ENDLESS GRACE UPON GRACE - PART 5

FRIDAY 01 NOVEMBER 2024

Reference: John 1:16 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

"For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace."

What is the real truth exhibited as the befitting significance of our versified reference above? Christ is the ideal magnitude of grace beyond calculation. Zero wonder, grace is the front cover of all the blessings purchased by His atoning sacrifice. It is also the active parent of our Christian faith.

The book of Titus stated that grace appeared, bringing salvation for all people (Titus 2:11 ESV). Grace, which is the Son, is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His being. Hebrews 1:3 informed our thought pattern that after grace, which appeared, had provided purification for sins, He descended to heaven and sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven (NIV). Which throne did grace sit at? The throne of GRACE! In other words, the power behind the throne in heaven is GRACE.

Again the Bible says that when grace had by Himself purged our sins and made the expiation of sin, He sat at the throne of grace, which is made of precious materials such as righteousness and justice, firmly entrenched and incorporated into the design. To instantiate this verity, a versified maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite, numbered as Psalm 89:14 stated that righteousness and justice are the foundation of the throne of grace, both which are the emplaced instruments of divine power. They are two distinct supernatural models that GRACE exerted on the cross through His atoning sacrifice when He appeared on earth.

So the throne of grace was constructed or fabricated out of rare inexhaustible spiritual materials that are invaluable to the Kingdom we represent on earth. Hence, once you become born again, beyond all reasonable doubt, you receive the righteousness and divine justice from the throne room which grace has freely offered to all people on earth. To that effect, Pauline epistolary expression numbered as Romans 3:24 reads, "Yet God, in His grace, freely makes us right in His sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when He freed us from the penalty for our sins" (NLT).

Are you now gaining the comprehension of the power of throne room, which we were brought under its influence through a death on the cross that judged or judicially remitted sin and its retribution upon mankind? Through the administration of divine justice, which is one of the throne room designs, GRACE dethroned the usurped dominion of sin over a mankind that has received Christ.

To that effect, Romans 6:14 reads, "Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God's grace" (NLT). In this versified statement, the phraseology, "living under freedom of God's grace" denotes a functioning ability under the influence of throne of grace through the administration of righteousness and justice exerted by the grace that appeared on earth.

Endless grace upon grace is all about the empowering influence of the throne of a Kingdom on its representatives in the earth realm, for indeed, grace is the glory of our strength. Beloved, in accordance with Psalm 89:14 (NLT), righteousness and justice are the foundation of the throne of grace. More so, the latter part of the versified statement stated that unfailing love and truth walk before God in the throne room as attendants, which for me, is a deep breath of another day's teaching, but I will briefly expound how both elements of divine power apply to our Christian faith.

Now watch this: Unfailing love and truth (which is characterized by God's faithfulness) are both revealed as always going before God as attendants, meaning that God's love and faithfulness are not stagnant or dormant in nature. They equally have a wondrous function to bear witness to the reality of the Kingdom of light on earth. How? They are the two divine expressions that manifest to terminate the Spirit of stagnation and unfruitful endeavours in the life of a Christian.

Once they are activated, nothing can restrict any of two elements their passage into our conscious faith in Christ. In other words, their specialized mode of operation in the throne room will definitely reflect in the life of that Christian who has ceaselessly opened the door for their definite earthly manifestation. Stay tuned for part 6. Shalom!

Dear Father in heaven, I thank you for translating me out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of your dear Son, Jesus Christ.
