Are you frustrated

Are you frustrated
SonLight Daily Devotional Daily Devotional for December 16

Galatians 2:21a "I do not frustrate the grace of God"

Paul is saying, I am dead to self, and my only purpose here on earth is to serve our risen Saviour day and night in the grace of God.

How do we keep from frustrating the grace of God?

1. Being filled with the Spirit moment by moment.
    Ephesians 5:18 "And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit"

2. Walk in the Spirit and you shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
    Galatians 5:16 "This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh."

3. Meditate on the word of God day and night
    Psalm 1:2 "But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night."

4. Study the word of God for yourself day and night
    2 Timothy 2:15 "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."

5. Walk in the light as He is in the light, and we will have fellowship one with another.
    1 John 1:7 "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin."

6. Live the life of 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 day and night.
    1 Corinthians 13:1-13

7. Walk in the finished work and grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
    2 Peter 3:18 "But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen."

Please read these scriptures seven times, then over and over again. Read them. Meditate on them, for none of us wants to frustrate the grace of God, do we?

Make the right choice and study the word of God daily, for it is truly our spiritual bread of life.

Trust in God, for He will show you His grace which passes all of our own understanding and opinions.

Grace is rich in His love. Grace is rich in His mercy. Grace is rich in His forgiveness.
