Grace is a Spiritual Virtue with an endless possibilities and benefits. One day of grace from God is worth more than a lifetime of labour. Christianity is a lifestyle of Grace. It is the grace of God demonstrated through the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ that distinguishes Christianity from other religions of the World. Grace is a powerful Spiritual force. When your life is void of Grace, it will be full of disgrace. Whatever you are today, whatever you have today and whatever you can become or achieve in the future is at the mercy of the grace of God. Do you want to know the benefits of Grace? Do you want to understand what the grace of God is capable of doing? If your answer is in the affirmative, this post is written for you. Let's get started.


What is Grace?

Many Preachers and several authors have tried to define grace. Some said that grace is the unmerited favour of God. In my opinion, grace is God at work in a human vessel, God at work in a situation, God at work in a place and God at work in a thing. It is God doing what man cannot do. Grace is divine ability working in a human inability. Grace is divinity working through humanity to make impossibility become a possibility. Grace is a mystery that makes a sinner to become a Saint. Grace is the help of God. When you don't know how it happened, when you can't explain it, when it is not about you or any other human, it is called grace. When it is all about God it is grace. Grace is divine election at the edge of human rejection. It is God's approval or recommendation at the gate of human opposition. Grace is God's unmerited favour that brings about everything good. Grace is God's supernatural energy at work in a human vessel that makes him a sign and wonder on the earth. All men are born equal, the only thing that differentiates them is grace. 


Benefits of Grace

1. Grace brings Salvation- Titus 2:11, Ephesians 2:8

One of the benefits of Grace is that it brings Salvation. We are saved by grace, not by works. The good works of man cannot purchase the Salvation of his soul. No matter how good we are morally, intellectually and socially, we cannot redeem our own souls by our works of self-righteousness. We are saved by the grace of God through faith in the finished works of Christ. The birth, works, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ were necessitated by the grace of God. God's grace was what opened the door of redemption for mankind. Without the grace of God, no man can be saved.


2. We are Justified by Grace- Rom 3:24, Titus 3:7


Grace is amazing. It is such a wonderful thing. One of the benefits of Grace is justification. We are Justified by Grace. To be justified means to be officially declared innocent, blameless, not guilty, discharged and acquitted. That's one the bible says, there's therefore now no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus. Grace makes us innocent and blameless in the sight of God. By God when God looks at us, He doesn't see any fault or blame in us. 


3. We reign in life through Grace- Rom 5:17

The believer reigns on earth by the grace of God. A life of impact and relevance on the earth is made possible through the grace of God. Human efforts and money, no matter how good they are cannot buy heavenly promotion or divine announcement. It is the grace of God that enables us to reign in this life. Every child of God is redeemed to reign and rule on the earth, but it takes grace to command influence and relevance in your environment. Talent is impotent without the grace of God. Human ambition is nothing without grace. It is grace that enables the unknown to be known. Grace gives recognition and value to life on the earth. 

4.  Grace Makes Great- 1 Cor 15:10

One of the benefits of grace is that it makes great. There is absolutely nothing we can become on the earth by our own strength alone. All our human effort and abilities put together without the grace of God will amount to frustration. It is the grace of God that enables us to succeed and excel in our assignment and business on the earth. Whatever we are today is by the grace of God. It is the grace of God that generates result. Grace is the maker of the Saints, not location or association. There are people who are highly connected but not celebrated. There are many people who have the best education from the best schools in the world but they are not occupying the best positions on the earth. What determines who you will become on the earth is not your human strength or physical muscle but the grace of God. It was the grace of God that turned a prisoner like Joseph into a Prime Minister in Egypt. It was the grace of God that located David in the bush where he was following his father's sheep and made him the King of Israel. What grace cannot do doesn't exist. 


5. Grace guarantees family Peace- 2 Peter 1:2

Relationship and marriage life become successful and peaceful through the grace of God. No two individuals can actually live together in one room in peace without the grace of God. It takes grace to become a good husband to your wife. It takes grace to become a Virtuous wife to your husband. It takes grace to build a happy family. Thank God for your money but money alone cannot make marriage work. There's a grace that keeps families together through thick and thin. When you hear that these couple have been married for fifty years, it takes grace to achieve that. Not by might nor by power but by the grace of God. One of the benefits of grace is that it guarantees family peace and enables us to live together with each other in harmony. Without the grace of God, there will be war everywhere, every day. Violence and war are absent where the grace of God is present. When you enter a place saturated with the grace of God, the first thing you will see there is peace. Communities and nations who desire peace and tranquility should pray for the grace of God upon their land and people. When grace comes, peace is enthroned.

6. Grace is a defender of the Righteous- 2 Cor 12:9

One of the benefits of Grace is that it defends and Protects the righteous from all evil. The most dangerous man to fight is a man of grace. When the grace of God is upon a man, that grace will protect and defend him from every attack of the enemy. The grace of God is sufficient for every trouble. It doesn't matter how terrible the situation may be, there's a grace that enables us to pull through. There's a grace that keeps the believer in the midst of storms without falling. Grace is the defender, the cover, the protector of the righteous. Go for grace. It doesn't matter what the enemy throws at you, the grace of God is sufficient for you.


7. Grace is the Finisher's Strength- Zach 4:6-7

No divine project can be accomplished without grace. Grace is the Finisher's strength. Grace enables us to finish our course with joy. Without the grace of God, we cannot run the Christian race and finish it. It is grace that enables us to continue when all hell is broken loose at our face. We run and don't give up because of the grace of God. We keep pushing and pressing forward towards the mark of the high calling of God upon our lives because of the grace of God. Sometimes we are persecuted and cast down but we keep going because of the grace of God. 


8. Grace guarantees spiritual growth- 2 Peter 3:18


One of the benefits of grace is that it empowers the believer to grow spiritually. It is the grace of God that enables us to grow in the knowledge of God. It is by grace that we are transformed from glory to glory. It takes the grace of God to engage the word of God. It is grace that enables the believer to participate effectively in kingdom service. One of the assignments of grace is that it compels us to love God and hate evil. The grace of God draws us closer to God day by day. Without grace, no one can say Jesus is Lord. 


9. Grace gives us access to divine Revelation- Ephesians 3:8-10

One of the benefits of grace is access to divine Revelation and mysteries hidden for ages. There's a grace in God that makes it possible for a mortal to access the manifold wisdom and knowledge of the immortal God. Like Apostle Paul, I can say with every sense of humility, that I am also a pertaker of this grace. This grace helps you to understand the scriptures in a way that is not known to another man. It helps you to see beyond the letters. This grace makes you a custodian of ancient secrets that are only available in God. It is grace that gives us access to the hidden secrets of the kingdom of God.


10. Grace makes you a Giver- 2 Cor 8:7

There's something called the giving grace. One of the benefits of grace is that it makes you a giver. Man is naturally stingy. It takes the grace of God to give. Anyone who loves giving has this grace working in their lives. It's grace that enables people to want to give or support other people. It is grace that empowers the believer to give to support and promote God's work on the earth. The giving grace is so important in the body of Christ. It's not enough to have the grace of revelation, utterance and faith, we all need to have this giving grace to be able to contribute to the growth and expansion of God's kingdom on the earth and as well support those who are in need.


Final Thought


The beginning of grace is redemption. Until one is saved, his journey of grace has not begun. If you have not done so, give your heart to Jesus Christ and be born again. You need to become a child of God in order to enjoy the grace of God. Receive Christ today as your Lord and personal Savior and it will be well with you.
