Theme for the Week: JUSTIFIED THROUGH GRACE
Reading: Philippians 2:12-13
_______________________
Philippians 2:12 (KJV)
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
When you come to Christ, believing in His death and resurrection, salvation is sure. However, you need to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
To work out your salvation is to put your believe into practice. Salvation is for all men, but you must decide as an individual to receive it of God.
God does the initial preparation in your by putting the desire to be saved in you and creation every opportunity for you to make the decision.
Thus, as you have chosen to follow Christ, put into practice what you have believed, keeping in mind that you have been justified through the grace of God in Christ Jesus.
Stay blessed. Shalom.
Let's Pray:
Abba Father, we thank You for Your salvation plan for all mankind, including ourselves. We pray that as You have justified us through grace, work in us both to will and to do of Your good pleasure through Christ Jesus. Amen.
