The Lord coming in grace refers to His continual presence and work in the hearts of believers, drawing them to Himself.
The concept of the Lord coming in grace entails His ongoing engagement with believers, revealing Himself through the workings of the Holy Spirit. In the context of the Gospel, this grace invites Christians to seek a deeper relationship with Jesus, echoing desires similar to those of the Greeks who sought to see Him (John 12:21). This divine drawing indicates that true desire for Christ is initiated by God and is a response to His prior love. Believers experience His grace as they encounter His presence, leading to spiritual growth and deeper longing for communion with Him, which Paul describes as a longing to be with the Lord where He is.
