IN THE BEGINNING…THE WORD
DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2012NEWNESS OF LIFE IN JESUS
Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all
men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came
upon all men unto justification of life. Romans 5:18
Satan knows that we have been given the right to life by
Jesus Christ; he just doesn’t want us to know that fact. Satan uses condemnation to keep Christians
from living. He flaunts the sin of man
in the Christian’s face, reminding us of his busy affairs. He wants to keep the Christian focused on the
condemned flesh so that there is no hope of newness of life. But we preach the gospel of Jesus Christ: his
death, resurrection and ascension.
Through one man, Jesus Christ, the free gift of grace has come. This grace trumps the condemnation of Satan. This grace abounds the more!
Today, Christ will uphold you and preserve you as you abound in
newness of life through Christ Jesus.
