THE 23rd OF OCTOBER
JESUS HAS RECONCILED US TO FATHER GOD
For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. – Romans 5:10-11
Through Jesus we are reconciled to God, into a state of fellowship and pure union with Him. While living in sin, we were at war with God. This proves God’s amazing love and grace, as He gave His Son to die for the salvation of His enemies. And He did not stop at just sparing us from eternal damnation, but He adopted us into His family and made us His children!
If He loved us that much we can be sure that while being His, He will help us even more to remain on the narrow path, that leads to heaven. And the good news does not end here. By following Jesus we can rejoice in God’s love. Through Jesus we received reconciliation with God and in Him we can find the fullness of love, hope, joy and peace.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
How amazing it is all You did for me dear Lord. Thank You Jesus for reconciling me to Father God and for bringing me back into fellowship with Him. You prepared fullness of joy, peace and love for me. Please help me seek, find and grasp all that You have for me, so that I will always have firm faith in You and never doubt my salvation. Please help me through the Holy Spirit to quickly repent when I sin and to choose to do what pleases God. In the Name of Jesus I pray. Amen
