This is victory unto victory, abundance unto abundance, favour unto favour, excellence unto excellence, success unto success, goodness unto goodness when the spirit of Christ Jesus is in you.

Grace upon grace makes much more sense to me than "grace for grace" or any of the other forms mentioned in the above commentaries, especially when it is taken to mean that God, through Christ, freely gives the new creature in Christ the drive i.e., the will, the strength, or the gift that will provide him with all he needs to become more and more conformed to the image of His Son through good works.

I believe that His fullness is now ours and He continues to bless us!

We have been given the opportunity to fulfill our salvation by God in good faith and must use that grace with good grace in a willing manner
