JULY 3

THE LIGHT OF SALVATION

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him.

1 JOHN 4:15

Only when we comprehend the great price God was willing to pay for our redemption do we begin to realize that something is horribly wrong with the human race. It must have a Savior, or it is doomed!

Sin cost God His very best. Is it any wonder the angels veiled their faces and were silent in their consternation as they witnessed the outworking of God’s plan? How inconceivable it must have seemed to them, when they considered the fearful depravity of sin, that Jesus should shoulder it all.

But they were soon to unveil their faces and offer their praises again. A light was kindled that day at Calvary—“the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God” (2 Corinthians 4:4). The Cross blazed with the glory of God as the most terrible darkness was shattered by the light of salvation. Satan’s depraved legions were defeated; they could no longer keep humanity in darkness and defeat.

Has the light of the gospel shone in your heart? And is it shining through you to others?

HOPE FOR TODAY

As believers, we sometimes grow casual toward the Cross. We forget that it should have been us bearing the shame and facing God’s wrath. Ask God to rekindle a fire within you for sharing the gospel.
