Grace

 DAILY DEVOTION MCZ MISSION DEPARTMENT

 Ephesians 2:8

[8]For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 

Grace

Paul emphasises that salvation is accomplished based on grace, through faith. Every person is marked with sin, both deliberate and accidental and for this reason, we deserve to be separated from God. Only through His mercy and grace can we be saved.

This also means that all who are saved, Jew and Gentile alike are part of the same spiritual family.There is no need for hostility between believers; we are all unworthy and all saved by the same kindness of God.

Prayer

Thank you, dear Father, for your gift of salvation. I am not worthy to receive such a gift, but I thank you in Jesus Christ's name, Amen.
