The Good News should be on our lips daily. The Good News is that we will not suffer for our sins if we are in Christ, because Jesus took the sins of the world onto Himself and suffered their consequences which is abondonment by God and death. So how does this result in Good News? Jesus rose from the dead, and died to both sin and death so that our sins may be forgiven and we can take on a new nature which is from Christ. The Father forgave once and for all, those who belong to the Son, because the Son was obedient to the Father, even death on the Cross. Now, our new life is by identification with Jesus so that we too may die to sin and take on newness of life.
Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank you for my forgiveness and the opportunity to serve You in faith and in truth. Let me never lose focus of the gospel and let it be shown by my conduct that I belong to You. In Your Name I pray Amen.
