Joyce Meyer Devotional 9th February 2025, Sunday Message
TOPIC: Embracing the Grace of God
For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. – John 1:17 (NIV)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
We cannot earn God’s approval. So then how can we get it? Receiving God’s grace that is provided in Jesus is the answer to this problem. We must know that it is not anything we do, but God’s amazing grace that invites us into a loving relationship with Him.
Grace is a gift that can’t be purchased with our performance or anything else—it can only be received by faith.
Grace is God’s undeserved favor! It is His love, mercy, and forgiveness available at no cost to us. Grace is also the power to change us and make us into what He wants us to be. There is no limit to God’s grace, and it is available to restore and lift us up anytime we fail.
You can be free today from the anger and anxiety caused by perfectionism by giving up your own works and trusting in the work that Jesus has done for us all. Remember, God simply requires you to believe in the One Whom He has sent (John 6:28–29).
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Lord, thank You for Your amazing grace. Please help me to embrace it completely as I trust Jesus’ work, not my own, to restore and transform me.
