DEVOTION FOR 21ST SEPTEMBER 2025

God Is With You

‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:1-5‬ ‭KJV‬‬
“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
and patience, experience; and experience, hope:
and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.”

As Paul continued his discourse on faith, today’s verses reveal some important points.

1. We come to God to receive salvation through faith in His Word and promises.
2. Having done so, we are justified before God , that is, we are blameless before Him, with all our sins wiped away.
3. Because we have been saved, we have access to God’s grace, or unmerited favour.
4. We can stand firmly under the banner of God’s grace and rejoice,  because we have been reconciled to Him.
5. We do not complain and murmur when faced with tribulations. As a matter of fact, we can praise and glorify Him through these situations,  knowing that they strengthen our faith. We learn patience, experience and steadfast hope!

What a joy to know that God cares for us and is willing to wipe away our sins when we come to Him in true repentance!
What a joy to know that He is with us in every trial we may face!
What a joy to know that His peace surrounds us, and indwells us!
