THE ABUNDANCE OF
GRACE
 Tell us about your favorite movie. What do you
like about it?
CONNE  What is one bad habit you wish you can break?

CT Why?
 Who is one of the most gracious people you
know? Recall a specific instance explaining this.
 For if, by the trespass of the one
man, death reigned through that one
man, how much more will those who
WORD receive God’s abundant provision of
grace and of the gift of
righteousness reign in life through
the one man, Jesus Christ. Romans
5:17
 The Christian should not live a life of constant
oppression, depression, and hopelessness.
Because God has given the abundance of His
WHAT grace, we can reign over whatever adverse
circumstances come our way. Because of His
grace, we can and should live victorious lives in
Christ. Following are four benefits of God’s
grace in our lives.
1. We are saved by grace.
 8For it is by grace you have been saved, through
faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of
God—9not by works, so that no one can boast.
WHAT Ephesians 2:8,9 (See also Romans 11:6.)
 The victorious Christian life begins when we accept
that salvation is only by the grace of God, not by
our good works. Grace means we are saved because
of what God did for us, not what we do for Him. 
 What did God do for us that ensures our salvation?
What did we do for God to deserve salvation?
2. We can overcome weakness through grace.
 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for
you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
WHAT Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about
my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest
on me. 2 Cor. 12:9
 What are your weaknesses? How has God’s
grace been sufficient? What does “sufficient”
mean?
3. We can have victory over sin through grace.
 For sin shall not be your master, because you are
not under law, but under grace. Romans 6:14
 11For the grace of God that brings salvation has
WHAT appeared to all men. 12It teaches us to say “No” to
ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-
controlled, upright and godly lives in this present
age. Titus 2:11,12 
 What is a “master?” Why should sin not be our
master? Who is our master?
 What does grace teach us to say “no” to?
4. All our needs can be met through grace.
 And God is able to make all grace abound to

WHAT you, so that in all things at all times, having all


that you need, you will abound in every good
work. 2 Corinthians 9:8
 How has God’s grace supplied your needs?
 What does it mean to have all that you need?
 According to the Bible, what is grace? How does
God’s grace differ from your understanding of
grace?
SO WHAT  How does grace enable you to overcome
weakness and sin? What do you think a person
full of God’s grace looks like?
 Why do you think God’s grace is described as
abundant, rich, and all-sufficient?
 Have you been saved by God’s grace? If not,
would you like to receive His grace and gift of
eternal life, and begin living for Him today?
 Are there sinful habits, actions, or attitudes in
your life that you need God’s grace to say “no”
NOW WHAT to? How can you walk in repentance and faith to
overcome these this week?
 Do you have a biblical understanding of grace?
What can you do to appreciate and further
understand His grace this coming week?
 Thank God for His all-sufficient, abundant, and saving
grace.
 Appropriate God’s grace over your life in your specific
situation. Whether it is a weakness, sin, or a difficult
circumstance, ask God for His grace to flood your life and
PRAYER fill you to the overflowing. Believe that every need you
have will be met through His grace.
 Pray for your family and friends who have not yet received
God’s saving grace for their lives. Pray for their salvation
and that they would surrender their lives to Jesus Christ.
