God’s Grace for Salvation has been given to ALL men(mankind)!

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and Godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Titus 2:11-13 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S MANNA:
In a world that has no absolutes, in a world that has day by day declining moral and ethical standards. In a world where men with men and women with women is supposed to be okay according to the world, but according to God’s Word it is an abomination (EVIL) unto Him In a world where justice is a thing of the past and crime runs rampant even to the killing of police officers just for the sake of doing it, salvation by the costly grace of God beckons us to change our lifestyle in response to God’s grace. Anyone who receives the grace of God and refuses to pursue righteousness only demonstrates his or her ignorance of the Word and Grace of God or just their plain evil hardness of heart. And by their fruit are showing that they really haven’t received the Grace of God. Notice also that in the verse cited above, God’s Grace for Salvation has been given to ALL men (All of mankind). But not all have received it! In our day and time, to be saved means we must also pursue righteousness — not so that we may earn our salvation, since salvation is the gift of God and not of works, but so that God’s saving grace, freely given to ALL mankind, will not be in vain. Looking to Jesus who HAS (past tense) redeemed us with His precious blood and making Him the Lord of our life. Putting away old ways and habits.

MY PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Holy Father, I confess that I live in a confusing time. Satan is always distorting the distinction between right and wrong, good and evil, moral and immoral. He is forever trying to lie and deceive us, sometimes even using scripture that he has slightly altered. Because You have been so gracious with me, may my life today reflect the righteousness You gave me through Jesus. May the words from my mouth and the thoughts of my heart, be pleasing in Your sight, my Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer. Through Jesus, my redeeming sacrifice I pray.
Amen
