Please read Titus 3.
Meditate on verses 4 -6.
But when
the kindness of God our Savior
and His
love for mankind appeared,
He saved
us, not on the basis of deeds
which we
have done in righteousness,
but
according to His mercy,
by the
washing of regeneration
and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
whom He poured out upon us richly
through
Jesus Christ our Savior.
Apart from
Jesus, you are a mess. Before being saved, you were foolish, disobedient,
deceived, and enslaved to sin. There was not one righteous deed you could do to
save yourself. But when the kindness of God your Savior and His love for you
appeared, He saved you according to His mercy, by the washing and renewing of
the Holy Spirit whom He poured out upon you richly through Jesus Christ your
Savior (Titus 3:3-6).
Salvation is
such a great news story. Why would God be so kind to you? Why would He pour out
His mercy on despicable mankind? Because God loves people, and He wants to save
them from their mess. Behave in a Godly way so others will be drawn to the
kindness and love of your Savior.
Pray Titus
3:1-2 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful
watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, help ________
and me to be subject to rulers, to authorities,
to be
obedient, to be ready for every good deed.
Let us
malign no one;
let us be
peaceable, gentle,
and show every consideration for all men.
For Your
cause, Jesus~”
