GREATER GRACE
But he gives a
greater Grace. Therefore it says, "God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble." Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
James 4:6-7
Saints, we do not live and survive based upon our strength and wisdom. As Christians, followers
of the living God, we look to our Father to supply to us both wisdom to live and grace (divine unmerited strength) to be the people of God. But to receive the grace, we must first submit to our God.
He desires His people to be humble before Him. He expects us to be obedient and to follow His way. As we remain humble, His grace is sufficient for any and all
circumstances.
As we humble ourselves and receive His grace, we are then empowered to overcome the enemy satan.
As James States, "Resist him and he will flee." By and through God's grace, we can resist, stand before the enemy and tell him to "get out! in Jesus' Name!" We will then be as His disciples who
returned after being sent who said, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your Name!" .Our victory will be assured through the His amazing grace!
Apostle James
