1st Peter 4:10. “As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” STEWARDS OF GRACE. Many facets of grace stand out as I consider God, with divine intent, has given much to me. Pre-conversion sanctification, a heritage Generations of fore-bearers experienced God’s grace And passed it on – unknown perhaps But now I look at a family tree –
God saved many in the past – Now that same grace is extended to me.
A commitment to truth, to the Bible, to grace – Was passed on to me – now here, in this place – I have opportunity to minister to others As a steward of what was ministered to me – Grace to live daily with dignity and honor As a representative of heaven, of a kingdom, and a King Grace that sustains in dark times and good – Grace from God’s storehouse given to me to pass on.
The Gospel of God’s grace – full and complete Every spiritual need sinners have, is in the Gospel met. Unfolding to others through clay vessels – Human channels telling of mercy and free grace. Fulfilling a commission – a calling from above To pass on truth – to minister grace to hearers To open eyes to divine light, to give hope – To tell of grace and peace – to save the lost.
“Gracious God, there is no doubt that Thy grace is sufficient for every need. The supply is limitless from Thy infinite and gracious Person. I thank Thee now in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
