Romans 5:20 “Where sin increased and abounded, Grace (God’s unmerited favor) has surpassed it and increased the more and super-abounded” AMPC.
Imagine taking a bottle of regular drinking water and pouring it into the saltwater ocean. Guess what happens? The salt water overwhelms and engulfs and completely consumes the regular water. It’s the same with sin. You could never “Out-Sin” God’s grace and unmerited favor for you. Your sin is like that bottle of regular water. God’s Grace is the ocean. Like the ocean, God’s grace and undeserved favor far surpasses your sin or failure. Too good to be true? Micah 7:19 says that He will “cast all their sins into the depths of the sea”.
It’s the same with a sickness, you can’t “Out-Sick” God’s grace. His divine health overwhelms and surpasses the symptoms in your body. You can’t “Out-Poor” God’s grace. 2 Corinthian 8:9 says, “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”. In other words, you can’t “Out-____” God’s grace. Fill in the blank with anything that would try to deceive you into thinking that God’s grace falls short in any way. Simply not true!
