Meditate On
I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness
come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Galatians 2:21, KJV
Are You
Frustrating God’s Grace?
Consider carefully what the apostle Paul is saying in
today’s verse. He is effectively saying that if you are depending on your good
works, your doing and your ability to keep perfectly the Ten Commandments to
become righteous, then Jesus died for nothing! That’s what “in vain” means—for
nothing!
So don’t frustrate the grace of God by depending on your
good works to make yourself righteous and put God on your side. Jesus’ sacrifice
is more than enough to make you righteous. And when you know that you are made
righteous by Jesus’ work alone, regardless of your performance, you can be
confident that God’s unmerited favor is on your side. You can expect good to
happen to you today and every day!
