Romans 5:1-2 (NKJV), Ephesians 2:8 (NIV)
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. *For it is by
grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.

It is not the act of recharging your phone's credit that produces the telecom network. Nor is it the act of recharging your prepaid electric power meter that provides electric power. The recharging of your phone's credit simply grants your phone access to the network that the telecom's company has provided in the same way the recharging of your electric power meter grants you access to the electricity that has been provided by the electric power company. This means that if you refuse to recharge your device, you intentionally cut yourself off from the abundant network or power that is available for you to enjoy. In the same way, your faith grants you access to the things that God has already done and made available for you in Christ by His grace. Just like with your salvation, your faith is what grants you access and the hope of experiencing God's power and glory in every area of your life.So the question is, 'are you believing what God is saying about you in Christ, or are you intentionally blocking and cutting yourself off from the immeasurable blessings, power and grace that God has already made available to you in Christ?' If you believe, you will experience the glory of God, John 11:40. Possessing the units only grants you potential access. You must load the units into the device to experience actual access. This is why faith without works is dead, James 2:17-20. As you continually act in line with your faith, you will enter into the full experience of the grace, power and blessings that God has provided for you in Christ, James 1:22-25.
PRAYER FOCUS: Thank God for the abundant power, grace and glory that He has already provided you in Christ. Declare in faith that you believe God and that you will experience His glory in your life.
