He is so rich in kindness and grace that He purchased our freedom with the blood of His Son and forgave our sins.
It was by reason of sin that man was captivated, and we cannot be released from our captivity but by the remission of our sins. However, because of Jesus Christ, we are free and we have remission through His blood. The guilt and the stain of sin could not have been removed by anything other than the blood of Jesus. This great benefit, which comes freely, was dearly bought and paid for by Jesus Christ; and yet it is according to the riches of God’s grace. God was satisfied by Christ as our substitute.
You are no longer a captive of the enemy. You have been set free. You are no longer slave to sin and it's consequences. You have been paid for fully with the blood of Jesus Christ. God, who is so rich in kindness and grace, has forgiven you of all your sins, past, present and future. As you live freely, remember that God loves you but do not take the grace of God for granted.
Happy Easter. It is well with you and yours.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for the great sacrifice of Your Beloved Son. Because of Jesus, I am free and my sins have been forgiven. Because of Jesus, I am where I am today, with hope for a future. I pray that with the help of Your Spirit, I will continue to walk in the freedom and liberty You have purchased for me. In Jesus Name, Amen.
