Grace Abounding - All The LORD is near Daily Devotionals for 2026

But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 5:20–21

Grace Abounding
With God’s heart as its inexhaustible source and spring, grace reigns in righteousness and flows without limit through a lost and guilty world. Who can tell its fullness? No depth of need in the vilest sinner’s heart can exhaust it. No wounds of sin are too severe for grace to heal them. No crowd of sinners is too large for its priceless gifts.

All everywhere are invited to participate freely in the abounding grace of God, but so few accept His offer. And of those that do, how feeble is the apprehension of its fullness and the enjoyment of its exhaustless provision. Where is the man who would take a small cup to dip into an ocean of molten gold rolling at his feet? Would not everyone fill the largest vessels he possessed? An ocean of gold is but a feeble picture of the fullness and freeness of God’s grace. And yet, how little we receive in the vessel of our souls, as evidenced by the feebleness of our Christianity!

No tongue can declare, no pen can describe, no book can contain, no mind can imagine the fullness of the grace of our God. Height, depth, length, and breadth are expressions of measure, but they are utterly inadequate to present to our souls the extent and fullness of that grace which has no limit or boundary, which is ever flowing to man from the heart of God in eternal glory, and which has no end for all who receive it.

“For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many” (Rom. 5:15). “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich” (2 Cor. 8:9).
