“Our God is a God who saves” [Psalm 68:20(GNB)]
October 14
“Our God is a God who saves”. He saves a person from the penalty for sin. His atoning sacrifice on Calvary meets the demands of His justice and brings instant peace to all who seek refuge beneath it.
He saves man from himself. What glaring errors, calamitous misjudgments and irrevocable blunders I am capable of. But the Good Shepherd saves many a stupid sheep like me.
He saves those who trust Him from the wrath of man. What derision and persecution the world can heap upon the committed Christian! What barbed antagonism can be ranged against the child of God! But he need not fear for His God is One Who saves from this also.
And He saves from the Devil – the roaring lion who goes about seeking to devour us. The Father of lies can do nothing to alter the glorious truth that ours is a God Who saves.
