Commentary from Pastor Michael White:
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. – Rom 3:28

You are justified – or made righteous – by faith. Your salvation – complete and total forgiveness from sin, and right standing with God – has nothing to do with your deeds; it has everything to do with what Jesus has already done! Jesus already did all the work for you to make it to Heaven. All you have to do is participate in His plan!

You don’t have to work for God’s favor. You don’t have to try to be saved! Simply receive the salvation and favor Jesus already died for you to have. Pray, “Jesus, I believe in You!” – and believe it with all your heart – and it is done!

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. – Eph 2:8-9

Prayer:

Father, thank You that my salvation does not depend on me. Jesus died so that I could be free. Help me to receive everything He wants me to have – salvation, forgiveness, and healing – in Jesus’ name!
