Revelation 7:10(NKJV)
10and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the
throne, and to the Lamb!”
Did you ever think
of that? It belongs to God. It's His.
He owns it. He doesn't have to
share it with anyone. He can do whatever
he wants with it.
And He choses to
offer it to us. How cool is that? But here is the catch. Because it is His and He owns it, He gets to
set the terms of that salvation. We
don't get to pick and chose how we get our salvation.
It's not we each
find our own path to salvation. It's not
up to each individual. There is only one
way to get salvation and that is to do it God's way. And what is that?
Accepting Jesus as
your Lord and Savior. Have you done that
yet? It's pretty easy. God is willing to share salvation with you if
you are willing to do it His way. Why
not do it right now? Have a conversation
with Jesus. Share with Him what is on
your heart. "Dear
Jesus…".
I never did think of it like that. I always thought of it as my salvation, even though I know it is God's. He gives us the gift of salvation...it's not automatically ours. Thanks for the reminder!
