Right Now

Right now, what you need to hear is the truth, the Truth that sets free.

That living out the promises of God starts with faith alone (Hebrews 6:12), not your doing (Galatians 2:16), but your being, being alive to God in Christ Jesus (Romans 6:11)!

Right now. All that God is is available to you, by faith alone (Ephesians 2:8, Romans 3:22). You need to hear it.

That nothing you could ever do would grant you acceptance from God (Romans 3:20).  Because everything that Christ has already done has already made you acceptable to Him (Romans 4:25).  

Christ alone has done it all; He’s redeemed your soul and given you new life (2 Corinthians 5:17). You need to hear it. Because believing the Truth allows God to come flooding into, and flow out of, your life (John 7:38), where you will find your life is from Him alone.  And you find your life IS Him! Yes! It is no longer you who lives, but Christ Who lives in you (Galatians 2:20)!

For it is finished (John 19:30, Hebrews 10:12)!  The victory over sin is won! Christ has done it! He has redeemed you, His child, from the grips of death, from the grips of the power of sin over your life (Romans 6:6). It is done!

It’s what you need to hear. Right now, within the storm all around you, within the battle all within you. The truth. The Truth that sets free. Christ Jesus, Himself. The Truth that sets you free!

Right now, it’s what you need to hear!

“All this is from God,… For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” - 2 Corinthians 5:18, 21 ESV
