His gift

They cried out in a loud voice, saying,

“Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the throne,

and to the Lamb!”                                                      Rev. 7.10

Hallelujah! Indeed salvation belongs to God and to Jesus. Jesus extinguished the debt of our sins to God.

What amazing grace we live under. God loves us so much that He came Himself in human form to pay the price required in order that we might be restored to Him.

We cannot decide who will get saved and when, but we can be ready to accept this wonderful free gift when our gracious God offer it to us.

I rejoice that God has already extended the gift of salvation to me. I also rejoice that I am able to come before Him with prayer and supplication, and I do that now, with a humble request that He prepare those I love and care for, to be ready when the gift of salvation is offered to them.

Lord God,

Again I come before You with rejoicing – rejoicing that I have a wonderful relationship with You, and rejoicing that I can come to You with earnest and sincere requests for the gift of salvation for my loved ones.

I pray for those who don’t presently walk with Jesus. I include family members, neighbours, friends and acquaintances. I am so wanting them all to know You, to savour and enjoy the wonderful love and intimacy that come from relationship with You.

Hear my cry, lord. This gift is just too much for me to keep to myself. Help me, Lord, to share it with all that I know!

I praise You. I worship You.

            I rejoice in who I am in You.  

I commit those I know to Your loving care, in Jesus’ name.                           Amen.
