What is the Grace of God?
Merriam-Webster dictionary defines grace as unmerited divine assistance or virtue given to humans from God. I understood the grace of God as a gift of His divine ability at work. Here are a few of the scriptures expounding the grace of God came to the believers as Gift:
The grace of God was upon Jesus:
And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him (Luke 2:40).
Jesus was full of grace and truth:
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth (John 1:14).
Jesus has the fullness of God and His grace:
And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace (John 1:16).
Thanks be to God for His fullness and grace and so we have His victory.
Stay tune as we shall continue further tomorrow. Remain uncommonly blessed.

Faith Confession for Grace and Power:
Thank you Lord for another day. I shall be glad and rejoice. Thank you for salvation, divine health, grace and glory, provision, protection, and supernatural enablement. And I declare boldly that I am aglow and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom of God; and the grace of God is upon me (Luke 2:40). The Holy Spirit is my Senior Teacher and Partnership.
It is written, “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in the demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (1 Corinthians 2:4). Behold, I receive the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me (Luke 10:19). I operate with the great Power of God for His great works – Healings, miracles and signs and wonders. The word of God is in my mouth and as I meditate, it permeates to the deep part of my Spirit, soul, and body. I am manifesting the great power of God.
I rule over Satan and his cohort of darkness. I prosper in my spirit, soul, and body. My life is flourishing in all areas of life as well as my health even as my soul prospers. Success, wealth, abundance and victory are mine in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Further Reading scriptures to meditate:
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8).
