Romans 5:6, 8 ASV “For while we were yet weak, in due season Christ died for the ungodly. But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
We know by the Scriptures that we receive new mercies every day and that God loads us with benefits too, every day. Now, it would be a mistake for anyone to think that he or she deserves anything that they receive from God. The same way that God saves us while we were yet sinners, same way He gives us blessings we do not qualify for. I think that’s good news! Hallelujah!
As a matter of fact, long before you thought of doing anything to “earn” the goodness of God, He had already blessed you and provided for all that you would ever need in life! The only “works” a man needs to do is to become aware of what God has already done, and to have the faith to receive them. Period! 1 Corinthians 2:12 says that we received the Spirit of God that we might know the things that are FREELY given to us! Yes!
I repeat, there’s nothing else you need to do to receive anything from God! Romans 8:32 says again that “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him FREELY give us all things?” Hallelujah! When you know things, every thing you do for God or towards Him will be done because you love Him and are grateful to Him and not because you want to get something from Him! Some people have just been set free! Hallelujah!
