Redeemed from the Curse
Romans 10: 8b-11a
This is the message of faith that we proclaim: If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. With the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses, resulting in salvation. Now the Scripture says, “No one who believes on Him will be put to shame.”
Our faith overcomes the curse. If we believe God will zap us, punish us, or bring evil upon us because of something we did, we are living under the law and failing to receive the grace of the cross. To receive His grace, we must simply confess Jesus as Lord and believe in our hearts that God has raised Him from the dead. He is victorious and greater than anything you have done.
The sacrifice of the cross gives us eternal salvation, but it also gives us victory to live on earth. When the Devil comes against us with accusation, guilt, or discouragement, we need to exercise our faith instead of our fear. Jesus has redeemed us from the curse, and we need to acknowledge Him as Lord. Greater is He that is in us that he that is in the world. No weapon formed against us shall prosper. We are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. Those are His promises to us, and no one will be put to shame who believes Him. Amen and Amen!
Have a blessed day!
