“And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace” (John 1:16, NKJV). Here’s the point so many miss: With grace we can receive the fullness of God’s nature! Grace is the gift that not only saved us but also imparts to us the completeness of Jesus. We are in Christ, He is in us, and we have the fullness of His nature. Without this insight, we cut ourselves off from the flow of grace. Most believe God’s grace has forgiven their sin and saved them from hell, but there is so much more! We have been given a new nature, and we are empowered to walk as Jesus (see 1 John 2:6) with authority to bring heaven’s will to earth.
My life changed dramatically once I discovered that grace not only includes God’s amazing forgiveness and promise of heaven, but also His empowerment in this life. Before this, I struggled trying to be good in my own strength. I found many of God’s instructions too difficult to fulfill, I battled inferiority and poor self-image as I wondered why there was so little eternal fruit in my life. However, once the realization came that I possessed the fullness of God’s nature, my life stabilized, blessings flowed and my impact for the kingdom greatly increased.
