I love reading about the grace of God. It is mysterious and encouraging. We are a sinful people and God did not have to extend grace to us — but He did. We should never lose sight of how abundant this grace is. Take a look at some inspiring Christian quotes about grace that I have found. I just had to share them!
Grace in a Song
“From the creation to the cross. Then from the cross into eternity. Your grace finds me. Yes, Your grace finds me. There in the darkest night of the soul. There in the sweetest songs of victory. Your grace finds me. Yes, Your grace finds me.” ~ Your Great Grace, Matt Redman
“Wonderful the matchless Grace of Jesus,
the matchless Grace of Jesus,
Deeper than the mighty rolling sea;
the rolling sea;
Wonderful Grace, all sufficient for me, for even me
Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain,
All sufficient Grace for even me.
Broader than the scope of my transgressions,
sing it!
Greater far than all my sin and shame
my sin and shame,
O magnify the precious name of Jesus,
PRAISE HIS NAME! ~Wonderful Grace of Jesus, Haldor Lillenas
“Great is your faithfulness oh God.You wrestle with the sinner’s heart. You lead us by still waters into mercy. And nothing can keep us apart. So remember your people. Remember your children. Remember your promise, oh God. Your grace is enough. Your grace is enough. Your grace is enough. Your grace is enough for me.” ~ Your Grace is Enough, Matt Maher
“Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.” ~ Amazing Grace, John Newton
“Grace, what have You done? Murdered for me on that cross. Accused in absence of wrong. My sin washed away in Your blood. Too much to make sense of it all. I know that Your love breaks my fall. The scandal of grace, You died in my place. So my soul will live. ~Scandal of Grace, Joel Houston & Matt Crocker
“Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt!
Yonder on Calvary’s mount outpoured,
there where the blood of the Lamb was spilt.
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
grace, grace, God’s grace,
grace that is greater than all our sin” ~ Grace Greater Than Our Sin, Julia H. Johnston
Grace and Life
“Do you find life too difficult for you? So did we, but not now, with the amplitudes of grace there are for us in Jesus Christ, it grows satisfying and successful and exciting beyond measure, becomes another and a richer thing.” ~ A.J. Gossip
“If life has not made you by God’s grace, through faith, holy–think you, will death without faith do it? The cold waters of that narrow stream are no purifying bath in which you may wash and be clean. No! no! as you go down into them, you will come up from them.” ~ Alexander MacLaren
“Don’t try to live to make an impression on anyone. Accept God’s provision for your life. Don’t live or act beyond the measure of the Grace of Christ upon your life.” ~ Benjamin Suulola
“Between here and heaven, every minute that the Christian lives will be a minute of grace.” ~ Charles Spurgeon
“A man can no more take in a supply of grace for the future than he can eat enough today to last him for the next 6 months, nor can he inhale sufficient air into his lungs with one breath to sustain life for a week to come. We are permitted to draw upon God’s store of grace from day to day as we need it.” ~ D.L. Moody
The Effects of Grace
“Grace is the power of the Holy Spirit coming to us free of charge to enable you to do with ease what you could never do on your own with any amount of struggle and effort.” ~ Joyce Meyers
“The cross is the lightning rod of grace that short-circuits God’s wrath to Christ so that only the light of His love remains for believers.” ~ A.W. Tozer
“Let us remember the loving-kindness of the Lord and rehearse His deeds of grace. Let us open the volume of recollection, which is so richly illuminated with memories of His mercy, and we will soon be happy.” ~ Alister McGrath
“The doctrines of grace humble man without degrading him and exalt him without inflating him.” ~ Charles Hodge
Powerful Grace
“Grace, on the other hand, means that God is pursuing you. That God forgives you. That God sanctifies you. When you are apathetic toward God, He is never apathetic toward you. When you don’t desire to pray and talk to God, He never grows tired of talking to you. When you forget to read your Bible and listen to God, He is always listening to you. Grace means that your spirituality is upheld by God’s stubborn enjoyment of you.” ~ Preston Sprinkle
“But grace has only one direction that it can take. Grace always flows down.” ~ Alexander Whyte
“Grace isn’t just forgiveness, it is forgiveness fueled by surrender.” ~ Amy E. Spiegel
“You may not be able to predict the time of a tornado, earthquake or the Lord’s return. But you can know for a fact that He is coming back. Work today to share the escape route of God’s grace with others, before the night cometh” ~ David Jeremiah
Final Thoughts
Grace is something to sing about. It is necessary for life. It changes our outlook and it is powerful. But the greatest thing about grace is that it is absolutely free!
Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
