God's grace transforms rebels into saints, motivating believers to live for His glory.
The transformative power of God's grace is emphasized in the life of believers. Grace changes the hearts of those once at enmity with God, enabling them to live in a way that honors Him. Romans 5:21 states that grace reigns, which signifies that true believers are no longer slaves to sin but have been empowered by grace to pursue holiness. This change is not merely behavioral but deeply rooted in the believer’s identity as one accepted by God. Therefore, the effect of God's grace cultivates a heart that desires to please God, inspiring a life of worship, service, and obedience. As believers grasp the magnitude of God's grace, their lives become a testament to His restoring power in a world marred by sin.
