In the past when we thought of the throne of grace we have added the word room, and we have pictured this room where we can go and pray to get help with some present situation in our life, But the throne of grace is a whole lot more than that, the throne of grace is the place where grace geigns in our mortal bodies where sin once reigned, the bible teaches that where sin abound, grace abound so much more enabling the people of God to live in absolute victory over sin, If is because of grace that we are instructed to not let sin have dominion over our mortal body, it is through the grace of God that mortals can live like immortals. Romans 6:12 King James Version (KJV) 12Â Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts Romans 6:14 14Â For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. thereof.

Because of the help that Jesus received from the Spirit of Grace he was able to live an error free life, he was not dominated by sin, nor was he dominated by the flesh. Jesus possessed his vessel in holiness, and it was all because of grace. You may say, but that was Jesus; the scripture text declares that Jesus was able to be tempted in every point that you and I are, yet he did not commit a single act of sin, what made this possible? First let's look at what made it possible tor Jesus to be tempted in all points as we are,Â Jesus was able to be temped as you and I, because he became a mortal man, that could experience all the things that we experience, even dearth on the cross. Hebrews 2:14 King JamesÂ 14Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
