For it is by God’s grace that you have been saved through faith. It is not the result of your own efforts, but God’s gift, so that no one can boast about it. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
The number 5 in the Bible is significant because his creation, the 'man' has five fingers, five senses and five toes. Thus it is the number of God's grace. ... Gematria is the name given to the process of assigning numbers to different words. If you have known me very long you know that I am big on numbers, words and their meanings. You can't be a student of the word of God and ignore numbers and meanings of words. They bring to life the word of God. They are another avenue for God to communicate to us through. That being said, I felt the Lord say, "today was going to be a day of grace. Today is going to be a day of the supernatural. My people who are called by my name are humbling themselves and fasting all over the nation. I am stepping in to manifest my grace in, on and through them."
I did not wake up asking God to speak to me. I wasn't praying and seeking Him for anything. Hence, He is doing exactly what He said. So, right now just receive it. Believe a prophet and so shall you prosper. I am so excited for this day. There are many things I desire to get accomplished and today I know that I will have the grace needed to complete the tasks at hand.
Accept His grace today. Walk in His grace today. Today is a great day to be alive.
