THANK GOD HE IS THE GOD OF ALL GRACE. To each true child He gives much grace to help in time of need. We need grace daily to sustain us in troubles, to subdue our corruptions, to sanctify our tempers, and to preserve us in temptation. We need more grace to quicken our languid affections, to enlarge our service, to render us useful to others, to enable us to endure to the end, and to meet death with confidence and joy. Our God is the God of all grace. Jesus is full of grace; He giveth more grace. It is promised in the word: "He will give grace." He has invited us to come and receive it. "Come boldly to the throne of grace, that ye may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." His grace is sufficient for us; without grace we are dull, lifeless, and sure to fall. O let us look to Jesus for grace to strengthen us, sanctify us, and make us useful! Let us never attempt anything in our own strength, but let us receive from the Lord, that we may live to the Lord; and let us ascribe any good that we do to the grace of God. Grace is always free. It is free for us this morning and our God bids us to the throne of grace: there you will obtain mercy and find grace to help you this day.
For Meditation:
On me, my King, exert Thy power,
Make old things pass away;
Transform and draw my soul to Thee,
Still nearer every day.
