Grace When We Need It - NCCG.ORG Ning Network Archive 2008-10

by Peter Stanway

2 Corinthians 12:9 ......... But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

Yahweh has shown us great grace in forgiving us and saving us but here are many occasions when we need to extend that grace to others.

At times like these Yahweh gives us opportunities to grow in grace, usually, by putting us in situations where our grace is stretched beyond our human limitations and we need to depend completely on the suffiency of the grace of Yahweh.

At other times, we need a supernatural gift of grace that allows us to cope with ‘impossible’ circumstances when only the intervention of Yahweh can help us.
I am thinking of the special grace that comes upon Christians when they are on the threshold of leaving this world and being promoted to glory. It is called ‘dying grace’ and it enables the Christian saints to make the transition with a heart that is overflowing with joy and thanksgiving and a soul that is in perfect peace.

In a similar way there is, ‘martyrs grace’. This enables us to be put to death for our faith while rejoicing and glorifying Yahweh.

These unique gifts of grace are only given to us when we need them. We cannot receive this kind of grace to reassure us that ‘everything will be okay’ when we find ourselves in challenging situations.

We need faith to believe that Yahweh is faithful and Yah'shua will never leave us. This faith gives us durability and the gift of great grace will give us copeability when we need it.

Master Yah'shua, thank you for showing us great grace in action. Amen
