Devotional Reflection

Grace is a cool stream that brings salvation after sin and separation from God. The joy of salvation comes when we realize and accept that God has forgiven us, given us grace, and made us whole again. This is what it means to drink from the stream of grace. The joy of being saved lasts as long as we change the way we live and remember that we walk with God.

Prayer

God the Holy and Righteous, I long for Your salvation to cause an upsurge of joy similar to what I witness in the book of Acts. I ask that Your Spirit guide us into a new era of outreach, evangelization, and celebration. I ask for knowledge to understand and eyes to see those who are most receptive to the Gospel around me. I want to participate in Your ongoing work of salvation alongside You. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
