DEVOTIONAL READING
Salvation rests on the unshakable foundation of God’s love.
Sin shattered the fellowship God intended between Himself and mankind and left us separated from His presence. Yet, love compelled Him to act to bring us back.
Through Jesus Christ, God reached out to restore intimacy, bringing us back into His embrace as His children.
The parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-24 paints this truth vividly.
The father was not waiting to punish his son; he was longing for reunion, watching with hope. And when the son showed up, the father received him with heart full of love and forgiveness.
That is the heart of God the Father towards us – not condemnation, but forgiveness and desire for fellowship.
Sin severed the bond, but His love has bridged the gap.
Every step of redemption was driven by God’s desire to restore us as His children.
This is the essence of salvation: God sent His Son to bear sin’s judgment of death, rise up from the dead in victory, and offer eternal life to all who believe – making them His children.
No one is beyond the reach of this love. The invitation remains open to “whosoever believes.”
