So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the powerof the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death. Romans 8:1-2 NLT
Grace does not excuse away my sin
It doesn’t excuse away my iniquities or give me license to do whatsoever I please
It does not imply that I can rest on God’s grace and skip good works
Grace can never be earned
It is not meted out to everyone
Because grace is freely bestowed by God upon those who recognize their sinfulness
Grace provides a substitute for the condemnation my sin deserves
Grace is God’s unmerited favor shown to sinners who recognize their need for a Savior
Have you received God’s grace? If not, I would encourage you to pray with me. “God, I acknowledge I am a sinner. I know that my sins keep me from enjoying fellowship with you. Thank you for sending Jesus to die in my place. Please forgive my sins and help me live in a way that is pleasing to you. I accept your gift of grace and ask you to reign in my life as Lord and Savior from this day forward. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”
