And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. (John 1:16 NKJV) What is grace? And what does grace for grace mean? Grace in the Greek means this: of the merciful kindness by which God, exerting his holy influence upon souls, turns them to Christ, keeps, strengthens, increases them in Christian faith, knowledge, affection, and kindles them to the exercise of the Christian virtues. Grace for grace means simply as we move from one task to another God will keep us strong and keep is in the righteousness of Him through Christ to be able to start and complete a task that is given to us by the father. And knowing that God is a forgiving God we know if we happen to mess up in a task that all we have to do is ask for forgiveness and our faith is not damaged and we still remain in the fullness and abundance of Him. Grace allows us to remain and stay as a righteous son/daughter. We, also, must give grace to each person. How? By when someone messes up (when they allow the flesh to rise and they sin) we help them get back up on their feet (spiritually) and keep pushing them towards God and remind them that they are still Gods beloved and are still the righteousness of God!!! #day44ofprayingforrevival
