Day 248 – Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8, NIV Christ saved us not because of our good works. He died on the cross while we were still sinners. He loved us even before we knew Him. That’s how important we are in His eyes. He doesn’t look at our lapses. Instead, He sacrificed His life so that we would experience eternity with Him. So when you feel guilty because of your sins, humbly surrender to God. Come in His presence and let His love remind you that there is still hope. Embrace His grace and receive His…

Day 247 – Matthew 26:28
This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. Matthew 26:28, NIV This happened during the last supper. He said these words after He took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to His disciples. Jesus knew the suffering that He would go through, and it would cause His blood to bleed and His body to be in pain, but He acknowledged the power behind His suffering. He knew that it was for the benefit of everybody. He sacrificed His life so that we would be forgiven. Let’s not forget what Jesus did on the cross. Let’s not waste His blood.…

Day 243 – 1 John 4:9
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 1 John 4:9, NIv Our Heavenly Father sacrificed His son to save us from hell. Jesus came so that we might live through Him. We can’t reach the standards of God on our own. He is so holy and righteous. That’s why we need the precious blood of Jesus to cleanse us from our sins. We need His grace and forgiveness so that we will be accepted in the presence of God. We must not rely on our own works because only Jesus can redeem…

Even Jesus took some time to Pray to our Heavenly Father
Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. Mark 1:35, NIV We don’t have any excuse, we may think that we are too busy, but it’s not a good reason for us to skip our prayer time. Even Jesus, who is the Son of God, chose to humble Himself and prayed to our Heavenly Father while He was still here on earth. Who are we to rely on our own strength? We all need God’s love and power. We need His mercy and grace every single day. So don’t just call upon…

When Faith and Humility Collide
Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit came and fell at his feet. The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter. “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.” “Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs…

Remember the Miracles that God did and your Faith will be Strengthened
During those days another large crowd gathered. Since they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them home hungry, they will collapse on the way, because some of them have come a long distance.” His disciples answered, “But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?” - Mark 8: 1-4 This story happened after Jesus multiplied food for five thousand people. The disciples already experienced a very big miracle that our Savior performed, but at this moment, they…

When you Experience “Gethsemane Moments” with God
Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.” –Matthew 26: 36-38 Jesus experienced one of the most heart-breaking moments in His life while He was in Gethsemane.
