THE GRACE OF GOD - PEFA FINANCE CHURCH

Introduction

The grace of God is one of the most powerful and foundational truths in the Christian life. It is through grace that we receive salvation, strength, and the ability to live according to God’s will.

Understanding the Grace of God

Nature and Qualities of Grace

God is Love
- God’s nature is love, and His grace flows from that love.
  (Lamentations 3:22–23)
- His mercies never fail.
- His grace is faithful and ever-present.

What is Grace?

Grace is undeserved favor.
It is not a reward for doing good—it is given freely.
It is a gift received from a higher power (God).

(Genesis 6:7–8; Exodus 33:12–17)

Grace is what inclines God to give freely to undeserving people.
It is the quality in God that produces blessings for sinners.
(Romans 5:15)
Because of grace, we receive:
- Healing
- Blessings
- Favor

You cannot work to earn grace—it is completely free.
(Romans 11:5–6)

Grace opens doors and brings opportunities beyond our understanding.
