Grace to All!

Thought For Today - July 22
 Grace to All!
By: Robert A Searles

    “Grace be to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.” Ephesians 1: 2.

  Grace, the unmerited favor of God, which God gives to those whom he chooses.  Thank God he has chosen me to be the recipient of his grace.  God has poured out his riches upon me at Christ’s expense, for he paid it all for me on Calvary’s cross. 

 “But he was wounded for ours transgression, he was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes we are healed.” Isaiah 53:5

    “According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.   To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.  In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace”. Ephesians 1:4-7

    Friend, do you have the peace of God ?  The peace of God comes as the result of  - redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: that in the dispensation of the fullness of time he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth, even in him: In whom we have obtained an inheritance, being ;predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel  of his own will: that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ”.  Ephesians 1: 7-12   

    Friend, if you are reading these lines, if you have heard the gospel message, you have also been chosen of God to be a recipient of his grace, to stand blameless before God, redeemed by his blood.  Salvation is free to all who will believe and receive.
