Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
Ephesians 2:9-10 NLT
I believe when God created us in the womb, He had already planned the works that we would do for Him as new creations in Christ, and that He had planned the people whose paths would cross with ours.
As our Promise for Today declares, our salvation is not a reward for good things we have done. He had all these good things lined up for us once we would choose to believe. Salvation is God's gift to us. The Truth is that apart from Grace, we would not recognize the good things of God. But praise Him for the awesome opportunity to be partnered with Him in Christ to bless His body of believers!
Prayer:
Father,
Thank You for saving us. Thank You for planning good things for us to do with You and for You. Give us even more spiritual insight so we don't miss doing one good thing! In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
