Deliverer and Redeemer


Titus 2:11-14

For the grace of God has come to bring salvation to ALL people, instructing us to give up ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives while we wait for out blessed hope - the appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for US to redeem us from wickedness and purify us.

As a read over these words over and over, I feel so loved.  One of my favorite ways to study the word is to look up other translations and even look up words in the dictionary.  This helps me grasp the word in different ways!

Grace: a free gift
Salvation: deliverance from penalty of sin
Savior: the One who saves, rescues, and delivers
Redeem: to recover possession

God has given us this free gift, deliverance from death and promise of eternal life with Him.  He calls us to live in a way that is of Him while we wait for Him - the one who saves, rescues, and delivers us.  He came to redeem us - to recover possession of us.  

He is the great deliverer and redeemer! He loves us so much! Bask in these truths today!

I love you!
