THE GRACE THAT IS TO COME

The Grace That Is To Come (Part 1) - By Daniel Yordy

". . . Rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ." 1 Peter 1:13

I am convinced that there is a door into this grace that Peter claims is a grace that is coming, a grace that we have never known. But God through Peter places before us a grace we have never known. And God commands us to set our hope fully upon the coming of that grace.

So the grace that is to come, that the Spirit of God through Peter commands us to fix our hope upon, this grace that comes with the revelation of Jesus Christ, a divine enablement, to be the full revelation of God in the earth, this grace always is and always is coming.

What is this grace that is to come? This grace that no believer in Christ has ever tasted?
Grace is the central dynamic of the revelation of God. Grace is the ability to be the dwelling place of Almighty God. Grace is the capacity to contain all the fullness of God; grace is the ability to release Him in a river of life that heals all things; grace is the power to bring all things into submission under His feet.

Grace is, first, divine enablement. Grace and the anointing are very much similar. They are the ability of God Himself inside of us that enables us to do what we could not do without God filling us. Grace is inward, anointing is outward. Grace enables us on the inside to know and walk with Him, the anointing enables us on the outside to minister life and peace to others.

This grace that Peter tells us to expect with hearts filled with expectation and joy is a sealing of our minds, it is the nature of God written upon our foreheads. Expect it with all expectation.
I expect that the Lord Jesus will appear to me visibly, any day now, and to many of you as well, just as He appeared here and there after His resurrection. He is alive, you know. The time of His appearing is now. Yet, though we may not now see Him visibly, we rejoice in full expectation in all that His appearing in us means.

The time is now. The GRACE that IS to come is now, unfolding, revealing, glorifying Christ in us.
