5 WAYS TO MAXIMIZING THE GRACE OF GOD

Maximizing Grace of God is an important aspect of the believers walk with God.

In my previous article, Frustrating the Grace of God, I explained what Grace meant and how you can frustrate the Grace of God.

If Grace can be frustrated, then it can also be maximized. For everything we became in Christ, we didn’t get there by our works, it was by Grace. 

Also, for everything we are becoming in Christ, it is powered by the Grace of God. 

MAXIMIZING THE GRACE OF GOD EXPLAINED

Ephesians 4.7 But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it. (NIV)

How do I maximize God’s Grace?

This is a very important question to ask yourself. Below are some of the ways you can maximize God’s Grace. 

1. Labour

Labour is one of the ways we maximize Grace. 

1 Corinthians  15:10  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” 

The Grace God gave you is not for you to become lazy or to sit down  doing nothing. 

Evidently, it is a call to responsibility. 

God has given each and everyone Grace to carry out every assignment He has given to you. 

To maximize grace, you need to put in the work. 

Furthermore, His Grace is present but you need to put in the work. 

Consequently, the work you put in is as a response to Grace. 

2. Faithfulness

Luke  16:10  “He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much”

Whatever thing God has bestowed Grace unto you to do, be faithful to it.

The true test of stewardship is in continuity and in faithfulness.

For instance, It might be service in church, or workplace, be faithful to the end.

3. Stewardship

1Cor.4.2 – Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

Faithfulness is a requirement in stewardship and it helps you to maximize Grace.

Moreover, everything God gives to you is not yours, He entrusts it to you and you’ll give account of it.

Also, another key characteristic of a stewardship is Accountability. 

That’s why God expects you to be accountable with the things He entrusted into your care.

And Grace is one of the realities God has give us. Are you maximizing it or are you wasteful?

God doesn’t do things without a purpose or end in view. 

Finally, if He wants you to maximise Grace then maximise, because God the investor must get a return.

4. Diligence and Consistency 

Another note worthy thing about how to maximise Grace is that you have all it takes to do whatever God wants you to do.

Furthermore, you have to understand that it takes diligence and Consistency to maximize Grace. 

Sometimes we start off full of energy and vigor but along the line we gas out.

This shows that as much as starting is good, continuing and finishing tops it all.

Additionally, It is not enough to be diligent, be consistent too because it makes for more supply of Grace. 

5. Obedience 

Obedience will always be one of the lasting ways we maximize Grace. 

Moreover, for every instruction God gives you, there is a commensurate Grace that to obey that instruction. 

However, the more you obey and yield to God, the more you keep growing in Grace. 

For instance, if God gives you an instruction to fast, there’s Grace available to carry out that fast.

And if you yield yourself in obedience to the instruction Grace will be fully maximed of you.

Lastly, obedience is potent when it is prompt. Learn to respond in prompt obedience to God’s instruction. 

That’s the kingdom pattern to fully maximise Grace and reap its benefits.

CONCLUSION

“The one that progresses more is the one that utilizes the available Grace”-

Vera Udechukwu

That’s why bedience to God’s instruction is very vital, it shows that you have faith in God as it takes faith to obey.

Finally, remember that for you to fully maximise Grace you must up understand stewardship.

Be a labourer who is consistent, diligent, obedient and faithful, that’s how it’s done.

Also, never run away from responsibility. Put the Grace of God available to you to use. 

May God grant you sight on the areas you need to start maximizing the Grace of God in Jesus name.
