Today’s Reading:
Ephesians 2
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!
Ephesians 2:5-6 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God of all grace say,
Grace is waiting in the wings. As challenges arise, grace is waiting in the wings. As the path before you opens, grace is waiting to guide the way. As gates that were previously closed open, My grace is there waiting to go before you. Change is here, but My grace, my infinite, rich grace will go before you, will guide you and will make the path passable for you.
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. 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 2:7-9 TPT
It’s My rich, lavish grace that provides the air you breathe. Will it not fill every other space where I have called you to tread? I have not asked you to go anywhere My grace has not already gone before you. Live in the sweetness of bright hope for the steps and the moments and the days ahead, because I Am doing something new that will be marked heavily by My grace. It won’t be anything for which you can boast. All those around you will see these next steps as the evidence of My marvelous, rich grace on your life. What’s coming next is something for which no one can take credit. No one can claim to have the talent or insight that obtained this. It will simply be said and known that it was only by My grace. Don’t fear the steps before you. Don’t fear the new days ahead. There’s not one step I have called you to take that is not preceded by My infinite 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
Choose to live in the posture of celebration and anticipation. Choose to allow your soul to sing and overflow with great joy, because My great grace is with you now, and it has already gone ahead of you into the places and moments where I Am drawing you and leading you to go. In temporary assignments and permanent ones alike, My grace is already there awaiting your arrival. Obey my voice. Be very courageous, and take each step. Where I Am calling you to go, My grace is already there.
How to Respond
- Take a deep breath and rest in the assurance that the Lord is guiding you with His grace.
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You that I’m not doing this alone. Thank You that You see me and already have a path marked out before me — even if it’s not yet clear to me. Thank You that Your grace is more than sufficient to lead me forward and to give me success in all that You have called me to do.
- Declare, May my only boast be found in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. In him I have been crucified to this natural realm; and the natural realm is dead to me and no longer dominates my life. – Galatians 6:14 TPT
- Decree, the Lord’s grace is guiding me and opening the path before me. I have nothing or no one to fear. The Lord’s great grace is bringing me to places and opportunities I could have never gotten on my own. I will prosper in the places the Lord leads me as I bow in humility before Him and acknowledge that I am only here because of His grace.
