Bible Answer: Hi! This Scripture is amazing! Here's what the Strong's Concordance has for the word "grace" in this passage. Strong's Number: 5485 Charis - Noun Feminine 1. grace a. that which affords joy, pleasure, delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness: grace of speech 2. good will, loving-kindness, favour a. of the merciful kindness by which God, exerting his holy influence upon souls, turns them to Christ, keeps, strengthens, increases them in Christian faith, knowledge, affection, and kindles them to the exercise of the Christian virtues 3. what is due to grace a. the spiritual condition of one governed by the power of divine grace b. the token or proof of grace, benefit 1.a gift of grace 2.benefit, bounty 4. thanks, (for benefits, services, favours), recompense, reward I like the way the Amplified Version brings it out; 2 Cor. 12:9 - But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me! In Christ, SRP |
