How do you receive grace from Jesus?

Answer 1

By humbling yourself, admitting to Him that you are a sinner who needs Him, and accepting his loving sacrifice on the cross.

Roman Catholic AnswerGrace is a totally gratuitous gift of God. We can do absolutely nothing to "earn" it, and we have no "right" to it. The primary means by which God imparts grace to us is through the sacraments, these are the means that Jesus established to communicate grace to us. The first of these, without which, none of the others can be received, is Baptism. The Sacraments work ex opere operato(see below). So the means by which we receive grace from Jesus is by worthy reception of the sacraments performed by the proper minister appointed by Jesus through His Church. The answer above is correct, in so far as it goes, it is just not complete. Yes, you must humble yourself, admit that you are a sinner who needs Jesus and accept His sacrifice on the cross. However, to be humble is to accept the way He instituted, which was through the sacraments, and to accept His sacrifice more than lip service is required, read the letter of St. James.

from Modern Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J. Doubleday & Co., Inc. Garden City, NY 1980

Ex opere operato. A term defined by the council of Trent to describe how the sacraments confer the grace they signify. Trent condemned the following proposition: "that grace is not conferred 'ex opere operato' by the sacraments of the New Law" (Denzinger 1608). Literally the expression means "from the work performed" stating that grace is always conferred by a sacrament, in virtue of the rite performed and not as a mere sign that grace has already been given, or that the sacrament stimulates the faith of the recipient and thus occasions the obtaining of grace, or that what determines the grace is the virtue of either the minister or recipient of a sacrament. Provided no obstacles (obex) is placed in the way, every sacrament properly administered confers the grace intended by the sacrament. In a true sense the sacraments are instrumental causes of grace

Sacrament. A sensible sign, instituted by Jesus Christ, by which invisible grace and inward sanctification are communicated to the soul. The essential elements of a sacrament of the New Law are institution by Christ the God-man during his visible stay on earth, and a sensibly perceptible rite that actually confers the supernatural grace it symbolizes...
