Devotion for September 26, 2024
Dear friends, this powerful verse from Romans speaks right to the heart of our faith. It's not about complicated rituals or secret knowledge. No, God has made it beautifully simple for us.
Think about it - our words have power. When we say "Jesus is Lord," we're not just repeating a phrase. We're declaring a truth that changes everything. It's like opening a door and inviting Jesus to take charge of our lives.
But it doesn't stop there. Our hearts need to match our words. When we truly believe that God raised Jesus from the dead, it shows we trust in His power over death itself. This isn't just accepting a fact - it's embracing a life-changing truth.
You see, salvation isn't something we earn. It's a gift God offers freely. All we need to do is reach out and accept it with our words and our hearts.
Today, I challenge you: Speak those words out loud - "Jesus is Lord." Let them ring in your ears. Then, take a moment to reflect on what you truly believe. Do you trust that God's power is greater than anything, even death?
This simple act of declaring and believing opens the door to a life transformed. It's the start of a journey with God that will change you from the inside out.
Remember, friends, God's love is for everyone. He's waiting with open arms. Will you take that step of faith today?
