Don't Accept the Worst

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.  Ephesians 2:8

We receive the greatest miracle that we will ever receive in our lives by grace through faith.  It is not based on performance.  Although an individual may have lived a lifetime in sin, they are able to freely receive the gift of salvation by faith.  The same is true of the promises of God in our Christian walk.  Sometimes, people accept sickness, financial lack, and fractures in other areas of their lives because they believe that they deserve it based on their performance or falling short.  However, 2 Corinthians 5:19 teaches us that due to Christ’s death on the cross, God is no longer counting our sins against us.  That means that you do not have to accept sickness, financial lack, or problems in any area of your life because of feeling like you did not measure up in some way or attain some high standard.  If Satan can get you into condemnation or convince you not to receive the best of God because of performance he wins.  Conversely, if you refuse to get into condemnation and choose to receive the best of God through faith in God’s grace, then you win.  Choose to be a winner today and receive the best of God regardless of performance!
