Here we see that we have been given everything we need to live a godly life, which is the life He designed for us. Our part is to come to know Him, and then to make every effort to respond to God’s promises. That’s another way of saying the just shall live by faith; believe you receive; or as Jesus put it, “Have faith in God” (Mark 11:22). 3. Have faith in God. Romans 4:16 tells us, “Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed.” There is a beautiful grace designed for us to walk in every moment, but it can only be received by faith in God’s promises. When we make a daily commitment to receive His promises by faith, the result is that we come to believe those things are ours! Yes, we must walk it out day by day. But the more we live this way, the more going back to our old fleshly way of doing things just seems crazy. The Greek word for flesh means “work.” Work versus grace—to me, it’s a clear choice! In Romans 11:6 we read: “And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.” So, I’ve made my case for the “Mommy Grace.” And happily, it is the same process for the “Daddy Grace,” “Ministry Grace” or “Anything-You-Are-Called-to-Be-or-Do Grace.” Read 1 Corinthians 15:10 once again: “But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.” This is who we are. The best mommies in the world, not empowered by our own goodness but by the grace of God that lives BIG within us, reaching out to our children to draw them to Him. With a smile on my face and a laugh in my soul at the good things our Lord has in store for you, I will throw this one in too. First Samuel 1:18 says, “And she said, Let thine handmaid find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.” Mother, enjoy your world today. It is a gift from the One who loves you. V Kellie Copeland is responsible for Covenant Partner Relations at Kenneth Copeland Ministries and is the developer of the Superkid Academy curriculum.
