Grace is the divine influence on the heart of a man and it is reflected or expressed outwardly. In other words, it is the out-working of a divine inward influence in your heart through God’s Word and the Holy Spirit. Grace is the glory of God working in a man’s spirit.

1. 7 Outworking Of Grace
INTRODUCTION
2 Peter 3:18”But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be
glory both now and forever”. Amen.
WHAT IS GRACE?
Grace is the divine influence on the heart of a man and it is reflected or expressed outwardly. In other
words, it is the out-working of a divine inward influence in your heart through God’s Word and the Holy
Spirit. Grace is the glory of God working in a man’s spirit. The Greek word for grace is ‘Charis’. It
beautifies the spirit and would always show on the outside. Grace functions at different levels in our life.
It locates you and brings you into the good place at the right and opportune time. Some people do
define Grace as “unmerited favor” but this definition is from a negative point of view and is somewhat
limited.
There is such a thing as to increase in grace, to grow (Auxano). As Christians, the Bible admonishes us to
grow in grace even as we grow in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Chris Oyakhilome. Don’t work against
Grace in other people; acknowledge, respect and help grow it when you find it manifesting in others
around you.

2. SEVEN (7) OUTWORKINGS OF GRACE
The Grace of God can be seen in what it produces; as much as Grace is a divine working on the inside of
a man, it manifests itself on the outside of a man in diverse ways:
1. ACCEPTABILITY.
There always is something about a man/woman with Grace that attracts people to him/her. Grace
singles you out; they just don’t know why they are attracted towards you. Grace has got nothing to do
with one’s status, profession or gender. You can turn on grace in your life; God gives you more Grace as
you put to use the Grace He already made available to you. Grace causes nature to respond to you and
there are levels of Grace at which different Christians function. It should be your desire to function at
the highest level of Grace possible.
2. THE ADVANTAGE.
Grace brings and gives you the Advantage. As a Christian, you need to ALWAYS be conscious of the
Grace of God upon your life, this is what makes it work and you need to recognize that you have got
grace working for you. You do not need to struggle for/with anything in your life, if you put the Grace to
work, it will deliver them to you, on a platter. Hallelujah! Grace is the glory of God working in a man’s
spirit and it beautifies. Only the man with Grace recognizes Grace. Never try to work against Grace in a
man’s life; one who does it, fights against the Source of Grace; Deity.
3. FAVOUR.
Grace brings you FAVOUR. Good is turned towards the man with Grace and forgiveness always knocks at
his door. Even when he seems to have made great mistakes, the Grace of God speaks for him. To walk in
Grace means to walk in and with divine influence. It makes you have the mentality of “if I want anything,
I will get it!” You are God’s trophy, and He wants everyone in the world to know how much he loves you.
He is the ‘I am’ and you are the ‘in Him’. There is no need for the struggles and the worry wrinkles.
Grace is available to deliver favour to you. Favour that comes by Grace comes by divine influence.
Hallelujah! All He says is “yield to my Word”.
4. JOY.
Grace brings about Joy; joy indescribable and unspeakable. As a Christian walking in grace, let Joy work
out through your life. When you take advantage of grace, the world will not be able to explain how you
are always up there. Where they let worries and the cares of this life control them, they do not
understand how you have become a distributor of joy. With grace in your life, you become dauntless
even in seemingly difficult situations. When challenges come to you look inwards for the solution,
because you know that: THE BIGGER THE PROBLEM, THE BIGGER THE TESTIMONY.

3. 5. LIBERALITY.
Grace brings LIBERALITY into your life. You have got to recognize that Grace opens a two-way channel; it
is called giving and a receiving channel. Recognize that giving is a Grace. When Grace opens up that
passion to give; it also opens up your CAPACITY to receive.
6. PLEASURE.
Grace brings about PLEASURE. Do you know that Pleasure comes spiritually and that you can take
pleasure in all that God has created? Your life is for Him; recognizing this makes everything in your life
pleasurable and yet pleasing to God. Now, Grace brings about a kind and happy pleasure that should
make you appreciate the people and the things in your life.
7. GIFT.
Grace brings GIFTs into your life. Grace brings about an uncanny ability to do what others cannot do.
This can manifest itself by form of a skill, quality and understanding of certain areas. It’s important that
you recognize the gift of God upon you and put it to use, it makes God’s power to come upon it.
YOU’RE ROLE WITH GRACE
The Scripture is laden with accounts explaining how God has given us the measure of Grace. Much
more, we have a huge role to play in making sure that the purpose for the Grace is accomplished.
God expects us to put his Grace to work by careful study and meditation of His Word, which is the Word
of Grace.
Make up your mind to put to work the GRACE upon your life. The Bible says in Romans 5:17 ’’For if by
one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the
gift of righteousness shall rein in life by one, Jesus Christ’’. You can decide to put to test the grace upon
your life and you can be sure that your testimonies will be those of unprecedented manifestations of the
Holy Ghost.
