Grace The Power To Change

Part 7

The Manifold Grace of God

The word “saved” comes from the Greek word sozo. What does it mean and why is it important to us?

Sozo means to save, deliver, protect, heal, preserve, do well, make whole, keep safe, or rescue from destruction. This is important to us because it means that Jesus did more when He died than just give us forgiveness of sin and eternal life. Sozo speaks of ALL Jesus died to give us. Forgiveness from sin and deliverance from the results of sin.

God’s grace is not automatic. How do we get it to work for us?

Grace works in the areas in which we operate faith and faith comes only in the areas where we have heard the Good News about Jesus.

What does the Bible mean by the manifold grace of God?

The manifold grace of God is God’s ability in any area of your life where you have a need. The manifold grace of God can make us able in any area that the Word promises and that we believe, confess, and receive.

What should the goal of our faith be?

Our goal should be to use our faith to receive grace, not to receive things. Our faith will bring us the grace to change.

How can you receive the manifold grace of God in every area of your life?

You receive grace (ability) in all areas of life by accepting and believing you are righteous in Jesus. A man believes unto righteousness, he does not do unto righteousness or perform unto righteousness.

Have you had the “serendipity” principle work in your life?

The dictionary defines serendipity as “coming upon a happy discovery when you are not looking for them”.
