Salvation

Some may ask what is salvation and how does it work?

The Bible speaks about salvation in many scriptures but one that stands out to me in this season is Ephesians 2:8-10 which states, “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” This means nothing we can do can earn us salvation because it is a gift from God. A gift that keeps on giving through the sharing of the good news and faith. A gift that is driven by grace and mercy.

Now, let us focus on being his workmanship and created for good works that have been prepared beforehand for us to walk in. Have you ever thought “why am I here?” or “there has to be more to life than this…” would you believe me if I told you that your conception was more than a man and woman coming together and creating life. What if I told you that you were conceived in the mind and plan of God before the foundation of this world. That there is a specific purpose God had in mind just for you. He thought of you milleniums before your birth. Crazy, right? I have felt and thought the same but the way events have unfolded in my life I am starting to believe in this crazy theory more and more. But, we will talk more about purpose in a later post.

For your salvation is not only for you but for the souls of others; that every circumstance or trial is meant to build on or introduce those who are called and chosen to this eight letter word that carries much weight. The best part is all you have to do is believe in, confess and accept Christ as your Lord and Savior. I do not know if you the reader are saved or not but chances are if you are reading this post God is inviting you to receive or return back to this great gift and follow an amazing blueprint designed specifically for you.
