Dr. David Jeremiah Daily Devotionals September 2022 : Big Moments: Salvation :
God from the beginning chose you for salvation.
2 Thessalonians 2:13
Recommended Reading: Titus 2:11-15
We make life’s journey in small daily steps, but there are important mile markers along the way. The most important is meeting Jesus Christ through faith, by grace, in a personal way that brings us salvation.
The apostle Paul loved that word, using it repeatedly. In Romans, he wrote, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes…. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 1:16; 10:10). He told the Thessalonians, “For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Thessalonians 5:9).
Salvation is the act by which God saves us from sin, death, and hell.
If you aren’t sure you’ve passed this mile marker in your life, sincerely pray now, asking the Lord to forgive your sins. Tell Him you believe Jesus died for you and rose again. Give Him your whole life from this day. With your mouth, make confession unto salvation.
It’s a small prayer, but it’s a big moment!
Your salvation depends on what [Christ] has done for you, not on what you can do for Him.
Billy Graham.
