And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].
(2 Corinthians 9:8 AMPC)
And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].
(2 Corinthians 9:8 AMPC)
Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;
(2 Corinthians 3:5 KJV)
Anytime you see a man operating in a level that baffles you, displaying dimensions of results that are not common to everybody, there is a secret. Although God has made provisions in His economy that necessitates results to manifest in your life, until you understand that the sufficiency is of God and not of yourself, you may go through life not knowing how.
If you truly follow my teachings you play life like a chess. You know which card to play to win. Nothing happens by accident. Anytime you see a man operating in a dimension beyond human dimension, God is involved.
Apostle Ese Duke
The word “sufficiency” that we read in 2 Corinthians 3:5 means having enough for what is needed to meet your needs.
In essence, Apostle Paul was saying, “my sufficiency is not of myself. My ability is not of me but of God”.
Say out loud, “our sufficiency is of God.”
That means if you do not have enough ability or enough sufficiency, you will not make it.
In Proverbs 24:10, the Bible tells us
If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.
(Proverbs 24:10 KJV)
This means, if you faint in the day of adversity, there is a dimension of sufficiency and ability that is lacking. Every time you fail, every time circumstances make you want to quit, it is because you lack sufficiency in that area.
The Passion Translation version puts it like this:
If you faint when under pressure,
you have need of courage.
(Proverbs 24:10 TPT)
The journey of life requires sufficiency.
Prophet Elijah was so tired and as he was resting under a tree the angel of the Lord showed up and gave him some food to eat. The angel told the prophet he needed to eat the food because the journey was long. The angel told the prophet to eat some more because he needed the ability for the journey.
You can trace the results of men to their sufficiency. Little sufficiency, little results. Little ability, little results.
In Matthew 25:14–30 Jesus tells of a master who was going on a trip, and before leaving, he entrusted his property/talents to his servants according to their abilities. We know from reading to the end of the chapter that the servants produced according to their abilities.
Having the knowledge of the word of God brings about a shift in the dimension that you operate in.
Apostle Ese Duke
There are three dimensions of the Word of God that can produce abilities in your life:
- Knowledge
- Wisdom
- Understanding
These dimensions of God’s Word can produce grace and ability under the route of the office of Christ.
Colossians 1:9 tells us:
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
(Colossians 1:9 KJV)
Men deal with life circumstances based on the sufficiency they have in their lives.
2 Peter 1:2a says
Men deal with life circumstances based on the sufficiency they have in their lives.
2 Peter 1:2a says
This means that grace can be multiplied.
Grace is not limited to salvation.
Grace is a name given to every good and perfect gift that comes from God routed through the office of Christs’ anointing.
Until you understand what I am teaching, you will struggle. Thank God we are not of those that struggle.
Every dimension of spiritual possibilities that can reach men from God through Christ is called grace. So wisdom and faith are grace.
Faith can only obtain what grace has made available.
Unless the grace to obtain that thing that you desire is there, no matter how much faith you try to release, nothing changes.
Anytime a man obtains equipping from God it is called grace and it can be multiplied.
You must understand that the equipping and the sufficiency of God is not predicated on the love of God only. There is a system in the economy of God through which God equips man for the race of life and this sufficiency is called grace.
Apostle Ese Duke
What you need to overcome that situation in your life is called grace.
Say, “Lord, open my eyes; open my ears so I can see, hear and understand your Word. In Jesus name! Amen”
It is important to know that, God used men in the Bible but men have limitations to their understanding. When you read the Bible, you must understand that men’s understanding is progressive, that means we know more now that Moses knew in the book of Exodus. Men had encounters with God but they never had a sustained encounter with God because every sustained encounter must be through the office of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Ghost was never always with them but with us we have understanding. That is why in the book of Job, Job said, “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh” but we know God is not a taker. Job did not know. In the old revelation even part of the new, most of the disciples or Apostles thought everything that happened good or bad came from God. God does not do bad. God is good and he is good all the time.
Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
(2 Corinthians 12:8–9 NKJV)
Apostle Paul said he prayed to God three times that He may remove what he called “thorn in my flesh.”
God told Apostle Paul, “My grace is sufficient for you.”
Look at that, Apostle Paul said to God, Lord I need healing but God did not tell him, here is your healing. It’s like you telling God, Lord I need deliverance and God says, “No, what you need is the grace.”
God is not telling Apostle Paul to endure pain or to go through the problem but God was showing Apostle Paul something by saying, “My grace is sufficient for you.”
That means there is provision in God’s economy and what you really need is His sufficiency and His grace.
God was showing Apostle Paul that his prayer request to Him was an indication of which grace he was lacking in his life. So what you need is not that thing you think you need, you need grace.
Your situation in life is a reflection of the measure and the level of the sufficiency that is upon you.
There is a provision in your walk with God that the grace upon you is bigger than the problem that you face.
God was not telling Apostle Paul to deal with the pain but he was telling him that there is a way of escape. The way of escape is what God calls sufficiency.
In Proverbs 24:10, the Bible tells us that
If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.
(Proverbs 24:10 KJV)
So what you need is increased strength, increased ability, which is called grace. The good news is that, this grace can be multiplied, it can grow higher and higher and higher.
Grace is a spirit.
