*For we also were once foolish, disobedient, gone astray, enslaved to all lusts and pleasures, living in wickedness and lust, worthy to be hated, and hating one another.
*But when the goodness of God our Saviour and his love for mankind were made manifest,* he saved us, not from the evil of the world, but from the evil of the world.
he saved us, not by works of righteousness which we had done, but according to his mercy, through the baptism of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, which he poured out upon us in the Holy Spirit.
which he has poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour,* * so that we might be justified through him.
*so that, justified by his grace, we may become heirs of eternal life in hope.
*This saying is certain, and I want you to affirm these things, so that those who have believed in God may be diligent to do good works.
In reading this text, we discover that in our state of spiritual death, blindness, brokenness and poverty…
God did not consider this yoke, he did not look at our weaknesses.
The Bible tells us that no one was interested in us, that we had no value, no bearings, no direction BUT when Jesus came in, the doors opened and a solution was found.
With God, there’s a difference, there’s authority, the miracle of his grace was available, his love to save us, his patience and his power to change us were there.
When God’s presence is there, God’s spirit fills us, comforts us and guides us.
In our vulnerability, Jesus always shows his compassion.
In our failures, our limitations, he loves us, he wants to unburden us, to redirect us.
God’s love is real, it makes us happy.
We cannot find God’s love if we do not obey him, if we do not love to help and sacrifice ourselves for others.
The greatest expression of God’s love is the cross.
His love is invariable.
Many have loved us, but then it cooled off, they left us, they forgot us, but Jesus promised to love us to the end.
Let’s learn to be grateful to God for his love.
Psalm 40:6 – You have multiplied, O Lord my God! I would declare and proclaim them, but their number is too great for me to tell.
Bear witness of God’s love for you.
The Lord makes us understand that he will not abandon us, he will not forsake us, he is always ready to do us good no matter how imperfect we are.
Isn’t that God’s love?
So let’s not close our mouths, let’s go and tell people about the works of the Lord.
Let’s tell the world that our Jesus hasn’t changed and that his faithfulness lasts forever.
Good day to you all
Good day to you all
