How can we receive God's gifts?

The sermon emphasizes that God's gifts cannot be earned; they are given freely out of His grace and mercy. Ephesians 2:8-9 outlines this by stating, '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.' This truth encourages believers to approach God with humility, recognizing their unworthiness while actively seeking the gifts that He offers. The response to God's grace is a life of thankfulness and dedication, as the realization of what God has done for us compels us to serve Him authentically.
