Lord God Almighty, You alone are worthy of all praises and glory. Mighty in power. Splendid in beauty. Perfect in all things. Our hearts delight to worship You.

R-20 SAVED BY GRACE 藉恩得救

John 1:17; Romans 5:8, 20; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5-7; 2:11-12 (NKJV)

 

For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

 

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

 

Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,

 

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

 

not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

 

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,

Song of Response

Worship through Prayer

  1. Lord, to love and obey you all the days of my life is the desire of my heart. Yet I humbly admit that I cannot do this on my own. Empower me by Your Spirit to love You faithfully and to live victoriously in Your grace and truth. 

  2. Save me, Lord, from the Enemy. I find it hard to identify the cunning lies and misrepresentations of the enemy. Give me wisdom and discernment to know the truth clearly in order to live it out properly. I need Your constant help. 

  3. Father, I ask for a faithful heart that will be wholly committed to obey You no matter what the cost it demands of me. Give me inexplicable joy whenever I make a sacrifice to obey Your truth for You indeed are worthy to have my utmost devotion.
