In Episode 15 of Bible Study with Mum, we explore the grace that accompanies the Word of God.
God does not give us instructions and then leave us to obeyin our own strength. When He gives a Word, He also makes grace available—His help, ability, and empowering presence—to enable us to walk in what He has said.
Using Philippians 2:13 and 2 Corinthians 13:14, we discoverthat the Word reveals God’s will, the Holy Spirit teaches and guides us, and grace gives us the ability and capacity to obey.
Whether God calls us to forgive, pray, fast, worship, trustHim, walk in holiness, or stand on one of His promises, the grace needed to obey accompanies the Word He has spoken.
