Ephesians 2:8-9
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.
Inspiration.
Our salvation is not dependent on our works, what we do, but on God’s grace and what Jesus did for us on Calvary’s cross.
When we accept Jesus as our Saviour and Redeemer we receive God’s salvation so rich and free.
And at the time of our baptism we also receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit helps us to understand God’s Holy Scripture, helps to lead, guide and direct us into God’s truth, helps us to be obedient to God, helps us resist the evil one, and live a holy God-centered life.
Prayer (for you)
Heavenly Father,
How great You are.
Thank You for Your Plan of Salvation, so rich and free to everyone who accepts Jesus as their Saviour.
O Lord, thank You for Your saving grace.
Your grace – is giving to sinners what they do not deserve through Jesus Christ, our Saviour.
Grace is God’s unmerited favour – so when we have faith in God, He gives to us sinners, His unmerited favour, forgives our sins, and gives to us eternal life through Jesus Christ.
And we are now part of the family of God, washed in the fountain and cleansed by the precious blood of Jesus.
I thank and praise You, Lord God, Lord Jesus, for Your saving grace and sacrifice of love to save me.
I love and adore You, and I bless Your Holy Name.
In Jesus’ name, I pray with thanksgiving. Amen.
