Focus: Saved by Grace

WORD FOR TODAY
A man is frustrating the grace of God if he lives believing that he can get it right with God by what he does or did not do. No matter what happens in your walk with God; your premises must not change because we are saved by grace and not by works!!!
************************************
Scriptural Reference
"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes when people are caught in the web of sin, they become weary, dejected and give up doing the will of God thereby wallowing in sin. Some by the virtue of the critical analysis of what they have done till date conclude that God can never accept them again.

The word of God makes it clear that all have sinned (Rom 3:23) and the wages of sin is death (Rom 6:23). No amount of religious activities like fasting, giving of alms, praying, singing, preaching, teaching and careful living can make a man to stand in righteousness before God.

Only the man who comes to the cross and accept the work of the cross can be saved. You are only accepted by God because Christ took your place and your deeds was laid on Him where He was crucified. Hence, you are saved by faith in Christ Jesus. Whatever happens to you in the journey of life; don't forget the Cross!

Question For Meditation:
+ What did you do to get saved?

Prayer Point
Lord! I thank you for the saving grace made available to me in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis
To be saved by grace means to be delivered from the righteous judgement of God through no act of your own but by His unmerited favour!!!

Have an Inspired Wednesday!!!

It is nothing but the grace of God.
