"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
Today's Bible Verse: Titus: 2:11-14 "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own people, zealous for good works."
Twice in verse 11, Paul speaks of Christ's appearance in history. The first time, Christ came in "GRACE" to save us from our sins, and the second time, He will come to REIGN.
The Grace of God is to produce two things in the life's of the believer: (1) We are to resist the evil temptations of this world and live godly lives (2) We are to look for the return of Christ. One of the strongest statements of the deity of Christ in the New Testament was made by Paul in Verse 13, when he says, "Great God and savior Jesus Christ".
Redeem means to "Purchase". Redemption is the act of Christ's purchasing the believer by His blood, so that we might be freed from our past captivity to sin. We are reminded here, that God's purpose in redeeming us, is not only to save us from hell, but He also wants to free us from sin, so that we can produce good works that will glorify Him.
Today's Hymn: "Redeemed How I Love To Proclaim It"
Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus, No language my rapture can tell
I know that the light of His presence, with me doth continually dwell
Redeemed, Redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
Redeemed, Redeemed, His child and forever I am
Heavenly Father, How marvelous it is to be redeemed because of the shed blood of Your Son Jesus Christ. May be live our lives in holiness, marked by a dedication of doing what is good and righteous for You.
Amen
Today's Biblical Truth: "Christ died to redeem us from sinful ways. No wonder we are to reject ungodliness"

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness. Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual defeat in your life and it yells out, "I CAN'T", God whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".
Yours in Christ,
