Text: Psalm 27:1(KJV)
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom
shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
Friends, your day of salvation is not just an
event but a journey of intimacy with God. It is God’s heartbeat of love and we
must cherish the experience. Hence, it is in salvation that we are redeemed,
rescued, restored and renewed. So, God’s ultimate agenda is to save humanity
from bondage into a glorious future and eternity in view. It is not a gift for
destruction but for honour and beauty. Romans
10:13 For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Therefore,
we are also saved from fear, failure, darkness which separated us from God.
Salvation reconciles us back to God from slavery and bondage to death. But
remember, that we are saved by mercy and for a relationship with God. And
today, by salvation God has brought us into victory and peace for eternal glory.
Also, salvation brings us from emptiness into His divine purpose.
Isaiah 12:2 Behold,
God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid.
Interestingly, God initiated salvation and
therefore we need Him to sustain this walk of salvation. We now enjoy freedom
from guilt and shame on every side. Habakkuk 3:18 - I will rejoice in the Lord, I
will joy in the God of my salvation. So, the same way God saved men of old
like David from his enemies, Daniel from the lion’s den, Israelites from the
bondage of Egypt etc, He will save us today no matter the long lasting
captivity. I pray we shall acknowledge Him, believe Him, confess Him and have a
new walk with Him daily in Jesus name.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, may I continue to embrace this greatest gift and need to
humanity as He is ever ready to save, to heal and to revive us today in Jesus
name.

QUOTE: Remember, salvation gives us all the power to live righteously and to remain
in hope.
