Day #5 – It’s All About That Grace
10 Days Of Prayer 2016
Day #5 — It’s All About That Grace!
Welcome to Day #5. Thanks for doing us in this prayer initiative. 2016 is year where the LIFE of God is pressing in. Harvest in every area of your life. God is restless and He is stirring His people for His name sake.
To embrace all God desires for you demands a clear revelation of His amazing GRACE!
David Edwards
“Mercy is not getting what you deserve. Grace is getting what you don’t deserve.”
Mercy paid the debt and grace has made me rich!
Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
“When you preach grace,unless your conscience accuses you of license you haven’t preached grace.”
The parallel Paul makes: Adam’s sin is passed on to us because we were in him, Christ’s righteousness is passed on to us because we are in him.
Two types of people: (1.) In Adam and (2.) In Christ … Where are you?
Romans 5:12-21 “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned — (For …so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.”
What is God going to do with all of these bad copies? How does He deal with all those born in Adam?
Here is Gods solution:
2 Corinthians 5:21 “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”
By grace through faith you have been born again. Remastered!
John 3:7 “Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’”
Romans 6:10-11 “For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 5:17
“For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.”
Romans 5:20
“Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,…”
Huperperisseuo: hyper — where we get the english word “hyper” and Perisseuo — where we get the english word “abound” Biblical grace is Hyper Abounding Grace!
Titus 2:11-12 (AMP)
“For the grace of God (His unmerited favor and blessing) has come forward (appeared) for the deliverance from sin and the eternal salvation for all mankind. It has trained us to reject and renounce all ungodliness (irreligion) and worldly (passionate) desires, to live discreet (temperate, self-controlled), upright, devout (spiritually whole) lives in this present world,”
Let me finish with a few insights on grace from Jeff Turner — Sound Of Awakening Ministries
Top 3 Signs That You’ve Fallen “Prey” To a “Hyper Grace” Message:
Here it goes…
Ready..?
Sign # 1 – You find yourself overwhelmingly in love with a God whom you formerly felt distant and separated from, and now find prayer and studying the scriptures to be a most enjoyable treat.
Sign # 2 – You now effortlessly love others and see them through the lens of the finished work of Christ. You were once unable to conjure up such feelings of compassion and love, but after having seen God’s love for you, they began to supernaturally burn in your heart towards others.
Sign # 3 – You find yourself wholly disinterested in the sinful lifestyle you once secretly carried on while in the clutches of man made religion. Godly living is no longer an exercise in exhaustion, but is as natural as the unconscious blinking of the eyelids. You now know a consistent inward victory, despite having good and bad days. You are confident in your salvation, and know that you are safe and sound in Daddy’s arms.
Well, there you have them folks . . . the top 3 signs that you’ve fallen “prey” to a “Hyper Grace” message. As you can see, this fast spreading doctrine is very dangerous, and is doing a lot of damage to the body of Christ. Beware! (Copious amounts of sarcasm intended)
PRAYER DIRECTIVES:
Pray for a rich revelation of GRACE to baptize the Body Of Christ.

On this fifth day of the New Year personally embrace the full measure of His grace for yourself. Don’t be surprised … it will result in a much more wonder filled day!!!
From the bottom of my heart Lord, I thank you for grace!! I ask that you would reveal grace to the Body of Christ as a whole and bring such freedom into the hearts and lives of each one of your children as we grow into more and more revelation of grace/you. Wash out of us any misrepresentations of yourself and your Word…reveal yourself powerfully to each and every believer, your children. I decree a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the deep and intimate knowledge of you. Teach us how to flow in grace! Help us to see one another as you see us. And Lord I call Frankie Lynn forth NOW in the name of Jesus…may her birth be quick, and uneventful. Empower Karly with such grace as she delivers that you will get much glory. In Jesus name!!
“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us the mystery of His will…” Eph. 1: 7-9b
Thank You Father for Your abounding grace poured out on us through Jesus Christ. Thank You for the purpose and good plan you have for each one of us. Thank You for the victorious Life we have in You as we live by the unforced rhythms of Your grace pushing us, drawing us , bringing us into the victorious and all conquering consciousness of Jesus and His victory. May we be awakened to feel and see your grace, to receive it intentionally, and to corporately jump into this flow from your throne. We trust your Wisdom, that your grace will teach us and that it will, by Your own wisdom and prudence, bring us into the full and complete expression of all your good intentions for us in Christ Jesus, making known your goodness in the Earth. Amen!
