Rhapsody of Realities 12 April 2026: Be Conscious of His Abundant Grace
SCRIPTURE: For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17).3-14).
The grace of Jesus Christ is a divine resource that every Christian must consciously take advantage of. The apostle Paul, writing to Timothy, instructed him to “…be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 2:1). In other words, take advantage of His grace. How do you take advantage of His grace? It starts with you being conscious of His grace at work in you.
As you step out of your home to work or to your other engagements, be fully aware that the grace of God is at work in you. This grace brings divine favour that works in your behalf, positions you for opportunities and ensures you stand out.
However, there’s a key principle to remember: to continually experience favour working in your life, you must also show favour to others. Grace is not a one-sided experience. A person who has received grace becomes a distributor of grace. A man or woman of favour distributes favour. In doing so, favour continually flows back to them.
The psalmist writes, “Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about” (Psalm 32:10). The word mercy here is from the Hebrew word “chêsêd,” which means covenant kindness. This covenant kindness is a special kind of kindness; it means God’s divine favour that He cannot turn away from; as a result, He cannot but bless you.
Knowing this, therefore, what should your response be? Psalm 32:11 gives the answer: “Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.” Hallelujah! Every so often, rejoice and shout for joy as your expressions of faith and gratitude for God’s abundant grace at work in your life. Rejoice in the Lord every day. Get into your closet and have your moment of joyful celebration before the Lord. Shout for joy and declare, “I am favoured of God! I walk in divine grace! His covenant kindness surrounds me!” Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your grace at work in me, which has positioned me for favours everywhere, opening doors of opportunity, and causing me to excel in all I do. I extend the same grace to others, walking in love, as I rejoice in your covenant kindness. Your mercy and favour surround me every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
