Do you have something you have been wanting to give up but you can't give it up? Do you have something you feel God is wanting you to do, but you haven't been able to do it?
The scripture says you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you to do those things and the way you can do those things is through His grace. He will empower you with the ability to do the task.
Life is an adventure if we just let the grace of God move in our lives. It doesn't matter if we've messed up, or the devil's tried to stop us, the grace of God is always there if we will just access that grace.
God's hand of grace is extended toward us. In His hand He holds what we need. We must reach out our hand into the realm of the unseen and take hold of what we need. That's faith. Then we must declare we have received it until it reaches the realm of the seen.
From the time we take hold until the time our answer is manifested, we must thank Him that we have already received. Remember we receive when we take hold, not when we see the results.
