I Am Amazed
Dearly beloved of God, I am constantly in awe that God sent His Son to save me and provide me with a life that is more than abundant. He is most certainly the God of love, grace, mercy, forgiveness, righteousness, and the hope.
When I was dead in sin, ungodly, and His enemy, He called me in Christ, chose me in him, and saved me. It is hard to take it in.
In Christ we are justified from the condemnation of Adam’s sin and death’s reign over us. He showed us the riches of His grace by forgiving us in Christ. Not only, we were healed by the stripes laid on him.
We are redeemed from the adversary’s dominion over us and on the day of redemption Christ Jesus our Lord will gather us up to him in the air to be glorified with him.
We are members of the body of Christ and we are sanctified from the ungodly who reject God’s mercy and grace that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. We are God’s inheritance.
We are now righteous in Christ and we stand before God in him without any sense of sin, guilt, or condemnation. God is our Father and we are His kids and brothers and sisters to one another.
In Christ we are holy and without blame before our Father.
Our Heavenly Father has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm, and it will take Him the ages to come to demonstrate the exceeding riches of His grace to us in His loving kindness and with His tender mercies.
We are complete in Christ Jesus our Lord, dearly beloved; complete, filled to the full with all that he accomplished.
In Christ Jesus our Lord we have the promise of life, spirit life, everlasting life.
In Christ we have access to our Father by the spirit of sonship and He encourages us to use it with boldness and confidence. He enabled us with His spirit; it is power from on high that is ours to manifest for godly profit.
He gave us His Word so that He can open the eyes of our understanding, believe Him, and have the profit that only the truth can bring.
He exhorts us to pray without ceasing, and He says that He is able and willing to provide us with the answers we need. We are to be confident of this reality dearly beloved.
Yes, I am overwhelmed daily by His great grace and mercy, and rejoice that Christ Jesus the Lord is coming to save and redeem us.
Dearly beloved we will see the Father will make all things new again in the new heaven and new earth. He will wipe away all tears from our eyes, and there will be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things will pass away. Rejoice!
These light afflictions, which are but for a moment work for us a far more exceeding and eternal heavy weight of glory. Everyone who has this hope in him keeps himself pure as he is pure. Yes, dearly beloved, I am amazed at His great grace and love for us.
