Pastor Chris Oyakhilome announced to the global audience at the recently concluded Global Communion Service: “Welcome to the month of August! This is the month of great grace. As we step into this new month, I want to share with you the incredible power and significance of grace in our lives…”
The Man of God continued to say: “You’re going to walk in great grace, extraordinary things will happen in your life, Great grace is for special things. God’s attention is towards you to do you good and bless you in a special way. It’s His plan. And you say AMEN to it. That’s what you’re going to enjoy this month.”
As we step into the month of August in the ‘Year of Redemption‘, we are ushered into a divine season of unprecedented favor and blessings.
Understanding Great Grace
Grace, in its simplest form, is God’s unmerited favor. It is His divine assistance given to humans for their regeneration and sanctification. The Bible is replete with instances where God’s grace has transformed lives, provided supernatural strength, and opened doors that seemed impossible to access. In this context, “Great Grace” goes beyond the ordinary. It speaks of an abundant, overflowing measure of God’s favor that surpasses human understanding and expectation.
The Significance of the Prophetic Word
Pastor Chris’ declaration of August as the ‘Month of Great Grace’ is not just a casual statement; it is a prophetic word intended to align believers with God’s divine agenda for their lives. This month, we are called to tap into this great grace, to experience God’s hand in every aspect of our lives—spiritual, physical, financial, or emotional.
In Acts 4:33, the Bible says, “And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.” This scripture highlights the transformative power of great grace. It enabled the apostles to perform extraordinary feats, spreading the message of Jesus Christ with boldness and effectiveness. Similarly, Pastor Chris encourages us to embrace this great grace, allowing it to empower us to fulfill our divine purposes.
Living in the Reality of Great Grace
To fully experience the ‘Month of Great Grace’, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome outlines several key steps:
- Stay Connected to the Word of God: The Word of God is the foundation of our faith. By immersing ourselves in the scriptures, we align our thoughts and actions with God’s will, making us prime candidates for His great grace.
- Cultivate a Lifestyle of Prayer: Prayer is a powerful tool that connects us directly with God. Through fervent and consistent prayer, we position ourselves to receive divine revelations and guidance.
- Walk in Love and Compassion: Grace flows more abundantly in an environment of love and unity. By showing love and compassion to others, we create a fertile ground for God’s grace to manifest.
- Exercise Faith: Faith is the currency of the spiritual realm. By exercising faith, we draw on the limitless resources of heaven, making the impossible possible.
- Be a Witness: Just as the apostles witnessed with great power, we are called to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with others. Our testimonies of God’s grace can inspire and uplift those around us.