Grace, Grace God’s Grace so wonderful…….joining with you today!
Thank you Father for your abundant, over-reaching and eternal grace! Thank you for moving us from the rule of darkness into the kingdom of your dear Son!
1 Peter 2: (NIV) But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
We ask that you would daily renew our minds to the overflowing consequences of your Grace that redeems, sanctifies, promotes and empowers us to truly manifest the love and authority of Jesus in the earth. Truly we are no longer slaves but sons, no longer dead but alive, no longer condemned sinners but righteous saints! All to demonstrate your goodness and reveal your glory.
We agree today for the imminent, safe and easy delivery of Karly’s baby – that she will come forth to be welcomed, loved and cherished quickly! Bless our pastors, this body and all those surrounding us in the mighty name of Jesus! Amen!
My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love, amazing grace
Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) by Chris Tomlin
Father, it’s all because of Your unending love and Your amazing grace that we are set free to become who you are calling us to be in Christ Jesus. Thank you for Your mercy, Your everlasting love and Your unfathomable and amazing grace. It’s all because of you, Jesus, that we are free. Our hearts are bursting with gratitude and praise as we declare:
“Now God has us where he wants us, with all the time in this world and the next to shower grace and kindness upon us in Christ Jesus. Saving is all his idea and all his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It’s God’s gift from start to finish!” (Ephesians 2:8 MSG)
Love Ephesians 2:8 in the Message Michael. My salvation is, ” It’s God’s gift from start to finish!”
He is so good! Love His plan of salvation.
1Peter4:10
As everyone has received a gift, even so serve one another with it, as good stewards of the Manifold Grace of God.
Thank you Father for this manifold of grace you have given to each of us, may we continue to love others, serve others and speak words of truth that you may be glorified in all things. Amen!
Praying. Abounding grace!
Rise and shine, Frankie…your time has come.
Frankie, WE ARE READY FOR YOU!! Thank you Jesus for Karly/Johnnys baby girl that will be born very soon 🙂
We pray and agree today for the masses to get a massive revelation of Father’s love – saved by grace through faith – thank-you Jesus for Your perfect love for the Nations. We know and desire to be those who by demonstration of Your perfect love walk in peace and joy – ready at all times! Thank-you for the city of London coming to a true knowledge of what You already accomplished on the cross – thank-you for churches coming together by Your Spirit.
Ho! We pray for Karly to have this baby, Ps. Karl really wants her to come before he goes to Haiti.
Thank-you Lord for our brothers and sisters – thank-you they have eyes to see and eyes to hear of Your awesome grace – we speak and shout grace grace to any hindrance of Your truth manifesting in believers lives!! We agree for a great moral revolution fueled by love and grace to sweep across our Nation.
We choose to view others though the finished work of the cross – grace is the lens we look through – we cast down every thought that would attempt to exalt itself above the knowledge of your perfect love. Old mindsets of law and judgement we cast down now in Jesus name. Thank-you Lord for our lives being a living testimony of your patience and goodness ….You are good all the time – we choose life and speak life over all your creation.
Thank you Father for your great grace. We pray that a greater understanding and enlightenment will come about the Body of Christ and the people of Impact Church of the grace that has been given to us and the power of that grace. Let the perspectives of heaven flood your people and may they walk in all that they have been created for. We pray for people of all walks of life would see who You really are and be drawn to You. Let every misrepresentation of You be uprooted and removed out of people’s minds so that they can see clearly how good You are. Thank you Lord for Frankie and her arriving here right on time. Thank you for the grace for Karly to deliver her. Thank you for giving your people the ability to see each other as You see them with eyes of mercy and not judgement.
I am praying. I’m thanking Him for the fresh view on grace that I have received and believing for many opportunities to share that with others. I declaring the grace message be permeated inside and outside of the Church. I am thanking Him for the ever increasing grace lens. I am believing that Frankie’s birthday will be January 6!
