Today's Godly Reminder - Deuteronomy 33:27

God is our Ultimate Protector from the works of the enemies. The enemy is like a devouring lion, ready to attack us anytime. But, we must not be deceived by the enemy. Ask God for protection everyday, and He will carry you in His mighty arms.

The Daily Grace - Jesus already Paid the Price

Perhaps we ask ourselves, how much does it cost to enter the kingdom of God? The answer is free! It is because Jesus Christ already paid the price for us by His death. "All of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. But, God treats us much better than we deserve, and because of Christ Jesus, he freely accepts us and sets us free from our sins. (Rom. 3:23–24, CEV). When we acknowledge our spiritual need and accept by faith God’s forgiveness for our sins, we have a new and everlasting life in Him.

What does it really mean that we have fallen short of God's glory? The glory of God is the outward manifestation of God’s character, which, at the center, is His holiness and love. In God’s plan of redemption, human beings are to share in this glory. Those who respond to Christ’s offer of salvation begin a process of reflecting God’s character (2 Cor. 3:18).

You can have a new life today because, by His death on the cross and His resurrection from the dead, Jesus already Paid the Price! Admit that you are a sinner and ask for forgiveness in His mighty throne. You will just simply humble yourselves before the Lord and He will lift You up!

Today We Pray

Dear Jesus, thank You for creating me to live in freedom. May your Holy Spirit guide me to follow you freely. Hold me with love and grace.

I believe that You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I want to accept You as my Savior and follow You. Please forgive my sins and help me, from this moment on, to live a life that is pleasing to You.

Instill in my heart a desire to know and love you more each day. Give me a sense of hope, encouragement, and growth areas in my life. Let me produce a rich fruit that comes from serving you wholeheartedly.

Amen.

Today's Godly Reminder - Romans 3:23

Everyone of us here in this world have sinned. No person is perfect. God is the only One who is perfect in this world. But, do not be dismayed. He is faithful to forgive us and purify us from all unrighteousness if we just ask for forgiveness to the One (1 John 1:9). Come to Jesus, and He will forgive you.

The Daily Grace - Keep the Faith Alive

Do you have that spirit of faith? Let faith rule in your lives. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him (Heb. 11:6). Having faith, especially to God, pleases Him.

We can read a lot of stories in the Bible in which the characters had faith in the Lord. You can read them in Hebrews 11. You will be inspired by their testimonies when they put their faith. Although it is not really easy, but they persevered and trusted God to work on their lives. It made God happy 'coz he was pleased by the actions of His servant.

We may learn from the lessons in the Bible to completely have faith in the Lord. It takes a lot of patience to have this. You will be complete in the Lord if you just have faith. What our faith rests on is the belief that God is in ultimate control and will indeed keep His promises—whether that happens in this life or the next. Our greatest comfort in sorrow is to know that God is in control (Our Daily Bread).

Today We Pray

Dear Lord, I pause for a moment now and feel Your presence. In every part of my body and deep within my being, I dwell on Your presence. Give me a faith that trusts You wholeheartedly, Lord.

Cleanse me from all my sins. Cleanse my heart and soul. I want to live joyously in Your love.

Grant me grace, O God. Let me have that freedom of the Spirit. May I respond to your call today.

Amen.

Today's Godly Reminder - Hebrews 11:6

Faith is not like a magic formula. It does not work like that. Putting your faith means completely trusting and putting your whole confidence in something without doubt. It is a strong belief. When you put your faith in the Lord, it pleases Him. Do the things that is pleasing in God's eyes, and one of this is having faith in Him.
