Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
En la cara del pecado y la separación de Dios, la gracia es un manantial alentador que restaura la salvación. Sin embargo, el gozo de la salvación solo se encuentra cuando reconocemos y aceptemos el perdón, gracia y restauración que Dios nos ha otorgado—cuando bebemos de este manantial de gracia. El gozo de la salvación se mantiene en una manera de vivir cambiada y el reconocimiento que andamos con Dios.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
In the face of sin and separation from God, grace is God's refreshing stream that restores our salvation — making it existentially real to us. In our struggles with suffering, grief, and loss, only God's grace and his Holy Spirit ministering to our spirits can help us find a sustaining and willing spirit. This ongoing joy of salvation comes only when we realize and accept the forgiveness, grace, restoration, and Spirit-inspired refreshment God has given us — in other words, we get to drink from the stream of grace as the Holy Spirit wells up within us with heaven's living water to refresh us (John 7:37-39). So we can say with confidence that God will restore to us the joy of our salvation, and he will grant us a willing spirit to sustain us!
Mi oración
Padre Santo y Justo, anhelo el brote de gozo en tu salvación como veo en el libro de Hechos. Oro que tu Espíritu nos guie en otra época de crecimiento, conversión y celebración. Oro por la sabiduría para saber y los ojos para ver a los están abiertos al evangelio. Quiero ser coparticipe contigo en tu obra de salvación. En el nombre de Jesús oro, Amén.
My Prayer...
Holy and Righteous Father, I long for the outbreak of joy in your salvation as I see in the book of Acts. I pray that your Spirit leads us into another era of outreach, conversion, and celebration. I pray for wisdom to know and for eyes to see those around me who are most open to the Gospel — people with a willing spirit open to your salvation. I want to be a partner with you in your ongoing work of salvation, for I know that, as I do, I will get to experience again and again the joy of your salvation. And I will experience the Holy Spirit welling up within me as a useful vessel in your Kingdom. In Jesus' name, I offer myself to you as I pray. Amen.
