Grace Is Sufficient

2 Corinthians 12:7-9 (The Message) Because of the extravagance of those revelations, and so I wouldn't get a big head, I was given the gift of a handicap to keep me in constant touch with my limitations. Satan's angel did his best to get me down; what he in fact did was push me to my knees. No danger then of walking around high and mighty! At first I didn't think of it as a gift, and begged God to remove it. Three times I did that, and then he told me,

My grace is enough; it's all you need.
My strength comes into its own in your weakness.
Once I heard that, I was glad to let it happen. I quit focusing on the handicap and began appreciating the gift. It was a case of Christ's strength moving in on my weakness. Now I take limitations in stride, and with good cheer, these limitations that cut me down to size—abuse, accidents, opposition, bad breaks. I just let Christ take over! And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become.


There may be an issue or a situation in your life that you are seeking relief or deliverance from. The good news is, God has already provided everything you will ever need pertaining to life and godliness through Jesus Christ. Things don't always come to pass in an instant. But, God may be telling you today as he told Paul - My grace is sufficient for you to overcome. You may be weak, but in Jesus Christ, by the grace of God, he causes you to overcome. He gives you the strength to be more than a conqueror. God always causes you to triumph, but He will not override your soul (mind, will & emotions). He desires that you prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers. If your mind, will and emotions are not renewed to the will of God and His promises, you will be hard pressed to overcome. But when your mind is renewed to His promises, and your will is conformed to His will, His grace is more than enough for you to overcome! He promises that as you rely on His grace, His power will be present in you.

Have A Blessed Day
