I prayed to GOD for you, “My Master, GOD, don’t destroy your people, your inheritance whom, in your immense generosity, you redeemed, using your enormous strength to get them out of Egypt.
ROMANS 8:32 (MSG)
If God didn’t hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn’t gladly and freely do for us?
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God has a tremendous track record of generously redeeming rebellious losers.
DAILY FODDER
How is it that our post-redemption responsiveness to God seems so short-lived? Are you currently receptive to everything God is wanting to do for you and through you?
PRAYER
Redeemer God, you stuck your neck out to rescue us from ourselves. We don't fully appreciate all that you've done throughout history — and especially through Christ. Soften my heart so that my faith continues to develop. I'm going to trust you to make changes in me and through me. It's great to partner with Christ the Redeemer. Amen!
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil. Amen!
