Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; “Titus 3:5′

When our almighty dear Heavenly Father desired to save us, He didn’t organize a competition that would reward people with salvation. If anyone wants to boast about their efforts to earn salvation, the Bible clearly states that we were saved because of God’s mercy.

God’s mercy is His goodness and kindness toward us. It’s His precious define character that makes Him look beyond our flaws in order to save us after all. It’s not because of any good things we did. Neither is it because of our loyalty to His agenda that we got rewarded with salvation. We were in darkness and chained to the dying populace on the expressway to hell and eternal damnation. But God was merciful to save us. He washed us by the power of the Holy Spirit. He gave us a new birth and a fresh beginning.

Who could have loved us this much? What could have taken away the punishment we so much deserved and instead, set us on a new course to life eternal in God’s presence? It’s a new beginning for us both. We are called to do things differently and live differently. Therefore, having been reborn, we have entered into the reality of our destiny. We are God’s workmanship, created in Christ for good works (Ephesians 2:10). We are the light of the world, called to live righteously to glorify God “Matthew 5:14′.

Let us pray:

Dear Lord almighty Heavenly Father, there are no words to express my gratitude and praise for You, for Your mercy is unsearchable, Your infinite love is immeasurable, and Your kindness unquantifiable. You have given me life. You have made my life full of light and destroyed the works of darkness I was chained to. In You I find life and glory. Your life through the Holy Spirit is the life at work in me. I pray that You will choose my paths and lead me in the ways of righteousness in all I do. May I never take pride in what I accomplished and instead give thanks for Your mercy and power. Thank you Lord almighty Heavenly Father. I pray this throughout the mighty glorious name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Much LoVe, JoY, Peace and Blessings through Jesus Christ, our almighty wonderful, dear infinite loving Lord, Saviour and Redeemer, in who we faithfully abide, trust, believe and abundantly do receive, throughout His marvelous righteous Word and His truth fulfilling Holy Spirit.
