God's Grace is Sufficient For Me? Tamil Christian Message | Bro Karthik C Gamaliel

God's grace is sufficient for every moment of every day “Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me…” We hear the term “grace” a great deal. “There but for the grace of God, go I,” we say. Or we are asked to say “grace” over a meal. The Bible uses the term to refer to God's unmerited favor to human beings. The best definition of grace is probably this one: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) The Bible teaches that there is no way to earn God's approval, favor or forgiveness. Which means you can quit trying! Read More Rather, God's forgiveness for sin is available to all who trust in him through faith. Grace is the reason God sent Jesus to die for our sins that we might be forgiven. Grace is the reason that God made you. In fact, grace is the reason for every good thing that God gives. We are deserving of none of it. But because of his own character he chooses to give, freely. There are many of us who keep trying to earn God's approval. It's like the frog who kept trying to jump halfway to the pond. He never got there. Grace by definition is a gift. “And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace.” (Romans 11:6) There is nothing you can do to make you unworthy of God's grace. In fact, by definition, grace is a gift to the unworthy. God's grace is greater than your deepest, darkest sin. God can even forgive that. “But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 5:20-21 But grace isn't just for the future. God's grace covers your inadequacies even right now. God's grace is for each moment of today. You need God's grace not just for forgiveness, but to remove sin from your life. Grace means that you can quit feeling inadequate. You're not perfect, and you'll never be in this life. You need God's grace to think of your life, your circumstances, everything around you as God does. God's grace is greater than your shortcomings, failures, weakness, sinful desires, feelings of inadequacy and your own self-image. Trying to earn God's favor is like a child trying to pay you for a birthday present you gave her. So you say to the child, “Nothing is required. It's already paid for.” God's grace is sufficient for every moment of every day. And we all need it.
