My soul, meditate for a few moments on what Jesus is to you, and what Jesus has done for you. Look back and glance at the circumstances in which He found you, and the deliverance which He wrought for you.
The DELIVERANCE which Jesus wrought for you. Jesus saved me!
He saved me from the roaring lion, who goes about seeking to devour me;
from my raging lusts, so that sin shall not have dominion over me;
and from righteous wrath. I, being justified by His blood, shall be saved from wrath through Him!
He saved me from death, the ‘king of terrors,’ depriving the monster of his sting, and giving me the victory over him!
See the cause of my happiness,
I have a Savior!
A Savior who is divine,
who has ever loved me;
and lived, labored, and died for me.
A Savior who pleads for me before the throne of His Father;
who is in His Father’s house, preparing a place for me.
A Savior who will soon come and receive me to Himself, that so I may be forever with Him!
Yes, I have a Savior, one who . . .
watches over me,
walks through the wilderness with me,
and rejoices to do me good.
Reader, have you a Savior?
Can you use these two precious words, “My Savior”?
Have you realized that you were lost?
And Have you fled to His cross?
Have you fallen into His arms,
and been cleansed by His blood, and clothed in His righteousness?
Do you possess His Holy Spirit?
Make sure work, O make sure work!
Eternity is just at hand!
Death is coming!
Judgment follows!
And then, an eternity of happiness or woe!
Your eternal all depends on having Jesus for your Savior!
No one can save you but Jesus.
Because No one can . . .
support you in sickness,
comfort you in death, or
give you victory over the grave, but Jesus!
Titus 3:4-5, “When the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy!”
