Dear bretheren and visitors,
I would like to share with you my reflections on the sufficiency of God's grace for faith.
(2 Corinthians 12:9)(KJV),"And he said My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
Grace in general is the still small voice that awakens our knowledge of God as our Creator and that our inheritance is in Him. The conscience becomes aware of this fact. Grace also inspires us to seek God with what He has provided for our faith; which is why many who are convicted of sin end up looking for a church to go to. But is your current church a healthy Christian environment? Would God direct you into a covenant church home or into an institutionalised denominational church?
There are currently just over 7 billion people in the world and God desires none to perish (John 3:15). He has a perfect plan to raise us up as His own for His own purpose which is to be glorified through Christ Jesus. So God issues His grace daily to everyone so that we can build His kingdom in the second covenant priesthood and take on His divine nature.
Why is grace sufficient?
In the apostle's doctrine we learn the key definition, operation and purpose of grace. We learn (amongst others) two operations of God's grace which are that grace draws faith from the heart and that grace strengthens the will to serve God according to His standard and expectations. With faith we can do all things in Christ (Philippians 4:13) which has to do with the terms of the second covenant. Obedience to grace is faith. Believing and a willingness to reflect on the doctrine and a willingness to yield to the work of the Spirit in the soul is faith. The communication of grace is sufficient to draw the response of faith so that we can overcome spiritual death and take on the divine nature of Christ by bearing the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). The value of the fruits of the Spirit is realized increasingly as we experience the quality they bring in our lives.
For your edification and growth: "When the power of God's grace is upon the will we can walk out our cycles of growth enduring any circumstance."
Yours in Christ,

“HIS GRACE IS COMPLETE THAT LACK NOTHING”
Amen! Very edifying Sister.
Thank you in stewarding grace wc edify me to reflect upon n would like to add n contrast it coz this is always misquoted by FRS coz they think grace is mistaken as answer to their carnal needs n believe they wer save.
We know Grace is Christ n the word sufficient is complete. All the 12 elements of grace must laid upon ur soul then Christ is complete if not then Christ is missing.
It reminded me that any product that has been created is design in this world has compatibility that make that product run n function n w/o compatibility it will not work or it may work but it will never last n may damage or destroy.
Likewise, our soul n spirit wer created from heaven n design that compatible to God only Wer made to function only to spiritual things n not physical or paper n ink. Although we born in this world as flesh but our function must be according from heaven.
You said:
"Grace in general is the still small voice that awakens our knowledge of God as our Creator and that our inheritance is in Him."
Amen! It’s power that impact the soul from sleeping as light to awaken.
Yes! We only compatible to God’s increase n not the world increase.
This is why Christ is sent as grace that we may be complete n compatible to God increase.
This is why “Grace is sufficient, complete that lack nothing.”
This is why our soul only react to grace n if not then man cannot do nothing. We know in FRS do is ritual (discovery), pursue n covet the world as waste of time that make the soul, empty, void n reprobate for the very simple what they used (earthly tools) is not compatible n sufficient coz it’s was from below.
The Spirit only inhabit, dwell or enter in the things of Christ.
Coz of ignorant n not common to man this is rejected that cause man of ever learning but never coming to the fullness of Christ.
Apostle Paul recognized this n wrote his experience why grace is sufficient. Nothing of Christ is missing n nothing of man is added.
This the problem in FRS:
of redefining grace as unmerited favour that make things worse.
Wer Christ is missing coz man added n change grace function, purpose, plan n will of God of misusing it for their carnal activity n this is why in end of the day they’re weeping of endless sinning.
They felt the power of grace (illumination) when truth is presence but when truth is withdraw they wer convicted by der sins, shame, guilt remain n left their soul naked n empty. GRACE IS SUFFICIENT coz it’s complete as strength n made us perfect in weakness as holy order knowledge.
Man should know that w/o understanding, then is always seeking but not living in grace n truth.
This is why salvation is knowledge like any product w/o understanding how the battery work n fully charged or properly laid will not function.
This why knowledge is laying the 12 elements of grace that must be properly n perfectly laid within as foundation of truth n w/o these then grace, truth n some elements are missing n cause the soul to malfunction, stumble n live in error.
“Blessed is the man whose only source is grace as life n in time of trouble, his strong, perfect n complete that made him compatible with God.”
Yours in Christ,
~Apostle Oscar
