Never Below Grace

No matter how terrible you think you have fallen in life, you cannot fall below the grace of God. Are you a murderer, ritualist, prostitute, fraudster, rapist, armed robber, philanderer, shrewd businessman, corrupt politician, sex maniac, lesbian, homosexual, witch, wizard, adulterer (-ress), fornicator, backbiter, hater, liar, and what have you? God still loves and can help you. 

2 Corinthians 12:9  says : "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."


You must understand that Jesus solely came to the earth for grace towards men. He came to put sinners in right standing with God. He did not come to judge the world. 

John  3:17 says: "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."

No matter where you have gone wrong, you only have to return to God. The devil will always accuse and condemn you in your thoughts, that God cannot forgive you but such is not true. How can you believe him when you know he's been a liar from the beginning? You just have to accept Jesus into your life and watch your life have a sudden turnaround. God loves you so deeply and patiently awaits your return to Him, even as time runs out for you if you remain in sin. 

Romans  5:8, says: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

Some people, upon mere hearing that God grants grace, use the half knowledge as a yardstick to live in sin, without a proper understanding of grace. Grace can be explained as unmerited favour or undeserved mercy. Grace can be explained as living for God with God. Grace is also fondly explained as God being involved in the race of a man's life. It never means opportunity to live in sin. Dwelling in sin, and also expecting grace to continue after you have known the truth is dangerous.

Romans  6:1-2, says : "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?"

There are many benefits to gain in Jesus. This is what the devil is fighting to prevent people from. He did it and out of craftiness, succeeded against Adam and Eve. I pray for you, according to the word of God in Job 5:12, the Lord shall disappoint the devices of the crafty, so that his hands shall not perform his enterprise against you in Jesus name!
