God's Free Gift Of Grace

 Those forty days that followed the Resurrection must have been wonderful for Christ's disciples, because the sorrow and anguish they felt when they thought the Savior was dead and buried (following the grueling time of His arrest, trial, and crucifixion), must have blossomed into a time to ecstatic gladness and joy as Jesus presented Himself to them alive and gave everyone His gracious reassurance that even the terrible act of denial cannot separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord!
 Christ's death was in payment for the sin of the whole world (for the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord), so that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life; this is God's Free Gift Of Grace. Christ's Resurrection broke the power of sin and death in the lives of all who would place their trust in Him, and Christ's commission remains the same today:  He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that we are part of the Body of Christ by faith in His death, burial, and Resurrection. Thank You that we have been entrusted with this  mission to go into all the world and preach the gospel to all we come in contact with. We pray that in Your strength, we will carry out this evangelistic mission in the places that You have put us, to Your praise and glory. Thank You that You are with us to the end of the age. In Jesus' name we pray, AMEN.