We know that there are limitless possibilities with God but many Christians experience limitation.
Limitation is an insult to the economy of divinity.
This is because, with God, there should be no limitation. When a child of God experiences limitation, this is an insult to God because that man or woman does not understand how to harness the grace that would overcome all kinds of limitations caused by the devil.
There is a requisite spiritual knowledge allocated for the result that you need. There are some results that you need in your life that only come through a requisite spiritual knowledge and your presence in the house of God when that word is released gives you the ability to catch it.
In God’s economy, hard work, zeal and determination is not enough. You need grace.
Apostle Ese Duke
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.
(2 Corinthians 9:8 NKJV)
The statement “all grace” means there are dimensions of graces. God said He is able to make all grace abound. This means God has the ability. It is interesting that God has the ability but He uses men to appropriate His ability.
Grace is not generic.
Grace has the ability to multiply in your life and God Has the ability to do this. Any dimension you see a man operate in as we see in this ministry, it is attributed to the grace on the life of that man.
Grace is like energy and it operates in different forms and dimensions.
Grace is spiritual and graces are invisible.
The circumstance in your life know the graces in your life and honors them.
All grace is about to be multiplied in your life. There can be grace for prosperity, grace for open doors, grace for favor, grace for honor, grace for speed, grace for courage, grace for divine health, grace for peace. It is all grace, but different dimensions and different levels.
The limitations in your life are proportional to the grace you are lacking in your life.
The grace is upon your life. It is what is on you that controls what is on the outside of you
Grace is multifaceted and God said He would make all grace abound towards you.
I decree, under the auction of the Holy Ghost, grace be multiplied unto you. God said He is able to make all grace abound towards you.
That grace that you need into this race of life I release it unto you now. In the name of Jesus.
Apostle Ese Duke
In Psalm 122:1 the Psalmist said, “I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.”
Where is the house of the Lord?
The house of God is not just a building.
Every house of God has a connection to throne of heaven.
In the house of God, dimensions of grace are released and multiplied as words are released.
Every prophetic word upon your life can only come to pass when it comes in contact with the grace that can bring it to pass. You may have words over your life for decades and nothing is changing because you have not had an encounter with the grace of God that brings about the release of that dimension of the prophetic word to come to pass in your life but today you are about to go to the next level.
Every house is built by man but mysteriously God is the builder but He uses men. I stand here before you and I minister to you day in day out. If you have been part of this ministry for at least 6 months and your life is not changing, two things are the cause:
- Unbelief
- Dishonor to the grace ministering to you
There is no way you would honor this grace and believe in your heart and it will not work for you.
The Psalmist said, “I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.”
You do not pick and choose when to go to the house of the Lord. In Psalm 92:13 the Bible says, “Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.”
What you need in your life is not money.
What you need is grace, grace that attracts money. Grace that brings money your way. Grace that brings multiplied prosperity your way. What you need is not land.
In the economy of God, grace becomes the sufficiency; it becomes the ability.
God said to Paul, my grace is sufficient for you and we know that the place you are lacking in is because there is no ability or sufficiency in that area.
The problems a man faces in his life are proportional to the grace that he lacks in his life.
When grace is at work in your life your words are respected in the realm of the spirit. You don’t have to talk too much, nor do you need to shout or scream.
I believe somebody is receiving grace today. Whatever grace you need is coming upon you. You don’t need the money. The way God helps men who are in need in His kingdom is through grace
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
(Hebrews 4:16 KJV)
The statement “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace” means, the throne of God is called the throne of grace. We know that the house of God is connected to the throne of heaven.
We go boldly unto the throne of grace “that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”
The thing you need help for, what you really need is grace. Once you can find the grace that produces the results, the thing will show up.
The Amplified Classic version puts it this way:
Let us then fearlessly and confidently and boldly draw near to the throne of grace (the throne of God’s unmerited favor to us sinners), that we may receive mercy [for our failures] and find grace to help in good time for every need [appropriate help and well-timed help, coming just when we need it].
(Hebrews 4:16 AMPC)
The Bible says “…and find grace to help in good time for every need”
That grace can be multiplied in your life this month. The grace that you need in that situation in your life will be multiplied upon you in this month in the name of Jesus.
Grace is spiritual and every circumstance in your life responds to the grace of God upon your life. I pray that the grace of God on my life and at work in this ministry must come upon you somehow today in the name of Jesus!
I decree today is the beginning of the manifestation of multiplied grace of God upon your life.
Even the grace that you have in your life right now will receive multiplication in abundance in the name of Jesus.
Say, “I will never be the same. Today, I will be touched, by the grace of God”
It is the grace on you that controls what is on the outside of you.
When grace is at work in your life, things are controlled by that grace. It is grace that attracts what is required in your life.
Apostle Ese Duke
You know the grace that you need multiplied in your life. Lift up your hands to heaven and for 30 seconds, open your mouth and begin to decree and declare by faith that you receive whatever grace you need right now!
Open your mouth, don’t pray to yourself. Pray to God in the spirit.
Your life will never be the same. His grace has touched your life.
Say, “In the name of Jesus, I receive grace, multiplied grace over my life in the name of Jesus.
Grace is coming upon you today in the name of Jesus!
