Romans 8:1-2 (03-05-09)

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.

— Romans 8:1-2 (NIV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

The law of Spirit and life is a great liberator! We are set free from the law of sin and death. Death has no mastery over us because of Jesus' resurrection. Sin has no claim on us because Jesus on the Cross paid off our debt to sin. We stand before God as his righteous children, free at last because of the work of our mighty Lord Jesus Christ. There is no condemnation in our future, only glory!My Prayer...

Thank you, Almighty God, for your plan to pay my ransom and to liberate me from sin and death. Thank you for the confidence I have because of your incomparable grace given to me through Jesus, in whose name I pray. Amen.

 

[K-J]

Look at His hands and His side

They swallowed the grave on that night

When He drank the world's sin

So He could carry you in

And give you life...

He wants to give you life!

Father, I accept Your free gift - may I bring honor to His sacrifice with every breath of my life. In Jesus' perfect and holy name, Amen.
