The Light Daily Devotional – Grace: God in our Race

Focus: Grace: God in our race

The word for today

Grace is God’s presence guiding, empowering, and comforting us. It brings peace and joy during trials, making life meaningful as we fulfil His purposes!

Scriptural Reference

“But 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 NKJV)

Grace is an essential component of the Christian faith, providing the strength and guidance necessary to navigate life’s challenges. It is the unmerited favor of God that empowers us to fulfil our purpose and achieve our goals. Without grace, we would stumble and fall at every hurdle, unable to progress in our journey.

But with grace, we can run with endurance the race set before us, knowing that God is with us every step of the way. It is the grace of God that sustains us in times of trial and gives us hope for the future. When we feel weak, grace gives us strength. When we feel lost, grace gives us direction. When we make mistakes, grace gives us forgiveness. It is the reason why we can rise after every fall and keep pressing forward toward our goals. 

In essence, grace is the divine enablement that we need to run the race of life with excellence and to finish strong. It is the reason why we can confidently declare, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). Therefore, let us run our race with the grace of God, knowing that He is with us every step of the way!

Meditation: What can you do without the grace of God?

Prayer: Dear Lord, make grace available for us in our destiny walk in Jesus’ name. Amen!

Emphasis: Grace is what we need in our race. Grace is the reason why we can never be weary in our race. Grace is simply God in our race!

Have a Glorious Thursday!
