DAY FOUR: December 01 - Thursday
Your life as a disciple of Jesus is a gi . Your freedom from the penalty
of sin is a gi . Your life in the Kingdom is a gi . Your life with the Spirit
is a gi . Your resurrec on in the future is a gi . The love of God the
Father you experience everyday is a gi . It is a gi from the One who
comes to us as a gi : Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ, our Lord and Savior,
the Son of the living God!
Today, may God’s grace in you be heard in your every word, seen in
your every ac on, and felt in your every touch.
❅FOR CONTEMPLATION:
Ephesians 2:1-10
❅FOR REFLECTION:
Why does our salva on come as a gi ? To what purpose is our
salva on by grace?
What is our response to being saved by grace? In our ac ons? In our
words? In our a ec ons? In our emo ons?
Grace not only changes our des ny, but also our day-to-day. How so?
❅FOR PRAYER (ONE-MINUTE):
“Father, I recognize no other salva on nor any other savior except
Jesus, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.”
(pause)
“I repent of all pride that seeks to jus fy myself in Your presence.”
(pause)
“I am what I am by your grace. I want to live in that reality today.”
