Praying Scripture— Grace

Scripture

“For out of His fullness [the superabundance of His grace and truth] we have all received grace upon grace [spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing, favor upon favor, and gift heaped upon gift].”

John 1:16— NIV

And

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”

Ephesians 2:8–9— NIV

And

“for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.”

Romans 3:23-24— NIV

Pray

Sometimes, it’s hard to extend grace to people who have hurt me. When I’m clinging to anger and resentment, remind me again of how much You love this person. Put someone in my path that I can show grace to today. Help me not to be so focused on my to-do list that I miss them. Thank You for the grace You extend to me. I don’t deserve it, but I’m oh so grateful. Wrap me in Your arms of mercy today.

In Jesus’ Name,

Amen
