How do you get into the experience of grace? First, you must acknowledge that the grace of God has come to us through Jesus' substitutionary work at Calvary. We are in the dispensation of the grace of God; We are in the New Testament. What is grace? Grace is God's mercy, love and help given to us because of what Jesus Christ did for us at Calvary when He took our place, as our substitute. To live in and by God's grace, we must live from Christ's finished works. We must live with our reference point being Christ and all He has done for us. We live from who we are in Him, and who He is in us; we live from the mercy that He has procured for us; we live from and by the power of His Spirit who lives in us. Grace can only be experienced with Jesus Christ alone being our reference point for life and living.

John 1:17

”For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.”

Second, we must learn to fellowship with God's grace vitally. The key word here is fellowship. For example, when it comes to the grace of God for material prosperity, we must understand the place of giving or benevolence in fellowship with grace. Someone may say, since we are in the dispensation of grace, do you have to give before you can receive? The answer is an emphatic ”Yes!” God's grace abounds towards us as we demonstrate our faith in the Word of God. In ' receiving the grace of God, it will always be unto us according to ourfaith.

Ephesians 2:8-9 tells us that salvation came to us by grace through faith, which means that faith is the medium of receiving God's grace. The grace of God answers to faith, which is an expression of confidence in the Word of God in doing what the Word says to do. How did Abraham enter into the grace of God that he found? By faith! What is faith? Hearing and doing the Word, which means that he had to do something in obedience or response to the Word of God spoken to him. Abraham didn't become blessed just because God wanted him to be blessed; it was because he obeyed God in faith (Genesis 22:1 5-18). This is known as fellowship with grace.

God's grace is extended to all who wants to come close to him. We are happy for such a provision!

As Christians, we talk a lot about grace, but do we really understand it? Grace is God’s unmerited favour - an undeserved favour. It involves God’s mercy and it results in peace, the shalom of God. This is quite an insightful writeup from you.

What a deeper sense of words into the conclusion "Ephesians 2:8-9 tells us that salvation came to us by grace through faith, which means that faith is the medium of receiving God's grace. The grace of God answers to faith, which is an expression of confidence in the Word of God in doing what the Word says to do. How did Abraham enter into the grace of God that he found? By faith!

We have Grace through our Lord Jesus Christ

The grace of God is all we need and he gives to us freely. But we cannot continue in sin and expect Grace to keep abiding. God forbid says the scripture.

to let the flood of God’s prodigal grace wash over you afresh and like never before. As much as your instincts may be saying that next step is yours, what decision you make, what change you can effect, it may be that what you need most is to stand back, look outside yourself, and see the salvation of the Lord which he has worked for you (Exodus 14:13)

You can never get grace from God if you don't believe in him, so develope your trust in God and walk in the way if Christ.

Grace is the blessing that Allah bestows on his obedient servant.

He had madeys through his mercifully heart and he never demands any thing from us apart from our live and worship to his name and his glorious activities in our lives.
Serve him in truth and in spirit and keep his word intact never lie to him because he knows everything and all you feel he doesn't see .
Obedience is very important in our live if we really need to gain from God but first of al we need to appreciate him always .
The victorious are always free to do all the things through christ who made everything.

You never mind what people who don't. Want you are saying at you back put your heart and trust in him and believe you can do it all

Grace saves from sins....

Grace is God loves for us and his unmerited and undeserved that's why it's grace,it came as a result of what Christ has done and not based on our works,John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. John 1:17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Acts 4:33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

if you can fight your way clear in understanding and applying God's grace , you will experience a close relationship with God and consistent victory over sin.

To live in and by God's grace, we must live from Christ's finished works. We must live with our reference point being Christ and all He has done for us. We live from who we are in Him, and who He is in us; we live from the mercy that He has procured for us; we live from and by the power of His Spirit who lives in us..

Salvation is possible when we have faith and when the faith becomes stronger, his grace starts to follow us. Thanks for blessing us.
