Corinthians 12:7-10
“My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities …
2 Corinthians 12:9

The year 2020 is the year of grace. The Lord will release unto us fresh grace that would help us live the Christian life. God’s exceeding grace will be ours as we ask for it. And as many that would receive it and walk in it would see the difference that grace makes in their lives walk with God, ministry, career, callings, homes, etc.

Paul thought he had been edged into a corner by the thorn in his flesh when God refused to take it away. He thought
all hope was gone. Then God spoke, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). The rest is history.

Paul went on to do great things. He went ahead to testify to the power of God and the work of His grace in his life. That is why he could say, “By the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me” (1 Corinthians 15:10).

This same grace is available to us because they are new every morning (see Lamentation 3:23). God does not hoard anything. Let us reach out for it and make grace work for us. Shalom.
