A reflection that invites you to discover the power of prayer that flows from Grace.
“Through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God.”
— Romans 5:2 (NASB)Have you ever listened to yourself when you pray? Do you believe that God truly hears your prayers? Those were the same questions I once asked myself.
When I studied Romans 5:2, I understood that we have free access to the throne of Grace—and that revelation changed the way I pray.
What is your prayer about today? Have you visualized the Father as you pray? If at this very moment your eyes were opened and you could see that great white and glorious throne, what would you say to the Lord Jesus Christ?
Maybe you would open your heart and whisper to the Father, ‘I love You. Do with me as You will.’
That is a prayer of surrender—a prayer that recognizes that the Grace of God can transform every area of your life.
Take a moment to meditate: God can give you far more than your heart desires, but above all, He longs to enjoy your presence. Remember, you are His child, and His Grace gives you the identity of a prince.
So, come freely before Him and enjoy your royal position. Rise up and walk, because those who think like princes will daily sit in the seat that bears their name.
Today is your day. Cry out to the King of kings and Lord of lords, as a son ready to behold the glory of his Father.
Grace gives you the identity of a child.
