god’s grace – God's Word Light

“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace,” Ephesians 1:7 (NLT).

Commentary: The hymn “Nothing but the blood of Jesus” constantly reminds us that all our sins have been washed away by the blood of Jesus. This eternal redemption comes into fulfilment through the grace of God bestowed on us by virtue of Christ’s great sacrifice on the cross of calvary.

As Jesus Christ used to tell people: “Go and sin no more!“. This is eternally applicable to us as well. Therefore, let’s rejoice in God’s unmerited favor displayed towards us.

Prayers: May the blood of Jesus Christ shed for our redemption remain ever powerful in our lives.

“With the help of Silas, whom I regard as a faithful brother, I have written to you briefly, encouraging you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand fast in it,” 1 Peter 5:12 (NIV).

Commentary: God’s grace is an unmerited favor, which means we do not have it because of our good works or self-imposed holiness. God just gives us His grace because He genuinely loves us. He wants us to be happy, fulfilled, and righteous. Our duty is to be forever grateful to God for this show of unmerited kindness. We can do this by loving one another dearly, because Jesus Christ said, ‘the most important commandment I will give you is: “Love ye one another!” ‘

Prayers: May Your grace abound in our lives and be reflected in everything we do, O Lord.
