While the Law enforces to live Holy for the Lord our God is Holy, Grace reinforces the ability to actually do it.
The Law shows us how wretched we are in our own ability and Grace shows us how powerful Christ is too keep us from falling
There is absolutely nothing God will require of us that He will not provide for us a way to get it done. That would be setting us up for failure.
Today stop trying in your own power to live Holy (it can't be done by you alone). Instead if you are going to do anything in your own power READ the Word... Get knowledge so that you can believe it is by grace that we are already the righteousness of God through our Faith. We just have to receive what Jesus has done for us and rely on Him.
And remember proof of faith is obedience! When we really believe that we are the righteousness of God it will show up in the choices we make. Choose to Study the Word, Choose, to believe the Word, Choose the Live the Word. And allow Grace to empower you to live holy!
2 Peter 1:3 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.
