked will find themselves caught in eddies and vortexes of destruction. They will drown in my grace. As My grace waters rise, you will see — it will become increasingly evident that I Am elevating My people for works that take great faith, great risk and have no charted course. Yet they will go forward. They will go forward on a path that they cannot see except in their heart, because this untraveled road is covered, flooded by My super-abundant grace.
We have become his poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny he has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!
Ephesians 2:10 TPT
The products being produced in my super-abundant flood of grace will be different. What is produced will look different. It will sound different. It will be perceived different, and it will hit different. We are wading and floating and riding into uncharted waters and stranger times than you have known. Yet these will be wonderful times for those who know how to stay afloat in My grace, who know how to advance in My deep waters of grace, who are not afraid to get out of the boat and walk forward in faith atop the flowing waters of My grace. This is a time of different, with unseen terrain and superabundant grace; and it requires hearts of great faith. This is an adventure of a lifetime washed in My super-abundant grace and marked by advancement and promotion for those with hearts full of faith. This is a time of difference. It will be different, strange and wonderful. Move forward according to your faith.
How to Respond
- Ask the Lord to give you a fresh vision for how to move forward in his increasing, super-abundant grace.
- Pray, Lord, thank You for the rising floodwaters of Your super-abundant grace. Help me to enjoy the change and not try to cling to what I know. Help me to be in delight and full of laughter and joy. Help me to move forward in bold faith and full assurance that You have charted out the course before me, and You will bring me higher and farther than I could have ever gone without Your great grace flooding my scene.
- Declare, I was flooded with such incredible grace, like a river overflowing its banks, until I was full of faith and love for Jesus, the Anointed One! — 1 Timothy 1:14 TPT
- Decree, I will walk by faith and not by sight. I will not be dismayed or fearful that I can no longer see the path ahead. I will delight in the reality of the Lord’s superabundant grace that is carrying me higher and farther than I could have gone on natural terrain in my own strength. These are days of great difference, and the lovers of the Lord will move into great adventure, natural advancement and boldly take on supernatural exploits.
