As the Contemporary worship song puts it, “This is Amazing Grace!” God, knowing our rebellious hearts which are set against Him still wants to save us. He was still willing to die for us that we might live.
Yet, we, like those in Jerusalem, can resist. We can refuse to allow God to gather us up and give us life. O, that you would not resist. O, that you would receive His amazing grace.
It is because of His amazing grace that we are able to say, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” We need not fear His return for He has redeemed us, washed us clean, and called us His own.
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for saving me. I believe in You. Help me in my unbelief. Be with those who do not yet know You as their savior. Work faith in their hearts and may they not resist You that they may live.
Amen
