Boast In God’s Grace For You
1 Corinthians 1:31… “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.”
If someone asks you, “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” you would probably tell him, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved,” wouldn’t you?
Well, a rich, young ruler asked Jesus the same question, but instead of telling him to believe in Him, Jesus gave him the law. (Mark 10:17–22)
Jesus saw that the young ruler lived his life taking pride in his ability to keep the law to earn salvation and the favor of God. But because of His love for the man, Jesus had to show him that those who live by the law must realize that their self-efforts cannot save them.
He therefore reminded him, “You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery…‘Do not steal… ‘Honor your father and your mother.’” The young ruler showed that his trust was in his law-keeping when he replied, “Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth.”
So Jesus had to tell him, “One thing you lack… sell whatever you have and give to the poor…and come…and follow Me.” When the young ruler heard that, he walked away sorrowful.
When we boast of having kept the law, it will always point out something we lack or have failed to obey. The law is so holy and perfect that if we don’t keep even one iota of it, it has no choice but to judge and curse us. (Galatians 3:10) That is what the law was designed to do.
God does not want us to boast in our abilities to keep the law. If we are to have confidence in anything at all, if we are to boast in anything at all, it is in the grace of God. Only His grace can completely keep, save, heal, deliver and bless us.
So let’s not boast in what we have done or are able to do, but boast in His grace for us — that He is our strength, health, favor, provision, wisdom, hope, salvation and glory. That is how we will see ourselves enjoying our inheritance of abundant life!
Confession:
Only His grace, not my works, can save, keep, heal, deliver and bless me. Hallelujah

Thank you so much Pastor for this wonderful devotion and an open eye teaching.This is an entirely whole different angle to see this story.More anointing and strenght Sir 🙏
Only His grace, not my works, can save, keep, heal, deliver and bless me. Hallelujah
If I was to be judged by my works alone, I would continuously miss the mark for righteousness! I have been made righteous purely by the blood of Jesus & by the finished works of Christ. I can only boldly enter the holiest place by the blood of Jesus – not by my own blood, sweat and tears!
Naturally as humans we have a tendency to believe the harder we work, the more we get rewarded. Even as children – if we abide by our parents rules, we get rewarded. Even though this is good to do, it is important for us to know that righteousness can only be obtained through Christ’s finished works, through Christ’s blood – not our own. We must practice daily surrendering all to Him and practice being solely led by Him so that we will see the fullness of His grace at work in us & there will be no way we can take the glory for what we couldn’t do without Him ✝️❤️.
Thank you so much Pastor for this devotional!!
Only his grace not my works, can save keep he’ll deliver and bless me hallelujah. I have been saved through gods grace and the finished work of Jesus Christ. Thank you Lord
Hallelujah hallelujah Glory be to God yes indeed if we are to boast in anything at all, it is in the grace of God. Only His grace can completely keep, save, heal, deliver and bless us. The Lord JESUS said that His grace is sufficient for us in everything we might be going through, all we need is His grace that is priceless compare to any other material things we may have achieved, got or possess. After all He even gave us the strength, power to get them so why not boast in in the grace of God who sum up to all this . Seek for the creator not His creation ,or seek for the life giver not the life . The Lord will help us all
Shalom shalom shalom ! Thank you so much pastor more grace to you sir . Powerful one !
Only His grace, not my works, can save, keep, heal, deliver and bless me. Hallelujah
1 Corinthians 1v31
Therefore, as it is written, ‘Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.'”
We need to forget our possessions, our title and our pride and come to God as we are and he will make us whole.
We need to know our identity in Christ.
God bless you Pastor more grace Sir 🙏 🙌

1 Corinthians 15:10…But by the grace of God I am what I am.
2 Timothy 1:9…called not by our works but according to His Grace
2 Corinthians 12:9…my grace is sufficient for thee…
Whatever we become in life is not by our making, it is purely by the grace of God. Whatever we set to do and achieve in life is not because we know how to do it but because of God’s grace at work in our lives. It is the sufficiency of His grace that makes us overcomers over all situations.
Thank you Sir for this powerful devotion.
The Lord bless you more abundantly in the name of Jesus. Amen
