The Director of Youth Affairs, Christ Apostolic Church, Nigeria and Overseas, Pastor Samson O. Gbuyiro, has described divine grace as a very important spiritual endowment that can facilitate Christians’ ability to successfully walk with God, enjoy His blessings and inherit His kingdom.Pastor Gbuyiro said this at the Ikeja Zone Youth Anniversary Thanksgiving Service, held at CAC Oke-Ife 1, the Zonal Headquarters located at Iju-Ishaga, Lagos, on Sunday, June 18.The eloquent Minister of God, who delivered a thought-provoking message on the anniversary theme of “Walking with God in Fullness of His grace”, based on John 1:16-17, said the purpose of the message is to challenge the congregation to pray for and utilise God’s grace to the fullest.“We need God’s grace to be able to walk with Him. It is the grace of God that can open the Gate of Heaven in prayer. In God’s Kingdom, there is no space for the celebration of any achievement without God’s grace,” he explained.The CAC Director of Youth Affairs gave the spiritual interpretation of the word “grace” as “God in a race” and justified this assertion by saying even Apostle Paul acknowledged the massive place of divine grace in all his achievements despite his impressive educational qualifications.Pastor Gbuyiro said he so much appreciates the scriptural distinction of the Gospel of John that places emphasis on the personality or person of Jesus Christ, unlike other Gospels that focus on His miracles, Ministry and other issues.According to the Guest Speaker, knowing the personality or person of Jesus Christ is very critical to Christians’ closeness of relationship with Him as the knowledge of the gospel alone is not enough.Pastor Gbuyiro stressed that there are three priorities of God. These are Purpose, Process as well as Promises and Benefits. The Guest Speaker, who emphasised purpose as the number one priority of God, explained that the purpose of God for redeeming His people through Jesus Christ is to challenge them to live their lives purposefully.ALSO READ: Four Kansas City Churches Partner to Reach Community
