21 REVELATIONS ABOUT THE AMAZING GRACE OF GOD
****************************************************************
1. SALVATION
The grace of God brings forgiveness for our sins. Man has no right to demand forgiveness from God. God can punish Man for all his sins. But in His grace He chose to provide a way of Salvation through the death of His Son on the cross. Therefore it is by the grace of God we receive pardon for our sins. When we humble ourselves and acknowledge our sins and repent the Lord is merciful to forgive our transgressions and iniquities .The fundamental blessing we receive through the grace of God is the salvation of our soul. Salvation is a free gift , an unmerited favour bestowed which none of us deserve.No one deserves the son of God to die for their sins.Therefore the blessing we receive through the grace of God is the salvation of our soul. The grace of God makes us righteous before God. Therefore we need to be strong in the grace of God and experience His mercy in our lives.

Ephesians 2:1-5
As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,
in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.
All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath.
But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.
Romans 3:23-24
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
2. SELECTION
The grace of God causes us to find favour in His eyes. By His grace the Lord has chosen us to be His people and to serve Him for His glory. It is not our accomplishment or effort that made God to choose us .It is His sovereign grace that He has bestowed upon us. The opportunities and the responsibilities that we have are given to us by God according to His grace and mercy.

Luke 1: 26-33
In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee,
to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.
The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.â€
Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.
He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,
and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.â€
Romans 9: 15-18
For he says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.â€
It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.
For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.â€
Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden.
Galatians 1:11-16
I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin.
I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it.
I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased
