GRACE FOR YOU TODAY

RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD: DON’T HELP GOD — SIMPLY TRUST GOD!
“And he believed in the LORD, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.”
Genesis 15:6
God gave Abraham a revelation of His righteousness in Genesis 15. But when the promise seemed delayed, Abraham and Sarah attempted to produce the promise through human intervention—and Ishmael was born.
Sometimes our greatest struggle is not believing that God is able to do, but believing that He alone can do it without our human intervention.
God does not need our help to perform His miracle. He wants us to recognize our helplessness and depend completely upon Him. And in our helplessness, the Holy Spirit, our Helper, shows up!
The Spirit of Glory, who is upon us, rises from within us when we recognize our helplessness and helps us become fully convinced of God’s ability.
Your helplessness is not a disadvantage when God is your source.
Never disqualify yourself when Jesus has already qualified you before the Father. His blood has justified you and declared you righteous (Romans 5:9). And because He offered Himself through the Eternal Spirit, His finished work has secured our righteousness forever.
You are forever righteous!
You are forever qualified!
You are forever blessed!
Therefore, don’t strive to produce what only God can provide.
Rest in His righteousness.
Receive His abundant grace.
Reign in His ability.
🙏 PRAYER
Daddy God, forgive me for the times that I have tried to accomplish by human strength, when You have promised to accomplish by Your grace alone. I surrender my striving, anxiety and self-dependence. I choose to trust Your ability rather than my ability.
Let the revelation of Your righteousness settle deeply in my heart. I receive Your abundant grace, and I rest in Your perfect kairos—Your appointed time.
I am fully convinced that You are able because of Your Blessed Holy Spirit! In Jesus’ name, Amen.
📣 PROCLAMATION
I don’t have to help God!
Jesus is my source, my strength and my sufficiency.
I am not sustained by my ability but by His grace.
I am forever righteous, forever qualified and forever blessed!
I am fully convinced that He is able!
I receive; I do not strive.
I rest in His righteousness.
I receive His abundant grace.
I reign in His ability.
I am shifted to be lifted!
PRAISE THE RISEN JESUS!
